500 yuan, who won the prize by donating a bronze sword, told the camera that he would never hand it in again. How's it going now?

Northwest China has the most unearthed cultural relics, especially Shaanxi Province. This is because during the historical changes of the Chinese nation, many dynasties, such as Zhou, Qin, Han and Tang, established their capitals in Shaanxi, and every dynasty change buried new cultural relics in Shaanxi land. Most cultural relics appear in the form of tombs, but natural changes such as crustal movement make some cultural relics move to other places alone.

If cultural relics are found to be handed over to the state, the relevant government departments will give some money and reward those who hand over cultural relics with banners. Although this affirmed the contribution of those who handed in cultural relics, some people questioned whether the reward amount was too small compared with the value of cultural relics found.

The reason for this is that if cultural relics are recycled at a high price, it may further lead to the prevalence of grave robbery, which is equivalent to legally and reasonably encouraging grave robbers to resell stolen cultural relics to the state, which will bring immeasurable losses to tombs in China.

The story of a young man who accidentally picked up a sword and handed in a cultural relic, and won a cash prize and a banner from 500 yuan, comes from the story of a young man Li Lei who was working in a construction site in Danfeng County, Shaanxi Province, who picked up a cultural relic and handed it over to the country.

From 20/kloc to 0/4, Li Lei was an ordinary employee in a cement factory, and his daily job was to screen sand.

The day's work was the same as usual, but when sifting sand, Li Lei found a long wooden stick in the sieve, and Li Lei went forward to extract it. He wanted to throw it away and continue to work. Unexpectedly, it was heavy and hard, which aroused Li Lei's strong curiosity. He fiddled with it for a long time but still didn't see what it was, so he had to put it on hold and continue his work.

The value of this bronze sword has been appraised by experts. It was discovered by Li Lei that Gu Jian was actually a bronze sword used by Chu people during the Warring States Period. Its sword is 47 cm long and its blade is 4 cm wide. Moreover, the blade is extremely sharp after special treatment with chromium salt. After all these years, it can still be well preserved. I have to say that this bronze sword is valuable.

As the best-preserved bronze sword unearthed in Shaanxi province in recent years, the rich man who wanted to spend hundreds of thousands to buy it was naturally sincere, but in Li Lei's view at that time, since the treasure was excavated from the land, it was natural to hand it in.

In order to be honest and kind as a farmer, Li Lei did not sell the sword to the rich, but sent it to the museum at the end of 10. After inspection by museum staff, it is indeed a bronze sword of Chu State during the Warring States Period.

Because of this move, in order to reward Li Lei's behavior, the state also awarded him a certificate of honor and rewarded 500 yuan. But after returning to the company, some people said that Li Lei's move was actually giving up the opportunity to get rich overnight.

With more and more mocking voices, Li Lei actually has uneasy thoughts in his heart.
