There was no room for ambiguity when it came to archeology.
In a sense, archaeology was studying the past.
What happened during that period of time? What were the local customs? What were the specific events?
If there was a mistake, it would really be a thousand miles away.
Just like now.
If it weren't for the carbon-14 test results, which confirmed that the iron sheet came from the Southern Song Dynasty 800 years ago, then according to normal understanding, everyone would think that this ironclad ship should be a product of the latter half of the 19th century.
After all, he had never heard of ironclad ships before.
However, with the appearance of this test result, everyone finally understood that this was the masterpiece of our ancestor!
"Well, Little Zhou, let's go to the conference room and have a chat.”
Hu Jinquan looked at Zhou Kai with a kind gaze. He politely invited him to the meeting room.
Zhou Kai naturally understood what he meant. He nodded and agreed.
After all, he had a request from the Cultural Relics Administration.
No matter what, cooperation was the only way to achieve a win-win situation.
Whether it was work or business, it was the same.
When the netizens in the live broadcast room saw this scene, they all started to make noise.
"F * ck!"
"Are they planning to nationalize the country?”
"It can't be. It's just a ship. We don't even know what kind of ship it is.”
"What's going on?"
"It doesn't seem like a good thing. Could it be that he wants Emperor Kai to hand it over?”
"Probably not."
"I don't think this bureau chief is that shameless, right?”
"There must be something else."
"Let's wait and see."
“…………”
Under everyone's gaze, Zhou Kai and his group followed Hu Jinquan to the conference room of the Cultural Relics Administration.
"Uh, are you guys still broadcasting?”
Hu Jinquan asked curiously when he saw the phone in Zhou Shu Yi's hand.
"Yes."
"I'll turn it off if you think it's inconvenient, Chief Hu." Zhou Shu Yi nodded.”
"It's okay, it's okay."
Hu Jinquan waved his hand." It's not a big deal. Go ahead and broadcast."”
This was the truth.
What he was going to say next was indeed nothing to hide from the public. Hu Jinquan felt that there was nothing to hide, so he did not mind Zhou Shuyi's live broadcast.
However, the netizens were a little surprised. They didn't expect Bureau Chief Hu to be so calm!
Everyone sat down in the conference room. Hu Jinquan was the first to speak,"Comrade Xiao Zhou, let me make it short. What do you think of this ironclad ship from the Southern Song Dynasty?”
"I think this should be a wooden boat. It's just that the hull or some part of the hull is wrapped in iron sheets to make the boat stronger.”
" Also," Zhou Kai said slowly," I suspect that it's a merchant ship and not a warship.”
"Oh?"
Hu Jinquan was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said,"Why do you say that?"
"If it's a warship, there's no need to cover the mast with iron sheets.”
Zhou Kai said," Warships usually place an iron sheet on the dragon's head. What do you think?”
"That makes sense."
"To be honest, it's too early to discuss whether it's a warship or a merchant ship." But I can tell you clearly that Qionghai belonged to the Silk Road during the Southern Song Dynasty.”
"The so-called Silk Road on the Sea is a sea channel for trade and cultural exchanges between our country and foreign countries in ancient times. It is divided into two routes, the East China Sea route and the South China Sea route. The Silk Road on the Sea sprouted in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, developed in the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period, formed in the Qin and Han Dynasties, flourished in the Tang and Song Dynasties, and changed in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It was the oldest sea route known.”
"During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, the main commodity that supported the Silk Road on the sea changed from silk to porcelain.”
"The Song Dynasty's 'Pingzhou Can Be Talked About' records maritime traffic and trade. The depth and width of the ships were hundreds of feet each. The merchants divided the goods stored in the ships, each of whom had a few feet or so. They went down to store their goods and slept on them at night. The goods are mostly pottery, big and small, and there is no small gap.”
At this point.
He smiled." Nowadays, many young people don't know. At that time, once our country's porcelain was shipped abroad, its price was really comparable to gold. It was regarded as a treasure and a symbol of your status in foreign countries.”
Hearing his words.
Apart from Zhou Kai, the netizens in the live broadcast room and Zhou Shuyi, who was sitting beside him, were all dumbfounded.
No one had expected this.
During the Southern Song Dynasty, our country's foreign trade actually flourished to that extent.
This was too exaggerated!
