"The soil in the Qilu Region generally consists of brown soil, fluvo-aquic soil, black sandy soil with ginger, saline soil, something you should have studied in university," Lin Chuan said.
Qin Sisi nodded earnestly.
Lin Chuan continued, "I won't mention the smaller tombs, let's mainly talk about the great tombs."
"Okay."
Qin Sisi borrowed some paper and a pen from a waiter and prepared to take notes.
Lin Chuan took a sip of tea and explained:
"The great tombs in the Qilu Region often exist in the form of underground palaces, and many of them were for dukes and high-rank officials. They are of high standards, imitation of the netherworld, and isolated from the ground surface. Hence, they often use wax to seal the tombs and conceal strong acidic liquids within the wax layer to prevent tomb robbers from desecrating the site.
Here we need to consider two scenarios."
"Which two scenarios?"
Qin Sisi stopped writing and asked.
"One is when the wax layer is damaged, the other when the wax layer is intact," said Lin Chuan, "Let's first discuss what happens after the wax layer is damaged: when the wax layer is broken, the strong acid leaks out and reacts with the soil, and here it gets connected to the soil quality..."
Lin Chuan spoke as if reciting an inventory.
Qin Sisi was writing furiously, afraid to miss a single point.
On the side, Shen Qianqian looked on with a perplexed face at the two of them.
A perfectly good meal turned into a classroom lecture.
One teaching, one listening.
Unfortunately, Shen Qianqian couldn't quite understand what Lin Chuan was talking about, and even Qin Sisi understood only half of it, but she tried her best to write it all down, intending to slowly digest it later.
"That's about it for the Qilu Region," Lin Chuan said, taking another sip of tea.
His throat was starting to feel a bit fiery.
Looking at the notes that filled several pages, Qin Sisi felt a sense of fulfillment and nodded with a smile: "Thank you, Teacher Lin."
At that moment.
Shen Qianqian leaned in closer to Qin Sisi and said with a laugh, "I'll tell you, there's another way to learn Comrade Lin Chuan's archaeological techniques."
"What way?" Qin Sisi was startled.
"Read Comrade Lin Chuan's novels," Shen Qianqian chuckled, "He also has a nickname, the technical flow author, specializing in crime, and some readers have learned lock-picking and cheating techniques from his books."
Qin Sisi was taken aback again, looking at Lin Chuan in surprise.
Lin Chuan chuckled dryly, somewhat embarrassed.
Shen Qianqian whispered into Qin Sisi's ear, laughing, "That's why I caught him twice."
Qin Sisi's eyes widened, her mouth slightly open, her face showing a surprised look.
"Ahem, the dishes are going to get cold if we don't eat them now."
Lin Chuan laughed again awkwardly.
...
In the days that followed.
Lin Chuan was frequently running back and forth between the antique shop, the Network Security Company, the Cultural Relics Protection and Archaeological Research Institute, and the Han Dynasty Grand Tomb.
Finally, on July 1st.
Outside Anling City, the tomb discovered near a construction site was completely excavated and presented before the public.
After Lin Chuan's verification.
It was a grand tomb of a certain prefect from the Western Han Dynasty, an extremely important material for research into the history of Anling and even the broader Han River history.
In the archaeological circles of the Han River, it caused an immense sensation.
It also garnered a significant reaction online.

Lin Chuan picked a good day on the lunar calendar and took the opportunity to release his new book.
——"Touch Gold Notes".
"Youyou, I'm going to release a new book," Lin Chuan lay on a comfortable rocking chair in Linjiang Mansion, admiring the beautiful scenery of the Anling River, and sent a message to the editor, Youyou.
"You've prepared the new book so quickly?" Youyou was somewhat surprised.
"The release method this time is a bit different, I plan to publish it volume by volume," Lin Chuan typed rapidly on the phone screen, sending another message.
"Publishing it volume by volume is possible, but what's the theme?"
On the other end of the network, Youyou was very curious about the theme of Lin Chuan's new book.
After all, Lin Chuan's themes had never been repeated.
Lin Chuan smiled and then replied, "Tomb robbing."
Tomb robbing?
Youyou raised her eyebrows, took a deep breath, and replied, "That's a profession with both high specialization and challenge!"
"Youyou, you're implying something," Lin Chuan replied with a smile.
"Tomb robbing is a popular theme, there's no problem with traffic. However, it's a bit coincidental, as there are two other people also writing on this theme. Guess who?"
"It couldn't be Handon again, could it?" Lin Chuan was startled.
"Indeed, I heard he was originally avoiding you. Seeing you writing about antiques, he decided to take a different path and write about tomb robbing, but he ended up clashing with you again. /Haha.jpg," Youyou replied.
"What a coincidence."
Lin Chuan's mouth twitched, "And the other?"
"The other is Old Yao, apparently, he is from the National Archaeological Team. His book has already been released, named 'Antique Wind Quest', and like you, he's also publishing it volume by volume," Youyou dropped another bombshell.
"Old Yao, the big shot from the National Archaeological Team?" Lin Chuan was again startled.
"Yes, his new book was released a couple of days ago and has already joined the hundred league," Youyou reminded.
Lin Chuan's face darkened.
Quite a big shot from the Archaeological Team, starting a book in the hundred league, with direct full pull on traffic and prestige!
But still, he had to grit his teeth and go on; it wasn't as if he could just stop writing because others were doing it, right?
It's just that the traffic for the tomb robbing theme might be a little smaller.
After all, the readership for a theme is pretty much fixed.
Sailing Novel is a subscription site, and traffic is limited.
That's how it goes with online literature, big shots eat their fill, while the rest may starve. That's basically the situation.
Huh?
Lin Chuan suddenly remembered that Qin Sisi had transferred to the National Archaeological Team. It wouldn't be bad to shamelessly pull some strings and ask for a chapter recommendation, haha.
Of course, that was a joke.
There are many people in the Archaeological Team, with numerous teams.
Qin Sisi might not necessarily be in the same team as Old Yao.
Lin Chuan had had several successful book launches in a row, and with his influence, achieving the first volume's goal of one hundred thousand collections was not difficult for him.
Before long.
The first volume of "Touch Gold Notes" passed the review, signed a contract, and with a full three hundred thousand characters, was successfully published!
Soon, many new and old readers received the notification.
Qin Sisi, who had just reported to the National Archaeological Team, also received the notification for "Touch Gold Notes".
