Chapter 225
In fact, we made a mistake before coming here. We originally thought that the Xixia bluestone sculpture was dug out of the ground, but we didn't expect that it was used as a manhole cover, and Uncle Hu Lu accidentally picked it up.
It was this thing that attracted us to Yinchuan.
I guess it's what I thought. If we can dig up Xixia tombs this time, we will definitely make money, because there are too few cultural relics in Xixia and too few tombs. Even the Xixia collection in Yinchuan Museum is mainly made of gravel carvings. Gravel bricks are mainly used, and there are some high-quality ones, but not many.
I asked the boss what to do next, should we continue to search for things in the well or...
He glanced at the dry well and said thoughtfully: "Let's have a look. Apart from pieces of rotten iron, there might be something valuable."
I nodded and said yes, if the thief doesn't go short, I will always feel at a loss if I don't find something valuable.
He nodded and said, "Then, Yazai, should you go down?"
"No, no, no," Douyazai shook his head desperately and said, "I was just bragging, I don't want to do it anymore, I just trampled on 80 or not 100 dead people's bones, Yunfeng is brave, I think Yunfeng is still It’s more appropriate to go down.”
"Yunfeng, what do you think?" Dou Sprout asked me.
If I call you a coward, I'll do it.
Send me down with a rope, Dou Sprout shouted and threw the cyclone shovel down.
Although there are many dead people's bones underground, it does not smell bad, it just has a sour and moldy smell.
A few shovels were able to dig out a few bones. After digging for more than half an hour, I did make new discoveries.
Dou Sprout was so impatient and careless that he exposed this thing.
I picked it up and wiped it on my sleeve.
This is a piece of jade, about half the size of an adult's palm. The jade flesh is green and yellow. Although the carving is simple with only a few strokes, the carving looks like a jade bear.
Jade bear from the Western Xia period.
Although the material of this thing is not Hetian white jade, it is also made of fine local sapphire. It is warm and moist, slightly oily, and it is a good material. If you meet a buyer who likes ancient local jade, you can easily sell it for several thousand or a small one. Wan's problem is not big.
I blew the dust off the jade bear, put it in my pocket, and patted it twice.
More than 700 years ago, if these people were killed by the Mongols, there should be some things left behind. They ate meat seven hundred years ago. I can lick the bowl seven hundred years later. It would be too much to leave it alone. wasted.
As expected, after rummaging carefully, I found another chopstick-shaped object with hairpins. I initially determined that this object should be part of the headdress of Xixia women. This object did not appear on the heads of women in the Song Dynasty. The steps are delicate, but if you do some craftsmanship, you can probably sell them for a thousand yuan.
I was addicted to digging and wiped my sweat. I believed there must be something big down there. There are one or two Xixia soldier waist badges with Xixia inscriptions on them.
I stood down in the well and discussed it with the leader, and finally decided to clean up the well. I don’t know how deep the soil is, and maybe all the big and good goods are hidden under the well. In this way, even if we can't find Blackwater City in the end, with these and the Alxa Blood Agate rough stone, we have a guarantee for this trip to Yinchuan.
