Hearing someone talking behind him, Li Yi and Aitan Misa turned around at the same time.

"Uncle Ota, are you back?"

"Yes, Miss Aitian, are you satisfied with that green hairpin?"

"Of course I am satisfied! Not only am I satisfied, but Mr. Li Yi is also satisfied. It's a pity that you don't have more here."

"Oh? Is this Mr. Li Yi? I just heard from him that he was willing to take out a hand scroll of Lingchuan Shixuan to exchange for some jade jewelry. I wonder if it is true."

Aita Misa didn't know how Li Yi had the hand scroll of Shizuo Rikawa. You know, there were not many of those things in Japan, so she could only shrug her shoulders and look at Li Yi.

"Yes, Mr. Ota, I do have a hand scroll from Hirakawa Shin-kuo here, and I am willing to exchange it for some real Chinese treasures."

Ota hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Li Yi, can I look at your hand scroll first, you know."

Aita Misa glanced at Ota again. She was about to say that Li Yi had just come from China and could not carry Lingchuan Shixuan's hand scroll with her when she saw Li Yi smiled slightly and took out a box from the backpack that Gu Feng was carrying.

"Isn't this the hand roll I bought at Kant's store? Oh, Buy!"

Ai Tian suddenly covered her mouth. Oh my God, is it really fake? The price of this hand-rolled painting was what she told Li Yi. She remembered it very clearly, 12 million, and in the end, it was regarded as the top of the Tang painting!

If this hand scroll is really a work by Shin-Hyuki Hirakawa, then what a big leak it would be!

But then, she began to doubt again. The hand-rolled hand had been with Mr. Kant for a long time, but why didn't Japanese people recognize him? Li Yi just took a look and recognized him? Could he be wrong?

Yes, you must have made a mistake! Don’t we know our own things, and we still want you, a foreigner, to find a bargain?

"This painting"

Although Ota did not know the origin of Li Yi's hand-rolled painting, he quickly shook his head as soon as he saw the work. Although this painting is indeed a bit similar to that of Shin-Hyuki, its level is really not satisfactory. If Shin-Hyuki's works are at the level of a professor, then this painting is at most a college student, and even graduate students have not arrived yet!

However, it was hard to say too much about this kind of thing, so he just shook his head and returned the painting to Li Yi.

Li Yi smiled and didn't say much. If this painting was so easy to identify, how could it be his turn to take action? He had checked it online later. When he created this hand-roll, Lingchuan Shixuan's style was already quite mature. If it were at his level at that time, the quality of the collection of this painting was indeed a little out of standard.

However, information shows that Lingchuan Shixuan also made some new style explorations in the later period, which means that this painting is probably an attempt he made. This can explain why this painting was not included in some picture records, because it is very likely that Lingchuan Shixuan was not very satisfied, so he had never taken it out at all.

However, even if he is not satisfied, it is a work by Shi Xuan of Lingchuan. It is precisely because he suspects that this hand scroll is experimental in nature that Li Yi will directly take it out for exchange. Otherwise, he will definitely take it back to the country and slowly seek to maximize his interests!

"Mr. Ota, you must have some collection of green jewelry? I wonder if I have the honor to appreciate it?" Although Ota is not optimistic about this painting, his actions just now revealed at least one thing, that is, he definitely still green jewelry in his hand, and there are quite a lot of them!

"Haha, since Mr. Li Yi is interested, let's take a look. Ai Tian, ​​it's not that I didn't deliberately give it to you. The most important one is a whole set, and I dare not dismantle the order and sell it."

"A whole set? Mr. Ota, what do you mean" Li Yi was a little excited. You know, according to the classification of jewelry, the whole set includes headwear, necklace decoration, arm decoration, wrist decoration, waist decoration and even foot decoration! Oh my God, a whole set of lost jade jewelry is also very likely to be court supplies. I won't talk about the specific value, so the collection value is great!

"Cough cough." Seeing Li Yi's eyes shining, Ota coughed twice awkwardly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Li Yi, it's because I didn't explain it clearly. The set I said is a complete set of nodding faces."

"Is it just nodding? That's rare."

Li Yi studied this major himself and had a lot of knowledge about these things. After getting the Spirit Card, he also studied them carefully, so he knew what the head and face were.

In ancient times, there were generally two types of women who could have nodded faces. One was a noble woman, just like the emperor's concubine and the women of wealthy families. The other was the top brands of brothels such as singers. In the later period, some opera masters were added. For example, Du Liniang and Mei Lanfang, they had all had complete sets of nodded faces.

A set of dotted heads and faces is very complicated, including bubbles, hairpins, tandem connections (three-couple, four-couple), large top flowers, side bats, face flowers, pressed temples, vertical beams, cross beams, back pockets, sunlight, earrings, shark fins and other single pieces, and there are about 50 pieces!

In a sense, the number of one set of heads is even more terrifying than the one Li Yi thought just now! However, the one set of the whole set that Li Yi just said is really difficult to collect, and the difficulty of heads is much smaller, because the inheritance of Peking Opera is now hidden in China.

"Please, Mr. Li Yi, please come here."

After Ota finished speaking, he invited everyone to the office, then carefully took out a wooden box from the safe and pushed it in front of Li Yi.

When I opened the wooden box, I first saw a few photos of the models. When Li Yi looked at it, he was indeed the kind of head and face I saw when I was watching Peking Opera.

He shook his head slightly. Even if the head is a verdant, its value will not be too high, generally not exceeding 1 million. If it were worn by those masters, the price would be hard to say. Mei Lanfang's folding fan once sold at a high price of more than 700,000 yuan!

However, is it something that the master has worn before? It cannot be tested by the spirit card, so it can only be passed on through inheritance, but this aspect is his weakness.

Putting down the photo on his face, Li Yi picked up the second photo. These photos are all the effects of wearing models from different angles.

“Huh?”

This photo is a frontal photo. From this photo, he saw something different from the heads and faces in the hands of famous Peking Opera artists. He quickly finished reading the remaining few photos and understood in his heart that he should have been misled by the first side photo just now. This should not be the head and faces in Peking Opera, but a truly ancient set of head and faces for the court!

After seeing the photos, the next thing is to look at the real thing. The reason why I have to put photos of the model here is mainly because it is too scattered, with more than 50 pieces. Not to mention ordinary people, most of them are not sure to recognize them when they are broken into single pieces!

"Bianfeng, side phoenix, face flower, and hair pressing. Mr. Ota, your hair is a real boutique set!"

"Thank you, this set of hair is indeed a fine set. I'm sorry, Mr. Li Yi, this set of hair was transported back to China from Manchukuo back then. It is said to be a treasure owned by Emperor Yongzheng's concubines."

"Oh? Yongzheng's concubine?" Li Yi raised his eyebrows and directly turned on the soul-tapping card.

Indeed, the big top flower in his hand was indeed a product of the Yongzheng period, but it is hard to say that the owner of it is because there is no prompt for the soul-scoring card.

However, the absence of a prompt does not mean that it is not owned by the concubines in the harem, because generally speaking, in addition to reminding the maker and user of the spirit card, only the emperor, queen or the queen of the seal will prompt, and sometimes those queens who are not famous will not prompt.

"But, if it is really owned by the concubine, there may be some information to check, and there may be some special marks on a certain piece of jewelry. The reason why Ota is sure that this mark is owned by the concubine is probably because he found this mark."

Li Yi thought about it and asked, "Mr. Ota, do you know which concubine owns it?"

"Well, according to the person who handed over this face, this should be owned by the concubine Nian of Dunsu, the sister of Nian Gengyao, who once served as the first-class Duke and General Fuyuan."

"Oh? Are there any marks on the jewelry?"

Ota shook his head. The hair was left at his house for decades, and I don’t know how many times I played with it, and I never noticed any marks.

Li Yi nodded, saying that there is no evidence of death. However, this has not had a great impact on the head and face, because most of the styles are court objects, and it can be confirmed that they were from the Yongzheng period. Then, even if Nian clan would be other concubines, if it had to be said that it had an impact, it would be nothing more than Nian Gengyao's existence, Nian clan would be more famous.

"Mr. Ota, I don't know what you are doing." Although it was difficult, Li Yi still asked.

"No, Mr. Li Yi, this set of hair is now the heirloom of our Ota family. We will not consider selling it easily."

"It's okay, it's okay, I just ask. If Mr. Ota really intends to take action, I'd be willing to give a good price." Li Yi smiled on his face, but cursed in his heart, nnd, it's obviously our Chinese thing, but it has become a family heirloom for you, a little Japanese!

Aren't you not selling it? Well, I don't believe that at the next trade fair or exchange meeting, I can't meet an appraiser who can recognize the hand-rolled scroll. When the authenticity of the hand-rolled scroll is confirmed, there are ways to let you spit out the hair! (To be continued.)
