Live Challenge: Did you really abduct Liu Feifei?

"This is... Zeng Hou Yizun Pan?!" Su Ye's voice was filled with surprise.

This thing is truly a priceless treasure!
"Yes, it's Zeng Hou Yizun Pan! Xiao Su, can you take a look and see if it's true or false?"

"Xiao Su, look carefully!"

"..."

A group of big guys were looking forward to it, waiting for Su Ye to speak.

After Su Ye looked at it carefully, he said slowly,
"Zun Yizun, the Marquis of Zeng, is 33.1 centimeters tall, has a diameter of 25 centimeters, and weighs about 9 kilograms. The Yi plate of Marquis Zeng is 24 centimeters tall, has a diameter of 57.6 centimeters, and weighs about 19.2 kilograms.

The complete set of utensils is 42 centimeters in height, 58 centimeters in diameter, and weighs about 30 kilograms.

The decoration of Zun Hou Yi's plate is complicated. The bronze statue is made of 34 parts, which are connected by 56 castings and weldings. The body of the statue is decorated with 28 dragons and 32 dragons. The neck is engraved with the words "Zeng Hou Yi". A 7-character inscription that will last forever.A total of 56 dragons and 48 dragons are decorated on the copper plate. "

After a slight pause, Su Ye's voice continued,
"The whole body of the statue is made of pottery, and the feet and other accessories are cast separately, and then welded with the body of the statue using lead-tin alloy. The neck accessories are composed of complex and orderly hollow patterns, which are investment molds casting.

The statue is open and trumpet-shaped, and the thick outer edge is folded and drooping. It is decorated with exquisite and transparent patterns of coiled beetles, which look like clouds stacked on top of each other.

The neck of the statue is decorated with banana-leaf-shaped coiled-bottle patterns, and the banana leaves stretch upwards, matching with the slightly flared arc of the top of the neck, harmonious and unified.

Between the neck and belly of the statue are four round-carved leopard-shaped crouching beasts. The body is composed of openworked dragon patterns. The beast climbs up along the neck of the statue, looking back and sticking out its tongue, which hangs like a hook.

Both the belly and the tall feet are decorated with fine and detailed coiled dragon patterns, and four high-relief horned dragons are decorated on it, with rich layers and clear primary and secondary.

The plate has straight walls and a flat bottom, with four dragon-shaped hooves and four square ears attached to the rim, all decorated with coiled-bottle patterns, the same style as the Zunkou.There are two flat hollow dragons under each of the four ears, with their heads drooping.

Each of the four dragons has a round-carved dragon, with its head resting on the edge of the mouth, which echoes the pan-bellied dragon pattern, thus breaking through the stagnation and stiffness often seen in the full-decorated pan-chi pattern.

This is definitely the most complex and exquisite bronze device in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. "

Seeing Su Ye stop,
The knowledgeable boss present couldn't help but said, "The production is indeed exquisite and complicated. The circle is divided into upper and lower layers. The lower layer is the facade with a chivalry pattern cast on it. The upper layer is a bevel with hollows on it." Ornamentation.

Its specific casting techniques are all common techniques in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods. For example, the Panchi pattern on the facade adopts the unit pattern and fan pindu technology, while the hollow pattern on the inclined surface,

The production process is similar to that of the hollowed-out copper fumigation of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, in which a unit pattern is made on a flat fan-shaped decorative mold, and the cavity on the surface of the pattern is the hollow pattern. "

Before this person could finish speaking, another person jumped in and said,

"Its abdomen is relatively simple, with only a band of ornamental patterns covering a week. The upper opening of the neck is large, the lower opening is small, and the bottom is shorter. It is a band of patterns. The upper part is very long, and is covered with 4 banana strips covered with patterns. Leaf shape, with a plain surface in between.

The casting process of the abdomen and neck also adopts the fan pindui technique that was popular in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods.

The ornamentation circle on the mouth edge is composed of many individual small ornamentations.There should be several shapes of these small decorations.

Specifically, 16 small decorative units are first formed into a small group of decorative units, and every 4 of the same small group of decorative units form a large group of decorative units, and then these 4 large groups of decorative units are surrounded to form the entire mouth edge decoration. lock up. "

"Okay, I'll say a few words, and I'll let you show off in a while. Why should I show off!"

"This...most of the individual small decorations are supported by copper stems underneath, and the small decorations and the copper stems are welded.

The single small decorations that make up the several shapes of the mouth decoration ring are all cast from single-hexed models.

The so-called single combined fan is actually a fan bag composed of two pieces of fan.Among them, the cavity of one model has the same geometric shape as the whole utensil, while the other model matched with it has a flat plate shape without a cavity.

The small decorations on the Zun plate are cast in batches by the single-combined fan process with one fan and multiple cavities.

Single combined fan with small decorations cast in batches, one side is a flat fan, that is, there is no shape on the surface.It is not difficult to understand,
After the combination of the flat plate fan and the cavity fan, the small ornamentation cast, one end of the string surface can be lifted,
But the bottom surface must be flat.For the small decorations on the Zun plate, after the blank with a flat bottom surface and a tilted chord surface was cast by Danhe Fan, the bottom plane of the tilted part was also ground. "At this time,

Su Ye couldn't help but look at her father-in-law and said, "Dad, aren't you going to say a few words?"

Father-in-law Su Ye coughed twice and said slowly, "The zun is an ancient wine vessel, and the dish is a water vessel. Zeng Hou Yizun's dish is integrated into one.

The astonishing thing about this dish is its uncanny decoration.The decorative surfaces are independent of each other and not connected to each other. They are supported by the inner copper stems, which are connected in layers. They are staggered and exquisite, making the viewer breathless and amazed.

The exquisite and delicate perforated decorations on the statue and plate are exquisite, translucent, exquisite and gorgeous.

The high degree of craftsmanship in its casting is miraculous.

If this statue is authentic, it proves that in the early Warring States Period 400 years ago, China's lost-wax casting technology had reached an extremely high level.

So, is this statue real? ! "

words fell,

The big boss's eyes were all focused on Su Ye for a moment, right!

After saying so much, there is no conclusion yet on whether this statue is real or not.

Now they were looking at Su Ye with anticipation in their eyes, and they naturally hoped that this statue was real.

Su Ye didn't show off, and nodded slightly, "It's true!"

In a flash,

Everyone present felt short of breath, but it was really true!

It must be bought and handed over to the state, which can be regarded as leaving a valuable asset to the people.

At their current level, money is just a cold number. As long as they don't work hard, don't go against the interests of the nation, and don't betray the country, they will never be able to fail in their lifetime. What's the use of keeping the money? It's better to do something meaningful.

With Su Ye's affirmation, everyone was convinced. They actually understood it, and it looked real, but this was no small matter. The more real things looked like antiques, the more they felt a little imaginary. , the more uncertain they become.

Several of them bought this thing together and, as they said, handed it over to the state.

at night,

Su Ye had a simple meal with his father-in-law and these big guys.
During this period, Su Ye could chat for a while no matter what the topic was, and his words were perfectly measured.

These guys of Su Ye's father-in-law are really envious of his father-in-law.

If they had such a son-in-law, they would wake up laughing in their dreams!

This old guy is so lucky.

The wine party is over,

Su Ye's father-in-law drank a lot. If he didn't go home, he would take Su Ye for a massage.

What else is said, the man is the master of the house, and the wife only needs to be obedient.

I don't know why, maybe because I read a lot of novels and TV series. When the father-in-law said this, Su Ye felt a cold shudder on his back, as if the mother-in-law was already standing behind them. (End of chapter)
