The cultural relics are treated as old
There were many ways to make relics old. There was a cruel method to make jade artifacts. It was to force jade artifacts into the body of a live sheep. Three years later, the sheep would be killed and the jade artifacts would be sold at a high price as old goods. For old porcelain, the first thing to do was to remove the "thieving light" on the surface of the new porcelain. It could be done by brushing a layer of corrosive acid on the porcelain. This process was called "biting". In addition to removing the "thieving light," the acid could also cause small cracks on the surface of the porcelain that were similar to natural cracks. After that, put the "bitten" porcelain into the pot to boil. In the pot, add tea leaves, salt, soda, ink, dye, potassium Permanganate and other condiments.(The type, amount, and length of cooking depended on the texture and age of the porcelain.) The process of letting the color of the condiments seep into the cracks was called "feeding". Some porcelain needed to be "fed" many times to achieve the desired effect. After these processes, the small pieces on the surface of the porcelain would have a permanent color, and the white parts would also turn yellow. There were also some porcelain that were not cooked after being "bitten". Instead, they were buried in the soil or used soil mixed with lead powder, bronze rust powder, rust powder, and other condiments to paste the porcelain inside and outside. After being buried or pasted for a long time, these condiments in the soil would seep into the small cracks on the surface of the porcelain. In terms of making old bronze or bronze mirrors, the forgers would modify the old bronze mirrors, such as cutting the broken or damaged patterns on the edge and outer area of the bronze mirror along the damaged parts, then polishing and making them old. They would also dig a hole in the new bronze mirror and embed the old bronze mirror to make them old. The purpose of antiques was mostly to make fake ones for profit. The antique market was mixed with real and fake antiques, so they needed to be careful when collecting them. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Old Farmer Selling Cultural Relics
There was too little information about the expression "old farmer selling cultural relics" to give an accurate answer. If an old farmer privately sold cultural relics that were prohibited by the state for profit, for example, in some cases, someone found that the cultural relics were hidden and sold (such as Zhang digging up an ancient tombstone and reselling it with others), this behavior may violate the crime of reselling cultural relics. If it was a cultural relic from a legal source, it was legal to sell it through legal channels (such as formal and qualified cultural relic stores, auction institutions, etc.), but it still had to follow relevant laws and regulations and transaction procedures. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
700,000-year-old cultural relics unearthed
In Japan, there was a 700,000-year-old cultural relic unearthed. Fujimura Shinichi participated in the excavation work of the Kamikaomori site. After mining in August 1992, he claimed that a series of paleolith artifacts had been discovered, including the 700,000-year-old paleolith unearthed in 1999. These discoveries made him known as the "God of Stone Tools" in Japan, and relevant information was written into Japanese high school history textbooks after 1998. However, in November 2000, the media exposed Shinichi Fujimura's fraud. He took out " Paleolith relics " from plastic bags and buried them in the Kamikaomori archaeological site. Later, he admitted that he had forged evidence in at least 42 excavation sites. The Kamikaomori site was also removed from the list of historical sites by the Japanese Historical Society. This incident made many Japanese feel ashamed. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Old houses are considered cultural relics
The old house might be recognized as a cultural relic. If the old house had a certain historical value, cultural value, scientific value, etc., it had the possibility of becoming a cultural relic. For example, some old houses with a specific historical architectural style or related to important historical events or people. For example, if an old house from the Republic of China period had a unique architectural structure (such as all-wood structure, brick, flower window, floor tile, etc.), it could try to apply for cultural relic protection. The applicants must have the qualifications to declare. The property rights of the house must belong to the applicants and be legal. After receiving the relevant materials, the business department will conduct a field survey. If there is value, it will be discussed, demonstrated, reviewed by experts, and then approved by the Cultural Relics Management Committee. Only after reporting to the government for publication can the application be successful. However, not all old houses were cultural relics. For example, although ordinary old houses had a long lifespan, they might not have any special value, so they were not considered cultural relics. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Protect cultural relics, protect cultural relics
Cultural relics protection referred to taking a series of measures to prevent damage to historical relics with historical value, cultural value, and scientific value. Cultural relics were divided into movable cultural relics (such as important objects, works of art, documents, manuscripts, books, materials, representative objects, etc.) and immovable cultural relics (such as ancient cultural heritage, ancient tombs, ancient buildings, cave temples, stone carvings, murals, important historical sites and representative buildings in modern times). When repairing, maintaining, and moving immovable cultural relics, the principle of not changing the original state of the cultural relics and the principle of minimum intervention must be adhered to in order to preserve the historical information and historical value of the cultural relics to the greatest extent. With the approval of the people's government of the province, autonomous region or municipal directly under the Central Government, a certain area for construction control may be set aside around the site to be protected for its cultural relics. The State Administration of Cultural Relics was in charge of the national cultural relics protection work, the provincial cultural relics bureau was in charge of the provincial cultural relics protection work, and the cultural relics administrative departments of the people's governments of various states, cities, counties (cities) were in charge of the local cultural relics protection work. From a social perspective, cultural relics protection leading groups were established in towns and villages to be responsible for the protection of cultural relics and the organization and management of cultural relics protectors. Cultural relics protection groups were established in villages to be responsible for the protection of cultural relics within the village. Cultural relics protection groups established by government agencies, factories, troops, schools, etc. generally focused on the protection of certain cultural relics. There were also mass amateur organizations such as cultural relic lovers 'associations established in places. In actual work, for example, Binzhou City strengthened the safety measures of cultural relics, including jointly issuing documents with multiple departments to compact responsibilities, coordinating the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security to add patrol and care public welfare posts, carrying out safety inspections and cracking down on special actions to prevent cultural relics crimes, etc. Some places also actively explored new ways to protect and utilize cultural relics, such as digging deep into the historical meaning of ancient buildings, holding cultural activities and exhibition, etc. Cultural relics could also be protected by strengthening the supervision of cultural relics protection, the protection and inheritance of cultural heritage, and the interpretation of the value of cultural relics. In addition, strengthening the publicity of law enforcement and enhancing the awareness of the people's cultural relics protection would also help the development of cultural relics protection work. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Old man picking up cultural relics
There were many cases of old men picking up cultural relics: - In 1964, in Pinglu County, Shanxi Province, when Old Man Yang went up the mountain to cut firewood, he accidentally discovered a cave. There was a rotten wooden box in the cave, and many gold beads and bricks flowed out of the broken place. - In 1986, Uncle Li, a forest ranger in Gansu Province, accidentally picked up a worn-out piece of paper in the mountain forest. It was later proved to be a precious map of the Western Han Dynasty. - However, there were also cases where the old man's bad behavior was hidden behind the collection of cultural relics. For example, the garbage collector who was caught was actually a senior grave robber. His rental room was filled with hundreds of cultural relics, including bronze mirrors from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, porcelain plates and bowls from the Ming Dynasty, and ancient coins from different dynasties. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>

A Day in the Life of an Old Cultural Relics Worker
Take the workers who repaired cultural relics in the Forbidden City as an example. They went to work at eight in the morning and got off work at five. The main job was to repair cultural relics, which required superb skills and professional knowledge. Day after day, they were engaged in similar work. For example, the calligraphy and painting restorers would repair ancient paintings, and the wood restorers would deal with Buddha statues and wooden carvings. They dealt with paste, ink, lime, etc. every day. The female restorers in the textile team could not put on makeup, spray perfume, or do nails to prevent damage to the fragile cultural relics. Wang Xinyi, a cultural preservation worker at the Hanguangmen Museum of the Tang Dynasty's Imperial City Wall in Xi'an, recorded the temperature and humidity of the ruins twice a day. After recording, he brought the data back to the office to sort out and analyze it. He cooperated with the electronic data in the museum and paid close attention to the subtle changes in the ruins in the museum. Once there were changes, he would take corresponding protective measures immediately. Generally speaking, the days of old cultural relics workers were often regular. They could endure loneliness in their respective positions, and they were persistent in their work content. They protected cultural relics by repeating seemingly boring work. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
