"Toot Toot Toot Toot ......"

On the country road from Minhe County in Qinghai to Guanting Town, a Jinlong bus is driving at full capacity.

Sitting in the car was the archaeological team led by Kong Wenjian.

More than 30 people, full of people, sat in the car, bumping along with the car.

"I'm sorry, we are in this poor country, next to the Great Gobi, and the road is a little difficult to walk."

The driver of the bus copied an authentic Qinghai native Mandarin and kept apologizing to Kong Wenjian, who was sitting in the co-pilot.

The leader can say that the people who picked up this time are not ordinary, they are a group of high-level intellectuals, either doctors or masters, and even professors have several!

But you have to be careful.

But he completely missed it.

Kong Wenjian and his entourage, although all of them are highly intellectuals, none of them are pampered.

Those who engage in archaeology can't be pampered.

Everyone is either on the construction site every day, or on the way to the construction site, and the ground is more than half a year, every day with the yellow sand and soil, what kind of shelf can there be?

The road was bumpy at this point, and no one paid attention to it at all.

The dozen or so young people in the back row all slept sweetly.

"Ahem, wake up all the sleepers, we're almost at our destination!"

Looking at his watch, Kong Wenjian ruthlessly woke up the team members who were dozing off after a long journey.

"Did you say hello to your family?" He looked at Chen Han and several other young people in the team, and said with a serious face: "This is a big project, it is an active excavation, and it is estimated that it will not be able to be done in a year and a half." ”

"If you have a target, you have to appease your object."

"Don't be halfway through the construction site, and the subject will run away with someone else."

"At that time, I was depressed and anxious every day, crying and grabbing the ground, and there was no psychological counselor in the team to provide psychological treatment."

Kong Wenjian is not joking.

Why do archaeologists always refer to the archaeological site as "going down to the construction site"?

On the one hand, it is because many rescue excavation projects usually dig graves at a certain construction site while building infrastructure.

The archaeological team is like a fire brigade, where something happens at the construction site, they go there.

On the other hand, it is because the work experience of archaeological excavation is basically the same as that of a construction site.

Every morning at 7 o'clock, I went to the construction site, clicked on the soil, and worked until the sun went down, and went back to the house near the construction site to rest, and then continued to go back and forth the next day.

And usually I can't go home for more than half a year, and I eat, drink, and Lazar are all on the construction site, and the scope is expanded to the town at most.

The life experience is not much different from that of the construction team engaged in infrastructure construction.

Kong Wenjian has been in this industry for almost 30 years, and he has brought an unknown number of newcomers.

Basically, every year, there will be newcomers who are kicked by their girlfriends because of the work environment.

Even many people like to mention the green hat, and then wash their faces with tears every day, working unintentionally, which greatly reduces the work efficiency of the team.

Especially in recent years, I don't know if it's because of the impetuousness of society, or because the development of the Internet has shortened social distancing.

Newcomers like Chen Han, who have just left college for a few months, will most of them suffer an emotional blow in the first half of their career.

After all, not many young people can accept that their other half in love is not by their side for a long time, and they are basically unable to contact during the day, and they are in a state of disconnection.

There's no way, you can't expect that during archaeological work, you can still dig down to dig the soil, and at the same time make a quick phone call and send WeChat to the object with one hand, right?

In Kong Wenjian's era, there was no such developed mobile Internet, and couples who usually worked could not contact each other, but there was no such "lovesickness".

But today's young people can't wait to stick together 24 hours a day, even if they don't meet each other, they are always chatting on social software.

It's hard for them to tolerate this kind of work = loss of contact.

"It's all comforting, my girlfriend is very supportive!"

"My boyfriend has been kicked by me, a scumbag!"

"Professor, I'm single!"

Several young people in the team hurriedly raised their hands to say that there was no problem, and the emotional problems that should be solved were all solved.

And facing Kong Wenjian's inquiring and inquiry-like gaze, Chen Han also spread his hands very calmly: "Teacher, I don't have a girlfriend, let alone a wife, so I don't have to think about this problem." ”

"I'm unmarried."

"I decided a long time ago to devote all my limited energy to archaeology."

"As for my parents, they have very low requirements for me, I can contact them once a month to make sure I'm still alive."

Kong Wenjian nodded appreciatively, he deserves to be the first in the professional course of the History Department of Peking University this year, and he loves archaeology very much!

However, he didn't agree with the persuasion: "Xiao Chen, there is still a marriage, and a stable marital relationship can make your work more comfortable." ”

"The misconceptions of the girls outside about us archaeologists are too great, and it is indeed inappropriate."

"But you can find someone in the industry."

Kong Wenjian was angry and motioned for Chen Han to look at Su Sa, the senior sister sitting beside him.

"Your senior sister, you are beautiful, your professional skills are solid enough, and you can still have a lot of common language, you can give it a try."

"Although she is three years older than you, as the saying goes, a female junior holds a gold brick!"

The atmosphere on the bus immediately changed, and the other archaeological team members who were traveling with them all began to coax.

Su Sa, who was ridiculed, lowered his head very embarrassedly, and kept looking at Chen Han from the corner of his eye, looking like he wanted to welcome and be ashamed.

This junior brother, Su Sa is still very satisfied.

She is handsome, her personality is also very elegant and easy-going, she is polite when she gets along with each other every day, and she is full of scholarly atmosphere.

Not to mention the archaeological team with crooked melons and cracked dates, even if it is placed on a university campus, it is a cherished stock at the school grass level!

If they can get along with him, then they can't become a pair of Condor Heroes in the archaeological world?

Su Samei thought about it, the more she thought about it, the more shy she became, and the more she thought about it, the more she looked forward to it.

It's a pity that Chen Han didn't mean this at all, he shook his head and chuckled: "Teacher, you are messing with mandarin duck scores." ”

"I just joined the work, and if I have no intention of falling in love, don't delay my senior sister."

Well, a slick refusal.

Kong Wenjian nodded indifferently.

He just casually mentioned that it would be better for Chen Han not to fall in love, and his work would be more efficient.

"Alright, everyone pack up, it's time to get ready to get off."

After chatting for a while, the bus is about to arrive at the destination of this trip, Lajia Village.

Kong Wenjian, who was sitting in front, saw the big archway in Lajia Village.

A few minutes later, the bus drove straight into the door of a house at the east end of the village.

"Get out of the car and assemble!"

"This building is the house that everyone has chartered, and they will live here for the next few months."

Chen Han put on his small backpack, followed behind the large army, and got out of the car through the back door.

As soon as he got out of the car, he saw a busy scene.

Centered on this private house contracted by the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, more than a dozen small buildings in the vicinity are a busy scene.

The big red team flags with "Hudong Provincial Archaeological Team", "Jiangsu and Zhejiang Archaeological Team" and "Central Plains Archaeological Institute" written on them were hung in front of their respective buildings.

After a rough count, Chen Han saw at least five or six archaeological teams from different parts of the country.

It made him a little staggered.

It's really a big project, and there are so many archaeological teams as soon as they are deployed!

At the same time, Kong Wenjian also took out a big red team flag from the car and planted it vigorously outside his residence.

The red flag embroidered with the eight big characters of "Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences" is waving in the wind and hunting, announcing the arrival of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences!

Looking at this team flag, Chen Han's heart rose with enthusiasm and passion for no reason!

Lajia ruins, I'm here!
