Hearing Gao Chao say this, the fat man was stunned, so he quickly used his mobile phone to shine a picture of the seemingly ordinary canvas bag and looked at it carefully.

I saw this long canvas bag standing in the corner of the wall, steady, almost half a person high, and the surface of the bag was army green, and it was covered with dust, it seemed that it had been placed here for a while.

The fat man slowly leaned over and wanted to carry the bag with his hand, but Gao Chao hurriedly said, "Don't move, let me come." ”

The fat man was taken aback by Gao Chao, quickly withdrew his hand, and then watched Gao Chao come forward.

I saw Gao Chao carefully holding the two ends of the canvas bag with both hands, as expected, the canvas bag was quite heavy, it seemed that it did contain something, and then Gao Chao gently put the canvas bag on the ground, and carefully observed it, before carefully pulling the zipper on the canvas bag with his hand.

Slowly, Gao Chao unzipped it, and under the faint light of the mobile phone, the contents of the canvas bag were about to be revealed.

At this moment, Gao Chao and the fat man both held their breath, only to see that in the backpack, a little cold metallic luster was reflected, which made Gao Chao a little dumbfounded.

At this time, the fat man was on the side, pretending to be nervous and asked, "Lao Gao, these are all your family's guns, right?" ”

Gao Chao sighed and scolded helplessly: "Get out!" ”

It turned out that there were no firearms in this canvas bag that made Gao Chao so cautious, but only some oiled steel pipes, about four minutes thick, which looked new and not old or old, and there were really a lot of them one by one.

Gao Chao looked at these steel pipes and shook his head, and said that this time he was a disgrace in front of the fat man, and he would inevitably have to be used as a joke by the fat man in the future, and he felt a little depressed in his heart, but he thought about it again, and felt a little strange, why so many steel pipes should be packed in such a canvas bag, you know, this kind of long barrel-shaped army green canvas bag is definitely used for guns, Gao Chao has seen it in the army.

He recalled, it should have been assigned a task to go to the company's warehouse to sort out the materials, he saw such a bag in the old materials at the bottom of the box, the bag was filled with brand new 81 automatic rifles, also called Bayi bars, all of which were left for combat readiness materials a long time ago, this kind of canvas bag is just loaded with five Bayi bars in each bag, it is said that if the soldiers carry it, it is not a problem to have a shoulder and a bag, at that time, Gao Chao also personally carried this kind of bag, try his physical strength, So he was still very impressed with this kind of bag.

Since he was impressed, Gao Chao thought that he would not be mistaken, and immediately felt that the steel pipes contained in this bag should be a little bit said.

Thinking so, he pulled out a steel pipe from his backpack and held it in his hand to observe it carefully.

The fat man had already stood up at this time, thinking about going to the big rat that almost turned him into a eunuch to take revenge, and when he saw Gao Chao holding a steel pipe in a daze, he thought about burying Gao Chao two more words.

So he stood at the door of the bathroom and said with a smile: "Yo, tall young master, are you going to change your career to collect waste?" How much is a pound of scrap iron now? Your pocket treasure is worth more than two hundred dollars, right? ”

As soon as Gao Chao heard that the fat man was squeezing himself again, he was angry, scolded "get out" and stood up, and poked the fat man's ass with the steel pipe in his hand, and the fat man grabbed the steel pipe with his hand with a smile, and snatched it from Gao Chao's hand with a twist.

The fat man held the steel pipe and said a little proudly: "Lao Gao, you, who have been a soldier for two years, why is your strength not as good as mine?" I think you're getting old and decrepit, and now that you're married, how can you ...... in the future?"

The fat man held the steel pipe and spoke, but suddenly stopped, and at this moment his eyes fell on the steel pipe in his hand, but there was no trace of a smile on his originally smiling face, but there was a puzzled look on his face.

Gao Chao was also joking with the fat man, but when he saw the fat man turn his face at this moment, he also felt strange, so he whispered to the fat man: "Fat man, what's the situation?" ”

"Shh The fat man waved his hand at this moment, and actually made a silent gesture to Gao Chao, Gao Chao was stunned, and said in his heart that this fat man is rarely so serious, how can he see such a steel pipe today, and there is such a big reaction.

Thinking like this in his heart, Gao Chao had no choice but to look at the fat man and stop making a sound.

At this time, the fat man turned the steel pipe over and looked at it again, especially the two ends of the steel pipe, and then he quickly ran back to the long canvas bag and squatted down, and pulled out a few steel pipes from the bag to see, and finally he even lifted the canvas bag with his hand at once, shook it off, and poured out all the steel pipes inside.

This poured out, Gao Chao could see clearly, and at the bottom of the bag, there were some thicker, cylindrical metal pipes......

"Luoyang shovel?" Gao Chao shouted out as soon as he spoke, and then quickly ran over and squatted down.

It turned out that the metal pipes that were poured out of the bag at the end turned out to be the shovel heads of some Luoyang shovels.

Luoyang shovel, of course Gao Chao recognizes, not only Gao Chao, but also the entire antique industry is recognized by individuals.

Regarding the Luoyang shovel, there is even such a limerick poem in the clear water pond in Changsha: "There is Luoyang first and then there is a shovel, and there is a shovel to break into Chang'an, and the eight hundred tombs in Chang'an City have long been pierced by the Luoyang shovel." From this, it can be seen how important this Luoyang shovel is to the tomb robbers.

Legend has it that this Luoyang shovel is invented by Luoyang people, the inventor is named Li Yazi, he is a tomb robber, he usually robs tombs for a living, one day this Li Yazi went to Mengjin County near Mapo Village to catch the market, turned for a long time and was tired and hungry, then found a bun shop on the side of the road to rest, thinking about eating a few buns for lunch, but he sat in the bun shop but no one paid attention to him, he found that the owner of the bun shop was busy working, making holes in the ground, ready to bury a long wooden stake into the ground, so as to hang up the shop signs of the bun shop to solicit business.

The boss made a hole in the ground, but Li Yazi could see it on the side, because the tool used by the owner of the bun shop to make a hole aroused his interest, and he saw that the boss was holding a thing in his hand, which was like a semi-circular small iron bucket, and every time he poked it on the ground, that thing could bring up a lot of soil, which made Li Yazi, who was extremely experienced in tomb robbery, immediately realize that this thing may be easier to operate than the shovel used to dig graves and dig graves, and it is very labor-saving and convenient, if you use it to explore the location of the ancient tomb, the efficiency will definitely be greatly increased.

So Li Yazi was inspired by this, so he found a blacksmith in Luoyang, this blacksmith is named Chen Yinwa, and the two of them invented the famous Luoyang shovel after further improvement.

Today, this Luoyang shovel has existed for nearly a hundred years, but its use is still enduring, not only the tomb robber to use the corpse toucher, even the archaeological scientists also have to use, even in the world, Luoyang shovel has become a symbol of Chinese archaeology, in 1978, when the Chinese archaeological delegation visited Albania, it was presented with a handful of exquisite Luoyang shovel to the Albanian government, it is conceivable that the Luoyang shovel in the minds of the Chinese people what is the status.

So when the cylindrical metal pipe, which looked like half a small bucket, fell out, Gao Chao immediately recognized such a thing.

That's right, this thing is the Luoyang shovel.

Gao Chao and the fat man didn't expect that what was put in this long canvas bag turned out to be a complete set of Luoyang shovels.

At this moment, I saw the fat man holding one of the shovel heads with his hand, and his mouth "tsk", and then he exclaimed and said: "Lao Gao, look at it, the workmanship of this shovel head is simply amazing, look at this ...... again"

As he spoke, the fat man pointed to the back of the shovel again for Gao Chao to see.

Gao Chao looked at it by the light of the mobile phone, and found that there was a small steel seal on the back of the shovel head, with two words written on it: Chen Ji.

Gao Chao glanced at the fat man, and the fat man said: "Lao Gao, do you see it, it's awesome, Chen Ji, this is to say that this set of shovels is from Luoyang Chen Ji Iron Shop, this kind of shovel costs hundreds of thousands, the key is that there is money and nowhere to buy, this kind of thing is extinct on the market, this is definitely the best in Luoyang shovel!" ”

Compared with the fat man, Gao Chao doesn't know so much about the Luoyang shovel, and he just knows it, and the fat man is different, the fat man's family is a corpse toucher from the eight lines of the outside, and the Luoyang shovel is their family's tool for eating, which is of course an absolute expert, although the fat man did not go to the inverted bucket to touch the corpse like his father, but he can't wait to play with the Luoyang shovel as a toy since he was a child, and he is naturally familiar with all kinds of Luoyang shovels.

So at this moment, when Gao Chao heard the fat man say this, he was already convinced of the fat man's words, but Gao Chao suddenly felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this matter, so he was a little suspicious: "Fat man, how can such a good set of Luoyang shovels appear in Mr. Xia's house?" ”

The fat man looked at Gao Chao and felt that this question was indeed difficult to answer, so he thought for a while before saying: "Lao Gao, you don't know, such a good Luoyang shovel must not be available on the market now, even before the liberation in the early years, I heard that Luoyang Chen Ji Iron Shop only accepts order business, and they are all traded in the black market, as far as I know, there are a total of ten sets of Luoyang shovels made by Chen Ji Iron Shop, basically all of them are left in the thirteen families, and our old Zhao family is also one of the thirteen families, Of course, we have one at home, but now the bottom of the box has been pressed, and no one has touched it for twenty or thirty years......"

Speaking of this, the fat man narrowed his eyes and whispered to Gao Chao and continued: "Lao Gao, I mean that this kind of Chen Ji's Luoyang shovel is definitely not something that can be bought with money, and it is definitely not made for whoever wants to customize it, this kind of thing is a symbol of identity and status, in the thirteen families in the old days, if anyone wants a set, they have to go to Chen Ji Iron Shop to ask others to make a set according to seniority, so this thing definitely has a way to come, it is not good to say, unless it is stolen from someone's house, it is impossible to ...... here"

As the fat man spoke, as if he had suddenly thought of something, he pouted and continued: "Unless...... Unless this old Mr. Xia is also a member of the Thirteen Family......"
