Chapter Ninety-Two: Dig and You're Done!

"That's the thing, that's the thing."

"This time, three tombs of the Eastern and Western Zhou nobles popped up in Suizhou at once, which really made the Hubei Archaeological Institute anxious."

"The archaeological teams from various cities in Hubei, as long as they have nothing at hand, have all been transferred to Suizhou, but there is still a shortage of manpower."

"Among the three tomb groups, the Wenfeng Pagoda tomb group that was discovered last was handed over to the team led by the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences for excavation."

"Let's work hard and strive to complete the first phase of excavation within half a year!"

Kong Jianwen loudly encouraged the team members, hoping that everyone could go all out to deal with this unexpected project.

After all, the archaeological institute is an official institution, and it must be undertaken when it has a mission.

Even if it is the Spring Festival holiday, even if there are more than 66 tombs in the Wenfeng Pagoda tomb group, it must be solved head-on!

Except for the Hubei Institute of Archaeology and the Jingzhou Institute of Archaeology, there are not many front-line field archaeologists in the archaeological institutes or museum archaeological teams in several other cities in Hubei.

There are only three or five people in a city.

Normally, it is no problem to be responsible for the salvage excavation of some single tombs in their respective jurisdictions, but they can't handle this kind of large cemetery with dozens of tombs at every turn.

Not only can't you do it, but you don't have enough experience!

Three large burial mounds must have a team leader with sufficient experience.

After emergency control, several agencies quickly branched out the responsible area.

The Zaoshulin Cemetery is a joint archaeological team formed by the Hubei Institute of Archaeology and the School of Archaeology, Culture and Museums of Peking University.

The Yejiashan cemetery was led by the Suizhou Archaeological Institute and the Jingzhou Archaeological Institute, and a joint archaeological team was formed with archaeological teams from several other cities.

The last Wenfeng Pagoda tomb group was led by the archaeological team of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, and a joint archaeological team was formed with the archaeological institutes of Xiangyang, Wuhan and Yichang.

In the Spring Festival of 2019, more than 20 archaeological teams and more than 200 archaeologists from inside and outside the province were gathered!

In addition, nearly 1,000 workers, technicians, and cultural relics restoration teams are coming to cooperate with the three groups of joint archaeological teams to carry out excavation work.

The entire Suizhou train station is almost contracted by archaeologists today.

Nine out of ten passengers who keep walking out from the exit of the station are here to participate in the archaeological project of the three major tomb groups!

Chen Han arrived relatively late.

After receiving him, the bus of the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences started and went in the direction of the tombs of Wenfeng Tower.

"The old and dilapidated residential areas in the Wenfeng Pagoda community have been demolished, but the real estate developer has prepared mobile prefabricated houses in advance, and we can move in directly when we arrive."

"I haven't had time to install heating equipment in the mobile board house, and now it's winter again, and the conditions are indeed a little harder."

"The local government has already helped us purchase some heating equipment, small sun and heater or something, and it will be equipped in the next two or three days."

"Let's get over it first."

On the way, Kong Jianwen was also constantly introducing the situation.

Because this incident happened suddenly, it was really too late to prepare too many things.

Fortunately, the tombs of Wenfeng Pagoda were discovered because of real estate development, so the mobile board houses are ready-made.

Suizhou is not a big city.

Departing from Suizhou Railway Station, less than an hour's drive, everyone from the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences arrived at the Wenfeng Pagoda community.

Dragged a suitcase and got out of the car with a backpack on his back.

At a glance, what Chen Han saw was a hot construction site.

Well, familiar, too familiar!

Chen Han took a sharp breath without hesitating about his image.

The smell of earth, coupled with the faint smell of decay, is like coming home.

"Okay, it's getting late now, let's take a rest today, and we'll officially start work tomorrow!"

Professor Li, who had a kind smile, beckoned: "Come on, come on, assign your rooms, and then put your luggage back in your room." ”

"The local government in the center of the Yellow Crane Tower Hotel, we booked a table for a banquet, and we will have a good meal later!"

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, everyone was called from Tiannan and Haibei to Suizhou, and the local government had to express it.

A table of five-star hotel opening banquet is a good way to treat everyone without losing grace.

Those who engage in archaeology don't love money, and they can't accept gifts.

Traveling to various places on business to go to the construction site and enjoy food hospitality is already the biggest benefit that can be obtained.

As soon as I heard that there was something delicious, everyone's spirits finally improved.

After a burst of cheers, everyone immediately put their luggage into the simple mobile board room according to the distribution.

Chen Han and Zhuang Yunpeng, the two brothers, are still the same, living in the same room.

The two dragged their luggage back to the mobile board room numbered 301.

"Senior brother, you are also suffering."

As soon as Zhuang Yunpeng returned to the room, he immediately lay on the bed and wailed.

"This is the most miserable Spring Festival I've ever had in my life!"

"I finally took a vacation, but I was dragged by you to write a paper."

"The paper was finally completed, and I thought that I could finally have a happy New Year, but as soon as the teacher called, I was about to start work again!"

"I said that I didn't have a day off on vacation!"

Looking at Zhuang Yunpeng's devastated appearance, Chen Han couldn't help laughing.

He didn't expect it to be such a coincidence.

Originally, he was just teasing Zhuang Yunpeng, anyway, this paper is something to be written sooner or later, and it is actually no different from going on vacation before writing after writing first.

But I didn't expect that this Spring Festival holiday was canceled halfway through, and it happened to be canceled the day after the paper was written.

It can only be said that it is providence to make people.

However, I still want to comfort and comfort my brother's wounded heart.

Chen Han stepped forward and patted Zhuang Yunpeng's juniors with relief: "Senior brother, think about the good in everything!" ”

"Think about it, if I hadn't urged you, we would have solved the paper first."

"Otherwise, now we have to devote ourselves to the discovery of new projects, and at the same time we have to organize and write papers."

"Isn't that more tiring!"

Chen Han's remarks successfully moved Zhuang Yunpeng.

Thinking of the scene where he would have to dig at the construction site during the day and fight the paper at night if he didn't finish the paper, Zhuang Yunpeng immediately shuddered.

"My brother is right... That's right..."

"At least the thesis was solved."

"I'll report to the teacher that our paper has been written, maybe the teacher can praise us, and it's not a loss!"

Thinking like this, Zhuang Yunpeng cheered up again, smiled and patted Chen Han on the shoulder: "Senior brother, this should be called Sai Weng's loss of horses!" ”

"Huh.." Chen Han pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, this senior brother of his own family has a little bit of Ah Q spirit, and he is too easy to coax.

"Let's go, let's go, let's gather, there's a kick-off banquet waiting for us!"

Chen Han shook his head and smiled, and pulled Zhuang Yunpeng, who had recovered his spirits, out of the mobile board room and returned to the bus to gather.

The other colleagues also moved very quickly, and they all returned to the car one after another.

After everyone arrived, Kong Jianwen raised his arms and shouted:

"Let's go!"

"Everyone eats with an open stomach in the evening! It's time for the Spring Festival! ”

Everyone at the archaeological institute also cheered cooperatively, and the resentment that was pulled back to work on the first day of the new year can be regarded as almost dissipated.

Eat a luxurious meal in a five-star hotel in the evening, and you will be able to face work with a smile tomorrow.

Isn't it just 65 Spring and Autumn aristocratic tombs!

Dig and you're done!
