Rockwell's paintings are not all very valuable, at least the three paintings in front of him cannot be compared with his oil paintings that fetched high prices in terms of size and artistry.However, Yang Jing was indeed very surprised.There is no shortage of famous Western paintings in Yang Jing's hands, and he has a lot of paintings by the world's top masters such as Beethoven, Raphael, Cézanne, Ingres, Monet, Rusborn, Rembrandt, etc., but these three paintings really brought surprises to Yang Jing.As mentioned earlier, in 1943, Rockwell's studio caught fire, and as a result, all the manuscripts he had left were burned by this fire, even if a small part of Rockwell's original works were rescued at that time, but the number was extremely cherished.Now there are three of them at once, which is of course a surprise.If these three paintings are placed in 20 years, let alone 700,000, it is estimated that they can be auctioned with two more zeros later.Of course, Yang Jing will not auction these three paintings, and he is not short of money now, and these three paintings can just supplement the collection of the Grand Canal Museum.Seeing the boss's look of satisfaction and surprise, old Mike's task today is completed.His wife, Vivien, was now sure that she was fine, and her health was getting better and better, and a person in his sixties, both physically and energetically, was not at all worse than a person in his thirties.Of course, Old Mike knew that this was Yang Jing's handiwork, so Old Mike was very grateful for it.It's just that this old man is not very good at expressing his feelings, and he can only repay this kindness by constantly doing things for Yang Jing.Although Old Mike is now over sixty years old, his body and energy are still quite good, although he gave Yang Jing a surprise this time, Yang Jing did not plan to let go of this old guy.Who made him look pretty idle?
Didn't say it, add a burden!
So, the day after visiting the two galleries, old Mike almost cried with a sad face.His sister, Lao Tzu just laundered the 300 tons of gold, why did you get so much gold?
This pile needs at least 300 tons!
Looking at Old Mike's sad face, Yang Jing laughed happily."
Mike, there is an idiom in ancient China that best reflects your ability now, that is, when you are old, you are strong, which means that a man like you, the older you are, the more powerful you are.So, you can't be intimidated by the little gold in front of you, you need to keep laundering it!
”"Cole, let's not play like this, okay?
It's going to kill people" "Hehe, you take a look at this batch of gold first, look carefully, and see if you can guess the origin of this batch of gold." ”Hearing this, the old man's curiosity was suddenly aroused.Don't look at his sad face, but he is very happy in his heart.Although it is difficult to launder this gold, with the experience of the last time, these more than 300 tons of gold are nothing to him.The most important thing is that you must be the absolute confidant of the boss to do this kind of thing, and you must not do this kind of work if you catch a random person.Whether it's Henry, David, or Amanda, they all have the ability to launder the gold, but the boss never lets them interfere, and even Cesar is not qualified to do so.At present, only I have the qualifications to do this!
In this regard, Old Mike is very grateful to the boss for his attention.It's just that the boss's words seem to be saying that this batch of gold is greasy?
So just take a look?
Check it out!
So old Mike took out his reading glasses again and put them on, and then grabbed a gold brick with difficulty and observed it carefully.Looking at it, old Mike's face changed.Immediately, he put down the gold brick in his hand, grabbed several gold bricks of different sizes in a row, and carefully observed them."
Cole, could this be the missing gold of the legendary last Tsar?"
After a long time, Old Mike raised his head and asked in extreme shock.Yang Jing nodded, "That's right, this batch of gold is the gold of the last tsar who disappeared back then, but this is only a part." ”"Cole, did you really find that legendary gold?
Sixteen hundred tons?
”Yang Jing shook his head with a smile and said, "I found that batch of gold, but the quantity is not that much, about 1,200 tons. ”"That's not the right amount!
Now there is clear evidence that the shipment of gold from St.
Petersburg was 1,600 tons, but how is it less than 400 tons?
Could it really be that Kolchak took those 400 tons and sank on Lake Baikal?
”Looking at the expression of old Mike's eyes, Yang Jing knew that the enthusiasm for treasure hunting in the heart of this old guy was hooked, so Yang Jing decisively watered it."
I don't know exactly how much gold Kolchak took with him, but I can be sure that I searched the bottom of Lake Baikal and did not find any gold that sank to the bottom of the lake.Therefore, even if Kolchak took away 400 tons of gold that year, it is estimated that it was hidden somewhere.Without a clue, the gold is hard to find. ”Hearing this, Old Mike shook his head regretfully and sighed, and then he jumped up again, "Cole, don't say that in addition to these three hundred tons of gold, you have nine hundred tons of gold waiting to be laundered!"
”"yes, that's what I meant.I thought that if I took out all the 1,200 tons of gold at once, the difficulty of laundering would definitely increase geometrically, so I hid that batch of gold somewhere, and it was washed little by little, and it was not easy to be discovered. ”"Christ Jesus, spare me," said old Mike, with a look of lovelessness."
Take your time, don't rush, I hope you can do it for me until I'm ninety years old!"
Yang Jing laughed and said this, turned around and left here.Yang Jing didn't have to worry about the rest at all, with Old Mike's ability, it would take two years at most for this batch of gold to be laundered.Last time, in order to launder the 300 tons of gold, Yang Jing even asked Niam Wilson to secretly eat a large number of shares of Newmont Mining in the name of Black Rock Group and Pioneer Fund, and now the shares of Newmont Mining controlled by Atlantic Capital are as high as 43, if Yang Jing is willing, he can complete the merger and acquisition of Newmont Mining in a very short time.It's just that Yang Jing didn't do it.Originally, Yang Jing was ready to keep a low profile, and of course he would not expose KY investment funds or even Atlantic Capital on Newmont Mining.With the world's second-largest gold producer as a cover, it was relatively easy for Mike Sr. to launder the gold this time.Walking out of Mike's office, Yang Jing met with Henry Williams and Amanda again, and after telling him some things that should be paid attention to, he went back to modern time and space.This time, Yang Jing stayed in the space-time of 1996 for a total of sixteen days, because the space-time in 1996 was still within the space-time node of thirty years, so according to the time flow rate of 1:8, the current space-time is only two days in the past.After coming out of the bedroom, Yang Jing checked the door and found that the silk thread tied to the door was not broken, so Yang Jing knew that no one had been here in the past two days.When he opened the refrigerator and looked at it, he found that there were not many leftover vegetables and meats in it, so he planned to go out and buy it.The ground outside was still covered in heavy snow, and there was basically no color in the field except for white, except for the cleared road.The Missouri River, which had been flowing until two days ago, had also completely stopped moving, and the surface of the river had been completely frozen over.After putting on the down jacket, Yang Jing opened the door, and the cold wind like a knife rushed in front of him, which immediately made him shiver involuntarily.The air was very cold, and Yang Jing estimated that it would be close to minus 20 degrees at least.This temperature is rare in Montana at the end of October, which also proves the strength of this cold wave.No one has come in the past two days, and Yang Jing has never gone out, so this place is still the same as it was two days ago.A line of snow holes stretched from the outside of the porch to the farm machinery warehouse, which Roy Jones stepped on when he went to the farm machinery warehouse to drive his tractor early the next morning.Yang Jing tried to step on the snow outside, but as soon as he stepped down, the snow directly reached his knees.And after two days of freezing, the snow at this time is far less soft than it was two days ago, and the snow at this time is hard to step on.Yang Jing knew that if the temperature was twice as low as minus 40 degrees, the snow would be completely frozen at that time, and stepping on it would be similar to stepping on a concrete floor.After moving to the garage door with difficulty, Yang Jing realized that he had made a big mistake, that is, he did not sweep the snow out in front of the door when the snow was soft.From the door of the house to the road, there is at least a distance of more than 40 meters.It was easy to clean when it first snowed, but now the snow is in a semi-frozen state, how to clean it?"
Laziness kills people!"
Yang Jing stood in front of the garage where even the gate was frozen with the snow, and he couldn't wait to shout!
This situation is indeed embarrassing, but Yang Jing's mind is turning fast, and it is obviously impossible to sweep the snow with a broom now, but we still have a big killer for clearing snow in the agricultural machinery warehouse.If you don't say it, just do it when you think of it!
He staggered to the agricultural machinery warehouse, opened the door and went in to fiddle for a while, and the roar of a John Deere tractor engine sounded in the warehouse.With this big guy with full horsepower, not to mention such snow, even if the snow is frozen, this big guy can solve it.Sitting in the warm and comfortable cab, he controlled this big guy to work in front of his house for half an hour, and the large snow in front of the door was completely swept aside, and the distance of more than 40 meters from the door of the house to the highway was swept by Roy Jones with a tractor before, but Yang Jing was still unsatisfied, and drove this big guy to sweep again, completely sweeping a road nearly five meters wide.Got into the BMW X5, drove on the heat, and then turned on the radio, and a very familiar melody came from inside.The song "Estvirgia, Ountaaa, Takeho, Untryroads" is Yang Jing's favorite American country music - "Takeho, Untryroads", which translates into Chinese as "Country Roads, Take Me Home".
