"Okay, let me talk about this tomb."
Jin Buhuan did not refuse, and directly told everyone: "The structure of tombs in the Eastern Han Dynasty mostly adopted the form of "front hall and back chamber", that is, there is a front hall in front of the tomb and a tomb chamber in the back."
"On the top of tomb chambers, there is often an overturned bucket caisson, which is a well-like structure based on a square and spreading to the four corners. The top is flat and looks like an inverted bucket. This kind of decoration was very popular in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Popular. In addition, there will be some murals and brick carvings on the walls of the tomb, mostly related to religion, history and mythology."
"The great tombs of the Western Han Dynasty have always given people a sense of mystery. The tombs are mainly earth pit tombs with vertical pits. Most of them have no coffins and have a two-story platform. Some of the higher-standard tombs have wooden coffin heads. In addition, There are also some tombs with vertical caves and straight tunnels without coffins. In terms of burial style, influenced by Qin culture, most of them are buried with the body bent and lying on the back, which is in line with the development of tombs during the Warring States and Qin Dynasties."
"Everyone, please move your eyes and observe carefully. This tomb has a tomb passage, a corridor, a south ear chamber, a north ear chamber, a middle chamber and a back chamber. The main chamber has a coffin bed for placing coffins..."
"According to various signs, this tomb is undoubtedly from the Western Han Dynasty!"
The knowledge points that Jin Buhuan mastered were all acquired through genuine study at university, rather than through information prompts in his mind.
Guo Chunjiang was shocked, and his original disapproval was changed by this seemingly ordinary small businessman.
"Since you can identify that this is a tomb from the Western Han Dynasty, can you guess the identity of the tomb owner based on these clues?"
"Professor Guo, you are deliberately testing my ability."
Jin Buhuan smiled and said: "We haven't opened the sarcophagus of this tomb yet. The funerary objects inside are an important basis for confirming the identity of the owner of the tomb. We haven't seen the funerary objects inside yet, so we can't determine who the owner of the tomb is yet."
"However, one thing I can be sure of is that the owner of this tomb should have held the first-level title of prince king during his lifetime."
Guo Chunjiang's brows trembled, slightly surprised, and couldn't help asking: "Do you have any basis for this?"
The establishment of titles has been established since the pre-Qin Dynasty in China. According to the "Book of Rites: Kingship", "the king's system includes five levels: Duke, Marquis, Bo, Son, and Male."
"After the fall of the Qin Dynasty, the rulers of the Han Dynasty learned from the experiences and lessons of the previous dynasty. On the basis of inheriting the twenty-level title system, they also established the first-level title of princes and kings."
"The trend of lavish burials was prevalent in the Western Han Dynasty. From the emperor to the common people, they all spent their financial resources on lavish burials. According to historical records, one-third of the tax collected every year in the Western Han Dynasty would be used to build the emperor's tomb."
"This ancient tomb is an earthen pit with a vertical pit structure. It faces east and west. Its plane is slightly convex. It is divided into three parts: the tomb passage, the small side chamber, and the main chamber. There is only a tomb chamber and no temple. Naturally, it has the specifications of the first-class title of a prince. , demonstrating its noble status.”
"Okay! Very exciting!"
Professor Guo Chunjiang was full of praise for Jin Buhuan's outstanding talent, and investigated several extremely tricky academic issues one after another. Jin Buhuan responded with ease, which shocked Guo Chunjiang. Therefore, he immediately exchanged contact information with Jin Buhuan and said with praise.
"With your talent, you should focus on academic research. Trading antiques is really burying your talents. You should do more meaningful things!"
Jin Buhuan smiled in return and remained silent.
If it had been a few months ago, my mother had not suffered a sudden illness, and in order to raise money for her mother's treatment, I had taken a desperate risk and almost blinded myself. If his girlfriend Shen Shenyi didn't leave him, if it weren't for the billion-dollar goal of dating Qin Xong...
Perhaps Jin Buhuan really wanted to be a scholar, to focus wholeheartedly on academic research, without being caught up in the trivial things of daily life, and to stay away from the fireworks of the world.
Reality requires that you cannot be so willful.
In addition to his promise to Qin Xang's mother, Jin Buhuan also shouldered the important task of building roads for the village.
Now, he is no longer just fighting for himself, but shouldering the expectations of many people and unable to stop on the road to making money.
Professor Guo Chunjiang was unmoved when he saw Jin Buhuan. He sighed and said: "Everyone has their own pursuits and beliefs. I can't force you. If you change your mind one day and want to continue your studies, remember to come to me. My place as a graduate student at the university will always be reserved for you.”
"Thank you, Professor Guo."
...
After recording the confession, the sky was getting brighter. Jin Buhuan and Xiang Di walked calmly down the mountain. Along the way, Jin Buhuan had many thoughts and remained silent.
Once, a few months ago, if a graduate student spot was offered to him, he would definitely accept it without hesitation. Now, however, he has lost his original enthusiasm and interest.
Seeing Jin Buhuan's distracted look, Xiang Di comforted him: "Boss, I think this graduate student is useless. You don't need to waste your time on it."
"What do you mean?"
"I think the doctoral students led by Mr. Guo are average and not as outstanding as you. You have surpassed the level of a doctor. You have strength but you don't need a diploma to prove it."
Although Xiang Di's words were rough, they made sense, and Jin Buhuan suddenly understood.
"Yes, after getting a graduate degree, isn't the ultimate goal to join the archaeological team? And joining the archaeological team, in the final analysis, isn't it just for the salary?"
"Now, my career prospects are bright, much better than those in the archaeological team. As for purely academic research, I am now engaged in the antique industry, and I can also conduct academic research, which is no worse than being in the archaeological team!"
Seeing that his boss's mood became brighter, Xiang Di took out a jade pendant from his pocket.
"Boss, what is the origin of this thing? Is it valuable?"
"Han Dynasty topaz dragon-shaped ornaments. The jade material is exquisite and rare. The shape is powerful and the lines are smooth. If you meet a player who likes this thing, there is no problem in selling it for 1.8 million. Where did you get this kind of thing?"
Jin Buhuan understood something instantly. He quickly looked back to make sure no one was following him, and then lowered his voice and asked, "Did you take this from the cemetery?!"
"yes!"
Xiang Di said angrily: "We fought fiercely with Jiang Hua all night, but the police didn't even say a basic thank you. I was so angry that I just took something away."
"You, you..."
Jin Buqiang was so angry that he pointed at Bai Hu and cursed: "If we are discovered, we will be like Jiang Hua, unable to eat and walk around!"
"The matter is so serious!"
Xiang Di also looked a little panicked and asked worriedly: "Then how about I go back to the police to return it now?"
"We can't return it. If we return it now, we will be convicted of theft!"
Jin Buhuan put the jade pendant into his pocket and said: "Leave the jade pendant here with me. As soon as I return to the city, I will find someone to deal with it. You can't talk about this to death, and you can't admit it when others ask. Do you understand? "
Jin Buhuan put the jade pendant into his pocket and warned: "Leave the jade pendant here for now. When I get back to the city, I will find someone to deal with it immediately. You have to keep this matter a secret. No matter how others ask, you cannot admit it. Do you understand?" "
"Don't worry, boss, even if you beat me to death, I won't admit it! Even if you beat me to death, you won't be able to say it!"
...
It was late at night when the two of them got home. They lay in bed exhausted and didn't get up until noon the next day.
Jin Buhuan was worried about the jade pendant and decided to take Qian Yaoming and others back to the city. After lunch, when they were about to ask their mother to go back to the city, they found that her mother came back with an angry face.
"What bastard would do such an immoral thing!"
"Mom, who provoked you and made you so angry?"
"Can you not be angry? Our vegetable garden is growing very well, but some people just have itchy hands. Not only do they steal it, but they also pull out the seedlings! It's really too much!"
"What!……"
Jin Buhuan hurriedly ran to the vegetable garden, and what he saw in front of him shocked him. The papaya tree was chopped down, the ground was in chaos, vegetable seedlings and melon vines were pulled out, and the vegetable garden that was originally full of life was now barren.
At this time, Bai Hu and Bai Long also chased after him. After seeing this scene, the two asked: "Boss, have you offended anyone in the village?"
"Liu Dayong!"
He donated 500,000 yuan to the village to build roads. The villagers were very grateful for this and would not do this. The only person who could do such a thing was Liu Dayong, who had a history with him.
"Xiang Tian, Xiang Di, go together and find Liu Dayong for me!"
"Yes! Boss." The two of them responded in unison.
