golden escape

Fang You looked at Ye Yuqing, shook his head and smiled, "Yuqing, this copper coin is not only precious, it can be said to be very precious, rare and rare, because the country's name Daqi was very short, so the amount of coins minted is small and exquisite, and it is passed down. So far, only two coins have survived, and they are still incomplete. This Daqi Tongbao can be said to be the first complete copper coin in the whole country."

"Its value is immeasurable." Fang You looked at the purse in his hand, and smiled with admiration. No one would have thought that this rare and precious copper coin would appear on the purse.

"Since there are very few of them, little wanderer, how do you know it's real?" Ye Yuqing said with a puzzled face.

Fang You smiled, "Yuqing, I have an intuition when it comes to antiques. This copper coin has been handed down to this day, and the handwriting is still clear, and the simple atmosphere on this copper coin is in sharp contrast with the copper coins next to it. According to Some signs of copper rust on it all indicate that this is an old object, but I am not sure that this is the real Daqi Tongbao, and I must show it to Elder Chu for a look."

"Then let's go quickly." Ye Yuqing was a little nervous. She didn't expect to go out to the temple fair with Fang You and get a copper coin like a rare treasure. I understand that there are only two incomplete copper coins in the whole country, so it can be seen that the price of this copper coin in their hands is just like what Fang You said is incalculable.

Fang You nodded. Although the aura in this copper coin already explained everything, he also wanted to hear Elder Chu's opinion on this copper coin. What's more, his research on copper coins was far less deep than that of porcelain.

What's more, he has never read the real Daqi Tongbao, and he can only confirm it through the books he has read.

"Then let's send Xiao Yiyi home first, and then visit Mr. Chu." Fang You thought for a while, then said.

"I'm going too, I'm going too, if I'm not allowed to go, I'll just sit here and cry." Xiao Yiyi raised her hands, looking anxious.

Fang You looked at Ye Yuqing helplessly, smiled helplessly, then took Xiao Yiyi, took a taxi, and rushed to Elder Chu's place.

He and Ye Yuqing had just visited Mr. Chu this morning, but they didn't expect that the morning hadn't passed yet, and they came again. Fang You smiled, and Mr. Chu must have seen this big Qi Tongbao. excitement.

When getting into the taxi, Fang You had activated the escape technique through the car window, and had a look at the aura color of this copper coin. It was a faint yellow color. According to the color chronology established by Fang You, this yellow color could already reach the early Song Dynasty and the late Tang Dynasty. It can be said that it is very consistent with the age when the copper coins were cast.

"Yuqing, if this copper coin is real, this gift from you is too expensive, and I will never accept it." In the taxi, Fang You looked at Ye Yuqing firmly.

Although he discovered it first, Ye Yuqing paid for it and gave it to him as a gift. If it was an ordinary antique, it would be fine. Fang You didn't want to just take possession of such a rare treasure as Da Qi Tong Bao. for oneself.

Ye Yuqing stared at him helplessly, and then said coldly: "What I gave you is yours. What's more, when I found you staring at this purse, you must have noticed it a long time ago." Something is wrong, so this purse is yours, no matter how valuable it is, I will give it to you, if you dare to return it, it means that we have become strangers."

Hearing Ye Yuqing's icy words, Fang You smiled wryly, a feeling of warmth rose in his heart, and he couldn't help holding the copper coin even tighter. When Elder Chu was telling him a story, he once said that for a piece of Antiques, how many brothers turn against each other, how many good friends meet like strangers.

Ye Yuqing seemed to turn a blind eye to this rare treasure, and Fang You could feel that this was her truest emotion. Fang You held the copper coin and said softly: "Yuqing, thank you, this is your gift." Give me the most precious gift, and I will keep this copper coin for the rest of my life to ensure that it will not be damaged in the slightest."

On Ye Yuqing's cold face just now, she suddenly smiled, as charming as a hundred flowers blooming, and a faint warmth gradually rose in the car.

"Ah, my sister is even more beautiful when she smiles. She really is a beautiful sister." Xiao Yiyi's innocent voice made Ye Yuqing's smile softer. She stroked Xiao Yiyi's hair and looked at Fang You from the corner of her eye. , How can a copper coin be as important as the people around you.

He rushed to the sea without any scruples, just to find his missing self. How many people in the world can do such a thing.

At the gate of the community, the three of them walked down, walked into the community slowly, and headed towards Elder Chu's courtyard.

Elder Chu's door was still wide open, forming a sharp contrast with the closed villas next to him.

"Old Chu, we are back again." Walking to the door, Fang You greeted the inside with a smile.

Elder Chu was still basking in the sun in the yard, holding a thick book in his hand, wearing glasses, and was reading it. When he saw Fang You, he smiled and said in surprise, "Xiao You, why don't you read it?" , I just came here in the morning, why is it coming again now, my old man is not a giant panda, he should not be so attractive to you young people, hey, there is a little girl, this should be your sister's child , come here, little girl, come here, grandpa will give you candy."

Xiao Yiyi took a step back, hugging Fang You's thigh tightly, "Grandma and uncle said that they can't accept things from strangers."

"Hehe, you're so smart. I'm not a stranger. I'm a grandfather. If you don't believe me, ask your uncle." Elder Chu laughed heartily, and continued to seduce with candies.

Fang You smiled, "Go, Yiyi, it's okay, this is your Grandpa Chu."

Xiao Yiyi tried to take a few steps forward, took the candy from Elder Chu, ran back, and without any scruples, peeled off the candy wrapper and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Xiao You, you are here because you have something to do." Elder Chu said with a smile, put down his books, took off his glasses, and looked at Fang You and Ye Yuqing.

Fang You nodded, and handed the purse to Elder Chu, "Elder Chu, when Yuqing and I accompanied Xiao Yiyi to the temple fair, we bought this purse at a stall selling gadgets. Later, when we were looking at the copper coins, we found that Among them is a copper coin that says Daqi Tongbao."

Hearing Fang You's words, Mr. Chu's originally indifferent expression changed slightly, "Da Qi Tong Bao..." He said in a low voice, and he quickly looked at the few copper coins on the purse, those brand new copper coins , he couldn't help but frowned, and after a little inspection, his eyes were set on the bow tie under the purse.

Seeing this copper coin covered with copper rust, Mr. Chu looked excitedly, and carefully looked at it. He also used the magnifying glass next to him, his expression fluctuated. Finally, he sighed, put down his purse, and joked with a smile. He said, "Xiaoyou, you found this by accident."

Seeing the gleam in Mr. Chu's eyes, Fang You couldn't help laughing twice, "Mr. Chu, I just wondered why there was a copper coin in the bow on this purse. When I was about to buy it, Yuqing was the first to help. I picked it out..." Fang You explained the situation to Elder Chu in detail.

The smile on Elder Chu's face became wider, and he pointed to the two of them, "You two really have a good understanding. It's not just a coincidence that this kind of thing happened to you, it also proves the tacit understanding between you two. Haha, Xiaoyou, don't hesitate any longer."

Hearing what Elder Chu said, two red clouds rose on Ye Yuqing's face, and Fang You was a little confused as to why he was hesitating.

Mr. Chu smiled and waved his hand, "Okay, let's not talk about anything else, this copper coin, after my preliminary judgment, can be said to be the genuine Daqi Tongbao, Xiaoyou, you can recognize it, I must have Read the book given to you carefully, it is very good, since you all know it, I will not describe the history of this copper coin anymore."

"There are only two copper coins in the country, but they are not complete. This is the only complete copper coin with clear writing. Look at these four characters. The four characters on the copper coin are slender and clear, neat and powerful. You can see their delicacy, and even when some Qing Dynasty copper coins have become blurred, the Qian Wen of the two incomplete copper coins that have suffered a lot can still be discerned."

"Compared with the copper coins of other dynasties, the edge of this Daqi Tongbao is wider, and its color is light yellow. These are the salient features that can prove the authenticity of Daqi Tongbao." Chu Lao said with a smile.

Elder Chu pointed to this copper coin and continued: "More importantly, this Daqi Tongbao is the first batch of copper coins minted by Li Sheng, the founding emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty. , which cannot be owned by the copper coins next to it, which further proves the preciousness of Daqi Tongbao."

"The four-eyed Daqi with four holes drilled by the famous collector received it. Just because of this copper coin, he called his collection room Qi Zhai. It can be seen that he has great respect for this big Qi Tongbao. Love, Xiaoyou, you are a fast learner in antiques, but your luck is stronger than others, and you will get Daqi Tongbao like a rare treasure when you visit a temple fair."

Elder Chu thought for a while, smiled and shook his head, "Maybe it's not just luck, your sensitivity to antiques also plays a huge role, otherwise, you wouldn't have found the Venus Dragon Inkstone in that brick at all."

"This Daqi Tongbao can be fully presented in the world, and it will definitely cause a sensation in the ancient spring world. It will allow all Guquan masters to watch this complete Daqi Tongbao. You can say that you are their benefactor. It is not an exaggeration. The value of the treasure does not lie in how much it is worth, but in that it is the first complete Daqi Tongbao in the ancient spring world, and its significance is very important." Chu Lao sighed and smiled.
