    Among Canadian cities, Ottawa has the most typical British style.

    When Qin Shiou was driving along the Rideau Canal, a Royal Mounted Police officer wearing a red tunic and a black barrel cap stopped him and told him that there was a pedestrian street ahead and that sports cars and off-road vehicles were not allowed to enter.

    Qin Shiou turned the car around and found a fast food restaurant to eat while waiting for Little Blake.

    Qin Shiou ordered two portions of pork belly rice, one large and one small, as well as some snacks such as grilled scallops and cheese pancakes. When the handsome waiter came to deliver the food, he asked with a smile: "Are you here for fun?"

    "Yes." Qin Shiou nodded.

    The waiter immediately started selling the restaurant¡¯s drinks: ¡°Then you must try our baby-duck wine. It tastes great. If you come to Ottawa and don¡¯t taste baby-duck, that¡¯s like¡ªa very presumptuous question.  Wait, what is your country?"

    "China."

    "Okay, that would be like arriving in China but not climbing the Great Wall. It's such a pity."

    Qin Shiou laughed after listening to the waiter's words. He spread his hands and said, "Man, I really want to taste this glass of wine, but you know, I drove here and can't drink."

    The waiter smiled and said: "I will not instigate you to commit a crime, but in fact, sir, you are overly worried. Baby-duck is a pre-dinner drink. Drink one drink before driving. Even if the RCMP finds you, you will not say anything, because  They like 'black-and-tackle'."

    Hearing his words, Powell laughed, but Qin Shiou didn't understand what was funny in it.

    Powell had been wandering in Ontario and knew a lot about these things, so he explained to him: "'Baby-duck' used to be the name of a kind of sticky sparkling wine. Ontarians liked to drink it very much and thought it was a kind of wine."  Good wine. Later, a famous sommelier said: If the police drink a glass of baby-duck, they will be completely sober after walking down the street, sober enough to catch the bad guys."

    ¡°Yes, baby-duck is ¡®black-and-tackle¡¯. After you drink it, you become a policeman.¡± The waiter added with a smile.

    Qin Shiou thought about it, and Little Blake came over immediately. It didn¡¯t matter if he didn¡¯t drive, so he said: "Okay, man, I have been convinced by you. Please give me a cup of 'baby-duck'."

    Ontario wine is very famous throughout Canada. Except here, wine from other places is treated as a joke by the international wine industry.

    Qin Shiou ordered Riesling white wine, which was expensive. Just one glass was worth the meal he and Powell had.

    But the high price means high-quality service. The glass of Riesling white wine he ordered has a fragrant and slightly sour taste. It has a fresh, soft and warm taste. The wine taste is not strong at all. No wonder the waiter said this is the best pre-dinner wine.

    While Qin Shiou was tasting, little Blake arrived. After sitting down, he sniffed the half-drunk glass of white wine and said with a smile: "You really know how to enjoy it. You must have checked this restaurant before coming here, right?"  ? Its baby-duck is quite famous in Ottawa, give me some too."

    "No, I can't drive after drinking. You have to drive later." Qin Shiou said quickly. Canada's traffic laws are very strict. If you are caught drinking and driving, you will not be deducted points, but you will not be able to drive again within a year.  to the car.

    Little Blake waved his hand indifferently and said: "Is baby-duck considered alcohol? No, it is soda. I can still drive to Graybell to get a prize even if I drink one bottle."

    After drinking, Qin Shiou left a tip of twenty yuan and left with Little Blake. The latter had already arranged a hotel for him to stay in, a five-star hotel called 'B&B'.

    This hotel is a luxurious modern Victorian building. There are six top-level rooms, decorated in the styles of six different countries, including Florentine style, Indian style, etc. Of course, Qin Shiou lives in an ancient Chinese style room.

    People who are familiar with Qin Shiou know that he likes to have fun, and they are very particular about arranging food and accommodation for him.

    "I originally wanted to take you to the inn, which is one of the oldest inns in Ottawa. It was established in the 18th century. It has cantilevered ceilings and wooden floors and is very comfortable. But after choosing, I think this ancient Chinese style room might be the best choice.  It¡¯s more to your liking,¡± Little Black explained.

    Qin Shiou asked how much the price was, and Little Black smiled and said, "I just made ten million with you. Now that you've arrived in Ottawa, how can I let you spend money?"

    After resting in the hotel, Qin Shiou and Powell went to the mall in the evening, bought some snacks and came back to watch TV. The next day, Little Black found someone to pick them up and headed to the filming.The meeting site.

    Qin Shiou was not interested in those porcelains, calligraphy and paintings, statues, decorations, etc. He just wanted to look at his red coral beads.

    The Chaozhu was placed in the center on the left side of the exhibition hall, which shows that the value of this auction item should not be low.

    But Qin Shiou was not sure, because in the middle of the exhibition hall, which belonged to the most expensive art booth, there was a very bad oil painting. It was just daubed with yellow, orange, and red dye on an oil cloth. In his opinion, this thing was just  It's worth two yuan. You can take it back and wash it and use it as a rag.

    So, since the most expensive works of art are like this, the value of the beads placed next to them should be lower, right?

    Of course, now Qin Shiou is someone who has seen big events and knows that art cannot be judged by its appearance, so he will not foolishly characterize the oil painting before the price is revealed.

    As the nominal owner of Chaozhu, Billy also came to the auction, but he arrived on the same day and didn't know what happened at home.

    After arriving at the scene, he found Qin Shiou, pointed at Chaozhu and whispered triumphantly: "Look, I didn't do a bad job, didn't I?"

    It¡¯s really not bad. Qin Shiou just saw it. The beads have been polished and are no longer dull. There is a layer of patina on the surface. It suddenly feels like this thing has been played with for a long time.

    In addition, there was a poem written on the big bead in the center of the Chaozhu. Qin Shiou studied it for a while but didn't understand it, so he picked up the introduction page next to it and read it.

    This sight shocked him greatly. According to the introduction page, this court bead was worn by the commander of the fifth patrol battalion of the Nine Gate Infantry Army of the Qing Dynasty during the Xianfeng period 150 years ago. Its value is immeasurable.

    The commander of the fifth patrol battalion of the Nine Gate Infantry Army was an important official position in the Qing Dynasty. Now he is Mao Weilong¡¯s boss, the director of the Kyoto Public Security Bureau. He is a member of the first rank, and the beads he wears are red coral beads.

    The first-rank official who was exploited by Billy was named Jiang Linzhao. He was a fellow from Lu Province. He started his career with military exploits and was one of the main generals who fought against the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

    The poem on the beads is called "The light cover is like a galloping horse, and the Yu Heng is hard at flying wings." Yu Heng is the name of Admiral Chiang. He took this poem and asked a famous sculptor at the time to give it to him.  Carved on the beads.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
