"Are they really grave robbers?"
At this time, Wang Guan was a little surprised. He didn't expect those people to have the courage to do this.
"It depends on how you understand this, little comrade." A deputy director who looked very old said with a smile: "They are indeed robbing tombs, but they are not the tomb robbers boasted on TV, they are just a bunch of idlers with nothing to do.
Gangsters. They were also influenced by movies and television to do such things."
"Actually, among this group of people, only the Fourth Master is considered a relatively experienced veteran. Although he is a water repairman, when he was young, he hung out in the two provinces of Lu and Henan, learning how to rob tombs."
The deputy director talked eloquently: "Later, the people who taught him to rob the tomb were arrested. Since the fourth master was just a lookout, the circumstances of the case were not deep, and he was only sentenced to one or two years. After he was released, he
He returned to Xiushui and planned to live a stable life. But he didn’t know how to make a living, so he just pretended to be a ghost and read Feng Shui for others.”
"Not to mention, this man's education is not high, but he is quite good at deceiving people. People in the countryside also believed this, which made him rich. Within a few years, he married a wife and built a building."
Speaking of which, this is considered a major case, and some deputy directors are paying close attention to it. Wen Sheng also added: "But later, as everyone's lives got better and better, and their knowledge became more and more sophisticated, the rural neighbors didn't believe it.
There is no Feng Shui magic, his financial income has dropped sharply, his life is difficult, and his wife ran away with him three years ago."
"After receiving such a blow, he did not reflect on his own mistakes. Instead, he complained about society. Finally, he came up with the idea of returning to his old business and quickly put it into practice. In the past two or three years, he gathered a group of accomplices and dug many big graves."
At the right time, the director continued: "However, this person is very cunning. Every time he does a job, he will stay dormant for four or five months. Even if the weather is calm, he will not take risks. So he has not attracted everyone's attention.
But the Skynet was very careful, and he was finally caught. It fully proves that no matter how cunning a fox is, one day it will show its tail. As long as we are vigilant, no criminals can escape the law!"
"Pah, pah, pah..."
After hearing the director's powerful speech, several deputy bureau chiefs and captains nearby applauded habitually.
"Ahem!"
The director's face glowed with pride, and he waved his hand modestly.
At the same time, Li Yifeng also clapped his hands politely, and then smiled and said: "Director, didn't you say that many cultural relics were seized? Can you let us see it?"
"Of course, Mr. Li is here to invite you."
Naturally, the director had no objection. Even the treasure map was taken out, so what else were the other cultural relics? At that moment, under the leadership of the director, everyone came to the place where the cultural relics were stored.
As soon as he entered, Wang Guan immediately saw that the floor of the spacious room was filled with all kinds of things.
Wang Guan roughly calculated that there were probably one or two hundred items. However, although there were many items, their condition was not very good. Most of them were in tatters and covered with dirt.
"There are so many cultural relics, why didn't they take action?" Li Yifeng marveled and asked very puzzledly.
"This is where Fourth Master is smart."
The director smiled and explained: "Mr. Li found out that there was no gold, silver or jade at all among these cultural relics. After robbing the tomb, they melted the most valuable gold and silver precious metals for money, and the jade was taken to the provincial capital for low-key sale. The remaining
I would rather throw these tattered things under the bed to get moldy than sell them, lest people follow the clues and find me."
"A very alert man." Li Yifeng said in surprise: "With such endurance, if it weren't for a coincidence, he might have been able to escape justice for a few more years."
"Who says it's not?" The director nodded in agreement.
Of course, everyone knows this, and this is only part of the reason. The real reason is probably that these tattered things are worthless, no one wants them, and they cannot be sold.
Everyone can clearly see that the things here are nothing more than tattered copper coins, tattered cans, and tattered sundries. I am afraid some people will dislike such things, let alone selling them, even if they are given away.
Your own place.
At this moment, Li Yifeng suddenly bent down, picked up a piece of stuff, and looked at it carefully. After a while, Li Yifeng handed the stuff to Wang Guan and asked with a smile: "Brother Wang Guan, what do you think of this thing?"
Wang Guan picked it up and took a look, and found that the object seemed to be iron, only the size of a palm, slightly round in shape, covered with green rust, and some vague carvings and patterns appeared on it.
"It seems to be a brand." Wang Guan guessed, and then asked someone to take a piece of coarse cloth and rub it gently on the green rust.
After a while, the green rust spots were much reduced, but the rust marks were deeply imprinted on the inside of the thing, making it difficult to remove. But two or three words could barely be seen.
"Feng...yi...handsome!"
Li Yifeng came closer to watch and speculated: "It seems to be a military token."
"It should be." Wang Guan agreed: "It's a pity that it has been buried underground for too long, and rust spots have grown on the inside of the brand, and even corroded the words. I don't know what military brand it is."
"This is made of iron. It must be some kind of token." Li Yifeng said with a smile: "If it is the sign of a senior general, even if it is not made of gold, it is at least made of silver and copper."
"Maybe." Wang Guan smiled and said: "Maybe there are gold and silver medals, but let those people melt them and use them to make money."
"What a waste of natural resources..." Li Yifeng shook his head and sighed.
At this time, Wang Guan also discovered that there was a special stone among the rags on the ground, so he picked it up and looked at it casually. The stone was a little heavy, and the surface was stained with sand, making it look very rough.
Li Yifeng took one look at it and smiled: "It looks like it's a stone inkstone. I don't know where it was dug. It's been buried for so long, but the stone hasn't rotted yet, which means the texture is pretty good."
"Hmm..." Wang Guan nodded lightly. Although there was too much sand on the stone and it no longer looked like an inkstone, the general outline was still there and could be barely distinguished.
At the same time, Li Yifeng blinked, overturned what he had just said, and said a little strangely: "No, it doesn't look like this stone inkstone was just unearthed."
"Why do you say that?" Wang Guan asked puzzledly: "Look at how heavily the sand is on the rocks. It must be traces of being buried for a long time."
"That's how I can conclude that this is not a cultural relic unearthed in recent years."
Li Yifeng chuckled and said: "You can tell by looking at the traces of sediment that it has been severely air-dried, and gray sand falls off when touched. I'm afraid it has to be in contact with the air for a long time before such a phenomenon occurs."
"That's true." Wang Guan nodded in agreement, and then whispered: "Maybe these are not stolen goods, but things from his home." Only in this way can it be explained.
"OK, got it."
Li Yifeng suddenly realized it and reacted immediately. It made sense when he thought about it. He had already ransacked his house, and there was no way he could tell whether it was stolen property or something else. As long as something looked like a cultural relic, it was fine to move it back.
Although the voices of the two people were small, the director next to him also heard it. He couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb, so he coughed dryly and said sternly: "Don't worry, you two, we will carefully check these cultural relics when the case is closed and counted. Absolutely."
It won't be confused. It's like treating criminals. You won't wrongly accuse a good person, and you won't let a bad person go."
He was said to be a criminal, so how could he be a good person? Wang Guan didn't bother to correct the director's grammatical errors. He rubbed his fingers on the stone inkstone and suddenly asked: "By the way, what will be done with these things in the end?"
"Send it to the cultural relics unit for safekeeping," the director said.
"Oh..." Wang Guan was stunned, his expression a bit hesitant.
At this moment, Li Yifeng seemed to say casually: "What about things other than cultural relics? I remember some items that were not claimed by anyone. They seemed to be auctioned at a public auction."
"Yes, why..." The director was stunned, suddenly understood something, and immediately smiled: "Yes, that's it. Mr. Li's eyes are so sharp that he should be able to tell which things are not cultural relics."
"The brand and stone inkstone are good." Li Yifeng answered the question, but made his attitude clear.
Afterwards, Li Yifeng put down the sign, smiled at Wang Guan and said: "After watching the excitement, we also know the ins and outs of the whole thing, and our curiosity is satisfied. It's time for us to leave."
"Yeah." Wang Guan was startled, then put down the stone and followed Li Yifeng out. The director and others saw him off warmly.
However, Secretary Luo and a deputy director stayed.
Soon after, Wang Guan and Li Yifeng came to the door under the respectful greetings of a group of people and said goodbye to everyone. They were polite for several minutes. When Secretary Luo came out, the three of them got into the car one after another.
Then, the driver drove slowly away, left the police station, and disappeared at the intersection.
At the same time, Secretary Luo, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around and handed two packaged items to Li Yifeng.
"Boss Li, is this appropriate?" Wang Guan is not stupid, and of course he knows what is inside the packed box.
Li Yifeng smiled and didn't explain anything. He just handed one of the boxes over. Wang Guan was not a stickler for old times, and he didn't make any false excuses. After a slight hesitation, he took the thing.
"How much?" Wang Guan asked.
At this time, seeing Secretary Luo holding out three fingers, Wang Guanshi asked: "Thirty thousand?"
"Three hundred." Secretary Luo replied.
"It's really cheap." Wang Guan sighed, knowing in his heart that if he hadn't gone through this procedure, he might even have saved three hundred yuan. After sighing, he took out three hundred yuan from his wallet and handed it over.
Secretary Luo didn't answer, but looked back at Li Yifeng.
"Take it, this is the rule." Li Yifeng smiled and said, "How much does my brand cost?"
"One hundred." Secretary Luo said, took the three hundred yuan and put it carefully into his pocket.
"It's probably the price." Li Yifeng smiled and then asked: "Brother Wang Guan, can you tell me now what the origin of this brand is?"
