The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

"How many boxes are left in the car?"

"There are more than ten large and small. Eight?? One? Chinese network W=W≠W≈.≈8=1≠Z=W≥.≥COM" Guan Xingquan glanced at the niche and said: "It should be enough. used."

The space inside this meeting is a lot bigger, enough for two people to do it. Zhang Nan and Guan Xingquan simply went in together: the big tripod on the west side seemed to be the largest in the entire cave niche, and the height was almost 6o centimeters.

First move out of the small tripod inside the big tripod. Not surprisingly, there is also an inscription on it: leave it to Qiu Bo to move it first.

Move the big tripod again: As soon as he moved it, Zhang Nan saw the long inscription on the inside of the tripod, just like the one in his memory.

The value of these bronzes is no longer considered in the minds of everyone on the scene, because they are priceless at all! And Zhang Nan will not sell anything, it is his own private collection.

This is similar to the situation of the Yue King Sword: In my memory, before the Hangzhou Iron and Steel Group bought the Yue King Sword and donated it to the Jiangnan Museum, Jiangnan Province, the core of the country of Yue, didn't even have a Yue King Sword!

Move all the things to the house, and when the museum opens these horrifying bronze hoards on display, it is estimated that a group of people will be shocked-the treasures of Xiqin have arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, and some experts have gone crazy!

Just like the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties Project, even if it is finally completed, this controversy has never stopped: in academia, the old saying goes that there is no first in the literature and no second, and quarrels are healthier.

It took great effort to move the Dading down the slope, and it was already close to 1 o'clock in the middle of the night.

At this time, Guan Xingquan brought out a strange bronze ware and said to Zhang Nan, "What is this? There are 8 large and small inside."

This thing is three-legged, neck-wrapped, extravagant at the middle edge, nearly flat arc crotch, hoof-shaped feet, upper abdomen decorated with pilfering patterns, lower abdomen decorated with transformed dragons, and the body is cast with 3 flaps.

Zhang Nan looked at it and said: This is a 鬲, reading 1ì, eating utensils, and their functions are similar to the earliest functions of the tripod, which were used for cooking in ancient times. The earliest one appeared was the pottery 鬲, this bronze 鬲 was made according to the existing pottery 鬲 in the Neolithic Age. The shape is generally extravagant, that is, the edge of the mouth is outwardly inclined, and there are three hollow feet, which are convenient for cooking and heating.

This kind of bronze 鬲 was popular from the Shang Dynasty to the Spring and Autumn Period, and then disappeared. "

Zhang Nan took it, and saw a circle of words cast on the edge of the mouth. Zhang Nan really knew most of these words, and said: "Uncle Shan Zuo Meng Zun-Qi Wannian Son-Sun-Yongbao Use, his children and grandchildren are useless, they belong to us."

There are also 8 bronze 鬲 inside. Not only do they have the same shape and form, but also the same inscriptions, all of which belonged to the "Uncle Shan".

After moving the 8 bronze scorpions, the last large cauldron in the cave niche was moved out.

Time is just right.

"Climbing Feng, Qiu Bo, take back all the detectors, big and small."

Upon hearing the boss's words, the two bodyguards returned to the platform with a metal detector after moving the last big tripod.

I brought three detectors on this trip. In addition to the first one I bought from a township enterprise in Guangxi province, two of them were brought back from the United States, all with very high sensitivity.

The small one is not much larger than the one used for security checks at the airport, while the larger one is no problem at a depth of 3 meters if it is used to detect bronzes weighing several kilograms underground.

"Brother Guan, Climbing Peak, you can go to the top and check it. It's centered on this place. It's about 3oo square meters."

Guan Xingquan took the largest set, and together with Li Panfeng went up the loess steps above to start detection, while Zhang Nan held a small hand shovel in one hand, and a small detector in the other went into the niche.

The small shovel cleaned the bottom of the lower cellar cave, which was raw soil, and then used the detector to check it around: except for the weak reaction of patina, there was no metal reaction on the walls of the cave niche.

This can be regarded as the completion of the cleaning of the utensils, a total of 28 items, but because one of the copper pots was unearthed in a different place with the body of the pot, it was actually 27 treasures.

There are 12 copper tripods alone! There are so many bronze tripods unearthed at one time, and it is estimated that it will be one of the few in China as a whole!

Among the 27 artifacts, there are 12 bronze tripods, 9 bronze 鬲, 2 bronze pots, and 1 bronze plate, bronze 匜, bronze 盂, and bronze 盉. Six tripods can be regarded as large tripods, all weighing more than 4o Jin, two of which are nearly 100 Jin. That copper pot is also big enough, there is always 7o catty, and a pair of copper pots weighs about 50o catty each!

Here began to do the final sorting, and a message was posted on the superior platform: There is a reaction underground!

This is not surprising. The archaeological department of West Qin Province has conducted investigations, drilling and excavation on the nearby platform above the head of this cellar niche.

The excavation area was only 3oo square meters. In addition to this bronze cellar, a total of 16 tombs were excavated, including 5 tombs in the Western Zhou Dynasty, 11 tombs in the Xian Zhou Dynasty, 1 carriage and horse pit, and 1 horse pit.

The first Zhou, to put it plainly, is the historical period of the Zhou people before the extermination of the Shang Dynasty: The Zhou people were a tribe surnamed Ji that emerged after the Shang Dynasty, so the kings of the Zhou dynasties were surnamed Ji.

After Zhou people, Ji became the ancestor. Because he understood the way of cropping, the crops he planted were very lush. According to legend, he was used as a "farmer" by Emperor Yao, and he was named to Tai. According to legend, it is now Xianyang Wugong County. In the southwest, another surname was given to Ji.

According to historical records, there were 15 generations of ancestors from Houji to Zhou Wenwang during the pre-Zhou period: Qi (Houji)—>Buyu—>Ju Tao—>Gong Liu—>Celebration—>Emperor Servant—>Cha Fu— > Ruin -> Gong Fei -> Gaoxu -> Yaxu -> Zuchuang -> Gu Gong and Fu -> Ji Li -> Wen Wang.

In the pre-Zhou period, the capital went through several migrations, and the people of Zhou became stronger and stronger. Only then did they have the capital to destroy the merchants later.

"There are at least seven or eight places above that have metallic copper reactions. Do you want to dig?"

After Guan Xingquan and Li Panfeng probed, they came down to ask Zhang Nan.

"Forget it, it is estimated that the depth is not small, wait until the next opportunity to talk about it."

There are chariots and horse pits and horse pits to bury. Those tombs must not be of low level, but Zhang Nan is not in a hurry at this time~www.readwn.com~ Those tombs are at least two meters deep from the surface. Kaibangzi can't dig a pit before dawn-the hundreds of kilograms of bronze in the small truck are too precious to cause any accidents.

Moreover, in the o3 year, various media reported on the 27 bronzes in the cellar. It is estimated that those in the tomb were not precious objects, so I will talk about it next time.

The land of Yangjiacun is amazing. There have been two bronze cellars before today, and the distance between them is up to 2oo meters.

Guan Xingquan felt a little regretful, and Zhang Nan smiled and said: "What anxious, next time we bring a large ground penetrating radar, we will find another windy and snowy day, and there will be opportunities."

"Okay, listen to you."

This grave digging is also addictive!

Once everything is packed, you can't just leave like this: it's not very far from the village. It will be fun to wait for someone to discover the big hole here in a few days.

It's up to my brother-in-law to find a way!
