Lin Yiqing carefully looked at the landscape scenery on the pastel celestial ball bottle in front of him and the poems next to him, and suddenly understood.

"I didn't expect to see the treasures in the royal gardens of the past today, it's really a blessing." Lin Yiqing put down the Tianqiu bottle in his hand and turned to the shopkeeper with a smile.

When the shopkeeper saw Lin Yiqing tell the identity of the Tianqiu Bottle, his heart was shocked, but the expression on his face remained unchanged at all, and he still had a smile on his face.

"The guest has good eyesight, hehe, I only know that these porcelains are from the royal family, whether they are treasures in the garden, I really can't say, I don't know how the guests see it?" The shopkeeper said with a smile, motioned to the servant to open all the boxes, took all the porcelain inside, and placed them in front of Lin Yiqing.

"I guessed too," Lin Yiqing showed an unfathomable smile, "The painting on this bottle is the scenery of the royal garden, and this bottle, whether it is porcelain enamel or painting, is all exquisite and exquisite, and it cannot be made by non-royal people." ”

"What the guest said is that these porcelains are indeed treasures of the royal family, but I am short-sighted and don't know what the scenery of the royal garden is, so I can't tell the difference." The shopkeeper looked at Lin Yiqing and said, "It's still the guest who has seen the broadcast, and the guest thinks that he has been to the royal garden, and he knows the scene painted on this bottle, right?" ”

Lin Yiqing just smiled and didn't answer.

"This batch of rare porcelain, I am willing to sell all of it to the guests, the guests don't know if they have any intentions?" The shopkeeper asked again.

"Dare to ask sir, you are also a master of Tibetan porcelain, so precious porcelain, why don't you collect it yourself, but resell it to others?" Lin Yiqing asked with a smile, "You know." I am also a person who loves porcelain as much as my life. Even though I know that it is a treasure of the royal family in the past. I can't wait to sleep with him every day, how can I be willing to sell it to others? ”

"What the guest said is that I have no choice but to sell this batch of precious porcelain without hiding it from the guest." The shopkeeper sighed and said, "I took these precious porcelain by accident from a bankrupt merchant. At that time, I only felt that this batch of porcelain was burned very well, although it was an official kiln, but there was no official kiln knowledge, and I wanted to use it as a sample of porcelain, but an old craftsman I knew was the same as the guest, with superb eyesight, and recognized that these porcelains belonged to the royal family. Either destroy it or don't keep it private. Otherwise, once the news spreads and is known to others, the government will investigate it, and there will be a big disaster. I thought about it, and I was reluctant to let such treasures be destroyed in my hands, so I hid them privately and kept them secret. However, after a long time, I finally felt that it was inappropriate, so I wanted to find someone who was destined to sell it, but it was a matter of heart. ”

"Why doesn't the gentleman offer it to the royal family? Helping the royal family recover the old collection is a great achievement, and the royal family will be rewarded. Lin Yiqing asked puzzledly, "Why did Mr. take the risk of selling it?" And Mr. knows a lot of Tibetan porcelain, why do you want to sell it to me? ”

"Hehe, the guest said well, dedicated to the royal family, can indeed be rewarded, but the guest does not know, if I offer the government, the government will inevitably ask its origin, if the answer is not careful, not only the bamboo basket is empty, but may be convicted of it. I am a porcelain merchant, and I am soft-spoken, and there will be no big trouble when the time comes. The shopkeeper replied, "And when I bought them, I also spent a lot of money, so I naturally didn't want to lose all my money." And the reason why we don't sell to others, but want to sell to customers, is because ......"

The shopkeeper looked at Lin Yiqing with a smile, and said with a smile: "You are a person who can reach the heavens, if you get these porcelains and hand them over to the royal family, it will definitely be of great benefit, and it will be much better than paying them over to someone like me." I will give up this batch of porcelain, take back the money, the price of the guests is fair, and I can hand over the national treasure porcelain to the royal family for reward, this is the best of both worlds, I naturally will not let go of such a good customer as a guest! ”

Hearing the shopkeeper say this, Lin Yiqing understood that the other party must have recognized his identity, and couldn't help laughing.

"Sir is really quick to talk, then I won't be polite to Mr." Lin Yiqing smiled and nodded, "Please also ask Mr. to bid, I want all these precious porcelain, and when I turn around, I will hand it over to the royal family as Mr. said, so that it can return to its hometown, as for the royal reward...... Hehe, serving the emperor, rewarding or not, these are the duties of a courtier. ”

The shopkeeper immediately offered the price, and Lin Yiqing wrote a check from Rothchild Bank and handed it to the shopkeeper, who was overjoyed when he saw the check, and immediately asked someone to re-seal all these precious porcelains in front of Lin Yiqing and hand them over to Lin Yiqing's servants to send back to Lin's ancestral home.

Lin Yiqing chatted with the shopkeeper again, and the shopkeeper officially handed Lin Yiqing a name card at this time, his name is Zhou Guangrui, and he is a famous porcelain maker of the previous dynasty Zhou Danquan. The two talked speculatively, so Zhou Guangrui invited Lin Yiqing to his secret room and took out some of his other private treasures for Lin Yiqing to taste.

Zhou Guangrui's collection of porcelain is very rich, not only ancient porcelain, but also a lot of contemporary masterpieces, which opened Lin Yiqing's eyes for a while.

Lin Yiqing enjoyed playing for a long time, and he didn't forget to return, until his stomach was slightly ringing, and then he realized that it might be time for lunch to eat, and he was about to say goodbye, but his eyes were suddenly attracted by a porcelain statue in the corner.

It was a porcelain statue of a naked woman, life-size, originally covered with red veil, but because the wind blew in through the window and blew the red veil off, it showed its true face.

Lin Yiqing involuntarily walked in front of the porcelain statue and admired it carefully.

This is a porcelain statue of a young woman, different from the freehand portrait of the ladies of the Qianguo that Lin Yiqing saw in the past, the style of this porcelain statue is more realistic, not only the proportions of the human body are extremely accurate, but the facial expressions and body movements are also extremely vivid, which can be compared with the famous stone statue of Venus in Lin Yiqing's original time and space.

"Lord Lin, what do you think of this porcelain statue?" Zhou Guangrui noticed the change in Lin Yiqing's expression and asked with a smile.

"It's beautiful...... It's like a real person......" Lin Yiqing admired from the bottom of his heart.

"Beauty is indeed beauty, but there is no clothing to cover the body, and it is a little indecent after all. I didn't show it to Lord Lin just now. Zhou Guangrui said with a smile.

"I see this porcelain statue resembling a real person. I don't know what to do? Lin Yiqing was curious why someone would spend so much effort to make such a highly realistic porcelain statue of a young woman in this era. He asked casually.

"Lord Lin doesn't know, this image is a tool for practicing medicine." Zhou Guangrui explained, "As adults know, most of today's doctors are men, and if the patient is a woman, and the disease is hidden, it is inconvenient. Female portraits are often shown to sick women, who point out the location of the disease so that they can understand the disease and treat it. Most of the statues of women used by ordinary doctors are made of ivory, and they are not easy to grasp, because their bodies are too small, and they do not understand the indication of diseases, so they were later made into such life-size statues to facilitate identification. ”

"I see. No wonder it's so realistic. Lin Yiqing looked at the two points of red at the twin peaks of the porcelain statue, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Even such a hidden part is vividly done. At first sight, it is clear that the maker of this porcelain statue is a master......

"Lord Lin can know that this porcelain statue is made by Xiao Zhenren." Zhou Guangrui told Lin Yiqing about the origin of this woman's porcelain statue, "This woman's family has practiced medicine for generations, her father is a contemporary famous doctor, hanging pot to help the world, widely famous, but there is no child under the knee, there is only a daughter, is to pass on the medical skills to the woman, and the female doctor is also fine, and only for the woman to see a doctor, saved a lot of lives, but unfortunately the doctor is difficult to self-medicine, the day is not a holiday, the woman died at a young age, her father was very sad, and the people who received the favor of the woman had many rich families, in order to repay their virtue, they were funded to hire porcelain masters, made this statue, One is to soothe his father's longing, and the other is to commemorate the woman's medical virtues, and use this image as a tool for practicing medicine and saving people, and think it is the merit of the woman. It's just a pity that his father also died of illness, and his family no longer has the ability to practice medicine, so he sold this statue, and then transferred it to my hands and has collected it to this day. ”

Hearing Zhou Guangrui say that this porcelain statue of a woman turned out to be the remains of a young female doctor, Lin Yiqing's reverence rose spontaneously, and he solemnly saluted the porcelain statue and bowed three times.

"I really don't know what kind of craftsmanship it takes to make such a beautiful porcelain statue!" Lin Yiqing finished worshipping, stroked the shoulder of the porcelain statue with his hand, and couldn't help but sigh again, "This glaze is like the skin of a real person, I really don't know what kind of secret glaze is used to have such a touch!" ”

"Hehe, Lord Lin doesn't know, right? This porcelain statue is the famous 'bone china'! Zhou Guangrui saw that Lin Yiqing couldn't put it down, and he started to show off again.

"Bone china?" Lin Yiqing couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart when he heard him say the word "bone china".

"Yes! This is bone china! Zhou Guangrui said with a smile, "Because only the glaze prepared with real ashes can burn such a high-quality bone china!" ”

"Sir is saying, this ...... Is the glaze of the porcelain statue made from human ashes? Lin Yiqing was taken aback.

"yes!" Zhou Guangrui stepped forward and stroked the arm of the porcelain statue and said, "Like the glaze used for this porcelain statue, it is the ashes of this woman herself." If it is not the ashes of a young woman, they will never be burned in such a real and illusory condition! ”

Lin Yiqing understood, looked at the porcelain statue in front of him again, and suddenly flashed like lightning in his mind.

"I really don't know much about this bone china, so please tell me more about it." Lin Yiqing calmed down and said to Zhou Guangrui.

Zhou Guangrui talked endlessly about the history and manufacturing methods of bone china for Lin Yiqing, as well as how to identify bone china.

Lin Yiqing listened while asking questions about what he didn't understand, Zhou Guangrui answered them one by one, and the two talked for half an hour before stopping.

"If Lord Lin wants to find the real bone china and not be deceived by others, he still needs to have a real artifact as a test, so I will send a piece of bone china to Lord Lin here." Zhou Guangrui said and came to a cabinet, opened the cabinet door, took out a small porcelain statue inside, and handed it to Lin Yiqing.

This is also a porcelain statue of a young woman, only much smaller than Fang Cai's one, only half a foot high, but it is just as vivid and very cute.

"Lord Lin, do you see it, this is also made from the ashes of a young woman, in my experience, this woman is only fifteen or sixteen years old, younger than that woman's age, and the glaze of the fired porcelain is more white and sweet." Zhou Guangrui pointed to the small porcelain statue and compared it with the large porcelain statue, and said to Lin Yiqing.

Lin Yiqing took a closer look. Sure enough, as Zhou Guangrui said. I couldn't help but secretly sigh that this girl was so famous.

The two talked for a while. Lin Yiqing just said goodbye to Zhou Guangrui and left the porcelain shop, Lin Yiqing went straight to his residence, he wanted to quickly sort out what he had learned today, but he didn't expect that his harvest today had brought him close to the truth of the bloody case.

In the china shop, a young woman in a dress walked out of the back hall.

"Miss is really amazing. It's not bad at all with what Miss expected. Zhou Guangrui looked at Yoko Shimazu, his face full of admiration.

Yoko Shimazu just smiled slightly, "I just don't know why he's suddenly so interested in bone china?" She looked at the door after Lin Yiqing left, and said thoughtfully.

After sending away Yoko Shimazu, Zhou Guangrui, who was diligent, immediately arranged for someone to take the check written by Lin Yiqing and go to Rothchild Bank to withdraw money. The reason why he was so anxious was not because he was worried about the credit of foreign banks (the credit of foreign banks was actually better than the local bank ticket number), but because he was anxious to see the cash, because he really needed cash turnover for a while, and it was Shimazu Yoko who asked him to sell the batch of royal porcelain to Lin Yiqing. He agreed without hesitation.

"This Lord Lin's expenses are really big these days!"

After completing this payment transaction,
