The museum's cultural relic restoration room is very large, with lifting pulleys and tracks in the sky, and the interior is very dry.

Yang Xiuwen was allowed to enter only after changing into cotton work clothes.

After entering, I saw the master Zhou Xingwen squatting in front of a bronze wheel and working. When I walked closer, I found him cleaning it with a brush.

After seeing him, Zhou Xingwen asked, "Didn't you go to the tomb with your Uncle Zhao? Why are you back?"

Yang Xiuwen brought a chair, helped him up and sat on the chair, ran to the table next to him, poured him a cup of tea and handed it to him.

He took the brush in his hand and said: "Master, the work over there is almost over. The Tang Dynasty murals are too precious, so there are mural conservation experts to take over."

Wearing gloves and holding a brush, he came to the wheel and said, "Master, let's clean it. I'll do it, and you can guide me."

Zhou Xingwen looked at him happily and said: "Okay, let me tell you, you do it. If you see that there is no brush next to you, first use it to sweep away the sand and soil on the surface, then use a wooden knife to carefully scrape off the rust, and then dip it in with the brush.

Wash the water in the basin cleanly."

After hearing this, Yang Xiuwen squatted down and started moving his hands.

Zhou Xingwen looked at the agile apprentice and continued, "The restoration of cultural relics is a scientific research work that integrates brain power, physical strength, and technology.

It is technical, professional and practical, involving history, archaeology, epigraphy, fine arts, and metal craft related disciplines.

Bronze repair must follow traditional techniques such as shaping, distressing, and refinishing.

Bronze vessels will be damaged more or less during the process of excavation and transportation.

Therefore, there will be processes such as correction, cleaning, welding, gluing, and even mold recasting, distressing, etc. After repair, rust prevention and other work will also be done.

The water in front of you is special.

It must be neutral and mild water to ensure that the bronze will not be re-oxidized by the air after it is unearthed."

Zhou Xingwen spoke carefully, and he listened carefully. At the same time, he was impressed by the complexity and professionalism of cultural relic restoration, and admired the master's profound knowledge even more.

Twelve days later.

In front of Yang Xiuwen and his master, a thousand-year-old bronze carriage that had been reborn stood in front of them.

The frame is five meters long, nearly two meters wide, and the wheels are tall.

The sides of the wheel axle are 30 centimeters longer and are triangular in shape with sharp ends.

There are plinths all around the body, and there is no canopy. It is a typical battle tank.

Yang Xiuwen wore gloves and gently touched the typical animal-shaped patterns of the Qin Dynasty on the car body, as if he saw it charging and killing in a war.

And his master was watching him recall the experiences of the past few days. This apprentice was like a machine, precise and fast, and he picked up the huge bronze car body easily.

No lifting machinery was used during this period, and the entire process was done manually.

As long as he explained the work procedures and key points, he would be fine. During this period, the apprentice even changed and poured tea for him, and he was just like a spectator.

This is the most relaxing time since he started doing repair work. His waist is not sore and his legs are not hurting...

Yang Xiuwen himself also gained something.

In addition to the vast knowledge of cultural relic restoration, my body has been pushed to its limits.

Squatting for half a day is more than most people can endure, that is, him.

Rapidly operating internal energy circulates through the meridians throughout the body. The meridians are continuously widened and strengthened, and the martial arts realm reaches the late stage of Ming Jin without even realizing it.

The Five Elements Technique has also been improved due to the absorption of dark energy in the Tang Tomb.

Finally Qian Bin heard the news that the carriage was repaired and came running.

Looking at the carriage, he pointed at the master and apprentice, and said, "The repair period of two months was completed in twelve days. Is this something humans do?"

After hearing this, Zhou Xingwen smiled as proudly as a child...

The day after the bronze carriage was restored, Yang Xiuwen's Kyoto University admission notice arrived.

Zhou Xingwen asked Zhang Li to order a table of dishes, called Qian Bin, Liao Hongbing, and Sun Jianguo, and had a drink on the first floor of Wenbaozhai.

Yang Xiuwen and Cao Guoqing served as waiters, but they all drank too much.

During this period, Sun Jianguo talked about the jade master's evaluation of Yang Xiuwen, and Zhou Xingwen took out the masterpiece to show off.

As a result, Yang Xiuwen had another task, carving handles for Liao Hongbing and Sun Jianguo...

It's mid-July now, and I'm leaving for Zhongjing in just over a month.

He must seize the time to make another batch of calligraphy and paintings, and carve a batch of pendants and handles, lest Cao Guoqing has nothing to sell.

I also have to buy some antiques and toys, so I am very busy.

Cao Guoqing went to the jade market to purchase dozens of Hotan jade, sapphire, and yellow jade, and personally selected two or three melon-sized pieces of jade.

Tomorrow is the birthday of the master's wife, and Yang Xiuwen left early.

I need to take care of myself, my hair is getting long.

It's the same barber shop as before, and there are a lot of people getting haircuts.

When the boss saw it was him, he happily welcomed him in and said, "Brother, thanks to you, after I introduced your hairstyle, I was very satisfied with it as long as I had it cut. You see, now I am waiting for it to be done."

Woolen cloth."

He turned to the waiting people and said, "This [Mao Cun] was invented by this brother. I'll give it to him first, and then you can see the effect."
