Later, after investigation, it was found that the cultural relics appearing in the Guangzhou auction were indeed the cultural relics of the Sichuan Provincial Library, which made people puzzled. Why should the cultural relics displayed in the library appear in the auction in Guangzhou thousands of miles away? Each cultural relic that enters the collection series will have its own number and will be kept in a heavily guarded safe. It is impossible to take it out without following the normal process. Now, the Sichuan Provincial Library has issued a statement saying that an exclusive investigation team has been set up to conduct further investigation and find out the specific reasons for the loss of cultural relics.
For most people, ancient cultural relics are just things that exist in books, so the attitude towards cultural relics is cautious and awe-inspiring. But for some criminals, cultural relics are just a way for them to collect money. As long as you can make a profit, you can openly violate national laws and regulations, ignore state regulations, take risks and engage in illegal activities. Therefore, whether the loss of cultural relics in Sichuan library is the dereliction of duty of the staff or what causes it deserves our continuous attention.
The value of cultural relics is not only reflected in how much it costs, but also in its cultural value and its historical significance. Therefore, selling cultural relics at will for personal interests has touched the legal bottom line of the country and will eventually accept legal sanctions.
