Happy Tycoon

Xiao Zhao is worthy of being a master's student specializing in cultural relics, and he knows these things recorded in history like the palm of his hand.

Elder Liu nodded in satisfaction, motioning for Xiao Zhao to continue talking.

Xiao Zhao continued: As for the second Daqi Tongbao, it is the legendary 'Four-Eyed Daqi'. Around 1920, the wind of coin collection research in our country revived. In 1926, Southern Quan coin collectors spontaneously Founded the Guquan Institute and the journal Guquan, and the prosperity of Quanxue began. The year before the establishment of the institute, on April 2, 1925, Dai Baoting and Zhu Kezhuang got the Four Eyes in Poyang, Jiangxi Province. The style is the same as that of the first cutaway Daqi, and the style is the same. It is a straight-forward treasure, which can shake the spring altar. Dai Jun got this and soon returned to Zhang Shuxun, a famous money collector, that is to say, it was resold soon It was given to Zhang Shuxun, the coin king who was rich in wealth and the most famous Tibetan spring in the world at that time. He was the initiator of the Guquan Academy. Since then, the hidden chamber has never been shown to others, so he called himself 'Qi Zhai', which shows how much Mr. Zhang loves this ancient spring.

Hearing Xiao Zhao mention this, Yang Jing couldn't help but think of some information about the coin king Zhang Shuxun in his memory.

Mr. Zhang Shuxun was born in the Zhang family in Nanxun, Huzhou. This family is a serious and wealthy family with rich collections for generations. It also has a pivotal position in the modern history of China.

Zhang Shuxun can be said to be a milestone figure in the history of Chinese coin collection, which represents an era. In the 1920s and 1930s, the study of coin collections was at its peak. South, Zhang and North stood in the Quanzhou, and Fang Ruo (Fang Yaoyu)'s coin collections all belonged to Shanghai Chen Rentao, and the latter part of the collection belonged to Zhang Shuxun. Since then, most of the precious springs seen in the north and south have flowed into his hands. In that era, whether it is collections, financial resources, spring knowledge, or courage, they can be said to dominate the spring altar and have won the admiration of colleagues in the spring circle.

Mr. Zhang's collection is also amazing, with countless treasures and rare ones. It is said that he actually collected as many as 16 of the six-character knife coins of the Warring States Period. It may be inevitable that the Four-Eyed Daqi precious spring belongs to Zhang Shuxun. Qi Zhai and Four-eyed Daqi drank the spring altar together, which not only made Mr. Zhang's reputation, but also made Daqi Tongbao's title of Legendary Ancient Spring and Famous Treasures.

It is no exaggeration to say that the reason why Daqi Tongbao has such a great reputation in the ancient spring world is because Zhang Shuxun Mr. Zhang; similarly, Mr. Zhang's ability to become the king of coins is also related to this legendary four-eyed Daqi. have an inseparable relationship.

Xiao Zhao over there went on to say: Actually, there is another wrong statement about this 'Four Eyes Daqi'. The world believes that Mr. Dai Baoting got this 'Four Eyes Daqi' from a child kicking shuttlecocks. I bought it because the child used this 'Four Eyes Da Qi' to make a shuttlecock, so four eyes were drilled from it. This is the origin of the four eyes on the 'Four Eyes Da Qi', but in fact this saying is Wrong. Mr. Dai Baoting once said in an article ten years after he obtained Four-Eyed Daqi, Daqi Tongbao was obtained in the hands of a grocery stall merchant on the afternoon of April 2nd., thus It can be seen that this 'Four Eyes Daqi' was not bought from a child kicking shuttlecock. From the information in the article, such as acquired from a grocery merchant, Quanzuan with four small eyes, returned to the original string and other information, It can be guessed that this spring should be a big leakage of the spring. Soon after the spring came, it was attributed to Mr. Zhang Shuxun for 500 yuan. At that time, 500 yuan could be converted into 40,000 catties of rice. Two or three years of expenses, but this is not a 'leakage', it can even be called 'the largest leak in the spring world', but this kind of 'leakage' will only favor those hardworking and caring people, such as Mr. Dai Baoting.

In the 1940s, due to the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Mr. Zhang Shuxun lived in the United States, and 'Four Eyes Daqi' was also brought to the United States as one of his favorite springs. Mr. Zhang Shuxun died of illness later. There is no news of the whereabouts of the money, and most people in the spring circle think that this spring has been lost like the 'missing corner Daqi', and it has become an eternal regret.

As for the third Daqi Tongbao, the name is 'Blue Rust Daqi', which was bought by Mr. Chen Guangyang, a Singaporean who is known as the number one ancient spring collector today, at a high price from an unknown source in the late 1990s Yes, it wasn’t made public until the beginning of this century. This is the third Daqi Tongbao. Teacher, I’m done.”

Mr. Liu nodded slightly and said, Xiao Zhao, what you said is good, very good, but there are still two mistakes in it.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhao's face immediately became embarrassed.

However, Mr. Liu ignored his disciple's embarrassment, but directly pointed out the two mistakes Xiao Zhao just mentioned.

First, Mr. Zhang Shuxun's 'Four Eyes Daqi' is not missing, nor is it lost because of Mr. Zhang Shuxun's death. In fact, in the Zhang Jingjiang and Zhang Shiming's Family disclosed for the first time the real whereabouts of the money, which confirmed that the Four-Eyed Daqi was not lost, but was stored in the Dai Jitao Foundation in the United States. In the Mysterious Daqi Tongbao section of the book The photo of Four Eyes Daqi was published for the first time in the book, making up for the lack of history. He also told people that in 1938, Mr. Zhang Shuxun's family went to the United States due to Japan's invasion of China. It was not until after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War that he returned to Shanghai to take away the collection of 2,000 coins, among which was Four Eyes Daqi. A batch of ancient coins were sold to Dai Jitao, a great collector in the United States at the time, and after Mr. Dai passed away, his huge inheritance and collections formed the Dai Jitao Foundation, and Four Eyes Daqi was stored in this foundation.

Although this 'Four-Eyed Daqi' has never been exhibited, this ancient spring is indeed preserved in the Dai Jitao Foundation. This incident once again explains the fate between Daqi Tongbao and Dai.

As for the second mistake, it is that the authentic Daqi Tongbao found now is not three, but four. About ten years ago, a Daqi Tongbao named 'Green Rust Daqi' reappeared, and it has been It has been proven to be genuine, and it is different from any Daqi Tongbao that has appeared before, and now it can be confirmed as the fourth authentic Daqi Tongbao.

It is said that this coin is similar to the unearthed site of 'Lan Rust Daqi'. It was in a Tang and Song Dynasty site, and it was stored in cans for tens of catties, including Tang, Five Dynasties, Song and other dynasties. Southern Song money. According to reports, Qianfeng Quanbao, Xiantong Xuanbao, Qianheng Tongbao, Guangzheng Tongbao and other treasures have been unearthed here. It can be inferred that this batch of money should be stored in the Northern Song Dynasty. This should be the history of numismatics and currency in our country. Another major discovery. With the unearthed and discovery of two real objects of Da Qi Tong Bao, everyone can affirm the existence of Da Qi Tong Bao money, and the research and understanding of Da Qi Tong Bao does not only stop at Two incomplete rubbings, but in a real sense, it is moving towards the study of physical objects.

After a pause, Mr. Liu looked at the freshly baked Daqi Tongbao in his hand and said with a smile: If you count this one, there are already five Daqi Tongbaos in the world. Xiao Zhao, the basic knowledge needs more Hold on tight! Your spirituality is good, but it’s still a little rough. You need to continue to hone your temper, read more, ask more questions, learn more, and don’t hear that wind is rain, so that you can Go further in this line!

Yes, teacher, I remember! Xiao Zhao replied respectfully.

Well, we still have thirty-four ancient springs that have not been treated here, and I don't know what is covered under the copper rust. But what I can tell you is that Director Cai and I just brushed out Two ancient springs, I found this Daqi Tongbao and a Daxia Zhenxing, both of which are special treasures! So, children, I will give you a chance to practice your hands. You two are in groups, and one group is responsible for four Koizumi, clean them up!

These students immediately cheered excitedly.

This kind of opportunity is really rare.
