Returning to the company, his comrades rushed forward.
They were separated for no more than a month, but it felt like they had been separated for a year.
The new recruits in the class, except for Hu Xinrui, who had not been seen for a long time, all became black and strong.
The new platoon leader who came to the platoon was named Yan. He was from the country of Yan. He was a cadre who had directly joined the army from a local college student. From the perspective of respecting talents, he was placed in the command platoon. But judging from the reactions of the old squad leader Huang Zhonghe and the squad veteran Luo Shaohuan, it seems that everyone has a lot of opinions about the new platoon leader.
Wang Ke didn't stay long and rushed to the company headquarters immediately to report to company commander Bearded Tian, instructor Ding and deputy company commander Lu Zeran.
Seeing the company leader, all the soldiers in the company no longer had any rules to follow, and they all surrounded him. Including the health worker Yu Deben, the correspondent Xiao Hou, and the clerk. Everyone was asking questions about what he, the archaeological team that participated in the joint inspection, had seen and heard. But this can't be explained clearly in one or two sentences.
He could only briefly talk about the investigation of the ancient well, underground river and source, but did not mention anything about his rescue of people from the waterfall sinkhole.
But this was enough, and he talked endlessly for more than twenty minutes.
The three company leaders were very satisfied.
After walking out of the door, Captain Big Beard Tian chased him out and said to Wang Ke: "Reconnaissance squad leader, I have something to explain to you alone." Captain Big Beard Tian looked around and saw that no one was around. He was under the tree in the yard. He stood and said to Wang Ke: "Have you met your new platoon leader? He is enthusiastic and motivated. But he does not have enough work experience in the unit. As the reconnaissance squad leader, you should help him more."
"Yes! Company commander, I have heard what the comrades in the squad and platoon have said."
"He is a college student cadre, so it is normal for him to be acclimated. He has many ideas, and you must be good at understanding them. If any conflicts or problems arise at work, you must cooperate more and inform the company leader in a timely manner."
"Yes, I understand. Please rest assured, company commander, I know how to do it."
"By the way, like you, he has not joined the organization. But he is in a very urgent mood. This is also related to the overall situation of our army attaching great importance to college student cadres." Wang Ke really didn't understand what the company commander said. What does it mean? Develop immediately?
After bidding farewell to Company Commander Bearded Tian, Wang Ke went directly to the second platoon. He missed Platoon Commander Hu Zhijun very much.
As soon as they saw platoon leader Hu Zhijun, the two immediately crowded together. For Wang Ke, Second Platoon Commander Hu Zhijun is also a brother, mentor and friend.
"you lost weight."
"You've lost weight too."
Wang Ke took out the small Yan coin from his pocket and handed it to the platoon leader Hu Zhijun, "For you, platoon leader, this is a real Yan State sword coin. At that time, the Yan State was equivalent to thirty or fifty today." Yuanba, you can buy a cow, and its collection value is also very high now."
Platoon leader Hu Zhijun was very happy when he saw it. "Reconnaissance squad leader, I recently wrote another poem. Can you give me some pointers to see if I have made any progress?" As he said that, platoon leader Hu Zhijun dug out a stack of written window paper and found the poem.
"Platoon leader, your calligraphy has improved greatly and you are becoming more sophisticated!"
"You have to give this one to me!"
Think about it, is this the first picture the platoon leader has written for himself? One was given to Wu Xiangyu and their section chief, and another one was finally made, which was originally intended to be sent to Wu Xiangyu. But Professor Ye Rongguang took it away, and I still don’t have one. "Platoon leader, why don't you write another one and give it to me too."
"Why do you want so many paintings?" asked platoon leader Hu Zhijun, but people who engage in calligraphy and painting like others to ask for their works. It is a happy thing to be appreciated by others.
Immediately, platoon leader Hu Zhijun took out a pen and paper, spread it on the table, and wrote another picture in a flash.
After getting these two works with poems written by Ma Huaisu, a great poet of the Tang Dynasty, Wang Ke went back happily. He made a plan, framed it, kept one for himself, and sent the remaining one to Wu Xiangyu. The last time I presented this piece of work to the director of the department, I almost fell out, and of these two pieces, it was obvious that both of them were better than before.
"Hey, Scout Squad Leader, let me tell you something, I almost forgot."
"Platoon leader, what's going on?"
Platoon leader Hu Zhijun lowered his voice when he saw that no one was around, and told Wang Ke: "Do you know my teacher? I once told you that he is the direct descendant of Wang Xizhi, the calligrapher of the Jin Dynasty."
Wang Ke nodded. Hu Zhijun, the second platoon leader, had told him before.
"My teacher recently sent me three authentic paintings passed down by my ancestor Wang Xizhi."
"Ah! It's true."
Wang Xizhi is known as the sage of calligraphy in the Jin Dynasty and a descendant of the Langya Wang family in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Starting from his grandfather Wang Dao, the prime minister of the Western Jin Dynasty, his father and uncle were both calligraphers. Wang Xizhi studied under Mrs. Wei, a famous calligrapher at that time, and Mrs. Wei was a student of Zhong Yao, a famous calligrapher in the Han Dynasty. Wang Xizhi served as right-hand man when he was young. The general of the army led the troops to fight and conquered the world. The preface to Lanting, which is known as the best in the world, is that Wang Xizhi invited a group of military talents to drink and have fun in Kuaiji Mountain, reciting poems and composing poems, and the whole thing was completed at the banquet.
After the Wei and Jin Dynasties, Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, highly praised his calligraphy and was a hardcore fan, including Ouyang Xun, Yan Zhenqing and Liu Gongquan, the four masters of regular script in the Tang Dynasty. When I first started calligraphy, I was a fan of Wang Xizhi. After Li Shimin's death, the preface to the Lanting Collection was buried with him and has not been seen for more than a thousand years.
There are very few authentic works by Wang Xizhi!
"I'll show it to you for appreciation." Then, platoon leader Hu Zhiqing took out a Red Flag magazine from his empty shell box. Then he respectfully placed the magazine on the kang and opened it. As he opened it, he said, "It's a pity that these three original paintings were torn into pieces by the rebels during the ten years of turmoil. Our teacher worked for several days to put together these three paintings, and just one corner fell off."
Having said this, Wang Ke saw that there were indeed three yellowed paper fragments in the magazine, about the size of two palms, mounted on rice paper. One was in small regular script and the other two were in cursive script. Floating like floating clouds, as sharp as a frightening dragon.
"The teacher asked me to go to Liulichang when I go to Kyoto one day and help him change some money to supplement his family's income," said platoon leader Hu Zhijun.
"Is your teacher so difficult?"
"There is nothing we can do about our family's declining fortunes in the Yimeng Mountains."
"Platoon leader, how much do you think these fragments can be exchanged for?"
"At least 10,000 each!"
The two chatted for a while before saying goodbye.
Returning to the command platoon station, I happened to meet the new platoon leader Yan Jiao. This was also the first time the two met. As soon as veteran Luo Shaohuan introduced him, Wang Ke immediately stood up at attention, saluted Yan Jiao and said: "Report to the platoon leader and reconnaissance squad leader Wang Ke to successfully complete the joint inspection and archaeological test." Team mission, return now and report to you."
The new platoon leader Yan Jiao was also unambiguous. He raised his hand and returned the salute, saying: "You, the reconnaissance squad leader, are also very busy. You go out as soon as you come back and don't ask for leave. What are you holding in your hand?"
"Reporting to the platoon leader, I went to the company headquarters to report to the company leader and cancel the fake ones. What I have in my hand are two words written by the second platoon leader for me."
"Oh, it's written by the old platoon leader. Open it and let me have a look."
Wang Ke did not dare to neglect, and immediately went to the room and opened the two words written by platoon leader Hu Zhijun on the kang.
"Well, the writing is so-so. Compared with the several paintings of Qi Baishi's calligraphy in my family's collection, it is still far behind." Platoon leader Yanjiao held his chin and said while admiring it.
Isn't Qi Baishi a great painter? Why do you also take up calligraphy? But this is what the new platoon leader Yan Jiao said, and he can only climb up along the pole.
"Platoon leader, what's Qi Baishi's calligraphy like? Bring him over and have a look when you have time!" Wang Ke deliberately teased.
"Qi Baishi is a master of calligraphy and painting. How can I just show you his calligraphy? Nowadays, one painting costs twenty or thirty thousand. No, no, no, you just have to figure it out for yourself." There was a sense of disapproval in his words. A lifetime of arrogance.
"Which one is more expensive, Qi Baishi's calligraphy or Wang Xizhi's calligraphy?" Wang Ke asked deliberately.
"Are you not being funny? Wang Xizhi's calligraphy has not been preserved in the world."
"Then what if there is!"
"If there is, I will ask my grandfather to accept it at a high price of 1 million."
"Okay, then prepare 3 million, and I will collect it for you."
"What are you bragging about?"
Wang Ke smiled and thought to himself that he had just met him, dared to take it to Kyoto Liulichang for appraisal, and he was also the direct descendant of Wang Xizhi, the calligrapher of the Jin Dynasty. Could it be fake?
"Believe it or not, I will collect three of them for you. You can go to Liulichang for appraisal before paying."
Wang Ke packed up the two words written by platoon leader Hu Zhijun and added: "I participated in the joint archaeological inspection this time and met two professors. One is a top archaeologist in the industry; the other is a top archaeologist in the industry." biologists. They all have good stuff. I don’t know how much money your grandpa has, so I’ll help you make a batch!”
"Then we have made an agreement. Do you have any photos?" New platoon leader Yan Jiao was a little excited.
"When you finalize it, I'll help you find photos. You have to rely on your strength to do this."
The new platoon leader Yan Jiao didn't believe what Wang Geng said at all, and bragging wouldn't pay taxes anyway. Bragging in this deep ravine is also a way to enrich life.
Wang Ke laid out his own equipment and organized a class meeting. Now there are only five of them in the class. Tomorrow is Sunday. When Wang Ke went out and saw the smoke on the casserole tripod, he remembered this joint archaeological inspection. Professor Wen said that the map he finally saw on the ground of the stone house believed that the end of the underground river was under the extinct volcano of Shaguoding. On a whim, he called veteran Luo Shaohuan over.
"Shao Huan, have you ever been to the casserole tripod?"
Luo Shaohuan raised his head, looked at the kilometer-high casserole cauldron, and shook his head. The troops have been stationed in this village for training for more than two months and have never been to the training camp. Sha Guoding is very different from Langya Mountain. Langya Mountain has lush vegetation, while Shaguoding is basically a stone mountain with few trees.
"Squad leader, I heard that there used to be a temple with a fairy cave next to the temple. Now few people go up there, mainly because it is too steep and the previous roads are broken."
"Want to go up and have a look?" Wang Ke asked.
"Yes, but we have no experience in climbing. If you take us there, I am willing to go. How about calling a few more? For example, three new recruits..."
"All the class, please ask, if you are willing, we will ask the platoon leader for leave." When Wang Ke said this, he especially wanted to call the second platoon leader Hu Zhijun.
