The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

Zhang Nan smiled awkwardly, and added: "This is our white dyed mud. This white dyed mud is waterproof and airtight. In addition, the upper part of the tomb is filled with compacted soil, making the tomb of the tomb almost It became a confined space. Bayi? Chinese W? W? W?. (81ZW. COM)

With so many sealing layers, it can be said that the air exchange between the tomb chamber and the outside world is basically isolated.

Moreover, there is a river near the tomb, and the groundwater level is high. The tomb's chamber has been soaked by groundwater for a long time. And even if the water tightness is good, it can't stop the water from slowly penetrating into the tomb in the form of molecules.

Under normal circumstances, who is unfavorable for the protection of cultural relics, but this is good news in the puddle tomb, because the acidity and alkalinity of the infiltrated groundwater is not large, and it is basically neutral. After soaking in this groundwater, there is less oxygen in the tomb.

The combination of several reasons, this sword can be preserved. "

Speaking of Zhang Nan, he couldn't help but pick up the sword and admire it again.

"This is a good sword that can be compared with famous swords like Zhanlu and Yuchang! Good thing!"

Ou Yezi cast the five famous swords. Xiang Weirong and Cao Qiang, who belonged to the Kuaiji area, knew about them, and even Guan Xingquan and Lin Ming from Xichuan had heard of them.

"I thought fish sausages were still steel swords."

At first glance, it was Lin Ming who was talking.

The topic successfully shifted, and Zhang Nan avoided embarrassment.

The legendary, peerless sword, turned out to be the "primitive" bronze sword by Zhang Nan: Born in a family of martial arts, Lin, who dreamed of owning a peerless sword when he was a child, was obviously strange.

Zhang Nan smiled and said to him: "This Yue Wang Yuwei actually has iron swords, but very few. But it can be basically confirmed that the five famous swords made by Ou Yezi for Yue are all bronze swords.

In the early Eastern Han Dynasty historian Yuan Kang wrote a book called Yue Jue Shu: Yue Wang Yunchang was Yu Wei's grandfather and Goujian's father. This Yue Wang once ordered Ou Yezi to cast five swords.

This is what the book says: Ou Yezi was inspired by the spirit of the sky and learned his tricks. He made a big punishment three, a small punishment two, one is Zhanlu, the second is Chunjun, the third is victory over evil, the fourth is fish intestine, and the fifth. Said Juque.

These big punishments and small punishments are the punishments of the criminal law, which means large and small, large and small today.

The large ones are Zhanlu, Chunjun, and Shengxie; the small ones are Yuchang and Juque.

The article also said that when Ou Yezi was casting his sword, tin was broken out of the mountain of Chisuan, and copper came out of Ruoye's stream...

Cast of copper and tin, these swords should be bronze swords.

In addition, Chijin Mountain and Ruoye River are in Kuaiji, which is next door. There are now ruins of sword casting in those two places, and they can be aligned with the literature. "

The peerless sword became a bronze sword, which is really a bit awkward for Lin Ming!

"Boss, I remember that there should also be a famous iron sword in the Spring and Autumn Festival, right?"

"Yes, Longyuan, Tai'a, and Gongbu are steel swords, and they are patterned steel that is repeatedly discounted. This is also recorded in the "Yue Jue Shu".

Moreover, after the appearance of the Iron Sword, the'King's Self-Action Sword' almost disappeared. It seems that there is a handle "Yuewangzhou Gou Copper Grid Iron Sword" in the bend. Now only the copper grid is left, and the two sides of the copper grid are cast with bird seals. The translation is'Yuezhou Gouyuezhou Gou' and'Self-acting Sword and Self-acting Sword' .

The body of the sword is missing and rotten, and only residual rust remains in the hole and edge of the sword grid. The test is iron element, that's it, steel is too easy to rust! "

Zhang Nan didn’t say one thing: two years later, China will unearth a bronze-cored iron sword with a jade handle in the late Western Zhou Dynasty. The owner of the tomb, Shi Guoji, is the monarch of a certain generation of the Guo State in the late Western Zhou Dynasty. This iron sword will also be honored. As "China's First Sword"!

Since the use of iron swords and steel swords in the south, the "king self-acting sword" has almost disappeared. It is estimated that it is not without casting, but replaced with lighter and tougher steel materials!

Iron swords are very easy to rust and are difficult to keep after being put into the soil: they can be seen from the thousands of iron sword remnants found in the known Han tombs, and most of them cannot be formed and cannot be extracted! Even if a handful of them can be extracted, they are already completely unrecognizable. It is impossible to identify their inscriptions or decorations, let alone whether they belong to the king's sword!

Zhang Nan worked as a tutor, and there have been iron sword remnants in the Han tombs he robbed. In the years when he was running on the construction site, he saw as many iron swords as cow hair. Near Yanxian, there were many brick chambers from the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty, the Southern and Northern Dynasties. In the tomb, as long as it was an ancient man who could afford to build such a brick chamber tomb, he would almost always bury an iron sword in the tomb-the location would usually be placed on the right hand side of the approximate location of the body.

It's a pity that no sword is useful: many are completely rotten to scum, even if you can see the general appearance, they are broken into several sections and rotten to the core!

Unlike today's iron swords, the iron swords of the Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties basically have a ring, just like the saber in the TV series "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", almost all have a ring on the hilt of the sword.

It's almost like a ring knife.

......

For this trip, Cao Qiang prepared a sword and three pieces of porcelain for Zhang Nan, one of which was scrapped, and the other was a four-series pot with a Yue kiln animal face — Zhang Nan didn't want it, let him keep it for himself.

Zhang Nan is not very interested in this type of four-series cans, and the mouth of this artifact is slightly damaged: You don’t need to collect things like this by yourself. It is estimated that the several engineering teams under Wang Debiao can last a few years. Dig a bunch out for yourself.

But the last piece of porcelain was received by Zhang Nan: a Northern Song Yue kiln celadon holding pot that could almost reach the level of secret color porcelain.

Unlike the one that Wang Debiao brought, this is an engraved pattern piled thread pot, the craftsmanship is even higher than the previous one.

If it is in the Xiangjiang auction, this holding pot will definitely be covered with the signboard of "Secret Color Porcelain". But for Zhang Nan, the secret color porcelain is the secret color porcelain, almost no good!

Although this engraved pattern pile thread pot is not up to the level of secret color porcelain, it is thin and delicate, and the glaze is blue and green, like the green West Lake!

The enamel is thin and transparent, the whole is carved and decorated, and the pattern is clear: the mouth is cut, the neck is tied, the long neck is vertical and down, and there are two rope patterns at the connection between the long neck and the abdomen, so the neck is tied down to connect six double-stranded ropes The pattern will divide the round belly into equal parts.

The Jomon partition is engraved with flower patterns with needles, smooth lines and elegant decoration: a handle on one side between the neck and abdomen, which is strongly bent, and the double line outlines the leaf-shaped pattern at the connection with the ampulla.

Parallel to the handle is the pot stream, the stream is curved with a degree, and there are continuous swirl patterns on it.

I took two antiques and left, and both sides were happy.

Before leaving, Zhang Nan told Cao Qiang: "The person who sold your Yuewangjian might still have Chu bronzes. If you have the opportunity, you can find out. If there are good things, I will pay for them."

Cao Qiang patted his chest and said, no problem!

Waiting to return home on the top of the mountain~www.readwn.com~Nicole and others have returned.

Seeing the two beauties seemed a little tired, Zhang Nan asked: "Would you like to rest for two days before going to Shanghai?"

"I'm leaving tomorrow, and I'm going to Xi'an. I'm going to see the eighth wonder of the world!"

No problem, Zhang Nan will make arrangements.

When he arrived in the living room, it was the same as Guan Xingquan who had finished eating.

"An Isuzu minivan and your Cherokee are ready, and the necessary things have been loaded into the car. I drove with Liu Wendong, Panfeng and Qiu Bo and met in Xi'an."

"be safe."

Go to Shanghai for two or three days, and then fly to Xi'an.

Small trucks and off-road vehicles run so far, of course, not as Zhang Nan's transportation in Xi'an, but because there are some things nearby that should be brought back. The time around the Spring Festival is also the slack season, so it's best to do it at this time!
