Rebirth 13, starting from the big demolition treasure hunt

Chapter 411: The kiln site was dug

Since digging the third layer of soil, fewer and fewer people have gone to the waste dump on Yuliangzhou to explore for treasure.

There is no other reason. There are three layers of soil, a depth of 7 to 9 meters, basically a mixture of sand and soil, and nothing much.

After all, there are currently many dirt fields around the city, and there are many places to go.

I visited several soil fields in the afternoon, but in one soil layer that looked like black silt mixed with a small amount of bricks, I found more than twenty coins and a small number of miscellaneous items.

Judging from the age of the coins, from the Song Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, it shows that the location dug here is probably an ancient well.

Apart from wells, there is rarely anything at this depth.

The coins are not particularly good, they are all ordinary.

Among the miscellaneous items, there is a copper scale weight from the Yuan Dynasty, which is very good and seems to have characters engraved on it.

The weighing weights of the Yuan Dynasty have a very strange shape, like the roofs of the Qing Dynasty, and a bit like a popcorn popping machine. The upper part is very thick.

In fact, the styles of weighing weights in various periods are very different. This is like the weights in the Qin and Han Dynasties. Most of them are in the shape of lotus pods.

While talking, the two went to the work shed.

"What is it?"

Time still passes quietly in the busyness.

When he reached the direction of the Yuliangzhou Bridge near the southeast corner of Yanjiang Avenue, a laborer named Ye who was working at the construction site stopped him.

(In the direction of the fish pond that Wu Yuansheng often went to before, the dump site and the location where the excavator collects soil are probably near the air raid shelter of Ermi Factory.)

He wanted to try his luck in the afternoon. After all, there were ancient wells in the old city.

This is a true portrayal of many ordinary people, all for the sake of a better life for future generations! His own father, Wu Jinyi, also wanted to work hard for him. )

"Boss Wu, I picked up something. Come with me to the work shed and I'll give it to you!"

During this period, he also took time to visit the specific locations where various contractors dug soil in the old city.

Taking out cigarettes and handing one to him, Wu Yuansheng asked casually.

(After so many years outside, he discovered a pattern. Most of the small-time workers, mainly migrant workers, whether they work on construction sites, in archeology, or in other industries, are almost in their fifties.

He was currently digging the third layer of dirt. There were not many items in this dirt pit, so he went to other dirt pits to look for more opportunities.

He knew where the soil was dumped in each area and in which garbage dump in Yuliangzhou it was dumped.

“Some bowls, jars, and pots, you’ll know when you look at them!”

"Okay! I'll go with you."

(There are also other daily necessities, including clothing style, people's mental outlook, and cultural atmosphere, which are also different in different eras.)

When digging the second layer of soil, Wu Yuansheng basically searched for treasures and picked up items in the muck field in the direction of the fish pond.

After stopping him, Master Ye said to him directly.

If you dig deeper, you can dig the well to the bottom. If you encounter an opportunity, you can still find better items.

This young worker was about fifty years old. He had sold some porcelain tiles to him when he was digging the second layer of soil.

There is a saying that goes: “As you get older, you have to work harder!”

At noon that day, when he returned from the garbage dump and was about to go home for lunch, Wu Yuansheng had nothing to do, so he went to the construction site on the Pawnshop Street in the old city to learn about the situation of the garbage.

There are not many people at the construction site here yet. If the steel workers, carpenters, plumbers, bricklayers, etc. arrive when the house is officially built, they will probably rent a house in the shanty town next to it that has not been demolished. .

At that time, everyone's position was basically relatively fixed.

The work sheds on the construction site are also limited and cannot accommodate so many people.

This place is in a good location, but the land is very expensive. It must be used to build houses, and the land cannot be occupied by work sheds.

Master Ye lives on the first floor, near the edge of the work shed.

After entering the door with him, I quickly saw the items he picked up.

As he said, there are pots, bowls, large and small jars, oil lamps, tea cups, incense burners, etc.

<divclass="contentadv">These things are all ceramic products, and their shapes are very beautiful.

Among them, the pot should be a wine pot, only about 15 centimeters high. It has a plate-like mouth shape, a spout like a purple clay pot, and a handle.

The bowl is shaped like a bamboo hat and is very thick.

The jars are very special, they are round, the big one is only as big as a grapefruit, and the small one is as big as an apple.

The oil lamps are all in the shape of a spoon, but not so round, they are oval.

The shape of the tea cup is similar to that of the bowl, but it is much smaller and not as thick.

The incense burner is like a smaller version of the basin.

He must have known that no one wanted the pottery pieces, and most of the items picked up were complete.

I took two pots and looked at them carefully. Judging from the fact that the soil inside was still wet, I could tell they had just been picked up.

I estimated the number and found that there were more than thirty.

After picking up so much, and considering the current depth of the digging, he felt that he should have dug the kiln site.

"Master Ye, there should be more than just these items where you picked up these items!"

Wu Yuansheng asked about his guess.

"Of course it's more than that. When the excavator was digging, a lot of it was loaded onto the muck truck and transported to the muck yard. I picked these up in the morning. The master of the excavator also came down and picked up a few. , and the man who drove the garbage truck also picked it up."

He told what he knew.

Wu Yuansheng went to the garbage dump in the morning.

He also knew the location of the dumped soil in this area, which was in the direction of the driving school.

When he went there before, he didn't even find any pottery fragments.

If it really fell on the dirt field over there, you would see some pottery fragments anyway.

I don’t know if he fell over again after I left. It seems that I need to ask the master who drives the rear eight-wheeled dirt truck.

"How much are these? Please tell me the price. Pottery products are not very valuable!"

Without thinking about this problem any further, he said to Master Ye.

"It's 50 yuan each. Can you take it?"

During this time, Master Ye often sold some items found in the dirt at construction sites, and he had some idea of ​​the prices.

In addition, people who collect antiques also know that they need to make money when buying things.

For 50 yuan, except for the oil lamp, which makes no profit, everything else is profitable.

"The complete ones can be priced at the price you mentioned. The damaged ones can be discussed later!"

"Row!"

After the two agreed, they began to count the quantities.

There are 26 complete ones and 7 others that are slightly incomplete.

For the last seven, he added 7 yuan and asked Master Ye to wrap them in newspapers. After putting them all in a snakeskin bag, he paid him 100 yuan.

During this period, Yi Xiaoyue called and asked him when he would go back for dinner. He said it was hard to say yet and let them eat first without waiting for him.

(Yu Liangzhou is close to the soil farm. Unless there are special circumstances, he basically goes home to eat every day.)

After the two took their things out of the construction site and put them in the van, they returned to the construction site in order to see the location of the kiln site.
