A storm is slowly taking shape
……
Chapter 30 Jiangning Museum
With a population of 600 million every day, the earth is surrounded by all kinds of storms. For people, only personal storms can bring real shock.
Just like now, although the Vatican gentlemen are busy and exhausted, two German professors make up the number, but Chen Yi is sitting in the living room of the museum drinking tea.
Professor Lang sat beside him as an interpreter while drinking Biluochun English delivered by the museum. He praised, "It is unfair that Dr. China can drink tea while a German doctor can drink good tea."
After that, he winked at the two German humanists, "I wouldn’t drink such good tea without you."
Chen Yi laughed when he heard this. Professor Lang’s chubby hands were holding two or two small teacups, which was really joyful, not to mention his humorous personality. The whole person was full of exciting elements.
Carl English replied, "If we stay in Jiangning for a month, I’m afraid there won’t be such good tea."
He knows that Chen Yi can understand simple English.
"Guests are always treated best," Professor Lang said, and after drinking a cup of tea in one breath, he changed hands and reversed the waterway. "Jiangning Museum is the most famous except dinosaur fossils."
Everyone laughed.
Wait until the whole pot of tea is finished before Professor Lang pats his belly straight and laughs. "It’s time to go, Liu Yuan, even if he has been anxious for a long time to identify the art, he should find an appraiser and find an appraiser who is not at ease. This means that the officials are tired."
"Be careful, especially what happened the day before yesterday," Andre said in sympathetic English. "It’s sad that everyone dares not accept the gifts given by the Vatican."
"It’s really sad," Professor Lang laughed. They are going to identify some art donated by the Vatican to the China government. Although it is not for money, it means that it is more than a shame for the museum to sign it.
Therefore, I heard that the famous Satsuma cylinders were all suspected of counterfeiting thousands of years ago. Lu Yuan, the curator of the original Xinxin Museum, couldn’t sit still and said that it was also a good idea to ask Professor Tuolang to help me identify him. There are not many experts and scholars who can speak in this field. Professor Lang is considered to be the most promising one. He said that it is the real thing, so the idle bricks dare not challenge casually.
Yu Chen Yi was pulled by Professor Lang as a high-level coolie, and the low-level coolie was different. He was qualified for three professors to have tea and chat together. Although he could not insert a few words in English, he was much more comfortable than Lu Fan and other handyman graduate students.
Curator Lu Yuan was really worried, waiting for the small hall outside, ignoring the image, circling in front of a group of graduate students like a dog who hadn’t gone out for two days.
Professor Lang said hello to him by seniority. Lu Yuan wanted something from others. He walked over and pulled up the sofa behind him. "Several professors, this is Mr. Duan Rongduan, our first-class appraiser in Jiangning, and this is Cui Ju, our researcher in Jiangning Museum."
Chen Yi hid behind three heavyweight professors, and Ji was one of the "several professors". Looking at the humble appearance of others, there was an illusory feeling-when did he qualify as a world-renowned professor to identify historical relics and art together, not to mention the disparity? Even the age is far from the knowledge level.
But this feeling is very good.
Cui Ju and Duan Rong are modest and restrained because they are different from the low-profile fathers and gentlemen because of their knowledge level and academic status of Professor Lang and others.
Chen Yi followed the three men to the museum.
Behind the heavy steel door, you can see that there are many cultural relics arranged neatly. The total number of sculptures and inscriptions is about 5 or so. Just talking about dozens of paintings. It is said that the total number of cultural relics donated by the Vatican has been given abroad more than once over the years, but in terms of total value, it is not very high, about 10 million dollars.
Curator Lu wrinkled his face and said, "I’m going to trouble a few people these two days."
Others have long known that Professor Lang turned to Chen Yidao. "It seems that you are about to take the college entrance examination. You can see and do whatever you want these two days. It’s also called being free."
Chen Yi smiled and nodded, "Nothing, this is also a rare opportunity."
His eyes didn’t look at the Vatican cultural relics, but looked far ahead at the warehouse, which was full of prehistoric fossils, big or small. Jiangning Museum is famous for its number of exhibitions every year, and it is called the country’s first collection vault.
From other directions, in addition to dinosaur skeletons, there are whole fish, bird and plant fossils, and some special prehistoric creatures such as trilobites and other "famous stones" are put in mosaic boxes and put in stainless steel frames. If necessary, they can replace their own fossils by mechanical devices. The same technology should also be expensive in museums such as Smithsonian in the United States
Larger collections, or collections with less exhibition value, are generally stacked in different categories. Except for a few lucky people, they have never seen the sun since the day of excavation.
Others have been busy for a long time. Chen Yi looked at the cool and comfortable warehouse with thousands of meters in length and width, and couldn’t help but ask, "Do you have any fossils of ancestor birds?"
"ancestor bird?" Cui Ju, a researcher, almost laughed. Although he mainly studied Renaissance art, Jiangning Museum knows a lot about fossils. Chen Yi is still young. He kindly explained that "a total of one ancestor bird fossil was found, most of which are German national treasures, and it is difficult for us to see it."
He said to the two foreigners, "They have an archaeological shrine. Professor Soren Hofenlang should have been there several times, and the ancestral bird base was unearthed there."
"The two of them really went there to know each other before," Professor Lang smiled and nodded in a leisurely tone. "You have less contact with archaeology, so Sorenhoven in Germany has unique geographical conditions. The mud at the bottom of the lake is a natural preservation of fossils. It is quite remarkable that animal carcasses can be preserved soon when they enter the mud."
After what he said, Chen Yi finally understood the Mid-Autumn Festival smile and couldn’t help saying, "Is there a similar fossil? Contemporary or of the same type "
"If Mr. Chen is interested in fossils, I can give you one after the end," said curator Lu, who was worried that the professors were racing against time.
Chen Yi is not at all polite. "Thank you for that."
Liu yuan one leng also laughed.
