"Porcelain, healing people?"

Although Su Chen's words exposed Grandma Jiang's intentions, the combination of these two unrelated terms couldn't convince Lin Xiongye and his daughter.

Especially Lin Xiongye, who was quite knowledgeable in the antique world but had never heard of any porcelain having the power to heal people.

It sounded like a fantasy!

Or was there some hidden meaning?

Lin Xiongye thought of a possibility and asked, "Professor Jiang, when you say healing, do you mean emotional healing?"

Many antique enthusiasts have their favorite items, and some are deeply attached to them. If they can't obtain their desired items, it might lead to sadness, sleepless nights, and even various illnesses.

If that was the case, Lin Xiongye could understand.

However, Grandma Jiang shook her head, sighing, "It's for my grandson. His family recently suffered a fire, and when he was rescued, he suffered severe burns. His life is hanging by a thread. I need the Qingbai porcelain from Jin Dynasty in Jingdezhen to treat the burns."

Gasp!

Hearing about such a young child's plight, Lin Wanshuang couldn't help covering her mouth in shock.

Lin Xiongye sighed and said, "I understand your feelings, and I know there are many effective folk remedies in your traditional Chinese medicine system. But using porcelain to treat burns is beyond belief."

"I have no other choice."

Grandma Jiang said with a worried expression, "The child is only four years old and can't endure such severe burns. Currently, he can only receive treatment in the ICU, and the cure rate is only a pitiful thirty percent. That's why I turned to ancient books and found this ancient prescription. But I'm not sure about its authenticity."

Lin Xiongye sighed, not knowing how to console her.

At this moment, Su Chen suddenly spoke up.

"Are you using porcelain to cure diseases?"

"What!"

As Su Chen's words fell, everyone in the room was shocked.

Grandma Jiang stared at this young man with disbelief, feeling even more curious about him. Not only did he see through her thoughts just now, but now he firmly believed that porcelain could indeed be used for healing. Could it be...

Suddenly energized, Grandma Jiang asked, "Young man, do you also understand traditional Chinese medicine?"

"I don't."

Su Chen shook his head but still looked serious, "But I understand antiques. The ancient prescription you mentioned is from the 'Shengji Lu.' It suggests grinding Jin porcelain from Jingdezhen into powder, adding water to it, mixing it with tung oil, and applying it to the affected area."

This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source.

Grandma Jiang's dim eyes gradually brightened with hope, "You're right. It's from the 'Shengji Lu.' But the problem is, I need Jin porcelain from Jingdezhen in Jin Dynasty. The porcelain Lin girl brought me is of no use."

"I'm sorry, Grandma."

Understanding the situation, Lin Wanshuang felt self-blame, "I'll go to the antique street now and buy back the porcelain from the He family."

However, as she lifted her foot, her slender shoulder was gently held by someone.

Su Chen gently shook his head at her, "No need to go. I've seen those porcelain pieces. They are indeed from Jingdezhen, but the era is wrong. They are from the Song Dynasty."

"But He Tian told me they were porcelain vases from the Jin Dynasty."

"That guy who knows nothing, of course, thinks it's normal."

Su Chen's expression was calm, "Jingdezhen's porcelain in the Jin Dynasty had a single color and rough craftsmanship. There are probably not many surviving pieces. It might be difficult to acquire them temporarily."

"Ah!"

This was like a bolt from the blue, striking Grandma Jiang.

In fact, she had only held a glimmer of hope for the ancient prescription. Even if she couldn't buy Jin Dynasty porcelain, it wouldn't matter much to her. But after Su Chen's affirmation, she suddenly gained confidence in the prescription. Now, failing to acquire it felt like her emotions plummeted into an abyss.

A few words made Grandma Jiang seem to age several years, and the wrinkles on her face deepened.

"Grandma Jiang, don't be too hasty to give up."

Seeing Grandma Jiang's expression, Su Chen changed the subject, "Complete Jin Dynasty porcelain is indeed hard to find. However, it doesn't mean there are no pieces of Jin Dynasty Jingdezhen artifacts in the porcelain fragment market."

Porcelain fragment market?

When these four words landed, both Lin Xiongye and Grandma Jiang lifted their heads simultaneously.

They were too preoccupied with sighs and sorrows, forgetting about the porcelain fragment market!

"That's right!"

Lin Xiongye clapped his hands and laughed, "Professor Jiang, since you're using porcelain for medicine, you don't care if it's intact. Broken porcelain pieces are medicine just like complete vases and bowls!"

"Reasonable. We've all been bound by conventional thinking."

Grandma Jiang nodded heavily, "Mr. Lin, do you have any porcelain fragments here?"

"That's for sure. Please wait a moment."

After saying that, Lin Xiongye went to the inner room. When he came out again, he dragged out a large box filled with various-shaped porcelain pieces.

Lin Xiongye smiled and said, "I'm planning to take on an apprentice. These broken porcelain pieces are bought for my apprentice to practice discerning eyes. It just happens to be useful today."

For beginners, collecting, comparing, and appreciating broken porcelain pieces is the fastest way to improve their skills.

However, Lin Wanshuang was a bit worried and asked, "Dad, I remember these porcelain pieces are not worth much. Can there really be artifacts from the Jin Dynasty inside?"

"I don't know."

Lin Xiongye shrugged, "But luckily, these porcelain pieces are incomplete, and you can clearly see the fetal quality inside. It's difficult to fake, and if we can find Jin Dynasty artifacts, they would undoubtedly be genuine. Let's not waste time. Let's start searching."

After saying that, Lin Xiongye didn't care much and spread a blanket on the ground. He directly overturned the box, and hundreds of porcelain fragments clattered out. The antique porcelain pieces included Song Dynasty Yingqing, Yuan Dynasty blue and white, and Qing Dynasty enamel, among others.

Su Chen and Lin Xiongye, both experts in this field, quickly classified these porcelain fragments. However, when it came to identifying Qingbai porcelain, Lin Xiongye's speed inevitably slowed down. The reason was that the criteria were not only Jin Dynasty but also Jingdezhen-produced works.

Distinguishing dynasties from porcelain pieces might not be difficult, but determining their origin requires stopping and carefully discerning.

For some porcelain pieces with high difficulty in identification, even specialized instruments are needed to analyze their fetal quality and reconstruct their patterns to determine their origin.

"Late, bring the magnifying glass over. I need to take a closer look."

Lin Xiongye rubbed his eyes, stretched out his hand for a while, but received no response.

After a moment of surprise, Lin Xiongye realized that his precious daughter was completely focused on Su Chen alone.

This girl!

Lin Xiongye smiled helplessly, but when he turned his head
