Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

After booking the car, Lin Ran agreed to pick it up next week.

The next day, when they arrived at the Palace Museum, Tang Lanxuan arranged a new task for Lin Ran.

Lin Ran had no choice but to take Mr. Chen's car and together they came to an archaeological site in the suburbs.

The archaeological team is busy here.

A woman in sportswear ran over, saw Mr. Chen and Lin Ran, and said hello.

Then the work was reported.

It turned out that it was already the third day since they were conducting rescue excavations here.

The ancient artifacts in the tomb are being unearthed.

They have been piled up next to them. At a glance, they are basically all porcelain bottles.

Lin Ran took a look and found that these porcelains were not considered valuables.

And it has nothing to do with him.Lin Ran also turned his attention away from the antiques.

Xu Jieyun stood nearby and guided the archaeological team's work.

Lin Ran didn't understand why he was transferred here and why he had to go to the grave.

Seeing him doing nothing, Xu Jieyun said angrily: "You must be Mr. Lin, go over there and help Mr. Chen."

Lin Ran pretended not to hear it and still smiled at Xu Jieyun.

He was still needed for these small things. Mr. Chen didn't even call him over to help. It was obvious that he wanted him to watch here.

Not long after, another burial object was dug out of the ground.

Taking a closer look, it turned out to be a jade carving.

Lin Ran's eyes lit up at the first sight.

As the saying goes, jade-like utensils are white in appearance.

There is some microqin inside, which is obviously jade used for burial.

Lin Ran saw the staff placing it on the ground. He put on his gloves, held them in his hands, and looked at them.

One side of the jade has some red color, making it look a bit ominous.

This kind of jade can only be collected by museums.

On the other side, there are relief carvings.

The relief is somewhat damaged, but it can be seen from the undamaged parts that the carving is very fine.

Lin Ran looked a little confused.

Lin Ran silently took the jade, slowly sat down under the tree next to him, and put his hand against his chin as if thinking.

Xu Jieyun, who was directing the on-site work, reacted strangely when he saw Lin Ran.

He instructs others to act according to the situation and pay attention to safety.

Then he came to Lin Ran and asked, "Mr. Lin, is there any problem with this?"

Lin Ran didn't answer.

"I'm asking you a question." Xu Jieyun is also a small leader. This is the first time he has seen such an unreasonable person.

Only then did Lin Ran react. He raised his head and looked at Xu Jieyun, with some confusion in his eyes.

Xu Jieyun originally thought that he was deliberately arguing with her, but now she felt that something was not right.

"This is a jade belt, not a jade carving." Lin Ran said.

Xu Jieyun didn't know what he was talking about for a moment.

Lin Ran said: "This jade is wrong."

Xu Jieyun walked over, also put on gloves and took the jade carving from Lin Ran's hand.

He put it under the sun and said, "Isn't this just an ordinary waist jade? Is there anything wrong with it?"

She still felt strange in her heart that these were the reinforcements sent to her by the museum.

The legendary Master Lin is nothing special.

Looking at Mr. Chen who had been working hard, Xu Jieyun smiled disdainfully, thinking that Lin Ran was just a pretentious guy.

Maybe he has some knowledge about antiques, but he has no idea about going to the tomb.

The jade carvings in front of me are very common burial objects and have little value.

It's just that in ancient times, nobles would take some things to the bottom, and they had to make up the numbers to make themselves look more noble.

Lin Ran shook his head and said, "No, it's not waist jade."

"Do you really understand archeology?" Xu Jieyun said angrily.

Lin Ran smiled and said: "This is indeed not a waist jade, but a jade belt."

Lin Ran stood up and gestured on his body, then stretched out his hand to show Xu Jieyun.

I saw that there were two holes on the side of the jade carving.

If matched with a belt, it can indeed go straight through the entire jade piece.

It is not a jade worn around the waist, but a real jade belt.

As if to confirm his guess, soon after, the staff dug out jade carvings with similar shapes and specifications.

Stacked together, there are six pieces in total.

Lin Ran frowned and looked at the circle of jade fragments placed on the ground.

"No, the quantity is small."

The staff thought they were dissatisfied with their low work efficiency, and they were a little unhappy at the time.

"Why are there less? We have pooped around the main tomb market, that's all."

"If you think the quantity is wrong, go and see for yourself."

Lin Ran didn't expect the people in the archaeological team to be so arrogant. He just clicked and the number was not right.

Because a pre-belt of this size would need at least fifteen or six pieces to encircle a person's waist.

There are only six pieces now, which is a small amount no matter how you look at it.

Lin Ran could only smile politely and said, "You can check it carefully again."

"You have to go on your own." The leader said somewhat unhappily.

But at this moment, Xu Jieyun's stern voice came from behind.

"Zhao Da, then take someone down to check. Just go and check."

Xu Jieyun is the person in charge of this area, and it is also related to the wages of others.

The man in front of me is not a full-time member of the archaeological team, but a temporary worker.

After hearing Xu Jieyun's order, he had no choice but to shake the towel around his neck, and then said to the people behind him with a dejected expression: "Let's go, let's get to work."

Everyone looked at Lin Ran with hostile eyes before going to the grave.

But their work went quite smoothly this time, and they actually found a bunch of jade carvings.

However, they obviously had no intention of repenting. They put the jade sculpture on the ground and sat down next to it: "We are all tired and we won't go down anymore."

Archeology had nothing to do with Lin Ran. Lin Ran checked the jade carvings dug out this time.

There are twelve pieces in total.

Lin Ran clicked on the quantity, and seeing their impatience, he replied: "That's almost it."

Hearing Lin Ran's answer, the leader said unhappily: "Okay, let's do this for now."

"Brothers, let's go home for dinner."

After saying that, he waved his hand and left the scene with his people.

Xu Jieyun said from the side: "Are you leaving now? Remember to come over in the afternoon."

The other party didn't answer, and pretended to just wave his hand to indicate that he heard.

Xu Jieyun held his forehead: "These people invited from outside are really unreliable."

Lin Ran asked curiously: "What? Not from your archaeological team?"

"The archaeological team is currently short of people." Xu Jieyun said with a headache, but she did not continue. Obviously some things involved confidentiality.

Lin Ran looked at the pile of jade pieces placed on the table, thoughtfully.

When I arrived, I was told that this was the tomb of a wealthy businessman from the Ming Dynasty, but judging from the pile of jade pieces, that didn't seem to be the case. It was obviously the equipment of a military commander.
