The entire second floor looks like the storeroom of the museum, with ventilation, constant temperature, and dust removal equipment, and the protection is quite good. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"These things haven't been seen by outsiders since they were brought into this big house, and not all of them are mine." Lin Banshan stood aside and explained, quite satisfied when he saw Li Mobai's surprised expression.

"Lin Lao has a heart!" Li Mobai saw that these objects were well protected, and he couldn't help but be a little moved, and learned from Lin Banshan's tone that these things were dug by themselves, and most of them must have come through channels or purchases or fire, but they didn't sell these things to foreign devils to make money.

"After all, it's all left over from my ancestors, I only thought about making money in my early years, and I also sold some good things, and then I gradually understood, so I stayed, but staying here is also a big burden for me, old!." Lin Banshan said with emotion.

Li Mobai was silent when he heard this, antiques and antiques, the key is to play, how to play at any time after the number is large, maintenance has become the top priority, which he has a deep experience.

The big house in front of me is 300 square meters, jade, bronze, pottery, gold and silver, calligraphy and painting, porcelain and a small number of classics of various eras, these Bogu shelves have been occupied, not to mention there are more than 10,000 pieces, maintenance is indeed a big problem.

Looking at them one by one, the more Li Mobai looked at it, the more shocked he became, Lin Banshan really didn't talk nonsense, and the photos he showed himself were only a very small part, and they weren't even outstanding in this room.

Looking at it all the way, Li Mobai has been deeply intoxicated, Lin Banshan's collection of ancient jade, bronze and pottery is really amazing, both the quantity and the preciousness are far beyond himself, they are all treasures thousands of years ago, and any one is several times more valuable than Ming and Qing dynasty porcelain.

When he looked down again, Li Mobai suddenly found that there was a complete set of gold and silver jade clothes in the two glass covers at the back, Li Mobai changed a pair of gloves and looked at it, and confirmed that this was a real complete Han Dynasty jade clothes, and he was even more surprised and speechless, feeling that his heartbeat was already accelerating, this is a real national treasure, not a fake imitated by later generations.

Lin Banshan saw that Li Mobai was a little fascinated, so he didn't bother, but went downstairs to arrange lunch, Li Mobai still admired the treasures in this room unconsciously.

After seeing the golden jade clothes, Li Mobai began to look through the few classics in the house, and found that they were basically solitary books, and many of them were even lost solitary books.

When Li Mobai was looking at it, Lin Banshan reminded Li Mobai that it was time to eat, and Li Mobai found that the time had reached half past one o'clock in the afternoon, so he followed Lin Banshan down to eat hastily, and after eating, he went upstairs to continue to watch the calligraphy and paintings that he had not seen in the morning.

In the afternoon, Li Mobai became immersed in these paintings, which are not many but are definitely fine paintings, the most rare of which are three paintings by Lu Tanwei and two paintings by Wang Wei, which can be called masterpieces of ancient times.

Lin Banshan doesn't know who the author of these 'anonymous' paintings is, but Li Mobai can see clearly, with Li Mobai's current eyesight, just one glance is enough to judge the authenticity of the paintings, and then look at it, the anonymous paintings can also give a clear judgment, if it is a slightly famous author, you can also judge the author.

Lin Banshan was also quite surprised when he heard that these paintings turned out to be the famous Wang Wei paintings, and he also sighed to himself, but obviously he didn't know much about Lu Tanwei.

In fact, Lu Tanwei's status in the history of Chinese painting and calligraphy is much higher than Wang Wei, and he is a painter of the same name as Gu Kaizhi. Of course, this evaluation is not absolute, but it is enough to show Lu Tanwei's status in the painting world at that time.

This is also the first time Li Mobai has seen Lu Tanwei's authentic works, although I have seen a lot of comments about the ancients' painting style of Lu Tanwei, but when Li Mobai saw it for the first time, he was still not sure, and he knew that he dared to be sure after careful observation.

The afternoon was almost all immersed in calligraphy and painting, and Lin Banshan did not urge, letting Li Mobai watch it slowly, listening to Li Mobai tell about the romance of ancient celebrities, and from time to time he let out a sound of praise or two, like a cross talk actor specially for Li Mobai.

After Li Mobai finished appreciating these dozens of scrolls of calligraphy and painting, Lin Banshan said with a smile, "Bai Shao, how do you feel?" ”

"Good, very good!" Li Mobai did not hide his interest at all, dealing with people like Lin Banshan, it is superfluous to play with his heart, and honesty is the most effective strategy.

"If Bai Shao is interested, these things are all evenly given to you, especially these calligraphy and paintings, for me, I can't see that I am ugly at all, but in Bai Shao's hands, they are of higher value." Lin Banshan smiled, "Come, I'll show you a few more things." ”

Li Mobai was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said in his heart that these things were precious enough, but he didn't expect that this old man had also set up an ambush, but he didn't know what kind of precious objects they were.

I saw Lin Banshan stretch out his hand to carefully open a Bogu frame, and a door appeared behind him, opened the door lock, and walked in first, Li Mobai followed in, but due to the poor light, Li Mobai didn't see what was inside, and after Lin Banshan turned on the incandescent lamp, Li Mobai was suddenly shocked by the object in front of him.

This is a small room, about 40 square meters, there is nothing surprising about the room, but the utensils in the room are surprising, a set of bronze ritual vessels that only the Son of Heaven can have-Jiuding Bagui, it turned out to be a complete set, even Li Mobai has only seen a complete set of Jiuding Bagui in the museum, and there is no one in his own collection.

"Bai Shao, you can cut off this set of ritual weapons." Lin Banshan said with a smile.

"Okay." Li Mobai was not polite, and after changing a pair of gloves, he went straight to look at it.

These 9 statues are not small, they are all three-legged domes, about 80 cm high, about 50 cm in diameter, the shape of 9 big tripods is the same, it looks very imposing, and people can't help but have a feeling of leaning down and worshipping; The size of the 8 bronze statues is slightly smaller, but the caliber is also 40 centimeters, and the shape is the same.

These tripods and guis are very well maintained, the black lacquer ancient body is even more eye-catching, Li Mobai carefully looked at it, whether it is the type or the system, Li Mobai is sure that this is the real handiwork, and it is the bronze ritual vessel of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

What surprised Li Mobai the most was that there were inscriptions on the inner wall of both Ding and Gui, and after reading these inscriptions, Li Mobai was shocked in his heart, which was definitely the most important discovery in the history of archaeology - this was the ritual vessel used for King Zhou Cheng's banquet after the Duke of Zhou formulated the "Zhou Rite", and it can be said that it was the first set of standard banquet ritual vessels after the Zhou Rite was formulated.

"Old Lin, can this set of ritual utensils be evenly given to me?" Li Mobai knew that this set of tripod vessels was placed in the room alone, and Lin Banshan himself must have liked it very much, so he asked directly, although Li Mobai was fascinated by it today, he never took the initiative to ask Lin Banshan if he was willing to come out.

Lin Banshan smiled when he saw this, "Bai Shao, this is the vitality that young people should have, you can't always look pampered and not surprised, that will make us old guys crazy." ”

Lin Banshan finally found Li Mobai's weakness at this time, it turned out that this kid was also in a hurry, he was in a good mood, and finally found a balance.

"Don't hide it from Lin Lao, I like all these objects you have in hand, but I don't dare to show ecstasy, because I don't know if Lin Lao has sharpened his knife." Li Mobai understood that the little old man Lin Banshan was willing to make a move, so he said with a smile.

"Even if I sharpen the knife, you can still be a Pixiu, but I am afraid that if I sharpen it, it will be in vain." Lin Banshan laughed and made a joke about Li Mobai, this Pixiu is almost equivalent to Li Mobai in the antique circle, and many people use Pixiu instead of Li Mobai's name when they talk about Li Mobai in private.

"Pixiu is not a steel and iron bone, but it can't withstand the slow grinding of a sharp blade!" Li Mobai smiled and said, Pixiu is Pixiu, it's just a joke anyway.

Lin Banshan laughed when he heard this, Li Mobai acquiesced to the rumors of Pixiu, but it was not good to talk about this topic, so he said, "If I say no, what will Bai Shaohui do?" ”

"Well, then I'll learn from Lin Lao!" Li Mobai said with a wicked smile.

"Haha, what do I have to learn with these two brushes, damaging yin virtue." Lin Banshan naturally understood what Li Mobai meant, but Lin Banshan sighed through this topic.

"Where to say, such as these treasures, rather than drowning in the dust of history, it is better to benefit future generations." Li Mobai said with a smile, although Li Mobai doesn't like tomb robbers, he will not hesitate to start with the treasures that have been stolen.

"Let's have dinner first, and I'll show you a few things later, I'm sure you'll like it." Lin Banshan smiled, but instead of sighing deeply, he proposed to go down to eat.

I heard that eating, Li Mobai found that he was indeed hungry, the meal at night was very rich, mainly wild vegetables, naturally green and healthy, although Li Mobai could eat all kinds of mountain goods at home at any time, but still ate delicious.

"Why don't we have a couple of drinks?" Lin Banshan was quite happy when he saw Li Mobai's informal appearance, and thought that he had a good drink with Li Mobai yesterday, so he proposed.

"Let's wait until we finish reading the baby, let's talk while drinking, so as not to miss it later." Li Mobai smiled, the amount of alcohol of 100 million Li Mobai, even if he drank a pound, it is estimated that it will be difficult to miss.

"It's okay, Gai Ming'er will let you taste our self-brewed Baogu wine, that is the real grain wine." Lin Banshan said with a smile, knowing that Li Mobai's appetite had been lifted, and he was anxious to see his baby at this time.

In less than 20 minutes, Li Mobai ended the battle, and after washing, he said, "I don't know what else Lin Lao has to do to make Mobai open his eyes?" ”

"Don't be in a hurry, you've been bored in the house for a day today, and you should go to the yard to get some air." Lin Banshan laughed, deliberately arousing Li Mobai's appetite.

Li Mobai was helpless, so he had to smile and say, "Yes, a day has passed unconsciously." ”

Li Mobai knew that Lin Banshan was doing it on purpose, so he was not in a hurry, so he walked to the yard, moved his muscles and bones, and suddenly felt a sense of fatigue coming. Although most of these treasures can't see the light, Li Mobai naturally has a way to whitewash, Shanying has established a perfect channel abroad in recent years, and it is really a trivial matter to whitewash something.

Li Mobai walked to the yard and deliberately observed whether there were any old objects in the yard, but after walking around the yard, he didn't find any old objects, not even the most ordinary stone lions, and couldn't help laughing at himself for being too suspicious, what kind of person is Lin Banshan, how could he put a treasure in a conspicuous place to show his feet.

Walking around the courtyard with Lin Banshan, chatting casually, breathing in the fresh air of the countryside, it was quite comfortable, until ten minutes later, the old and young walked into the room together. This time he didn't walk into the main entrance, Lin Banshan opened the side door of a side room on the first floor, and didn't turn on the lights, he went in directly, and only turned on the lights after closing the door.

As soon as he walked into the house, Li Mobai felt that this room looked ordinary outside, but it was also a room with a constant temperature, and he said in his heart that there were really a lot of treasures in this old man Lin, and he deserved to be the leading boss in the tomb robbery world, and he didn't know how many ancient tombs had been killed.

As soon as the lights were turned on, Li Mobai suddenly found that there was a set of ancient chimes in the room! Seeing this set of bells, Li Mobai immediately thought of the 'Chimes of the Tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng', which is now preserved in the Chu Provincial Museum, which is the most complete ancient musical instrument found in China, symbolizing the ritual instrument of supreme power, and only princes have the right to enjoy it.

"Bai Shao, it's up to you to judge the dynasty, I only know that this thing is very precious, I have seen the set in the Chu Provincial Museum, and it is not as exquisite as mine." Lin Banshan looked at Li Mobai's surprised expression, and said with great satisfaction, and his tone was quite proud.

Li Mobai didn't speak, he was shocked by the treasure displayed by Lin Banshan, completely shocked, the bell of the tomb of Marquis Yi was one of the sixty-four national treasures that the country banned from going abroad to display, Lin Banshan actually said that that set was not as good as his own, although he was shocked in his heart, but Li Mobai knew that Lin Banshan did not need to fool himself, you must know that fooling in front of him was completely ignorant of advancing and retreating, not to mention who Lin Banshan was, if he didn't have a certain eyesight, how could he collect so many treasures upstairs, None of those treasures are fakes.

Besides, Li Mobai swept his eyes, and he knew that this set of typical black and antique chimes was by no means a fake, and the old objects had a unique surname, which was something that the most awesome imitations could not achieve.

After being surprised, he immediately took out his gloves and put them on to observe, with Li Mobai's experience, he was a little afraid to get started, and he was even more nervous and excited.

"Bai Shao, look at it casually, I know you have a soft spot for ancient music, you can try the timbre by tapping it." Lin Banshan said with a smile.

"Well, I didn't expect to have the opportunity to appreciate such a national treasure with my own hands." Li Mobai said with some excitement, if it is said that the nine peaks and eight bells just now have incomparable historical value, then this set of bells is the most valuable national treasure in the history of music, if it is made public, it can definitely cause a sensation in the world, because this set of bells is more exquisite than the bells of the tomb of Marquis Yi.

Li Mobai carefully looked at this set of chimes, and Lin Banshan explained next to him, "This set of chimes was found to be the last vote I was ready to give up 10 years ago, and it took 3 full nights to take out this set of chimes, and after the assembly was completed, it was found that this short frame was 3.5 meters long and 2.8 meters high, and the short frame was 8 meters long and 2.71 meters high, and it was composed of 65 chimes and 282 bell frame hook members, with a total weight of 4,821 kilograms. ”

The more Li Mobai listened, the more frightened he became, this thing was very similar to the bells of the tomb of Marquis Zeng, and it was obvious that this group of bells also had a great origin. Looking at the group of bells in front of him, Li Mobai found that this was indeed similar to the bells of the tomb of Marquis Zeng, which were divided into three layers and eight groups: the upper three groups were button bells, 19 pieces; The middle layer 3 groups are the south bells, 33 pieces, divided into short, non-piece, and long pieces; The lower layer is 2 groups of large long bells, 12 pieces, and another beat.

The shape of this set of bells is beautiful, the decoration of a full set of bells, people, beasts, dragons, flowers and geometric patterns, using a variety of techniques such as round carving, relief carving, yin carving, color painting, etc., with red, black, yellow and bronze natural color against each other, there are 6 T-shaped painted wooden poles and 2 painted bell wooden sticks appear solemn and solemn, exquisite and magnificent, breathtaking. Each bell and component have a wrong gold inscription marking, simply look at these inscriptions, and find that the content is numbering, notes, transcription and music theory, and the inscription is 'Chu Hou Lu Zuo Holding', seeing this inscription, Li Mobai was stunned again, Chu Hou Lu?

This is a great big man in the Spring and Autumn Period, that is King Chuzhuang, one of the five tyrants of the Spring and Autumn Period, this set of bells turned out to be the ritual instrument enjoyed by King Chuzhuang during his lifetime, it is too exaggerated, the excitement in Li Mobai's heart is already a little speechless, this is a character 100 times more than Zeng Hou Yi's, Zeng Hou is at best the monarch of a small country, and King Zhuang is the overlord of an era, there is no comparable surname at all, Li Mobai is not surprised.

"Lin Lao, are all the treasures unearthed with this set of chimes still there?" Li Mobai knew that this set of bells would never appear alone, and the bells that could appear in King Chuzhuang were at least a big tomb, even if it was not the tomb of King Chuzhuang, it was also a tomb of a later part of the Chu State, and there must be shocking treasures among them, just a tomb of Marquis Zeng, in addition to the bells, there are two other national treasures that are forbidden to be exhibited abroad, and there are countless other treasures.

"Bai Shao is Bai Shao, you can find the core of the problem at a glance, you come with me." Lin Banshan said with a smile.
