Chapter 433: Words Worth Their Weight in Gold! Simply Incredible!

“You people!” Chen Gang, at this moment, was speechless, taken aback by the criticism.

“What do you mean ‘you people’? If you want to do the translation, go ahead and do it!”

“If not, then kindly leave.”

“When you arrive here, if you are not ready to work, then what do you intend to

“What do you think this place is?”

Upon hearing these words, Chen Gang’s face turned dark with irritation, his back molars practically gnashing in anger. He felt that something was not right. Was the other person deliberately provoking him? But he was overthinking it. No one had any such intention. The reality was that at the site now was a super expert, an incredibly skilled Oracle bone script translator. Everything and anything simply did not require his involvement.

Perhaps Chen Gang used to be highly sought-after, but now, no one paid him any attention. Regardless, Chen Gang got to work. Today was unlike any other day. After all, he was no longer the king of the scenario, and thus, it was best to get busy.

“Stop digging, all of you, go up and let others take over. Don’t exhaust yourselves!” Luo Feng, despite his activities, still did not forget to instruct the archaeologists to begin the excavation.

As the time was ripe, a new batch of workers was called in. They were not pretentious. When they were tired, they rested, letting others continue the excavation.

Quickly, a day passed and it was the morning of the second day at ten o’clock. The distance to the bronze cauldron was less than half a meter. The group was already exhausted. In the middle of the night, Luo Feng had called for a helicopter.

This added many more hands to the effort.

In accordance with Luo Feng’s requirements, many excavation tools and digging tools were purchased. Moreover, there were drag bags.

After all, once the Nine Zhou Ding was excavated, it would have to be transported out.

“Finally, it has been dug out. Our host has a body forged from iron! Two consecutive nights, truly invincible!”

“He’s already so rich, yet he’s still so dedicated, this host, truly makes the capitalists cry! ”

“Finally, the Nine Zhou Ding is about to be seen, I’m genuinely very excited!”

“Do not get excited prematurely. What if it is not what we think it is, then all this excitement would have been for nothing!”

“How is that possible! I feel that whatever the host sees, he is generally not wrong! ”

“That’s right, as long as the host makes a claim, I have ten thousand beliefs in

After half an hour of continued excavation, this piece of land was completely dug to the bottom.

The base was now flat.

Those responsible for excavating the bronze cauldron were cleaning up the dirt on the side, while Luo Feng began to clear the dirt around the bronze cauldron.

The general appearance of the object had emerged.

Its diameter was approximately as they had estimated.

Roughly around 5 meters.

Circular opening.

Two ears.

On the bronze cauldron, many intricate patterns could be seen, a true testament to the highly skilled craftsmanship of the ancient artists.

Around the pit, many people were watching. Seeing such an object unearthed, their hearts were extremely excited.

By about twelve o’clock, the work on the bronze cauldron was almost complete.

These people were even more excited. “The cauldron has inscriptions!”

“The inscriptions bear a name!”

“The characters on this could very well be from the Xia Dynasty!”

By estimation, once the bronze cauldron was fully excavated, it should be about seven to eight meters tall, which would take another two hours or so. But now, the upper and middle parts of the bronze cauldron were fully revealed.

“Let’s take a break, eat lunch, then come back to excavate!”

Climbing up from the pit, Luo Feng sat on the ground, beginning to eat with the archaeology team.

Of course, this food was prepared by the team.

Very plentiful indeed.

Beef, mutton, vegetables, nothing was lacking.

“Little Luo, let me introduce someone to you. This person is a highly skilled Oracle bone script translator from Taiwan. He’s very good with Oracle bone script!” Professor Li introduced irritably.

Of course, Luo Feng glanced at the man, noticing his prideful expression.

It did not appear to be the arrogance of a scholar.

Rather, it was the arrogance of a nouveau riche.

However, upon thinking more about it, translating Oracle bone script was indeed quite a profitable venture.

After all, Oracle Bone Scripts had been discovered for 120 years, but our understanding of it is still insufficient.

Professor Huang Dekuan, the executive deputy director of the Document

Research and Protection Center of QingxO University and the curator of the Museum of Characters, said that there are still many problems with Oracle bone script. One is recognizing the characters, two is the number of pieces, and three is dating. For example, in terms of character recognition, scholars have compiled more than 4,300 characters in Oracle bone script dictionaries, of which more than 2,000 characters have been studied. However, there are only over 1,300 characters that have reached a consensus on their translations, and over half of the characters are still not recognized and are stored in the appendix of the dictionary for future study.

The Oracle bones discovered at Yin Ruins in 1899 are one of the “four major discoveries” in modern Chinese historical materials. Over the past 100 years, several generations of scholars have pursued, guarded, and explored them, and a series of landmark achievements in Oracle bone script research have been published.
