Chapter 749 New archaeological find

Mitsui Taka and the two brothers looked at the two warrior figurines and stopped talking. On the one hand, they were hit by such a sudden ecstasy, and they really didn’t know what to say.

On the other hand, it also laments the wisdom of the ancient Chinese.

You must know that when these two figurines were fired, it should have been more than 2,000 years ago. At that time, Chinese people could already make such figurines.

And what about the Japanese at that time? It seems that there is really no record of Japanese history at that time. At that time, our ancestors seemed to have just lied down from the tree and walked with their feet upright not long ago.

Of course, this is only the estimation of the two of them, but they dare not say this to outsiders at all.

Noda Yoshihiko was much more professional than his two employers at this time. He squatted on the ground, took a flashlight and started to show the two figurines, looking at the facial expressions of the two figurines, as well as the sculptures on the faces. .

The two pottery figurines have round eyes, with the spirit of a fierce warrior, and they both have beards and beards that have been carefully groomed. It can be seen that the craftsmen who made these two pottery figurines should have Great attention was paid to these details.

Moreover, the buns of the two pottery figurines also have the characteristics of the Han Dynasty. If it wasn’t for him knowing which mysterious Mr. Jim these two pottery figurines were, and the fake ones, I’m afraid he would have been caught at this time. Now, take these two fakes as genuine.

Because these two pottery figurines, in terms of appearance, no matter how you look at them, they are no different from the real ones.

After reading the two pottery figurines, he didn’t say much, but came to the front of another box with the same height as this one, pried open the box, and then took out seven or eight pottery figurines from the box. .

The pottery figurines taken out from this box this time are not as tall as the two samurai servants before, and most of them are ordinary pottery figurines.

Some are women sitting on their knees, some are dressed as servants, and there are pottery figurines of boys. There are a total of more than a dozen in total, although they are also very finely made, but in terms of spirit, these pottery figurines. But there is no spirit of the two samurai servants in front.

Noda Yoshihiko seemed to be very unwilling. He pried open a box next to the box, and this time the things he took out from the box finally satisfied him.

It turned out that this time, it was actually two samurai servants on horseback. Because of the horses below, the two samurai servants are much taller than the previous two and a half-person samurai servants.

If you measure it, it is even as high as 1.7 meters, reaching the height of an ordinary adult.

Moreover, the facial statues, like the statues of the two horses, are exactly the same as those of the two samurai servants in front. They are all finely crafted, and even the hair of the characters and horses are made lifelike. It can be seen that the two samurai were fired back then. The craftsmen of the horse figurines are also very attentive.

After reading these two horse-riding samurai servants. This Noda Yoshihiko really stood up and stretched his waist, but just when he stretched, he realized that the two Noda Yoshihiko brothers were looking at him eagerly at this time.

He smiled slightly in his heart, then turned around, came to the front of the two brothers, was about to open his mouth, but closed his mouth again, then raised his head and glanced at Watanabe who was standing not far away.

The two Mitsui brothers followed his gaze and looked at Junichi Watanabe. I saw that guy, who was still struggling with the stack of checkbooks at this time, and didn’t notice the movement on their side.

At this time, Yoshihiko Noda seemed to be relieved. Pulling the two Mitsui brothers, he said, “Gentlemen, we had a big luck this time. The things here are definitely national treasures of China. They must have been unearthed in the tombs of the Han Dynasty more than two thousand years ago. The key is the status of the owner of the tomb. It must be quite remarkable, otherwise there will be no such things in his tomb. ”

Noda Yoshihiko’s words made the eyebrows of Mitsui Takawa who was standing on the side twitch. This old guy had been pretending to be calm before, although he also felt that these things in front of him should be antiques from the Han Dynasty that had disappeared, but there was no Noda. Jia Yan, an expert, gave him affirmation, and he had always been unsure in his heart.

At this time, Mitsui Guangliang’s expression was a little dignified. Mitsui Takawa took a look and quickly asked him, “Guangliang, what’s wrong? Is there something wrong?”

“Well, I can’t tell. I just think these pottery figurines are a little weird, but I can’t tell exactly what is weird.”

Although Mitsui Mitsui’s qualifications in antique appraisal are mediocre, after all, he is also a person who has been in the antique circle for decades, not to mention the Tokyo National Museum where he usually lives, and the treasures in it are all precious treasures.

Although he saw these fakes now, Jin Muchen asked Sister Tao to find her friends who were masters of counterfeiting, and made them specially.

But in the eyes of Mitsui Mitsui, it is still a little unnatural, but if you ask him to tell you what is wrong, what is unnatural, he can’t tell.

And at this time, Yoshihiko Noda, of course, can’t let Mitsui Mitsui’s straw bag ruin his good deeds.

Of course, considering the employment relationship between him and the two Mitsui brothers, at this time he didn’t want to say too direct and blunt words, and denied Mitsui Guangliang, so he asked Mitsui Guangliang in circles.

“Guangliang, what do you think is wrong with this pottery figurine?”

“Well… how do you say it? I can’t tell, but I’ve never heard of it before. The princes of the Han Dynasty also liked to use pottery figurines in their tombs, and they were painted pottery. Two years ago, we The museum also specially organized an exchange with Chinese museums. At that time, I also went to China and saw a lot of collections in many Chinese museums, including these pottery figurines, and those pottery figurines, especially painted pottery appeared. The earliest age of the dynasties seems to be in the Northern Wei Dynasty.”

Mitsui Mitsui finally spoke out the question that he had been wondering for a long time in his heart, but because he is usually too sloppy in antique appraisal, he did not dare to say it with too much certainty.

After all, in front of Noda Yoshihiko, he dared not pretend to be an expert.

And Yoshihiko Noda was happy after listening to his words, not only smiling on his face, but also happy in his heart.

This Mitsui Mitsui, as expected, is still the same as before. It’s just a piece of shit. No matter what he does, he has no confidence. If something like this is judged by oneself, it can be concluded that it is a fake.

But at this time, he can’t say this to the Mitsui brothers, but he has to fool the two brothers, this is the real thing!

“Guangliang, you haven’t seen it before, it doesn’t mean that there were no colorful pottery figurines like this in the Han Dynasty! Um…hey! Then I’ll tell you a little bit about it. In fact, in ancient China, the Shang and Zhou dynasties, that At that time, if the royal family and nobles died, they were buried with living people. This custom continued until the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The earliest and largest living tomb group discovered in China is the tomb group of the monarchs of the Song Dynasty during the Spring and Autumn Period. , he let his twelve beloved concubines go to **** with him in total. Because this method was too inhumane, it was gradually abolished in the late Warring States period. Of course, it was not all abolished, but some emperors were abolished. This is no longer used by relatives and nobles. For example, the famous Qin Shihuang specially used warrior pottery figurines as his burial objects. That is to say, since then, Chinese people have begun to use pottery figurines to be buried with him. already.”

Although Noda Yoshihiko said these are well-known historical bridges, the Mitsui brothers still listened with relish. After all, this Noda Yoshihiko, the name of the treasure appraiser genius, did not come for nothing.

Especially when it comes to Chinese antiques, he is Japan’s leading expert, so he doesn’t care what kind of person he is, but he still has quite strong credibility and persuasiveness in the appraisal of antiques.

“After the Han Dynasty, the first emperors of the Han Dynasty were very sympathetic to the people. In order not to waste the people and waste money like Qin Shi Huang did~www.readmtl.com~ So on the burial pottery figurines, they will no longer spend the Qin Shi Huang time. Energy. Even if some pottery figurines are fired for burials, they should be fired as small as possible. Therefore, the pottery figurines of the Northern Wei Dynasty that we discovered later were basically small in size, and they were also inherited from the Han Dynasty. But the best way to distinguish Han Dynasty pottery figurines and Northern Wei pottery figurines is to look at the hair ornaments of these pottery figurines. The Han Dynasty pottery figurines and the Northern Wei period pottery figurines have obvious differences in hair accessories, and the Han Dynasty royal family is generally They all like to choose warrior figurines to be buried with them. First, the entire Han Dynasty was a military dynasty, and they also hoped that these warrior figurines could be underground to protect their tombs from being disturbed by those ghosts, and they also hoped that These warrior figurines can deter the tomb robbers who come to rob their tombs. And the pottery figurines of the Northern Wei Dynasty, because the Northern Wei Dynasty was already the leading power in the north at that time, there was no concept of danger, so the dignitaries at that time preferred ladies pottery figurines, or servant pottery figurines to bury them, can ensure that they also live a good life underground with wives and concubines and servants in groups. In addition, you said that the earliest painted pottery figurines you have seen are from the Northern Wei Dynasty, but you Don’t forget that the Northern Wei Dynasty was not far from the Han Dynasty. Many of the techniques and skills of the pottery craftsmen at that time were actually inherited from the craftsmen of the Han Dynasty. Besides, you have not seen the Han Dynasty. The painted pottery figurines are actually a good thing. Don’t you think this is a new archaeological discovery of the colored pottery figurines of the Han Dynasty in front of you? Can they advance the age of the painted pottery figurines by more than 100 years? …” (To be continued.) Mobile users, please visit //m.ia
