At the end of the Ming Dynasty, after the death of Chongzhen, the world was in chaos. At this time, rich people would choose to bury gold, silver and copper coins in the ground because it was safe. To this day, it is conservatively said that more than 60 tons of ancient coins are unearthed every year across the country, of which 100%
Thirty percent are packed in wooden boxes and porcelain jars, and 70% are in bulk in brick cellars. I predict that in the next fifty years, this number will only increase, not decrease.
If the descendants of the Fang family discover the mystery in the attic wall, then they will definitely erase these calligraphy words. Now, since these words are still there, it means that the descendants of the Fang family did not discover it. As for why Fang Weixun did not
Taking the initiative to tell his descendants these clues, it took so long that no one knew what was going on.
Towers facing each other, tip to tip.
Pagoda refers to Fude Pagoda, and Ta Ta refers to Ta Ta Mountain.
Yes, these three words left by Fang Weixun are a bit thought-provoking.
If you take it literally, you will get into a misunderstanding, and you may think that the treasure is hidden in the spire of Fude Tower.
I have read the Guangxu edition and the 1990 edition of Chun'an County Chronicles, and I was deeply impressed by the famous local ancient buildings.
Before 1959, this area was flat land and there was no water. The Fude Pagoda stood just behind Tata Mountain, standing there like a flagpole.
This is how I understand it.
When the sun rises, the sunlight from the front is blocked by Tata Mountain. At this time, the ancient pagoda at the back will be shrouded in the shadow area of the hill.
At this time, people walked to the front of the ancient pagoda and observed. At this time, the place where the shadow of the tower tip overlaps with the shadow of the hill should point to the place where Fang Weixun buried the treasure.
In other words, the silver is not in the ancient pagoda, but on the hill. The ancient pagoda is just a charm bomb.
After returning home, I called Li Xiangling, and I hurriedly told him, "We have made a major discovery!"
"Oh? Brother, tell me quickly!"
I took a deep breath, "After my analysis, the silver may be hidden between the fourth and fifth floors of the tower."
"Then what are you waiting for! Let's do it quickly! Break it open!"
I shook my head, "The middle of the floor is filled with solid bricks.
It has to be pried out piece by piece. We are currently short of crowbars and demolition tools, so you have to have people prepare these."
Li Xiangling said anxiously, "This is easy to handle! Just tell me when to do it!"
"Just one o'clock the day after tomorrow! Let's prepare for the day tomorrow!"
I whispered again, "Brother Li, please be tighter on this matter. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Don't worry, brother! I understand everything! Then I'll get ready!"
After Li Xiangling left in a hurry, I immediately locked the door, turned around and said, "Brother Yu, go find the boat! I'll prepare the tools! Let's go to Tashan Mountain at noon!"
Brother Yu is also a veteran, and he immediately understood the trick.
Brother Yu frowned and said, "Yunfeng, these people are not fools. What if they turn around and find out?"
I said, "Brother Yu, I told you before that Ningbo people can only use it and not cooperate. By the time they come to their senses, we will have transferred the money long ago! As long as the two of us fight to death and refuse to admit it, what can they do?"
Brother Yu nodded, "I understand this, but what if they jump over the wall in a hurry?"
"No, they don't dare! After I get the money, I plan to share it with Tian Sanjiu. This will mean that he is directly involved. If Li Xiangling's Zhenhai Gang still wants to continue to develop, then he will never dare to provoke Tian Sanjiu.
Power, this is called a mute eating Coptis chinensis, unable to tell the story of his suffering!"
Brother Yu was stunned and said, "Yunfeng, you actually planned to do this from the beginning, right? If Tian Sanjiu knew that you were using him like this, wouldn't he be angry?"
I laughed and said, "Why are you angry, Brother Yu? Have you ever seen someone angry after giving money to everyone? Brother Tian is short of money now! He will have to thank me then! If you don't believe me, we'll see!"
This matter must be resolved quickly, and must not be delayed until the other party reacts. At the same time, I am also betting on whether my own judgment is correct.
Soon Brother Yu and I found a small boat and secretly headed to the waters.
It was sunny and windy at noon. At the end of September, the masson pine trees were covered with pine cones. I didn’t notice them at night. When I got here during the day, I saw many little black squirrels on the trees. The little squirrels were happily gnawing on the pine nuts. They also watched
When Brother Yu and I arrived, they were not interested in me.
Brother Yu was paying attention to the lake. I put on big sunglasses and looked up at the sun above my head the whole time.
Feeling that the time was approaching, I jumped directly into the lake and swam towards the ancient pagoda.
I swam underwater to the top of the ancient tower in one breath, and then quickly surfaced from here.
After I surfaced, I wiped my face.
At this time, I looked up and saw that the sun had just reached the top. I closed one eye and aimed with my thumb, pointed in a direction and shouted, "Brother Yu! That's right there!"
Brother Yu quickly ran to the spot I pointed out, and he thrust the shovel in hard.
After I found my spot, I quickly swam over, picked up the shovel, and dug hard with Brother Yu.
The sun was blazing in the sky at noon, and soon we were sweating profusely. I simply took off my shirt and tied it to my head, urging Brother Yu to speed up.
Perhaps the noise was too loud, and all the squirrels on the tree were frightened away. The back of my head hurt, as if a stupid squirrel had thrown a pine nut and hit me.
About two meters deep, we dug out a large smooth stone slab, which weighed several hundred kilograms according to visual inspection.
The big stone slab was covered tightly and was cushioned by a stone. Brother Yu and I used shovels as crowbars to move the big stone slab away little by little.
After moving away and taking a look, Brother Yu and I both had wild eyes.
Under the stone slab is a rectangular space about 2.5 meters long and 1.5 meters wide. There are three wooden boxes painted with black paint, neatly placed inside.
Each box had a pure copper cross-bolt lock from the past. I jumped down, smashed the lock, and opened the box.
The first thing I saw was butter
The paper was a thick layer, tied with iron wire, and basically in a weathered state. I peeled away the rotten oil paper, and the next second, a bright silver color was revealed.
My breathing was rapid, and the sweat on my face was like water because of the nervousness.
The box is full of silver collars that are larger than an adult's hand! The color is of the finest snow-white color, and the bottom of the silver collars is in a natural honeycomb shape. Each one weighs almost fifty taels.
I have seen many valuable cultural relics in tombs, but this is the first time I have seen such a large number of silver ingots packed together in a box! These silver ingots should have belonged to the descendants of the old Fang family.
But now it belongs to me!
There is also a line of small writing written on the box.
"If the descendants fail, they will be broken down and sold."
This was probably written by Fang Weixun. In ancient times, "split" had the meaning of pocket money. This sentence may be his reminder to future generations who found the money to "save it and take it out one by one to spend, otherwise no matter how much wealth you have, it won't be enough."
You unworthy descendants will be defeated."
Not daring to take a closer look, I quickly closed the box and tied it with a rope, and then tried to move it out as a whole. However, I tried my best to move it out, but the box still didn't move at all.
"Yunfeng, come up! I'm coming!"
I went up and Brother Yu jumped into the pit.
I saw Brother Yu spitting into the palm of his hand, grabbing the two corners of the box with his hands like pliers, and exerting force, the big box suddenly lifted off the ground.
Brother Yu raised his chest and tightened his abdomen. He clenched his teeth and the veins on his arms popped out. He relied on his upper body strength to lift the big box up little by little.
"Hurry up and pick up Yunfeng! I can't hold on anymore!"
"It's higher! Brother Yu, it's higher!"
I grabbed the rope tied to the box tightly and pulled it up hard.
Just when I was almost out of strength, suddenly a hand next to me grabbed the rope, and together with me, we pulled the big box out of the pit.
I was sweating and gasping for air and said, "Thank you."
As soon as I finished speaking, my heart suddenly skipped a beat!
