Why does it say on the sign, "The son of Yin Cao Wuchang rules the world with the yellow crown," I don't know.
It was raining heavily outside, so I found a clean place to sit in the temple and waited for the rain to stop.
I looked at the text message. The text message I just sent to Dou Sprout Zai said that it failed to be sent. I tried again and it still didn't work. It may be a signal problem.
"What are you looking at?" Ah Chang came over and sat down.
"No, I didn't see anything." ??
"It seems like the rain won't stop for a while. Where are you two from?"
"We are both from the Northeast, how about you, beauty?"
"Me? I belong to Luan Chuan."
"Oh, then why did you come out?"
The words came to my lips and I took them back.
Ah Chang was not angry at all, she smiled and said: "How come you are selling it, right?"
"Actually, it's nothing. I dropped out of school when I was very young, and no one at home took care of me. I had a promiscuous boyfriend in my early years, and it was he who brought me into this industry."
"Didn't you say you are a college student?"
"Sister Yun asked me to apply for fake academic qualifications as a college student. She said it was to protect me. In fact, I only went to junior high school."
Brother Yu said: "Then your boyfriend is really nothing. He pushed you into a pit of fire. You must hate him."
"Um.".
Ah Chang recalled: "I did hate those years, but now I feel nothing. I have already planned for myself. When I save 200,000, I will find a rural area where no one knows me, and then I will find an honest man to marry."
Already."
Brother Yu said: "Amitabha, it's your fault, you are deceiving an honest man."
"Tch, what does that have to do with anything?"
"The year before last, a sister I met was like this. She had been a virgin for eight years. Later, she went to the hospital to have a virginity operation. After being introduced, she married an honest man who was three years older than her. Isn't she living a good life now?
?Already have two children.”
Forehead .
What she said left me speechless. I can only say that it is so miserable for an honest man.
"Which one of you two wants to be my boyfriend?"
Brother Yu and I quickly shook our heads.
"Haha! You two are not honest men. What are you afraid of? I'm just teasing you! I still look down on you, girl."
I don't know if it was an illusion, but I saw a hint of sadness in her eyes.
at this time.
Suddenly I heard, "Ah, a scream!"
The sound was sharp and startled me.
Not far away, Duck Man jumped up and down, and said loudly with a pale face: "There is a spider! Come and have a look! There is a big spider right where I was sitting!"
I ran over and asked where the spider was?
He kept beating his chest, pointed at the haystack in shock, and shouted loudly: "It's right there! I saw it! The big spider is as big as an apple! It scared me to death, I'm so scared!"
I thought to myself, there are so many weird things about ugly men. A spider as big as an apple? That must be a spider spirit.
I shined my flashlight and dug through the grass to look for a long time, but I didn't see any big spiders.
Suddenly, the girl named A Jing said: "Hey? What is this? It seems to be an ancient leather coin?"
She knelt down and reached out to pick it up.
It's really a small leather coin, which means copper coin.
"Wow! Sister Yun, am I rich! There are still words!"
I said: "Beauty, can you show it to me?"
"Okay, take a look, but this is what I picked up, and it's mine," she handed it to me.
I took it and took a look.
It is about 2.5cm in diameter, has a green patina, and has Chongzhen Tongbao written on the front. Turn the copper coin over, and you can vaguely see the image of a horse on the lower back.
I feel very strange.
Why are there such copper coins here?
Logically speaking, "temple money" should be found in a place like this. The so-called temple money is the kind of big, thick copper coin made of brass, usually without writing.
The money she picked up was a special kind of money. It might not be the money used in the industry at that time. People in our industry called it "Chongzhen Horse Racing Money", or "Horse Racing Money" for short.
Like the later Kangxi Luohan coins, they all have a certain meaning.
When Ah Jing saw me looking at it for a long time, she asked: "What's wrong, handsome guy? Do you still know how to look at antiques?" ??
I thought to myself: "Not only can I look at antiques, I understand everything, and there is nothing I don't understand."
"Then do you think it's worth it?"
I said it could be sold for about three hundred yuan. I didn't lie to her. At that time, the money for high-quality products was only this amount.
"Haha! Did you hear that, sisters! It's worth 300, and I made a small fortune." A Jing was very happy.
I studied Quanpu in the past dynasties when I was in the fifth grade of elementary school, so I knew a saying about this kind of copper coin at that time.
Chongzhen Tongbao, with a horse racing picture on its back, was cast at the end of the Ming Dynasty.
At that time, the people of the Ming Dynasty were in poverty and had no means of livelihood. Children were singing nursery rhymes: "Eat his mother, live with his mother. When King Chuang comes, he will not grab food, he will not be on duty, and he will not farm. Let's all have a good time. You come too, and I
Come too, hurry up and open the door to welcome King Chuang."
It can be seen from this ballad that many people welcomed Li Zicheng at that time.
It was against this background that horse racing was born.
You see.
Does the word "Chuang" in "Chuang King" mean "a horse is locked in the door?" A horse is made on the back of a copper coin, which means that the door of the Ming Dynasty cannot be closed anymore! The horse has already rushed out.
I asked A Jing, if you want to sell this copper coin, I can give you a high price, 300 yuan.
Ah Jing is also a clever girl. She asked me to take the copper coins back and said, "I won't sell it for now. I'll wait until I go back to find an antique store owner to ask."
Unexpectedly, Brother Yu said at this time: "Girl, this brother of mine never lies to others. If he tells you it's worth 300, then it's worth 300. In fact, I personally like this copper coin because I happen to be a horse, so I'll give it to you."
500, can you sell it to me?”
Seeing the sincerity on Brother Yu's face, Ah Jing hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Okay then, I'll sell it to you for 500."
Brother Yu was about to reach out to pick it up.
Suddenly, no one expected it.
Ah Chang ran over and knocked the copper coin out of Ah Jing's palm!
The copper coins flew out and I don't know where they fell.
"Ah Chang, you are crazy! What are you doing!"
In addition, it was raining heavily outside the temple, and there was lightning and thunder.
It happened that a bolt of lightning flashed across, suddenly making A Chang's face extremely pale!
Her lips were trembling, her whole body was shaking, and she said loudly: "You can't take it! This is night money! Whoever picks it up will die!"
Touching money at night?
I don’t understand. This is obviously a racing coin from the Ming Dynasty. It’s not very rare. It’s worth hundreds of dollars. Why can’t it be touched?
"Ah Jing! Go outside and wash your hands!"
"Sister Yun! Ah Jing doesn't know! It's because she is a foreigner!
"But we are both from Luanchuan! We both grew up in Luanchuan! Haven't you heard when you were a child that you can't pick up money at night, and you can't touch it either!!"
"Someone in my village once picked up someone who stayed overnight to touch money! Then they all died!"
