"Okay, this is so good!"

"Such well preserved official edition is hard to find in the world!

"I'm going to hide it from you. I've been searching for the old man who was engraved in the Qing Dynasty in the Stone Record for many years. Unfortunately, I haven't found it. It's really luck to have encountered such a rare book today!"

Zhu Lao was excited and said several words "good" and his voice couldn't help but increase his voice a little.

"With this set of ancient books, I don't want to say that I can carve a jade carving, but I can only wait for me to carve ten. I am willing to do so, and I have no complaints!"

For a rich man like Zhu, he was knowledgeable and had ordinary small objects that could not catch his eye.

Even some official kilns in the Qing Dynasty, the calligraphy and paintings of second-rate painters of the Ming and Qing dynasties may not be able to please him!

But Pei Yuqin is so meticulous that she naturally won’t give it to her!

Either don’t give it, or if you give it, it will be a gift that is irresistible!

However, the weight of this gift made Mr. Zhu not know what to do for a while!

He never expected that Pei Yuqin would send such a rare original engraved ancient book.

He promised to carve jade ornaments, one to help his niece, and the other to let Chen Yu help him see the Feng Shui of the house.

Now Pei Yuqin gave a heavy gift, which made him unable to refuse, so she was stunned for a moment.

He hesitated for a moment, as if he was making some important decision in his heart.

Then, he signaled Chen Yu and Pei Yuqin to wait for a while. Then, he immediately turned around and walked towards the desk not far away, gently opened the drawer, and carefully took out a small wooden box made of red sandalwood from it.

Zhu Lao held the wooden box in both hands and slowly walked to Chen Yu and Pei Yuqin, gently opened the wooden box, and in an instant, an ancient gold-shaped coin-shaped coin came into view.

"Supply money!" Chen Yu only glanced at it, then blurted out, instantly recognizing the origin of the ancient coin.

Subconsciously, Chen Yu took the ancient coin handed over by Mr. Zhu. He weighed it gently with his hand, felt the weight of the ancient coin in his hand, and thought silently in his heart that the weight was no different from the authentic one.

I looked at this ancient coin carefully. Its diameter is about 2.4 cm, perforated diameter is 0.5 cm, and its thickness is also consistent with the Chunhua Yuanbao Funds recorded in ancient books.

The front of the coin is cast in the running script font "Chunhua Yuanbao" with clear handwriting and skillful brushwork. There is a kind of calligraphy charm in it, which should be the first of famous masters.

Looking at the back of the coin, there are two lifelike Buddha statues cast.

On the left is Li Fo Weituo, with a tall figure, holding a good hand, and a solemn and solemn expression.

On the right is Guanyin Bodhisattva, with a kind face, surrounded by Buddha's light, and a compassionate and peaceful aura all over his body.

Both stand firmly on the lotus seat, with vivid shapes, smooth and natural shapes, which makes people impressed by the superb skills of coin craftsmen.

"This? I didn't expect to see a 'Chunhua Yuanbao' offering money here. This is really an adventure!" Chen Yu sighed secretly.

I couldn't help but sigh because I cherish this ancient currency very much. It was first dug up by a construction team in a Buddhist temple in a famous Buddhist mountain in 1988.

Although there was a big name for this coin before, no real coin was found.

No one knows how many of them are dug out.

Some say thousands of them.

There are more than two thousand.

There is no way to check how much it was dug out.

The so-called wealth is moving. When the ancient coins are gold, a worker took the gold coins and ran away!

Some of these were taken away, some went to Hong Kong Island, and some even lost to abroad, which made people regret it!

“Exquisite, so exquisite!”

Chunhua Yuanbao is the first "Imperial Book Money" in history, and the so-called Imperial Book is written by the emperor.

Emperor Taizong of Song told Prime Minister Zhao Pu that "the teachings of the Buddha family are beneficial to politics."

In order to show support for Buddhism, people were ordered to cast the "Chunhua Yuanbao" Buddha statue to offer money.

Many people are surprised that didn’t the Song Dynasty believe in Taoism?

After all, the only Taoist emperor appeared in the Song Dynasty.

In fact, Emperor Taizong of Song Zhao Guangyi believed nothing!

He neither believed in Taoism nor believed in Buddhism. As an emperor, he was the leader of Confucianism, and he adopted an eclectic attitude towards Taoism and Buddhism.

After experiencing a long-term war in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, social unrest, people's lives are in distress, and people are in panic.

At this time, Emperor Taizong of Song cleverly used the doctrines and influence of Buddhism and Taoism to calm people's hearts.

Buddhism advocates compassion and the cycle of cause and effect, which allows the people to find spiritual comfort in suffering.

Taoism advocates governing in accordance with nature and inaction, which helps alleviate the contradictions at that time.

Through support for both Buddhism and Taoism, Emperor Taizong of Song successfully stabilized the Zhao family's territory.

Although these support money was quickly protected after being unearthed, the lost ones could not be found!

It is said that some of the "Chunhua Yuanbao" gradually arrived at the antique market in Hong Kong.

Because these "Chunhua Yuanbao" have dignified and beautiful fonts and exquisite patterns, they can be regarded as the pinnacle of calligraphy and sculpture art in the Song Dynasty, and the material is pure gold, which is deeply loved by collectors!

What is even more fascinating is that the Buddha statue behind it is not exactly the same.

In other words, it is far from enough to collect one. When you encounter something you like, you often need to collect several!

So even in the 1990s, its value was as high as hundreds of thousands.

"This Chunhua Yuanbao is given to Xiao Shen and Miss Pei!" Zhu Laochao said with a smile.

Chen Yu heard this and quickly refused: "My elder, this is not allowed. I am here to bother you, senior, how could I accept such a precious gift from you?"

Mr. Zhu waved his hand and said kindly: "First of all, it is impolite to come but not to go. You have given me precious ancient books, and as an elder, it is also necessary to give you gifts.

"And, this thing is not for you to keep, but to donate it in your name."

After a moment of pause, Mr. Zhu's eyes became a little distant, and he seemed to fall into memories, "I bought this money from a foreigner by chance in the 1990s.

"I have always kept it properly and regarded it as a treasure in my heart over the years. Originally, I planned to donate it to museums in the mainland anonymously in the name of anonymous, and do my best to inherit the ancient currency culture. But now, I have decided to hand it over to you.

"Xiao Shen, donate it to the Dongjiang Museum in your name!"

Chen Yu and Pei Yuqin looked at each other, and a hint of emotion flashed in their eyes.

The two of them knew in their hearts that Mr. Zhu was clearly helping Chen Yu!

Bringing precious antiques back to the mainland and donating them to local museums is not only an extremely honorable thing, but also a great improvement in Chen Yu's social status and fame.

Zhu Lao is not just the beauty of adulthood. He is simply helping him get on the horse and giving him a trip.

As you humble and let me give in, Chen Yu was suddenly attracted by another ancient coin in the wooden box.
