Chapter XXXVII: A New Mission
It is a matter for the professors to conduct a second appraisal of those antiques that have objections, and although a newcomer like Gu Ming who has just been brought out performed well yesterday, she has not yet been fully recognized by others, so she was assigned to box the antique numbers that have been determined during the second appraisal.
Fu Wen followed Professor Wang to conduct the second appraisal, while Guan Tong was the one who stayed with Gu Ming, assisting a professor who Gu Ming was unfamiliar with to assign tasks to other people who stayed.
Xia Jun, as Professor Liu's teaching assistant, naturally followed Professor Liu, and when he saw Gu Ming and the others at breakfast in the morning, although he was also warm, he was not hostile, and he didn't look like a cautious person.
This is good news for Gu Ming, it is better to have one more friend than one more enemy, although she and Professor Liu are not very careful, but she doesn't want to create any unnecessary contradictions on the first day she comes here.
Numbering and boxing is a tedious and tedious task that requires patience and care, as any omission can lead to unpredictable consequences.
Especially when packing, the delicate porcelain can't withstand a little bump, and after a long time, Gu Ming feels that her waist doesn't look like hers.
"How's it going, is it okay?" Guan Tong handed Gu Ming a bottle of mineral water.
"Okay, thanks." Gu Ming turned out the mineral water, unscrewed the lid and took a few sips, letting out a comfortable sigh.
"Come on, there's not much left, I went to Professor Wang's place just now, it seems that we will have to go back to the ancient tomb in a short time." Guan Tong said.
"Going back so soon? Could it be that the stolen artifacts have been recovered? Gu Ming looked at Guan Tong in surprise.
"I heard that there has been news, the person who called Yu Xiao in the middle of the night last night went out with a lot of people, and everyone was guessing what they might have discovered. Don't forget, before we came, we reported the matter of Liao Peng to the top. Guan Tong stretched out a finger and pointed to the sky.
"That's right, I just hope that their actions will go smoothly, although they have only been here for two days, but I feel that I have been here for a long time, and I miss my mother and grandfather a little." Gu Ming smiled.
"It's like this for the first time, it's good to get used to it, after all, I learned a lot more from the professor than in the classroom." Guan Tong patted Gu Ming's shoulder, thought about it for a while, and then continued: "Speaking of which, I saw Gu Hongzhai's Qin Sheng leave in the car in the morning, or Mr. Qiao sent him, I heard Fu Wen say that the reason why Qin Sheng came here is to help Yu Xiao, it seems that the relationship between the two of them is quite good." ”
"Who doesn't have a few friends." Gu Ming shrugged her shoulders, not planning to gossip more on this topic.
Gu Ming knew from Guan Tong that their group might have to return to the ancient tomb in a short time, but they never thought that it would be so soon.
As soon as the second appraisal was over, Professor Wang received another notice, and after eating dinner as quickly as possible, he immediately asked Gu Ming and the others to pack up their things and get into the car back to the ancient tomb.
It's just that when they came, it was four of them who came, but when they went back, there were several more people, Mr. Qiao, Professor Liu, and Xia Jun were all among them.
This time, Gu Ming learned to be obedient, knowing that he would have to bump around in the car for several hours, so he would inevitably repeat the embarrassment of being hungry and rumbling before, so he prepared a lot of bread and biscuits and other things before leaving, and hurried to make up for his drowsiness after getting in the car, so as not to get to the back more uncomfortable.
Despite these preparations, when they returned to the ancient tomb, Gu Ming still felt that the whole person was about to fall apart. Looking at Professor Wang's face, although there was some fatigue on his face, his overall spirit was quite good, Gu Ming deeply felt that he needed to exercise more, otherwise he would not be able to bear it if he encountered this situation a few more times in the future.
They were greeted by Professor Tong, because it was almost eleven o'clock in the evening when they arrived at the tomb camp, Professor Tong took everyone to the tent that had been prepared long ago with a few words of concern, and also provided hot noodles for supper.
Although Gu Ming's stomach was filled with a lot of biscuits, she still couldn't resist the temptation when she saw the aroma and hot noodles, and her stomach was already bulging when she lay down in the tent.
Early the next morning, Gu Ming was gently woken up by Guan Tong, and learned about the current situation from Professor Wang while eating breakfast.
When they were appraising antiques in various handicrafts, Yu Xiao seized the time to recover the stolen cultural relics from the ancient tomb according to various clues, and the suspect Liao Peng they provided before had also been arrested.
That Liao Peng colluded with the contractor of the construction team here, and quietly stole a lot of things on the day he dug up the ancient tomb, and then sneaked into the ancient tomb with other unknown people to steal, if it weren't for the inexperience of some of them, they accidentally detonated the explosives, and would not have attracted the attention of the people around them.
It's a pity that by the time Yu Xiao and the others arrived, some of the stolen cultural relics had already been transferred, and some were sold by Liao Peng at the reserve price, and I don't know who they sold to.
Professor Liu and Professor Wang had a straight face, and they didn't even have the interest to lift the bar, and immediately devoted themselves to the task of identifying the recovered cultural relics.
Due to the fact that there were very few cultural relics that were recovered in time, and someone had already conducted a preliminary appraisal before they came back, Gu Ming was not assigned the identification task, but helped make some written records, and by the way, he took a closer look at the other cultural relics found from the ancient tomb this time.
The most unearthed in this ancient tomb of the Ming Dynasty is a variety of blue and white porcelain plates, from the point of view of quantity, the tomb owner must have been a powerful official during his lifetime, and most of the burial goods are exquisite, which is eye-opening.
Among them, Gu Ming is most interested in a turtle eight immortals carved with wax stone, this three-dimensional carving work of about 30 centimeters long is dark yellow, the production process is very fine and elegant, on the head of the turtle is only about 4 centimeters, and a small turtle with its head held high, the turtle's back is engraved with the word "longevity". The eight immortals sitting on the back of the turtle have different expressions, their clothes are elegant, and they all look lifelike.
When Gu Ming's left hand touched the Eight Immortals of the Turtle, not only did she feel the heat of thinking that this thing was a real antique, but there was also an indescribable joy in her heart, this time she didn't hear any strange sounds, but she seemed to feel the leisurely mood of the eight immortals on the back of the turtle.
What's even more amazing is that the 8 immortals not only have different expressions, but after touching them with their left hand, the feeling that passed into Gu Ming's heart is also different, boring, excited, happy, etc., as if they are not carved from wax stone at all, but alive.
Just when Gu Ming was carefully feeling the magic brought to her by the Eight Immortals of the Turtle, Guan Tong suddenly walked in from outside.
She came to Gu Ming's side and said with a happy face: "Gu Ming, just now, the professor and they got the approval from above, and they are going to redeem the cultural relics here for compensation, and a special person will conduct on-site identification, hoping that someone will send back the cultural relics stolen from the ancient tomb, and both of us and Fu Wen have been named to participate in this mission." ”
