Happy Tycoon

Chapter 18: PICASSO ……

The first thing I did when I returned to London was naturally to deal with the three drawings of Mr. Picasso. And compared to Yang Jing, Guo Xiaoxiang seems to be more active.

In his words, my buddies have never been exposed to such high-value paintings since they were young, let alone deal with these three paintings by hand this time. This is simply a great joy in life, maybe the next half of my life. Just point to this and brag about it!

Of course, Yang Jing also wants to sell these three sketches as soon as possible. His pockets are empty and panicked!

But when Yang Jing was discussing with Fatty how to deal with these three paintings, he didn’t know why, suddenly an idea came up in his mind, asking Fatty to wait two days before releasing the news.

Picasso’s paintings are definitely the most sought-after items on the art market. Don’t look at Picasso’s tens of thousands of works left in his life, but as long as there are Picasso’s paintings to be sold on the market, it will definitely attract countless big shots.

Picasso’s paintings don’t have to worry about selling, so to ensure that these three paintings must not go wrong before and during the sale process is what the two people must do at present.

“Fatty, tomorrow you go to the HSBC Bank across the street to rent a safe. These three paintings can’t be stored here. Before you sell, these three paintings are still safest in the bank safe.”

The fat man nodded and said, “Your proposal is very good. I’ll go there to rent a safe tomorrow morning. I will put the money in first, and you will have to reimburse me later.”

Yang Jing smiled and nodded and said, “Don’t worry about this. Once the paintings are sold, we will have everything. Well, tomorrow is Sunday, I have to go to the Greenwich Handicraft Market. go.”

“Damn, when is it, do you still want to go out to the market?” The fat man was a little dissatisfied.

Yang Jing shook his head and said, “Fatty, my instinct tells me that I have to go shopping in the market, and I have to buy something. Don’t ask me why I have this idea. I don’t know this. Why, but I think I have to go. I will leave the painting to you. After I come back, you will announce the news that we have paintings in hand.”

Hearing Yang Jing say this, the fat man stopped saying anything.

Early the next morning, Yang Jing drove the carnival he had just bought and drove east along the M4 highway.

The school where Yang Jing and Fatty studied is in Egham, in the western suburbs of London, which is the famous Royal Holloway College. Although this university is very famous, it is far from downtown London. Among other things, the Greenwich handicraft market Yang Jing wants to visit today is 30 miles away from the rental house where they live.

Yang Jing drove more than an hour before arriving in Greenwich.

Greenwich is a district of Greater London, developed from an observatory.

In the middle of the seventeenth century, the British navigation industry flourished. In order to better solve the requirement of determining longitude at sea, the King Charles II of England at that time, the king who named the Vardy family as barons, ordered the East London An observatory was built in the Royal Greenwich Garden on the River Thames about 20 kilometers away from the city center in the southern suburbs. This was the famous Greenwich Observatory later.

The lonely observatory at the time has now developed into a district in the Greater London area. Although the famous Greenwich Observatory has been relocated to Sussex County after World War II, there are still many famous scenic spots here that attract a large number of Of tourists come for sightseeing.

For example, the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich Park, Royal Maritime Academy on the HN shore of Thames, and of course the famous Millennium Dome.

In addition to these famous attractions in Greenwich, there is another place that is particularly attractive, and that is the Greenwich Handicraft Market. Compared to the famous attractions, this market attracts more people from London.

Yang Jing, as an “old London” who has been in London for two years, especially the old London where the major flea markets in Greater London are clean, he naturally knows the operation of every flea market in London.

Although the Greenwich Handicraft Market does not have a famous flea market, it shoulders the function of a flea market. Especially when it is not on the weekend, this handicraft market will spontaneously form a Wenwan antique market, attracting a large number of treasure hunters. Come.

When Yang Jing came to this market, it was almost ten in the morning.

found a free parking space outside the market and parked the car, Yang Jing wandered into this huge market with a backpack on his back.

After four consecutive days of rainy weather last week, the weather in London has been very good these days. The sun is shining and the air is fresh, which also makes many locals in London take advantage of this good weather to go out to stroll around the streets.

After entering the market, Yang Jing discovered that the people in the market were already standing next to each other. Various bargaining voices gathered together to form a sound that didn’t sound loud, but in fact it was extremely loud. It reverberates in the market, so you can hardly hear other sounds.

Yang Jing sees this situation a lot. Before coming to the UK, Yang Jing went to university in Jinling. When he had nothing to visit the Chaotian Palace antique market, the noise there was so loud. Compared with Chaotian Palace Antique Market, it’s sprinkling water…

Actually, Yang Jing didn’t know what he wanted to buy when he came here, but his instinct told him that he should come out and buy something today.

This kind of intuition is amazing, and Yang Jing has always trusted his intuition. For example, the last time I bought the ring at the Meigang Road Flea Market, my intuition was actually guiding him.

After a long walk in the market, Yang Jing has been constantly trying to see if he can absorb the treasures of the antique literature and play to increase the energy of the ring. UU Reading www. uukanshu. com But it is a pity that there are obviously many treasures who open the door to get started, and the left hand also feels the vigorous energy contained in those antiques, but it just can’t absorb it.

This situation is like the situation encountered in Cardiff Castle that day.

When such a situation occurs, Yang Jing has to consider it.

“It seems that in order to absorb the treasures of Wenwan Antiques, there should be another condition that has not been met, otherwise the treasures should have been absorbed by the ring. But what are the conditions?”

Depressed Yang Jing pondered for nearly two hours, until he walked to a shop selling paintings and was attracted by the words that hung up, and then decisively gave up thinking about this intractable mystery that had plagued him for many days.

There are many businesses in the Greenwich Handicraft Market that specialize in modern handicrafts business, just like this shop that specializes in selling paintings, which specializes in selling modern paintings. Of course, these paintings are basically modern prints. Customers can buy some pretty good-looking paintings for very little money and hang them in their homes or study rooms to add some style.

Yang Jing’s attention was attracted by the sketches hanging outside the shop. These sketches were not printed, but most of them were drawn by students in the nearby art college. These students will hand over their paintings to these merchants for consignment and earn some extra money to subsidize their living.

The sketches that attracted Yang Jing are the paintings on consignment. Most of these paintings are drawn on 16-carat white paper, and they are all furniture sketches. The most important thing is that the guys who painted these paintings are not ashamed. Signed below the picture—PICASSO…
