After discovering two large Yuan Dynasty blue and white porcelain jars with figures, a Ming Dynasty Hongwu official kiln blue and white bowl with coiled flower patterns, and this set of four Chenghua doucai chicken-glazed cups, Yang Jing was so happy that he almost died.
I was just thinking that my collection of porcelain was a little small, and now so many of them have arrived all at once.
I opened four boxes in succession, all of which were national treasures. One box contained golden Buddha statues. Although they were Cambodian golden Buddha statues, they were all top-quality. Another box contained a set of Ming Dynasty handwritten Buddhist scriptures plus an imperial edict of Emperor Hongwu. Such neat handwritten Buddhist scriptures are absolutely rare in modern times. As for the last two boxes, they were all Ming Dynasty porcelain, including three sets of extremely precious treasures.
If calculated according to the classification of antiques by the Holy Ring, the imperial edict and the three sets of porcelain alone would be at least second-grade treasures. If taken out, they would be absolute national treasures!
Just the four boxes that had been opened already made Yang Jing extremely excited. What about the remaining three boxes? Would there be any unexpected treasures inside?
Yang Jing had no doubt about this. Based on the treasures in the first four boxes, even if there were differences in the treasures in the last three boxes, they would probably not be that different.
It was obvious that these treasures were carefully selected by people specially sent by the Japanese royal family. It could be seen from the outer packaging alone that these treasures were probably intended to be given to the Japanese emperor. Unexpectedly, their emperor was directly dealt with by two mushroom bombs from the Americans. The speed of surrender was so fast that these treasures could not be transported to Japan in time and had to remain here.
Moreover, Yang Jing could also see that, judging from the classification of the treasures in the four boxes, the person who handled these treasures at that time must have been a Japanese who was extremely proficient in Chinese antique culture, otherwise the treasures in these boxes would not have been classified and organized so meticulously.
Yang Jing estimated that if he were replaced by the Japanese who handled these treasures back then, he would probably organize these treasures in the same way.
However, no matter how the Japanese dealt with these treasures back then, they are all theirs now!
Yang Jing was thinking happily and was about to open the fifth box to see what other good things were inside, but Gege and the others came in smiling, and Yang Jing had to pause what he was doing.
"Are you back?"
"Well, I'm back!" Gege pounced over happily, lay directly on the big bed, kicked off her shoes, and swayed around happily with her legs crossed.
"Looks like they're having a lot of fun."
"It's okay! This city doesn't look that great during the day, but there are a lot of things to do at night, and it's a lot cooler at night, and there are a lot more tourists. With so many people, it's lively, and there are all kinds of delicious snacks in the streets and alleys. Oh my God, my stomach is full from eating so much, and I have to start dieting tomorrow..." When it comes to eating, beautiful women are always happy and painful, and men have no idea what to do about it.
"Hey, Yang Jing, it's a pity that you didn't come with us. The night in this city is really nice. No wonder it is a famous tourist city in the Philippines. How about we stay for another day tomorrow and go out for a walk tomorrow night?"
"Still shopping?" Yang Jing looked at the girl's belly with a smile, "If you continue shopping, I guess you'll have to diet for half a month after you go back."
"Damn Yang Jing, you're always bringing up all sorts of issues..."
Yang Jing smiled and endured two "Pegasus Meteor Pink Fists" from his wife. "My dear, we can't stay any longer tomorrow. We have to go back to San Fernando. I guess Morris and the others are almost ready over there. We should dig out the treasures buried under the Catholic Church as soon as possible."
Hearing Yang Jing's words, Gege nodded and said, "When we dig the tunnel, I will also have to dig two shovels!"
"Okay, okay, don't just dig two shovels, I have no objection even if you dig the entire tunnel through. This will save me a lot of trouble..."
"I dug a tunnel, but the treasure inside won't belong to you!" Gege said excitedly, "It's just a tunnel, technology is so advanced now, we can dig it with machines." As she said that, Gege sat up with great interest, leaned on Yang Jing's back and continued, "Does my classmate Wu Xiaoli from CAFA know about it?"
Yang Jing nodded. This was a good sister that Gege made when she was studying for her doctorate at the Central Academy of Fine Arts. Yang Jing had met her several times and had a good impression of her.
"Xiao Li's family is in the mechanical business. She told me that her company has a small horizontal hole digging machine. It's not big, it's driven by an electric motor, and it makes very little noise. If it's in a pure soil environment, it can dig very quickly and can dig dozens of meters a day. If you agree to let me dig, I'll call China tonight and ask them to airlift a set of equipment over tomorrow. Hehe, how about it?"
Yang Jing was completely speechless.
This daughter-in-law is so smart. Does my mother-in-law know?
The two of them were chatting and laughing, and Gege felt sleepy. She went to the bathroom to take a shower, and then fell asleep on the bed. It seems that shopping is also very exhausting.
Watching his wife fall into a deep sleep, Yang Jing also lay down on the bed, and then continued to sink his consciousness into the space.
There were still three large iron boxes in the space that had not been opened. Yang Jing picked one at random and it was still a big surprise after opening it.
This box still contained porcelain, but it was full of large pieces. Yang Jing found a total of eight large pieces in it.
These eight large vessels have different shapes, but they are all extremely well-preserved Ming Dynasty porcelains.
