Chapter 548 Museum

"It's like this. They also heard the news that the country has newly published the "Qianlong Edition Tripitaka", so they want to request the country to make a copy of the original Dragon Tibetan Sutra Brocade Box and a new set of "Qianlong Edition"

Tripitaka" and put it back in the Tripitaka Pavilion to restore it to its original appearance."

"You old Gu!" Master Danzeng is actually older than Gu Zhenduo, but because he looks young and strong, and can still play basketball after all, he seems to be a whole round younger. The two of them are joking like this, which makes him look younger.

Master Tenzin does not respect teachers and emphasize teaching.

But when he turned to look at Zhou Zhi, he became cautious: "Then our school will accept this illustrated book?"

"If Master is worried, can we hold another donation ceremony?" Zhou Zhi also wanted to tease Mengzi.

"Don't make trouble, you elbow!" Godmother quickly stopped her: "Aren't you worried that it will be your turn, Master?!"

"It would be good to have a donation ceremony." Director Jiang said, "This way everyone can explain clearly in the future."

"That's right, that makes sense." Master Tenzin nodded: "Then get one quickly!"

"Is it so casual?" Zhou Zhi was dumbfounded: "Now?"

"Director Jiang is the director of our Provincial Calligraphy Association. He came to give you some certificates, but you will make money." Gu Zhenduo said this as if Zhou Zhi had taken advantage, making Zhou Zhi complain that it was the butt that determined the head.

The godmother said to her son: "Qiao Mu, I remember there is a camera in the car, let's take a picture."

Zhou Zhi now feels that his godmother’s butt is crooked, and he has made it clear that he is on the side of his alma mater and wants to help seal this “deal”.

They were all elders, so Zhou Zhi could only obey obediently, went through the process, and accepted the "Donation Certificate and Letter of Thank You" with his outstanding calligraphy and literary talent. Surrounded by his godmother, Director Jiang, Master, and Master Danzin, he

Holding the certificates behind the cultural relics, we took a group photo together as a souvenir.

After everything was done, Director Yuan said: "It's better to transport the batch of "Longzang Sutra" from Jiachuan as soon as possible. After all, it's hundreds of years old, so it's better to keep it in the institute."

"Okay, I'll call home right now." Godmother smiled.

"I wonder if you like museums?" Director Jiang accepted Zhou Zhi's kindness today. After all, the two important cultural relics must be stored in the museum, and the museum is naturally under the management of the Department of History.

I couldn't come up with anything good to entertain, but seeing that Zhou Zhi seemed to be quite interested in cultural relics, I had no choice but to invite Zhou Zhi to visit the museum.

"Or you can go to the restoration center to have a look." Director Yuan joked with a smile: "After all, I have made an appointment with Jiuzi, and I will do an internship there in the future, right?"

"Let's go to the museum." Although Jiang Shuyi followed Zhou Zhi obediently and didn't say much, Zhou Zhi thought that she would not be interested in a room full of worn-out old papers, so it would be better to go to the museum to see the curiosities.

Every museum has its treasures, which are usually not open to the public for free viewing. Director Jiang was very generous today and allowed guests to view them as they please.

"In the 20th year of the Republic of China, the Shudu University Museum was established. At that time, we had more than 6,000 specimens, all of which are stored and displayed in the Hepei Academy of West China Union University."

"By the 25th year of the Republic of China, the museum had more than 15,000 cultural relics in its collection. These mainly include cultural relics of ethnic minorities, old and new stone tools from the Minjiang Cultural Belt in Sichuan and Kangxi Province. In addition, there are more than 700 pieces of clothing and embroidery from the Qing Dynasty, and four snuff bottles.

One hundred pieces, about a thousand pieces of porcelain, bronzes, jades, ancient springs, pearls and ornaments from the Qing Dynasty, Han figurines, relics from Guanghan, etc."

"After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the museum's collection continued to expand. By the end of May 1st, for the first time, the collection had reached more than 35,000 items."

"Now it has been greatly expanded, with a total of more than 40,000 sets and more than 60,000 pieces, including stone carvings, calligraphy and painting, ceramics, bronzes, ancient coins, ancient seals, embroidery, lacquerware, rubbings and other dozens of categories, especially calligraphy and painting.

, ceramics, art sculptures, ethnic cultural relics, folk cultural relics, etc. are the most distinctive collections.”

It is said to be a museum, but in fact it is not open to the public. When Director Jiang turned on the lights, what greeted him was a nearly three-meter-tall dinosaur fossil.

"Eh? There's this one too?" Zhou Zhi was surprised.

"It belongs to another department, but there is no place to store it, so it is temporarily placed here with us, as are many minerals, animal and plant specimens."

Zhou Zhi is naturally most interested in porcelain, calligraphy and painting. His porcelain appraisal level can only be said to be specialized in Song porcelain and blue and white. For other official or quasi-official kiln porcelain, those from the Qing Dynasty and the Three Dynasties basically cannot fool him, while the Tang and Five Dynasties,

After the three dynasties of Yuan, Ming, Qing, and the Republic of China, some of them are hard to see, but about 80% of them can be identified.

The Shu University Museum has porcelain from the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, so today is a perfect opportunity to make up for the lesson.

For example, a large number of Tang Dynasty tricolor porcelain and white glazed porcelain came from Huangye kiln, Lushan kiln in the north, and Shifang kiln in Qionglai, central Sichuan.

A layman can watch the fun, an expert can watch the door, especially all the porcelain. Director Jiang allowed Zhou Zhi to touch it and take a closer look. This is really a big deal.

Zhou Zhi held a cup in his hand, turning it gently to look at it. He couldn't put it down, for fear of missing every detail.

"The Tang Dynasty had frequent exchanges with ethnic groups in the Western Regions, and as the era advocated novelty, images of Hu people became very common in various artworks."

"The name of this cultural relic is called 'Tang Huangye Kiln Hu Holding Horn Cup'. It is shaped like a Hu man with a high nose, deep eyes, and curly beard sitting on the ground, holding a horn that is about the same size as his body with both hands.

Cup image.”

"This cup is a wine vessel, about 17 centimeters high. The wine poured into the corner cup can flow into the hollow Hu man's body, subtly increasing the capacity of the cup."

"Is this really used for drinking? Or is it the shape of an open vessel?" Zhou Zhi felt a little curious and felt that drinking from such a cup was always a bit weird.

"Of course it is a clear vessel." Director Jiang said with a smile: "Actually, this is also a characteristic of our country's funeral system. All objects shaped into human figures are generally not daily necessities, but are mainly clear vessels for burials."

"You're pretty good at elbows. You can figure out the right ideas just by asking."
