After the first expert took the stage, the venue became quieter.
The TV station's cameras started working, and from time to time they would show some close-ups of the Chinese expert representative seat and Japanese experts. Yesterday, it was the help of experts from these two places that greatly increased their ratings.
The manager is still praying today that the wonderful performances from yesterday will continue so that their ratings can continue to soar.
The Korean expert on the stage was already standing in front of the treasure display platform with a faint smile on his face.
This Korean expert is not too old, only fifty-five years old, but he looks older. He looks like he is sixty years old when he stands on the stage.
"I, Park Yuan, brought a piece of bronze!"
The Korean expert spoke very simply. After speaking, he opened the box and took out a bronze tripod about thirty centimeters high. The tripod was square and had four legs. Judging from the tripod's body, it should be a bronze vessel from the Shang Dynasty.
, some years old.
Whether it is bronze or porcelain, there is a saying that one square is supported by ten circles. This square tripod is so completely preserved and has clear inscriptions, which is even more rare and very valuable.
Lin Lang in the audience couldn't help but nodded when he saw this treasure. Today was a good start.
"This, this is Zhou Gongding!"
In the table of representatives of Chinese experts, Teacher Zhang Sheng suddenly shouted and stood up.
As soon as he stood up, staff members came over. Experts from many other countries also came to take a look. The manager of the TV station was the most excited.
What he wanted came so quickly.
Li Yang hurriedly and carefully pulled his hand, and whispered: "Teacher Zhang, don't get excited, sit down first and then talk!"
Yesterday, the venue added new venue rules. No one is allowed to interrupt others when they are showing off their treasures. Otherwise, it is a serious violation.
If you violate the rules, the most severe punishment can be direct expulsion from the venue. This is also because of the rules set by Li Yang's previous events.
Now many people are staring at Li Yang, let alone being careless.
Zhang Sheng is a Guangdong expert who came to participate in the event. He is also a well-known collector and appraiser in the industry, especially in bronzes.
What is different from other experts is that Zhang Sheng is really a university professor and a professor of archeology.
This is different from most other collectors. There are not many archaeological professionals engaged in collecting, and even fewer have achieved a certain level of prestige.
Zhang Sheng can be regarded as one of the collection experts with the most professional and strongest archaeological knowledge.
"Xiao Li, don't worry, I'm fine!"
Zhang Sheng sat down slowly, his face looking a little painful. Several experts around him looked at him blankly. No one knew what was going on.
On the stage, the big screen began to take an all-round close-up of this large square tripod. No matter where you looked at it, it was a Shang Dynasty bronze with an open door. Especially the inscriptions on the tripod could be seen very clearly. A large screen
At this time, these inscriptions are being displayed continuously.
Several experts were looking at Zhang Sheng with some worry on their faces. Zhang Sheng was not looking good now.
Mr. Zhou's brows jumped slightly, and he suddenly said: "Zhou Gongding, Teacher Zhang, is this tripod related to Zhou Cemetery?"
Zhou Cemetery?
The other experts were immediately stunned, and Mr. Huang was no exception.
No one has heard of Zhou Gongding, but everyone knows about Zhou Cemetery. Zhou Cemetery is a large tomb discovered at the end of last year. It is the tomb of a prince from the Shang Dynasty. The prince's surname was Zhou, so it was called Zhou Cemetery, not Zhou Dynasty.
Ancestors of the dynasty.
Many bronzes were unearthed from Zhou Cemetery, which caused a great sensation in the archaeological circle, and many people in the collecting community have heard of it.
However, what everyone has heard are some small items unearthed. Such a large and complete heavy weapon has never been heard of.
Li Yang slowly opened his special ability, and the entire tripod was immediately displayed in the three-dimensional screen.
The aperture around the tripod is a very rare black aperture. Li Yang has not seen many things with black apertures, but as long as there are such apertures, they are more than three thousand years old.
In terms of age alone, this tripod does belong to the Shang Dynasty.
Looking at the tripod, the corners of Li Yang's eyebrows suddenly jumped.
The tripod had been specially treated, and there were no traces of its freshness. It looked more like something that had been unearthed a few years ago. However, the remaining soil and the traces left after treatment allowed Li Yang to judge that the tripod was
It was unearthed no more than half a year ago.
The traces of artificially processing the unearthed bronze vessels are a bit weird in themselves, and considering Zhang Sheng's previous behavior, Li Yang was also very confused at this moment.
When Li Yang was hesitating and about to ask, Zhang Sheng spoke himself.
"Teacher Zhou is right. This tripod is indeed related to Zhou Cemetery. To be precise, this tripod came out of Zhou Cemetery!"
"If it came out of the tomb, how could it end up in the hands of Koreans?"
Bai Ming immediately screamed in surprise. The things unearthed in the tomb were all national cultural relics. These things could not be bought or sold, let alone abroad.
Not to mention a heavy weapon like a tripod.
Professor Zhang Sheng gave a wry smile and said slowly: "It was actually more than two years ago that Zhou Cemetery was discovered. The excavation started under my leadership before the end of last year. But what we didn't expect was that the Zhou Cemetery, which was originally judged to be complete, turned out to be
It was stolen and dug up first!”
Several experts looked at Professor Zhang Sheng quietly. No one really knew this secret.
But if you think about it, you can understand that people in the archaeological community will definitely not publicize such embarrassing things everywhere. It is normal for them not to know.
"The most disgusting thing is that this tomb was stolen more than a month before we officially excavated it, which makes us extremely sad!" Zhang Sheng shook his head, with a look of pain on his face, and continued: "Later, after investigation, it was discovered that
There was an internal problem within us. Someone was greedy for money and couldn't resist the temptation. He made a move in advance and poached a batch of important treasures from Zhou Cemetery in advance. Among them was a tripod, which is Zhou Gongding!"
At this point, all the experts basically understand it.
The archaeological team found a mole and stole the ancient tomb to be excavated in advance. This mole must be an important figure in the archaeological team, otherwise he would not know the location of the tomb in such detail, let alone be so ignorant.
Unconsciously.
Wherever a large tomb is discovered, it is guarded in advance.
As for the stolen treasures, as everyone can predict, Zhou Gongding appeared in the hands of Koreans, and these items were probably shipped out of the country for sale by now.
These people who rob tombs and then resell cultural relics abroad can be said to be even more despicable than traitors. What they have lost is the wealth of the entire Chinese nation.
"I believe what Teacher Zhang said. This tripod was unearthed no more than half a year ago and has been specially treated!"
Li Yang said softly, and several experts looked carefully at the stage. Mr. Huang and Mr. Zhou then nodded silently. They really didn't pay attention to this at first. The way the tripod was handled was...
It was so clever that they almost couldn't tell it was something just unearthed.
"Yes, within half a year, Xiao Li is indeed amazing!"
Zhang Sheng nodded, and seemed to have a smile, but his face immediately showed anger, and said: "The person who robbed the ancient tomb this time is an old buddy of mine, who is also the deputy captain of our archaeological team. He and Pu Yuan have long ago
We have been friends for several years. After the tomb robbing incident, he disappeared and is still wanted. I originally thought he had fled to the United States or Canada. But now that I saw this tripod, I realized that he must be hiding in South Korea.
!”
"So, the tomb robbery this time may be related to Park Yuan Yuan?" Mr. Huang opened his mouth and said slowly, and everyone seemed a little surprised.
"I didn't know it at first, but then I suddenly remembered that Pu Yuan came to China once during the time when this tomb was stolen. This person often comes to China. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but now..."
At this point, Zhang Sheng couldn't talk any more, but everyone already understood what he meant.
The tomb robbery this time is probably related to Pu Yuan, so there can be a reasonable explanation for these treasures being sent abroad so quickly.
Someone is waiting for you.
If this is really the case, then this Pu Yuan is too hateful and despicable.
He joins forces with other people's traitors to plot to seize other people's treasures, and then deliberately shows them off in front of other people's eyes. I'm afraid the word shameless cannot be used to describe such a person.
To say he is shameless would be a stain on the word.
At this time, everyone remembered the look that the Korean had before he came on stage.
Every expert immediately became extremely angry, even Li Yang was no exception. At this time, Li Yang wanted to go up and punch this guy.
A thief steals something and hides for a while, but this guy is lucky enough to come out in public with all his might.
"The Duke of Zhou's tripod is the best treasure in Zhou Cemetery. It is an important weapon of the country. What a pity!"
Zhang Sheng sighed heavily again, and the experts around him felt uncomfortable. They didn't need Zhang Sheng to explain this. They also understood that Fang Ding and Fang Ding with inscriptions were very important among bronzes. Every expert knew very well.
The tripod has always been a very important thing in ancient China. A long time ago, there was a legend that Xia Yu cast nine tripods. The tripod was also regarded as an artifact of the country and a symbol of the emperor's power.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, the King of Chuzhuang sent soldiers to Luoshui to demonstrate to the Emperor of Zhou, and asked the Emperor: "How big or small is the tripod?"
King Zhuang of Chu's aspiration for the throne was actually to spy on the world and seek political power, and the tripod was just a reason.
But from this incident, we can see the importance of the tripod in ancient times. To win the world, to win the Central Plains, these idioms all come from this. Only with the tripod can the world be established.
Such an important weapon fell into the hands of others, or fell into the hands of a thief. No wonder everyone is so angry and finds it so difficult to accept.
"Mr. Park from South Korea brought a Zhouwang tripod from China's Shang Dynasty. Please give us the appraisal results!"
The host stood up. This tripod has been on display for a long time. Even the organizers know the importance of such a tripod. This tripod is so completely preserved and the inscription is so clear that it can be regarded as a museum in any museum.
treasure.
This is probably because they extended the display time a little longer. Pu Yuan was holding his head high and seemed very proud.
Other expert representatives from South Korea also looked proud at this meeting.

The third update is today's third update. Yesterday's fourth update is not a catch-up. Xiaoyu still owes one day's update and will wait until next week to make up for it. I would like to clarify!
