Chapter 142: Chalk Cicada Amber, Significant Research Value (1/2)
In the afternoon, Ning Fei was teasing Little Dog and Little Fei at Qingfeng Guan when the village headman knocked on the door outside and shouted.
Ning Fei, the people from the Geological Bureau are coming.
After Ning Fei opened the door, he saw that there were four people outside, the village headman Qin was next to the most, and on the other side was an assistant general figure.
The two people in the middle, one of whom Ning Fei knew, he was Zhu Mu, a civil servant of the Geological Bureau. When the stalactite cave was discovered last time, Zhu Mu came and gave him a cash prize of 50,000 yuan and a certificate.
The other person is an old man, looking at the body is a little hunched, but Ning Fei saw something different in his eyes.
Xiang is born from the heart. At a certain age, one can see something through the face.
The face here refers to the natural state of the face, not when performing or emotional.
For example, there are people with very soulful eyes, a look at the more intelligent; there are people with fierce eyebrows, look not very good; there are women who look rich and noble, obviously a wealthy family with heritage.
The old mans eyes were not so mundane and utilitarian, just the kind of eyes that were calm and would not deliberately change when he met people.
Zhu Mu who saw Ning Fei on the side laughed immediately, with polite eyes in his eyes he said: Hello, Mr. Ning, let me introduce to you. This is a professor and geologist from the Kyoto Municipal Bureau of Geology, senior Xu Qiu.
Hello. Ning Fei greeted Xu Qiu in a kind manner.
Xu Qiu looked at Ning Fei, and at first glance, he felt that this young man was very nice and gave a very comfortable feeling.
Hello. Xu Qiu also responded politely.
Im still on air, do you guys mind? Ning Fei asked again.
No problem, its not a secret thing. Zhu Mu immediately replied.
Okay, please there.
A few people walked into the Qingfeng View, Jiang Xue saw that someone had come, and also prepared a pot of tea, came to the living room, and poured tea for several people.
The netizens were watching this scene the whole time, this kind of thing where civil servants come to the door is relatively rare.
After sitting down, Zhu Mu opened his mouth and said.
Master Ning Guan, it is like this? According to the new Chinese Cultural Relics Protection Law and Chinese Ancient Fossil Protection Law, for the ancient relics and ancient fossils found by the people, there will be a relevant rating thus giving different rewards.
Of course. There will be a certain discrepancy between our reward and the market auction price.
Professor Xu is here specifically to grade that chalk cicada amber.
And on behalf of the Geological Bureau, thank you solemnly for contacting us.
Zhu Mus attitude was sincere, and Ning Fei just nodded and said, Well, good.
After saying that Ning Fei then took out the Chalk Cicada Amber and handed it out.
Only to see Ning Feis hand holding a golden transparent amber with a lifelike white cicada wrapped in the middle, immediately attracted everyones attention.
Xu Qius attention was first attracted to the amber in Ning Feis hand.
His hands were trembling a bit when he took the amber from Ning Feis hand.
Do you look at the scientists eyes? It was bleak just now. I thought it was fake. Now the eyes are so serious.
That person is Xu Qiu? Xu Qiu is an authoritative professor of geology, and many of his discoveries have been written into geology textbooks!
This old man is so powerful.
Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, what do you think!
I remember, he has a very authoritative paper. It was on the discovery of residual traces of meteorites from Jurassic-era fossils, arguing that meteorites were the cause of dinosaur extinction!
Is that his early paper? Xu Qius later papers are very good!
You mean, this old man is a very authoritative scientist?
Thats right!
Qingfeng Guan is also powerful ah.
Many barrages were discussing this matter.
Didnt everyone think so? It was originally the Geological Bureau that handled Ning Feis picking up the chalk cicada amber? Some scientists actually came here specifically.
In fact Xu Qiu did not need to personally come over, waiting in the Qincheng Geological Bureau. But knowing that a piece of such an important amber is out there, he really cant wait, so the first time he pulled Zhu Mu took the initiative to come over.
Xu Qiu carefully took the amber in his hand, then took out a small barrel-shaped magnifying glass and carefully observed it.
Everyone else watched him quietly.
The small animals in the view were not disturbed by these guests, the little dog and the little fly were playing in the backyard, the little fox was lying on the promenade sunbathing, and the little falcon flew off to who knows where.
Its a chalk cicada from the early Cretaceous period, its actually so well preserved!
Xu Qiu confirmed and could not help but exclaim.
Now that there is no professional equipment on hand, Xu Qiu can only judge the approximate age of this piece of amber through the chalk cicada.
The more he looked at it, the more excited he became.
Now Chinas geological research, understanding of the Cretaceous era, it almost blank.
It is undeniable that in the field of geological research, China is far behind some of the top powers in the world.
Especially the research on prehistoric creatures is scarce. Scientists in China can only accumulate knowledge about prehistoric organisms by studying articles published by foreign scientific research institutions.
And now, this piece of chalk cicada amber that Ning Fei picked up is undoubtedly a big help to Chinas research in the field of geology!
Even if the research results, the field of geology in China may even shake the entire geological world!
This piece is really priceless for geological science research.
This piece of amber is too precious, comrade, I can ask, where did you find this piece of amber? Xu Qiu was extremely excited, his eyes brightened a bit.
I now suspect that that place is very likely the place where the earliest moths were born and evolved in the Cretaceous!
Hearing Xu Qius conclusion, Ning Fei couldnt help but give a slight sideways glance.
This old man is awesome!
Ning Fei has always respected such scientists who dedicate their lives to science, so he took out a map to check the latitude and longitude, wrote down the latitude and longitude of that mountain on a piece of paper, and handed it to Xu Qiu.
