Chapter 701 Bronze Heavy Ware
Although the aftershock level also participated in the construction of this platform, after several years, he also forgot almost it. After a few minutes of knocking, the sound of "empty" came from a place.
The aftershock flat was overjoyed. He picked it in that place with his hand, and then pulled it out. A blue brick was taken out by him, and a musty smell came out of it.
After pulling out the green bricks, the aftershock looked around, went to the back of the door, took a bronze that was a little green and had three forks at one end, inserted the fork into the green brick just now, and broke it hard, and several blue bricks next to it were scattered on the ground.
"Boss Ren, wait, don't do it first..."
The aftershock flat motion was too fast. As soon as Zhuang Rui put his eyes on the object in his hand, he had already moved his hand. Zhuang Rui grabbed the bronze in his hand and looked at it carefully.
In the three forked places, one of them has been bent off by the aftershock level, which makes Zhuang Rui very distressed. This object is an antique candlestick, and which one is directly placed on the ground?
Compared with the number of unearthed enemies, it is only 40 or 50 centimeters long. The candlestick placed on the table, which is about 1.5 meters long, is extremely rare.
You know, before the Qin and Han Dynasties, although the underground was empty! $ Source, but the ancients' technology of refining steel was very backward. At that time, only copperware could be refined, and the quantity was also very scarce.
Like ordinary people, they have no opportunity and qualification to own bronze products at all. Only some nobles or princes and generals can use bronzeware, and most of them are used for sacrifices. It is estimated that only the princes can afford candlesticks at home.
Therefore, before the Qin and Han Dynasties, bronze ware was a symbol of status. For example, a bronze carriage unearthed in Hubei, if put in modern times, it is definitely a Rolls-Royce silver charm level, and it is a handmade limited edition.
Although this bronze candlestick is full of copper rust, it is not very eye-catching. If you get it in the antique market, it can be worth ten or more than ten thousand yuan. Zhuang Rui doesn't want to be ruined by the aftershock.
"Boss Ren, change what a guy, Ji Ranxi is also an antique..."
Feeling the strong aura in the bronze ware, Zhuang Rui no longer allowed the aftershock to be used. According to the agreement between himself and the police, this object may be placed in his own museum.
"Hey hey, Boss Zhuang, you won't care about this thing later..."
When Yu Zhenping saw Zhuang Rui's baby, he shook his head and smiled disapprovingly. Then he found a crowbar that had been left before in the yard, and returned to the kitchen and became busy again.
Maybe it's because he will never come back in the future. The aftershock flat action is very strong. After a while, the kitchen will be smoky, and Zhuang Rui can only retreat to the door and wait.
"Boss Zhuang 1 Come in...+'
Hearing the aftershock's greeting, Zhuang Rui walked in again. As soon as he entered the room, he was almost choked by the dust flying all over the sky.
Looking at the aftershock, the buddy's hair was full of dust, and he suddenly looked like an old man with gray hair.
After Zhuang Rui's eyes stopped slightly on the aftershock level, he was attracted by a round-belled bronze tripod that appeared at the original stone platform.
Zhuang Rui seemed to be pulled by a rope. He involuntarily walked towards the bronze tripod and subconsciously asked, "Boss Ren, is this the bronze heavy weapon you are talking about?"
"Yes, Boss Zhuang, take your time. I'll show you what's inside..." Yu Jinping nodded, walked out of the room with a crowbar, and slapped outside.
"Damn it, how did they move in with such a big thing?"
Peng Fei walked into the kitchen and couldn't help but be surprised to see this thing. The height of this bronze tripod is definitely more than 1.2 meters. The thick tripod body, three tripods, add up to at least four or five hundred catties, and it is difficult to carry without using a crane.
Peng Fei didn't know that this thing was placed here with a small crane when he was building this house, and this kitchen was built to place the tripod.
This thing once made Boss Yu scratch his head. It's a pity to give up, but it can't be traded, so I kept it here, but I didn't expect to make it cheaper for Zhuang Rui. Of course, whether Zhuang Rui can get this thing depends on whether the relevant departments are happy or not.
"Priceless treasure, real priceless treasure...''
Zhuang Rui's body was half squatted, his hands stroked on the bronze tripod, and his eyes were full of intoxicated look. Although the "dging light sword" he had found before was precious and worth no less than this bronze tripod, in terms of shape, the big guy in front of him was obviously more shocking.
Zhuang Rui has basically visited the museums in Beijing and $$ City. There are also many bronze heavy utensils in it, and there are many bronze tripods, but in terms of volume, there is no one that can be compared with it, and the appearance is rarely more beautiful and simple.
Zhuang Rui roughly measured it by hand. The height of this bronze tripod should be about 1.5 meters, with a caliber of about e0 centimeters. The upper edge is flat and polished very smooth. At the edge of the mouth, there are two heights in more than 20. The ear picture is large and thick, with Kui-shaped decoration on it, The most common.
At the round bronze tripod, there are three-pillar feet, and the outer wall of the abdomen has three semi-circular ears, corresponding to the three-pillar feet. The upper part of the abdomen is decorated with three animal face lines. Under each animal face pattern, a cow head is embossed, and each column foot is also decorated with a relief
This bronze tripod is the most gorgeous and tedious shape Zhuang Rui has seen. Those cow-headed reliefs alone can't be made by ordinary craftsmen. What makes Zhuang Rui stunned most is that there are dozens of inscriptions on the inner wall of this tripod.
You should know that whether bronzeware has inscriptions or not is an extremely important criterion for measuring its value. Not to mention now, before liberation, blue and silverware with inscriptions were often worth a thousand words.
There used to be a patriotic collector in the capital. In order to buy a bronze ware with inscriptions from a group of foreign adventure merchants, he spent 400,000 yuan on the ocean at that time. Even if the price is now, it is an astronomical figure.
"I picked up the treasure, and the other mothers picked up the treasure..."
Zhuang Rui was excited to put cypress on the bronze tripod. He also made up his mind to pull this bronze tripod to his own museum. Even if he put pressure on the local museum through Ouyang Zhenwu, he did not hesitate, because this bronze tripod was really too valuable.
From these inscriptions, it can not only prove the origin of the bronze ware, but also have a very high research value for the social development and form at that time.
Zhuang Rui believes that once this tripod comes out, it will definitely cause a great sensation in the domestic collection world, archaeology and historians, and its effect should not be under his legendary "sword".
According to Zhuang Rui's understanding of the bronze tripod, in addition to the Simu Wufang tripod, which weighs 84 kilograms, I'm afraid that the tripod dug out from the pit of the First Emperor of Qin is not as thick and generous as the one in front of him.
And there is another unique thing about this tripod, that is, in the three semicircular ears on its ventral wall, Zhuang Rui has seen a lot of bronze tripods, but with this feature, it seems that only JL is Chunhua tripod in Chunhua County, Shaanxi Province.
However, there is no inscription in the famous bronze heavy weapon, which is slightly inferior to this tripod.
It can be imagined that if this bronze tripod is placed in its own museum, it will definitely gather many experts and scholars in China. Even if they don't charge their own fees and let them help the museum make a name, it's not a big problem, right?
Although he knew that this bronze tripod would not be stolen by anyone, Zhuang Rui still turned around step by step out of the low kitchen. After seeing the shock, he immediately asked, "Boss Ren, I don't know what this tripod is..."
"Huh? Boss Zhuang, this is not in compliance..."
The aftershock flat frowned. Although everyone knows the origin of this object, I can't let you describe the situation of tomb robbery, right?
"Oh... hey, that's not what I mean. Boss Ren, as you know, if I want to put this thing out, I have a reasonable origin. Even if it is taken back from abroad, I also want to know which tomb this thing probably comes from, right?"
Zhuang Rui frowned when he saw Yu Zhenping and quickly explained it. Originally, he asked casually, but Yu Zhenping must be the main figure who stole this bronze tripod. If he could know the source from him, he would have lost a lot of research time in the future.
"Henan, Luoyang, five women's tombs..."
After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Yu Jinping spit out these words from his mouth. This was also all the way and he didn't feel any danger. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said anything about killing Yu Jinping.
"It's a big deal, the boss is really a big deal..."
Zhuang Rui's words are sincere. The country's local archaeological team has such convenient conditions. It took decades of busy work before digging out a Chunhua tripod.
And a few tomb robbers in this area easily summoned such a heavy weapon that would make a sensation in the archaeological world. Zhuang Rui was really ashamed of those archaeological experts.
"All right, Boss Zhuang, let's take a look at the things in the room. If there is nothing wrong, our deal will be concluded, right?"
Yu Jinping didn't want to talk more about tomb robbery. He opened the door of the small building with the key, but he didn't go in immediately, but opened the door for ventilation. He hadn't been here for almost a year, and the smell in the room was absolutely bad.
"Of course, it's just that tripod, it's worth the price we talked about earlier..."
Zhuang Rui nodded very single, and his cheerful attitude also relieved the aftershock.
