Speaking of this leader, his origin is not simple. Although I couldn't get rid of herding sheep for the rich man in my childhood, I became a tiger after all. He is Li Zicheng who launched the peasant war in the late Ming Dynasty. At that time, in that dynasty, it was really by our own efforts that a lot of waves were set off. Li Zicheng's real name is Li Hongji, and his nickname is Ryle Huang. Of course, he can also be called jujube, which sounds a little sweet and sour. Born in stability, grew up in troubled times and died in troubled times. A little mission. This man is a blessed man. During the war all the way, he was no longer short of money and searched countless treasures.
In the second year of Chongzhen, a mutiny was launched. With personal bravery and good fighting skills, he successfully became a member of Chu Zhuangwang's Iliad. I have to say, he really succeeded all the way and was very lucky. After Wang Chuang's death, where can he sit still? Directly take the lead, and claim to be king. The death of the king of Zhuang zi and Zhuang zi was exactly what Li Zicheng wanted. After Li Zicheng acceded to the throne, he was able to recruit talents for his own use.
Some of them are very prominent, such as Yan Li, who put forward the idea of land equalization and tax exemption, which was welcomed by the people as soon as it came out. People don't want more land and less taxes. Mastering the true will of the people skillfully, it is difficult to win the hearts of the people. This is not to win the determination of millions of people to follow Li Zicheng. At that time, the Ming Dynasty was exhausted, and Li Zicheng rode all the way, directly overthrowing the rule of the Ming Dynasty.
In such a battle all the way, in the chaotic war all the way. Smart Li Zicheng won't forget to collect money for himself. That's why there's this story about his treasure. Experts also have different opinions. The loudest one is that he hid the treasure in Guanyin Mountain in Zhangjiajie. Before Zhangjiajie became a famous scenic spot, it was sparsely populated and economically backward.
In this case, let's first analyze the geographical conditions of Guanyin Mountain in Zhangjiajie, and whether it has this hiding ability. Located in Hunan Province, this mountain is the dividing line between karst landform and karst cave landscape. Due to the dangerous terrain, it has not been developed. Although it is located in Zhangjiajie tourist area, it has not been developed because of the harsh natural environment and is not easy to be played by people. This is like Siguniang Mountain in Sichuan, which has only three ditches, and the real Siguniang Mountain has not yet been developed. Only those brave and strong mountain climbers stay to explore. It is precisely because of this situation that Li Zicheng has increased the possibility of choosing to hide treasure here. That place where everyone can pass by, where everyone can find the hidden treasure casually, and it is not a stupid thing that Li Zicheng's IQ can do.
More than ten years ago, a scenic spot investigation team of Yongding County Village Committee in Zhangjiajie found a pasted hole when investigating Guanyin Mountain. This aroused the strong curiosity of the investigation team, and everything had to be taken apart to see if it was in line with the spirit of exploration. They heard from the local villagers that the cave had been closed for hundreds of years. Driven by curiosity, people can do anything, and it took a lot of effort to pry open the cave door to find out. It doesn't matter. What matters is that they discovered the little secret left by Li Zicheng many years ago.
They looked at the hole while digging and kept digging. Take out a lot of gold and silver jewelry in a small ear hole. Haha, boy, isn't this half of Li Zicheng's "endowment insurance"? Anyway, they didn't take it for themselves and handed it over to the Hunan Provincial Bureau of Cultural Relics. After intense appraisal, it is determined that these jewels are not ordinary commodities, but court ornaments of the Yuan and Ming Dynasties. The total value is more than 70 million, which is really an amazing discovery.
After Li Zicheng's defeat, he called his confidants to arrange the funeral. In order to avoid disaster, they lived alone and fled all the way to Shimen. Although their later operation was a bit magical, I still want to mention that they became monks! It's really to avoid a perfect solution ... the temple is relatively safe and convenient to hide. When the Qing army cleaned up the remains, it really didn't find Li Zicheng. Of course, due to the departure of his confidant Li, he left the temple and went to other places, failing to protect Li Zicheng and attracting troops. It was really touching. It seems that Li Zicheng has a way to buy people's hearts, and so do the loyal ministers who work for him.
According to Li Zicheng's entrustment, Li quietly rented a boat and collected more than 100 figureheads. Take back an unusually heavy box from the escort agency and carry it to the boat. Taking advantage of the dark wind and high night, a group of them set off. According to historical records, Li is quite handsome, but besides being handsome, he is also very responsible. I have been worried about how to live up to the high expectations of my host family and deliver so many gold, silver and jewels I robbed safely. Wait until one day, they can make a comeback and start over.
The situation didn't go as well as he expected, but it got worse and worse, and their organization collapsed directly. He died directly because of excessive anxiety. As for where the treasure is, it is unknown. The Guanyin Mountain discovered this time may also be Li's hiding place.
As an ancient man, Li Zhi realized the cash thinking of not putting eggs in one basket, and the location of treasure hiding was not limited to Guanyin Mountain. Another place was found in Lechang, Guangdong. In 200 1 year, Shiping Town was suddenly hit by heavy rain. Under the impact of mountain torrents, in addition to mudslides, a large number of silver and ingots were washed down. The weight can reach dozens of pounds, and the value is also very considerable. Today, many villagers still have silver dollars washed down by the rainstorm that year. Fortunately, I didn't ask for compulsory confiscation. Otherwise, if I am caught in a rainstorm, it would be a bit inhumane to take compensation from God.
Many people are also studying whether the treasures of Li Zicheng and Zhang are better or flatter. According to Li's historical documents, the value of Li Zicheng's treasures is about 654.38+000 billion taels of silver. If gold and silver are mixed together, it is about 654.38+000 billion RMB. The 200 million pieces of silver that treaty of shimonoseki signed in the Qing Dynasty were not as much as the 100 million pieces of gold and silver in Li Zicheng. Treaty of shimonoseki demanded compensation for seven years, and it was not paid in full until it perished. In this way, Zhang's treasure is obviously not as much as Li Zicheng's. And further infer that Li Zicheng's profligate wealth is considerable.
According to textual research, Li Zicheng almost swept away the treasures accumulated in the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years. The imperial palace of the Ming Dynasty was looted and the national treasury was directly searched. It took 6000 cars to pack the jewels. There are 72 million pieces of looted silver alone, and countless gold and silver jewelry. After being looted, they swaggered away, and the Qing army's pursuit of this treasure ended in vain. Left a lot of treasure strongholds. In fact, it is understandable that there are too many hidden treasures.
It is rumored that the first bucket of gold from the Kang family of Shanxi merchants came from Li Zicheng. Jin Yong also mentioned the treasures of Li Zicheng, as well as those hidden in the customs. Some historians jointly investigate and develop with CCTV. In fact, many southern provinces have Li Zhicheng's treasures, but Hunan, Hubei and Guangdong have the most. The most controversial treasure is Lechang. The source of Lechang treasure is not necessarily from Li Zicheng, but most likely from Taiping Heavenly Kingdom or Zeng Guofan.

With the rapid development of modern science and technology, scientific and technological equipment has become increasingly sophisticated. It is estimated that in the near future, Li Zicheng and his undiscovered treasure, which have been sleeping for a long time, are waiting together for the day when they see the light of day and show it to the Chinese people. Wealth is tempting, but it has to be restrained in order to flow smoothly.
