Chapter 280 Rare Baby!(1/2)
After having dinner at Cathy, Zhu Yu returned to the study and began to organize his things and information.
He first took out a few oil paintings from the space and looked at the signatures on it.
Monet, I've heard of it.
After checking the information, the famous French painter died before the beginning of World War II.
One of the representatives and founders of Impressionism.
Zhu Yu was not interested in other introductions.
The auction price of his works, from the beginning of this century, has basically not been less than 20 million US dollars, and the highest has reached 80 million US dollars!
Zhu Yu counted and found that in his own space, there were eleven works by Monet!
Picasso’s, seven pictures!
There are still many who don’t know the names at all!
Zhu Yu counted and said that there were more than 190 paintings he brought back.
If it is all this price, then your assets will have to double!
However, he did not plan to sell all these paintings. Think about it and figure out who they belong to first. After that, he would make his own plan.
Of course, this matter cannot be rushed.
Too urgent, it is easy to attract enemies.
What Zhu Yu didn't know was that on the third day after he left Paris, Heine and David's bodies were found in the villa by workers who came to do cleaning.
He bought the villa where Heine lives and was cleaned once a week.
The cleaning worker had the key, but after coming, he didn't hear any movement, so he started cleaning. He smelled the odor. David's body was found in the room downstairs, and then he called the police.
The police found Heine's online and family through the phone records on their phones.
Because the organization behind Heine is very energetic, the police tried their best to break the case through pressure, but there was no clue at all.
In the end, I had no choice but to make a fuss.
The organization behind Heine would not give up like this. They began to do their best to investigate Heine's possible enemies.
Zhu Yu didn't know that the danger was approaching step by step. He put the painting back into the space and began to study other things.
Using his relatively simple identification methods, he determined that most of the jewelry was classical European style before World War II, and a small number of them were royal treasures, but it is not possible to take action yet.
Too sensitive.
Next, Zhu Yu began to sort out the information he received in his mind.
Most of the "experiences" of the cross in the church. As witnesses, the cross perfectly stores the experience information through energy, and now it is feedback to Zhu Yu.
But most of them were invalid information, so Zhu Yu watched it all as if he was watching a movie.
However, there are several of them, such as those records of special abilities, information that a believer donated all his property to the church and was secretly buried by the priest, and a holy object once transported here from the Holy See for believers to pay homage to them, and then disappeared.
Zhu Yu felt that if it was okay, he could go on a trip and explore and search, just as adding some fun to his travels.
The next day, Zhu Yu brought Ran Jie and others to the cargo yard.
Coincidentally, the cargo yard where Jason was in charge of the container was auctioning.
The auction of the container is coming to an end. What surprised Zhu Yu was that there are not many people participating in the auction now, and nearly one-third fewer than before he went to Europe.
Normal, or what is going on?
At present, a container auctioned is clear inside, and seventeen or eighteen magical plaster figures are fixed in the glass frame.
Although the auctioneer praised the plasters to make them look like they were full of splendor, there were only two or three kittens.
There weren't any of the big names Zhu Yu had seen in the past.
When Jason saw Zhu Yu coming, he immediately came over.
But then his knees bent and almost fell down.
Fortunately, Zhu Yu helped him at the critical moment and asked:
"What's going on?"
"Boss, I feel that you have changed suddenly, just like a god..." Jason's words made Ran Jie and others next to him feel numb.
When they met Zhu Yu just now, they also felt that the boss's temperament had changed a lot.
But it hasn't been exaggerated to this point.
However, looking at Jason's expression, it didn't seem to be talking exaggeratedly at all.
Ran Jie and the other two wanted to laugh but were embarrassed, and they were a little embarrassed to laugh.
Because they found that other people who were watching Zhu Yu had a strange expression at the first time.
There are the most things like awe, admiration, and reverence.
Although it quickly adjusted to normal, they still noticed the change in expression at that moment.
Could it be that the boss has any adventure?
"Tell me, what's the situation?" Zhu Yu already knew the reason, and didn't say anything, pointing to the situation of the auction container.
"The situation has not been very good recently." Jason said with some shame. "Although our containers are still auctioned every two or three days, there has been no good things for a week. Treasure hunters have been attracted to other cargo yards."
He turned around and pointed to the last container at auction and said:
"I auctioned seven items today, and the most valuable thing was the machinery worth more than 10,000 US dollars."
Zhu Yu obviously felt something was wrong. He thought for a while and said, "Are there still some bidders who just pulled the things away and didn't let others see them?"
"Yes, this is the case." Jason was not stupid either. He knew some reasons, but this was the bidder's freedom and he could not interfere.
Seeing that the last container in front of him was about to drop the hammer for $220, Zhu Yu suddenly raised his hand:
"Five hundred dollars!"
His voice scared some people.
Anyone who knows him, he curled his lips. Isn’t this arguing for his own container?
Do you have your left hand and your right hand?
Some people don’t know Zhu Yu, thinking that he wants to get a bargain, and smiled mockingly.
Zhu Yu ignored the other people's ideas and was waiting for someone to increase the price.
Sure enough, someone quoted:
"Six hundred dollars!"
When the auctioneer saw the bid price doubled, he immediately became energetic. Even the tone that had never fluctuated had fluctuated a little, and his voice became much louder. The unique bid without pauses:
"Six hundred dollars, six hundred dollars. This gentleman bids for six hundred dollars. Is there anyone who raises the price? Is there any six hundred dollars?..."
"One thousand dollars!" Zhu Yu felt that today was like his lucky day.
His bid attracted everyone's attention again.
Whether he was asking for his family or not, it would have exceeded 1,000 US dollars. Since he dared to shout, some people felt that there must be something in it.
"A thousand dollars, one thousand dollars, is this very elegant gentleman bid for one thousand dollars more than his one thousand dollars..."
The auctioneer was also impressed by Zhu Yu's current image and gave a special description.
"One thousand and two hundred dollars!" A treasure hunter who had no offer suddenly offered a price.
Zhu Yu turned his head and found that this was a person he had never seen before.
He didn't care, so he continued to increase the price:
"One thousand five hundred dollars!"
In this way, occasionally there were bidding, and finally pushed the price to 3,700 US dollars.
Zhu Yu was a little impatient:
"Four thousand dollars!" Anyway, he was in his pocket, but he just wanted to give the auctioneer some commission, so he didn't want to break the rules.
"Four thousand dollars and four thousand dollars..." The auctioneer's voice rose again. The container that originally thought would be sold for only a few hundred dollars actually sold was sold for 4,000 dollars, and his commission was quite large!
The others eventually gave up.
"You're so bad!" The stranger didn't know that Zhu Yu was the owner of the cargo yard and said unwillingly.
The others dispersed. People who knew that Zhu Yu was the owner of the yard were speculating on the reason for Zhu Yu. Zhu Yu ignored their thoughts and asked Jason to bring people into the container:
"Drag this image out for me!"
He pointed to a plaster figure that looked like a samurai.
Jason immediately took Xiao Hei to move out the plaster statue.
"You're losing a lot!" someone suddenly said from the side.
Zhu Yu turned his head and found that he was a black man he had never seen before. He was shorter than Jason, but he looked smarter.
