Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Wonderful Devil
Seeing Zhang Nan's situation, even Guan Xingquan felt strange, how much weight can a jar have?
Only then did Zhang Nan completely react from his stunned thoughts: he knew that there were "hidden goods" when this jar was unearthed, but because the scene was so spectacular, the devil forgot about it in a daze -- as soon as he opened the lotus leaf-shaped lid, there were layers of celadon plates neatly stacked inside the jar. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Zhang Nan doesn't need to count to know, a total of 99!
However, Guan Xingquan still counted them, and the small plates were packed separately: because there was still a lot of free space in the jar, if he didn't take it out, he was afraid of an accident if it shook too much during transportation.
Besides, it's fun to count, it's all good stuff!
As for the lid jar itself, the weight is also very heavy, because Kwan Xingquan found that the walls of the jar are very thick, reaching 2 to 2.5 cm!
It is extremely rare to find jars with such thick fetal bones, let alone the inside and outside of the jar covered with plum green glaze.
Seeing that Guan Xingquan was interested in the jar, Zhang Nan said: "The biggest feature of this jar is in the glaze: the glaze layer is thick, which is made by repeated glaze application many times, and the glaze color is soft and elegant, clean and shiny, green like jade, warm and moist like spring water, and has truly reached the ideal realm of "thousands of peaks and emerald colors" and "ice and jade" pursued by Chinese ceramics for thousands of years!"
"Baby?"
"A national treasure among national treasures!"
"Oh. ”
Guan Xingquan doesn't care if you are a national treasure or not, you still have work on your hands!
"Anan, it's easy to put it here, there are 99 in total, it's a bit interesting! Judging from the volume of this play, there are more than 99 small porcelain plates that can be placed. ”
In the past two days, there are still some small porcelain plates that have been cleaned up from the side, but they have not been put into the jar.
"Nine has a long-term meaning in traditional culture, and the so-called ninety-nine is one, which is to hope for long-term stability. These things are porcelain from the Southern Song Dynasty at the latest, when Xichuan was in the midst of war, and it was the main battlefield of the Song-Mongolian War for a long time. The people have been displaced, and the people in the war are probably particularly eager for stability.
Brother Guan, imagine the scene at that time: in the midst of the chaos of the war, a month of dark wind and high murder night, the whole family must flee immediately!
This batch of precious porcelain could not be carried, and the owner of the porcelain had to order someone to bury them.
In the face of sudden disasters and unpredictable futures, the owner was full of emotion! Although the time was pressing, he still carefully placed 99 small plates in the porcelain jar, hoping that the war would be quelled as soon as possible, the country would be peaceful, and the family would be reunited!
Unfortunately, he never had a chance to retrieve these treasures again.
Since then, these treasures have been sleeping underground for more than 700 years, and we have only dug them up to this day!"
Zhang Nan sighed with emotion: when touching these unearthed treasures that have lasted for nearly a thousand years, he seems to be able to talk to the ancients who buried them at the beginning!
This subtle feeling is something that most people who have played with antiques all their lives will not have, because they have never picked up an object from the soil with their own hands!
Forget about heirlooms, you just have a warehouse, and don't want to have that kind of fascinating and intoxicating feeling once!
I don't even feel like I bought an artifact that has just been unearthed from someone else!
Zhang Nan loves that feeling to death!
When an artifact is removed from the soil by himself, he seems to be talking to the ancients - people buried them thousands of years ago, and then the outside world has been in the sea for a long time, but they have been quietly underground, as if they have ignored time......
After a long time, it was like just a sleep, Zhang Nan took them out of the soil, just like the ancients put things here with their own hands, and then waited for themselves to pick them up.
It was a kind of spiritual transmission, without the hands of a third person, through the utensils held by his own hands, Zhang Nan seemed to be able to reach out and touch that distant era;
It seems to see the fluttering clothes and clothes of a thousand years ago......
If the objects had thoughts, would they have cheered or would they have preferred to continue to sleep?
Zhang Nan doesn't take drugs, but this subtle feeling is even more addictive than taking drugs!
At that moment, you can forget all your troubles!
Not for money, not for profit, it is to open a door of time and space, you can touch that era, touch the moment of that era!
This is Zhang Nan's magic!
......
Guan Xingquan's work in his hands didn't stop, his ears listened carefully, and when Zhang Nan finished speaking, he replied: "You should be a poet!"
"Huh, poet?"
Guan Xingquan won't feel the beauty of that kind of magic for the time being, Zhang Nan doesn't want to say more, everyone has a little secret.
In fact, Guan Xingquan also has a secret: for so many days, he didn't ask Zhang Nan why he came here, and he dug up so many national treasure-level cultural relics as soon as he dug up!
Others can't see it, but Guan Xingquan is sure that Zhang Nan is a magical person: there is something that even the old squad leader should not have noticed, Zhang Nan had something to hide from everyone in the second half of his trip to the United States.
Guan Xingquan saw it: After the old squad leader was demobilized, he was sent to a higher-level military unit for training, and from the details of people's speech and demeanor, he could see more things than others.
That old John is not the one who really holds the initiative in business negotiations at all - it is Zhang Nan who is in charge!
Although those businessmen and lawyers are all old Jianghu, coupled with Zhang Nan's steady and high-level disguise that does not match his age, everything seems to be normal.
But Guan Xingquan knew in his heart that the business negotiation was just a good director's drama!
It is estimated that the director is Zhang Nan!
But what's the matter?
Everyone has secrets, and I can see that Zhang Nan really likes antiques, not those black marketeers who only want to make a lot of money and smuggle abroad!
It's also very good for yourself, and it's still beneficial to the country to do clothing business exports, so why do you have to figure it out?
During the years by the chief's side, Guan Xingquan remembered the most important point: don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't listen to what you shouldn't hear, and don't know what you shouldn't know!
This is in his bones!
Now the old squad leader and Zhang Nan are their own bosses and relatives, and Zhang Nan and the squad leader will not do anything that endangers the country, so what do you love!
It's tiring to figure everything out.
......
When the last artifact was properly put away, the two of them backfilled the large soil pit.
Pulled the last cart of cardboard boxes back to the hotel - the room was full of cardboard boxes!
Early the next morning, the two spent another half a day collecting tents and moving things, and also made a mess of a large rape field near the big dirt pit!
A lot of the rape that had been dug up by the roots had been piled up on top of the backfill - it was raining, and the farmer brothers would never touch the rotting rape stalks these days.
"When will I say hello to the village chief?" Zhang Nan asked Guan Xingquan.
"I'll talk about it when the squad leader arrives, and I'll come here before I go. ”
Now the "research base" is still the territory of the two of them, and not saying goodbye will arouse the suspicion of the villagers, although there is not much problem in that case.
But a greeting: we're leaving. Then everything is fine!
