"The water is in the tank and you have to drink it yourself and scoop it yourself, but you have to leave immediately after drinking the water. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

As he spoke, Tie Dan snatched the banknote he stuffed into the crack of the door as if he was afraid that Qin Fan would regret it, and closed the door vigilantly after letting him in.

"Thank you, fellow."

With a smile on his face, Qin Fan scooped a large bowl of water from the water tank, and drank it with a clattering neck.

After drinking enough water, Qin Fan burped beautifully, squinted at Tie Dan with a vigilant face, and chatted with him without a word, "Fellow, I heard that the village has suffered a disaster recently, is there such a thing?" ”

"Hmph, it was the rainstorm a few days ago that caused a lot of trouble, and the mountains were washed away, but fortunately we ran fast, otherwise we would have been buried."

"No wonder I saw some houses in the village destroyed when I came, but I've heard that someone seems to have dug something out of the dirt washed down from the mountain, do you know that?"

Maybe it was Qin Fan's hundred-yuan bill that played a role, Tie Dan patted his chest with a rough neck and said, "There is nothing I don't know about this Yu Jiagou." ”

"After the rainstorm, the rocks that had washed down from the mountain destroyed the road into the village, so the village chief told us to dig in the earth. Who knew that this shovel went down, and hey, he actually dug out an iron lump. At that time, we didn't know what this iron lump was, but later we learned that it was an antique, and it was worth a lot. ”

Tie Dan couldn't hide things in his heart, and he immediately spoke out when Qin Fan was so provoked.

"This iron lump is the bronze you just mentioned?"

Tie Dan just wanted to answer, but suddenly his brain turned as if he realized something, and his face changed and he said angrily, "Why are you asking so much, hurry up after drinking water, if someone sees me coming to my house, it will be troublesome." ”

Seeing that Tie Dan was going to drive people out, Qin Fan hurriedly said, "Don't worry, fellow, let's be honest, I'm in the antique business, as long as the price of things is good, you will definitely be satisfied." ”

"I don't have any antiques, and I haven't dug up any bronzes, so you should leave quickly."

Seeing Tie Dan's nervous appearance, Qin Fan was even more convinced that he must have dug up a bronze in the mountains, but he didn't dare to admit it because he was afraid that the people in the village would know about it.

Thinking of this, Qin Fan sat on the stone pier with his butt and said unhurriedly, "Fellow, do you think this will work, you let me take a look at things first, whether you buy it or not, as long as you let me take a look, the five hundred yuan is yours." ”

Qin Fan opened the black leather bag in his hand in front of Tie Dan, took out five hundred yuan from it, and slapped it in front of him very boldly.

"This ......"

Tie Dan's eyes looked directly at the stack of banknotes in front of him, and after hesitating for a long time, he couldn't help but say, "This is what you said, it will cost five hundred at a glance, but you are not allowed to regret it." ”

"No problem, as long as you see that thing, the five hundred yuan is yours." Qin Fan nodded with an oath, and set up the iron egg step by step.

Then, Tie Dan cautiously locked the door, walked to the dusty kitchen, tinkered under the stove for a while, dug up something, and sneakily hugged Qin Fan.

Qin Fan was immediately happy when he saw it, this iron egg would hide things, if he didn't say it, even if he turned this yard upside down, I am afraid he would not be able to find that bronze.

This bronze vessel was wrapped in a broken linen cloth, and when Qin Fan opened the broken linen cloth, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a clumsy and generous bull head bronze statue appeared.

Qin Fan's gaze circled around this bull head bronze statue, and under the gaze of the treasure pupils, he could clearly see that this bronze statue was covered with a layer of intense purple treasure light.

Zun is a kind of medium and large wine container in the Shang and Zhou dynasties. The shape of the bronze statue is circled and footed, generally divided into square belly or round belly, with a long neck and an open mouth, and a large caliber.

Bronze statues were popular from the Shang Dynasty to the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the most famous of them is the Siyang Fangzun in the collection of the National Museum.

Siyang Fangzun is the largest of the Shang Dynasty bronze statues found so far, with a side length of 52.4 cm, a height of 58.3 cm, and a weight of 34.5 kg.

In addition to the general Fang Zun, there was also a special bronze Zun in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, called the Sacrificial Zun. It is to cast the image of cows, sheep, tigers, elephants, dolphins, birds, geese and other animals.

And Qin Fan's hand this ox head bronze statue is a sacrificial statue, dignified and elegant, graceful and majestic, it should be a wine ritual vessel used in the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

"You can hurry up, if you let the village chief know that I have this thing hidden in my house, I will definitely come and take it away."

After receiving the money, Tie Dan urged Qin Fan with a nervous face, for fear that at this time, Village Chief Yu and they would break in and confiscate this bronze statue.

It's just that Qin Fan didn't seem to hear the sound of the iron egg, and he looked intently appreciating this rare bull head bronze statue in his hand.

Judging from the casting process and the ornamentation on the bronze statue, this bull head bronze statue has superb craftsmanship and gorgeous ornamentation, which is definitely a rare boutique in the bronze statue, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a national treasure.

After half a ring, Qin Fan breathed a long sigh of relief and looked up at the nervous Tie Dan, and said with a smile, "This thing is not bad, I don't know where you dug it out." ”

"Why do you ask this?" Tie Dan's face changed as if he realized that something was wrong, snatched the bronze from Qin Fan's hand, and glared at him with a vigilant face.

"Hehe, I don't mean anything, I'm just curious." Qin Fan felt Tie Dan's thoughts, and said unhurriedly, "Aren't you digging antiques just to sell them for money, don't you want to know how much this bronze statue is worth?" ”

Hearing this, Tie Dan's heart felt as if it was being scratched by a cat, and it was itchy.

As Qin Fan said, he went to the mountains to dig antiques just to sell them for money. Who knew that after digging up, the village chief said that this thing was a cultural relic and could not be sold, so he hid this bronze artifact, thinking of finding an opportunity to sell it secretly.

But the trouble is that he didn't know the price of the bronzes and didn't know how to sell them.

"Tell me how much this thing is worth?" Tie Dan couldn't wait to ask.

"If you want me to tell you, you can do it, but you have to tell me where this thing came from."

Seeing that the big fish had already been hooked, Qin Fan was not in a hurry, and waited for him to speak calmly.

Tie Dan hesitated for a long time before he said to Qin Fan mysteriously, "I dug this thing in the deep mountains in the northwest, don't tell anyone else." ”

"Where exactly?"

Yujiagou is surrounded by mountains, and trying to find out the tomb with this clue alone is simply looking for a needle in a haystack.

Tie Dan told Qin Fan twice about the location of the excavated bronze, and asked impatiently, "I have already said what I should say, how much is this antique worth?" ”

"The ox head bronze statue in your hand should be a wine ritual vessel in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, with superb casting technology and ancient and generous shape, which can be said to be a priceless treasure."

"Priceless?" Tie Dan was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Qin Fan meant, "Then it has to have a price." ”

Qin Fan shook his head and explained, "This bronze of yours is a national treasure-level cultural relic, stealing and selling a national treasure is a felony, and if you are caught, you will definitely go to prison, who do you say would dare to bid you." ”

Qin Fan didn't mean to scare Tie Dan by saying this, if Tie Dan really sold this bronze statue to a cultural relics dealer, I am afraid that he would be arrested by the public security the next day.

A farmer like Tie Dan, who doesn't know a few big characters, has a weak concept of the legal system, if Qin Fan hadn't reminded him, he was afraid that he would really have broken the law in a daze, and it would be too late to regret it when the time came.

"Don't, big brother, can't I sell this antique to you cheaper, you can just give two money."

Hearing Qin Fan's words, Tie Dan was completely panicked. This antique can't be eaten, and if it can't be sold, it's better to have a stone on the side of the road, and it still takes up space to hide it at home.

Qin Fan ignored him, this bronze was probably dug out of the tomb and belonged to the unearthed cultural relics. If it is involved, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles, and Qin Fan doesn't want to cause this kind of trouble for no reason.

It's just that he was so frightened by Qin Fan that Tie Dan didn't sleep all night and thought about it all night. Early the next morning, he took the bronze to the house of the head of Yu Village and handed it over to the Cultural Relics Bureau, but these are all later words.

After getting the clues, Professor Guo and the others immediately decided to go into the mountains to explore the location of the tomb. Due to the complex terrain in the mountains, Village Chief Yu found a guide for Professor Guo, and the next day the group packed up their equipment and set off towards the location of the ancient tomb.
