Most people buy things think that "cheap and no good goods", Zhejiang Yiwu small commodities can buy one for 2 yuan, but the quality is worrying, so many people feel that the more expensive things are sold, the better. However, there are exceptions to everything, a cultural relics expert found a unique sword on the stall, the sale price is only 2 million Hong Kong dollars, although 2 million Hong Kong dollars in the eyes of many ordinary people is still very high, but compared to the true value of this sword, 2 million Hong Kong dollars is a very low asking price.

In the ancient cold weapon society, the sword was an extremely important weapon, which was widely used in battlefields and close combat. After the Western Zhou Dynasty, the sword was not only the exclusive item of the warrior's self-defense, but the literati doctor would wear the sword as an ornament on the body.

However, the early swords of the Western Zhou Dynasty did not have a sword sheath, people tied a rope on the ring of the handle of the sword and hung it around the waist, and the sword was directly exposed to the air with a certain danger, and the sheath appeared in the late period, reducing the probability of the sword accidentally injuring others.

The earliest sword in China is the bronze sword of the Western Zhou Dynasty, but the most powerful time of bronze sword forging technology is not the Western Zhou, but the Spring and Autumn Period, Wu Guo and Yue Guo are especially good at casting swords, and the sword name Zhenjianghu cast by Ou Yezi, the originator of the Yue Kingdom's "sword casting", is zhenjianghu, and the five famous swords of the Yue King, Zhanlu, Pure Jun, Sheng Evil, Fish Intestine, and Giant Que, are his representative works.

After Gou Jian's death, in order to be worthy of his position as overlord, his son Lu Yin found Ou Yezi to cast a sword for him, and Ou Yezi cast him "Warring States Yue King's Will to Bow Sword", this sword is currently hidden in the Zhejiang Museum, why can it be in Zhejiang Bo, there is a tortuous story.
