Chapter 192: Jingkang Relic
Soon, Qu Wang came again, crying and sad, and had to ask Pearl to give her two women's watches. This makes Pearl a little embarrassed, because these very beautiful women's watches are quartz watches, and they have to put batteries in them, no way, anyway, the shops and supermarkets that sell watches have a lot of electronics, so they sent some more electronics. These two watches were obviously lighter and more beautiful than the last two mechanical watches I had given, and after that, I had a few carts of fabric for Pearl.
Among them, 120 horses of various colors of spinning silk, 20 horses of various colors of flash satin, 200 horses of various colors of river silk silk satin, Hangzhou yarn, spring silk, crepe spring yarn, 200 horses of various colors of fine silk, 200 horses of various colors of satin, 200 horses of folded branch brocade, 200 horses of cloud brocade and Shu brocade. 210 pieces of silk yarn of various colors, 210 horses of velvet, 200 pieces of palace silk, palace cotton, palace satin, 300 cloud satin, python satin, makeup satin, gold flower satin, cicada wing yarn, soft smoke, pomegranate silk and other 600 horses. This Qu Wang's ability is really great!
For this, Pearl is very satisfied, Qu Wang's business will not lose money, but there is some friendship here. Not to mention anything else, he knows the value of those jewelry, and there are those egg-sized pearls inlaid in the frame, which are worth tens of millions, for this, Qu Wang has hollowed out his family! But it's about to be the queen mother's birthday, and then it's the emperor's birthday. These things are bound to be useful. In addition, the rich salt merchants in Suzhou and Hangzhou changed hands for silver.
Pearl is about to prepare something for Shopkeeper Liu, and the mirror she gave him is also a mirror, but unlike Qu Wang, the mirror frame given to him is a white, ordinary mirror. It is inlaid with pearls and precious stones, no jade, and large red coral beads, small colored pearls, tourmaline and crystal, peridot, garnet, etc., which is very in line with the Western style. The high-end vanity mirror is also silver-gilt or silver, with a very delicate pattern on the base, and is also inlaid with various colorful gemstones, such as ruby sapphires, coral, amber, diamonds and opals, etc., and the most rare thing is that there are two mirrors with a large pearl placed on the top. It's the size of an egg!
The new fabrics for Shopkeeper Liu are also ready. Anyway, when Zhao Qingyu didn't want these, when Tom came, the new goods also came out at that time, except for the more than 580 horses left in his favorite. The rest is going to be given to Shopkeeper Liu. Pearl didn't have to give him a mirror this time. Instead, he was given two large, round, flawless milky pearls the size of an egg. In addition, there are 12 20mm white flawless freshwater pearls.
A pearl crown specially made for the queen of foreigners, using more than 800 pearls. There are also two diamond tiaras, an emerald tiara, the emeralds on the top are more than three carats, there are twenty-eight, colored diamond necklaces plus earrings and rings two sets. A necklace and bracelet made of multi-colored crystals and diamonds, as well as a ring set.
Then I chose some of the more than 10,000 pieces of fabric I bought, as well as the fabric from the silk shop I bought. The things I bought last time I went bankrupt not only include antique calligraphy and paintings, but also two cloth shops, a fur shop, and a jade shop are more expensive, worth 70 million! Pearl chose some things she didn't like, plus her own factory made them, and a full set of cosmetics. It's all handled by Shopkeeper Liu.
Shopkeeper Liu discussed with the pearl, and finally decided, give the pearl 11 million taels of gold, 9.8 million taels of silver, think that the big pearl is a peerless treasure, worth 20 million taels! I also gave two more, and 12 treasure-level beads! There was also a crown of 1,200 pearls, as well as other diamond crowns and gemstone jewelry, and the most important thing was those medicines, as well as new fabrics, and those tribute satins that could only be found in the court, of course, these silver and gold were not enough, and the pearls were not very happy, plus the shopkeeper Liu also wanted a large number of medicines for the treatment of the Black Death and other diseases, so he quickly took out the list in his arms and handed it to the pearls.
When Pearl saw it, he smiled, this shopkeeper Liu did business for the Russians, and he was really generous, these things were not something he could take out. It reads,
First, fur, 10 yuan foxes, 500 color foxes, 6,000 miscellaneous foxes, and 600 mink furs.
Second, medicinal materials, 800 ginseng, including 8 ginseng more than 1,000 years old, 76 ginseng more than 500 years old, several tiger bones, 500 kilograms of various types of Ganoderma lucidum, 650 kilograms of cordyceps, bear bile, deer fetus, Ejiao and antelope horns. There are 500 catties of matsutake mushrooms, 60 pieces of He Shou Wu that are about 500 years old, and 160 pieces that are less than 500 years old. Deer fetus, bear bile, and of course, more than 600 catties of other medicinal materials.
Three, diamonds, alexandrite, opal, emerald, topaz, chrysoprase, amber and beeswax, etc., packed sixteen chests. This is when the pearl gave the medicine.
However, just before Shopkeeper Liu was about to leave, he turned back to Pearl and said, "My old friend has a set of "Historical Records" to "Song Books", all of which are Song editions, with a total of 88 books and 2,613 books. Of course, Madame doesn't need to ask how this came about, I have found someone to identify it, it is absolutely true, and there are more than 1,400 rare books of calligraphy and painting, etc., you see......"
And this good thing! Don't miss out! So he asked, "I don't know what this seller likes?" ”
"This ...... I'll tell you the truth! It's the Hu people, the Mongols, they kidnapped the two emperors of the Song Dynasty and many ministers, those gold, silver and jewelry, they naturally left, but the calligraphy and painting of this book, and even the calligraphy and painting of Emperor Huizong, in their eyes are no different from waste paper, I know, I said that I want these things, and their single doesn't care, but Shan Yu's Yan family likes jewelry. I wonder if Madame is willing to do this business? ”
"Did you bring everything?"
"That's natural, it's a long way, I have to bring it, I have cooperated with my wife for so long, and I know that my wife is a talented woman, she must like it, and she must be willing to pay a lot of money."
"Hehe, shopkeeper Liu, you really know me, don't worry, your benefits are indispensable. Send it to my outhouse tomorrow and I'll take what you want. ”
"Then it's settled." Shopkeeper Liu was very happy,
Pearl smiled and nodded, and sent away Shopkeeper Liu. Thinking in my heart. What do you exchange for high? After thinking about it, he remembered the loot that Liu He sent him in the past. Those are all precious jewelry that Hu people like, the style makes the pearls feel a little rough, and all of them are reprocessed by people, and it is absolutely okay to make a box. As for the shopkeeper Liu! Let's give two necklaces with a diameter of about 8mm! This is also worth more than 100,000.
The next day, Pearl saw the things brought by Shopkeeper Liu, and she was scared silly, why are there so many! In addition to the 88 books and 2,613 books, I also received more books from the Tang and Song dynasties or even earlier. Among them are also bamboo slips. The handscroll album of ancient and modern famous paintings, a total of 3,201 scrolls, including two famous paintings from the Jin Dynasty to the Great Liang, such as the "Portrait of Wei Suo" by Gu Kaizhi of the Jin Dynasty and the "Female History Zhen Tu" painted by the Jin people. Tang Wu Daozi's "Nanyue Tu", Yan Liben's "Gonggong Tu", Li Sixun's "Xianshan Pavilion", Song Huizong's "Autumn Eagle", and so on. It's all famous.
358 scrolls of various copybooks. These include Wang Xizhi's post, Chu Suiliang's Ni Kuanzan post, Zhang Xuchun's grass post, Yan Zhenqing's book, Liu Gongquan's human scripture, Huaisu's self-report post, Su Dongpo's Chibi Fu, Huang Tingjian's seated post, Lu Youci's Han post, etc. Three hundred and fifty-eight scrolls of ink engraving. One of the most famous is this "Qingming Riverside Map". There are also Song Huizong's calligraphy, there are more than 100 pieces, the content. It's all about grazing the flames and thanking those Hu people for their rewards, it's really embarrassing, and it's not counted.
There are 27,308 fan handles of various colors, 4,340 gold hinged Sichuan fans alone, 10,007 silver hinged Sichuan fans, 237 pieces of high ancient jade, etc., probably because people think this jade is not good-looking. There are jade tripods, jade cups, pieces and jade plates, jade rings and so on.
There are also 54 ancient and modern famous pianos: the Golden Emblem Crystal Zhenzu Qin, the Xiantong Baoqin, the Jade Pot Ice Qin, the Spring Snow Qin, etc., only the Golden Emblem Jade Zhen Broken Pattern Qin is as many as nine. Sixteen ancient inkstones, there are Han Weiyang Palace tile inkstone, rare treasures of copper bird platform tile inkstone, etc. Not only these, but also Confucian books, temple classics, scriptures and other books, totaling 5,852 sets, "Taoist Buddha scriptures", a total of 914 sets, originally such books should be sent to Confucianism, temples and temples to store, for recitation, but they were plundered to the grassland.
There are so many things, those Mongolians don't know their value, but Shopkeeper Liu understands that the box of Mongolian jewelry he prepared is too little. In addition to these reprocessed jewelry from Mongolia, the pearl picked three boxes of unsightly ones from the shop that I bought in the past, and packed them for them, and these jewelry for them can not be processed again, but they have been re-gilded and electroplated, which is definitely the same as new, because the gems on it are not perfect, all put aside, and this is a good time.
Shopkeeper Liu looked at the four boxes of jewelry inlaid with gold and treasures very satisfied, and the pearl added ten pieces of streamer brocade, and the transaction was completed, the pearl gave the shopkeeper Liu two two necklaces, and sure enough, the old guy smiled, the price of these two necklaces will not be less than 100,000 taels of silver!
When the shopkeeper Liu left, Pearl asked people to put these things in the warehouse, and then put them into their own space, leaving only the set of Song version of the "Historical Records" to the "Book of Song", a total of 88 books and 2613 books. Pearl thinks she's made a fortune this time. If Ming Qian saw these things, he didn't know how happy he would be!
Not long after, Liu Qing asked another big dart board, as well as the twenty guards he sent back, to send something to Pearl, this thing is what Pearl has always wanted, that is, lacquerware, divided into 14 categories, a total of 1129 pieces. There is a color of lacquerware, cover paint, painted paint, painted gold, pile paint, lacquer, carved fill, luodian, rhino skin, red, rhino, color, gold, treasure inlay, etc.
The main products are vases, plates, boxes, smoking sets, holding boxes, snack boxes, tea sets and a variety of cabinets, screens, small tables and other nearly 100 varieties of colors, especially the full hall embedded luodian screen, beautiful shape, fine workmanship, elegant ornamentation, really beautiful. These lacquerware are very expensive, Liu Qing's money has been spent, and he owes a lot of credit, Pearl is happy to reimburse, and let people bring him back another 200,000 taels of silver, and buy it back when he sees good things. Especially high-quality dendrobium, dendrobium is divided into: Huoshan dendrobium, dendrobium nobile, dendrobium officinalis, purple skin dendrobium, medicinal dendrobium is not dendrobium. And iron sheet is a good choice for health care. Due to the small amount and high price of Huoshan dendrobium, it is difficult to buy it on the market, but we must find a way, how many there are, as well as gastrodia, ejiao, notoginseng and seahorse, etc.
This time, there was a lot of lacquerware, and only a dozen or so pieces of pearls remained, and the rest was made to the floor where bags and shoes were sold, and a few storefronts were set up to send all these things in. Seeing those shoes, Pearl felt that their girder was unacceptable, but if they were shipped to Europe for Tom and Liu, there would definitely be a market. (To be continued......)
