Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

In the temporary tent, the workbench was filled with unearthed cultural relics. Although they were all fragments and there was no complete vessel, the archaeological experts still found a treasure. These are important cultural relics for the study of Dongyi culture.

After another two days of excavation, more and more pottery pot fragments were unearthed, and archaeologists became more and more convinced that a Dongyi culture site was buried underneath.

Archaeological discoveries of this level naturally need to be protected as soon as possible, and the protection of cultural relics is also inseparable from local cooperation.

So Li Zhongwei, as the leader, personally came to the archaeological site to understand the situation.

"Secretary Li, these are our recent discoveries. Judging from the fragments of cultural relics unearthed so far, this should be a Dongyi cultural site from the middle to late Neolithic Age." Professor Zhang introduced.

Li Zhongwei, who studied science and engineering, knows a lot about industry, but he knows nothing about archeology. His understanding of history is limited to dynasties and a few historical celebrities, and he only gets information from film and television works. .

So Li Zhongwei asked: "Professor Zhang, can you introduce this Dongyi culture?"

Professor Zhang had no choice but to introduce: "Dongyi culture refers to the culture created by the Dongyi people and is an important source of Chinese civilization. This culture began in the Neolithic Age and ended in the middle of the Western Zhou Dynasty."

"Dongyi people? Are they Chinese?" Li Zhongwei asked subconsciously.

"Of course they are Chinese." Professor Zhang had a speechless expression.

"Are those ethnic minorities?" Li Zhongwei asked next.

Professor Zhang had no choice but to explain: "At that time, there were still more than two thousand years before the Han Dynasty. Naturally, there was no such thing as Han nationality and ethnic minorities. Dongyi actually means the east, and Dongyi people are people from the east.

The area where Dongyi lived was mainly the eastern coastal area, between the Yellow River Basin and the Yangtze River Basin, including the current provinces of Hebei, Shandong, Su, and Anhui.

So calling Dongyi at that time was equivalent to what we call East China now. Dongyi people are like talking about people living in East China, and do not involve any ethnic minorities.

When the Western Zhou Dynasty divided the countries, there were several Dongyi countries. Later, these countries were destroyed one after another in the war, and the name Dongyi gradually disappeared, replaced by the countries of the Spring and Autumn Period. "

"When you said that, I understood. It turns out that the Dongyi people are our ancestors!" Li Zhongwei nodded as if he was suddenly aware.

"He is also the ancestor of the Chinese nation." Professor Zhang continued; "The Dongyi civilization was a very brilliant civilization during the Neolithic Age, and many well-known tribes and figures appeared in it.

For example, Taihao, Shaohao, Chiyou, Shun, Houyi, etc. all came from Dongyi. In addition, the ancestors of the Shang Dynasty also moved from the Dongyi tribe. "

"The Chi You you are talking about is the Chi You who fought with Huangdi, right?" Li Zhongwei asked immediately.

Professor Zhang nodded: "It's Chi You. He was actually a tribal leader of Dongyi. He unified many surrounding tribes and was finally defeated by the Yellow Emperor."

"Is the descendant the one who shot the sun?" Li Zhongwei asked again.

"Houyi shooting the sun is just a myth. The real descendant is also a tribal leader in the Dongyi area. This tribe is called Youqiong. However, according to records, it is true that the descendant is good at shooting." Professor Zhang continued.

"So our ancestors are so powerful!" Li Zhongwei pondered for a moment and then said; "Since this Dongyi culture has so many celebrities, it should be a very important archaeological discovery, right?"

"It's more than important!" Professor Zhang continued; "We say all day long that Chinese civilization lasted for five thousand years, but many foreigners don't recognize this. They think that the history before the Shang Dynasty is all fabricated, such as the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, They are all mythical characters and do not exist in concrete terms.

Our archeology of Dongyi culture can prove that the history of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors period and the Xia Dynasty existed. This is equivalent to completing an extremely important link for our entire Chinese civilization system! It is of extraordinary significance to our entire country and even the entire Chinese nation. "

"That's it." Li Zhongwei nodded noncommittally, but he didn't seem very excited emotionally.

Professor Zhang also saw that Li Zhongwei was a layman, and talking about history and culture with him was simply playing the piano to others, and it was probably ineffective.

Then Professor Zhang said: "According to our judgment, there is a Dongyi culture site buried here. If archaeological excavation is carried out, there will definitely be many precious cultural relics in the world. By then, a museum may not be able to contain them. Maybe we need to build a comprehensive Dongyi cultural scenic spot.”

"Scenic spot?" Li Zhongwei's eyes suddenly lit up. Compared with the historical and cultural significance, the scenic spot obviously attracted Li Zhongwei's attention more.

Professor Zhang said unhurriedly; "Based on the words Dongyi Cultural Relics, there should be no problem in applying for a 3a level scenic spot with the country. If the ruins are well preserved, the unearthed cultural relics will be more valuable for research." If so, it is not impossible to apply for a 4a-level scenic spot.”

Li Zhongwei couldn't help but feel a little moved when he heard "4a scenic spot".

In 2000, the highest level of scenic spots in China was still 4a. 5a scenic spots were only added in 2003. That means before that, even the Forbidden City, the Great Wall, and the Terracotta Warriors and Horses were only 4a scenic spots.

Before the emergence of 5a scenic spot standards, 4a scenic spots were already awesome!

What local people are concerned about is economic development.

A 4a-level scenic spot is enough to support a city's tourism industry, and the catering, accommodation, shopping and other service industries it drives can not only solve a large number of employment problems, but also bring a large amount of income to the local area and promote economic growth.

Although Li Zhongwei has an engineering background and usually pays great attention to industrial development, it does not mean that he only focuses on industry. As long as other industries are legal and compliant and can promote economic development, Li Zhongwei will naturally not reject them.

What's more, this is a 4a scenic spot! Even in the big cities in China, it is difficult to resist the temptation of 4a scenic spots!

Li Zhongwei asked, "Professor Zhang, how should we protect this historical heritage of Dongyi culture?"

"I saw construction going on around here. I think this construction should be stopped immediately to avoid damaging the cultural relics buried underground. Moreover, if buildings are built on the ground, it will not be conducive to our subsequent archaeological work. "Coach Zhang said.

"That's what I came here for today." Li Zhongwei replied immediately.

In fact, before Li Zhongwei arrived, he had already received a call from his superiors, asking him to cooperate with the work of archaeological experts and seal off the land as soon as possible to protect cultural relics.

Li Zhongwei was somewhat resistant to this instruction. He knew that the Heavy Machinery Factory was building a new factory on this land. If the land was blocked, the construction of the new factory would be hindered. If the factory could not be built, employment and tax revenue would be affected. etc. will all be affected.

However, after listening to Professor Zhang's introduction, Li Zhongwei had changed his mind.

Building a 4a scenic spot and developing tourism is also a very good thing. It can also drive employment and increase tax revenue.

The investment in tourism is small, it consumes low energy, it sounds good, and it has face when it comes to public speaking. Especially such monuments with historical and cultural origins can be used as a city business card, which will greatly promote the city's popularity.

Many of China's famous cultural cities with long histories are not weak in industry, and there are even many manufacturing companies that have taken root there. However, when people mention this city, the first thing they think of is not the manufacturing industry leader there, but the scenic spots and historic sites.

The growth of GDP is certainly the main factor in assessing local political performance, but to be famous, it depends on such historical, scenic and cultural things.

In other words, if this kind of historical and cultural monument is developed, it will be a good thing for both fame and fortune.

Just listen to Li Zhongwei's introduction: "In Baidun'er, we have planned a total of 300 acres of land, of which 200 acres of land use rights have been given to a heavy machinery factory for the construction of a new factory. This project is currently under construction. .

If the construction is stopped, it will inevitably affect the construction of the heavy machinery factory, so I came here this time to see if there is a compromise method that can protect cultural relics without affecting the normal construction of the heavy machinery factory. . "

Li Zongwei not only wanted a 4a-level scenic spot, but also wanted the construction of heavy machinery factories to continue, so he wanted to find a way to get the best of both worlds.

Professor Zhang asked: "Secretary Li, can you let me take a look at the planning map?"

"Bring the plan here immediately." Li Zhongwei ordered, and someone immediately brought the plan.

As an archaeological expert, reading maps is a special skill. Professor Zhang found his location on the planning map at a glance.

"We are currently at this location, which means that under the area we are located, it is the burial place of Dongyi cultural ruins. But we are currently unable to determine the scope of this Dongyi cultural ruins, which means that we do not know where archaeological excavation is required. How big is the area?”

Professor Zhang paused and then continued: "There are some scientific methods to determine the archaeological area, but the situation here is quite special. The Baidun'er area has always had human activities for the past thousands of years. For The ruins must have been damaged.

Moreover, there are insufficient historical records about Dongyi culture. We cannot determine the area through historical records, coupled with geological changes over thousands of years. Therefore, it is difficult for us to determine the area of ​​archaeological excavation through scientific methods. Judgment can only be made during the excavation process.

"What should we do? We can't seal up all the planned 300 acres of industrial land!" Li Zhongwei asked.

"That's not necessary." Professor Zhang continued: "Dongyi culture was mainly based on tribes. The population in the Neolithic Age was not as large as it is now. Some small tribes only had a hundred or ten people, and some larger tribes only had more than a thousand people. The area occupied by people will definitely not be very large.

So I think that taking the place where we are now as the center and extending 150 meters outward to draw a circle for archaeological excavation, if it is a small tribal site, the edge should be within this range. "

"Bring the calculator." Li Zhongwei ordered, and the attendant next to him immediately handed over a small portable calculator.

"The area of ​​a circle with a radius of 150 meters is Pi r squared, which is 70,650 square meters, equivalent to 106 acres!" Li Zhongwei quickly calculated the result.

Li Zhongwei pondered for a moment and felt that temporarily sealing 106 acres of land was not a big problem. The heavy machinery factory could build the remaining 100 acres of factory area first. After the archaeological team confirms the scope of the site, construction of the remaining factory area will be carried out.

As for the land occupied by the ruins, we will just need to find a heavy machinery factory nearby to supply it. Anyway, the entire Baidun'er has planned 300 acres of land, and there is still a lot of free space.

In the heavy machinery factory, Wu Jiandao came to Zhang Tao's office with a sad face to report the situation.

"What are you talking about? More than a hundred acres of land have been sealed off? No construction is allowed?" Zhang Tao's eyes widened and he asked:

"Isn't he just a Jinshi during the Kangxi period? No matter how big a Jinshi's tomb is, where can it reach? It can hold up an acre of land! With more than 100 acres of land, doesn't it mean that he has become the emperor?"

"At first, we dug up a Jinshi from the Kangxi period, but later archaeologists discovered that the tomb of the Jinshi was low, and there was also a Dongyi cultural site, which is said to be of great archaeological value." Infernal Affairs said.

"Dongyi culture? What is that? How old is it?" Zhang Tao then asked.

"It is said to be related to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. I'm afraid it must have been five thousand years ago!" Infernal Affairs replied.

"Five thousand years? Our Chinese history is only five thousand years, isn't it? Are these archaeologists just fooling around?" Zhang Tao snorted coldly.

"Director, our five thousand years of Chinese history didn't originate from the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors." Infernal Affairs reminded him in a low voice.

"A person who had been a Jinshi of the Qing Dynasty for two or three hundred years has now been given over to me for five thousand years!" Zhang Tao was so angry that he wanted to smash something.

However, he had nothing to do about this kind of thing. The "Cultural Relics Protection Law" was there. In order to protect cultural relics, not to mention a hundred acres of industrial land, more than a thousand hectares in Sanxingdui were sealed off at will.

Wu Jiandao then introduced: "Director, don't worry, I have asked the staff of the Cultural Relics Bureau, and they said that the more than 100 acres of land currently sealed are only temporary, and they will wait until they determine the scope of the site. , the lockdown will be lifted immediately, and we can continue construction.”

"How big should this range be? If there is fifty or sixty acres of land, wouldn't it affect the planning of our new factory?" Zhang Tao said immediately.

"I heard from experts that Dongyi culture consists of tribes. A tribe has a hundred or ten people, so that means there are at most twenty households. How much space can twenty households stand in? It is estimated to be just a few acres of land. Right! And the city has also said that these acres of land will be compensated to us later." Wu Jiandao replied.

"If it's just a few acres of land, it doesn't matter. If we build less warehouses, the space will be freed up and it won't affect the overall situation!" Zhang Tao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fukang Engineering Company, Ding Youliang is smiling happily at this time.

"I thought that when I visited Baidun'er, I took a piece of land to make a wedding dress for Zhang Tao, but I didn't expect that there was an ancestor buried under the piece of land! I heard that a Dongyi cultural site dating back 5,000 years was excavated. , the new factory area of ​​​​the Heavy Machinery Factory, more than 100 acres of land were sealed at once!" Ding Youliang shortened happily.

Li Weidong next to him nodded: "Yes, Heavy Machinery took a total of 200 acres of land this time, and now half of it has been sealed. But it's a big deal. At least the construction of their new factory will be delayed for more than half a year."

"What a pity. I heard that the ruins were only a few acres in size. I went back to determine the scope of the ruins, and the remaining land had to be returned to the heavy machinery factory. It would be great if the more than 100 acres of underground land were all ruins. !" Ding Youliang sighed.

"Maybe the entire Baidun'er area is filled with relics of Dongyi culture!" Li Weidong smiled, and then looked at the map of Qinghe City on the wall.

In Li Weidong's memory, the future Dongyi Cultural Scenic Area in Qinghe City will cover an area of ​​500 acres!

No pop-ups, timely updates!
