The tableware would have been in Germany's major palaces, and if it weren't for the experience of the two world wars, the porcelain would still be in those palaces.

But it is precisely because it has experienced two world wars and has been occupied by the British, French, American, and Soviet armies several times.

The porcelain, which was used by Emperor Fredet I, was either destroyed in battle or looted by the later occupiers.

However, in recent decades, there has been no such porcelain transaction on the market, so Jin Muchen estimated that those porcelains were either destroyed in the war or should have been collected by large collectors.

And now these three sets in my hands, I dare not say that it is the only one left, but also should be the rare precious real product in the world, if it is really put up for auction, I don't know how much the price can be auctioned?

But these, Jin Muchen just thinks about it, like this treasure of the national treasure of a European and American powerhouse, he is reluctant to take it out and sell it, after all, he is also playing antiques, so he likes it and collects it first, anyway, he is not short of money now.

As for how these three sets of tableware came to China across the ocean, Jin Muchen deduced that it may also be related to the experience of the German colonization of Jade Bird City.

Before World War I, Germany occupied Bluebird and built a city here, and the first governor of this colonial city was Prince Henry, the younger brother of King Wilhelm II of Germany, who started World War I.

When Prince Henry came to the Far East, Wilhelm II had high hopes for him, hoping that he would be able to secure an anchorage for German warships in the Far East.

And Prince Henry did not disappoint the German king. After a few months of drifting at sea. Came to the Far East to find an excuse. and took possession of the bluebird.

When Wilhelm II heard the news, he was overjoyed and sent a telegram directly from Berlin appointing Prince Henry as commander-in-chief of the Jiaoao colony.

It was also under the strong leadership of this prince that the Germans began to build the city of Blue Bird, but at that time the city had just been developed, and in the eyes of the Germans it was a small fishing village, a wild place, and the younger brother of the king who was a royal prince. But he couldn't stand such suffering, so it wasn't long before the Prince of Henry hung up his seal and left, giving up his place to Torbol.

Presumably, these three sets of tableware should have followed Prince Henry across the ocean and came to the Blue Bird, but later for some reason, they did not leave with Prince Henry, but stayed in the Blue Bird.

It is even very likely that Zài has been preserved in the later Jiaoao Governor's Palace. It's just that later on, Blue Bird City also experienced frequent wars, especially after the outbreak of World War I. The Japanese invaded the blue bird, and it may have been at that time that these three sets of porcelain fell to the people.

It wasn't until more than a hundred years later that he discovered it by himself.

This is Jin Muchen's guess about the origin of these three sets of utensils, although it may not be accurate, but it should be roughly consistent with the history of that year.

"Hani, are you still studying the pieces of porcelain you collected yesterday?"

I don't know when, Candace has returned to the hotel room, looked at Jin Muchen who was still sitting in front of the computer and asked.

"Yes! Hey? When did you get back? ”

"Just now, you didn't even hear anything you studied too intently."

Candace raised his mouth and said, Jin Muchen also knew that his dedication to research must have neglected the beauty, which made Candace dissatisfied, so he hurriedly walked forward with a smile and gave her a warm hug.

Candace responded warmly, the delicate body in his arms was full of youthful vitality, Jin Muchen felt that he shouldn't waste such a good time, picked up Candace, and walked into the bedroom amid her coquettish laughter......

He has been in Jade Bird City for a few more days, but Jin Muchen has not gone to Changle Road Market again in the past few days, on the one hand, because he has picked up the treasure twice, he is already content, and on the other hand, he also has to take time out to accompany Candace well.

There are opportunities to make money, but the time with Candace can't be wasted, and when they meet the United States, Candace will start school.

Next school year will be Candace's last semester at school, and she will be very busy, and the two of them will not have much time to get together.

So now that we have been together for so long, of course we have to enjoy the time.

After playing in Blue Bird City for another five days, Jin Muchen drove Candace all the way south and killed directly to Jiangnan.

When passing by Jinling, I stopped to play for a few days, Jinling is also the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, and it is also a city with a long history, and it also has a very deep ancient charm of cultural play, originally Jin Muchen also wanted to sweep here.

But when Candace arrived here, he had a problem of not adapting to the water and soil, and he didn't know what he ate, and he was unwell, so he lay in the hotel for a few days.

Jin Muchen could only take care of her in the hotel, and the gate didn't go out of the door, and after Candace recovered, the two didn't have the heart to continue shopping in the city, but got in the car and went straight to Yi@Wu, the destination of their trip to Jiangnan!

Needless to say, the reputation of this city can be said to be the largest wholesale market for small commodities in the world, but Jin Muchen has only heard of it before, and has never been here in person, and only after coming here can he feel the vitality of the city.

There are people everywhere, buyers from all over the world, and the goods here can be said to be everything, as long as you can think of small civilian goods, you can find them all here.

Of course, they did not come this time for these small commodities, but for the purpose of their obligation, which was to purchase a batch of oil paintings at relatively low prices.

Before coming, Jin Muchen also looked up a lot of information about the oil painting factory here on the Internet, and knew that there was a Dadong Village here that specialized in mass production of oil paintings.

So he looked for it directly according to the car navigation, but when he got to the place, he found that these factories were very different from what he imagined.

Originally, the oil painting factory he imagined should be a large factory, and then there were many painters in it, sitting there copying some world-famous paintings together, or each creating according to their own ideas.

But when I looked at the factory, it wasn't like that at all.

"Most of the creative factories have been eliminated, and now we have digital oil paintings popular."

When visiting a factory, the boss of the factory, Mr. Wang, introduced him.

The so-called digital oil painting, in fact, is a special process to process the canvas into lines and digital symbols, the painter only needs to fill in the corresponding number of pigments in the coloring area marked with the number, you can complete the hand-painted products, the birth of this technology, in fact, is to let people who do not have a little artistic foundation, can paint exquisite oil paintings, in fact, it is to copy the original hand-copied oil painting, completely into a production line.

In fact, to put it bluntly, such an oil painting is similar to the cross-stitch that women like to play.

Jin Muchen had never been in contact with this industry before, so he really didn't know much about it, but now this kind of oil painting has become normalized here.

"Boss, it's not that we don't want that kind of factory, it's just that the cost of that kind of factory is too high, and we are a small place, so it's hard to attract and retain talent. At the beginning, our oil painting factories here were all imitations of pure manual work, but those painters generally chose to leave after working for a few months, and you also know that those painters are engaged in art, and they stay in one place for a short time, and secondly, they also think that we give low wages, but we also want to give high wages, but we can't afford it! After all, we are import and export foreign trade enterprises, cost control is very critical, and then there was the emergence of such mechanical printing oil paintings, in recent years, like you said that the imitation of manual painting, has basically disappeared here. Although our oil paintings are digital oil paintings, they are not purely hand-copied, but they also have one advantage, that is, the cost is low! Boss, why don't you go back in first and sell it? If it works well, you can place your order directly online next time. ”

This Boss Wang was very enthusiastic to introduce Jin Muchen, Jin Muchen nodded, but he didn't make a decision on the spot.

Instead, I selected a few samples from the factory and brought them back to the hotel, just to take a closer look at the difference between such oil paintings and handmade oil paintings.

"The paintings are so delicate that they are even as accurate as the originals, but they always feel like something is missing?"

In the evening, Jin Muchen and Candace sat on the sofa in the hotel suite, looking at the few samples in front of them, as well as the original handmade paintings, Candace took the lead in speaking, and Jin Muchen also nodded.

He has extraordinary vision, and after the last experience of participating in an art exhibition with Helen, he also has a new understanding of the art of oil painting.

"The oil paintings produced on these assembly lines lack a kind of emotion compared to pure handmade paintings. The assembly line is a cold production process, and workers only need to follow the program to add color to the spaces that are divided into canvases. As for handmade paintings, even if the painter copies the works of other painters, but in the process of copying, he will also integrate his own feelings, joys, sorrows, and sorrows, so the pure handmade oil paintings will look more vivid, while the oil paintings produced on these assembly lines are much more rigid. ”

After listening to Jin Muchen's comments, Candace nodded.

"Listening to you, it seems to be true. These paintings, no matter how you look at them, seem to lack such a breath of life. So what to do? Aren't you going to buy paintings here? ”

Candace couldn't help but feel worried about the purpose of Jin Muchen's trip, after all, they came this time to buy oil paintings and open up purchase channels. (To be continued......)
