Chapter 516: Immediate Response

Excavators, rented directly from the construction site, were also driven to the site.

"Oops, I've got the number clear!"

"The directions have to be drawn too!"

"Don't mess around. ”

Wen Shuo was busy running in the grave, commanding loudly from time to time.

While observing the situation around the tomb, he refused to let go of any clues in the process of excavation and lifting. With a shovel in hand, he worked with the workers to clean up the remaining loose dirt after the excavator had excavated.

The archaeological team carefully cleaned the soil attached to the foundation stone with a professional shovel and observed whether there were any new discoveries.

The efficiency of the archaeological team was impeccable, but Wen Shuo, who was busy, found that the driver of the excavator and those workers seemed to be working carefully and seriously, but in fact they were deliberately grinding their work, so that the work that should have been completed in an hour took three or four hours.

It wasn't until noon that the clean-up work was basically completed.

Everyone, too, is off work at the end of the day.

Standing beside the grave and looking at the messy tools thrown down at the scene, as well as the parked excavators and cranes, Wen Shuo frowned.

He knows what causes the low productivity.

Quite simply, the work at the archaeological site is a day worker, and a day of hard work is also a day's salary, and a leisurely day is also a day's salary.

Most people's mentality is, don't be so stupid!

But when this kind of thing happens, I can't say anything reasonable.

Especially Yang Jingbin and Wen Shuo, who are outsiders, if they are slightly dissatisfied, those workers will definitely retort: "Didn't you say to be careful, we are also afraid of destroying cultural relics...... I want to hurry, yes, but don't blame us for any damage!"

Wen Shuo didn't care about wasting more money, anyway, he paid in advance, and in the end, the government came up with funds to repay.

But I can't afford to delay it.

Except for the staff on duty, the rest of the archaeological team had already gone to a nearby restaurant to eat.

"Wen Shuo, let's go eat. Yang Jingbin stood next to him and said softly: "Don't worry, I will definitely pay you back." ”

Wen Shuo couldn't cry or laugh, and said, "Teacher Yang, how long do you plan to stay here?"

"Alas, there is a reason for this. Yang Jingbin said helplessly: "I can only stay for a few more days, archaeology, this situation is very common." ”

"Common?" Wen Shuo pouted and said, "It's too much time." ”

Yang Jingbin was speechless.

People like him naturally do not see the laziness of these workers in their work, and take it for granted that the workers are indeed doing their duties and being careful.

At this moment, a middle-aged man wearing a black coat, combing his oily and shiny back, and wearing a pair of glasses walked over, approached Wen Shuo and Yang Jingbin's side, and said softly: "Excuse me, two, after our archaeological excavation and all these stones on the tomb are dug out, can it be completely over?"

"Not necessarily, but it may be that there are new discoveries underneath. Yang Jingbin said seriously, then frowned slightly, and asked, "Are you ......?"

He also thought it was a local archaeological unit or a government worker.

"This construction site was undertaken by our company. Wan Chenghe, the contractor, said embarrassedly: "Originally, the archaeological work of this ancient tomb was about to end, but I heard before that you had made a new discovery and continued to excavate...... Alas. ”

Yang Jingbin has been doing archaeology for so many years, but he can also understand Wan Chenghe's dissatisfaction and difficulties, so he showed an apologetic look and said sincerely: "I'm sorry, but archaeological work is like this, every citizen has the obligation to support and cooperate with archaeological work, you say yes? And this kind of thing, the government will give you some compensation." ”

Wan Chenghe smiled bitterly and nodded.

That little compensation, compared to their losses, is a drop in the bucket.

However, developers and contractors can only admit bad luck when they encounter this kind of thing.

"This boss, your surname?" Wen Shuo immediately interjected, stretching out his right hand.

"Well, don't be surnamed Wan, little brother, you ......" Wan Chenghe looked slightly puzzled, but shook hands with Wen Shuo very politely.

"Your surname is Wen, gentle Wen, who is a student of Professor Yang. Wen Shuo smiled and said: "Boss Wan, rest assured, after the stones of the tomb are dug up, the archaeological excavation work will be completely completed, but the progress of the work will be a little slow." ”

Wan Chenghe felt a pain in his heart, and said, "Please do it as soon as possible, alas." ”

Wen Shuo blinked his eyes and said softly: "Professor Yang and I are from the capital, we don't know much about the situation here, let's talk about it, the efficiency of your workers here is too low, the work that can be done in one day has to be done for three or five days, and if it goes on like this, I estimate that it will take a week to work." ”

Wan Chenghe's eyes lit up and asked, "Can it be done in one day?"

"Not really. Wen Shuo pouted and said: "Hey, anyway, we don't need to spend money, there are funds from the state, so it's not that I complain, it's really too unusual, workers, excavator drivers, to put it nicely, are careful and serious, for fear of damaging cultural relics, in fact, they are all lazy grinding day labor, trying to make money in leisure." ”

"Then ......" Wan Chenghe rolled his eyes and said: "If our company arranges people, the efficiency must be high, can it be done?"

"Ouch, that's a good feeling. Wen Shuo said seriously: "We are not embarrassed to come from other places, let alone dare to say anything, if you can solve the problem in the best way, then, I will discuss with Professor Yang and the leaders of the working group, it will definitely work!"

"Little brother, what do you say!" Wan Chenghe immediately said: "I must have done a good job for you!"

Yang Jingbin frowned and wanted to stop Wen Shuo and Wan Chenghe from reaching a verbal agreement.

This is archaeological work, not digging ditches in the countryside to pick up foundations, and the work at the archaeological site must be approved by the archaeological working group.

Wen Shuo said to Wan Chenghe with great interest: "In the afternoon, you can arrange some competent people to come over to work, and then help dispatch vehicles to pull these stones away, let's try to finish the work this afternoon, can you?"

"No problem. Wan Chenghe was overjoyed, and then looked at Yang Jingbin with some doubts, and said, "Professor Yang, ...... you look?"

"Well, okay, okay, I'll coordinate with the working group. ”

"Okay, then let's make a decision!" Wan Chenghe said excitedly: "What time does it start in the afternoon?"

"Half past one. Wen Shuo said: "Don't worry, the money that should be spent, the salary that should be paid, the working group has a lot of points!"

Wan Chenghe was stunned for a moment, and then said softly: "Professor Yang, Brother Wen, this salary or something, you can settle it in the end, you know......"

"Uh-huh. Wen Shuo nodded hurriedly.

Yang Jingbin was confused.

"In this way, let's go to Director Li together and finalize the matter. Wen Shuo seemed to have known Wan Chenghe for a long time, raised his arm around Wan Chenghe's shoulder, walked outside the construction site with a smile, and turned his head and said, "Professor Yang, let's have dinner together." ”

"Oops. ”

The second monk Yang Jingbin was confused, and followed in a daze.

When they arrived at the hotel, Wen Shuo briefly introduced Wan Chenghe and Director Li to their acquaintance, and then briefly told the situation.

The main person in charge of the archaeological working group, of course, will not have any opinions, and everyone will have peace of mind if they finish it early, and no one wants to stay in the open air every day on the construction site to suffer from the cold. It's just that the archaeologist who is responsible for arranging the workers and calling the crane, after all, he has already agreed with people to eat some benefits from this.

But since Director Li ordered it, he could only do it.

So, those workers who were still happily drinking a little wine, thinking that they could earn a few more days of spare money, were happily drinking, when they were found by the archaeological team, and then settled their wages for a morning, and in the afternoon, they were not used.

Half past one in the afternoon.

Wan Chenghe had already personally brought a large group of people to wait here.

After the experts and personnel of the archaeological working group arrived, and Wen Shuo nodded and signaled that they could start, Wan Chenghe immediately waved his hand and ordered: "Then, be careful when you work later, follow the instructions of professional archaeologists, and don't destroy cultural relics and monuments, they are all priceless treasures, and you can't afford to lose if you sell them." ”

With Wan Chenghe personally supervising the work on site, and professional archaeological staff guiding on the spot, the work efficiency can be described as very high.

Soon, the cleanup was completed.

Prepare to lift the cornerstone.

All the people who have passed the examination leave the grave, and professional workers are responsible for cooperating with the crane below to fix the cornerstone and pull it up.

Wen Shuo looked at it with a blank look, and he was nervous in his heart.

In case of damage to the cornerstone, in case of coincidence, the carved traces of runes and magic circles are destroyed......

What if, there's nothing underneath the fucking cornerstone?!

The face is small, but the money is big!

If he didn't find it, he believed that the local archaeological unit would also return the money to him, but it was definitely better to pay back the money if he made a discovery!

Of course, what is more important is the value of those runes......

If the speculation is true, if the analysis and speculation of the purpose of the tomb owner's magic circle are true, it means that there is likely to be a secret of immortality hidden in it - of course, whether the tomb owner has achieved it or not, whether it is really valid is another matter.

At least, there is value in the study of the occult law!

At the very least, it's a hope that may lead to immortality!

Practicing the mystical method so far, and is a student of the Department of Archaeology, the fat man has a lot to know about the life and civilization of the ancients in history, and knows that the people of ancient times have a lot of wisdom and discoveries and achievements in many aspects, which is jaw-dropping.

Many of the things that were once glorious and are still regarded as top-notch are preserved to this day, but unfortunately, they have been lost.

And archaeology, it is possible to discover and find those precious civilizations!

When the first cornerstone was pulled out by the crane and lifted high, Wen Shuo poked his head and looked down at the cornerstone with his face up.

All archaeologists are also paying close attention to the cornerstone.

It's just that the bottom of the cornerstone is covered with dirt, and it is not clear whether there are any carved lines and patterns.
