481 Killing with a Borrowed Knife

Cao Wang smiled.

"This stone drum was rated as the treasure of the country, and this is not something I have evaluated."

"It was commented by the experts from our Palace Museum in the early years."

"The reason for this evaluation is not only because these stone drums contain the inheritance and changes of our Long Kingdom characters."

"The most important thing is this stone drum, a series of legendary experiences that followed."

Chen Rui raised his eyebrows: "Oh? How do you say this?"

"Hehe, this baby has experienced three ups and downs. Do you believe it?"

Chen Rui laughed, then took out a pack of Huazi and ordered one for himself.

Then he threw the remaining pack to Cao Wang: "Don't keep it aside, hurry up and talk!"

Although he also knew that selling antiques was the most taboo thing to listen to the seller telling stories.

But that is for others, for Chen Rui, who has sharp eyes.

Even if the other party's story is full of fragility, it is useless. As long as the goods are not right, he can tell at a glance.

And now, before seeing the real thing.

Listen to the other person's blowing water and learn more about antiques. It is always good for him.

Cao Wang also lit a cigarette for himself and continued to talk to him.

"The third time this stone drum has seen the light of day again, it is time for the Song Dynasty."

"After Zhao Kuangyin established the Northern Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty entered a period of peaceful development."

"When Song Renzong, this Yongcheng had been destroyed by war, and a new Fengxiang City was built on the spot."

"The magistrate of Fengxiang County at that time knew Song Renzong's preferences, so he sent people to look for these stone drums everywhere."

"Hard work pays off, and he really found these eight-sided stone drums in his jurisdiction."

"It's a pity that the original stone drum and the stone drum of Wuche have been lost. Then the prefect Fengxiang, the magistrate, made people forged these two stone drums."

"I gathered up ten stone drums and sent them to Bianliang City."

"After getting these ten-faced stone drums, Song Renzong was really happy."

"But the emperor is not so easy to fool. Soon the emperor discovered that there were two stone drums in it that were wrong."

"So, the ten-sided stone drums were sent back to the distance, and the prefect Fengxiang was also questioned by the emperor."

"Fortunately, the Song Dynasty had a good habit, that is, not to be convicted for words, and to treat civil officials well."

"So this Fengxiang prefect was able to save his head."

"By the way, this guy is named Sima Chi. He also has a son, the famous Sima Guang later..."

I have to say that Cao Wang really knows how to tell stories.

Speaking of this, although Chen Rui hasn't seen any stone drum yet.

But this guy has completely aroused his interest.

"I'll go, even Sima Guang is involved!"

He couldn't help but exclaim, and his nerves became more and more excited.

Because he knew that the more historical celebrities a treasure like this would involve.

Then the higher the value of this kind of cultural relics.

Cao Wang laughed at Chen Rui when he saw that he was so stunning.

"That's right, this stone drum has many celebrities involved later!"

"Later, in the late Northern Song Dynasty, the Song Huizong, who loved all kinds of rare stones the most, ascended the throne."

"How could he miss such a treasure? So he issued an order to transport Chen Cang Shigu to the capital Kaifeng."

"The two fake ones on both sides were transported to Kaifeng, and the more Song Huizong played with the stone, the more he liked it."

"Later, the goldsmith was specially asked to pour gold on the inscriptions of the stone drum and store it in the palace."

"But not long after the Jingkang Incident, the Jin army invaded Kaifeng and not only abducted Song Huizong and Song Qinzong."

"The Chen Cang Shi Gu also plundered the Chen Cang Shi Gu, but the Jin people did not understand the value of the Chen Cang Shi Gu."

"I just scraped off the gold on the drum and threw it into Zhongdu, which is now Daxing County, the capital city, and I ignored it..."

"well!"

When Chen Rui heard this, he could only smile bitterly and shook his head, and sighed.

"After that, in the Yuan Dynasty, Ming Dynasty, and Qing Dynasty, the Chen Cang Shigu remained in Beijing."

"During the War of Resistance Against Japan, Chen Cang Shigu was transported to Chongqing."

"Later, it was transported to Jinling again. In 1948, when the bald man was about to escape."

"I used to load this stone drum onto the plane, but unfortunately, because I was overweight, I finally threw down the ten-sided stone drums."

"That's how these ten-sided stone drums were preserved..."

Hearing this, Chen Rui sighed again, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.

Fortunately, this ill-fated national treasure was eventually retained in the mainland.

Sadly, the bald head took away more treasures...

And now most of those treasures have fallen into the hands of unfilial descendants.

"Later, our archaeological experts from New China conducted research on these stone drums."

"It turned out that the ten-sided stone drums recorded far more than the stories of folk fishing and hunting during the Qin Dynasty."

"It is recorded that the Qin State continues to grow and grow, and finally swallows up the six countries!!!"

"It is precisely because of this historical record, coupled with the use of Zhuwen, which has disappeared from later generations, that these ten-sided stone drums seem extremely precious."

"Even when the national treasure was evaluated later, these ten-faced stone drums were even rated as one of the nine national treasures!"

I have to say that Cao Wang is really good at eloquence, and now he finally finished telling the story of the stone drum.

As a loyal listener, Chen Rui even felt a little unsatisfied.

But he soon came back to his senses.

"Boss Cao, this stone drum is indeed a good thing."

"But tell me this..."

"The treasure you are looking for this time is not this stone drum!"

Cao Wang laughed and then slapped him.

"Yes, what we are looking for is really this stone drum!"

"But, aren't those ten-sided stone drums in the museum in Beijing now?"

Chen Rui looked at Cao Wang in confusion, and Cao Wang laughed again.

"Didn't you tell you before? There are two sides in these ten stone drums, and they were lost during the Tang Dynasty!"

When Chen Rui heard this, he couldn't help but feel shocked.

"You mean the cha raw stone drum and the Wuche stone drum?"

"That's right, last year, I was looking for dragons and broken holes in the mountains here, and accidentally came to the small mountain village here."

"A stone mortar was found in the yard of a family."

"This stone mortar was changed to a rice mortar and a whetstone by this villager. Most of the text on it was worn out and seriously damaged."

"But I looked at the remaining text on the stone mortar and felt it was very familiar, so I took a photo and went back to study it."

"I don't know if the result is not checked, I'll be shocked when I check it!"

"The remaining words on this stone mortar are exactly the same as those on the rubbings of the raw stone drum in the historical records!"

When Chen Rui heard this, he couldn't help but sit up.

"You mean, the raw stone drum was actually changed into a rice mortar?"

"Oh, hold the grass!"
