Treasure Hunting Divine Eyes

  Chapter 180 Jade Artifacts of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods

  The treasure of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, finally appeared in the world after two thousand years. This moment affects the hearts of countless people.

   Opening the box to see the treasure, this first treasure made everyone excited, it is suspected to be the night pearl of the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

  Ye Mingzhu is priceless, even the gloomy wooden box and the gloomy wooden cage are amazingly valuable, after all, they are ancient relics from two thousand years ago, and they are still mechanism boxes of pure wooden falcon structure.

   "Teacher Zheng, for the record, the first one is a night pearl before Qin."

"good."

  Being able to witness this historical moment with his own eyes, Zheng Bin has nothing else to ask for.

   Then came the second wooden box. After opening it in the same way, it was another luminous pearl.

   "The Great Qin gathered the wealth of the six countries, and Xiang Yu plundered the wealth of the Great Qin. He buried the most valuable part, and now it has become the treasure of our Chinese nation."

   Li Mo sighed.

   After the two night pearls are registered, they are placed in a special glass box with hidden surveillance on it for 24 hours without interruption.

   "Teacher, let's take a look at this second box."

  It is everyone's dream to open the box by hand, but Zhu Changping shook his head and said, "This honor belongs to you alone, Xiao Mo, go ahead and open it."

  The three curators around him also nodded one after another. If there is no Li Mo, I am afraid that the treasure may not be able to be born in two thousand years. They are purely in his favor.

   Follow him into the annals of history, such a big honor is enough, and I am afraid that it will become sour if you are greedy.

  Li Mo stopped talking and cut off the second lock. After opening the lid, there are neat small wooden boxes inside. The small wooden box is made of ordinary materials, and it has a tendency to rot when touched lightly. Some have completely rotted away, exposing the contents inside.

   This box is full of jade articles.

  Li Mo carefully took out one, and took out a dragon-shaped jade pendant from the corrupted box. He opened his different pupils, and the three-colored light shone from the jade pendant.

   Hey, Yitong still has such a reaction. The Qin Dynasty determined that it was a purple-gold halo, the Qin and Han dynasties were lighter in color, and it was a golden halo, and in the Shang and Zhou dynasties it was a colorful halo. Seeing that this jade pendant was also before the Qin Dynasty and after the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, there is a high probability that it is from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

   "The shape of a jade dragon is matched with one piece. Judging from the shape and carving texture, it is close to the late Spring and Autumn Period and the early Warring States period."

Zheng Bin recorded what he said verbatim. After the jade pendant was placed, other people came forward to study it. The three curators often saw such jade pendants. Curator Shi nodded and said: "The Jade Museum of the Kyoto Museum There is such a similar thing, it is in the late Spring and Autumn Period, and Xiaomo's identification is very accurate."

   "Hey, this second piece is a bit rare, it seems to be a necklace made of crystal."

  Li Mo picked up the second slightly larger wooden box, and lay a string of crystal clear bead necklaces quietly in it. The beads reflected a crystal luster under the light, but I don't know what was used to wear the beads, it was completely dry and black, and a few beads had scattered.

  Zhu Changping carefully picked up a bead, took a picture with the magnifying glass he carried with him, checked it from multiple angles, and said: "It is indeed a crystal product, Curator Fu, take a look too."

  The other experts got started one by one, and finally returned to Li Mo's hands.

  "A Warring States crystal cup was unearthed before, and I thought it was a modern product. Now a string of crystal necklaces has been unearthed. I don't know if it is from the Spring and Autumn Period or the Warring States Period?"

  Curator Fu's face flushed, it should be caused by too much emotion. This string of crystal necklaces is another national treasure after restoration.

  Li Mo counted the number of crystal beads and said: "A string of crystal necklaces from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the number of crystals is 34."

  Next was a long box, about 50 centimeters long. Li Mo took it out and put it on the table, and the camera was already focused. Obviously, the things contained in such a long box must be too long. I don't know what kind of jade it is.

  Open the box, and what everyone sees is a jade belt. Each piece of jade is top-grade suet jade, with four corners covered in gold and small characters engraved on the surface. Li Mo recognized the characters and said, "This character is not the seal script of the Qin Dynasty. Teacher, you all have to read it."

  Zhu Changping looked at it and said: "This is the Wei State characters in the Warring States Period. Professor Zhang is the best at studying ancient characters in this area. Let him decipher it later to identify who used it."

   "Teacher Zheng, a Warring States Gold Bao Yuyu belt, please note that Professor Zhang of Beijing University will translate the text."

   Zheng Bin was busy recording.

  Because they are all jade wares, and there are several experts around, the speed of sorting out and preliminary identification of jade wares is accelerated.

"A jade animal mask, early Spring and Autumn; a jade belt hook, late Spring and Autumn; an agate bead, late Spring and Autumn; a jade tiger, early Spring and Autumn; a jade ring, early Spring and Autumn; a jade tube, late Spring and Autumn ; Jade group wearing a piece, the early Warring States period."

  Zhu Changping opened a bottle of water and handed it to Li Mo, who temporarily took over from Li Mo to continue the finishing work below.

"A jade double dragon pendant, early Warring States period; a jade double dragon pendant, early Warring States period; a jade belt hook in the shape of an animal face, mid Warring States period; a jade jade dragon and two bird patterns, mid Warring States period; a jade pendant double dragon pendant , Late Warring States period."

  There are only two night pearls in the first tin box, and a total of fifteen pieces are sorted out in the second tin box, all of which are jade articles from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

   After drinking a bottle of water, Li Mo opened the third iron box, which also contained jade articles.

   It took nearly 40 minutes to sort out a total of 17 pieces of jade, five of which were from the Qin Dynasty, and their carvings were slightly different from those of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. At that time, the Great Qin Dynasty unified the six countries, the vehicles were on the same track, the books were on the same text, and the national power once reached its peak, so the concept of jade carving began to change.

  The jade carving skills really changed dramatically in the Han Dynasty, and the most famous one is the Han Eight Swords, which has been affecting until now.

   "Xiaomo, come here first when unpacking in the morning. Let's go out and have a rest. Others will take over and clean up and file these jade and night pearls into storage, and continue unpacking in the afternoon."

  The work of these appraisals may not seem heavy, but it is actually very mentally exhausting, and it is an antique more than 2,000 years ago. Each of them is very precious, which makes everyone in a state of tension.

  Li Mo was fine, but Zhu Changping and the others were visibly tired. They left the underground treasure house, and the second group of people entered within ten minutes.

   "Teacher, according to the unpacking speed, these more than 30 iron boxes may take four to five days."

   "Archaeological research is a delicate job. You think it's digging Chinese cabbage in the ground. Unpacking is not the point. The point is to clean up every treasure inside, register it, and file it into the warehouse."

   "I don't know if the two legendary treasures will be hidden in the remaining metal boxes?"

   Li Mo muttered to himself.

   Curator Shi who followed behind asked curiously: "Xiao Mo, which of the two treasures are you talking about?"

   "Nature is the second treasure of Spring and Autumn, the legendary Heshibi and Suihouzhu."
