Four million Yu Fei smiled bitterly in his heart. If it really cost four million pounds, would it still be called picking up leaks?
Your Highness, you are only half right, Yu Fei said. Because the annoying Albert has left, and facing Mr. Bafaya, Yu Fei has no intention of continuing to pretend. That’s why he calls Alice princess.
Your Highness.
Alice was obviously dissatisfied with this. She glared at Yu Fei angrily, not wanting to say anything else.
Who is Bafaya? In fact, he has already seen that Yu Fei and Alice are not a simple couple. He is so sophisticated that he just did not tell the truth.
I was half right. Alice said strangely, that should be two million pounds. So, you surprised me so much. I'm afraid no one would believe it if I told you. You only spent two million pounds.
I bought sixteen precious paintings. You must know that the price of each painting here is far more than two million pounds.
No, Your Highness Princess, you have misunderstood me. The half of the four million I mentioned is not two million, but the first half of the four million, which is four hundred. Wan Yufei said with some embarrassment:
Don't look at me with such surprised eyes, I am also very surprised, but this is a fact. I bought these paintings from an art stall for twenty pounds a piece, a total of twenty paintings, four hundred pounds. In addition,
The four paintings are still there.
Alice could hardly believe her eyes. There was no difference between twenty pounds for a painting and giving it away for free. Even the most imaginative person would find it difficult to believe it.
In fact, it was because it was incredible that no one would think that there were such precious paintings in that small art stall, and there were sixteen of them.
Mr. Bafaya has now seen Yu Fei's ability to pick up leaks. The Crystal Holy Grail bought for 220,000 pounds was resold to him for 20 million pounds. The sixteen paintings bought for 400 pounds, which increased nearly a hundred times, are worth as much as one
150 million pounds, which is an increase of nearly 400,000 times. Even a well-informed and well-informed collector like Bafaya has never heard of it.
Mr. Yu, you really surprised me. Mr. Bafaya said sincerely.
Yu Fei scratched the back of his head in embarrassment. He looked at the dumbfounded expressions of Bafaya and Princess Alice with embarrassment.
Just then Bernie knocked on the door and came in to ask for today's dinner.
Princess Alice formally invited Mr. Bafaya to stay for dinner, and Bafaya naturally would not refuse.
Since there was still some time to prepare for dinner, Bafaya proposed to visit Princess Alice's private collection. Alice readily agreed.
This is what Yu Fei wants. After chatting with Princess Alice, Yu Fei knows that although Alice is young, she is no longer a rookie in the collection world because of her status. Alice's collection even exceeds that of many people in the collection world.
A collector who has been a collector for most of his life, Yu Fei is thinking that if there are Chinese antiques among them, he could consider exchanging one or more of these sixteen paintings. I believe Alice will not refuse.
Yu Fei could see that Alice, who loved collecting calligraphy and paintings, had a very strong interest in these sixteen paintings. But she did not ask to acquire them. If she did, Yu Fei would not sell them, nor would she not sell them.
I felt sorry for the high price, and suffered a loss when I offered the low price. It would be very difficult. The considerate Princess Alice must have taken this into consideration, so she did not mention the transfer at all, which also made Yu Fei
Saves a lot of embarrassment
The castle is just Alice's vacation spot, and the collection inside is not all of Alice's collection. But its scale also surprised Yu Fei.
Yu Fei was amazed by the large number, variety and high quality of Alice's collection. Yu Fei made a rough comparison. In terms of the size and value of the collection alone, Alice's collection is already comparable to Mitsui Sumitomo's collection.
I really don’t know how she did it. Compared with her, my poor collection is really beyond the reach of her.
But neither Alice nor Bavaya would think so. In fact, they both regard Yu Fei as a collector of the same order of magnitude as themselves. Not to mention anything else, Yu Fei alone has been in the past two days.
The harvest gained in time is something that many people will never be able to catch up with in their lifetime. With this kind of vision and this kind of luck, it is really difficult for everyone to say that it is not a collection.
Of course, although Alice's collection is very extensive, there is still a gap compared with Bafaya's collection. Otherwise, Bafaya would not be called one of the top collectors in Europe.
What makes Yu Fei slightly disappointed is that although Alice's collection is large, more than 80% of it is European art. There are very few art works outside Europe, and even fewer Chinese art pieces. Look.
It turns out that she doesn't seem to be interested in Chinese art. There are only about twenty or thirty pieces in the huge collection room, and most of them are not of high value, which makes Yu Fei slightly disappointed.
The collection was meager, which made the two of them laugh. Alice said humbly.
The collection of Her Royal Highness the Princess is unique, which is an eye-opener for Bafaya. Mr. Bafaya said humbly: If you have the opportunity, Your Highness must go to France to visit my collection.
It's such an honor, Princess Alice said.
Yu, what's the problem? Princess Alice turned around and saw Yu Fei frowning, as if he had something on his mind, so she couldn't help but ask.
Ah Yufei came back to his senses and said with some embarrassment: No, I am very amazed by the collection here. But I don’t know the origin of most of them.
Alice chuckled. It wasn't that she laughed at Yu Fei's lack of knowledge. On the contrary, she liked Yu Fei's frankness very much. Compared with Abbott, Yu Fei was frank and frank, and she felt very comfortable with him.
It seemed that the two of them had known each other for a long time and had a tacit understanding.
"Yu, are you tactfully criticizing that there are too few artworks from your country in my collection?" Alice said with a smile.
No, no, of course not. Yu Fei quickly denied it. In fact, the scarcity of Chinese artworks in Alice's collection made Yu Fei a little disappointed, but it also made him feel a little better. It was the British and French allied forces who burned the Old Summer Palace, so
The British also looted a lot of Chinese art. Most of the antiques circulating in the British market were originally robbed from China. The reason why Yu Fei was so black and white and the Yongle blue and white plum vase was the fuse, but
Basically, Sotheby's publicly auctioned Chinese antiques regardless of the feelings of the Chinese people.
However, although there are not many Chinese works of art here, there is a very precious painting. Alice said slightly proudly.
Oh Yu Fei was stunned. When he entered the collection room, he used the Chaos Qi to roughly detect it, but found nothing. Yu Fei was consciously improving his ability and taste in appreciating art, so he did not want to do everything.
Relying on the energy of chaos. Therefore, Yu Fei did not explore each piece one by one, so he did not find any precious paintings.
Alice smiled brightly and said to Bafaya: Mr. Bafaya, I heard that you are also very knowledgeable about Chinese art. Would you like to review it together?
Bafaya said humbly: I'm ashamed. In terms of appreciation of Chinese art, I'm afraid I'm far inferior to Mr. Yu.
Yu Feineng discovered sixteen precious paintings at Bermondsey Morning Market, and Bafaya admired him very much. Because Bafaya knew that even he could not do this. Just imagine, there are paintings on a stall
There are hundreds of them, put together in such a mess that even if someone is lucky enough to see them, it might be impossible to tell them apart.
Mr. Bafaya, you are making me feel a little embarrassed. Yu Fei is telling the truth. Without the help of Chaos Qi, Yu Fei's identification level is probably equivalent to that of Albert, and even worse than Princess Alice.
It's a long way to go, let alone Bafaya.
Alice, what kind of painting is it that is so precious? The mystery of Alice also made Yu Fei curious and a little expectant. And at the request of Princess Alice, Yu Fei is no longer the same as Bafaya.
Call her Her Royal Highness, and call her by her first name.
Please follow me. Alice walked lightly and led Bafaya and Yu Fei into a small compartment of more than 40 square meters in the collection room.
There are not many collections in the compartment, only about ten pieces, but Yu Fei can see that the value of these collections is much higher than outside.
As soon as he entered, Yu Fei was attracted by a painting facing the door. To be continued...
