Chapter 45 Bronze Mask, Ancient Village

Although it was just a quick glance, Jiang Han was very surprised.

He was relatively far away before. Although he felt that the bronze mask was real, he was not very sure.

After seeing it up close, he was basically certain that this thing was definitely genuine.

My goodness, this antique market is really a magical place.

A seemingly ordinary old man from the mountains could actually come up with such a treasure.

But he was also a little surprised. Currently, only bronze masks have been unearthed from the Sanxingdui site in China.

The mask in front of me doesn't match the style or age, so it obviously didn't come from there.

Is there a ruin that has not yet been discovered?

Jiang Han thought about it and felt that this possibility was very high.

The Dragon Kingdom has a history of five thousand years, with countless dynasties changing from ancient times to the present, and countless countries, large and small.

Who knows how many treasures are buried under these 9.6 million square kilometers of land.

The moment the old man opened the sack, Sister Zhou also saw the mask. The curiosity and excitement in her eyes immediately faded away, and she could not hide her disappointment.

I thought it was some kind of treasure, but I didn't expect it to be such an ugly and dirty thing. The workmanship is not exquisite at all, and it is far inferior to the previous vase.

The more Sister Zhou thought about it, the more she regretted it.

If I had known earlier, I would have spent more money to buy that vase.

At this time, the live broadcast room was also extremely lively.

"Good guy, if this thing is real, I will twist off my head and play it as a ball for everyone."

"Bronze masks have only been unearthed in Sanxingdui so far. The one in front of me obviously doesn't look like one."

"So this mask is fake? But it looks very contemporary."

"It must be fake. Sanxingdui is now a key archaeological project in the Dragon Kingdom. Every unearthed cultural relic is strictly recorded. It is impossible for anything to be taken out."

"Hahaha, the mask was specially stained with mud, it really looks like that."

"This old man looks quite honest. He looks like a man from the mountains. I didn't expect him to be able to lie to others."

"It's not necessarily a lie. What if the uncle was also deceived? Maybe he really thought this thing was real."

"The gains and losses are fake. If this were true, we would start in five years!"

The old man tightened the sack and looked at Jiang Han nervously.

"How about it, young man, do you want to buy it?"

The old man obviously had no business experience. He asked if he wanted to buy it without even telling the price.

Jiang Han pondered for a moment, and did not rush to answer, but planned to collect more information to clarify the matter.

After all, the fact that an old man from the mountains, all tanned by the sun, suddenly took out an ancient bronze mask was a bit bizarre.

"Old man, you look like you are old." Jiang Han asked seemingly casually.

"No, it's been a long time, at least it belongs to Tang Dynasty." The old man said with certainty.

In fact, he has never read a few books in his life, so he doesn't know what dynasties there are in the Dragon Kingdom.

But in his mind, the Tang Dynasty seemed very long ago, so he made nonsense of it.

As soon as he finished speaking, the water friends in the live broadcast room burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, it's sweet, it's really sweet."

"The uncle is right, he is indeed very sticky."

"Although, I think the uncle is a bit cute."

"I guess I only know about the Tang Dynasty, hahaha."

The uncle's answer made Jiang Han even more certain that the other party must have obtained this mask by accident and did not know its true value.

This mask is from the Tang Dynasty. According to his judgment, this thing has a history of at least three thousand years!

The history of the Dragon Kingdom goes back three thousand years, almost to the end of the Shang Dynasty and the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty.

In other words, this mask is probably from the Shang Dynasty!

Jiang Han remained calm and continued chatting with the uncle: "Uncle, where did you get this thing? Why is it still sticky with soil? It can't be fake."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man suddenly became anxious: "Although I picked this thing up, I guarantee that it is absolutely real."

Picked up?

Jiang Han was slightly startled. Good guy, can you pick up this thing?

With the uncle's explanation, Jiang Han finally figured out the matter.

It's actually simple to say. The uncle lives in an ancient village in the northwest mountain valley. It is a kind of place that is almost isolated from the world, surrounded by endless mountains and dense forests.

There is a legend passed down from generation to generation in the village, saying that there is a big tomb in the mountains outside the village! A big tomb of a nobleman! And it is quite old.

Most people in the village still believe this legend.

But when you leave the village, you can see mountains all around, and the area is very vast.

Moreover, there are many venomous snakes and beasts in the deep mountains and old forests, which can be said to be very dangerous. Even the villagers who are very familiar with the surrounding area do not dare to leave the village too far.

There were once a few villagers who couldn't hold back their excitement for the tomb, so they took their mastiffs and tools into the mountains, only to never come back.

Since then, no one from the villagers dared to go there.

However, some time ago, a small earthquake occurred in that mountain range, which collapsed many mountains and led to frequent landslides and mudslides.

Fortunately, it was an uninhabited deep mountain forest, so no one was injured.

However, a few days later, the villagers discovered that there were many fragments of earthen jars in the stream outside the village.

Immediately afterwards, some people said that the earthquake collapsed the mountain and knocked out all the treasures in the tomb, causing the villagers to roll up their trousers and go searching for treasures in the stream.

However, very few people actually picked up good things. Most people just picked up some broken clay pots and jars.

And this old man was very lucky to find a bronze mask.

The old man didn't know how much the mask was worth, but he heard on TV that antiques were already worth a lot of money.

So I came all the way from my hometown to Shanghai, hoping to sell the mask at a good price.

After figuring out the ins and outs, Jiang Han felt a little relieved. The origin of this bronze mask was quite clean.

He nodded and said to the old man: "Okay, sir, I want this thing."

Sister Zhou glanced at him with a confused expression.

This thing is broken and dirty, why did you buy it? It would be too ugly to just put it in the house as a decoration.

"No, Brother Jiang really plans to buy it."

Water friends were equally puzzled.

"Just buy it. Even though it's fake, it's good to buy it for fun."

"That's right, it's only a hundred dollars, just for fun."

"Besides, my uncle's home is so far away. It would be so pitiful if the trip was in vain. I support Brother Jiang!"

When Jiang Han said he wanted to buy something, the old man was very excited. He had been shopping in this antique market for several days.

After most people saw the mask, they walked away unhappy, just like the upstart before.

Occasionally, someone expressed that he wanted to buy it, but the price he was offered was too low. It was only a few hundred yuan, which was not enough to cover his travel expenses. Naturally, such a money-losing transaction was not allowed.

So up to now, the mask has still not been sold, and the old man himself has become anxious.

After listening to Jiang Han's words, he asked impatiently: "How much do you want to pay, young man?"

Jiang Han thought for a while and said, "Uncle, what do you think of one hundred thousand?"
