What kind of story is there about Lingbi Stone?

It is said that the year before last, there was a Shanghai strange stone collector who bought the Lingbi stone named "Feng as the head" for 5,000 yuan, which was bought by an American professor for $80,000 last year, and its value has soared to $300,000 this year.

According to a few of my old classmates who joined the queue in the rural areas of Anhui in the 60s of the last century, when they were working in the rural areas of Anhui, they often dug up Lingbi stones when they were hoeing, and some people picked up the dormitories as decorations when they saw the shape or appearance, and they were criticized as petty bourgeoisie, while most of them simply abandoned them like pieces. Because a few dimes or a pack of Pegasus brand cigarettes (the price at the time) was enough to exchange for a pretty good Lingbi stone.

When they return to Shanghai for the Spring Festival, the vast majority of people would rather bring more than ten or twenty catties of peanuts home to share with relatives and friends, and never think of bringing a piece of Lingbi stone back to Shanghai to smell beautiful! The intellectuals even reached a consensus that only the poorest (who can't even afford a few cents a pound of peanuts) and the stupidest (the Lingbi stone is heavy and difficult to carry) will travel thousands of miles (from the production team to the commune), take a car (from the commune to the county), and then take the train to Shanghai to carry the Lingbi stone home.

However, things have changed, who would have thought that the Lingbi Stone, which no one cared about back then, is now worth a hundred times, or even a thousand times. It is said that a few "poor and stupid" educated youths who were ridiculed back then have not only made a small fortune and a big fortune with a few Lingbi stones back then, but have even become rich and collectors.

It's really ten years in Hedong and ten years in Hexi, troubled times, and prosperous collections.

<> "This gray Lingbi stone, shaped like a golden monkey born, the shape is realistic, the shape is perfect and vivid, the body hair, the facial features and limbs are complete, the stone is an eight-tone stone, gently knocking on each part of the sound is different, ** family said that it can knock out the score.

Lingbi stone is the first of the four famous stones in China in terms of historical performance and modern collection value, Lingbi stone has been recognized as the best stone for chime making three thousand years ago, and it has been mined and utilized in large quantities.

From 1950, the Shang Dynasty "tiger striped stone chime" unearthed by the hermits in Yinxu in Anyang, Henan Province is the evidence of the real thing.

This "tiger striped stone chime" is 84 centimeters long, 42 centimeters tall and 42 centimeters thick, and it is named after the tiger stripe decorative pattern engraved on it.

This chime was unearthed in a tomb of King Yin, and experts believe that this piece was originally a ceremonial heavy weapon used by the Yin royal family.

And it is confirmed that it is made of Lingbi chime stone.

The "Tiger Striped Stone Chime" is now in the collection of the Chinese History Museum, is listed as a national treasure, and is included in the "National Treasure Grand View" of China's "first national treasure appreciation book written by Zheng Yanjia".

The Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications of the People's Republic of China also printed commemorative stamps for issuance.

In modern times, not only the formation of a professional Lingbi stone market and even online has also set up a special Lingbi stone sales and identification platform, but both online and offline its credibility is also uneven, with the evaluation and identification of many netizens, there are also several more credible and famous: Guardian**, Yishi network, Bobao art network, etc.
