The treasures of the town and the country have a good story, "Stepmother Pengding" was once almost robbed by the Japanese, can be regarded as "God bless China", the naming of it is even more twists and turns, even Guo Moruo has made a mistake in the name.
In the thirties, there were several more pirate caves near the Yin Ruins, according to the logic that the thieves did not go empty, the small gang led by Wu Peiwen was very unwilling, after a few days of heavy rain, the pirate caves seeped water quickly, pinched their fingers, there was goods at the bottom!
"The action should be fast, the movement should be small, the devils have come during the day, don't leak the wind", it turned out that since the discovery of the Yin Ruins, the Japanese "archaeological investigation team" has been tracked, they are stationed in the military officer village, and they also buy eyeliner everywhere, "the big brother has something", and Wu Xizeng of the same village touched the hard guy.
The bitter wind and rain in the middle of the night heralded that the baby was coming from an extraordinary way, everyone dragged out a bronze ding from the muddy water, although the rust was spotted, but the volume was definitely the hegemon of the ding, "the day dawned, the ding was sent to my home, others should hide", the Japanese nose was bright, Wu Peiwen was a little worried.
Three days later, I don't know who became the anti-bone boy, and the Japanese came to visit, "Hello Wu Sang! I am the sake field of the Imperial Research Association, I heard that you have dug up a ding, I am willing to buy 200,000 oceans, if you don't sell, hehe", the Japanese compared the appearance of machine guns with their bare hands, Wu Peiwen was angry.
"I am digging treasure to make money, but the treasure to stay in China, the Business of the Japanese I do not do", he almost paid a price for this sentence, after the Japanese left, there were strangers near the Wu House, sneaky, his home was almost stolen several times, and some people sent bullets, on the eve of the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Wu Peiwen buried Ding in the soil, he left his hometown, and died not to the Japanese.
After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Wu Peiwen returned to his hometown in despair, he dug out the ding and donated it to the government free of charge, when the world saw the bronze ding for the first time, they were all surprised, it was too solemn and exquisite.
In ancient times, casting Ding was a major national event, there were many manufacturing links, smelting requirements were high, Guo Moruo led the team to study, and named this Ding Simu Peng Ding, which triggered a debate about Baoding for half a century.
"Si" is the official position of Yin Shang, if the Ding is used to sacrifice the mother, the word "Si" is very inappropriate, and "Hou" represents greatness in the language of the Shang Dynasty, so it is renamed "Houmu Pengding", the two factions have been arguing, but because Guo Mo is a big coffee, the history books have been following the saying of Simu Pengding until 2011, when there was a change.
That year, after synthesizing the opinions of many parties, the National Museum finally made the decision to change its name and restore the historical origin, and since then Baoding has been called Houmu Pengding.
