Chapter 182: Amazing Skills

Wu Duo didn't expect to come to visit Li Yiyan and be "tested".

Before coming, he focused on two points.

The first point is that Shen Yunzhou will talk about "Wu Shixin", which he can completely deal with, just like he dealt with just now. Afterwards, everything had to be decided by the old rich man.

In fact, the triple identity of the old rich man, Wu Duo only knew "Wu Dazhi" before, but now he knows "Wu Shixin". There is also a name like "Qi Liudou" and "North Seven and South Six", "Wu Qixing", he is still kept in the dark.

The second point, Wu Duo expected that Shen Yunzhou might say about Mi Fu's bamboo and stone map, but Shen Yunzhou didn't say it.

As the so-called husband is not guilty, Wu Duo naturally doesn't want to make a noise. But he is a junior after all, and it is not appropriate to rashly remind Shen Yunzhou not to make a noise.

However, judging from Shen Yunzhou's expression, he is very aware of this, and he is not expected to make a noise; he probably may tell Li Yiyan quietly, but now he didn't tell it in front of Wu Duo, just expressing an attitude.

has been thinking about these two points, so Wu Duo didn't expect Li Yiyan to take out something to take the school exam.

It doesn't matter if it's a "test" like this, who let us have a unique job.

Li Yiyan took out the brocade box, which was the size of a shoebox, and he took the brocade box and put it on a square table covered with tablecloth next to the sofa.

There was nothing on this table, and it was very abrupt on the side, Wu Duo guessed. It may be a table dedicated to watching things, placed in the living room, more like a visitor.

There were no chairs next to the square table, so Wu Duo, Ning Shuang and Shen Yunzhou got up and stood together to watch.

What came out of the brocade box was a bronze knight.

This bronze jue is about 18 centimeters high, the ornamentation is very simple, the flat body has a flat bottom, the "flow" is relatively wide, the "tail" is relatively short, and the three legs are not too high.

Wu Duo doesn't know much about bronzes, but he has seen some basic information.

As far as he knows, the Xia Dynasty had a bronze jue, the Shang Dynasty developed, the late Shang Dynasty tended to mature, and in the Western Zhou Dynasty, the ornamentation was much more complicated, and the proportion of "flow" and "tail" was basically the same.

Jue was the earliest wine vessel, the "flow" is the mouth that drinks wine, and the "tail" is the extension of the corresponding other side.

Therefore, it seems that the bronze jue taken out by Li Yiyan should be from the Shang Dynasty, and it is not a late period, but a middle period or even earlier.

This bronze jue is covered with green rust, but it is very intact and has no cracks.

Shen Yunzhou's specialty is in ancient calligraphy and painting, but after all, he has accumulated a lot of archaeological practice, and after looking at it for a while, he showed a strange look.

In his opinion, this is a bronze jue in the middle of the Shang Dynasty, and it has not been unearthed in these years, and it must have been unearthed for at least a few decades. There is nothing difficult about this thing, but he felt strange when he used it to test Wu Duo.

However, Shen Yunzhou immediately changed his mind, perhaps, Li Yiyan was a simple test, so that Wu Duo could answer it smoothly, and everyone was happy, it was nothing more than a small show before dinner.

Ning Shuang and Shen Yunzhou had similar views.

Since Li Yiyan said that it was to test Wu Duo, they naturally had no words.

"I'd better get started!" Wu Duo smiled.

To their ears, Wu Duo seemed to have understood, and in order to show respect, he started to further confirm. But in fact, Wu Duo didn't dare to be careless in the face of Li Yiyan's examination, and wanted to get the most accurate answer directly.

As a result, after Wu grabbed his hand, his brows couldn't help frowning.

Because, the information he got and the time of its launch, was 26 A.D.!

Well, this is a bronze jue cast in the early Eastern Han Dynasty!

Judging from the appearance, it is obviously the bronze lord of the Shang Dynasty······

And that's not the most critical thing.

The most important thing is that the Eastern Han Dynasty no longer casts bronze knights.

There are many wine vessels in the bronzes, and Jue is one of the earliest shapes, which was available in the Xia Dynasty.

Among them, the bronze lord is not available to anyone, it is exclusive to nobles. The jue used by ordinary people is mostly pottery. Therefore, the bronze lord later became a ritual and a symbol of status. In the Western Zhou Dynasty, the title came from this, and the rank of the prince and the prince also appeared.

However, the Bronze Lord has an upper and lower age limit.

During the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the bronze jue gradually disappeared, and it was completely no longer minted by the end of the Qin Dynasty at the latest, which can also be proved by the historical materials of the Western Han Dynasty.

However, although this bronze jue was cast in the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was the shape of the Shang Dynasty; in other words, the greatest possibility is that the Eastern Han Dynasty made a fake bronze jue, which was counterfeited in the Shang Dynasty and passed off as a "cultural relic" in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Is there a fraud of cultural relics so early?

This ······ It doesn't seem impossible······

However, Wu Duo didn't know what to say. Because, he really couldn't find evidence that could explain that it was a "fraud" of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Don't talk about him, this Eastern Han Dynasty forged the bronze lord of the Shang Dynasty, there is no problem with the shape and ornamentation; although the time of entering the soil is not as long as that of the Shang Dynasty, it is also about 2,000 years long, and there is nothing wrong with the rust color; even if it is Shen Yunzhou, it is also regarded as a bronze lord of the Shang Dynasty who opened the door widely.

"How's that?" Li Yiyan smiled slightly, "Is it laborious?"

"It's a lot of work. Wu Duo nodded.

Ning Shuang encouraged softly on the side at this time, "Be bold and say it." ”

She was afraid that Wu Duo would think too much, and she obviously saw the bronze lord of the Shang Dynasty, but she was worried that Li Yiyan would not use such a simple thing to take the school test, so it would be counterproductive to think about it deeply.

In fact, Li Yiyan just doesn't use simple things!

Wu Duo pondered for a while, and finally opened his mouth, "This bronze jue is the shape of the Shang Dynasty, but I feel that it does not have the charm of the Shang Dynasty, and it always feels like a later imitation, but the time of imitation may also be very early, the Han Dynasty······ Mr. Li, do you think it's possible?"

When Li Yiyan heard this, he couldn't help but be taken aback, and he didn't say anything for a long time.

Shen Yunzhou was also stunned for a moment, how could he come to such a conclusion? This Xiao Wu, is he being smart but being mistaken by being smart?

Ning Shuang was also stunned, "This?"

"How did you see that?" Li Yiyan took a deep breath and spoke slowly.

"Mr. Li, strictly speaking, I can't see it. Again, the bronze lord of the Shang Dynasty, although the shape is simple, but always feel that there is a special charm; this one, it seems to be a little less meaningful, but it is not like a few fake peak dynasty things. Moreover, it seems to have a bit of a Han Dynasty bronze feeling, although there is no bronze lord in the Han Dynasty. ”

"Feel······ Maybe it's the highest level of identification, right?" Li Yiyan sighed, "I'm engaged in archaeology, and I always tell an empirical story about everything. This time, although you can't show evidence, you are right!"

"Huh?" both Shen Yunzhou and Ning Shuang couldn't help but exclaim.

"Teacher, you don't seem to have taken out this thing before?" Shen Yunzhou immediately asked.
