While the audience was guessing, Wang Xiaoshan had already opened the lid with tools, and he still used the old method of prying it open.
This was not the first time he had pried this kind of jar open. After a while, he had pried the jar open.
After the smell dissipated for a while, Wang Xiaoshan used his flashlight to shine inside. After a quick glance, he knew what was inside. The treasure this time was quite interesting.
The three reporters quickly came over to take a look. When they saw the appearance of the treasure, their hearts finally fell to the ground. The treasure this time was not the same coin as last time.
Wang Xiaoshan poured all the treasures in the jar onto a piece of cloth so that the audience could see it more clearly.
"Dear viewers, these are the treasures in the jar. Everyone should know this treasure!"
[It turned out to be a pile of broken gold. I was so excited that I thought there was some strange treasure hidden inside! 】
[This gold is different from ordinary gold. This gold has obviously been smelted by someone. It should not be ordinary scrap gold!]
[Although these little gold pieces don’t look very good, I just discovered that there are no two gold pieces with exactly the same shape, and the shapes of these gold pieces are so cute.]
[It doesn’t feel like broken gold, but like a pile of melon seeds. In costume dramas, doesn’t the emperor often reward his harem and ministers with gold like this? 】
[The golden melon seeds in costume dramas are exactly the same as melon seeds. The ones dug out by Lao Wang grow up in various shapes, but they don’t look like melon seeds!]
The treasure Wang Xiaoshan dug out this time was indeed gold. These golds were not whole pieces, but small pieces of gold. If they were smelted, they could become gold ingots.
Some viewers in the live broadcast room have already guessed the name of this treasure. In fact, the treasure Wang Xiaoshan dug up this time can often be seen in film and television dramas, but the film and television dramas beautify this treasure.
"Dear viewers, what I dug out this time is indeed broken gold, but in ancient times, broken gold was called golden melon seeds!"
"Since ancient smelting technology was not very developed, golden melon seeds did not grow like our current sunflower seeds."
"When smelting golden melon seeds, there is no fixed mold, so each golden melon seed is different. It can also be said that each golden melon seed is unique."
"And because each golden melon seed has a different shape and is as fine as a melon seed, people generally call it golden melon seeds."
"In ancient times, people who owned golden melon seeds had one thing in common. These people were princes, nobles, celebrities and wealthy businessmen."
"In the Qing Dynasty, golden melon seeds became a royal possession of the emperor alone, mainly for daily rewards!"
Wang Xiaoshan briefly introduced some golden melon seeds he dug out today to the audience. Many viewers have seen golden melon seeds in costume dramas, but generally they only know that they are gold and don’t know how they are made.
[It turns out they are really golden melon seeds. Lao Wang, I want to talk about you. The number of golden melon seeds you dug out this time is too small. On TV and novels, it is a big handful or a big jar at a time, but you only have so little! 】
[I was fooled by the TV series. I thought golden melon seeds were exactly the same as melon seeds. Alas, the TV series is indeed unbelievable!]
[I feel that the pile of golden melon seeds dug by Lao Wang is not worth much, and the quantity is not as large as the gold ingots dug out yesterday!]
[It should have nothing to do with the quantity. Didn’t you hear what Lao Wang said? It was used by the emperor during the Qing Dynasty. Even if it was not used by the emperor before the Qing Dynasty, ordinary people would not encounter it! 】
[The concubines in costume dramas like this kind of golden melon seeds the most. I feel that it is really not as good as gold ingots. Gold ingots are more valuable because of their weight!]
The audience recognized the value of golden melon seeds, but many viewers still felt that golden melon seeds were not as valuable as gold ingots and their practical value was not as high as gold ingots.
Some viewers thought that the number of golden melon seeds dug up by Wang Xiaoshan was a bit small, which was completely inconsistent with what was shown in the TV series. It would be normal if several jars were dug out.
There were actually not many precious metals in ancient times. Only rich people could afford gold and silver. Ordinary people didn't even have silver, let alone gold.
"In ancient times, golden melon seeds were more of a symbol of honor, and honor was priceless!"
"Everyone has seen on TV and novels that the emperor rewards bunches of golden melon seeds. It is actually a bit exaggerated. If you give golden melon seeds in this way, the value of the golden melon seeds will become lower!"
"Things are rare and valuable, so the emperor will only reward a few or a dozen at a time. After all, the emperor is very busy and cannot carry a bag of golden melon seeds around every day and reward them. The emperor is not a boy who spreads his wealth!"
"Gold was a rare thing in ancient times. Although the concubines in the harem had no worries about food and clothing, and there were a lot of pearls and agates, gold was also very rare for them!"
"The emperor has countless concubines in his harem. Some people are unlucky and may never see the emperor in their lifetime."
"If a concubine is lucky enough to receive golden melon seeds as a reward from the emperor, in the eyes of the concubine, she has gained the emperor's favor, so all the concubines in the harem like golden melon seeds."
In the beginning, golden melon seeds were circulated among the people like broken silver. Later, the emperor felt that only he could use the golden melon seeds, so the golden melon seeds and the emperor were closely linked.
This also caused golden melon seeds to become a symbol of imperial power during the Qing Dynasty, so it was a great honor for the emperor to reward golden melon seeds.
Although golden melon seeds are not as prestigious as yellow jackets and death-free gold medals, getting golden melon seeds will make the whole family jump with joy.
After Wang Xiaoshan introduced it, the audience also understood that TV and novels were suspected of exaggeration, but such things did exist in ancient times, but there were not so many.
While Wang Xiaoshan was talking, the three reporters each took a few golden melon seeds and started studying them. When they heard about the reward from the emperor, they immediately became excited.
Some of them had seen the things the emperor had given them in museums, and they had seen them on TV like Golden Melon Seeds. If Wang Xiaoshan hadn't dug them out, the reporters would have thought that what was shown on TV was all made up.
These golden melon seeds dug out by Wang Xiaoshan were relatively large in number. When he was talking about it, he also let the audience see the different shapes of golden melon seeds.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! You can carefully distinguish where these golden melon seeds grow differently by looking at them one by one.
[Lao Wang, do you sell your golden melon seeds? I will buy them at the current gold price. Are you interested in selling some? I also want to eat melon seeds! 】
[How much honor does Lao Wang have for this jar? Even though the quantity is not as large as yesterday’s silver ingot, the honor value is higher than yesterday!]
[It is true that honor cannot be measured by how much money you have. The fact that this owner has so many golden melon seeds shows that this owner is definitely not an ordinary person.]
[Old Wang, we are all your loyal fans, when will you give us a few golden melon seeds to reward us! 】
[It was a rare thing in ancient times, but now it is a common thing. Who doesn’t have gold? If I could travel to ancient times, I would be rich!]
These spectators began to have Wang Xiaoshan's ideas again. The gold he dug out could not be sold at the gold price. The research value of these golden melon seeds was greater than the practical value.
If people in modern society could travel back to ancient times with their family's property, they would definitely become rich. Now ordinary people still have silver even if they don't have gold.
Wang Xiaoshan chatted with the audience for a while and then gave the camera to the expert, asking the expert to continue talking to the audience. The expert didn't come just now, so he made a cameo. Now that the expert is here, he can take a break.
Wang Xiaoshan put ten golden melon seeds on the table and locked the rest in the safe. These golden melon seeds were really small and could be easily lost.
The three reporters just finished listening to Wang Xiaoshan's explanation and went to write articles. The archaeological team also discovered golden melon seeds before, so there is a lot of information on the Internet.
Now the three reporters are afraid of Wang Xiaoshan, fearing that he will dig out dozens of coins again, so now they only need to dig out things and listen to the explanation before going to write the article without any further delay.
When Wang Xiaoshan went to rest, buyers had already started to contact him. These buyers all wanted to buy some golden melon seeds.
When these buyers didn't listen to Wang Xiaoshan's explanation, they all thought that golden melon seeds were ordinary gold. After listening to his explanation, the buyers felt that what he dug was a good thing.
The yellow jacket and the death-free gold medal are no longer useful in modern times, but they are definitely rare items in collections. If anyone has one, they will definitely put it in the most conspicuous place.
However, the quantity of the above two items in China is not large, and the yellow vest is not easy to preserve. The ones that have survived are all from the late Qing Dynasty, and very few have been preserved before the Qing Dynasty.
Since ancient times, the emperor has not given out a few gold medals to avoid death. The difficulty level is too high.
The golden melon seeds are different. Wang Xiaoshan dug out a jar this time, and there were at least hundreds of them. If the quantity is large, it is possible to buy them. These buyers want to buy a few to keep at home.
The weight of a golden melon seed is about 20 grams, and it costs up to 10,000 to buy one. Compared with other collectibles, golden melon seeds are already very cheap.
So there were a lot of buyers buying golden melon seeds from Wang Xiaoshan this time. Everyone wanted to make a profit, and some buyers offered high prices.
Gold maintains its value, and golden melon seeds also maintain their value. You will definitely make a profit if you buy them. As long as Wang Xiaoshan is willing to sell, there will be many buyers to buy!
However, Wang Xiaoshan rejected the requests of these buyers. The golden melon seeds dug out this time had expired and could only be handed over but not sold.
When he learned that Wang Xiaoshan would not sell the seeds, the buyer was still a little disappointed. For this reason, he even sent a message online to tell everyone that the golden melon seeds were not for sale.
Not only the buyers who have already bought Wang Xiaoshan’s baby want to buy it, but also the viewers in the live broadcast room want to buy golden melon seeds. When the experts are explaining, there are many viewers who keep swiping the screen to buy golden melon seeds!
In the end, there were so many people asking questions in the live broadcast room that Wang Xiaoshan had to let the experts take a break while he wanted to explain to the audience.
"Dear viewers in the live broadcast room, the golden melon seeds I dug up just now are cultural relics and cannot be sold. I'm really sorry."
"If you want to buy gold, you can go to a gold store. If you like the shape of gold melon seeds, you can ask the master of the gold store to make one!"
[Old Wang, we just like your golden melon seeds. The ones made by the gold shop masters all look like sunflower seeds, and they really have no characteristics! 】
[Lao Wang, think about it, is there any other way? You usually sell peripherals anyway, so you can sell goldware peripherals by the way! 】
The audience gave Wang Xiaoshan a lot of suggestions, but some suggestions were feasible, that is, making gold peripherals, as long as they look like the golden melon seeds he dug out.
"I'll think about it and give you an answer soon!"
After telling the audience, Wang Xiaoshan went to contact Liu Yali, who had been in contact with him at the live broadcast company.
Wang Xiaoshan: "Hello, Liu Yali, are you busy now? I want to discuss something with you!"
Liu Yali: "Hello, Lao Wang, I'm not busy. If you have anything to say, please tell me."
Wang Xiaoshan: "I dug out some gold today. It looks like melon seeds. Many viewers want to buy it. Can you make some peripheral products made of gold?"
Liu Yali: "Is the material made of gold? This thing may not be easy to sell, and the price is a bit high."
Wang Xiaoshan: "Let's make ten first and see the effect. There are viewers in the live broadcast room who have demands in this regard. It should be possible to sell ten of them if not more!"
Liu Yali: "Okay, I'll report this to the leader and I'll give you an answer later!"
Liu Yali can't make the decision in this matter. She can directly agree to Wang Xiaoshan for ordinary peripherals, but any gold peripherals cost at least several thousand, and there are still few people who buy this kind of peripherals.
The number of ten is not a lot, and it will be sold sooner or later if it is kept in the live broadcast room. Wang Xiaoshan is not worried about not being able to sell it. As long as the quantity is not large, it is easy to digest.
About ten minutes later, Liu Yali's phone call came. The company agreed to Wang Xiaoshan's request. Ten live broadcast companies had great confidence in Wang Xiaoshan.
Wang Xiaoshan selected a few long and distinctive golden melon seeds from all the golden melon seeds. He took several photos of each of these ten distinctive golden melon seeds.
Take as many pictures as possible so that the production master can produce a replica with a higher degree of similarity.
Not only the photos, Wang Xiaoshan also used a ruler to measure the length and thickness of these golden melon seeds. Anyway, he gave Liu Yali all the data he could give.
Making golden melon seeds is not difficult. As long as the data is complete, the master who makes it will be able to make it. If it doesn't melt well, you can make it again.
Wang Xiaoshan also told the audience in the live broadcast room about this. If there are viewers who want to buy it, they can buy it when it is put on the shelves in the near future. If you promote it in advance, you can save no one buying it on the day of sale.
The audience was very happy when they heard the news. It's not bad to buy a different genuine product and a replica. Anyway, gold retains its value. If you don't like it another day, you can just melt it down and make a ring.
There is no shortage of rich people in Wang Xiaoshan's live broadcast room. These rich viewers don't care about the money and just want to buy them home and display them as handicrafts.
In the afternoon, Wang Xiaoshan went to Yehu to dig a pit again, but the treasure in the pit was not ideal. It was silver ingots again, but this time the quantity was not large.
Wang Xiaoshan had always thought that the Treasure Pavilion was one room, but when he dug in the afternoon, he found that there was more than one room in the Treasure Pavilion, and he didn't know the specific number.
It seems that the owner of this house has so many treasures that they can't fit them all in one room. In the last room, Wang Xiaoshan found mainly silver ingots.
Although silver ingots were also found in this room, the quantity was obviously not as large as that in the previous room. The exact contents of this room can only be known by digging them out.
