Chapter 318 The curator helps!Enter as an archaeological team!

According to historical records, after King Wu of Zhou destroyed the Shang Dynasty, he granted Yan Zhao Gong Ji Shuang the title of Concubine Shuang and established his capital in Ji.

This is the current capital city. In order to distinguish it from the Yan State of the younger generation at that time, it was called Beiyan.

During the period of King Zhou Cheng, Ji Shuang, Duke Zhao of Yan, became a Taibao and assisted King Zhou Cheng together with Zhou Gongdan. She also supported Zhou Gongdan in his political involvement and helped him put down the rebellion.

Ji Shuang was good at internal affairs, and he managed the areas under his jurisdiction the best among the countries of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Common people and nobles each had their own place, so he was deeply loved.

Of course Tang Lanxuan knew Ji Shuang's name, but he was also very shocked and asked hurriedly: "Lin Ran, how did you learn about it?"

"Actually, I'm just guessing." Lin Ran said, "The bronze bell at the entrance to the Xicun Tomb is a specialty of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. By the Qin Dynasty, iron smelting technology had improved, so it could only be from the dynasty before the Qin Dynasty."

"Before the Qin Dynasty, the capital city was the territory of Beiyan. However, no large tombs of Beiyan nobles have been unearthed, and the tomb of Duke Zhao of Yan has also been unknown."

"The Xicun Tomb is huge, probably the largest in the capital. So I speculate that it is the tomb of Yan Zhaogong Ji Shuang."

Lin Ran described his reasoning to Tang Lanxuan.

Tang Lanxuan was extremely shocked and paced in the office.

As a close disciple of Tang Lanxuan, Lin Ran certainly knew that the teacher was very happy.

As a modern capital, Beijing has only been the capital of the Liao, Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, and the excavated tombs are also lacking.

If the tombs of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty can be discovered, it can fill the gaps in the capital before the Five Dynasties.

He thought for a while and asked Lin Ran: "Excuse me, what is your purpose in telling me this matter?"

"I hope you can do me a favor." Lin Ran looked serious, "The West Village Tomb has been targeted by outsiders. If the cultural relics are stolen by them, it will bring huge losses to the country."

Tang Lanxuan's face was solemn: "Lin Ran, how did you discover all this? I hope you can tell me everything."

Looking at his serious look, he couldn't help but overlap with his teacher in his previous life.

Although they had just met in this life, Lin Ran had been with Tang Lanxuan for 20 years and was very familiar with the teacher's temper.

Tang Lanxuan also felt that the boy in front of him had a unique sense of familiarity, not just because he was good at identifying cultural relics, but because many of his ideas coincided with his own.

If you have such a close friend in life, what more can you ask for?

After telling Tang Lanxuan the whole story, Tang Lanxuan stood up with a frown and looked out the window.

"They haven't started robbing graves yet, and we really can't bring them to justice."

Lin Ran nodded, this result made Tang Lanxuan embarrassed.

He also paid attention to the Nishimura Tomb, and of course he knew about Wanner.

However, since he only thought that Huanaer wanted to come to China to preach, but did not want to deceive the villagers' trust, he was doing this kind of thing secretly.

When it comes to international relations, before there is complete evidence, we must follow Lin Ran's words and not alert the enemy.

"What do you need me to do?" Tang Lanxuan found the boy in front of him very interesting, as if he had a pair of clear eyes.

"Director, you should be the honorary president of the National Archaeological Association." Lin Ran asked.

"How do you know?" Tang Lanxuan was a little surprised. Why did Lin Ran feel like he knew everything?

Is it because of his special status that he came to me today?

Not even the deputy director knew about this.

Lin Ran couldn't explain clearly at the moment, so he went over casually: "Director, I need you to arrange a team to conduct routine inspections of the Xicun Tomb."

Although the excavation of the mausoleum has not officially started, it has been listed as a protection project by the state. It is also their job to regularly check whether the tomb has been damaged.

"If you want to send a team, you need to apply for funding from the state. I'm afraid it won't be possible for less than ten days and a half." Tang Lanxuan said with regret.

"I have already found the team." Lin Ran said firmly, "They are very reliable. They just need your help to sort out the relationship."

Now, the most dangerous thing Lin Ran's team faces is the village's complex interpersonal network.

It took several years of operation for Warner to gain the trust of the villagers.

If they appear rashly, the news will inevitably reach the ears of Huaner and Qugui, and they will naturally become suspicious of themselves.

I have warned myself, so revenge is inevitable.

Lin Ran was not afraid of being threatened, but the other party knew his home address, and his parents could not withstand such a blow.

Therefore, he must think of a way to get the best of both worlds, which can protect the country's property and protect the safety of his parents.

I told him all my thoughts and concerns, hoping to gain trust.

Tang Lanxuan remained silent, but his heart was already filled with ups and downs.

He looked at the boy in front of him with some admiration. He was thoughtful, well-planned, and had already arranged the manpower.

What is even more valuable is that he has feelings for his family and country.

The era of dedication has long passed. Nowadays, people no longer have the spirit of sacrifice in order to protect themselves.

Knowing that it was a very dangerous thing, he chose to come forward. This kind of friendship deeply moved Tang Lanxuan.

"Okay, let me handle the communication with the village chief of West Village, and I will also arrange a special identity for your team." Tang Lanxuan showed a pleased smile.

"Thank you, curator!" Lin Ran clasped his hands. With Tang Lanxuan's help, the matter was half successful.

"But there is one condition." Tang Lanxuan said, pretending to be mysterious, "If your team takes out cultural relics from the mausoleum and hopes to sell them to us, we will buy them at the market price. What do you think?"

Tang Lanxuan was not stupid. He knew that the private team with archaeological qualifications that Lin Ran mentioned was what they were if they were not tomb robbers.

However, thieves also have their ways.

Not all tomb robbers will sell cultural relics to foreign countries, leaving a gap in Chinese historical research.

It turned out to be this requirement.

Lin Ran smiled: "Director, don't worry, the person I found is absolutely reliable, and all the things dug up will be donated to the museum."

He originally wanted to give it to the National Palace Museum for free.

However, Liu Jingfeng's arrangements for people to be buried also require costs.

It is better to hire them as a civilian archaeological team and buy things at cost price.

The state can still afford this amount of funding.

All he needed to do was convince Liu Jingfeng to do this, and he decided to see Liu Jingfeng tomorrow for some persuasion.

After all, the cultural relics of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty are more valuable than the cultural relics of the Tang Dynasty. It is probably not easy to persuade them to give up.

After the two reached an agreement, Lin Ran warned again: "Director, there are close associates of Wanner among the museum staff, so you must keep this matter secret and don't let others know."

In order to hide from others, Tang Lanxuan did not send Lin Ran away, but made a phone call!
