Godly Fisherman

The young people accompanied by Curator Wang did not go to the island. Xiao Peng asked Wenjie to entertain them while he took Curator Wang back to Qianliyan.

As soon as he stepped off the helicopter, Curator Wang knelt directly: This is not an exaggeration, Curator Wang really knelt down.

He was scared. A group of wolves, tigers, leopards and bears are flying towards the crowd.

Xiao Peng was taken aback for a moment: "What's wrong? I never see them welcome me so much when I come back."

Yang Meng-a dry cough: "That... I walked in a hurry in the morning and forgot to feed them."

"Well, this feeling is hungry, what shall I say." Xiao Peng touched them one by one: "Mengzi, these little boys will be handed over to you first, I will take Director Wang to my place to sit for a while." After pulling Curator Wang up from the ground, Curator Wang came back to his senses: "Boss Xiao, is this?"

"Oh, my pet." Xiao Peng replied lightly.

In Xiao Peng’s small courtyard, Director Wang saw the Kunshi rockery at first sight: "Boss Xiao, this is... Kunshi?"

Xiao Peng nodded, and curator Wang looked shocked: "Such a big Kunshi rockery? This is unheard of before!" After speaking, he ignored the rockery in the pool, took off his shoes, and ran directly to the rockery. Observe with a magnifying glass.

Xiao Peng sighed, "Made, the koi I raised will be stale by my feet sooner or later."

The koi bought by Xiao Peng can be kept in the pool. Now it's poured, two people have gone in barefoot.

After speaking, he didn't care about Curator Wang, he went to the pavilion and made a pot of tea, took out a cigar and smoked it. Doesn’t anyone say that they are pretending to be forced to smoke a cigar in the yard?

Seeing that Curator Wang didn't know how long to observe, Xiao Peng shook his head and simply went back to the room and took out the game console to play the game.

I don’t know how long Xiao Peng has been playing. Curator Wang finally shook his head and walked back with a sigh: "A **** made by heaven, a **** made by heaven! Such a large Kunshi rockery can be called the No. 1 in China. Kistler's."

Xiao Peng played with the game console and said without raising his head: "It's just a stone. It looks pretty good in the yard. Curator Wang, there are cigars, cigarettes and tea here, you are free."

Curator Wang was stunned: "Boss Xiao..."

Xiao Peng is holding his breath, damn, you are like a bandit when you come, go into my pool and let me sit aside. You are a wicked guest and am I still a benefactor? What a joke! Simply play the game console and ignore him and leave him aside.

Curator Wang also reacted. He was indeed impolite just now. Seeing Xiao Peng's apparently unhappy appearance at this time, he quickly poured himself a cup of tea, lit a cigarette, and observed Xiao Peng's courtyard. . This small courtyard has a beautiful environment. To be precise, he felt that it was a paradise on earth since he went to Qianliyan. It was 30 degrees outside and 22 degrees on the island. It was neither cold nor hot. The islands in the sea should be wet, but Qianliyan. But there is no such feeling, it really makes people feel comfortable.

Curator Wang looked around and found that the ashes had been too long, and he hurriedly flicked the ashes into the ashtray.

"En?" Looking at Xiao Peng's ashtray, Curator Wang was stunned. He directly took the ashtray with both hands and put on his glasses to observe carefully.

Xiao Peng was playing a game and wanted to play the ashtray, but found that the ashtray was gone. After looking around, he found that Curator Wang was holding his ashtray.

"Curator Wang, I want to play soot." Xiao Peng greeted.

I don’t know that as soon as Xiao Peng finished speaking, Director Wang gave Xiao Peng a vicious look: "Boss Xiao! Do you know what your ashtray is? Do you know what you did?"

Xiao Peng shrugged and said, "Isn't it just a small bronze square tripod? What's so great. Hurry up, the ashes are almost falling."

Curator Wang said with a grimace: "Boss Xiao, otherwise, you give me this ashtray, do you think it's okay if I give you a golden ashtray?"

Xiao Peng shook his head: "I won't change it. My ashtray is an antique."

"Do you also know this is an antique? Then do you know what it is?" Curator Wang asked.

Xiao Peng stubbornly took back the'ashtray' in Curator Wang's hand, flicked the ash into it, and handed it back to Curator Wang: "Isn't it just a bronze cauldron? But such a small cauldron looks even better. It's like an incense burner."

Director Wang sighed, "Boss Xiao, have you heard of Wuding, the stepmother?"

"Stepmother Wuding?" Xiao Peng shook his head: "I have only heard of Simuwuding. It is the largest and heaviest bronze ritual unearthed in the world so far, and enjoys the reputation of'Treasure of the Town'."

Curator Wang shook his head: "Boss Xiao, there is only stepmother Wuding in the world, not Simu Wuding."

Xiao Peng was stunned: "Chancellor Wang, don’t tease me. I learned history very well when I was in school. I remember clearly that Si Muwuding and Siyang Fangzun are among the top ten national treasures of China. How can you say that there is no Simuwuding."

Curator Wang sighed and said: "This has to be said of a first-rate writer, a second-rate historian, and a third-rate archaeologist."

Xiao Peng was curious: "Who?"

Curator Wang said: "Guo Moruo, you should have heard of it?"

Xiao Peng nodded, "I must know, what's the matter with him?"

Curator Wang took a cigarette and slowly said: "Guo Moruo is a'crazy expert' in the archaeological world. His whole life is to dig out all kinds of tombs, with the beautiful name,'Let the things of the ancestors be seen again.' But he overlooked the most critical thing, that is, protection. Excavations without effective protection are all destruction in disguise."

"Moreover, ordinary ancient tombs can't satisfy his appetite at all. He wanted to dig the emperor's tomb. After all his dealings, he finally agreed. So Guo Moruo planned to start with Zhu Di's tomb in the Ming Tombs, but he couldn't find it. At the exit, I went to dig the tomb of Wanli instead."

Having said this, Curator Wang showed pain on his face and continued: "Finally, due to inexperience, all the exquisite objects in the mausoleum were oxidized in the air, and there was no time to preserve them. The excavation only destroyed an imperial mausoleum. Besides, nothing else was obtained. Poor Wanli’s tomb, the Qing Dynasty did not touch the Ming Dynasty Emperor’s tomb, but it was destroyed in the hands of his own people. But fortunately because of this incident, a death order was issued on it, never again Move the imperial tombs. Otherwise, I don't know what those imperial tombs have made him dig into."

Xiao Peng shrugged: "In those days, there would always be people blinded by blood. What does this have to do with Si Mu Wu Ding?"

Curator Wang smiled and said: "That is called the stepmother Wuding, not'si'. The inscriptions of the Shang Dynasty are all engraved backwards, and the meaning of the queen is the queen, indicating the identity of the owner of the tomb. But at that time he served as the Academy of Sciences of China The elder Guo Moruo ran to do the research himself, and when he saw the words on the tripod, he directly named that tripod as Si Muwu Ding, and he called it for decades.

Xiao Peng laughed after hearing this: "It's no wonder that when we went to school, we all studied Si Mu Wu Ding. The teacher never explained the meaning of this name, and they couldn't explain the feelings. The original name itself was wrong!"

Curator Wang nodded: “Archaeology is not just about excavation, it is not just naming it hastily. Without proper protection measures and without the ability to protect, it is better to do nothing.”

Xiao Peng agreed with Director Wang: "Then what does this little thing have to do with the stepmother Wuding? Oh, let alone, let you say that the two are really alike, they are all square."

Curator Wang glared at Xiao Peng: "It's more than a look! This is a template for the stepmother Wuding! To put it bluntly, first make a model, let the Shang Wang Wuding take a look, Wuding nodded and agreed, and then made the big stepmother Wu. tripod!"

Xiao Peng was stunned when he heard Curator Wang's words: "Curator Wang, don't say nice things to tease me. According to your statement, my ashtray is also a national treasure?"

Curator Wang said: "I want to tease you, but I really can't hide anything in front of such a national treasure, lest you keep it as an ashtray. Look here." Curator Wang pointed to the small Fangding. Several vertical lines said: "This is not decoration. This is the craft trace left by the pottery fan casting process. It is called'fan line'. Only during the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, the bronzes were made using the pottery fan casting process. After the Shang and Zhou dynasties, bronze ware The casting process is a lost wax method, and the two are completely different."

Xiao Peng was at a loss, what is the lost wax method? What Tao Fan method? Although Xiao Peng inherited a lot of knowledge from ancient times, he really didn't have the knowledge of bronze casting.

Looking at Xiao Peng’s expression, Curator Wang explained: “The lost wax method is also called the investment method, which means that the model of the casting is made of beeswax, and then another refractory material is used to coat it. After heating and baking, the beeswax All melted and lost, the mold becomes an empty shell, and then the bronze solution is poured into it. After it cools, it can be shaped like a utensil. From the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period to today, the lost wax method is still a commonly used bronze casting technique. The national treasure'Zenghou Yizun Pan' uses bronze cast by the lost wax method."

"What about Tao Fanfa?" Xiao Peng asked.

Curator Wang said: "Tao Fan Fa is the name it came from now. At that time, it should be called He Fan Fa, which is to make the'fan' and'mould' with clay and pour the bronze solution, and then smash the'waifan' after cooling down. The model and model produced by this method can only be used once to produce the'inner fan' to make bronzes. Moreover, this method will leave many traces of the bronze ware, such as this'fan line', because the'outer fan' is Divide into multiple pieces. When'combining', there will be small seams between each'outer fan', so there will be'fan lines' on the surface of the bronze. Generally, the artifacts need to be polished after casting, but where there are many patterns The bottom of the vessel is generally not polished, so it will leave a pattern. Moreover, the Tao Fanfa has the characteristics of gaskets, bubbles, cast warts, etc., and the remnant soil of the body cannot be cleaned. This can prove you this piece The small Fangding uses the same pottery craftsmanship of the year."

After hearing this, Xiao Peng looked at his ‘ashtray’ directly, and said after a long while: "Damn, I have been holding a national treasure as an ashtray for feelings?"

Curator Wang gave him a white look: "What do you think? Boss Xiao, I won't say anything else here. Your ashtray is definitely the best ashtray in history! There is no one!"
