The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer - Chapter 2091
Latest website: Kuba-Lum was taken to the hotel room building on the east side to rest. Here guys go to prepare. The boss wants to go to Bunia on a whim to play archeology. This arrangement is definitely a big project!
That is no better than the peaceful handover of the city of Goma. A few days ago, thousands of Ugandan troops were directly blown up, and by the way, many local residents’ shack nearby were destroyed.
The shock wave of the bomb is too fierce, and accidental injury is inevitable.
Later, with the arrival of the joint forces, several local armed forces were also killed, and the place was basically stabilized in the past two days.
Those who should be rushed drove away, and those who should be purged have also been purged. The few remaining opponents who slip through the net have also been unable to overcome the big waves.
It is best to dare to show your head, so that it can be cleaned thoroughly!
Dangerous elements are only a small problem, and the big trouble comes from the infrastructure: Compared with the high-end hotels in Goma City and the lakes and mountains, Bunia is too simple.
Time is tight, so you have to prepare quickly.
Guan Xingquan had no objections at all, and he immediately left to make arrangements, which made Andre feel a little strange.
Is that coin so special?
The former KGB colonel also asked halfway along the way, and Guan Xingquan told him: “If other ancient Chinese coins appear in Black Africa, it doesn’t need to be too much of a fuss. It may even be left here by modern people.
You see, Anan usually carries a Hongwu Tongbao, which is used to ward off evil spirits. If it is lost in Botswana, it must be said that it was Botswana that arrived in the Ming Dynasty, or that Zheng He’s fleet had lost personnel. Been to Botswana?
That’s called bullshit.
But that money is different. Except for the one in Anan’s hand, there are 30 in the whole world. They were all discovered at the same time and still in one place.
Moreover, in the eyes of Chinese history researchers, since the Tang Dynasty until 1970, although they knew that there was Kaiyuan Tongbao money, they all thought it was gilt money until 1970.
Therefore, it appears in Black Africa, and it can only be here in the Tang Dynasty that there is no other possibility!”
Andre knows what China Datang and Kaiyuan Tongbao are, and has seen the owner’s vast collection of gold coins. He has never seen a small gold coin that can make him react like this.
Now I understand that it is not a question of economic value at all. Obviously, this is a great discovery for the history of China’s ancient foreign exchanges, and it may even help the group’s African strategy.
…
Charlize Theron also cannot fully understand why her brother is so happy. Although she has learned a lot of Chinese history and culture, she is still young and lacks accumulation.
A 20-year-old South African white girl, she only saw people from China Mainland at the age of 13.
She knows the history and culture of China best in the family, and this Kaiyuan Tongbao gold coin is exactly what her brother did not collect before.
Later generations of imitation of “Jin Kaiyuan” can occasionally be available on the market. Of course, this “post generation” does not refer to the modern era, but the era after the Tang Dynasty except for the “modern modern”.
Those “Golden Kaiyuan” Zhang Nan could get it, but felt unnecessary.
I have seen the authentic “Golden Kaiyuan” in the Shaanxi Provincial Museum: those made of gold in the imitations of later generations are completely unpleasant compared to the authentic ones in the museum.
Those “Jin Kaiyuan” of a certain age on the market are most likely to be imitations of the Qing Dynasty.
As for the earlier ones, there are very occasional gilt goods, and it may even be Tang Dynasty products, but
I didn’t specialize in collecting ancient Chinese coins, and I didn’t want everything to the degree.
Zhang Nan also patiently explained Charlie’s question.
“Kaiyuan Tongbao has gold and silver coins, which were thought to be gilt gold. Until 1970, the Hejia Village cellar was unearthed. There were 30 such gold Kaiyuan in one of the silver boxes.
They are all rewards from the palace, and no one will use it as money. It is estimated that those owners either treat them as treasures, wear them with them to ward off evil spirits, or simply show off their status.”
If you have a gold Kaiyuan on your body, others will guess whether this one has something to do with the palace?
Even if you don’t have a relationship with the palace, you can get rewards in the palace, it is also very face, and can be used as a status symbol.
This is rewarded with gold and silver money, which appeared in the Han Dynasty at the latest in China, and it was even more popular in the Tang Dynasty to reward gold and silver.
At the meeting of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Chengtian Gate in Chang’an City was the place where the emperor issued edicts, pardons, or held ceremonies of the court.
Emperor Xuanzong of Tang often held banquets on the Chengtian Gate to entertain his subjects. On some festive days, he would throw gold and silver money downstairs as rewards, forming a famous money club.
At that time, the women in the palace often played games of tossing gold and silver in order to relieve loneliness and kill time.
“. Many experts studied from the literature and concluded that the divination and game activities related to gold, silver and money in the Tang court were the most popular in the Tang Dynasty.
The cellars of Hejia Village unearthed in 1970 were palace artifacts, so the batch of gold and silver Kaiyuan Tongbao was probably a relic of Xuanzong’s society.
I saw a few of the Jin Kaiyuan pieces in the museum. They are exactly the same as this one, but this one is slightly worn. ”
At this point, Zhang Nan walked to the entrance of the lounge.
At this time, the two of them were already on the second floor with a terrace outside. Looking at the night view outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, Zhang Nan said, “Who brought it here at that time?
A small country envoy from Africa to Datang?
Or a Datang person living overseas? ”
Charlie walked up to him, next to him, “Brother, did anyone from the Tang Dynasty come to Africa at that time?”
“Yes, it is said that in the earlier Eastern Jin Dynasty, there should have been Chinese people in Black Africa, but they may not have returned to their hometown alive.
In the Tang Dynasty, after the Battle of Tarros, the famous Tang Border Army prisoners traveled to the Middle East and North Africa, and later returned to Datang.
I forgot what that person’s name was, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, but his footprint is not particularly unusual. North Africa would have long been the territory of Arabs. There are not too many obstacles to the traffic from the Middle East to North Africa, and it is not a concept to reach Black Africa at all. .
Before that person, there must be people from the Tang Dynasty. I mean, the Han people in Datang had arrived in North Africa.
By the way, don’t forget that I have dug out Chinese bronze tripods in the pyramids of Sudan. It’s much earlier.
If it were those Hu ethnic merchants under the Datang Empire in the Western Regions, it would not be surprising for those who had been to North Africa at that time.”
“Brother, am I a bullshit?”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Nan turned around and scraped her nose gently, without speaking.
No need to speak, because Zhang Nan heard her say: “Don’t care how you look, if a person really thinks in his heart and recognizes who he is, then he is who he is!”
She knew who she was, that was enough.
