Chapter 128: Discarded Porcelain Tablets
Next, Zhao Tianming's identification speed is still very fast, but it is not as exaggerated as before, and it is controlled within a hundred cultural relics in an hour.
Even so, it takes a little more than half a minute to identify a cultural relic, which is fast enough for many people.
Because of the previous incident, no one dared to question him this time. And then, one after another to find alternatives, it was even more heartbreaking, so that some people did not dare to face Zhao Tianming.
Hong Jianzhen nodded secretly, admiring this young man more and more.
People are fast, but the work is serious, meticulous, and the quality is very high, not sloppy.
"Do you want to take a break?" I don't know how long it took, but I finally filtered all the artifacts on this floor.
Looking at the small pile of cultural relics piled up on the ground, all of which had been dropped, Hong Jian was so distressed that his chest hurt. On this floor alone, this one warehouse, more than 30 pieces have been dropped.
This is a very serious data, if, without Zhao Tianming's bold guess before, they would not have discovered this secret in a short time.
Just now, he called the old director, and the old director was also dizzy, and asked Wan Qingguo to check on the spot, no matter who he found, he didn't have to be polite or emotional.
In just a few hours, several people from the Provincial Cultural Relics Bureau were arrested, from the cultural relics maintenance personnel to the cleaners, which was really shocking.
Not to mention the old director, even Liang Yin also felt that the circle of the Provincial Cultural Relics Bureau was too chaotic, the vices accumulated over the years were shocking, and the whole case involved a wide range of cases, which was simply chilling.
Who would know that the department in charge of cultural relics in a province would be so rotten?
It is no wonder that the senior leaders of the province were furious and issued a death order to thoroughly investigate this case and directly take the Provincial Cultural Relics Bureau to open the knife. In order to avoid suspicion, the old director has not shown his face, did not plead, and asked the provincial department to let go of his hand to investigate.
Even, a distant nephew of the old director was controlled because he was involved in the case, and the old director did not say a word.
Such an old man is still respectable. It is also the reason why the province has been handing over such a large piece of the Cultural Relics Bureau to this old man for so long.
"Then rest for a while! What time is it?" Zhao Tianming was also dizzy.
"Three o'clock in the afternoon, rest for a while, eat something later. Try to filter the second warehouse tonight, and tomorrow will be busy for another day, and it should be about the same. Hong Jianzhen said.
Zhao Tianming looked at the pile of fakes on the ground and asked, "What to do with these?"
Hong Jianzhen is very experienced: "According to the normal procedure, there will be someone who will be scrapped and will not flow into the market again." ”
Zhao Tianming nodded: "That's good!"
After all, there are several super high imitations, really ordinary people can't see it, experts are not sure about that, if it enters the market, how many people will be pitted?
"There are a total of thirty-seven pieces in this layer, and according to the market price, there is a loss of tens of millions of values, these people are really crazy. Director Hong smiled bitterly.
"It has also been committed for many years, and this amount is also a drop in the ocean for the cultural relics in the warehouse, they are just lucky, and strange. Zhao Tianming said.
It's like many years ago, a senior financial official in Hu Province embezzled hundreds of millions of yuan, and responded in court: Hundreds of millions of dollars pass through my hands every day, and I don't keep a little bit, and I can't help myself.
Zhao Tianming thought for a while, and then continued: "Also, how is the treatment of your Cultural Relics Bureau? If the treatment is too low, I also suggest that the treatment be raised." These are all treasures, what will they think if they are not treated well? Not everyone has such an ideological consciousness as Director Hong. ”
Hong Jianzhen was slightly surprised again, although the salary of their Provincial Cultural Relics Bureau is not low, it is similar to other professions and other units, and it is not much higher.
Perhaps, it is precisely this reason that makes some people think crookedly.
Zhao Tianming is right, most people are still laymen, what they care about is their own lives, how to make themselves and their families live better.
So, there are people who take risks.
He nodded slightly, this suggestion, he will also mention to the old director, very constructive.
After saying that, someone got a pile of debris from the corner and prepared to clean it out along with the fakes on the ground.
Those fragments, in fact, have no value. Archaeology will always encounter a lot of incomplete cultural relics, and the cultural relics department will naturally not be less contacted.
Some things are brought back all at once, and then you pick and choose those that are still valuable and those that are not. For example, some of these fragments will not be thrown away if they are not very damaged, or if they are of great historical value.
"Director, this was all piled up two weeks ago, and I didn't have time to clean it up. The man said to Director Hong.
Director Hong nodded: "Okay, it's all checked, right? If there is no problem, you can clear it out." ”
There are some things that there is really no need to keep, but a waste of national financial resources. Maintenance is a long-term job, and it is not simply taken back and piled together.
"Yes, I'll move out right away. The man said very simply.
However, Zhao Tianming always felt that there was something wrong with this person, and there seemed to be some secret hidden under his eyes.
This made Zhao Tianming couldn't help but look at the pile of fragments, there were fragments of pottery, there were also fragments of porcelain, various colors, very miscellaneous, dazzling.
"Are they all useless?" asked Zhao Tianming.
The man was stunned for a moment, and replied, "Yes! A month ago, I fished it from a sunken ship." The ship, probably in the face of strong winds and waves, loaded with porcelain, few pieces are intact. ”
At first, it was the fishermen who discovered that fishing in the waters of the bay often scraped some porcelain shards, which soon attracted the attention of their cultural relics department.
Sure enough, they found an ancient shipwreck loaded with thousands of pieces of porcelain. Unfortunately, most of the porcelain was broken, which made them feel distressed for a long time.
Director Hong also had a little impression of the shipwreck, and he said to Zhao Tianming: "That ship, there is too much porcelain. It's a pity that it's basically all broken, it's a pity, it's a pity. In particular, I also found a piece of Yuan blue and white, which can be broken into several pieces. ”
At present, the fragments are still being restored, and several porcelain restoration masters in the province are busy.
Yuan Qinghua, who almost does not understand cultural relics, and people who do not play antiques have also heard of how precious it is, and the whole world knows how precious it is, and once set a new auction record for ancient Chinese artworks.
"Can I take a look?" asked Zhao Tianming.
A trace of panic flashed in the man's eyes, and he pretended to be calm: "It's all through our rigorous inspection, Mr. Zhao......"
Before he finished speaking, Hong Jianzhen smiled and said, "Just look at it, it's just a bunch of fragments." ”
Zhao Tianming smiled and nodded, then ignored the man and leaned down to check.
