"Having money can make ghosts grind", the meaning of this sentence is that money is very important, of course, the truth is also the same, everyone struggles all their lives to make money, some people work hard in a down-to-earth manner, but some people complain all day long but do nothing, the dream only stays in the imagination, dreams want to get rich. It is so easy to get rich, either gambling or breaking the law, including the method of robbing tombs.
Everyone must have seen tomb robbers digging ancient tombs in novels and film and television dramas, and tomb robbers have existed since ancient times, and today we want to talk about a tomb robber named Jia Hu in the Yuan Dynasty. This may be the most bizarre and dedicated tomb robber in history, he will actually build a house on the ancient tomb in order to steal the tomb, and it took twenty years before and after to successfully steal the treasure, and then we will take a look at his tomb robbery journey.
Build a house on the tomb in order to dig the tomb
Jia Hu was born in Langya County, which is a place in today's Xuzhou. Jia Hu's family's economic conditions were relatively poor, originally he wanted to participate in the imperial examination to get ahead when he grew up, but unfortunately he was just in time for the Yuan Dynasty to establish the imperial examination system and was canceled, so the family's hopes were dashed. With nowhere to go, Jahu stayed at home every day, and did not say that he would go to find some work to do, until he finished eating his old book and was about to go begging, and then he began to look for work.
Looking for a job, it is not serious, but to rob the tomb. Jia Hu knew a fellow before, and the fellow advised him to get ahead, having money is the king, and now he can mix so well is to rob the tomb, get acquainted, and he expressed his willingness to take Jahu with him. At that time, the social atmosphere of the Yuan Dynasty was extreme, even if there were many rules, people were still divided into three, six, nine, and so on, and the cancellation of the imperial examination directly made the Han people mixed to the bottom, and the people who chose to rob the tomb were also forced to be helpless.
The day after tomorrow, Jia Hu became one of the tomb robbers under the leadership of his fellow villagers, and at that time they heard that there was a local tomb in Xuzhou that was very famous, and the owner of the tomb was still a figure with a head and a face, and they were sure that the tomb must have buried a lot of gold and silver jewelry. Saying that he would do it, Jahu found the tomb with the excavating tools, picked up the shovel and began to work hard, but after a long time he could not see anything, and the bottom of the soil was either soil or stone.
Wanting to end it but not reconciled, Jahu thought about it for half a day, and finally decided to build a house on the cemetery, first occupy it for himself, and dig it as he wanted later.
The owner of the tomb is distinguished
In this way, Jahu made a home on the earthen tomb, and the intermittent time added up to twenty years, and twenty years of digging more than forty feet. As long as the kung fu is deep, the iron pestle is ground into a needle. After entering the tomb, the treasures in front of him were innumerable, basically swords and utensils, all of which were the taste of money, AndJahu was so happy that he could not close his mouth, and in the second half of his life, he had endless glory and wealth, and he quickly folded all the funerary goods.
The news of Jahu's publicity selling swords and utensils was heard, and even the government heard about it, and they were very confused about Jahu's behavior and went directly to his home to arrest him. The money was gone before the money was warm in his pocket, and Jia Hu's twenty years were all in vain, and the money and treasures he received were also handed back to the public family. What kind of tomb could make Jahu willingly give twenty years? It turned out that the identity of the owner of this earthen tomb was not ordinary.
All the surrounding villagers believe that the owner of this earthen tomb is Fan Zeng. In the history of our country, Fan Zeng, a man of both humanities and martial arts, although his family conditions were not very rich, were not too bad, and his father was an official of the imperial court. Under the guidance of his father, Fan Zeng later made great contributions, because he was an indispensable person around Xiang Yu, and when Xiang Yu Xiangliang encountered difficulties, Fan Zeng would always rush to the rescue at the first time. It can be said that Fan Zeng, the founder of the Western Chu regime, also contributed a lot.
Experts deny that the owner of the tomb is Fan Zeng
Fan Zeng, recorded in the history books, finally died of a serious illness because he was suspected by Xiang Yu and resigned from his official position on the way home. Although Fan Zeng is not a very big person, he does have a lot of achievements, so there are definitely many funeral items after his death. The surrounding villagers are interested in this, a pass of ten to ten hundred, only to make the Yunlong Mountain tomb famous, those tomb robbers also want to make a windfall, will come here regardless of danger to dig up thieves.
At the same time, there are also archaeologists who know about this ancient tomb, in order to determine who the owner of the tomb is, they came to Yunlong Mountain, and after studying the cultural relics unearthed, especially the silver jade clothes unearthed, they found that this tomb is not Fan Zeng's, it is most likely the tomb of Liu Ying, the king of Chu in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The results of the expert stunned all the local villagers, including Jia Hu, according to the experts, Fan Zeng died before the establishment of the Han Dynasty, and this tomb used indeed Eastern Han bricks and stones, thus proving that this is definitely not Fan Zeng's.
It has been determined that it is not Fan Zeng's tomb, but the Eastern Han Chu king Liu Ying's has yet to be examined. In order to prevent errors, experts decided to study further, because archaeological conclusions must be determined, I believe that in the near future, when archaeological techniques are more sophisticated, the truth will be revealed.
epilogue:
I have to admit that JiaHu's twenty years spent digging tombs is indeed very powerful, but if he can replace the tomb digging with other legitimate work, he must have mixed up in twenty years. From him, we must take the essence of his dross, learn from his perseverance spirit, as for the tomb robbery, forget it, such opportunistic things as soon as possible to dispel the idea, only down-to-earth can be successful.
