Chapter 199: A Bunch of Rags?

These days, Gray Fangs frolic in the back mountains all day long, mainly to practice hunting skills, and often send the prey they caught to Su Ming. Sometimes it's a little hare, sometimes it's half a mountain mouse, and even wild fruit or something.

These things are of little use, and the barbecue is still quite good, so Su Ming often eats game during this time, and the food is a little crooked.

The piece of copper in front of me was dirty, it looked like it was in tatters, it couldn't be eaten, it couldn't be sold, and I didn't know where the dogs found it.

Su Ming walked into the water pavilion with the copper block, turned on the faucet to wash the mud on it, and by the light, he saw that the copper block was an arc-shaped thing, rusty, with some blurred patterns on it, it seemed that it was a fragment, maybe a small piece on a certain vessel.

"You picked it up from the back mountain?" Su Ming smiled and asked Wangcai.

Wangcai stuck out his tongue and nodded, Su Ming muttered, "It won't be an antique", and then casually put the fragments on the table.

How can there be so many antiques in the world that a few dogs can pick up antiques by running around? Besides, there are many imitations in these years, even modern furniture has a lot of antique, and it is not too unusual to find this kind of fragment similar to ancient bronze in the mountains.

After playing a game on the Internet for a while, I fell asleep.

Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, he heard the sound of claws scratching from the door panel, and with a creaky creak, Su Ming rubbed his eyes and got out of bed and opened the door of the water pavilion.

"I'll go, you've moved the dump?"

Su Ming was taken aback by the scene in front of him. At the door of the water pavilion, there was a pile of broken porcelain bowls and rotten bronze utensils stained with mud, and the wolf dog brothers still had a rotten rag-like thing in their mouths, guarding in front of this pile of rags, wagging their tails vigorously at Su Ming.

Su Ming felt that something was wrong.

There are no people in the back mountain, where did they get so much garbage that looks like daily necessities? Take a closer look. The 'rag' in the wolfdog brother's mouth looks like a piece of clothing.

Su Ming took the rag clothes from the wolf dog brother's mouth, and there was a rotten smell in his nose, and it was a little foul, he covered his nose and shook twice against the wind. Unfolded it, it was indeed a dress like an ancient robe, with strange embroidery patterns on it, but the clothes had been strictly decayed, and the original appearance could not be seen at all.

Seeing this thing, Su Ming suddenly became a little uneasy. Fortunately, the zoo hadn't opened yet, and there was not a single ghost near the water pavilion, so he hurriedly put those broken plates and bowls or something, and connected them with this tattered clothes. Moved to the water pavilion together.

If it was just one or two pieces of porcelain, or a few pieces of broken copper, it wouldn't be surprising, but it was so unusual to see such a large pile of things in front of you. In particular, they are obviously dug out of the soil, which is even more suspicious!

You must know that the back mountain is a branch of the Qinling Mountains.

The Qinling Mountains can be said to be one of the birthplaces of the entire Chinese nation, the largest 'dragon vein'. Since ancient times, many ancient cities have been built around the Qinling Mountains. Many emperors and generals chose their tombs in the Qinling Mountains.

Even if you are not an emperor or general, there are countless big cities and towns built on the mountain, so there are quite a lot of ancient tombs in the Qinling Mountains, which have not been set foot in most places until today due to their ruggedness and difficulty. Rarely visited, it would not be surprising if something mysterious appeared.

The savage Su Meng was found in the Qinling Mountains.

Su Ming just chuckled in his heart, shouldn't this group of dogs pouting other people's graves!

People of his age have read a lot of novels and movies about tomb robbing, and they immediately thought of tomb robbing expeditions.

But. Tomb robbing sounds exciting, but it's not as interesting as it is in the novel.

After having more contact with Zhao Yun, Su Ming knew that the so-called 'tomb robbery' was actually a dangerous and boring job. Not only are there huge security risks, but the key is that it is not as profitable as imagined.

First of all, the vast majority of the tombs are buried underground, and after hundreds of years, the funerary goods inside have long been dilapidated. Antiques are very important in appearance, and they are also Ming Xuanhua, a complete piece, and a broken or even broken one, the price is very different. For example, the pile of 'rags' in front of me is almost all broken pieces, and this kind of thing, even if it is an antique, is not worth a few dollars.

Secondly, there are not many valuable things in the lower-grade tombs, and a few high-end tombs, the emperor's generals, may be able to find some good things inside, or even the so-called 'artifact national treasure' level, such as Simu Wuding, golden jade clothes or something.

But this kind of thing is priceless and unmarketable, and the real value cannot be estimated at all, but if you buy it secretly, it is difficult to find a buyer, and in the end it may only be a few million, and you have to risk losing your head.

At the level of the twelve beast heads, an auction can sell for hundreds of millions, and most of them are hyped.

I once heard Zhao Yun say an example, a few years ago, there was a group of professional tomb robbers who dug several tombs of the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty, and the burial goods were quite rich, adding up to dozens of pieces, but they also made more than one million and two million, and they were finally caught and sentenced to more than 15 years.

Even if Su Ming is safe and stable now, without doing anything, he can earn tens of millions of dollars a year, and he can't afford to resell cultural relics for the sake of these millions, risking going against the whole country and losing his head.

Zhao Yun is the best example, he is in charge of the museum, and it is very convenient to resell some national treasure-level cultural relics, but Zhao Yun will never do this. Very simply, the money he can make from doing legitimate business far exceeds that of evil crooked ways.

Having said that, what this pile of things in front of him was, Su Ming didn't know. The so-called antiques are just his guesses, maybe just a bunch of useless modern imitations.

"Go, take me to the place where these things are found."

Su Ming was about to follow the wolf dog brothers to the back mountain, and as soon as he went out, the phone rang, it was Zhao Yun calling, saying that there were some winery matters to discuss with him, and asked him if he had time to go over.

Su Ming thought about it, if there is really an ancient tomb or something, he has no experience at all, and it is too dangerous to go rashly, not to mention that he is going smoothly now, he does not expect to make money by reselling cultural relics, and there is no need to commit crimes for a few 'cultural relics', his greatest hope is nothing more than that if he really finds the ancient tomb, he will go on an adventure and play.

So he simply took a bag of 'garbage' and drove to Zhao Yunna, let him identify it, and then see what to do later.
