Chapter 1324

"Don't think about it, you are all Feng Shui masters, you should know the geography of this area very well. The river here is wide and deep. It is said that there is an old Yellow River channel in the river. So whether it is deep or geologically complex It is not something that humans can dive into to salvage. Of course, I believe you have used a lot of simple tools like anchor hooks, but it is impossible to salvage them." Fan Jiannan looked at this middle-aged man evenly and calmly. Authentic, "But we are different. The Hebo is a very professional underwater search and salvage ship."

"What do you want to say?" Lian Zhen said coldly.

"We can find Zhenhe spending money. However, I need more information. I don't know much about Zhenhe spending money, and we are not here for this one thing. But this spending money is very likely to be related to What we are looking for has some kind of connection. So I thought, maybe you will have relevant information for me." Fan Jiannan said with a smile.

"What do you want in exchange?" Lian Zhen looked at him and said.

"Naturally it's the coin, since it's a relic of the ancient Sanhe sect master. It's useless for me to come, but it means something different to you. Am I right?" Fan Jiannan said with a smile.

"Will you give us the money?" Lian Zhen sneered, "I'm afraid you Wushu people are not so easy to talk to?"

"It's up to you to believe it or not, but you seem to have no other choice at the moment." Fan Jiannan sighed, "And what I want is the information carried on the money, not the money itself. Isn't that right for you?" Is it a good thing?"

The middle-aged fat man and the thin young man who were sitting on the side glanced at each other, and said to Lian Zhen in a low voice, "Brother Lian, I think what he said makes sense. Besides, if he really only spent money for Zhenhe, there is no It is necessary to take a risk to come here. They have a boat, people, and equipment, so wouldn’t it be good to just fish out the money? Why come and talk nonsense with us?”

"Old man, do you believe what they say?" Lian Zhen looked at the middle-aged fat man and asked in a low voice.The fat man didn't speak, but just nodded.

"Okay!" Lian Zhen turned around and said, "In this case, I will tell you everything I know."

Fan Jiannan nodded, stretched out his hand and said, "Please."

"This place used to be an important throat and a place where merchants gathered. The Han Dynasty set up a capital guard and began to garrison here. But the Yellow River has been blue all year round, which caused serious flooding here. So Tang Zeyan, a famous Fengshui master at that time, was invited to try to subdue the flooding. Therefore, after three and a half years of on-the-spot investigation, Tang Zeyan shuttled back and forth in this river, and finally chose to build a high platform here to suppress the river.

So it took thousands of laborers half a year to build the earthen platform. It was originally a Fengshui platform to suppress the water vapor coming from the west of the Yellow River waterway.But after it was completed, Tang Zeyan began to realize that it was not the best way to suppress the flood with Fengshui platform alone.Among the five elements, soil has the function of cutting down and restricting water.However, using soil to control water is quite taboo, because floods should be diverted rather than blocked.

So he was ingenious and came up with a way to collect copper coins from all directions and melt them in public to recast a giant coin.It is said that this coin is as big as a tabletop and as thick as a city brick, with Taoist talisman ciphers all over it.When the giant copper coin was cast, it rained heavily.At that time, everyone thought it was a good omen, because it was in line with the principle that metal produces water in the five elements.Gold is the mother of water, so it can control water.

Later that huge copper coin was placed on that high platform.Later, an earthquake destroyed the high platform, and the giant flower slipped into the Yellow River, and no one has seen it since.But the flood here has never happened again.Therefore, many people think that the huge coin is still in the local river.It is precisely because the Zhenhe spending money still exists, so the flood has never happened again in the history of this place. "

Fan Jiannan frowned and said, "So that's the case. But I still have some problems. Back then, this place was not what it is now, but a remote and poor place. Why did the Duhu government attach importance to such a place, and even spend a lot of money to invite Tang Ze to act like this?" Experts, to control floods? And it has lasted for many years, which seems a bit unreasonable."

"Anyway, that's all I know. If there's something you don't understand, I can't help you. That's all I know about Zhenhe spending money." Lian Zhen said calmly.

Fan Jiannan thought for a while and asked, "Are there any other legends about Zhenhe spending money?"

"Not anymore. Maybe there are, but I don't know." Lian Zhen shook his head.

While talking, the little owner of the night food stall came out with the dishes, and said with a smile, "Guys, your dishes are all ready. I heard you talking lively in the back just now. It's not up to you if you want to come here together." a table?"

"Alright." The middle-aged fat man nodded and walked over, and sat down beside Lian Zhen.Another thin young man came over and sat carefully beside them.

The small owner of the night food stall smiled enthusiastically, "It seems that you are still very interested in the customs and legends of our Hekou Town? The history of the Hekou town is too old, and there are not many locals. I got it. Those of the old generation who knew about it are almost dead." He shook his head with some emotion.

"Oh? It seems that this boss knows about these legends?" Fan Jiannan said with a change of expression, "Come on, sit here. Let's have a drink together and chat."

"I can't, I'm so sorry." The little boss refused for a while but couldn't back down, so he sat down and said, "It's okay, it looks like I don't have any other business today. I'll just have a drink with you guys, okay?" For nothing else, just spend money for this Zhenhe."

"Why, boss, do you know that Zhenhe spends money?" Fan Jiannan said with a smile.

"I know, my grandfather was a boatman on the waterway in this area. He told me these stories a lot when I was young. It is said that the river town cost money, and it cost 50 yuan to make it successfully. This It was a big deal in those days. Moreover, in ancient times, the regulations on coin casting were very strict, and private casting was prohibited among the people.

In fact, it's almost the same as we are now.Now you want to print your own money, which is also illegal, and you will lose your head.But the money spent on this coin seemed to have been affirmed by the imperial court at the time. Not only was no one pursued it, but it is also said that the imperial court appointed two minting officials in the capital who specialize in coin minting to assist.It is estimated that it is similar to our current expert guidance. "The little boss of the night food stall said with a smile.

"So, this matter has been fully supported by the authorities." Fan Jiannan nodded.

"It's natural. It is said that thousands of people piled up soil to build the platform at that time, so they had to use corvée. How could it be possible that the government didn't support it?" Lian Zhen frowned.
