Chapter 618 617. Success (610)

When he said this, Li Du's mood suddenly became excited.

But he knew that he had to be steady, and he couldn't behave too abnormally, so he waved his hands and said, "No, how can you be so mean?"

Jim Jin smiled and said, "What's so polite? Why don't you choose a few oil paintings from me, and take whichever you like."

Li Du thought about it for a while, and said, "It might be a little too much for me to do this..."

"You're welcome, you must be polite!" Jim King said kindly, "However, Li, I hope you can help me explain to Mr. Ferrari that you and I are friends, and this incident has nothing to do with me."

Li Du patted his chest and said, "Of course, of course, you have absolutely nothing to do with this matter. I swear the knight will not trouble you in the future."

Jim Kim was overjoyed and asked, "Really?"

Li Du said: "I swear that I will do my best to help you get rid of the knight. As for the oil paintings I chose, how about these two paintings by Van Gogh?"

Jim King boldly took off the oil paintings and handed them to him, saying, "Since you like them, they belong to you."

Holding these two paintings, Li Du was terrified. These are not two frames or two paintings, but tens of millions of dollar bills!

Jim King was very shrewd. Seeing Li Du holding the two paintings so carefully, he felt something was wrong and asked, "You seem to like these two paintings very much?"

Li Du said: "I like oil painting now, and I like all your oil paintings here."

Jim King tentatively asked: "In this case, shall I exchange two paintings for you? Actually, I just bought these two oil paintings and they haven't been cleaned yet. They are not good gifts."

Hearing what he said, Li Du immediately understood that because he paid too much attention to these two paintings, this guy began to doubt.

So he made a decisive decision, put the two paintings back on the table without hesitation, and said, "No, forget it, it seems that I am taking people's love, doesn't it? I'd better return these paintings to you, and I will buy them myself." One set will do."

Seeing him put down the painting so happily, the suspicion in Jim King's heart dissipated a lot, he quickly pushed the oil painting to Li Du, and said: "No, no, Li, you misunderstood me, I just want to give you a copy Nice gift."

He murmured in his heart, he received these two paintings from a grocery store, they could never be the real ones, you can tell by looking at the canvases, there are pits and small grains of sand on them, if the real ones, how could they be so damaged?

Also, the most fake part of this painting is the signature. Van Gogh was Dutch, and his signatures are all in Dutch.

It is true that Dutch and English are very similar in terms of grammar and alphabet usage. But this is now, not in the nineteenth century.

The signatures of Van Gogh on these two paintings are large and clear, as if they were afraid that others would not know that they were signed by someone in English in modern times.

Facing his offer again, Li Du refused to accept it. He shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'd better go buy it myself. There must be many imitations of Van Gogh on the Internet, right?"

Jim King said enthusiastically: "Don't be polite to me, Li, take them away if you like them. If there are still oil paintings you like here, you can continue to choose."

Li Du saw it when he released the little flying insects before, and only these two paintings are valuable, while the others are real imitations or fakes, which are not worth much at all.

However, he still chose two more paintings, still Van Gogh's works, one is "Starry Night" and the other is "Sunflower".

Jim King personally wrapped the four paintings for him and said: "If you want to buy oil paintings in the future, you can contact me. I have a lot of experience in this area."

Li Du smiled and said, "I am very grateful."

Jim King said: "No, no, it's nothing, it's just about Mr. Ferrari..."

He was really worried about this matter, so he emphasized it again.

Li Du said: "Don't worry, Mr. Ferrari won't trouble you again!"

"That's good, that's good." Jim Jin narrowed his smiling eyes.

However, this matter could have been solved with two paintings, but in the end, he spent four paintings and lost two paintings in vain. He couldn't laugh when he thought of this.

These paintings are indeed imitations, they are all fakes, they are not worth much compared to the real ones, but the high-end ones in Jim Jin's collection are still worth a little money, and each one can sell for at least a thousand yuan.

Seeing him come back with two oil paintings, Hans asked in surprise, "What are these? Did you go to the art exhibition?"

Li Du smiled and said, "How is it possible? This is a gift from Boss Jim Jin."

"This old miser can actually give someone a gift? Then he must have asked you for help." A local treasure hunter next to him said with a curled lip.

Hans motioned him to put down the two paintings, and wanted to take him to visit the rest of the warehouse.

How could Li Du be in the mood to continue to visit now? Anyway, he has seen the warehouse, and it is very clear what is inside.

He waved his hand and said, "You can just deal with these things, give me a narwhal tooth, and you can figure out the rest. I'm a little tired, I have to go back."

Li Du wants to go back and tidy up these two paintings. Today's harvest is really great!

Hans was very surprised and said, "Are you a little tired? How do I see that you seem to be very energetic?"

Li Du said, "I'm tired."

Hans: "..."

On the way back, he called Playboy and asked him to help contact the Cavaliers, and anyway, don't bother Jim King.

Playboy said: "After our investigation, this bastard has something to do with the kidnapping case."

Li Du said: "Let's forget about him, anyway, he didn't directly participate, let him go."

Whatever it mattered, Jim King had paid the price, enough.

He asked Godzilla to go out and buy a big box, and put two authentic oil paintings in it.

In fact, the oil painting can be removed from the frame and rolled up for carrying.

But he knew that these two paintings were genuine, and they had been around for more than a hundred years. The canvas probably couldn't stand the toss, so it was more reliable to preserve them in such an original way.

Hans came back and gave him a list of the harvest of the warehouse auction.

In addition to the narwhal teeth, they also had a bigger harvest, which was a box of watch hairsprings.

The hairspring is the core of the operation of the mechanical clock. Before the invention of the hairspring, the mechanical clock relied on the pendulum as an oscillator to achieve energy division and travel time.

In the 17th century, the hairspring invented by Huygens greatly reduced the size of clocks. The appearance of this kind of thing was the basis for the emergence of pocket watches and wristwatches, and it was also the end of the glorious era of pendulum clocks.

This thing is very small and miniature, but it has high technical content and rare materials. The ones Li Du got are especially rare. They come from a Swiss high-end watch supplier company, and they are all valuable!
