Everyone looked at Qin Yu sipping the wine. Many people swallowed a few times because the aroma of Wolong drunk wine was so attractive.
"Mr. Qin, what kind of wine do you have, is it so fragrant?" Zhang Haiming thought that he and Qin Yu were the most familiar among the people present. He walked over, looked at the wine in Qin Yu's glass, and asked.
"This is called Wolong Zui, and it's a new kind of wine." Qin Yu smiled, "How about Director Zhang give it a try too."
"Hey, okay, let me have a taste." What Zhang Haiming was waiting for was Qin Yu's words. Without even being polite, he directly stretched out the cup. Qin Yu took out the porcelain bottle again and poured Zhang Haiming a small cup.
"It really smells good." Zhang Haiming raised the cup, put his nose on the rim of the cup, took a sip, sighed, then slowly raised the cup, reluctant to drink the whole cup, but just took a small sip.
"This wine..." After taking a sip of wine, Zhang Haiming's eyes widened a little. He glanced at Qin Yu, then poured all the remaining wine in the cup into his mouth in one gulp, and smacked several times, "
This is definitely the best wine I have ever drunk. Mr. Qin, where did you buy this wine? I will also buy a few large jars to store at home."
"It's not easy to keep several large jars. This wine is not cheap." Qin Yu looked at Zhang Haiming with a strange expression. A jar of Wolong drunk weighs ten kilograms. According to his price, the minimum is one million. A police officer in a remote county
Bureau Chief, I really can’t afford to drink.
"How much does a bottle of this wine cost? One thousand?" Zhang Haiming asked.
"One thousand?" Qin Yu shook his head, "The sip you just drank is only one thousand yuan."
"So expensive." The corner of Zhang Haiming's mouth twitched. He really couldn't afford it. He was the director of the Public Security Bureau, and his salary plus some oil and water in this remote county only cost 500,000 to 600,000 yuan a year. This was already enough.
He is ranked high in the county. If even he can't afford to drink the wine, it can be said that there are only a handful of people in Hengyuan County who can afford it.
"Just brag, what kind of wine is so expensive and costs a thousand yuan a bottle? You think it's one of those top-quality red wines." Xuanxuan heard the conversation between Qin Yu and Zhang Haiming and walked over with a look of suspicion on her face.
"Whether it's expensive or not is my business. This is the price I sell my wine. How can so-called red wine compare with the wine-making technology passed down by our ancestors?"
"Mr. Qin, is this wine brewed by you? Can you give me a taste?" Professor Qi heard Qin Yu's words and came over. This is the good thing about people who are devoted to academic research. Whatever is on their mind, they can say it directly.
, won’t beat around the bush, can’t lose face or anything like that.
"sure."
Qin Yu nodded and poured half a cup for Professor Qi. However, Professor Qi was different from Zhang Haiming. He first shook the cup, looked at the transparency of the wine, and then took a few sips of the aroma of the wine before picking it up.
The cup was drained in one gulp.
"Good wine, this wine is worth a thousand sips."
After a while, Professor Qi gave Qin Yu a thumbs up and said affirmatively: "In addition to studying cultural relics, I love this sip of wine all my life. My students often give me some wine. This Moutai
, this girl Xuanxuan gave it to me, so it can be said that I have drunk almost all the wines from all over the country, but compared with this Wolong Zui, all these wines have to be overshadowed."
"Mr. Qin, you said that this wine is a new wine brewed by you. I absolutely believe it. If such a fine wine had been around for a long time, there is no way I wouldn't have known about it."
"Teacher, is this wine that good?" Xuanxuan still didn't believe it, and Qin Yu finally understood why this girl came to find fault. He felt that the wine given to the teacher was outweighed by his own wine, and he felt unhappy.
Happy.
"Qin Yu, give me a taste of this wine." Xuanxuan stretched out her hand directly towards Qin Yu and demanded.
"Xuanxuan, don't be ridiculous. After one sip of such a precious wine, the teacher is already polite to Mr. Qin. How can you make such a rude request?" Professor Qi quickly stopped him.
"Teacher, I'm not fooling around. No matter how precious this wine is, it's not as precious as his girlfriend." Xuanxuan muttered in a low voice, then smiled at Qin Yu and said: "Meng Yao is my cousin, and I am her most beloved.
cousin."
"Take it!"
Qin Yu almost spit out a sip of wine from his mouth, coughed twice, and happily handed the porcelain bottle with half a bottle of wine left to Xuanxuan.
"No wonder you dared to talk back to Meng Fang and refused to deal with me all the way. It turns out that the root is here." Qin Yu looked at Xuanxuan's back with a smile and left with a porcelain bottle, and shook his head helplessly. Meng Yao's cousin...
But since she was Meng Yao's cousin, Qin Yu's expression became serious, so he had to change his plan for this trip to Laofengshan.
"It is indeed a good wine. Senior brother, you should try it too." Xuanxuan took Qin Yu's porcelain bottle and poured a little for herself to taste. Then, her little face suddenly shone brightly and she poured a full amount for herself.
After a cup, she saw the senior brothers around her looking at her eagerly, and then reluctantly handed the porcelain bottle out.
A porcelain bottle of Wolong drunk was just like this. After drinking, everyone's spirits were lifted and they began to sit around in front of the soup fire. Xuanxuan pestered Professor Qi to tell her interesting things about archeology. It can be seen that
, Professor Qi loved Xuanxuan very much and did not refuse. He slowly said: "Let me tell you about the first time I went to dig a grave."
Except for Xuanxuan, everyone else listened with their ears pricked up when they heard that Professor Qi was going to talk about his visit to the cemetery. In the eyes of ordinary people, what these archaeologists do is very mysterious.
"That happened more than thirty years ago. I was only in my early twenties at the time. At that time, people in Zhoukou, Henan Province reported that they heard an explosion in the nearby mountains. The sound sounded like the sound of explosives exploding.
It was not as peaceful as it is now, especially for Zhoukou's generation. At that time, because there were many ancient tombs in Zhoukou, tomb robbing was a common practice in Zhoukou. Tomb robbers would often sneak into the mountains to rob tombs, blow up the ancient tombs with detonators, and steal
Burial artifacts.
At that time, Professor Qi's teacher was an expert from the Zhoukou Institute of Cultural Relics. After receiving reports from the villagers, because he lacked assistants, he took Professor Qi, who had not yet graduated, with him.
When Professor Qi followed the teacher to the place where the explosion came from, they discovered that in front of them, there was a large crater on the ground, and there was a strong smell of gunpowder smoke.
Because it was the first time for Professor Qi to follow the teacher to search for ancient tombs, he was inevitably a little curious. At first glance, he looked at the bottom of the pit. When he saw it, he was stunned for a moment. There were a bunch of broken bricks underneath, one by one.
The meter-high hole is exposed in front of everyone.
When Professor Qi's teacher saw the hole, the expression on his face suddenly became ugly. He lowered his head and raised his chest, and said, "It's too late."
Professor Qi didn't quite understand it at the time, but when he and the teacher entered the cemetery, he knew why the teacher was so bowed and so late that not a single valuable object was left in the ancient tomb.
, a mummified body was left behind, and even the funerary objects in the coffin were removed.
"This is my first time going to a cemetery. It's ironic to say that the teacher and I didn't have to do anything. The tomb robbers had already cleared everything, and all that was left to us was this mummy."
Professor Qi said somewhat self-deprecatingly that when he went to the tomb, he and the teacher just carried out the coffin. It was more like finishing the coffin for those tomb robbers.
"Teacher, I can't blame you. Those tomb robbers are really hateful." Xuanxuan comforted her teacher and said.
"Although tomb robbers are hateful, their ability to find tombs is really good. Many hidden ancient tombs were actually found by tomb robbers first. In archeology, nine out of ten ancient tombs are empty until we discover them.
It has been visited several times by tomb robbers."
When Professor Qi said this, he showed both hatred and admiration. This expression was very complicated. Xuanxuan and the other two archaeologists all looked at him with strange expressions.
"You have only been in the industry for a short time, Xiao Chen is the oldest, and you have only visited cemeteries two or three times. When you visit more cemeteries in the future, you will find that many of these ancient tombs are actually filled with tomb robbers.
Patronized."
"Teacher, since tomb robbers are so powerful, why don't our archaeological team choose to recruit a tomb robber and let him help find tombs? Wouldn't it save a lot of things?" Xuanxuan said naturally.
"Recruitment?" Qin Yu on the side heard this and smiled helplessly. Every profession has its own rules, and the tomb robbing profession has never seen the light of day. Who dares to cooperate with government departments and agencies? This is not a good idea.
Should you give someone the handle? From now on, your personal freedom will be in their hands.
However, when Professor Qi heard Xuanxuan's words, his expression became a little unnatural, and he directly skipped the topic and continued: "However, although we did not get any valuable cultural relics in the cemetery, we later studied it
At that time, we still discovered several interesting phenomena.”
"The coffins in this ancient tomb were not stolen by the tomb robbers. From the written records on the coffin board, we can find that the owner of this ancient tomb is a fourth-grade civil servant "Zhongxian Dafu", which is equivalent to the current department-level cadre.
"
"But the strange thing is that when my teacher and I were studying the clothes on the mummy, we discovered something strange. The official uniform worn by this fourth-grade civil servant was actually embroidered with unicorn patches. Xuanxuan, tell me about this.
What’s the strange thing about it?”
While Professor Qi was telling stories, he also did not forget to examine his students.
"What's so difficult about this? The fourth-grade civil servants of the Qing Dynasty should have mandarin duck patterns embroidered on their official uniforms, while the unicorn beast is the official uniform of the first-grade military ministers. Teacher, am I right?" Xuanxuan answered without hesitation.
.
"The answer is correct, but the teacher's question is not over yet." Professor Qi smiled and said meaningfully: "In addition to these strange official uniforms, the teacher and I also found a python robe under the mummy's body.
What's going on? It's strange enough that a fourth-rank minister is wearing the official uniform of a first-rank military minister, but why is there a python robe? These fourth-rank ministers may never have the opportunity to see the emperor in their lifetime." (To be continued.)
