Lin Sanqi pointed out the location of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin, which will surely be recorded in history.
In the future, history books will record that the first person to discover the Terracotta Warriors was Comrade Lin Sanqi, Deputy Minister of Health Jun Wei, Executive Deputy Commissioner of Fushan District, Secretary of Bao'an County, and Director of the Capital Infectious Disease Hospital.
When future generations see such a long list of unrelated positions, and think about how a foreigner actually discovered this wonder of the world, it is so ridiculous that it will make a lot of tourists laugh to death.
Thinking of this, Lin Baiyi, who was in a good mood, couldn't help his evil taste and looked at Village Chief Yang beside him:
"Village Chief Yang, is there a farmer named Yang Zhifa in your village?"
Village Chief Yang was a little surprised, but he nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, Yang Zhifa is my third brother, he is..."
Village Chief Yang looked around at the crowd gathered to watch the excitement, then pointed in a direction:
"The man over there wearing a short white coat is Yang Zhifa."
If this were a fantasy novel, you would see that the red aura on Yang Zhifa's head, which was once at its peak, has slowly disappeared, and his good luck has completely vanished.
According to normal history, in 1974, there was a severe drought in Shaanxi Province, and Xiyang Village organized villagers to dig wells together in an attempt to deal with the drought.
Then three farmers headed by Yang Zhifa were grouped together and found a place to dig a well.
As for whether water would emerge, that depended on fate. After all, it was not Lin Sanqi's Changping Farm. At that time, there were no high-tech water-detecting equipment, so they could only fire blindly.
At that time, Yang Zhifa casually drew a circle on the ground and said to his two companions: Let's dig in this area, maybe we can find water.
At that time, the villagers asked curiously why this place was chosen?
Yang Zhifa explained that there used to be a persimmon tree here, which grew very lushly, with many dense leaves, and it looked as if there was an abundant water source underground.
The three of them immediately started digging with shovels.
After digging about four or five meters deep, Yang Zhifa felt like something hit the pickaxe. He plucked up his courage, jumped into the pit, and reached out to scrape off the yellow soil.
What I found was a lump of mud that looked like a human head.
This was the first time that Qin Shihuang's Terracotta Army was discovered.
But it was clearly discovered by three farmers together, so why was Yang Zhifa's name recorded alone in history books?
That's because the first thing that was dug out of the Terracotta Warriors was a head, with black hair, a pink face, and black eyes, which looked exactly like a real person and were very realistic.
However, the color of the clay figure faded soon after it was dug out, which made the villagers, who were already frightened, feel even more as if they had encountered a real ghost.
At that time, someone actually suggested taking the head of the terracotta warrior home and placing it on the stove in their kitchen to worship it. After all, no one wanted to anger the gods.
Yang Zhifa had been a soldier before and had some knowledge. He was also a materialist and had no superstitious ideas in his mind. At that time, he thought that this must be some kind of cultural relic.
So he loaded the terracotta warrior fragments he had unearthed one after another onto a handcart and took them directly to the Lintong Cultural Center for expert identification.
When they arrived at the cultural center, Yang Zhifa handed the fragments to Zhao Kangming, the director of the cultural center.
Zhao Kangming spent a full three months patiently piecing together the terracotta figurine fragments piece by piece, repairing and patching them up, and finally made a complete warrior figurine.
So later many people misunderstood that the first person to discover the Terracotta Warriors was Zhao Kangming. In fact, this is wrong. Yang Zhifa, a farmer from Xiyang Village, was the first discoverer.
Later, the county gave Yang Zhifa a bonus of 30 yuan, which was equivalent to almost two months' salary for an average worker at the time.
As a result, Yang Zhifa was too timid and felt that the 30 yuan was too hot to handle and the amount was too huge, so he took the initiative to hand over the 30 yuan bonus to the production team.
In order to commend Lao Yang, the production team leader gave him five extra work points, which amounted to a reward of 1.3 cents.
So Yang Zhifa, the first person to discover the eighth wonder of the world, actually received only 1.3 cents in prize money.
Yang Zhifa's good luck had to wait until 1998, when the US President, Louisiana, visited China. His first stop was Xi'an. After getting off the plane, he immediately went to visit the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum.
Looking at these super spectacular treasures, La Zipperton suddenly said that he wanted to meet the first person who unearthed the Terracotta Warriors.
Shaanxi Province quickly contacted Yang Zhifa, who was farming at home, and arranged for him to meet with the US President.
When Kelingdun saw this simple farmer from Shaanxi Province, he seemed particularly happy and took the initiative to ask Yang Zhifa to sign his name as a souvenir.
After this incident, Yang Zhifa became famous.
Later, Yang Zhifa became the honorary director of the Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum. He came to the museum to clock in for work every day, signed autographs for tourists, and took photos.
Of course, the price of an autograph and a photo are all paid by tourists. Yang Zhifa is old now, but he finally made a fortune.
Now that Yang Zhifa's luck has been taken away by Lin Sanqi, Lin Sanqi feels a little embarrassed and wants to compensate this poor farmer brother.
"Village Chief Yang, call your brother Yang Zhifa over here. I think he has amazing talents and is destined to become a great man in the future."
Village Chief Yang was filled with questions, wondering how he could not see what his brother was like. He couldn't even get a temporary job at the sewing machine factory next door, so how could he achieve anything great?
"Fa Zai, come here."
(Wait, that's a bummer. This is Shaanxi Province, not Huadu. How can he be called Fa Zai? Let's start over.)
Okay, let’s start over: “Third brother, come here, the boss has something to ask you.”
Yang Zhifa was a little surprised, but he obeyed and ran over quickly:
"Brother, are you looking for me?"
"Oh, you idiot! It's Commissioner Lin who's looking for you. Just answer whatever he asks you. Answer properly."
Lin Sanqi quickly waved his hands, looked at the thin man, and patted his shoulder embarrassedly:
"Comrade Yang Zhifa, hello, hello. Don't be nervous. I saw you look familiar and it felt like we were old friends. I just wanted to ask if you have any difficulties at home and see if I can be of any help."
Lin Sanqi actually wanted to give him 30 yuan, but then he thought, what if he thought it was too little? So he gave him a chance to make a wish.
Yang Zhifa had served in the army, so he understood what the two golden branches and leaves and a star on the epaulettes represented. That was something he needed to look up to.
So when he heard Lin Sanqi's question, he immediately stood at attention and saluted.
Lin Sanqi was so frightened that he hurriedly saluted back, giving the greatest respect to the old soldier whose luck he had deprived him of.
"Report to the commander, I don't accept rewards without merit. I don't have any requests."
As a result, a woman next to him was dissatisfied after hearing this, and she kept waving her hands anxiously, indicating that Yang Zhifa should make a request.
Yang Zhifa pretended not to see it.
Lin Sanqi sighed. Life in the countryside in the 1960s was really hard. Not having enough to eat was the norm. How could there be no difficulties?
So Lin Sanqi walked directly to the middle-aged woman and asked:
"Comrade, are you Yang Zhifa's family member?"
The middle-aged woman also took the risk and nodded directly, "My wife, my name is Wang Juan."
Lin Sanqi squeezed the cash in his trouser pocket and asked with a smile, "You are his lover, so you are qualified to make a request on his behalf. Go ahead."
Wang Juan glanced at her husband, whose face was ashen, and bravely stated her request:
"Leader, my little son's leg is rotten. I wonder if you can give us some medicine. If I don't treat it, my little son will die."
Lin Sanqi blinked, thinking that he might not be able to fulfill other requests made by the woman, but when it comes to curing illnesses and saving lives, he is a professional.
"Where is your little son? I'll go check on him."
Village Chief Yang and Yang Zhifa became anxious when they heard this and started cursing at Wang Juan:
"How high of a rank is Commissioner Lin? Even the county head would salute him when he sees him. How dare he treat a country kid like you? How dare you say such a thing?"
When Wang Juan heard this, she stubbornly retorted with tears in her eyes:
"What's the matter? I just want to save my baby. For my baby to survive, I won't complain even if I die on my knees in front of a senior leader. Officer Lin, please save my little baby."
Lin Sanqi knew he shouldn't laugh, but he couldn't help it.
Because when he heard these Xi'an people talking, the image of Tong Xiangyu and Tong the shopkeeper kept flashing in his mind, and he was completely brainwashed. (End of this chapter)
