"The origin of tombs in our country can be traced back to the Neolithic Age. However, large-scale and organized tombs originated in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties. By the Spring and Autumn Period, large tombs were common. However, from the Warring States Period to the Qin Dynasty, their scale was far less than before.
Of course, the Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang is an exception...
The heyday of Chinese tombs was in the Han Dynasty. In the Han Dynasty, rich burials were popular, and the grave goods in the tombs were the most abundant and exquisite in all dynasties...
Most Han tombs are cliff tombs. The cliff tombs in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River are mostly tombs of princes or nobles. They generally have tomb passages, corridors, ear rooms, middle rooms, and back rooms, and are buried with a large number of exquisite artifacts. What we are going to talk about today,
It is the distribution of cliff tombs in the Han Dynasty and its impact on the tombs of later generations..."
Zhuang Rui sat in the classroom and kept taking notes. Today's class is one of the few public classes taught by Professor Meng every semester. Not only him, Dr. Ren and Kan Yuhan are also present, taking notes carefully.
It has been more than two months since he returned to school after the New Year. This is the first time Zhuang Rui met Dr. Ren and Kan Yuhan. He heard from Professor Meng that both of them had gone to other places to conduct on-site excavations.
Before going to class, Zhuang Rui said hello to them. After studying to the postgraduate level, the friendship between classmates was far less sincere and pure than when he was in college. In more than a year, Zhuang Rui and several
There are not many interactions with people.
Kan Yuhan is a little darker than when she first met Zhuang Rui. This is because she has been in charge of excavating a Han Dynasty tomb in Sichuan for the past six months. She has been exposed to wind and rain all day long, so her skin is naturally not much better.
However, Kan Yuhan is in a good mental state. He can preside over a major archaeological excavation project at the age of 25 or 26. He has many senior scientific researchers in their 40s and 50s. It cannot but be said that he has Professor Meng's face.
Inside.
Dr. Ren is even more proud. A project he assisted Professor Meng to lead last year achieved breakthrough progress. As a result, Dr. Ren officially stayed at the school and was promoted to associate professor. An associate professor in his thirties, even at Peking University, is
He can be regarded as a role model for young and promising people.
As for Zhuang Rui's other two PhD "senior brothers", they had both graduated in June and July last year.
Dr. Jiang, who had some difficulty with Zhuang Rui, although he later worked hard to repair his relationship with Zhuang Rui, and Zhuang Rui did not give him any hard time, Dr. Jiang ultimately failed to stay in Beijing and returned to work in a local museum.
After entering, I was specially hired as the deputy director, and the salary was pretty good.
Wu Zhao, who had always maintained a good relationship with Zhuang Rui, entered Zhuang Rui's Dingguang Museum after graduation.
It can be said that Dr. Wu's ability is indeed good. After entering the museum, he became the deputy director of Dingguang Museum in just six months from an ordinary manager at the beginning, which surprised Zhuang Rui.
Zhuang Rui also specifically asked Huangfu Yun about this. According to Huangfu Yun's explanation, he himself was in charge of external relations, while the other deputy director was in charge of technology. Wu Zhaoren was young, had both technology and management ability, so he brought him to
Zhuang Rui, who was promoted to deputy director, was relieved when he heard Huangfu Yun's explanation.
"Huh? Whose phone number?"
Zhuang Rui, who was taking notes seriously, suddenly felt his phone vibrating in his trouser pocket. He raised his head and glanced around. Fortunately, he was sitting at the door of the classroom. Zhuang Rui stood up and slipped out quietly.
That's the good thing about a university. You can come and go freely during class. Of course, this is not a vegetable market. You can't disturb the teacher when you go in and out.
"Hey, monkey, what's going on? I'm in class..." Zhuang Rui walked to the corridor outside the classroom and pressed the answer button.
"Brother Zhuang, someone just brought a few items. I couldn't tell them right, so I called you. If you have time, why don't you come and take a look? I haven't seen you for a while, so you should come and inspect it too.
Just work..."
It has been almost three years since I stayed in ***, and Monkey is now much more stable than before, less impetuous when speaking, and more literary.
In the past few years, Monkey has learned the craft of seal carving from Master Ge, and stayed in Panjiayuan all day long. He has seen a lot of objects, and his eyesight has also been trained. He can also tell the appraisal of some objects.
Deeper.
Master Ge is getting older and his hands are a bit unstable. He rarely carves seals himself. Most of them are done by monkeys. Although the asking price is not as high as Master Ge, he still makes a lot of money, at least 30,000 to 50,000 yuan a month. Look.
All the heroes are a little jealous.
When Zhuang Rui heard what Monkey said, he couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Boy, if you want me to treat you, just say so. You're still beating around the bush. Is your salary being kept by your wife again?"
Monkey got married last fall to a divorced young woman he hooked up with in the community. The young woman also had a two-year-old daughter, so Monkey was promoted to father.
This woman treats Monkey well, doing laundry and cooking every day. The only thing is that Monkey has no money in his pocket. The reason is that the last husband turned bad when he had money in his pocket, so he implemented economic controls on Monkey.
Zhuang Rui also fulfilled his promise and transferred the three houses he knocked from Ouyang Jun to Monkey and Daxiong respectively. Monkey had no relatives in his family, and Daxiong took his mother to his house, which was regarded as the return of the prodigal son.
A perfect example of money that cannot be exchanged for gold.
"Brother Zhuang, my wife is very generous. She at least gives her a bag of Zhongnanhai money a day..."
Monkey's little life is now very happy and satisfying. When he comes home, he has hot dishes, hot soup, hot bed, and a child who looks like a porcelain doll calls him daddy. So even if he smokes six yuan a pack of dime eight Zhongnanhai every day,
He was full of joy all day long.
"Haha, that's all you have to pursue, okay, stop talking nonsense, what exactly is it that you don't understand? Tell me about it on the phone first..."
Zhuang Rui knew that the monkeys had been trained in Panjiayuan in recent years. Ordinary objects could not hit the eyes. Now that they were not sure to pay attention, they were really in trouble.
After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, the monkey stopped joking and said seriously: "Brother Zhuang, these are a few bronze wares and a jade figure. They don't seem to be fake, but... they should all be open wares. I can't take them."
It’s up to you to accept it or not…”
Ming vessels refer to dark vessels. As the name suggests, these objects are specially made for burial.
They are generally made of ceramics, wood, and jade, but also made of metal or paper. In addition to imitations of daily utensils, in some princely tombs, there are also figures, livestock and poultry idols, vehicles and ships, buildings, tools, weapons, and furniture.
model.
The source of the bright artifact is naturally from the tomb, and this is also the reason why the monkey can't make up his mind.
You know, in the antique business, although they will also find artifacts, they are based on the objects, such as some relatively sensitive objects, such as bronze tripods and other objects. Regular antique stores (called art stores in China)
, the approval of antique shops has not yet been released), we dare not accept it. If something goes wrong, we will not be able to eat the wool and we will be in trouble.
"Is that so? Let me go over there now. You call Daxiong and Lao Zhao. Let's have lunch. You make an appointment in the afternoon and I'll take a look at things..."
While Zhuang Rui was talking, he checked his watch. It was already eleven o'clock at noon. After hanging up the phone, he sent a text message to Dr. Ren and asked him to explain it to the teacher. He went to the parking lot and drove to Pan
Rush home.
…
"Hey, Monkey, you won't suffer any loss, the whole family of three is here..."
Xuan Ruizhai's designated hotel is a hotel restaurant not far from Panjiayuan. We usually order lunch from here. As soon as Zhuang Rui entered the private room, he saw the monkey playing with his daughter.
"Hehe, Brother Zhuang, my daughter is growing up, so of course you have to come and get some pleasure from your treat..."
Hou Hou was thick-skinned and didn't take Zhuang Rui's words seriously at all. However, his wife stood up and greeted Mr. Zhuang.
"Come on, Niuniu, uncle, give me a hug..."
As soon as Zhuang Rui sat down, he hugged Monkey's cheap daughter. This little girl was half a year older than his two children. She was very pink and cute.
Nobita's wife works in a jewelry store and doesn't have time to come over at noon. The only people who work are Monkey's family and Zhao Hanxuan, who are Zhuang Rui's earlier team members.
"Old Zhao, have you read the stuff? How do you feel?"
After the dishes were served, Zhuang Rui handed the little girl to his mother, ordered a few bottles of beer, and started drinking with Zhao Hanxuan and others.
"Hey, don't open or pick up any of the pots. I've already told you not to look at bronze vessels in the future. Those things are so dazzling..."
After Zhao Hanxuan heard Zhuang Rui's words, he glared at him angrily. Since the last time he paid a tuition fee of 10 million, whoever is in a hurry with this old man about bronzes should be worried about. Don't look at Zhuang Rui as the boss. Old Zhao
If you get angry, Boss Zhuang will also have to smile.
"Okay, you think I didn't ask, I asked the monkey..."
Zhuang Rui also knew that Zhao Hanxuan was not really angry. He turned to look at the monkey and said, "Can you tell whether it is true or false? What tomb does this object come from? Can you estimate it?"
Zhuang Rui has the intention of looking after monkeys. Nowadays, Xuan Rui Zhai usually collects antiques with the eyes of monkeys. Except for those involving relatively large amounts of money, Zhuang Rui will come and take a look around.
When it came to business, the monkey straightened his expression and said: "Brother Zhuang, in my opinion, it probably has a lot of background. The shape of the thing looks like that of the Han Dynasty. At least it is a prince's tomb, and..."
Monkey glanced at the woman sitting opposite, lowered his voice and said: "And this object looks like a pit..."
Most of the antiques in the world came from tombs, but they are just divided into raw pits and cooked pits. The cooked pits refer to things that have been unearthed for a long time. Before liberation, they can be circulated in the market.
antique.
This is not the case with Shengkeng, which refers to objects unearthed after liberation. This is explicitly prohibited by the state from being resold. If it is something very special, Hui'an may be charged with selling stolen goods if found out.
