After reigning for more than twenty years, he has repeatedly changed his works in view of the loss of Hailing, and it is inevitable that there will be mimechanics. ------------------
preface
Speaking of the historical Jin Dynasty, I believe many people will feel a little strange, the Jin Dynasty was established by the Jurchens in 1115-1234. The feudal dynasty that ruled northern and northeastern China was founded by Guanyan Akuta, and friends who have seen Mr. Jin Yong's "Biography of the Archery Hero" should have the impression that the Jin Dynasty was a dynasty established by ethnic minorities who confronted the Song Dynasty.
Scrap station owner cleans up "copper lumps"
Nowadays, people know the value of cultural relics, but around the 80s, many people did not have a certain understanding of antique cultural relics. In 1987, such an incident occurred in Acheng, Heilongjiang, where there were many waste collection stations, and many people would take the waste products that they could not use at home to sell here, which was a very common thing at that time.
There is a small local waste collection station, run by an elderly man in his 60s, where there are usually only two people, the elderly and the little grandson. One day in May, the old man's little grandson was napping, taking advantage of this time the old man also simply picked up the purchase station, in the process of picking up a "copper lump" in the corner of the waste station, the boss did not care at the time, it felt like a copper block with a strange shape, and he could not remember who came to sell the waste products here.
That grandson didn't think it was a cultural relic when he was a toy
Because the shape of the "copper lump" is more special, there are some strange lines on it, and there is a "button" on the back, and the old man first cleaned the copper block several times. Repeatedly looked at the texture above, but could not see what it meant, just the little grandson did not have any toys, the old man tied a rope on the "button" for the little grandson to play.
The little grandson has never seen this thing, naturally he feels more novel, so he also plays with it in his hand every day, and slowly this thing becomes more shiny than before. One day the nephew of the old man came to the waste station, as a college student at that time, he knew more, and after seeing this thing, he felt that it was not an ordinary copper block, so he took the grain on the paper to the school to find an expert for identification.
The official seal of the Jin Dynasty's "Complete Yan Yong" era
At that time, I found Professor Zhang Taixiang, an archaeologist and a special lecturer of the Department of Archaeology, and after some serious comparison, Professor Zhang believed that these lines should be "nine folds of seal characters". According to the university student's description of the seal, Professor Zhang felt that it was most likely a seal from the Jin Dynasty.
In order to determine his judgment, the student also rushed back to try to get the seal, but the seal was not properly preserved, and the old man's grandson even tied the seal to the tail of the puppy and dragged it. When the old man learned that this copper block may be a cultural relic, he also cared about how much it was worth, and was reluctant to hand over the seal, thinking that it was his own thing. Later, experts identified that this was an official seal of the Jin Dynasty's "Complete Yan Yong" era, but there are not many surviving histories of the Jin Dynasty, so some mysteries of this seal cannot be solved.
summary
In the eyes of experts, this seal needs to be properly preserved, and the old man believes that this is his own thing, and people's awareness of cultural relics was not high at that time. In the end, under the persuasion of experts and the nephew of the old man, and the bonus was given as encouragement, the old man handed over the seal to the state. This seal of the Mysterious River Mouke is now in the collection of the Heilongjiang Museum and is a very precious cultural relic related to the Jin Dynasty.
