In the first few years, Harbin's antique markets were all outside the road, and they all supported their own stalls, and there was no system. The old grandson is very persistent, every day from stall to stall, a few nagging cooked, he took out the beads for them to see, some were noncommittal, some were depreciated to be worthless, and some teased him that this is a peerless treasure, which is worth a lot of money, let him have a good life to collect, and don't show his wealth. The old grandson even wondered if he had lost his eyes that day, because the beads on the workers' wrists were scattered, and then he picked one up himself, maybe it was an ordinary crystal or even a handicraft? The old man heard that there is a department called the Quality and Technical Supervision Bureau that can conduct appraisal, one is that the appraisal fee is too high, and the other is afraid that the origin of the beads will be confiscated again, and he will be detained by the police again, then the gain will outweigh the loss.

At noon one day, the angry old grandson filled his stomach in a noodle restaurant, and there was a dispute between the opposite "Xun Gu Xuan", and the two young men twisted a man in his 50s and scolded. Lao Sun Tou is a person who loves to join in the fun, he looked at the outside and played happily, quickly wiped his mouth twice and ran out to see the excitement, it turned out that this young man sold something in this Xun Gu Xuan a while ago, and only after going back did he know that things were sold cheaply, and he came to the boss to talk about it, and the boss said that this is the rule, and the money and goods are clear, if you two hit me today, I will call the police. The two lads were in a hurry, one slapped him, the other kicked him, and then the two ran away.

The boss was kicked, holding his stomach and squatting on the ground, the old grandson was short, and he had been blocked out of the crowd, and he couldn't squeeze in, at this time he was stretching his neck outside the crowd to watch the excitement, and suddenly the crowd dispersed, and a young man rushed out, and then he was knocked to the ground by the young man.

Fortunately, the old grandson has been working all year round, and his skills are not bad, and when he fell to the ground, he hugged the young man's legs. The old grandson, who had worked hard all his life, pressed the young man to the ground, and relied on how the kid kicked him, but he didn't let go, and the boss quickly reported to the police when he saw this, and the young man not only didn't want the money back, but lost more than 8,000 yuan to the boss.

"Thank you, brother, if it weren't for you catching people, I would have been beaten in vain, this is a little bit of personal thought, you take it." Anyway, the boss didn't let Lao Sun Tou go, let him into the "Xun Gu Xuan", and took out 2,000 yuan and stuffed it into Lao Sun Tou's hands. The old grandson took a few polite words, the old grandson looked at the antique in this "Xun Gu Xuan", a row of glass cabinets are full of porcelain plates and bottles, several glass cabinets are placed with coins and ancient jade, all neatly placed, on the side of the cabinet, there are a lot of ancient books, calligraphy and paintings, he does not know a basket of big words, and naturally he can't see the truth or falsehood.

The boss gave the old man tea, and when he saw that the old man was looking at it with relish behind his back, he asked, "My brother is also in this industry?" The old man hurriedly said, "What can I do, I am a farmer, no, dig out an object from the ground, I want to find someone to see how much it is worth, my son is in college, isn't this worrying about tuition, it is not easy for our village to train a college student, I just smash the pot and sell iron." "Lao Sun Tou put out the words he had thought of before, it is true that his son is going to college, but Lao Sun Tou's family is far from smashing pots and selling iron, he also wants to win the sympathy of others when he says this, and he will not be deceived by occupying the height of reason, which is also a little clever of Lao Sun Tou.

The boss smiled after hearing this, "Yo, brother, you really asked, I'm looking for Gu Xuan to sell antiques, why don't you take it out and let me open my eyes?" ”

The old man turned his back, took out the beads from his underwear pocket and handed them to the boss, who looked at it with a magnifying glass for a long time, rubbed it again, sniffed it again, and his expression gradually became solemn.

"Brother, this is an object in the Qing Palace, how can you have it in your land? Do you do dirt work? ”

"Dirt work?" The old grandson was stunned.

"It's just digging graves and robbing graves" As soon as the boss spoke, the old grandson was frightened, "Don't talk nonsense, my family has been farming for generations, and I don't have the courage to have this idea." ”

The boss looked the old grandson up and down for a long time, and then asked the old grandson about his hometown and the location of the discovery, and the old grandson only said that it was near Erlong Mountain, and the boss looked at it carefully for a long time.

"This thing is not a pearl, it is a Sui pearl imitated by Hetian jade, of course, it is not as rare as Sui Zhu, this thing is just a kind of jewelry like wearing it, it can be embedded in a hat, it can also be embedded in a belt and clothes. The general beads are transparent and white, but that is not the top grade, you look at this, the middle of the green silk into the flocculent, this is called 'dragon's eye', only the royal prince can be used as decoration, so this thing can not appear in the commoner's home. ”

The boss paused and said, "I heard a legend, when Feng Yuxiang forced the last emperor of the palace Pu Yi, he was limited to three hours to move out of the Forbidden City, Pu Yi packed almost all the valuable treasures, and it took nearly 100 cars to move out of the Forbidden City, and then Pu Yi was displaced, this batch of treasures did not know where to go, in 1932, Pu Yi became a puppet emperor in Manchukuo in Northeast China, some people speculated that this batch of treasures he brought to the Northeast, Pu Yi was controlled by the Japanese, presumably this batch of treasures, must be hidden, Some people say that this treasure was obtained by Zhang Zuolin, the king of the Northeast, and it is precisely because of this treasure that his Northeast Army can lead other warlords in arms. Zhang Zuolin is a shrewd person, according to legend, he divided the treasure and arms into several parts, distributed in the major mountains and forests in the northeast, even if one day he lost power, he dug up the treasure nearby, and then made a comeback. The Erlong Mountain you are talking about should be one of them, if you can find this bead, you will definitely be able to find other treasures. The more the boss talked, the more excited he became, shouting that he would go home with the old man, hire someone to dig for treasures, and then divide it equally with the old grandson.

The more the old grandson listened, the cooler his heart became, it seemed that this bead was a treasure, but the other treasures had already been swept away by the Japanese. This trick of repairing the plank road and secretly crossing Chen Cang made it so good that the old grandson was so angry that he beat his chest and cried.

The boss listened to the reason, and thought for a while and said, "Brother, you can't say that, at least it proves that this legend is true, the treasure of this mountain is gone, and there must be other mountains." "Even if there is, I can't touch it, I'm so old, where to look for it, the Northeast is so big, I can't find it in my life, forget it." The old man stomped his foot to leave, and the boss hurriedly said, "Do you sell your beads?" I'll give 10,000. The old man shook his head and said, "Forget it, leave a thought for yourself." The old grandson shook his head and went back to his hometown. This was also seven or eight years ago, and now that the old man's son has started a family, the boss of Xun Guxuan has never contacted him again, and the bead of the old grandson has really become a thought.

When Lao Lu and I heard this, the wine woke up, which was too bizarre, we heard it with anger and blood, Lao Lu scolded, Lao Sun took a sip of wine, and fell asleep on the kang, still holding the bead in his hand.

We also ate almost, and his wife came to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, "Don't listen to his nonsense, he is a farmer all his life, and he wants to make a fortune all his life." The old lady said this, but she carefully put away the beads, and packed another room for us to live in, we wanted to go back, the old lady said that the mountain is dark at night, and there are all kinds of wild beasts in the mountain, you two are not afraid of getting lost? Sleep here, and I'll find you a triple jumper tomorrow morning to take you out of the mountain.

The two of us thought about it, after lying down, Lao Lu scolded his mother for a long time, and fell asleep when the wine swelled, but I couldn't sleep at all, my mind became clearer and clearer, a strange thing that haunted in childhood, and because of the old man's words, I seemed to have a little clue.
