Chapter 10 Tomb Raiders
Jiahao's words confirmed the boss's idea that the color on this jade was most likely caused by the deceased's clothes or something on his body.
"Brother, there are many different ways of saying this color. For example, the one with a single color is called: Unified Buza." The one with two colors is called: Tianxuan Dihuang, and three colors.
It is called: Taoyuan Jieyi or Sanyuan Jidi, the four-color Qin is called: Fu, Lu, Shou Xi, and the five-color Qin is called: Five Blessings and Longevity."
"Boss, although the material of this jade is ordinary, it is just carved from sapphire, but with the addition of these two colors, it can be sold for at least twenty to thirty thousand yuan. Unfortunately, this jade has a cattail pattern on both sides. If it were like this
The pattern on one side of the jade is a dragon-patterned Pu Bi, which is worth at least 100,000 yuan."
The secret color mentioned by Jiahao often represents people's good wishes. However, for the boss, the first impression in his mind is still on the cause of the formation of the secret color of the jade. He cannot think of the jade itself at all.
There is a saying to ward off evil spirits.
The eldest son's family is a business family. The family has built a building specifically to worship the gods, ancestors and Lord Guan. The God of Land and Wealth at the door can be seen everywhere in the homes of relatives of the eldest son's family. The eldest son has been influenced by it since he was a child. Even he.
I don’t believe it, but I still stay away from these objects taken from dead people. “Bah, I don’t want any of these things from dead people.”
What the boss said made Jiahao dumbfounded. Not to mention ancient jades. As for the various antiques handed down from the people, I am afraid that seven or eight out of ten were plucked out of tombs. According to what the boss said, there are no
People went to collect antiques.
Most of the antiques stolen from the tombs are treasures. As you can imagine, those emperors and ministers had a noble status when they were alive. They all thought that after death, they could continue to enjoy the honor of the glorious ones in the underworld.
.
For the rich funerary objects in the tombs, the tomb robbing industry has never ceased since ancient times. Driven by huge profits, countless tomb robbers take risks and dig ancient tombs. To this day, there are still some tomb robbing families in Henan, Shaanxi and other places.
This is all clearly documented.
In rural areas of Henan, Shaanxi and other places, there is often a slogan: dig graves and rob tombs to make a fortune. This shows how attractive these tombs are to people.
The most well-known tomb robbery case in modern times is Sun Dianying, a thief who was originally a bandit and later joined the revolutionary ranks. When Sun Dianying was stationed in Hebei, he dug up the entire Eastern Tomb of the Qing Dynasty and the Yu Tomb of Emperor Qianlong.
The Dingtung Mausoleum of Empress Dowager Cixi was cleaned out. Not only that, before she left, she smashed the coffin, destroyed the body and discarded the bones, collecting the burial treasures of the extravagant and extravagant ruler of the Qing Dynasty.
Poor Emperor Qianlong, who called himself "Old Man Shiquan" when he was alive, ended up with a mutilated body after his death because of these external possessions. Cixi was even more miserable, her whole body was stripped naked and her body was left on the ground.
However, what Sun Dianying did was not very secretive. It was soon known to the Manchu elders. At that time, all the Manchu royal families, headed by Fuyi, jointly reported Sun Dianying's crime of robbing his ancestor's tomb to Chiang Kai-shek. In order to appease
Due to the resentment of these people, Chiang Kai-shek declared that he would investigate the case strictly.
After Sun Dianying realized the seriousness of the matter, in order to protect himself, he gave Chiang Kai-shek the most expensive and priceless Kowloon sword among the items stolen in the tomb robbery. At the same time, he gave the huge night-light pearl stolen from Cixi's tomb to Soong Meiling.
Song Ziwen also received the gold and jade watermelon from Cixi's tomb. In addition, important government officials such as Kong Xiangxi, He Yingqin, and Yan Xishan received many valuable antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and other treasures. This shocking case was dismissed.
Just imagine, even Soong Meiling can play with the luminous pearl she took out from Cixi's mouth. What does Jiahao have to be afraid of? Jiahao has always had no good impression of ancient people. On the contrary, Qian Na Pao Curse Su
On the contrary, the thief and the wealthy family are very fond of him.
You said that these emperors and generals have all died, and you still insist on leaving these treasures in the ground. Although many treasures and antiques were preserved in tombs, almost all of the antiques such as calligraphy and painting rotted in these emperors and generals.
Xiang's tomb.
"###, you can just keep this thing. If anyone wants it, sell it. If no one wants you to keep it for yourself, just treat it as a gift from your elder brother. No, you can't give objects from dead people as gifts."
Geely, just think of it... just think of it as..."
The fourth child thought for a long time and couldn't think of a name for it, but he didn't dare to keep the jade and play with it. The good mood of picking it up was completely disturbed by Zhuang Rui's words.
"Well, it's a good thing that you were born in New China and grew up under the red flag, but you are still superstitious about this thing. Brother, did you really give it to me?"
Jiahao weighed the jade in his hand. He didn't have this kind of psychological burden. He didn't care whether it was played by a dead person. After all, he would play with this thing for decades.
Even after death, this object still needs to be passed on.
"I give it to you. I really give it to you. Let's go back to the hotel and have good luck."
The boss couldn't help waving his hands, as if touching the jade had brought on the bad luck of the dead. He was even more anxious now than when he came. He must have gone back to the hotel to wash his hands and put incense.
"No, brother, we finally came across the ghost market. I don't know if there will be one tomorrow. Let's go back later. You can take me to the stall where I buy jade."
It was already around seven o'clock in the morning. There were gradually more and more pedestrians on Jade Street. Some shops were already preparing to open their doors. However, most of the stall owners in the ghost market had closed their stalls and left. Jiahao wanted to try his luck.
Check it out at the stall where Laoda buys jade.
It is possible that unearthed objects like these were sold by tomb robbers. Of course, they usually have regular customers.
However, there are also some tomb robbers whose main occupation is to set up stalls in various places. Grave robbing is just a side job. These people often keep some treasures and then sell the remaining scattered small items that cannot be estimated accurately.
Moreover, real and fake antiques are mixed together. Whether you can find treasures depends on each person's ability.
"I'm not going. You have to go by yourself. I'll go back first."
The boss immediately walked to the hotel. Jiahao saw that there were not many stalls on the Jade Street, so he followed him back to the hotel, but Jiahao had already made up his mind. He would get up early tomorrow to go shopping again.
Go shopping, there are many more good things in this ghost market than in those antique markets.
After returning to the hotel, the Pao Ya waiter on the night shift was no longer there. Both Jiahao and his wife breathed a sigh of relief, facing such a superb product. I'm afraid they couldn't even eat breakfast, but the boss obviously couldn't eat it at this time.
I was not in the mood to have breakfast. I felt like my butt was on fire, so I went back to the room and washed my hands.
Jia Hao didn't mind it. He went to the restaurant to have breakfast and packed a portion for his boss to take with him.
