"i am a villager from wanli village, mo'nan town, ruicheng county, yuncheng city, shanxi province. i am reporting our village chief comrade yang moumou under my real name." on september 8, an online real-name report from a villager in yuncheng, shanxi province attracted attention. the villager said that an ancient stele in the village was resold by the director of the village committee, and he recovered it after reporting it to the police.

a man claimed that he was a villager of wanli village, mo'nan town, ruicheng county, yuncheng city, shanxi province, and reported the village chief for reselling ancient tablets.

villagers reported:

village cadres "sell" cultural relics and ancient monuments in the village

after i called the police, i got it back

in the video, the whistleblower introduced himself as luo from wanli village. he said that the incident happened on august 24. that night, the village director yang did not agree with the villagers.he resold a centuries-old ancient stele in the village for 200,000 yuan.after learning about the situation, he called the police, who later recovered the stone tablet. he expressed his gratitude to the police and said that if the police had not intervened in time, the cultural relic would have been sold to other places.

the stone tablet in the video is irregular in shape

in the video, the stone tablet in question is not of the usual style, but is irregular in shape, with dozens of seal characters engraved on the polished surface on one side. because the video is not very clear, the specific content cannot be recognized.

on september 9, the whistleblower mr. luo was interviewed by a reporter from the huashang daily. he said,the stone tablet sold by the village cadres and others is more than 500 years old, is made of water-washed cliff stone. about five or six years ago, a villager in the village dug out this stone tablet when digging the foundation for building a house, and it has been planted in the village committee ever since.

"legend has it that an ancient general named yin came to our village and brought this stone tablet with him." mr. luo said that today, the yin family in their village is a large and prosperous family. he said that he heard that this stone tablet is a talisman to ward off evil spirits, but he does not know the specific content of the inscription on it.

mr. luo said that murakami sold the stone tablet on the evening of august 24 without informing the villagers at that time. when he heard about it, he went to the local police station twice to report the incident. fortunately, the police station intervened in time and successfully recovered the stone tablet not long ago.

"the stone tablet was sold to henan, but fortunately it was recovered." mr. luo said that after it was recovered, the village director said that it was decided by the village committee to sell it. "even if it was decided by the village committee, it is illegal. can the village committee decide the sale of cultural relics? why didn't they tell the villagers?" mr. luo has many doubts. he said that the value of the stone tablet is far more than 200,000 yuan. "the price of this stone tablet should be 700,000 or 800,000 yuan. the village committee did put 200,000 yuan into its account, but who knows if there is any other trick."

related responses:

200,000 yuan has been refunded to the buyer

police say the case is still under investigation

the cultural relics departments at the municipal and county levels have not yet intervened.

in this regard, the reporter of huashang daily dafeng news contacted the village director surnamed yang of wanli village several times, hoping to verify the situation described by mr. luo, but he did not respond. later, the reporter contacted mr. yin, the accountant of the village.

"it has indeed been recovered. i used the account and remitted 200,000 yuan to the other party's account." mr. yin said that he was not directly involved in the sale and recovery of the stone tablet at the time, but because he was the accountant of the village, he also knew about it because of the accounting issues. he said that the village director mr. yang was not directly involved, but it was sold by another village cadre and two villagers.

mr. yin introduced that he heard that the reason for selling the stone tablet was because the village committee discovered some time ago that the base of the stone tablet had signs of being pried open, "as if someone wanted to steal the stone tablet, so the villagers thought of simply selling it." the stone tablet was indeed sold to a place in henan, and the account amount was 200,000 yuan.

mr. yin said that as a member of the yin family, he firmly denied mr. luo's claim that the yin family's ancestors left the stone tablet. mr. yin provided another explanation to the reporter, "i don't know what's on it, but i heard that it was some words that the ancients gave to their friends to praise them."

there is an inscription engraved on the stone tablet

"he reported director yang because of the conflicting feelings he had when he failed in the previous election." the reporter learned from a villager that mr. luo had also participated in the village committee election before, but was unsuccessful in the end, "maybe because he was unhappy about this."

later, the reporter learned from the local police station that the case is still under investigation. as to whether the village committee's selling of the stone tablet constitutes reselling cultural relics, the police said that it is not yet certain whether it is reselling cultural relics.

in this regard, director jing, head of the ruicheng county cultural relics protection center, said that they have paid attention to this matter, but the county-level cultural relics protection center does not have the qualifications to identify cultural relics, so they have not intervened in the case at present.director wang, head of the yuncheng cultural relics protection center, said that the department has not paid attention to the matter so far and has not intervened. "the public security department needs to go through the identification procedures to identify cultural relics. it needs to file a case first before the cultural relic identification procedure can be initiated."
