Chapter 661 The First Major Case of Tomb Robbery

Xiao Peng finally met Director Wang in the imperial capital, not to receive his apology, but to invite him to see the collections of the Forbidden City, some of which had not been exhibited to the public.

"Boss Xiao, in fact, we have a lot of collections here that have not been exhibited to the public, just like the jewelry on your Pasiala necklace, although it is placed here, it is not a good time to exhibit it at present, do you understand. Curator Wang led the way and introduced.

Xiao Peng shrugged: "These Yin San dare to come and let them find me, what the hell." They also had a share of the Eight-Nation Alliance!" During the Eight-Nation Alliance, there were not many people in the Eagle Country's invading troops, and most of them were Indians. After all, at that time, India III was a British colony----- a group of doglegs.

"Lu Ya, I'll show you a woman's favorite thing in a moment. Xiao Peng said to Lu Ya behind him, but Lu Ya snorted coldly and turned his head to ignore him.

That's right, Xiao Peng offended Lu Ya again, the reason is really simple, Xiao Peng put coriander in all dishes, and Lu Ya is a member of the famous 'Anti-Coriander Alliance'.

There are only two kinds of people on earth, one who eats coriander and the other who does not.

For those who love coriander, coriander is simply an indispensable delicacy in the world, to use the famous joke on the Internet to describe it: 'When I'm hungry, I just want a bowl of beef ramen, no beef, no ramen, just coriander!' but for those who hate coriander, the taste of coriander is 'If the plant can pee, that's the taste of coriander', 'Cilantro tastes like a heavily contaminated rat crushed with a meat grinder'.

According to statistics, 21 percent of East Asians, 17 percent of whites, and 14 percent of blacks hate coriander! For them, coriander is the devil's fart and Satan's armpit odor.

But cilantro lovers are even more terrifying, and there is even a coriander restaurant in Tokyo where all the dishes are cooked with coriander, which is simply a paradise for coriander. There are even hot spring owners who put bundles of coriander into their own hot springs to create 'coriander hot springs', and the smell of coriander fills the entire bath. These are not the best, the most bullish is a hot pot restaurant in the country, there is a coriander set directly, four kilograms of hot pot ingredients, coriander accounts for three kilograms, do you want to eat meat?

A while ago, the price of coriander skyrocketed, and countless people from the coriander party were going crazy. Fortunately, the price came down quickly, otherwise the coriander party would have rioted。。。。。。

For the coriander party, what is the difference between people living in the world and not eating coriander and salted fish? What coriander shower gel and coriander perfume, only you can't think of it, and we can't do it without us.

Coriander is such a peculiar object, you love to die if you like it, and hate it to death if you hate it.

However, the taste of this coriander itself really doesn't have much to do with it, and the disgust for coriander actually comes from a gene encoded as OR6A2 in the human body, which causes the human body to be sensitive to aldehydes in coriander. When such a person eats coriander, he immediately thinks of soap in the bathroom, and people who do not have this gene can accept the taste of coriander and find it delicious and delicious.

Unfortunately, Lu Ya is the only anti-coriander party in the family, which caused Xiao Peng to make a large table of dishes and eat and drink well with the second elder, but Lu Ya could only watch everyone eat pitifully.

This also led to Lu Ya's opinion of Xiao Peng very much, there was no way, Xiao Peng had to owe Lu Ya ten meals without coriander, which made Lu Ya's mood better.

"Xiao Peng, didn't Curator Wang just say something dug out of the soil, why are you so angry?" Lu Ya looked at this way, Xiao Peng didn't give Curator Wang much of a good face, and asked curiously.

Xiao Peng said: "Because of this sentence, you can directly position my things as 'illegal', confiscation is light, and you can even directly arrest me and sentence me!" After saying this, Xiao Peng glared at Director Wang fiercely, and Director Wang looked embarrassed.

Lu Ya was puzzled: "Most of the cultural relics are dug out of the soil, right? You see that there are so many things sold in the Pan Jiayuan, there must be real ones, so how can they be sold?"

Xiao Peng looked at Curator Wang: "Then you have to ask Curator Wang, he is an expert." ”

After hearing this, Director Wang hurriedly explained: "Well, Miss Lu, the matter is like this, after a cultural relic is stolen and unearthed, it often has to be sold overseas through several levels of market, which is not only a process of value-added, but also a process of 'legalization', of course, 'legalization' does not mean that the cultural relics are really legal, but that its provenance is difficult to trace." ”

"How can this 'illegal' become 'legal'?" Lu Ya asked.

Director Wang replied: "This is like the game of communication that we all played when we were children, a sentence passed on by ten people's mouth, and in the end it was unrecognizable, the cultural relics were resold again and again, the transaction chain is longer and longer, and the source is more ambiguous, generally speaking, tomb robbers will not leave the stolen cultural relics around, and they must hurry up to make a move, so as not to have a long night dream, or sell it to the so-called 'palm eye', let them sell it directly to the antique market in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, or sell it to the antique market in the second and third tier cities." This way to avoid risks. ”

"And nowadays tomb robbers rarely fight alone, most of them are gangs. Production, supply and marketing, the general tomb robbery gangs, all have a fixed family to buy the stolen cultural relics, these cultural relics, a channel into the cultural relics market. ”

Lu Ya was still puzzled after hearing this: "What if those cultural relics are of high value? Just like Xiao Peng's Gang Pei, it will definitely be a sensation when it is brought to the market, then someone will definitely seriously trace the source, right?"

Curator Wang nodded after hearing this, and continued to explain: "You have a good question, ordinary stolen cultural relics can be finished in the domestic cultural entertainment market after a few turns, and those with higher value must go abroad to gilt a layer of gold." In addition to the ordinary cultural relics market, another channel is to smuggle them out of the country. ”

After hearing this, Lu Ya asked: "This is a very heavy criminal law, right?

Curator Wang sighed and continued: "In the face of huge profits, many people are blinded. Although the "Criminal Law" and the "Law on the Protection of Cultural Relics" in China have strict laws and regulations to punish the smuggling of cultural relics, there are still many people who know the law and break the law; in the past few years, the four customs have seized 11,512 pieces of cultural relics in one day with a sampling rate of 5 percent! If we calculate according to the 100 percent inspection ratio of all customs and 365 days a year, how much will Chinese cultural relics be lost every year?

"So many?" Lu Ya gasped after hearing this: "That's too much, isn't it?, how did they do it?"

"Who says it's not?" Director Wang sighed and said, "It is precisely because of this that I saw Boss Xiao's son Gang Pei being blocked by lard, but Boss Xiao, I really don't want to see fewer and fewer treasures in our Huaxia to do this." ”

Xiao Peng nodded: "It's over, so there's no need to mention it again." "To say that the old curator is actually quite cute, at least not for selfishness, the standard old pedant.

Curator Wang turned his head and replied to Lu Ya's question just now: "Actually, the method is very simple, that is, to declare customs in the name of replicas. The identification of cultural relics so far is still a work with extremely high technical requirements, and sometimes even authoritative experts cannot identify the authenticity of cultural relics, just like there is a treasure appraisal program, if the appraisal is fake, the thing will be smashed, and now it can not be done, it is because of the identification mistake that the real one is smashed and eaten as a fake! Those experts can identify mistakes on the spot, and those real cultural relics can be identified when they reach the circulation gate, how can they be identified? And once these cultural relics leave the country, if they want to be recovered, it is almost an impossible task. ”

Lu Ya thought for a while: "No, Director Wang, what you said is not right, if those national treasures go abroad, they will definitely be noticed, how can this be whitewashed?"

Curator Wang replied: "You are right, the so-called tree is a big move, even if such a national treasure-level cultural relics are successfully transferred abroad, they cannot be immediately put on the mainstream auction house to cause trouble, in the words of the cultural relics resale industry, it is called hiding in the water, which means that these cultural relics should be hidden for a period of time without coming forward." Then, in the process, the preparation of archives for these artifacts is generally blamed on the war, because there are too many artifacts that have been exported abroad during the war. There is no detailed list in China, which is a perfect loophole. Then put these cultural relics on some small-scale auction houses with low thresholds outside Europe and the United States for auction, and then auction them back by their own people, and begin to establish an 'auction record file', dive for a few years, and then take it out, and transfer it to another country to auction, the process is repeated several times, each time the specifications of the auction house are appropriately improved, and the cultural relics have a 'well-circulated archive', or a' After this process, the stolen cultural relics not only doubled in value, but also turned into 'overseas lost cultural relics', luring wealthy Chinese businessmen to bid at high prices. ”

After hearing this, Lu Ya pondered for a long time before saying, "Those people are simply too bad. ”

Xiao Peng made Lu Ya's comment laugh and cry: "What you said, can a person who can do things like digging people's ancestral graves be good people?"

Curator Wang shook his head: "Actually, there are people who are even worse. ”

When Lu Ya heard this, she hurriedly asked, "Who else is worse than them?"

Director Wang said: "In the process of whitewashing cultural relics, there is another institution that plays an important role, and that is the museum. Now the museum has become one of the biggest ways to launder cultural relics for Chinese tomb robbers. And it's not just folk museums that participate, but also some official museums. Of course, most museums do not directly contact tomb robbers, but buy them through second-tier channels such as 'palm eyes', after all, museums have strong financial resources, many social connections, and many reselling channels, which is indeed the best choice for tomb robbers to launder cultural relics. And those experts who have been dealing with cultural relics for a long time are very clear about the origin of these cultural relics, some cultural relics are new at a glance, everyone knows it, but don't say it, just like Boss Xiao's son Gang Pei, you can see at a glance that it has just been unearthed, but this thing can't be broken, if you pick the matter and even report it according to the law, the supply will be cut off in the future, who will do business with you?"

Listening to Director Wang's words, Xiao Peng was stunned: "Director Wang, aren't you alarmist, right?"

Curator Wang nodded and said, "Boss Xiao, what am I lying to you for, don't you know the first major case of tomb robbery after the founding of the People's Republic of China?"

In fact, when it comes to the first major case of tomb robbery in China, first of all, Qin Shi Huang, he fooled the Chinese historians, he made everyone think that the Chinese culture and the nation are south of the Great Wall, in fact, this is a big mistake, archaeologists in the north of the Great Wall, found the Chinese nation's 'older hometown', that is, located in Chaoyang City, Liaoning Province, Niuheliang Hongshan Cultural Site.

There, people found about 5,500 years ago large altars, goddess temples and 'pyramid' type buildings, the history of Chinese civilization has been improved by more than 1,000 years, known as the 'new dawn of oriental civilization', here is comparable to the Egyptian pyramids, Asan Hengjue Daluo ancient civilization of the world discovery, since 1988, has been listed as a national key cultural relics protection unit.

Different from the pottery that is generally buried in Neolithic tombs in the Central Plains, there are a large number of jade artifacts buried in the ancient tombs of Hongshan culture, in addition to the common jade bracelets and jade bibs, there are also jade turtles, jade phoenixes, jade pig dragons, etc., which can be called treasures. In the past, people have always thought that the Yellow River Basin and the Yangtze River Basin were the source of Chinese history, and the Hongshan culture was just a branch or a mixed culture of the north and south of the Great Wall, but with the in-depth investigation of the Hongshan jade, the archaeological community has a new understanding of the Hongshan culture, and the focus of prehistoric culture research has shifted from the Yellow River Basin to the north!

However, this has also aroused the covetousness of many criminals, including Yao Yuzhong, who is known as the 'No. 1 master of tomb robbery outside the Guanwai', Yao Yuzhong 'Yao Sanye'.

This Yao Yuzhong is also a strange person, people give the nickname 'Ancestor Master', read books on archaeology and other aspects, after determining the direction of the ancient tombs, directly according to the trend of mountains and rivers and the position of the sun, moon and stars, by looking at the feng shui astrological signs to lock the tomb robbery location. It's a real captain who touches gold. I know where to find the 'living soil', after he stepped on it, the tomb robber gang can dig up something every time.

And Yao Yuzhong is extremely cunning, every time after the tomb robbery, he knows how deep he digs, and after digging, he will backfill it very carefully, and try all kinds of ways to cover up the scene of the robbery, so that it is difficult for others to find out.

However, more and more Hongshan cultural relics were leaked out of the market, which attracted the attention of the government, and finally arrested 225 criminal suspects in one fell swoop, including the 'grandfather' Yao Yuzhong. A total of 12 criminal gangs involved in theft and excavation were smashed, and 2,063 pieces of cultural relics involved in the case were recovered! Among them, 248 were first-class cultural relics alone! This case has become the case in which the largest number of stolen cultural relics have been recovered and the largest number of criminal suspects have been arrested in a single case since the founding of the People's Republic of China!

The absolute No. 1 tomb robbery case in China!
