Chapter 4 The Legend of the Antiquities of the Yellow River
In fact, I have studied the ancient relics from the Yellow River. Many of them have been salvaged in the past dynasties. According to the actual situation, they can be divided into four types:
The first is that cultural relics on the ground are buried in the yellow sand under the river due to the Yellow River.
According to historical records, the Yellow River was threatened by flooding nearly 1,593 times between three and four thousand years before 1946. Due to flooding, the river course was changed a total of 26 times. More than a thousand years ago, Donghua Mountain was not a Yellow River channel but a hilly area.
Do you know how many historical monuments were buried in the rolling mud by the sudden torrent when the Yellow River was diverted? Therefore, as long as the counties on the edge of the Yellow River have legends about ancient artifacts being salvaged from the Yellow River,
The second is because various religious rituals gave artifacts that were sunk into the river. In ancient times, the people on both sides of the Yellow River used almost every trick to control floods in the Yellow River. Among them, they used Feng Shui secrets to throw the iron oxen and horses that suppressed the river into the surging yellow soup.
Some things have never seen the light of day, while others were accidentally salvaged by later generations.
The third type is shipwrecks. There are countless souls sunk in the mud of the Yellow River. However, because the Yellow River waterway begins to calm down in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, all large shipwrecks are generally buried in the mud in the lower reaches of the Yellow River. So the ones here should not be...
The fourth type is the most mysterious. In many places, some unexplainable things have been dug out of the river mud. No one knows what they are, what age they were, and why they sank into the river. For example, before liberation, there was something in the Gansu section of the Yellow River.
An iron tree was dug up on the river beach and even though it was dug more than ten meters deep, the head could not be dug out. Later, a landowner asked people to saw the tree. As a result, the next day all the trees within a radius of ten miles withered overnight.
The stone platform under the Yellow River should be of the last type, but after breaking it open, it turned out to be a coffin inside. I really didn't think that if there was a coffin inside the stone platform, would the stone platform be actually the tomb chamber of an ancient tomb?
?
I drank too much with Wang Quansheng that night and went back to sleep without saying much to the young master and agreeing to show him what I collected tomorrow. The young master told me that farmers pay more attention to immediate interests. You can talk to him now.
If you keep the things for you, he will definitely lose his patience when he comes home and thinks about it. He might bring something here again in a week and sell it this time. He has already sold things before and knows the price. Then the chance of success is very high, so he wants to
It’s better to think about it all as soon as possible.
What the young master said made sense, and I felt a little anxious after hearing it. But I had no money and had no choice but to tell him that I knew what was going on.
When I returned to my room, I thought about it. I wanted to take these things to Shanghai and sell them for a while to find a few good customers. But I was afraid that as the young master said, when I came back after selling out, Wang Quansheng would also be sold out. I couldn't make a decision for a while.
.
That night, I had a dream. I saw a big river. King Quansheng was holding a top-quality Warring States hexagonal bronze plate and selling it on the other side of the river. I took the money and called the old man here, but he couldn't hear me. When he called, a man came from the other side and took it out.
I had to buy that bronze plate for five yuan a piece, so I panicked and fell into the river.
When he woke up after a fall, he realized that he had fallen off the bed and shook his head and said to himself: "Having such a dream seems to be a revelation from God. It would be better to go to Wang Quansheng first."
At this time, the sun had just risen outside, and it was still a hazy gray outside the window. The light in the room was very poor.
When I looked at my watch, it was already five o'clock. The antique market was about to open in the morning. This is the time when there are the most good things and the most fakes. I usually don't leave early, but I thought that since I was awake, I might as well go shopping and see if I could find a good customer.
He sold a few of the things in there and then went back to Linhe County to eat all Wang Quansheng's goods.
I thought about putting on my clothes and turned on the fluorescent lamp on one side.
