In daily life, gold, silver, copper are the three most common precious metals, in ancient times were even used directly for currency use, copper is generally trained as copper coins, and silver is trained as a treasure. Gold is the rarest, and it is rarely used directly to buy goods, and is generally used by the nobility to create a variety of utensils and objects. At the end of the 1970s, an old farmer in Shanxi found 193 pieces of gold ware while farming, which can be said to have picked up a huge treasure. Expert valuation: Sold in grams is also worth 11.5 million.
The old farmer who found the gold ware was surnamed Yang, and was an ordinary farmer of the Juntungou Brigade in The Western Province. Every day the brigade will organize villagers to weed in the brigade ditch, Yang Laonong is an honest farmer, and the work is always particularly hard. The grass he was assigned to the grass was close to the cliff, and after he finished hoeing the grass on the ground, he also removed the grass from the cliff for beauty.
Last year, it rained heavily in Shanxi, so the cliff collapsed a lot. Yang Laonong dug up a hard object after a few hoes, Yang Laonong thought it was a stone, and he dug hard and the hoe stuck out. Yang Laonong keenly felt that there must be something inside, so he carefully cleaned up the soil, and sure enough, he found a wooden box.
This wooden box was really not small, Yang Laonong took a lot of effort to clean it out, he looked inside through the gap he had dug out, and his eyes widened suddenly. Inside was a pile of goldware! Although I don't know how many years it has been buried, it is still golden, is this not gold?
Yang Laonong did not have time to think about how to deal with this batch of goldware, the other team members came to see the liveliness, the first person to come over was a box of gold immediately shouted excitedly and shouted, everyone came together with a wind, some people began to take gold into the box, after being robbed of most of the half, Yang Laonong hurriedly held the box back home.
Early the next morning, Yang Laonong came to the town credit union with one of the gold objects, and he told the credit union about the gold he had picked up. The credit union immediately reported the matter to the local cultural relics department, and the matter was not small, and even people from the province came.
The provincial cultural relics department, with the coordination of the local police, collected all 193 pieces of gold artifacts that were left behind, and Yang Laonong handed over all of them together with the wooden box.
After research, experts have concluded that the gold artifacts were produced in the Tang Dynasty. The specific time is also inscribed on the gold ware, which is the "Qianyuan First Year", that is, 758 AD, during which the Tang Dynasty was experiencing unprecedented wars, that is, the famous "Anshi Rebellion", so what is the relationship between the gold and the Anshi Rebellion?
There are also experts who have found the words "Zhang Tongru, a hero of the State of Wei in the Pillar State", in a small number of gold objects, presumably this person is the owner of the gold tools. Experts deduce that Zhang Tongru should have secretly buried the treasure here when An Lushan's army was gradually defeated, but as a result, he did not have the opportunity to take it again, and it has been discovered by Yang Laonong.
Yang Laonong can be said to have made a great contribution this time, this batch of Tang Dynasty gold ware is extremely archaeological value, even if the archaeological value is not to be mentioned, the total weight of gold alone has reached more than 30,000 grams, according to the current gold price on the market, it is also worth about 11.5 million yuan. If it had not been discovered by Yang Laonong, it would not have been unearthed until the Year of the Monkey and the Month of the Horse, and if it had been secretly obtained by the outlaws, it would have been an immeasurable loss.
