Chapter 113 Comparable to First-Class Cultural Relics (2)

"Lao Pan, are you here?" Seeing the three people walking in, Zheng Lao hurriedly greeted him and greeted him warmly.

"yes." Pan Lao nodded with a smile and said, "Lao Zheng, Ding, you know, this is a new member of our archaeological team, she just graduated from college and is now in the internship stage." ā€

"Hello, Mr. Zheng." The young woman beside Pan Lao nodded to Zheng Lao very politely, and said, "My name is Che Juan, I just came to the archaeological team, and I don't understand a lot of things, so I need to learn from you, and please give me a lot of advice!" ā€

She bowed deeply to Zheng Lao, seeing that she was so respectful, Zheng Lao waved his hand and said happily: "Juan, you are Lao Pan's student, that's your own person, don't be so polite, you can do anything directly with me." ā€

"Thank you, Mr. Zheng." Che Juan nodded with a smile.

"He, come over here." Zheng Lao suddenly turned around and beckoned to He Qing, He Qing understood, and immediately walked up quickly, and nodded to Pan Lao and them.

"He, this is Master Pan, the most famous archaeologist in Jiangzhou City now, the relatively complete set of 'golden jade clothes' displayed in the city museum was originally discovered by him, and he has made great achievements in archaeology!" Zheng Lao pointed to Pan Lao and introduced them one by one, "These two are his students, members of the archaeological team, Ding Liheng and Che Juan. Juan, like you, has just walked out of college, and the two of them will communicate more in the future, learn from each other, and improve themselves. ā€

"Master Pan, hello." He Qing greeted politely and said, "Master Pan, I have heard Zheng Lao and them mention you a long time ago, they are the masters of the archaeological field, and they have made great contributions to the country's archaeological cause, I am honored to meet you!" ā€

"They've won the prize." Pan Lao shook his head very modestly and said, "You are He Qing, right?" He, Lao Zheng also mentioned you to me. ā€

He glanced He Qing up and down, then nodded incessantly, and exclaimed: "Famous teachers produce high apprentices, famous teachers produce high apprentices!" ā€

Hearing the other party's five words "famous teachers and high apprentices", He Qing couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but he immediately reacted, knowing that Pan Lao made himself Zheng Lao's apprentice, and this was naturally Zheng Lao and him before, and Zheng Lao had already announced that he was his apprentice.

When he realized this, He Qing was surprised and happy in his heart, although he came out, Deng Lao liked him very much, and had the intention of accepting him as an apprentice, but no one between the two sides clearly said anything, what he didn't think was that Zheng Lao had already made it public that he was his apprentice, which was what He Qing strongly hoped for, how could he not be happy about this, and now he only had to bow to the teacher.

After a while, Lin Haitao and the others also came over, and everyone greeted each other, and the atmosphere was warm.

Che Juanyi, who is the same age as He Qing, knows that she is the kind of girl with an outgoing and cheerful personality, and when chatting with He Qing, she is very active and asks about the other party's university and about the antique shop.

He Qing found that Che Juan had long legs and a thin waist, and her figure was very slender, he felt very strange, thinking to himself how such a beautiful girl would want to join the archaeological team, and not go to other industries that are more advantageous for her, although he does not have any experience in archaeology, but he usually likes "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" and the like, he has never eaten pork and seen pigs run, and he knows that the hardships and dangers of archaeology are not something that ordinary people can bear.

Faintly, He Qing couldn't help but admire Che Juan's courage and ambition.

"Lao Zheng, didn't you just hold a good thing in your hand? What is it? Give it to us first. Pan Lao suddenly got to the point.

Hearing him ask, He Qing knew that Zheng Lao had not yet understood the situation, and the cultural relics that the other party specially auctioned from the auction held by Boss Jin were prepared for Pan Lao and them, presumably to give them a big surprise.

I only heard Zheng Lao say with a smile: "Whether it's a good thing or not, you can make it clear to the palm of your hand." Old Pan, come on, the stuff is inside. ā€

Later, they walked into an inner room, and Zheng Lao immediately took out the bronze belt hook and gave it to Pan Lao and them.

"Turquoise with hooks?!" When he glanced at the hook, Pan Lao's face suddenly changed, and his reaction was very strong, as if he was a big baby, and that surprise erupted.

"Lao Zheng, this bronze belt hooks you...... Where did you get that from?! It's exactly the same as the one I had with you before, like that one! I—I'm not dreaming, am I?! Because he was too excited, Pan Lao's body was trembling slightly.

Zheng Lao did smile and said, "Of course it's not a dream. Pan, I don't know if this hook is the one you lost, but I've got one now. ā€

"It's too similar!" Pan Lao said in a trembling voice, "Embedded with turquoise, this length, this shape, is no different from the one we were robbed!" ā€

"Teacher Pan, this belt hook is the kind of thing that ancient officials tied to their belts, right?" Che Juan, who was standing on the side, suddenly asked curiously.

"Yes." Pan Lao replied in a fifteen-ten manner, "The belt hook is the hook of the belt worn by the ancient nobles and literati warriors, and it was also called 'rhinobi' in ancient times. Belt hooks are mostly cast in bronze, but some are made of gold, silver, iron, jade, etc. Belt hooks originated in the Western Zhou Dynasty and were widely popular from the Warring States period to the Qin and Han dynasties. In ancient times, a belt hook was a status symbol, and the materials used in the belt hook, the fine process of making the hook, the modeling and ornamentation, and most of them were the criteria for judging the value of the belt hook. Your belt hook is inlaid with turquoise, a precious gem, and a gold ornament, which is mottled and colorful. It's not often that a bronze belt hook is so well preserved! ā€

After listening, He Qing and Che Juan glanced at each other, and they both suddenly realized.

Zheng Lao smiled: "Lao Pan, there are traces of rust on this belt hook, which has obviously been eroded by the soil, so it is an unearthed cultural relic." Now that I've bought it for you, it's the thing back to its rightful owner, and you can take it and study it well. ā€

"Huh?!" Pan Lao was stunned and said, "Lao Zheng, you ...... You're going to dedicate this hook to the country?! How much did you spend on this thing?! It must be expensive, right?! Who sold it to you? If it is determined that this hook is indeed the one we lost, then the seller must be held responsible, and the gang of vicious tomb robbers has also robbed many precious relics, if only they could be recovered. ā€

Zheng Lao shook his head and said, "Lao Pan, don't ask about this." I'll tell you the truth, I bought this thing at a private auction, and the price was not high, and it only cost hundreds of thousands. Well, you don't care where it came from, you have it now. Even if we want to take care of the boss's affairs, we can't manage it, and besides, no one has any evidence to prove that this thing is the one you were robbed of, and there is more than one bronze belt hook of the same style. The antique shop is like this, the water is too deep, and our ability is limited, so we can only do our best. ā€

"Hey~~" Elder Pan let out a long sigh and said, "Lao Zheng, you have to be right." Formal auction companies and various TV treasure shows on the blatant unearthed cultural relics are endless, not to mention private transactions, we China is a big country of cultural relics, but by the group of cangs of rats gnawed to pieces! We have more than enough energy to do so, and we can only watch precious cultural relics flow into the hands of mercenary cultural relics dealers, and even flow out of the country and into foreign museums and private collections. Lao Zheng, you spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on this cultural relic, and now you want to dedicate it to the country in vain, I am very sorry not to go, but one of our research institutes can't come up with so much money to pay you! ā€

"Old Pan, don't do this." Elder Zheng shook his head solemnly and said, "I'll do my best." I don't want your money, you take it, I know you need it. I am an antique collector, but I have a conscience, and I never collect things that have been identified as excavated artifacts, for me, those are national treasures, they are needed by the country. ā€

"Lao Zheng, thank you so much!"

Pan Lao suddenly held Zheng Lao's hands tightly, his eyes were red, he was very moved, he had never encountered such a good thing.

"Old Pan, you're welcome." Zheng Lao hurriedly comforted, "You and I are old friends, of course I will do what I can help you." Alright, wait a minute, you guys will take this bronze belt hook back for research. But there's one more thing I want to ask you about. ā€

"Oh, what is it?" Pan Lao asked rhetorically.

Zheng Lao replied: "Here's the thing. He has a thing, it is a bronze tripod, he suspects that it is not the right age, and needs your help. ā€

"Where's that Ding?" Pan Lao said, "Bronzes are still relatively easy to recognize." ā€

He Qing accosted: "The thing is here." Wait a minute, I'll bring it to you right away. ā€

After that, he walked and put the bronze tripod on the table.

"Wow-" At the moment, Che Juan and Ding Liheng couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

Pan Lao said: "This is Yi! ā€

Zheng Lao nodded and replied, "Yes, it's a Yi Ding." The auctioneer identified it as a bronze from the Han Dynasty, and He believes that the age of the East and West should go back and should belong to the Autumn and Warring States periods. Lao Pan, you give me a palm, I don't have a deep study of bronzes, I can't tell whether this thing is from the Han Dynasty or the Warring States Period. However, based on the characteristics of the gilding process, I still tend to think that the things are from the Han Dynasty, after all, the bronze gilding process before the Han Dynasty was not common. When he bought this bronze, He spent 1.5 million! ā€

"One and a half million?!" Hearing this, Che Juan and the others looked at He Qing in amazement, as if they were impressed, it is not easy for a young man who can afford such a big spending.

"I'll go first." Pan Lao nodded with a serious expression, and then he put on his gloves and took out a magnifying glass to examine them carefully.

After a long time, Pan Lao carefully inspected almost every place, and finally he raised his head and said solemnly: "Lao Zheng, congratulations!" This bronze tripod is very unusual, it is a typical Warring States bronz, and it is very different from the general Warring States bronzes, it not only represents the mature gilding process of the Warring States period, but also has an exact mark to prove that it is the Warring States period, unique! If it is also an unearthed cultural relic, then it can be called a first-class cultural relic! ā€

As soon as these words came out, Lin Haitao and Zheng Lao, who followed up, were all taken aback.

He Qing's suspicions were confirmed!

The mediocre Han Dynasty bronzes turned out to be the gems of the Warring States bronzes, which can be called the treasures of first-class cultural relics!

This harvest is full!
