Chapter 240 Does anyone really buy this confusing thing?
Since ancient times, there have been many emperors who killed their heroes. They betrayed their trust for the sake of the throne. As long as they can manage the country well, from the perspective of the royal family, it is not a big problem.
But regardless of the life and death of the people in the world, it indirectly led to the decline of Qi's national power, and it was difficult for him to accept it as a minister and a son.
Li Heng also thought about what his father said to him not long ago. The imperial mausoleum was the place chosen by the previous eunuch, and Shouling Village must not be touched
——
The next morning.
Shen You set the alarm clock for half past eight, packed up and went outside to buy two rice cakes in the alley.
The sunny weather of the past two days passed and it started to rain and wind again.
When Professor Li arrived at the shop, Shen You had just returned. She was wearing an old down jacket, with her neck curled up, she opened the plastic bag and took two bites of breakfast.
It seems that contemporary young people are not half as energetic as Professor Li.
"You haven't had breakfast yet?" Professor Li asked, his eyes already looking for the patterned stones she mentioned.
"I can eat and do things at the same time." Shen You gave him a non-problematic look.
"Just eat first. It's not good to eat breakfast too hastily." Professor Li waved his hand, "I can take a look first."
"Okay." Shen You took Professor Li to the garage holding the warm and glutinous rice cake.
She parked the car next to her shop. There were still supplies in the warehouse, so it was not visible to others. The car was perfect for storing these things.
“Part of what I sorted out is in the shop, I haven’t had time to take a closer look at it yet.”
Professor Li saw Shen You putting together a rough slate on the ground, and said in surprise, "Didn't you say that it was put together not long after the discovery?"
As expected of the disciple he brought out!
She is just one person, and normally even a group may not be able to put it together so accurately.
"Well, it was originally in a pile." Shen You didn't say anything. She seemed to know how to put it together when she put it together.
There is no trial and error process, and the progress will definitely be fast.
"It's so exquisite. When you see these patterns, it's hard to imagine that they were carved with the simplest tools."
Professor Li put on his gloves and looked at a pile of junk-looking things on the ground with interest.
"I have already sorted it. The bronze fragments over there haven't been put together yet. It seems that they are incomplete and many parts are missing. However, the main records are how to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth."
Not their main purpose.
"You must have just found these things in the soil." Professor Li said with a knowing expression.
There are regulations in the country that antiques dug from the soil must be handed over, but this thing she had was not dug up in the country at all.
Shen You acquiesced. It didn't take an expert to see that this thing was something that had been preserved from generation to generation.
Although Professor Li knew in his heart that this thing was not consistent with the history they were studying, he was still fascinated by these exquisite patterns.
They are cultivating cultural relics, and their focus is not on academics.
The fact that the skills and things are real is valuable enough to him.
The restoration of bronze vessels has always been a difficult problem. There are too few people who can repair it, and not many young people can do it.
It's really boring to do this, and the income is average, so you can't make much money.
Shen You's studio also makes money from business orders.
"The garage doesn't have floor heating or air conditioning, so we might as well take it inside." Shen You suggested.
Take the things you need to sort out today first. Professor Li also brought a few bronze fragments that he was interested in.
Professor Li was even more surprised when he saw the rubbings that Shen You had translated. There were still undeciphered oracle bone inscriptions in them.
"Is it the friend you talked about last time?"
"That's right." Shen You nodded, "I thought extracting and comparing these words might also be helpful to our deciphering of oracle bone inscriptions."
Even though the Yin Ruins have been excavated, too little is known about that period. In the current Shang Dynasty, countries and tribes coexisted, and the same should be the case in the previous Xia Dynasty.
This is also the case in the Yu State in the Daqi plane.
Professor Li looked at Shen You with appreciation and nodded, "Yes, let's start now."
After sorting it out, Shen You can ask her friend to help and hand in the final information, which is a big help!
"By the way, teacher, on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, will Academician Hu be in Jiangcheng?"
Shen You was a little worried. She could wait, but the old emperor couldn't wait.
If the transaction cannot be completed within the deadline, Wen Zhi will suffer the consequences.
"He is more anxious than you to sort out new things, so he will definitely come." Professor Li smiled.
In order to build national projects, Lao Hu can live in the deep mountains and old forests for several years. He will not go back during the New Year and holidays. If he has important things, he will not delay his schedule.
Hearing Professor Li's confident words, Shen You felt relieved.
As soon as Professor Li started working, he also forgot about food and sleep. Shen You looked at the time and asked, "Teacher, what do you want to eat for lunch?"
"Just eat something." Professor Li sat in front of the workbench without raising his head.
Shen You found a restaurant with good reputation and fresh ingredients, and contacted her on WeChat to place an order.
These elders don’t have much demand for taste, but they like healthy and fresh ingredients.
She wouldn't be able to just get some food casually, that would take a lot of carelessness to do that.
After lunch, Shen You insisted on letting Professor Li take a break, "There is no way we can finish the work, if you don't keep an eye on me."
Professor Li pointed to the 9.9-inch glass she bought with a knife, the triangular jug, and the strange-shaped figurines she found somewhere.
The old professor has seen a lot of real cultural relics and antiques, but he has never seen such abstract fake antiques. He picked it up and looked at it for a long time, and then asked in surprise,
"Does anyone really buy such a confusing thing?"
"It's just for good looks." Shen You laughed dryly.
I thought: That really does exist. Large glass is sold at a premium in Daqi.
Professor Li became interested in the rolling lamp on the ground and the vase lamp at the back.
"This craftsmanship is really good, no worse than what I saw at the old craftsman's place last time."
The key is that the paint is made in a traditional way, without any modern craftsmanship.
Shen You smiled and said: "In two days' Lantern Festival, I will give you two."
Unconsciously, the day passed quickly, and the master and apprentice made considerable progress. Professor Li did not stay to eat, saying that he would go home and eat with his family.
The driver who came to pick up Professor Li was the driver arranged by Gu Shaoyu. Professor Li asked Shen You for a rubbing, a fragment of a small bronze cow ornament.
This thing has been confirmed to have no inscriptions and can be sent to a museum for study.
Before leaving, he asked Shen You again, "What will you decide to do with these slate animal bones in the future?"
Things cannot be reported, and after extracting the information inside, from some perspectives, there is not much value.
But Professor Li was responsible for protecting cultural relics, and he couldn't bear to see the antiquities discarded even if they didn't belong to them.
What a shame.
"I have a place to put it here, and I will arrange it properly. I won't throw it away casually. If I can't help it, return it to its original place."
The patterned slates can be left in the yard for decoration, and she will put back the animal bones that cannot be collected. There are too many.
Professor Li was also relieved.
Shen You sent him out. Professor Li bent down and sat in the car. He glanced at her small seal couplet and urged: "Hurry up and go inside. It's cold at the door."
"Okay." Shen You waved his hand.
