On April 25th, Nong Bosheng finally arrived in Xiangjiang, accompanied by two staff members of the exhibition hall, who were also students taught by Comrade Curator. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

I made an appointment to meet at the Peninsula Hotel in advance, and when Zhang Nan met with Nong Bosheng alone, he made sure that the two people who came together were reliable, so he took the three of them to his suite.

"It is true that people who are engaged in academic research only think about bamboo slips when they come in!" People from the mainland will surely be attracted by the environment when they enter a place like the presidential suite of the Peninsula Hotel! But Nong Bosheng and his two students did not pay attention to the luxurious environment here at all, and at most they expressed their feelings about the extravagance of capitalism at the woolen carpet here in the aisle.

As soon as they entered the living room of the suite, the three of them stared at the three lacquerware boxes placed on the huge coffee table.

"It's right here, and when the time comes, the box will be taken away, and it's very likely that it will be in this state of preservation when it is unearthed. ”

Zhang Nan motioned for the three of them to please.

Now Zhang Nan and the others can be regarded as seeing what it means to be a real researcher of ancient culture: Nong Bosheng and the three of them are like obsessed, and they can't get out of the pile of bamboo slips.

For two hours, Nong Bosheng asked the two students to repack the three boxes.

"Mr. Zhang..."

"Don't, it's okay to call me Xiao Zhang or Ah Zhang Nan!"

"Xiao Zhang, I really want to thank you for your research on Chinese history this time

Great contribution!"

Nong Bosheng was a little excited, including the two researchers.

Zhang Nan motioned to everyone to be casual and not to be so serious and formal.

"Curator Nong, haven't you reached such a high level?"

"Xiao Zhang, you may not know: this batch of bamboo slips is basically not wrong with the Chu State during the Warring States Period, not only has extremely important historical and cultural research value, but also ends the case of a Zhuang Gong in the history of Chinese scriptures!"

"Director Nong, I have heard of the truth of this "Zuo Chuan", but I don't know the details very well, our cultural level is limited, there is no way. ”

He used to be an antique dealer and collector, but he was not a researcher of ancient culture, and he didn't even know a little about scriptures.

Nong Bosheng took a sip of water and said: "That's right, the dispute over the authenticity of "Zuo Chuan" has been going on for a long time, because "Zuo Chuan" is one of the basic documents for the study of the pre-Qin Dynasty, but it was listed as a banned book in the Qin Dynasty, and a book burning pit almost made this classic disappear.

In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, Zhang Cang dedicated the book, and then the "Zuo Chuan" was famous for a long time as the "Spring and Autumn Zuo Biography", and its author and the age of the book were a "big case, important case" in the history of scripture, and even suspected of being a fake book made up by Liu Xin during the two Han Dynasty. ”

When Zhang Nan heard this, he said, "Is this Liu Xin the one who wants to assassinate Wang Mang and finally commit suicide?"

"Yes, that's him. ”

Nong Bosheng said: "At present, this Liu Xin is really wronged! Liu Fenglu, a scholar of the Qing Dynasty, believes in the "Zuo's Spring and Autumn Examination" that Liu Xin reversed the Five Classics and tampered with the "Zuo Chuan". and Kang Youwei's "Xinxue Pseudo-scripture Examination" also believes that Liu Xin forged "Zuo Chuan" and completely denied this book.

This view has also been recognized by scholars such as Gu Jiegang and Qian Xuan, and Zhang Xitang also agrees with this view.

Of course, there are also quite "Zuo Chuan": Zhang Taiyan's "Spring and Autumn Zuo Chuan Reading", Liu Shipei's "Zhou Qin Zhuzi's Explanation of the Zuo Chuan Examination", "Zuo's Study in the Western Han Dynasty Examination" and other treatises all strongly argue that "Zuo Chuan" is not a fake book.

In the article "Annals of Liu Xiangxin's Father and Son", Qian Mu listed 28 questions to refute Kang Youwei's point of view, proving that Liu Xin could not have tampered with the book, which was widely endorsed by the academic community at that time after its publication.

At present, most Chinese scholars believe that Kang Youwei's criticism shows the bias of the scripture portal and serves his political views of "Tuogu reform"!

However, the controversy over the authenticity of Zuo Chuan has not completely ended, and the Xichuan scholar Xu Renfu continued to insist on the view that Zuo Chuan is later than Shi Ji in his book Zuo Chuan Evidence published in 1981, but this view is no longer accepted and supported by most scholars......

To tell the truth, hearing this, Zhang Nan has also figured out something: with the bamboo slips of the "Zuo Chuan" in the Warring States Period as evidence, the "fake book" theory is self-defeating!

"Xiao Zhang, there are thousands of bamboo slips here, although they have been dispersed, they can basically be determined to be the content of the book "Zuo Chuan", which can correspond to the currently circulating version, but there are a few contents that I have never seen.

Although it will take a lot of time to sort out and research this time, there are two things that can be certain!"

"First, the Zuo Chuan that has been circulated since ancient times is the original one, and second, there may be missing chapters in the version that has been circulated today, and these bamboo slips can give us the answer. ”

When Zhang Nan heard this, he said, "It's a pity, it's not the whole book." ”

A "Zuo Biography" has more than 100,000 words, and the bamboo slips here are obviously not enough.

"Hehe, this is already good, if you didn't buy and donate this batch of bamboo slips, I don't know what would have happened in the end. ”

At this time, the two students of Nong Bosheng had been led to the bathroom by Master Xiao Chen, and those who stayed in the living room were "their own people"

Speaking of this, Nong Bosheng said with emotion: "I have been to Xiangjiang twice before, and there are so many Chinese cultural relics that have been resold here! But the funds are limited, and every time there are regrets, our money is too little!"

"By the way, Xiao Zhang, take the liberty of asking, if it's convenient, can you tell me how much money you spent on this batch of bamboo slips?"

It's nerdy angry coming up.

Zhang Nan glanced at Comrade Curator and said, "It didn't cost much, 300,000 Hong Kong dollars." ”

Nong Bosheng gasped!

300,000 Hong Kong dollars! This is a huge amount of foreign exchange, and it is very difficult to approve it if it is him!

300,000 yuan he has a way, but foreign exchange?

No way!

Zhang Nan thought for a while and said, "To be honest, you are my brother-in-law's brother-in-law, and we are also relatives." I'm afraid of trouble, and if it weren't for safety, I wouldn't have thought of your Yongcheng Museum. ”

Speaking of this, Nong Bosheng immediately said: "I promised Wei Rong to keep it secret, then it must be kept secret! Me and my two students, you can definitely rest assured, unless Xiao Zhang wants to make this matter public one day, otherwise the three of us will definitely keep silent, and whoever asks will do the same!"

When you do research, sometimes it's just a tendon.

"Hehe, if I don't believe you, even if I give you something, I won't show up today.

Even my brother-in-law doesn't know exactly what I'm doing at the moment. ”

Saying this, Zhang Nan stopped: "I will tell my brother-in-law when I go back, if your museum needs to acquire some precious Chinese cultural relics that have been lost overseas, but the funds are really tight, you can call him to find me."

But, again, it needs to be kept absolutely secret! And I have two more conditions!"

Nong Bosheng was already overjoyed, not to mention two conditions, he also agreed to ten conditions!

"Xiao Zhang, I have carried it all over during the special period, if my students and I don't want to talk, no one can let us speak! As long as I can do it, I will definitely say yes!"

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, I was able to study in the Soviet Union, and there were a few of them with a simple background!

"First, when I have time, I will go to Yongcheng and ask you about some knowledge of Western antiques and artworks, as well as Jinwen. ”

"No problem!" Nong Bosheng immediately agreed.

"Second, I know that your museum has an old warehouse that has been accumulated for decades, and it is full of antiques that can't be on the stand, and I want to take a look and pick one, and I can buy the right one according to the market price of the antiquities store. ”

"There's no problem with that, the exhibition hall is small at the moment, only the best products are on display, and there are some things in that warehouse that were supposed to be disposed of as scrap. I can sell you as much as you want, I can make a decision on this, and no one will gossip. ”

"Well, it's a deal!"

Zhang Nan was also happy: Is he really casual and generous in front of him?

Not exactly: the warehouse of the Yongcheng Exhibition Hall is very huge, and it is a huge treasure trove!

And even if you don't take this opportunity to start, it will slowly be lost in the next few years: although the things inside are not ancient treasures, they are unimaginably rich! The simplest: even the big bronze cannons of the Qing Dynasty have them!

As long as there is foreign exchange, the cannon can also be sold!

And many things that were not important in the 80s and could only be put in the warehouse to accumulate dust, or even sold as scrap, will be treasures ten years later!

Send one, and you can get back at least ten!
