"Of course! You don't have to tell me if it's inconvenient for you. I'm just asking out of curiosity."
I replied: "Yes, the gold necklace with barrel beads on the table came from that tomb. It took us a long time to find it."
"Oh...then there's nothing else?"
"For example, gold nuggets or something?" he asked again.
Nuggets of gold...
I smiled and shook my head no, but actually my heart was pounding!
That's right....
Chen Pingding probably knew Niao Chongwen. The reason why he paid more money was to ensure that he got this batch of goods. The secret was on these bamboo slips!
The gold nuggets he just mentioned may be "Ying Yuan"!
This is the earliest pure gold currency in ancient times. "Ying" refers to the capital of Chu State! "Love" refers to currency! This kind of gold nugget was only popular among the aristocratic class of Chu State at that time and is a national first-class cultural relic!
During the Warring States Period, round coins with square holes had not yet appeared. The main currencies in circulation were knife coins, cloth coins, round coins, copper shell coins, Ying Yuan gold nuggets, and a kind of pottery coin with a dragon pattern printed on it.
.”
If your impression is correct, "Ying Yuan" is mostly made of broken pieces, also called gold plates! The complete one weighs about one kilogram, contains more than 90% gold, and looks like a turtle shell!
When ancient people used it, they would cut a whole piece of Ying Yuan into irregular small pieces, some into single pieces, some into two or three pieces. This thing is very rare! I just
I've heard people say it, but I've never seen it with my own eyes.
I secretly murmured in my heart, "Did it say on the bamboo slips that Ying Yuan was buried with him in that tomb?" We didn't see it at the time.
I recalled some details from the beginning. The tomb in Mangshan contained three coffins. Baotou said it was called "Triple Thin Coffin Burial". At that time, Baotou also said that this burial method originated from the Chu region. It just so happened that something like Ying Yuan might appear in the Chu region!
The family of three in that tomb may have moved to Luoyang to escape the war!
I put out the cigarette butt and stood up with a smile: "Brother Chen, I just forgot one of the things we talked about before. Everything else can be sold, but this residence cannot be sold. Look, can I refund tens of thousands of yuan?"
"What?!"
Chen Pingding's expression changed immediately, and he said loudly with a dark face: "We are talking about the package price of this pile of things! It doesn't matter if you take out the bamboo slips alone! Can this business still be done?"
Seeing his sudden excitement, I became even more sure that there was something fishy involved. If I just sold it like this, I might have picked up the sesame seeds and lost the watermelon!
I put the bag of money back and said with a smile: "Brother Chen, you can't buy or sell by force. Otherwise, I will take the things back first and ask our boss's opinion, and then we can talk."
After saying that, I started to collect the cultural relics on the table. Chen Pingding was staring at me. He looked at his subordinates, his eyes gradually getting colder.
"do not move!"
"Don't move!"
"I won't fucking sell it! Who dares to touch me! I'll shoot him to death!"
I held the gun in one hand and packed my things with the other hand.
Carrying the bag behind me, I stepped back step by step...
The coal train was still moving fast, and from time to time there were several loud whistles!
As soon as I climbed up, my pupils dilated instantly, and a sharp machete struck directly at my neck. It turned out that someone was ambushing me on the roof of the car!
It was too late to shoot, and my instinctive reaction between life and death made me turn sideways subconsciously!
The person ambushing on the roof of the car slashed at the edge of the car!
Then he heard a gunshot! A sharp pain came from his back. Chen Pingding shouted coldly: "Damn it! Boy, you don't obey the rules! I'm going to buy and sell by force today! I'll kill you later."
Buried in a tunnel, no one can find you!"
I gasped in pain, my forehead was covered with sweat, and I turned around violently! I threw down a small medicine in my hand!
The small medicine fell to pieces with a bang!
A stream of yellowish-brown smoke wafted out from the bottle, causing Chen Pingding and others to choke and cough.
I held my breath, threw my backpack off the train, and jumped right out!
