Body 078 Hotel Lobby
"Luban's class, the door of the sect. ”
Lu Lihai's expression was calm and proud when he said these two words, as if the name alone was enough to make him proud.
Xu Wen had never asked this question before, and certainly had never heard of the name.
But now, the name means something else to him......
Is it a coincidence? or is it true?
Xu Wen didn't know what the situation was like in the Banmen world until now, whether it was really the past of the world he was in front of him. We know too little about history, and we should strengthen our study in this area...... Xu Wen felt so again.
It seems that Xu Wen aroused Lu Lihai's interest, and on the next road, he was telling Xu Wen about the history of their class.
Originally established in the Ming Dynasty, Banmen was a very large association of craftsmen who built various buildings as their main business. At that time, almost everyone in the Jiangnan area was able to enter the class, and their reputation even spread to the capital.
Until now, many ancient gardens and ancient buildings left in the south of the Yangtze River were repaired by their class. Lu Lihai said a few casually, and Xu Wen found that even people like him who didn't know anything about these names had heard of them.
"Pretty good, now?"
As soon as Xu asked, he knew that he had asked the wrong question. Lu Lihai's expression sank almost instantly, and only after a moment did he shake his head and said with a wry smile: "Now, not now." In another ten or twenty years, there should be no more classes in this world. ”
"Why?" Knowing that there was no connection between the two, it was more likely, but as long as it was called by this name, Xu Wen couldn't help but care.
"There are many reasons, no money, no one and no work, how can it be clear for a while. Lu Lihai patted the steering wheel, pointed to the front and said, "Hey, it's here, it's there." ”
He clearly changed the topic, and it was not easy for him to ask again.
The place that Lu Lihai arranged for Xu Wen is good, and it is a well-known five-star hotel in the country.
The hotel is very modern, and some Chinese-style sets and facilities have been arranged to match the unique culture of Wanyuan City, which seems to be arranged as well as possible, but Xu Wen always feels a little nondescript.
Lu Lihai glanced over there a few times, sneered lightly, and then asked Xu to the front desk to check in without squinting.
The waiters at the front desk were very friendly and invited them to sit on the soft sofas, and the beautiful waitress brought a fruit plate.
By this time, it was not early, but the smiles of the service staff were still as warm as the rising sun.
Xu Wen carried Qiuqiu with him, and the hotel waiter specially arranged for cat litter cat food and cat litter, and sent it to his room along with the black cat, politely telling him to be careful not to let his pet get lost.
Xu Wen thanked him politely, and when he turned his head, he found that Lu Lihai was staring at the two waiters, and his mood seemed to be lower.
Lu Lihai left after completing the check-in procedures, and Xu Wen took the room card and didn't move for a while.
The waiter asked kindly, "Sir, is there anything else I can help you with?"
Xu Wen glanced to the side and shook his head.
The hotel is very quiet, there is a faint sound of music, it is the sound of the guqin, it is not like the sound of music, but like the water on the spring, natural and harmonious.
There is a book bar on the left side of the lobby, and there are many books on the wooden shelves, and the lights hit it, giving it a warm texture.
Since eating that fruit, Xu Wen has been in good spirits, and he is not sleepy until now.
He didn't go back to his room, but went to the book bar to look at the books on the shelves.
Half of the original foreign language editions, a small number of successful studies, a small number of picture albums, and some sets of relatively good-looking books that take into account both decoration and reading.
Wanyuan City has its own special culture, and the garden scenery is very famous. Therefore, there are many books on the shelves about the introduction of gardens, as well as various characteristic cultural books such as local calligraphy, painting and textiles.
Xu Wen thought for a moment, took a brand-new general history of China and began to read it.
History and cultural relics are not separated, from another point of view, cultural relics themselves are the carrier of history, many times historical facts are from the cultural relics to find clues, to be implemented.
Even Tianqing taught Xu to ask about history, and also taught him how to read history.
History is connected, both vertically and horizontally.
The economic base determines the superstructure, which in turn affects the development of the economy.
History is layered, and many clues are hidden in the details, but in fact, they have their own context, which in turn is presented in various cultural relics.
To appreciate treasure is to appreciate history, Lian Tianqing said to him.
To say a simple example, the Han Dynasty jade is many and exquisite, round carving, high relief, openwork and other crafts have increased significantly, and there is also the famous Han Eight Knife, Eight Knife Carved Cicada, simple and simple, the artistic value is very high.
However, in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties periods, jade production was obviously depressed, and there were very few jade artifacts handed down or unearthed.
What is it?
Because during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the north and the south were divided, wars were frequent, and the society was very turbulent. In such a social environment, jade, a high-end product usually used for ceremonial decoration, will naturally decrease.
At the same time, in addition to the hard rules such as technical materials, the most important thing to determine whether a cultural relic is real is to judge through various historical details.
For example, the Hutian kiln in Jingdezhen in the Yuan Dynasty successfully fired blue and white porcelain for the first time, and then the blue and white porcelain was officially staged. In other words, it was impossible to have blue and white porcelain before the Yuan Dynasty.
If someone says that he has blue and white porcelain from the Tang Dynasty and Song Dynasty in his hand, he can directly conclude that it is fake.
There are many other cases where a restorer can't even tell whether a piece of artifact is real or fake, then there is no need to restore it at all.
Xu Wen was originally quite interested in history, but after going to the Banmen World for a while, he felt a little addicted.
I don't know how long it took, Xu Wen closed the last page and raised his head a little stunned.
His memory is neither good nor bad, just at the level of ordinary people. But at this moment, he could clearly feel that he had memorized everything he had just read, as if it was engraved in his mind!
It's not my level...... Is that the effect of the red fruit as well?
The fruit was found by Qiuqiu, but it was clearly grown in that courtyard.
It's like a reward or a temptation to tell Xu Wen that if he goes back, there will be benefits.
Get back?
Not going back?
There is nothing to consider about this.
However, Xu Wen could clearly feel that this fruit had a time limit, and the effect was slowly waning.
So Xu Wen picked up the second book without hesitation - it can't be wasted.
Time gradually passed, Xu Wen finally felt a little tired, he yawned, rubbed his eyebrows, and lifted the stage.
An exaggerated voice sounded next to him, Xu Wen turned his head to look, and found a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy sitting on the sofa next to him, carrying a backpack, headphones around his neck, and a sportswear, was throwing his hand at him.
"The person who pretends to be forced in Xia Ping's life is none other than you, brother. Five-star hotels read history books and pretend to be very serious. This method of pretending to be forced is a bit strange, and I have learned and learned. ”
This young man is very good-looking, his expression is also very flexible, and his eyebrows are dancing very interestingly when he speaks.
Xu Wen read the book very rewardingly, and was in a good mood, and said to the child: "I'm not pretending, it's a unique secret recipe I discovered." ”
"What's the secret ingredient?"
"The level of people coming and going in five-star hotels is relatively high, and their brain waves, that is, mental power, will precipitate in the second half of the night. It stimulates your brain cells and makes them extra active. At this time, your memory will become very good, and you will basically remember it. ”
Xu asked one by one, and the kid was completely stunned.
"Really, did you lie to me?" he said exaggeratedly, then rolled his eyes and said self-righteously, "No, I'm going to test you." ”
He snatched the book from Xu Wen's hand, and said while flipping through the book, "I'll turn a page casually, ask a question, and you answer it to me." ”
"Okay, come!" Xu Wen said dryly.
