My system is not decent

During the period of the Republic of China, some scholars believed that "Da Yu was a worm", which was an ancient myth, not a real historical figure.

Some foreign scholars even doubt the authenticity and reliability of China's 5000-year history of civilization.

But if there is no Dayu, there will be no Xia founded by Xia Qi, the son of Dayu, and there will be no "Huaxia".

The discovery of the inscription by Xiong Gong brought the records of Dayu's flood control earlier by 700 years.

This is the earliest and most detailed reliable written record about Dayu known so far.

This national treasure fully shows that as early as 2900 years ago, people were widely extolling the achievements of Dayu.

The idea that Xia is the head of the "Three Dynasties" has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people as early as the Western Zhou Dynasty.

According to the research of modern literature and history experts, Dayu's water control was not simply to control floods, but re-divided Kyushu in the process of water control.

The division of Kyushu had such a profound impact on China that even in the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty still followed the Kyushu system left by Dayu.

"Kyushu" is an important geographical change in the development of ancient Chinese civilization, and this change was created by Dayu in the process of water control.

The appearance of Xiong Gongyu not only proves that Dayu's water control is not a legend, but also advances the literature records of Dayu's water control by at least 700 years.

It's just a pity that people today don't know where that piece of Xuan Gongqi came from and how it was lost overseas.

In modern times, our national treasures and cultural relics have been lost overseas like floods.

For example, the oracle bone inscriptions in Xiaotun Village, Yang’an, the scriptural murals in the Mogao Grottoes in Huangdun, and the Eastern Zhou royal tombs in Yangluojin Village…

According to incomplete statistics, there are more than 47 museums in 200 countries around the world that have Chinese cultural relics in their collections.

And there are countless Chinese cultural relics that have been lost overseas, and this does not include those private collections that have never seen the light of day!

Looking back on the past few years, the first horses in the Old Summer Palace have returned to the garden, and the lost British cultural relics have returned to China.

As well as Chinese collectors in the auction field, national treasures such as "Yongle Canon" and "Five Kings Returning Drunk" were auctioned in global auctions.

This can't help but make people expect that those national treasures lost all over the world will eventually return to their homeland.

"This baby, it's a little hot for us to keep in our hands!"

After reading the information for a while, Li Jinli finally understood what the appearance of this bronze vessel meant.

"Hmm!" Chen Wenzhe said a little depressed.

Now he just cleaned up the patina on the outside a little bit, and he knew that although this bronze ware was similar in appearance to Xiong Gong, the inscriptions recorded inside should be completely different.

It is not easy to study clearly what is written in the inscription inside.

This national treasure, Xuan Gongyu, was accidentally discovered by experts from the Poly Art Museum in the spring of 2002 in the overseas cultural relics market.

At that time, its cover was lost, and only the body remained, and most of it was covered by rust, and some of the inscriptions revealed were ancient and difficult to decipher.

Later, after more than two months of research and appraisal by dozens of experts, it was believed that this was a bronze ritual vessel made by a certain generation of monarch of the Kingdom of Yang in the middle of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

This Kingdom is "Sui Kingdom", which is a country established by the descendants of Shun, one of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, according to legends in ancient Chinese history.

The 98-character long inscription cast on it begins with the words: "Heaven ordered Yu to apply the soil, follow (fall) the mountain, and dredge the river...".

These inscriptions record that Dayu used the methods of leveling some hills, blocking floods and dredging rivers to calm the floods, demarcated Kyushu, and stipulated their respective tributes according to the different land conditions in each place.

The inscription also expounds morality and virtuous government in large sections, and teaches the people to act virtuously.

The ancients said: A piece of bronze with long inscriptions is enough to cover a piece of "Shangshu".

It is said that discovering a long bronze inscription is like discovering an important ancient document equivalent to "Shangshu".

The inscription on that object is not only long in number of words, but also completely different from the bronze inscriptions on names and chronicles found in the past. It can be called a political prose.

Its style and format are unprecedented and unique, and its content is extremely important.

Also, the diction and style of the inscription on that national treasure are very close to the existing ancient documents such as "Shangshu".

Its discovery is also of great value in exploring the origin of ancient Chinese books.

This is what makes Chen Wenzhe a headache. The higher the value, the less selfish he can be.

Of course, it is not impossible for him to study it with all his heart, and to understand the inscription on this treasure and the meaning of the content described in it.

Standing on the shoulders of his predecessors, he can still do it, but it takes a lot of energy.

And if you don’t want to, ask someone else to help you.

That way, the thing can't be hidden.

As for this kind of heavy treasure, as long as people know about it, it will definitely cause trouble.

"We still need to bring it back to the sky!"

Soon, Chen Wenzhe made a decision. He couldn't be too selfish, because this could establish history, and it was very important for the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties.

Already planning to expose it, Chen Wenzhe didn't worry about it anymore.

Today's harvest was not small, and he also wanted to see what was recorded in this piece, so he went straight back to the copperware factory in the development zone.

There are many suitable tools here, which are helpful for repairing this bronze.

Therefore, in the next few days, Chen Wenzhe carefully gave it a sheet metal job.

The general shape of the device has been repaired, and now it is rust removal!

The bronze wares excavated by archeology, because they have been buried in the ground for a long time, after thousands of years of water immersion and soil burial, they will definitely cause qualitative changes in the bronze itself, transforming the metal from an elemental state to a compound state, forming copper rust.

Due to the difference in copper quality and the different water and soil conditions, the rust color has various colors such as red, green, blue, black, purple, gray, etc., and it is mottled, forming a unique solemn and simple aesthetic feeling of ancient bronzes.

The rust layer of ancient bronze wares is extremely complicated and has many layers. Some rusts cover up the patterns or inscriptions of bronze wares, and even deform the wares and lose their original appearance.

Therefore, removing those harmful rusts is one of the important tasks in the protection and treatment of bronze wares.

In the past, the rust removal method of bronze wares was to hammer and shake with carving knives, chisels, hammers, chisels, etc. to remove rust.

When hammering, the position should be accurate and the force should be appropriate.

Although this method is simple, it is easy to damage the original device, especially the inscriptions and decorative parts.

So it must be carefully removed and brushed clean.

This is good rust, and good rust, and where there is good rust, there is bad rust.

Rust removal has become an essential thing now.

Because with the passage of time, after the layer of rust covering the inscription on the outside of the bronze was cleared, Chen Wenzhe discovered that the little green powdery rust inside was really not a good rust.

Previously he only saw some green powder, which was not serious, but now he can be sure that it is harmful rust.

If this is really harmful rust, the bronze will surely be destroyed if it is not preserved.
