Chapter 487: Found the treasure of the Three Kingdoms!
Fortunately, Uncle Ma is with him, otherwise Liu Dong would really not be able to find a place by himself!
"Here we are, right here!" Under Uncle Ma's guidance, Liu Dong's Land Rover stopped in front of a dilapidated-looking courtyard gate.
In fact, it is said that it is dilapidated, which is really a little overestimating, because except for the courtyard gate which is still intact, the gate tower above that was supposed to protect the wind and rain has long since disappeared, leaving only the mottled earthwork walls on both sides standing alone.
Fortunately it is winter now, otherwise Liu Dong believes there would be a lot of weeds up there.
Like Liu Dong's house, the gatehouse is also in the southeast corner of the entire yard. After entering the door, you are faced with a screen wall made of earth, but it is also peeled off by half. But at least it can still serve as a starting point for blocking.
However, after entering, Liu Dong discovered that the courtyard walls on the south and west sides had collapsed long ago, and now they were just connected with bundles of corn stalks to serve as temporary courtyard walls!
To be honest, Liu Dong has never seen such a shabby home, but fortunately the main room is not bad, at least the outer floor is made of blue bricks!
The yard is not too big, but it is filled with oil paper, iron bars, corn and other common sundries found in farmers.
"Come on, you go this way!" Uncle Ma didn't know how to call Liu Dong. He wanted to call him brother, but he was too young, not much older than his son, and he was also a rich man. This made Uncle Ma uncomfortable.
There was some hesitation, but in the end I could only say "you, you"!
But he didn’t care much about calling Liu Dong! So after hearing the greeting, he quickly followed him!
After opening the door, Liu Dong couldn't find any good furniture except for the Eight Immortals table. Besides the huge radio placed inside the Eight Immortals table, he really didn't see any electrical appliances in this house.
.
However, in this small and messy living room, there is one thing that attracts Liu Dong's attention the most! That is the certificates hanging all over the room!
Densely packed, there are thirty or forty of them!
"Uncle Ma, do you have three sons?" Liu Dong said in surprise after seeing the different names on the certificates.
"Yes, the eldest is in the third year of high school now. The college entrance examination will be taken after the new year! The second brother is in the first year of high school now, and the youngest is in the second year of junior high school!" When talking about his three sons, Uncle Ma's face was full of pride and enthusiasm.
satisfy!
"You are really good at teaching your children. I think they all rank first in these certificates!" Liu Dong praised.
"Haha, the kids are pretty good at it!" Uncle Ma said cheerfully.
Children's academic performance is the best reward for parents. They hope that their children will grow up, no matter how hard and tired they are, when they hear that their children have good grades in school, all their hard work will turn into sweetness!
At this time, Liu Dong also understood why Uncle Ma's family was so embarrassed. Obviously, like Liu Dong's parents, they invested all their money in studying for their three children!
"Uncle Ma, will you take care of three children by yourself?" Liu Dong asked.
"No, I'm working in the greenhouse right now, and I only come back for lunch at noon!"
Liu Dong nodded when he heard this. He knew that although the greenhouse vegetables in Qingzhou were not as famous as Shouguang, the output was not bad at all.
"By the way, you sit down first, and I'll take out those jade pieces for you!"
After finishing speaking, Uncle Ma turned around and walked into the side room. After a while, a man walked out carrying a half-full snakeskin bag.
"Slow down. I'll do it!" Liu Dong quickly went up to take it, fearing that the priceless jade pieces of the jade garment would be damaged.
"It's quite heavy!" Holding it in his hand, Liu Dong estimated that most of the bag of jade pieces weighed at least a hundred kilograms.
After putting it down gently, Liu Dong asked: "Uncle Ma, how many pieces of jade are there, have you counted them?"
"I didn't count it. After it was dug out of the ground, it has been kept in this bag! If it hadn't been for the blind man Wang next door who bought a copper pot dug out of the ground for 100 yuan a few days ago. I really didn't expect it.
You can make money with this thing too!”
After listening, Liu Dong's eyes lit up. He quickly said: "Uncle Ma, do you often dig things out of the ground here?"
"I can't say for sure. In the past, I often heard that people dug it up. Later, I heard people say that it is an antique. If you dig it up, you have to hand it in, or it is against the law, so there are fewer people saying this!"
"Then you won't be afraid of breaking the law if you dig up this piece of jade and sell it?" Liu Dong said with a smile.
"Hey, what are you afraid of! I dug it in my own land. I didn't steal it or rob it. Why should the public security bureau arrest me?"
Hearing this, Liu Dong nodded and said nothing more. Farmers' thinking is very simple. They don't understand any cultural relics laws. They only know that the things in their own fields belong to them! And this has been passed down in rural areas for thousands of years.
rule!
"Uncle Ma, I don't even know how many jade pieces there are in here. These five thousand yuan should be enough!" Liu Dong took out a thick stack of Huaxia coins from the mustard space, opened it, and output it.
Usually it is placed in Uncle Ma's hands.
"Five...five thousand?" Uncle Ma opened his mouth in surprise, "Is this too much?"
Five thousand yuan is almost one-third of his annual income!
"Not much, just take it!"
There were between 2,000 and 5,000 pieces of jade in the Han Dynasty's golden jade clothes. Although Liu Dong didn't count how many jade pieces he got, he thought it should be more than 2,000 pieces. Five thousand yuan is enough! There are even some more.
!
However, Liu Dong is still willing to help Uncle Ma. His family is really similar to his own, with the same number of children and the same school expenses! Of course, because the price has been negotiated before, Liu Dong also
It's not good to just give tens of thousands to tens of thousands. You are pitying others and giving away money! Everyone can see this!
Although farmers are poor, it does not mean that they have no backbone!
"Uncle Ma, apart from these jade pieces, did you find anything else?" Liu Dong asked.
Hearing this, Uncle Ma hesitated and said: "I still have a few things, but they are all broken. Do you still want them?"
"Can I take a look first?" Liu Dong said quickly.
"Okay, just wait, I'll get it for you!" With that, Uncle Ma turned around again and walked into the side room next to him!
"Teng!"
Looking at what Uncle Ma brought out, Liu Dong stood up all of a sudden, his face full of disbelief and uncontrollable surprise!
"Wrong Jinbo Mountain Furnace!" Liu Dong said in shock.
In 1968, the excavation of Han tombs in Mancheng made Prince Jing Liu Sheng of Zhongshan and his wife Dou Wan famous in China and even the world. Gold, silver, bronze, iron, jade, stone, pottery, lacquerware, silk fabrics and other relics were unearthed1
There are more than 10,000 pieces, including the "Jade Clothes with Golden Threads", "Changxin Palace Lantern", "Cuo Jinbo Mountain Stove", "Suzaku Ring Cup" and other national treasures!
It was also from this time that people really remembered the incense that appeared during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty - Boshan stove!
However, the appearance of the Cuojin Boshan furnace in Uncle Ma's hands is different from the Boshan furnace in the Han tombs in Mancheng.
Except that the Boshan on the furnace lid is somewhat similar, the lower part of the furnace body is not supported by a round support pole, but a kneeling maid from the Han Dynasty. The maid kneels with a serene expression on the gold tray, with her hands raised high, and
The bun on the top of the head forms a stable triangle, supporting the furnace body above.
But it is a pity that the furnace body of the Boshan furnace has been separated into two parts from the maid who lifted it. Fortunately, the entire Boshan furnace is still quite intact, with no obvious defects, and there is not much patina on the furnace body.
!The gold decoration is also quite smooth and complete!
After Liu Dong carefully placed the furnace body on the head of the maid, a gorgeous bronze vessel with a height of about 40 centimeters, a gold plate at the base of 15 centimeters in diameter, a shape like a bean, and built on the Xiaobo Mountain, with the whole body covered with gold—the Cuojin Boshan furnace, was complete.
Appeared in front of Liu Dong.
At this time, Uncle Ma brought out a large, green-rusted copper pot from the side room! The copper pot had a rounded mouth, a short neck and a bulging belly. The lid was about fifteen centimeters, and there were two standing alien beasts on it.
There are two inlaid ring ears on both sides of the drum belly. A circle around the body of the pot is a hunting pattern common on pre-Qin bronzes!
However, the body of this large copper kettle, which is nearly 60 centimeters in height and more than 40 centimeters in diameter, has been cracked. From the neck of the kettle to the waist and abdomen, a large hole about 30 centimeters long has cracked.
The width is nearly five centimeters! In addition, there are many cracks and depressions in other places, which is really terrible.
Seeing this copper kettle, Liu Dong understood why Uncle Ma didn't take them to the antique market to sell them!
Of course, although the Han Dynasty bronze kettle and the Cuojin Boshan furnace were severely damaged, they were all missing parts and could basically be repaired completely.
Therefore, things that may be worthless in Uncle Ma's eyes are priceless treasures in Liu Dong's eyes!
"That's it for these two things! Take a look!" Uncle Ma said after placing the copper pot on the Eight Immortals' table.
"Uncle, I want both of these two things!" Liu Dong said impatiently.
"You want these too?" Uncle Ma asked in surprise.
Originally, he wanted to keep some things and sell them when he met someone who went to the countryside to collect rags!
"If you want it, I want it. I'll give you 50,000 yuan for each item!" Liu Dong said.
Although the price of these two pieces of bronzeware together is far more than 100,000 yuan, which cannot even be measured simply in terms of money, but even if Liu Dong has the intention to help him, it cannot be more! It is not that he has no money, but what
Everything has a certain point, and if it goes beyond this point, it will only have the opposite effect in the end!
He didn't want his kind intentions to lead to a tomb robber!
Even so, Liu Dong's price of 50,000 yuan per piece still shocked Uncle Ma. He had never thought that these two items, which he thought could only be sold as junk, were actually worth so much money!
One hundred thousand yuan is what he was able to save after working hard for ten years!
"You...are you telling the truth?" Uncle Ma stammered with excitement and nervousness.
"Of course!...Uncle Ma, wait for me!"
