Chapter 958 Jade Pig
Qin Zhengyang said: "I don't know, but this matter should be related to Carnival Department Store. The boss of Carnival Department Store and Huanian Group is Tang Jingwei."
Wang Jianming took a sip of tea: "So, this Tang Jingwei is really having a bad time."
Qin Zhengyang said: "I don't know this person well. I have had several contacts with Huanian CEO Tang Jinglun in the past."
Wang Jianming said: "You are right. Now that this matter has been exposed, it will not be easily settled. There will definitely be follow-up. We must investigate this matter clearly to avoid falling into passivity."
Qin Zhengyang said: "Do you need the police to intervene?"
Wang Jianming said: "Find a reliable person to clarify the situation first. It is best to start with the old lady, so that she can tell the real situation without any worries."
Qin Zhengyang said: "Okay, I'll do it right away."
Wang Jianming said: "It's best not to make this matter public, otherwise it will be difficult to handle it if it scares the snake."
Xu Chunliang left a little late because he was chatting with Fan Lida. When he was about to get in the car and leave, he received a call from Liang Hongtao.
“Uncle Xu?”
Xu Chunliang said: "It's me." When he was talking to Liang Hongtao outside just now, Liang Hongtao took the initiative to ask for his phone number.
Liang Hongtao said: "Uncle Xu, I know you. You beat people in the past and were on the hot search."
Xu Chunliang burst into laughter. Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles away. He didn't expect that even children would know that he was on the hot search for beating someone.
Liang Hongtao said: "Uncle Xu, there were so many people just now that it's not convenient for me to tell you. Do you have time? I want to meet you alone."
Xu Chunliang estimated that it was probably about his grandma. Xu Chunliang had been very busy recently, and he had no intention of getting involved in what happened last night.
But Liang Hongtao said again: "Uncle Xu, I have something important to report to you. I'll wait for you at the door of the rice noodle shop opposite No. 3 Middle School." He hung up the phone without waiting for Xu Chunliang's agreement.
Xu Chunliang felt a little helpless. He did say just now that the child could come to him if he encountered difficulties, but he didn't expect that he would come to his door so soon.
Not far away, Ye Qingya walked towards him: "Chunliang, you haven't left yet?"
Xu Chunliang smiled and said, "Sister Qingya, when did you come here?"
Ye Qingya said: "I came with my senior sister to have a look. I accepted the invitation from the Bureau of Culture and Tourism, so I have to go through a formality, right?" She looked at Xu Chunliang's Passat and said, "Send me to the hotel."
Xu Chunliang nodded. Anyway, he had to pass through No. 3 Middle School to go to Marriott. He drove to the place agreed by Liang Hongtao and saw Liang Hongtao waiting at the door of the rice noodle restaurant.
Xu Chunliang stopped the car, lowered the window and waved to Liang Hongtao.
Liang Hongtao walked over and immediately hesitated when he saw someone else in Xu Chunliang's car.
Xu Chunliang said: "Get in the car, this is my sister, not an outsider."
After getting in the car, Liang Hongtao called Uncle Xu, and then called Ye Qingya Auntie.
Ye Qingya couldn't help but laugh and said, "You should call me brother or sister."
Xu Chunliang said: "Tell me, what do you want from me?"
Liang Hongtao hesitated for a moment, then took a piece of jade from his neck and handed it to Xu Chunliang: "Uncle, look at it, is this a cultural relic?"
Xu Chunliang took it and took a look. If he had known this, he would have brought Pu Jian here. He had little research on this aspect and glanced at Ye Qingya.
Ye Qingya understood what he meant and reached out to take the piece of jade. The carving was a jade pig. The material was typical Hetian jade. The jade was hard in texture and warm in color. Judging from the material and carving style, it was typical of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Jade from the middle period.
Look carefully at the words engraved on the top. Because jade itself has high hardness and is smooth at the same time, it is not easy to carve patterns on the surface of jade, and it is even more difficult to carve regular words. Therefore, there are very few words on jade. Before the Eastern Han Dynasty, only There are a few jade seals with seals engraved on them. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, while the jade carving processing skills improved, a new form of decorating jade with auspicious words appeared. The descendants of Changyi above are commonly used auspicious words to ward off evil spirits.
Ye Qingya said: "Where did you get this piece of jade?"
Liang Hongtao looked at Ye Qingya warily.
Xu Chunliang said: "Don't worry, just say it."
Liang Hongtao said: "It's a relic left to me by my father."
“Did your grandma give it to you?”
Liang Hongtao nodded.
Ye Qingya said: "This jade is from the Eastern Han Dynasty. It uses the typical carving technique of the Eight Swordsmen of the Han Dynasty. If you look closely, this jade pig has the decorative characteristics of hardness and softness and jade carving skills. The carving is rough and powerful, clean and sharp, and there is no sloppiness. The sense of dullness is a rare treasure." She was full of curiosity as to how such a beautiful jade article fell into the hands of this child.
Xu Chunliang said: "Do you have anything like this at home?"
Liang Hongtao bit his lip and said, "Uncle Xu, if I hand this thing over to the state, will my grandma be fine?" Xu Chunliang said, "She doesn't understand the situation, so she should be fine." After seeing this jade pig, , the situation has become clear. In all likelihood, it was Liang Zhigang who discovered the ancient tomb. Several people who were involved at the time did not report the matter and chose to privately divide the cultural relics in the ancient tomb and then bulldoze the ancient tomb. Construction of the building continues.
It seems that Liang Zhigang's death was probably due to uneven distribution of the spoils, or it was possible that he was killed and silenced.
Liang Hongtao said: "Uncle Xu, my grandma is afraid of delaying my future, but I am not afraid. My father was probably killed by someone, and I must find out the truth."
Ye Qingya didn't know what was happening and looked at Xu Chunliang in surprise.
Xu Chunliang said: "Xiao Tao, don't worry, I will try my best to help you find out, but this thing alone doesn't seem to have much effect."
Liang Hongtao said: "There may be a few more at home, but I don't know where they are hidden. I also played with a seal when I was a child."
Ye Qingya asked: "Where is the seal?" The seal is the most direct evidence to find out the identity of the tomb owner. It would be best if there is a seal.
Liang Hongtao shook his head and said he didn't know where the seal was, but he took out a comic book.
Ye Qingya took it and opened it, seeing a few crooked seals stamped on it.
Ye Qingya whispered: "The seal of the Marquis of Chu Wu." After studying the seal for a while, his eyes turned to Liang Hongtao: "Do you remember what that seal looked like at that time?"
Liang Hongtao said: "It's been too long. I don't remember the specific shape. It's just a copper one."
Ye Qingya said: "Is there a turtle on the seal?"
Liang Hongtao nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, I remembered it. It has a little turtle on it. I really like it."
Ye Qingya and Xu Chunliang looked at each other. According to the regulations of the Han Dynasty, the emperor's jade seal has a tiger button, the queen's golden seal has a tiger button, the princes and kings use gold camel buttons, and the princes, prime ministers, lieutenants, and generals use gold turtle buttons, etc. . It seems that Liang Hongtao's jade pig and the yet-to-be-appeared seal were dug out from the tomb of the Marquis Wu of Chu.
Most of the people who could be granted a title in the Han Dynasty were named Liu. For details, you need to read the relevant information.
Liang Hongtao saw their serious expressions and knew that this matter was not trivial. He was already seventeen years old and had his own judgment on many things. Because of his grandma's complaint today, Liang Hongtao also began to realize that his father's death was not that simple.
Liang Hongtao said: "Uncle Xu, I only have one request. Find out the truth about my father's death. I will persuade my grandma to donate everything. You don't hold her responsible, okay?"
Xu Chunliang comforted him and said: "Xiao Tao, don't worry, I will handle this matter well. Who else knows about this matter besides me?"
Liang Hongtao said: "I didn't tell anyone else. I think you can trust me."
Xu Chunliang said that you have found the right person, and told Liang Hongtao: "Just pretend that nothing happened about this matter, and don't mention it to your grandma about our meeting. Also, pay attention to it. There have been some recent incidents." Someone contacted your grandma, someone called her.”
Liang Hongtao said: "Okay."
Xu Chunliang handed the jade pig to Liang Hongtao. Liang Hongtao said he didn't want it and asked Xu Chunliang to keep it. He would also persuade his grandmother to donate the other cultural relics.
Ye Qingya watched Liang Hongtao get out of the car and walked into the campus, and sighed: "This kid is quite smart."
Xu Chunliang said: "He has a very clear mind and knows how to avoid risks."
Ye Qingya said: "If he didn't go to the police, why would he go to you?"
Xu Chunliang said: "Maybe it's fate."
Ye Qingya laughed: "I heard him just say it was because he saw you on the trending search. He is probably a fan of yours."
Xu Chunliang said: "I didn't expect that you can gain fans by beating people." He looked at the jade pig and handed it to Ye Qingya for further study. The two did not leave immediately.
Xu Chunliang sat in the car and called Ding Si. Ding Si also started his own business by working in gravel and earthworks. The people in this business in Dongzhou should have some friendship with each other.
When Ding Si heard Xu Chunliang mention Liang Zhigang, he immediately said that he knew this person. Liang Zhigang was also a ruthless character during his lifetime, and he was often in and out of fights.
Xu Chunliang understood after hearing this. No wonder Liang Hongtao wasn't worried about the political review issue. He couldn't pass this test at all.
Xu Chunliang said: "Fourth brother, do you still remember how he died?"
Ding Si said: "It seems that he was run over to death by a garbage truck on the construction site after drinking too much. This kind of thing happens often, but it is rare to be run over by your own garbage truck."
Xu Chunliang asked bluntly: "Fourth brother, have you heard about the Han tombs excavated at the Jianian Square construction site?"
Ding Si said: "I haven't heard of it, but there are many Han tombs in Dongzhou. In the past, the management was not so strict. Ancient tombs were often dug out at construction sites. Anyway, as long as it is not a huge tomb, no one would bother to report it to the Cultural Relics Bureau. , most of them were filled in when it was dark, otherwise the construction schedule would be delayed. In the last century, wherever there was a construction site, there were cultural relic dealers. This was an open secret. Management was relatively loose at that time, but it is not the case now. If anyone discovers that ancient cultural relics have been concealed and refuses to report them, his or her home will be confiscated and he or she will be imprisoned."
Xu Chunliang said: "Please help me find out who Liang Zhigang worked with back then, and who was the builder of the Carnival Plaza construction site?"
Ding Si agreed with a big deal.
