Zhu Changan strolled slowly and first came to the fish tank in the back hall to check what was going on inside. He saw that Chang'an Town had entered night at this moment.
The inner city is quiet and peaceful, while the outer city is brightly lit and lively.
The four restaurants and Yihongyuan are all decorated with lights and colorful decorations. An endless stream of people are drinking happily in the restaurants, or going to Yihongyuan to have sex with prostitutes, with endless laughter and laughter.
Without seeing Zhu Renxia, Zhu Changan turned around and went to his bedroom, picked up acupuncture and started pricking himself.
Zhu Changan conducted an experiment yesterday. Using acupuncture to prick several acupuncture points on his armpits, navel, and crotch was able to effectively relieve physical fatigue and reduce the pressure on the ribs caused by physical activities.
This is the "nourishing bones with pulses" therapy mentioned by Li Shizhen in "Eight Meridians Secret Book". If the circulation of blood vessels is strengthened, the bone marrow will be replenished to the greatest extent and the recovery speed will be accelerated.
It took Cheng Yinuo six hours to identify all thirty-seven pictures, and he was even a little dazzled.
"Mr. Zhu, it's easy for me to earn some salary from you. I'm almost dazzled."
Cheng Yinuo stood beside the bed, gently rubbing his temples with his hands to relieve the fatigue of his eyes.
"Dear princess, I think you should check your brain."
After Zhu Changan underwent acupuncture treatment on his own, he felt relaxed all over. His arms no longer hurt, his waist was no longer sore, and he was no longer out of breath. It was probably not difficult to go up to the sixth floor in one breath.
"Why should I look at my brain? What's wrong with my brain?" Cheng Yinuo was puzzled, "Did I make a mistake in your diagnosis?"
Zhu Changan spread his hands: "I know nothing about calligraphy and painting. How can I tell the authenticity? But I can see that your brain is definitely flooded. Who asked you to appraise all the paintings at once? You can't Save some to look at tomorrow.”
Cheng Yinuo continued to relax his eyes: "If I could watch it tomorrow, why would I rush to finish it? I think you are just out of your mind! I will go back to the capital after dinner."
"Okay... I'm just being smart!" Zhu Changan scratched his head, "What, is there anything going on when you go back?"
Cheng Yinuo said: "I have been in Lanling for seventeen days. Brother, if I don't go back, my parents are going to send someone to arrest me."
"Hmm...it does seem a bit long."
Zhu Changan lit a cigarette and said, "How about staying one more night and going back tomorrow morning?"
Cheng Yinuo refused: "No, anyway, there is no difference between flying during the day and at night."
"Since the princess insists on leaving, I can only wish you a safe journey."
Zhu Changan understood Cheng Yinuo's straightforward and decisive character, so he did not retain him.
Anyway, she didn't sleep with him, and she was surrounded by bodyguards, and she had luxury cars and planes when she went out. It didn't make any difference if she stayed one more night or one less.
Cheng Yinuo said: "I ordered a banquet from Kasril and it will be delivered shortly. We will leave after the meal."
"Okay, princess." Zhu Changan nodded knowingly.
Cheng Yinuo said: "I will leave four bodyguards for you."
"Male or female?" Zhu Changan asked with bared teeth.
Cheng Yinuo glared at Zhu Changan: "Including Bai Qian, I have a total of five female bodyguards. If you still want female bodyguards, you will be so beautiful as to go to heaven."
"It's inconvenient to have Xiaorou at home!" Zhu Changan gently blew the ash from his fingertips to defend his request.
Cheng Yinuo said calmly: "Don't worry, they won't show up at your home. I have given them the key to Villa No. 99. These four bodyguards usually live there and take turns protecting you in the dark 24 hours a day. .”
"Oh... thank you so much, my princess." Zhu Changan expressed his sincere thanks, "You are really a careful princess."
Cheng Yinuo snorted: "I picked six paintings from your thirty-seven paintings. Except for "Boneless Peony" worth 40 million, the other five paintings have a total price of 45 million. I I want to bring it back to the capital."
"OK."
Zhu Changan has no interest in ancient paintings. He just likes to convert these paintings into money, "Just treat it as my consort paying your salary."
Cheng Yinuo rubbed his cheek: "You still owe me fifteen million."
After a pause, he added: "By the way, I wrote a handwritten appraisal report and put it on the table in the study. You can take a look if you have nothing to do."
"What are you going to do?"
Seeing Cheng Yinuo take steps forward, Zhu Changan couldn't help but ask.
Cheng Yinuo rolled his eyes at her: "Of course I go upstairs to take a shower and look through these ancient paintings, which makes me smell bad."
After Cheng Yinuo went upstairs, Zhu Changan entered the study, picked up the appraisal report on the table, and looked at it carefully.
According to Cheng Yinuo's appraisal, the total value of the thirty-seven paintings is 470 million, the most expensive of which is "Ode to the Goddess of Luo" by the great painter Gu Kaizhi of the Jin Dynasty, with a market estimate of 320 million.
Among the other thirty-six paintings, the most valuable is Xu Chongsi's "Boneless Peony", estimated at 40 million.
The other two paintings from the Tang Dynasty are estimated to be around 15 million, and most of the remaining works are around 5 million, and some are less than 1 million.
All in all, the thirty-seven pictures add up to an estimated 470 million.
"Fortunately, Cheng Yinuo did not ask for "Luo Shen Fu", but chose "Peony Picture", hehe, otherwise it would be really a headache."
Zhu Changan smiled and took out his mobile phone, took a photo of the appraisal report and stored it in his mobile phone.
In the evening, Kasriel's service truck arrived at his door and delivered a table full of dazzling feasts.
Zhu Changan, Cheng Yinuo, and Fang Rou sat around the dining table to eat together.
Although Bai Qian and the other two female bodyguards accompanied Cheng Yinuo day and night, they kept their identities in mind as bodyguards and did not have dinner together.
Of course, if it weren't for the worry of leaking the secrets in the box, Cheng Yinuo wouldn't mind having three more people at the table. Anyway, he, Zhu Changan, and Fang Rou couldn't finish all the delicacies.
"Princess, how about you take all the paintings back to the capital and sell them to me."
While eating the wagyu, Zhu Changan made his request, "It's useless for me to stay anyway, so you might as well give them to me in exchange for money."
Cheng Yinuo was eating crab meat with a big mouthful: "Didn't you establish your own antique company? If I guess correctly, your company is still just an empty shell, right? You can just take these paintings and press them on the bottom of the box. .”
Zhu Changan took a sip of the red wine in front of him: "To be honest, Li Xiaobai used to be a food delivery guy, and Yan Hao was a post-processor in the film and television company. They just did some errands and odd jobs. These three to four billion If you give them things to sell, that's not a secret investment!"
"Well... buying and selling antiques is indeed a very professional thing."
Cheng Yinuo pondered for a moment and put forward his own suggestion: "We have a professional manager from your Xihai Province under Chengshi Wenwan, and his business level is very high. When I go back, I will ask her if she is willing to work under your company?"
"Female or male?"
"Female." Cheng Yinuo frowned, "It can't be a woman, so you have to take advantage of her, right?"
"Having said that, I just have some doubts about the professional level of female managers."
"Don't worry, her name is Cheng Mei. Her level is definitely not bad, but her salary is a bit high."
"How much is the monthly salary?"
"The monthly salary is one million. She has been working for Cheng's Antiques for four years. She has a car and a house in the capital, and she is very satisfied with her current life. If you want to recruit her, you will probably need to pay double the salary."
Cheng Yinuo threw away the crab shell in his hand, picked up a napkin and wiped the oil stains on his hands, "But I can guarantee that she is definitely worth the money. If you give her a salary of 20 million, she can make the same batch I’ll sell you the goods for 100 million more.”
"So awesome? Let's give it a try!" Zhu Changan raised his glass to toast Cheng Yinuo, "Thank you princess for enduring the pain."
Cheng Yinuo clinked their wine glasses with Zhu Changan and said with a reluctant look: "Cheng Mei is the core member of our Chengshi Wenwan Group, ranking fifth or sixth. I have spent a lot of money to support you."
"Princess supports me so much. I will definitely help you find the word 'Nirvana' as soon as possible, get the antidote, and let Miss Qianjin wake up as soon as possible." Zhu Changan raised his head and drank the red wine in the cup.
Cheng Yinuo added: "Zhu Renxia has now found the trick to collecting antiques, and with the blessing of fifteen thousand kilograms of gold, I estimate that I will collect a large number of antiques for you soon.
I think you need to build a vault at home. If you have this plan, I will introduce you to our Chengjia vault company to discuss it with you. "
"Well, I think it's necessary."
Zhu Changan felt restless when he thought of the calligraphy and paintings worth more than 300 million piled up in his study room, and wished he could stuff these ancient paintings under his bed.
But if a thief is interested, even if it is placed under the bed, it is still unsafe, so it is best to build a safe. It's only tens of millions, just sell a few more paintings.
"How long will it take to complete the construction?" Zhu Changan asked while eating caviar.
Cheng Yinuo pondered for a moment and said, "I estimate that it should be about twenty days."
"I'm starting work at home, so there won't be any trouble from the property management, right?"
"I will say hello to the developer of this villa in advance. The properties are all companies owned by our Cheng family."
Zhu Changan made an "ok" gesture: "In that case, let's get started!"
