Although know the specific reason, but Jinyan is not happy, on the contrary, it makes him feel some blush. As long as we are more careful, we can find out these three places. However, it is because of his preconceived belief that the clam is formed naturally that we can never find out the evidence that this bowl is a fake.
Later, Jin Yan learned from curator Gao that Chu Chen had said the flaw before, which made him even more embarrassed.
If he is not so careless, he can easily find out such a common sense problem. This made him constantly blame himself. If he could be a little more careful, he would not have caused such losses to the museum.
After the discovery of the bowl, with the help of Chu Chen, we found five pieces of high imitation porcelain. All these porcelains, without exception, are enough to confuse the real with the fake, otherwise they will not escape the eyes of curator Gao.
Then, after comparison, Chu Chen found that the six counterfeits were all in the hands of the same person, and he also learned that they were all purchased through Zhao Yiping's so-called acquaintances or the situation like Mr. Cao before.
This discovery made Chu Chen immediately think that there may be a gang behind Zhao Yiping who makes and sells counterfeit goods with a clear division of labor. And such gangs are particularly harmful to the society and the corresponding industries,
and Chu Chen also found that among the six fakes, two of them are obviously not as good as the other four. Zhao Yiping bought these two things in the last two months. In addition, the apparently imitated statue of avalokitesvara of Dehua, which is not very good, will be one of them There will be no hidden problems, which is also worth pondering.
So Chu Chen quickly exchanged this matter with Qi Baolin.
As an experienced old criminal policeman, Qi Baolin has just learned that there should be Gang cooperation behind Zhao Yiping. However, Qi Baolin didn't consider what Chu Chen thought later. After all, he was not an expert in identification, and he couldn't cover all aspects.
Moreover, with years of intuition, he immediately felt that this might be a key issue. However, this is a local case after all. Even if he thinks too much, he can't get involved. At that time, he can only remind his local counterparts.
It is also because it is not within their jurisdiction that Li Beibei does not seem excited. Otherwise, according to her character, she would have been unable to help asking about the progress of the case.
Finally, according to statistics, the six forgeries have caused a total loss of 500000 yuan to the museum, which makes curator Gao feel very complicated. In particular, curator Gao looks even more gloomy. If he can't recover the loss from Zhao Yiping this time, he will resign.
Moreover, even if he recovers his losses, he will be punished. The key is that he will retire in a few years. Does this not mean that he will be in danger? This is the most difficult point for him to accept.
Thinking of this, curator Gao felt dizzy and staggered. If it wasn't for Chu Chen's quick eyes and quick hands, curator Gao might have been on the ground.
"Curator Gao, are you ok?" Chu Chen asked with concern.
Curator Gao settled down, waved his hand and said, "I'm ok. I have high blood pressure. Take some medicine and have a rest. I'll be OK."
"Curator, are you really OK?" Professor Qin asked with a worried face.
Curator Gao shook his head and said, "it's really OK. I'll go back to take some medicine and have a rest. Take Mr. Chu and them to dinner. Mr. Chu, I'm so sorry for the delay! "
Chu Chen said: "it's OK, curator Gao, you'd better go and have a rest."
"Excuse me..."
Looking at curator Gao's back, we all felt a sigh.
However, although curator Gao looks pitiful, none of these counterfeits, except the plain tricolor bowl, is due to management negligence. Therefore, the current situation is also caused by his poor management. He can only blame himself.
Before the meal, Professor Qin secretly gave Chu Chen a red envelope, saying that it was the museum's hard work. Chu Chen didn't want to accept it, but he could only reluctantly accept it.
After dinner and a short rest, we took the train at two o'clock in the afternoon to Qinzhou, the site of the ancient tomb.
Since ancient times, Qinzhou is the second most important strategic city in Longxi.
In addition, Qinzhou is also an important birthplace of Chinese civilization and the Chinese nation, a national historical and cultural city, enjoying the honor of Xi Huang's hometown, WA Huang's hometown and Xuanyuan's hometown. Xi Huang created eight trigrams, which is known as "the capital of Yi learning".
there are many cultural relics in Qinzhou, including the only Fuxi temple in Tianshui with a statue of Fuxi in China, Maijishan grottoes, one of China's four major grottoes and known as "Oriental Sculpture Museum", and six large and small grottoes, which are worthy of the name of the art capital of grottoes.
Jincheng to Qinzhou, take the train, it will take more than five hours to arrive when it is already dark.However, we didn't stay in Qinzhou for a long time. The next morning, under the leadership of relevant personnel in Qinzhou, we went to Shangying, the final destination of this trip.
In the Xia and Shang Dynasties, Qinzhou belonged to Yongzhou. In the 12th year of King Xiao of Zhou (9th century BC), yingfeizi raised horses for the royal family in Qinchi (the Shangying area where chuchen now went), and was granted the title of yingfeizi. Qin, the pavilion of later generations, is the earliest place name found in historical records in Qinzhou.
Therefore, Shangying in Qinzhou is the birthplace of the Qin Dynasty, where there are many legends about the pre Qin period, attracting countless people to visit.
Among these people, in addition to the scholars searching for cultural relics, there are also a large number of tomb robbers. Needless to say, these people must be attracted by the hidden treasures.
We went directly to the location of the ancient tomb by car. When we got there, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.
There are caves all over the mountains. No place on the cliff or on the ground is intact. These caves, needless to say, are all stolen. Until now, Chu Chen did not understand what Professor Qin had said before. How could you find the real location of that ancient tomb after so many cave robbers?
After a long time, Chu Chen regained his consciousness and asked in shock: "Professor Qin, how can this be like this? Is there no one in the area to manage it? "
Professor Qin said with a wry smile: "how can we manage this? We have no intention and we can't afford it. As you know, it takes money to excavate and protect ancient tombs. We are also clever women. We can't make bricks without rice!"
Chu Chen also knows what Professor Qin said. Generally speaking, the stability of unearthed cultural relics will be broken due to sudden environmental changes. If they are not protected at this time, the cultural relics will be irreversibly damaged.
In addition, if cultural relics are burned, demolished or improperly maintained, they will lose their original appearance, copper and iron wares, calligraphy and paintings, bamboo and wood lacquerware, ceramics, etc. will be damaged due to improper protection and handling, as well as the damage caused by natural factors. In order to restore the original appearance of these cultural relics, it is necessary to carry out the necessary restoration work.
And whether it's protection or restoration, it costs a lot of money. Taking a large cultural relic Province in China as an example, it is estimated that at least 50000 or 60000 cultural relics with severe corrosion are in urgent need of rescue protection. According to the average cost of repairing a cultural relic of about 3000 yuan, the cost of rescue protection is at least 150 million yuan.
This is also the cost of emergency protection, and other daily protection costs. It can be said that the annual cost is astronomical. Besides, money alone is not enough. If it's repaired, you have to have relevant staff, right?
There are only about ten full-time cultural relic restoration personnel in a province, which is still more, and even less in some places. This is also a factor restricting the work of cultural relic protection.
Although the protection of cultural relics seems to be a lot of difficulties, in Chu Chen's opinion, in fact, it is due to the fact that the state pays too little attention to the protection of cultural relics.
Let's say that some people eat, drink and use less. The money saved each year is more than enough for the protection of cultural relics. As long as the State supports the relevant personnel, it will soon be solved.
Of course, for some people, such a proposal will not be adopted. But now everything is centered on economic construction. As for the protection of cultural relics, please stand aside.
Next, under the leadership of the staff, Chu Chen went into the cave to have a look. There were holes in the cave. It was estimated that the space inside could hide all the people in the whole village. What's more distressing to Chu Chen is that the ground is full of broken pottery pots. Just looking at them, he feels distressed.
This situation this scene, Li Beibei also saw is dumbfounded, said: "this is too rampant?"
Chu Chen asked: "Professor Qin, tomb robbers should not be so rampant?"
Professor Qin said with a bitter smile: "do you think there are such bold grave robbers?"
Think about it. If the grave robbers can be so bold, it's really rare.
So Chu Chen frowned and asked an accompanying employee, "shouldn't you take care of this situation?"
The employee said with a wry smile, "we can't help it. The people here are too poor and have no culture. We often publicize it, but they just don't listen. Moreover, our cultural relics department is Qingshui Yamen. It has neither money nor power. No one takes us seriously. We can't manage it if we want to! "
Chu Chen shook his head when he heard the speech. What the staff said was also true. If it wasn't for poverty, the excavation of Qin Gong's tomb, which shocked the whole country, would not have happened in the west of Qinzhou.
