I guess any normal person would like the word "surprise".
This word is usually used to express the joy caused by suddenly obtaining a desired item or encountering something wonderful without prior knowledge.
This word is definitely a very wonderful word, but if there is too much "surprise", then "joy" will gradually turn into "numbness".
This situation is very appropriate in Mr. Liu's small office.
"Teacher, this coin of mine seems to be a Zhuangquan 40 from the Xinmang period..."
"Ah, teacher, please come and take a look. Is this the legendary Tiancheng Yuanbao? A special treasure among the fifty treasures of Guquan?"
"Oh my god, what did I get? Oh my god! I also got a rare Chongqing Yuanbao..."
......
"Hey, this one is Xiantong Xuanbao, it's boring, it's just a great treasure, it would be great if it was a special treasure..."
"Alas, how come another great treasure has appeared......"
"Although this gilded Tiance Mansion treasure is also a great treasure, it is obviously not comparable to the Chongqing Yuanbao just now."
"It's boring, it's boring..."
From surprise to numbness, you can feel it clearly without looking at their expressions, just by listening to the words they communicate with each other.
There is no way. The appearance of a Helian Bobo Daxia Zhenxing is a surprise, and the appearance of a Daqi Tongbao is also a surprise. However, if special treasures such as "Tiancheng Yuanbao", "Tianxian Tongbao" and "Yingli Tongbao" appear one after another, plus more than 20 first-level treasures approaching 30, anyone would be numb.
In the end, Old Liu, Cai Yi and eight of his disciples worked for a total of one and a half hours before they were able to brush out all thirty-six ancient coins with a hard-bristle brush. Of course, they brushed lightly, stopping only when the inscriptions on the coins were visible.
As cultural heritage protectors of ancient bronzes, these eight students, although young, know that the rust on ancient coins cannot be completely removed and that it is best to remove the rust until the coin text is exposed.
Thirty-six copper coins were placed in two rows on the table. The top row contained eight ancient coins, eight special treasures among the fifty rare ancient coins, and the bottom row contained twenty-eight ancient coins, twenty-eight great treasures among the fifty rare ancient coins. Next to these two rows of ancient coins was Li Shizhen's Dongbi sword.
Even though I felt a little numb when I was brushing the ancient coins just now, but when these thirty-six ancient coins are placed in front of you, with a Li Shizhen's Dongbi sword next to them, anyone who sees it will be excited.
Old Liu's beard was twitching with joy, and Cai Yi beside him was also full of joy. As for Old Liu's eight disciples, they were all excited as if they had taken stimulants, with faces full of uncontrollable pride.
Are you kidding? Here are thirty-six of the fifty legendary ancient coins! Among them, there are eight special treasures. Such a luxurious scene, let alone ordinary ancient coin collectors, even those top ancient coin collectors probably can't come up with such a scene.
"Xiao Yang, you've got a really big bargain! If word gets out, it will be even bigger than the 'Four-Eyed Daqi' coin that Mr. Zhang Shuxun picked up for five hundred dollars!" Old Liu said cheerfully, his tone full of envy.
Cai Yi at the side said with a smile: "More than that, I think the bargain that Xiao Yangzi picked up cannot be said to be unique, but it is definitely unprecedented! Anyway, I have never heard of anyone who can buy 36 of the 50 rare ancient coins with 1,000 yuan at once, and there are 8 special treasures among them, and even the legendary ancient coin Da Qi Tong Bao! Yangzi, your bargain is really amazing!"
Yang Jing said with a smile: "Mr. Liu, Uncle Cai, this is all because of my good luck. If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't have known that the Golden Money Sword was made up of thirty-six treasures, right? So, you two are the biggest contributors to bringing these treasures back to light."
"Haha, you are really good at talking." Old Liu said, stroking his chin with a smile, "Well, it's worth it even if I die tomorrow to be able to see so many ancient springs and precious treasures at once. I'm happy today!"
Cai Yi also said: "Old Liu, look at how we have created two large satellites today. Think about who made this Dongbi Sword and these thirty-six precious Golden Money Swords? Ordinary people don't have such extravagant means!"
Mr. Liu said, "Based on the rust on the two swords, they were buried about a hundred years ago. And judging from the appearance of the thirty-six ancient coins, they were obviously well preserved before they were buried. And they were buried together with the Dongbi Sword. I guess the owner of these two items must have been a great figure in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China."
Liu Lao's only female disciple, Xiao Zheng, suddenly said, "Teacher, I remember when I was researching materials for my graduation thesis, I forgot where I saw this passage. I remember it mentioned Li Shizhen's Dongbi sword, and it seemed to be related to the late Master Qi Gong."
Old Liu was shocked and asked, "Xiao Zheng, think carefully, where did you see it? Can you remember what it was about?"
Xiao Zheng lowered his head and thought for a long time before shaking his head and saying, "I'm sorry, teacher. I was busy looking up information at the time. I can't remember where I saw that passage, and I can't remember the content of that passage. I just vaguely remember that Master Qi Gong mentioned the Dongbi Sword before his death."
