Chapter 86: Reinventing Up and Down for Five Thousand Years

Zhou Xuan mentioned several national-level key archaeological projects, but Gu Yu didn't hear any opportunity for a while.

Who made him a liberal arts idiot, completely indifferent to archaeology, history and the like, and he didn't accumulate this knowledge on Earth in his previous life.

Therefore, after eating, drinking, afternoon tea, and chatting, Zhou Xuan slapped his ass and flashed people.

Gu Yu thought that this matter was over, and he didn't take it to heart, he just wanted to rest and relax for a few days, and cultivate his relationship with Ma Yiyi.

"Rest for yourself, I'll go back and learn about the frontiers of archaeology in this area and check the papers. Ma Yiyi was a little awkward, broke free from Gu Wan's entanglement, and also had to leave.

Ye Di was also a little surprised when he saw this, and said politely: "Why don't you leave after dinner?" Your sister hasn't gotten off work yet, and there will be no one when you go back." ”

"Thank you, Auntie, I have such a temper, and I have things I don't understand, so I have to understand them. Ma Yiyi explained politely.

Ye Di no longer insisted, and personally sent Ma Yiyi out, instead of letting her son with low emotional intelligence go.

Ye Di also seized the opportunity to explain to Ma Yiyi: "Playing with this kid may not be very motivated, you still have to know more about him." Be mentally prepared to follow him around. ”

Ma Yiyi smiled: "I know what kind of person he is, to tell you the truth, I also like the strong, and I am too lazy to talk nonsense with people who have no ability." But...... Play is really a person with great ability, he just disdains to spend his energy on making money, so it seems that there is no match for doing things, relying on his temperament. ”

Hearing what Ma Yiyi said so eloquently, Ye Di breathed a sigh of relief: "Then you fully understand him, then I won't worry." ”

Ma Yiyi: "A first-class genius should change the world, how can you waste your energy on making money." Just because he doesn't bother to do it doesn't mean that he can't do it, with me, I'll just help him worry about those vulgar things. ”

With that, Ma Yiyi took a taxi and left.

The next day, it was supposed to be Valentine's Day, and Ma Yiyi was in Ark City, so she was supposed to have a good get-together with Gu.

However, in the end, the two just had lunch together, chatted for a few words, and then talked about the frontier harvest of archaeology that Ma Yiyi had struggled for half a day and midnight the day before.

Gu Yu didn't have much interest in the topic, so he broke up after eating.

Parting, Ma Yiyi said that after the New Year during the winter vacation, she may have to go far away and go to Jianghai City or the capital for a few days, the purpose is, of course, to help Gu Play find opportunities.

Gu Wan didn't ask much, just asked if there was anything he could help with, and then gave Ma Yiyi some funds, and asked Dean Ding to open a letter of introduction, so that Ma Yiyi could find relevant scientific research units to cooperate.

Then, the two went back to their respective homes for the New Year.

……

More than ten days have passed in a flash, and the winter vacation is almost over in a blink of an eye.

Gu Yu recuperated his spirit at home, and took advantage of these days to completely write out the popular science monograph "The Order of Time" that Aunt Li asked him to write at the end of the previous period.

He threw the manuscript to the tool man's sister to polish and proofread it, and then he could take it and submit it.

Three days before the start of school, Ma Yiyi suddenly came back, and I don't know where she went and what research she did during the week.

However, the harvest is very rich.

Ma Yiyi said straight to the point:

"I went to the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Jianghai City, and I also ran to the National Museum in Beijing. Thank you for opening a letter of introduction to Dean Ding, and you have seen a lot of treasures and confidential documents. It's really a lot to gain. ”

Gu Yu was directly confused.

This girlfriend is amazing, so executed.

I haven't seen her for just ten days, Ma Yiyi looks a little darker and thinner, it is estimated that there are only 80 pounds left, the whole person is dusty, but the skin is still very smooth, the eyes are very bright, and there is a strange light brought by culture.

In fact, if Gu Play has the perseverance to investigate and learn, he can do it.

But the key is that he looks down on liberal arts students in his bones, he has been a scumbag of liberal arts for two lifetimes, and the database in his brain is also full of natural science materials, and he doesn't even have a fart of liberal arts content, so he is in Baoshan and doesn't know how to open it.

"Then you talk about it, I'll listen to you. Gu Yu adjusted his mentality and put on a very solemn look.

Ma Yiyi took out a few photocopied documents from the bag she carried, and there were a lot of handwritten notes and handwriting on them, and then began to explain:

"It's also your luck, the business opportunity I found this time happens to be the archaeological project that the first national Tianzi is willing to spend money on, the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties project.

Before, when Brother Zhou introduced the outline of the project, you should also know that at present, Western scholars are hostile to China and slander our ancient civilization, mainly in two ways, one is that they think that the Xia Dynasty does not exist, and the other is that the precise date of attacking us is only 841 BC and the first year of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

Xia Dynasty's matter, even if the new C14 measurement method is used, there is no solution, so let it go for the time being. However, at the point of accurate chronology, I found that as long as there is a more accurate C14 identification technology, it can definitely be pushed forward, at least the entire Zhou Dynasty can be covered.

If this problem is solved, at least one-third of the purpose of the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties project will be achieved, which is a great boost to national cohesion and cultural pride.

Gu Yu felt that things were getting more and more interesting, and asked sincerely from the bottom of his heart: "Then what is the specific entry point?"

Ma Yiyi smiled confidently, flipped out a copy of a photo, Gu Play took it and took a look, it was a bronze that he didn't recognize.

"What's the mystery of this thing? It looks like an ancient rice cooker. ”

Ma Yiyi listened, couldn't help biting her upper lip with her lower teeth, blew out, and stirred the air bangs in front of her forehead:

"This is a very important artifact, and in the future, after we discover its further significance, it may even become the most important first-class national treasure!

Also, this is not some kind of rice pot! This kind of thing is called 'Gui'? Do you know what 'Gui' is? The Son of Heaven's food utensils are nine tripods and eight cooks, and the princes have seven tripods and six cooks. The one who boils the soup and puts the meat is called Ding, and the one who puts the beans in the rice is called Gui. ”

(Note: 簋, pronounced "ghost")

Gu You: "Oh, I know, just treat the people of the South China Sea to eat 'Nine Great Gui', that's the word, right? Isn't that still a rice cooker, oh not a charcoal rice cooker! Okay, okay, let's talk about the point, what's wrong with this Gui." ”

Ma Yiyi held back the fire and patiently explained: "This piece is not an ordinary Gui, it is called Ligui, it was excavated in Guanzhong Province 20 years ago, the bronze itself is nothing, the important thing is that there is an inscription at the bottom of it-

I asked people who are engaged in bronzes, the valuation of bronzes, the general process is still secondary, the key depends on the age and inscription, with a word of bronze, the value can be twice as expensive as the same age, the type without words. And this terrible ghost has an inscription of thirty-three words!

And by measuring the precise year of this artifact, we can directly decipher the year in which the dynastic change of the Shang and Zhou dynasties took place! That is, the precise chronology of China's history will be pushed forward by at least two hundred years compared to the current state-of-the-art level!"
