Chapter 0886 – Archaeological Team

“Officer Miao, how dare I? Isn’t it our policy to punish those who have been wronged before to prevent those who have been wronged from being wronged, and to cure those who have been wronged to save them? These two brothers aren’t bad by nature, there’s no need to make them spend the rest of their lives in jail because of this mistake, right?”

If it turns out that this is really a royal tomb, then Zhang Daniu brothers’ crime is really not small, even if it’s not life imprisonment, that ten years is always not escape.

“Besides, others are now repentant ah, things have been donated, you just want to convict also.”

Zhuang Rui was about to say down when he saw Miao Fei Fei glaring up and immediately closed his mouth.

“Isn’t this all instigated by you?”

Although the brothers were a bit entangled, but people are quite simple, listening to Zhuang Rui so, Miao Fei Fei also lost the mind to pursue the matter, and immediately said, “Only this time, the next time will not be an exception ah! These local farmers are far more destructive to the ancient tombs than those grave robbers.”

Miao Fei Fei in the past few years handled cases, there are a lot of antique smuggling and excavation cases, a lot of sources are in the local farmers, these people are not cultured, reasoning does not make sense, and local protectionism, is the most difficult to deal with.

And farmers robbing graves, almost all violent excavation, in Hebei there has been a family of three, in broad daylight, with mountain quarrying explosives to blow open the ancient tombs of the incident, at that time around the circle of watching the crowd, you can imagine the degree of ignorance of these people.

“Thank you, thank you Officer Miao, I thank you on behalf of those two brothers.” As soon as Zhuang Rui heard that Miao Fei Fei was relieved, he quickly clasped his fists and bowed.

Zhuang Rui’s last trip to Yu Province had really made a lot of friends, and he still has dealings to this day, so he has a good impression of Yu Province, although there are some black sheep, as the birthplace of the Central Plains civilization, the people are still very simple.

Just like the small village where the Yu brothers hid their stolen goods, as long as there is a little bit of kindness to those villagers, others will even pull out their hearts to you, that is why Zhuang Rui is not willing to see the two Da Niu brothers’ lives being ruined at a young age.

Miao Fei Fei waved her hand and said: “Okay, the latter matter is taken over by the cultural relics department, I don’t care, by the way, that Zhang Da Niu said he still wants to be rewarded? It’s good that we didn’t arrest him.”

“Bullshit, he’s bullshitting, Officer Miao you don’t take it seriously.”

Zhuang Rui forehead sweat are fast down, these two brothers really is not a light, he is also a bitch, obviously two grave robbers, to help them get off not to say, but also upside down to the inside of the sticker money.

A thousand thanks to send away a few police officers led by Miao Fei Fei, Zhuang Rui returned to the store, the second cow is full, this big cow is devouring the rest of the meal, see Zhuang Rui came in, quickly stood up, his mouth is still stuffed with a piece of meat.

“Da Niu, in the future, you can’t do tomb raiding and illegal things again, if you find an ancient tomb, report to the government, otherwise next time the police arrest you, I can’t control it.”

Zhuang Rui patted Da Niu’s shoulder, signaling him to sit down and continue eating.

“Big brother, I know, I definitely won’t do it again in the future, thank you! Big brother ……”

Da Niu had just been educated by the police and knew that although his behavior was nothing in the village, it was indeed against the law, and the several charges that the female officer had just mentioned seemed to be able to be applied to both of their brothers.

“Don’t thank me, you brothers have hands and feet, doing something is quite profitable.”

Zhuang Rui suddenly remembered something, and then said, “Right, when you guys are full, I’ll find a place for you to stay, let’s go to Yu Province tomorrow morning, when we excavate the ancient tombs we have to invite some laborers, by then both of your brothers will come to do it, there are more than a hundred dollars a day!”

Zhuang Rui look at the time, now it is already three or four o’clock in the afternoon, rushing to Yu Province is also too hasty point, thought a moment and Professor Meng to discuss, as far as possible or early tomorrow morning to go.

“More than a hundred a day? That dare good, big brother, after our brother and sister will do with you, into it? In two years I and my brother will be able to get married.”

When Erniu heard Zhuang Rui’s words, his eyes were glowing, he used to work at the construction site, but only forty or fifty dollars a day, but also be deducted by the foreman. And Zhuang Rui said a hundred dollars a day, a month is not more than three thousand, a year is more than thirty thousand? Marrying a daughter-in-law is enough, living a simple life Erniu, has begun to outline his own good life.

“I …… me, monkey, you take them to the guest house next to Panjiayuan to stay.”

Zhuang Rui is really and Erniu can not communicate, this archaeological excavation and not every day, their own where to find so many ancient tombs every day to ask him to dig ah? Also even daughter-in-law are thinking about, Zhuang Rui is really speechless.

After sending away the two brothers, Zhuang Rui returned to the inner room, the cultural relics department has counted these burials, but Professor Meng signed a word, let them send all these things to the Beijing University of Archaeological Research Institute, ready to wait for the trip to the Yu Province, and then carry out research.

After the people from the cultural relics department left, Zhuang Rui walked over to Prof. Meng and said: ”Teacher, it’s very late today, let’s go early tomorrow morning! We’ll be able to arrive near Luoyang in the afternoon.”

“Alright! Let’s drive there tomorrow, there are still some tools to bring.”

Prof. Meng nodded, and after thinking for a while, he then said, “Xiao Ren, you go along too, there might be a bigger discovery this time, in addition to contacting the relevant departments, and letting the local garrison help us look after the site.”

Prof. Meng was doing archaeological research, and knew more than Zhuang Rui about the phenomenon of grave robbing in Yu Province, in the vicinity of Mangshan, many people who farmed with hoes during the day might have touched any grave at night! So if this is not guarded, after the news of the opening of the tomb, I’m afraid that overnight, even the murals in the tunnel can be chiseled clean.

Prof. Meng is often out on site excavation, and the relevant departments are very familiar with, as long as the greeting, the local garrison will generally cooperate.

The next morning more than seven o’clock, Zhuang Rui and Hao Long drove a Hummer received Zhang Da Niu brothers, directly to the Beijing University, Hummer is just bought some time ago, although it is a four-wheeled, but the internal space is very large, the door has been remodeled, and even the King Kong can be stuffed in.

Of course, Zhuang Rui this trip is impossible to bring the King Kong, that guy if you go out to go around, it will become the most valuable news report of the day.

Peng Fei did not come with Zhuang Rui this time, but Hao Long had to follow, these two years of guarding the house, but he was suffocated, while Peng Fei children small, Hao Long became Zhuang Rui’s first bodyguard.

Professor Meng and others also prepared a van, in addition to Professor Meng and Dr. Ren, there are three other staff members of the Institute to go together, counting Zhuang Rui and Hao Long, this archaeological team a total of seven people.

After seeing Zhuang Rui’s car, Prof. Meng put some jacks and other tools in his car, in addition to some ropes and other things, listening to the words of Da Niu, the entrance to the cliff tomb, but on the cliff.

From Beijing to Luo city, a total of 800 kilometers, although the whole highway, but plus the time of lunch, but also enough to run more than nine hours to the evening before arriving in Luo city.

Located in the western part of Yu Province and on the south bank of the Yellow River, Luoyang City was built by the Duke of Zhou in the 12th century B.C. It is one of the eight ancient capitals and one of the first batch of historical and cultural cities announced by the State Council, and it is the only city in Chinese history that has been named “God’s Capital”.

Luo city as the center of the river Luo region, is the important birthplace of Chinese civilization, numerous attractions, such as the Longmen Grottoes, the White Horse Temple, Luoyang eight scenes and so on are renowned, attracting a large number of tourists to visit every year.

Although Zhuang Rui had come to Yu Province, but the last time he went to Zhengzhou, Luo City is the first time to come, he is also full of curiosity about this city, which can be called the home of the ancient emperors.

“Teacher, should we find a hotel to stay in first? And then go to that cliff tomb place tomorrow?”

Zhuang Rui parked the car on the side of the road and touched base with Prof. Meng, on-site archaeological excavation was a new field for Zhuang Rui, he was a rookie in this field.

“Staying in a hotel?”

Professor Meng has not yet answered, the other several people in the car face are showing odd color, see Zhuang Rui some puzzled, can not be a flashlight excavation in the dark, right?

“Xiao Zhuang, our archaeology, pay attention to the proximity and convenience, usually live in the hometown of the family, if you live in the hotel, every day that time is wasted on the road.”

Prof. Meng knew that Zhuang Rui was in good condition and it was also his first time to participate in an archaeological excavation, so he patiently explained it to him.

“Oh, so it’s like this, teacher, then let’s stay at Da Niu’s and their house!”

Zhuang Rui was quite a bit embarrassed after hearing Prof. Meng’s words, he himself was living in the rural villager’s house with his granddaughter and two disciples when he first met Prof. Meng a few years ago.

Professor Meng nodded and said, “OK, ask them, if it’s convenient, live in their house, we’ll give a hundred dollars allowance per day, in addition to asking if you can find someone to cook?”

Zhuang Rui went back to the car and the Da Niu brothers said a day to give a hundred dollars, the two brothers were happy, their family has four tiled rooms and a big yard, enough for these people to live.

“A hundred dollars a day, live for a year is 36,500 dollars, plus our parents cooking for 50 dollars a day, brother, if they live for two years, we do not do anything, that money is enough to get a wife.”

Although Erniu’s brain lacks a bone, but it is very sensitive to the numbers, this will be again on the chanting, listening to sitting in front of Zhuang Rui almost collapse.
