An unknown cave appeared in Jiangxi Mountain Village, and large gold of eggplant was found in the cave, and the villagers could get rich without working

During the Tang Dynasty, the industry was developed, and the mining of gold mines became the key projects of the state at that time, and the Suichang Gold Mine in Zhejiang was excavated since the Tang Dynasty, with a thousand-year history, known as the "First Gold Mine in Jiangnan". But in fact, since the Tang Dynasty began to excavate gold mines is not only this one, there are similar mines in a small mountain village in Jiangxi, although the peaks are small, but the number of mines is amazing.

(1) The mystery of BaogongJianshan, fragments of ancient cultural relics appear

At the end of the last century, the villagers of Baojia Village, located near BaogongJianshan in Jiangxi, originally lived an ordinary life, but suddenly became rich because of a fortune from heaven, and the so-called wealth of heavenly descent came from the mine cave of Baogong Jianshan, which is not an ordinary copper mine and silver mine, but a gold mine that everyone could not dream of, whether this news is true or false.

Of course, at first the villagers did not dare to believe it, until they found a gold ore, and the reason why this stone was found was from the unknown porcelain bowl fragment in the mountain, what kind of fragment? It was connected to the gold mine.

Once, a young man from Baojia Village went up the mountain to cut firewood, but it happened that the weather suddenly changed, the road was slippery on a rainy day, and for safety, he had to wear a raincoat to avoid the rain under the trees. Wind and rain, the wind and rain collided with the rocks, as if the peaks were roaring, and the young man felt a little nervous.

Because usually he only moved at the foot of the mountain, but today, because he came later than others, some firewood was carried away by others, and in desperation, he could only go deep into the middle of the mountain alone. The further you go, the narrower the mountain road becomes, because very few people take this path.

Looking into the distance, he could see several large potholes, and the young man felt very strange how a good mountain could have these strange pits, and suddenly he thought of the legend about the mountain god. Listening to the ancestors, in fact, BaogongJianshan was once a famous mountain, but I don't know why it was famous.

In short, there used to be a lot of people living at the foot of this mountain, even the mountain was brightly lit, whether it was day or night, there were always some strange sounds, even in the distant towns. Later, over time, the legend of a mountain god living in Baogongjian Mountain gradually spread out, and if he was not careful to disturb him, he would be punished by the mountain god.

Slowly, Baogongjian Mountain became more mysterious, and many villagers did not dare to step on the top. Of course, the legend is always a story that is mythologized by people, the credibility is not very high, in the new century, people believe in science more, but the villagers still have a reverence for BaogongJianshan, and they can not go up the mountain without going up the mountain.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the young man hiding under the tree began to shake, I don't know if it was because of the cold or fear, but the only thing worth affirming was that he felt very regretful, and he knew that it was better to go home in the rain, but now he could only wait patiently.

After a while, the sky began to clear, the rain also stopped, the guy took off the raincoat and prepared to move his muscles and bones to prepare to go down the mountain, but suddenly the foot suddenly kicked something, the boy thought it was the sickle he had brought, so he bowed his head and prepared to pick it up, but he never thought that it was not a sickle and a half-size ceramic bowl.

Under the sunlight, although the ceramic is stained with dirt, but the pattern on it is still particularly beautiful, driven by curiosity, the guy digs it out little by little, but it is a pity that the bowl is a broken bowl, but the guy is still happy to take it home, but I don't know that this thrilling trip makes the secret of Bao Gong JianShan gradually surface.

(2) There are many caves and cliff inscriptions

What kind of secrets does BaogongjianShan, a mountain with an altitude of only 600 meters, hide? After harvesting a blue-and-white broken bowl from the mountain, the young man held the broken bowl every day because he felt that this blue-and-white bowl was the best of all the dishes in the house.

Seeing that the boy was so addicted to the blue and white bowl, the boy's parents felt a little curious, so they also had a heart for the blue and white bowl, thinking that it was complete and useful, but unfortunately it was a broken bowl, so the two made up their minds that they would have time to go up the mountain to see if they could find the bowl intact.

For the legend of the mountain god on Baogongjian Mountain, in fact, for the previous generation, they do not care, they think that this is just a story to scare young people, afraid that they will run around the mountain, because Baogongjian Mountain is steeper and steeper the road up.

However, for the blue and white bowl that was accidentally dug up, the boy's parents also felt a little strange, but they did not think much about it. In order to find a complete blue and white bowl, the boy's parents went up the hill every three to five minutes to see, probably because after the heavy rain, many things buried in the soil were washed out.

Although the boy's parents did not dig up the complete blue and white bowl, they also noticed that there were some strange things buried in the soil of BaogongJianshan, because they dug up some strange tools. As the boys' parents frequently went up the mountain, the villagers in the same village also noticed this abnormal phenomenon.

There were a few curious villagers who came to inquire, and the young man's parents did not want to hide, so they brought out some broken dishes and some unknown tools, and the villagers suddenly had a fierce discussion.

But it was quickly refuted by another villager, even if there are antiquities that should be buried under the ground, how can they be exposed, and these excavated tools do not look like filler tools, but like chiseling mountains. Many villagers are talking about it, and everyone seems to have a strong desire to explore BaogongJianshan.

The next day, many villagers rushed to the mountain with their tools, and although they had doubts, they all thought in their hearts that BaogongJianshan must be hiding unknown treasures. The power of one person is limited, but if everyone works together, the power of cooperation is very strong, and soon a villager digs out a stone with a little golden color.

Although gold ore is difficult to distinguish, but there are also people who go south and north to recognize goods all year round, some villagers think that this stone is different from ordinary stones, some people speculate that it may be ore, and the mine color is golden, it is very likely that it is a gold mine. When it comes to the gold mine, the villagers have come to the forefront and asked where they dug it.

The person who dug the ore was also an honest man, who immediately said that he had dug it in a cave in Baogongjian Mountain. So everyone rushed to the mysterious cave, under the search of everyone, everyone was surprised to find that there was more than one cave, so for several days, the villagers of Baojia Village began to dig for ore on the mountain, and even some people directly dug gold, which was not small, and the villagers were sure that Baogong Jianshan was actually a mine, and it was also a gold mine.

With the help of gold mining, the life of the villagers in Baojia Village has gradually improved, and even some villagers have learned to use tools to refine gold themselves. With the intensification of the excavation, the original path up the mountain has also been expanded into a large road, and some careful villagers have found that there are inscriptions on the mountain wall.

(3) The mine has enriched the villagers and made their reputation bigger and bigger

The mysterious inscriptions on the stone wall of Baogongjian Mountain all show the long history of this ancient mine, and many villagers always remind themselves not to destroy the words on the stone wall when mining, because these are likely to be clues to witness history.

Perhaps because the transmission of information was relatively slow at that time, only some villages and towns that were very close to BaogongJianshan knew the secret of the gold mine in Baogongjianshan. But with the exception of Baojia Village, the other villages are too far away and unsure whether the news is true or not, so few people come to mine.

Baojia Village, with its unique advantages, is vigorously carrying out ore mining work, and many villagers get up early in the morning and then pick up flat shoulders with the villagers of the same village to pack ore in sacks. As the mining level deepened, the villagers also found one mine hole after another on the mountain, and everyone was surprised.

I didn't expect that Bao GongJianShan had a different cave sky, and there were similar inscriptions and broken porcelain bowls around the mine. It is not surprising that one mine has inscriptions, but so many mines have inscriptions, and everyone thinks that there must be some connection between them, which may be some kind of sign.

Some people think that these porcelain bowls are not modern at first glance, and the tools are also, probably from some ancient period, but why are they left here, do they live on the mountain?

For this problem, other villagers also gave a reasonable explanation, they believe that the gold mine of Baogong Jianshan has been mined before, and it is not a person, it is likely that a team is mining, they are organized and planned, and camp on the mountain, which is why ancestors often say that Baogong Jianshan can make a sound.

The mine has been mined by an organization, but this does not affect the villagers' deep excavation, with the improvement of the alchemy technology of the villagers in Baojia Village, many people have practiced their own unique skills, ordinary alchemy is not a problem. Baogong Jianshan has become the source of prosperity for the people of Baojia Village.

Some people from outside the village have also begun to go to Baogongjian Mountain to search for treasure regardless of the distance, because they have determined that there are gold mines on the mountain. The population of a village is that large, but several villages add up to a large mining team, each digging in different directions in different mines, and there are many people looking for new mines.

But I don't know, I am shocked to find that there are hundreds of mines found, but it is obvious that there should be other mines. And in the excavation, the villagers found that the stone wall inscriptions are not all the same, because there are different ways of writing, and they are not from the same dynasty at first glance.

This shows that Baogongjian Mountain has not only been mined by one team, but by many teams, but the deep pits around the mine, the villagers do not understand what is the cause. With doubts in mind, time passed little by little, and the news that there was a gold mine in BaogongJianshan was also spreading farther and farther, which also attracted the attention of the state.

(4) Millennia-old mineral veins have become the objects of national key protection

In August 2009, a team of experts came to Baojia Village, Chating Town, Shangrao County, Jiangxi Province, and heard that Baogong Jianshan was a mine with a long history, and in order to complete a careful investigation, the team brought a lot of sophisticated equipment. Led by the villagers, the experts walked all the way up the BaogongJianShan Mountain.

Experts were surprised that there were so many caves in Baogongjianshan, they did not go through the mine for several days, and the villagers also told the experts about their previous mining experience in the village, and many people carried the burden down little by little.

Although it is very tiring to go up and down the mountain, but only a small piece of ore can be sold for 100 yuan, everyone is very happy, and with the deepening of mining to find the inscription on the stone wall of Baogong Jianshan, there are deep pits, many villagers speculate that the gold mine of Baogong Jianshan has been mined since a long time ago, and it has been mined by different teams.

For the stone wall inscription mentioned by the villagers in Baojia Village, experts found that the mine was likely to have been excavated since the Tang Dynasty, because the stone wall was engraved: "Qianyuan June 13, 1010", and Qianyuan is the era name of the Tang Suzong period, tracing back to history, the Tang Dynasty did develop mining industry.

According to the historical information provided by experts, during the Tang Dynasty, BaogongJianshan was likely to be a large mine, and after being excavated by the government, a team was formed to dig deeper, and it is likely that they camped on the mountain, but because the excavation of gold mines was a big thing, the government issued an order not to let the news spread.

Ordinary civilians did not know about the existence of gold mines, but perhaps the mineral resources were too rich, and the Tang Dynasty did not finish excavating until its demise, of course, this was also related to the mining methods at that time. The Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties followed the Tang Dynasty in successively mining the gold mines of BaogongJianshan.

The method of smelting gold ore by the ancients is basically the same, and those deep pits that are passed down by the villagers are actually a method of refining ore, the deep pit is equivalent to an artificial furnace, and then simple processing, which is used to refine gold ore is good, which saves materials and can complete metallurgy within the specified time.

In addition to the deep pit, experts are also blasting traces of rock in ancient methods on the periphery of the stone wall. Because the rock of the general gold mine is very hard, resulting in a mine hole chiseling takes a long time, so the "burning and bursting method" came into being, first the rock is heated, and then covered with cold water, alternating between hot and cold, the stone is easy to crack.

In addition to the discovery of more than 1,000 mine holes, experts also found a lot of porcelain, there are celadon cups of the Yuan Dynasty, Blue and White Cups of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, of course, basically all fragments, rarely complete. Today, BaogongJianshan has become a cultural site under national key protection.

With the certification of experts, Baogong Jianshan has become the earliest gold mine site found in the mainland so far, but the experts' research on these large and small mines has not ended, and those stone wall inscriptions have become an important clue to excavate the truth, and the layout and excavation of the Baogong Jianshan Mine can be seen from the progress of metallurgical technology on the mainland.

So far, the thousand-year-old ore history of Baogongjian Mountain still attracts countless tourists to stop, and with the strong support of the state, the gold mine site has been protected in many aspects, and a special law enforcement department has been set up under the initiative of experts to prevent some lawbreakers from coming to steal mining, destroy the mine cave and grind the cliff inscription.

Today, the thousand-year-old vein of BaogongJianshan still attracts countless tourists to stop, and a number of scenic spots such as the Mining Museum have been established here.
