Chapter 768 2 bronzes

Chapter 768 Two Bronze Vessels

Soon a literary man with long hair followed Xiao Jun with a camera on his shoulder. He knew who the young man in front of him was, so he said directly and respectfully, "Professor Li, if you have anything to do, you can order it directly."

"Thank you, thank you for your hard work. You first take a picture of the big environment inside, and take pictures of all the corners. Then I will open a few boxes first to see what kind of antiques are inside."

"it is good."

After all the shooting, Li Mo and Brown Bear lifted a wooden box from the welded steel frame.Under the lens of the camera, Li Mo used a tool to pry open the cover, which was covered with wood whiskers for protection.

Sima Haotian stretched out his hand and gently opened it, revealing a bronze vessel.

"Let's take it out and take a closer look."

This is a square tripod.

Fang Ding is covered with green rust all over, about 16 centimeters high and 15 centimeters wide.Tripod cuboid, square lips, double erect ears, straight walls, four-column feet.There is a cover, the cover is flat, and there is a ring button on it.The mouth is decorated with animal face patterns, and there are three rows of milk nail patterns on the abdomen, arranged in a "concave" shape, and the feet are decorated with triangular cloud patterns.

"Professor Li, there is an inscription on the lid and the vessel."

Li Mo looked, and found that the cover and the vessel each had two lines of six-character inscriptions, which read: Daily report, mother Xin Zun.

"The inscription means that Rigao made a sacrificial vessel for his mother Xin. Judging from the shape and surface moiré, it should be a bronze vessel from the late Shang Dynasty."

"In the late Shang and Zhou dynasties, those who were able to make sacrificial vessels for their mothers may have been a powerful aristocrat at that time. I don't know if there are other bronze wares produced besides this Rigao Fang Ding."

"Professor Li, let's open another one."

"Okay." Li Mo put the daily report Fang Ding back into the box, then glanced at the steel frame, and pointed to a larger wooden box at the bottom.

"I'll help you." Sima Hao hurried forward to help carry it together.

"No, you can't move it."

While speaking, Li Mo had already moved the box under the camera lens by himself.

"How heavy can this be?"

Sima Haotian felt that he was joking, and if he didn't believe in evil, he would try it.But when he exerted strength with his hands, his face suddenly showed embarrassment.It took all the strength to move the wooden box off the ground, and quickly put it down again.

"At least a hundred pounds or so."

The brown bear opened the lid of the box again, Li Mo pushed Mushu away, and a three-goat statue appeared in front of everyone.

This second bronze ware is more dignified and richer than the one that Fang Ding wanted, and it is exquisitely made. The two are not at the same level in terms of craftsmanship.

"Professor Li, please take it out, I'll take a closer look."

This three-goat statue is about 65 cm high and 54 cm in diameter.In terms of appearance, Zun has a large mouth and wide shoulders, thick lips folded outwards, and three convex strings on the thin neck.The shoulders are adorned with three high-relief curly-horned sheep heads equidistantly, with ziggurats in between.

The abdomen is fatter, and the decoration is more gorgeous. There are three groups of animal face patterns on the fretted ground, which highlight the most vivid eyes on the animal face with exaggerated techniques, adding to the solemn and solemn atmosphere.The ring foot is relatively high, with two convex strings on the top and three large circular holes at equal distances in the middle. This is one of the typical features of Shang Dynasty bronzes. The lower part of the ring foot is decorated with six groups of beasts facial lines.

The pattern layout of the whole vessel is intricate, complex but not chaotic.

This three-goat statue was cast twice. First, the body of the statue was cast, and a hole was reserved at the corresponding position on the shoulder, and then a pottery mold was placed on the hole to cast the head of the sheep.This reflects the wisdom and skills of our ancestors 3000 years ago, and shows that the smelting and casting technology has reached a very high level at that time.

Judging from the characteristics of large mouth, wide shoulders, low body, high ring feet, three large holes on the ring feet, complicated decorations, and gorgeous and solemn shape, this statue should belong to the late Shang Dynasty utensils, and its age is equivalent to Around the thirteenth century BC.

"There is a similar three-goat statue in the Wandao Palace Museum, but it is much smaller than this one."

"There is also a similar three-goat statue in the Imperial Palace Museum in Kyoto, which is also smaller than the one in front of you. Professor Sima, it seems that we have encountered the largest three-goat statue ever unearthed."

"It's really a blessing for me, so shall we continue to open the box?"

Li Mo turned around and looked at the full boxes on the steel frame in the container, thought for a while and said, "Let's stop here for tonight, I'll go to my superiors for help. After all, these are stolen goods, and they will all become evidence in the future."

"Row."

Li Mo walked out of the container and saw the big soldiers evacuating one after another, and then the armed police and special police sent by the Jinmen government boarded the ship.

"Brown bear, use your special identity to get rid of a group of armed police and come here to guard this place."

"Understood, boss."

The special status of the brown bear was very useful, and soon six armed policemen came over with guns, first saluted Li Mo, and then guarded the front door and the side opening of the container respectively.

Waiting for Li Mo and the others to return to the hotel, it was past midnight.At this time, many people must have been awakened from their sleep, and it should be difficult for many people to fall asleep again.

Li Mo dialed Qin Yali's phone number and was quickly connected.

"Xiao Mo, how is the situation at the scene?"

"Hey, what a crime." Li Mo sighed.

"what happened?"

"You will know tomorrow, Auntie. You can organize a group of capable experts to come to Jinmen Port. They are all in a container. There will be a lot of media coming to interview at the scene. You can see if you also bring two people with you. After all, you It is the one who is directly responsible for the management of antiques and cultural relics. You know how to say something and whether you can say it.”

"Okay, don't worry, I'll call now."

Qin Yali hung up the phone, but the Jia family didn't take a break.

"Mom, what is the brother-in-law's action? You have been waiting until now?"

"Your brother-in-law found a container of smuggled cultural relics on a merchant ship in Jinmen Port. There may be other more serious things happening." Qin Yali thought of something, "Siyuan, go online to see if there is any news leaked." come out?"

"I'm so sleepy, I'm going to watch it now."

Jia Siyuan turned on his phone and looked through it a few times, and jumped up from the sofa in shock: "Mom, it really happened. The video on the Internet is not clear enough, but you can still see dozens of ambulances. Arrived successively, there were people from the army, local police, and women carried off from the merchant ship one by one, all of whom seemed to be injured and unconscious."

"Your grandfather didn't tell me a word about such a big matter. It seems that there is a big problem behind it." Qin Yali thought for a while, "You all go to sleep, I will make a few calls."

Li Mo didn't wake up naturally, but was awakened by the knock on the door. He checked the time and it was only after six o'clock in the morning. What could be urgent at this time.

Open the door and let the brown bear come in and say.

"Deputy Bureau Gao gave me news that several major departments in Kyoto were alarmed, and different delegations will come to understand the situation at dawn. If you don't want to come forward to deal with it, why don't you find someone to deal with it in advance?"

Li Mo let out a sigh of relief and stretched his waist: "I thought it was a big deal. You can just let the Jinmen officials handle it. We were invited by the officials to come here to work, so what can we know? Go get in touch, I'll sleep for another half an hour, and I'm tired every day."

"Yes, boss."

Li Mo jumped back on the bed and continued his sleep plan.

 In the past five days, I had repeated high fevers, and I couldn't bear it anymore and went to the hospital. After waiting for about four hours, the doctor said that you caught a cold and had a fever later.So friends, if someone has sun, you must pay attention to keep warm, don't see the wind, don't catch cold, drink plenty of boiled water, and sleep more if you have nothing to do.

  What I owed yesterday, I will make up for it later, it will definitely not work in the next few days
