Chapter 55: Incarnate Napoleon the Great


On the first day of his arrival in Paris, he received a priceless watch, which made Yang Jing full of anticipation for the next journey.

Counting the 470,000 pounds spent last time on buying the inner painting pot and Yudian inkstone at the Alfie antique market in London, plus the 9.23 million euros spent on buying a watch and the antique clock today, and deducting the 4,800 euros for train tickets and accommodation at the Four Seasons Hotel George V in Paris, Yang Jing's card still has more than 130,000 pounds.

This money is absolutely fine for Yang Jing's next trip.

In fact, if it weren't for the two watches I bought for my father and mother, I wouldn't have spent so much money today.

I slept beautifully in the hotel, and I definitely slept until I woke up naturally, and then Yang Jing went downstairs to check out and eat something, then found a bank, spent some money to rent a safe in that bank, and deposited the two newly bought Audemars Piguet millennial watches and the Patek Philippe Platinum World Time watch in the safe.

As in China, the cost of leasing a safe in a foreign bank is not much, just like the safe that Yang Jing rented, which is about the size of a microwave oven, only costs about 200 euros a year.

The next journey is still long, Yang Jing doesn't want to have any problems with the Patek Philippe platinum worldtime watch he just bought, and the safe in the bank is the safest.

After coming out of the bank, Yang Jing didn't plan to go to the flea market in Paris anymore, and yesterday's harvest made him feel satisfied enough.

Contentment and happiness are a concept that his grandfather instilled in Yang Jing since he was a child.

So Yang Jing immediately turned into an ordinary tourist, and walked all the way north along the Avenue George V, walking for about ten minutes, and arrived at the famous Champs-Élysées.

One of the three most famous avenues in the world, the 1,880-metre-long avenue divides Paris into north and south by the Place de la Concorde to the east and the Arc de Triomphe to the west.

This is the most beautiful street in France and even in Europe, and it is also the most luxurious street, where almost all the luxury brands in the world are gathered, Louis Vuitton, Dior, Cartier, Givenchy as long as you can imagine the luxury brand, you can find it on this street.

It's a woman's paradise as well as a rich man's paradise!

The Champs-Élysées is one of the most important streets in Paris, and its straight streets allow visitors to see far away, such as the Louvre and its pyramids, the Arc de Triomphe, the Tuile Gardens, the Obelisk, the Arc de Triomphe, and further to the west, the Grand Arch de Fanse outside Paris.

It is no exaggeration to say that this avenue is also the historical axis of the western side of Paris.

The Champs-Élysées is also the site of the French National Day Parade on July 14, the day on which the French Supreme President visits the street to inspect the soldiers of the French Republic with millions of people.

The Tour de France, one of the world's most famous sporting events, uses the Champs-Élysées as the final stage of the race.

On this street, racers who have experienced a full Tour de France can ride on this street to their heart's content and enjoy the cheers of the fans.

This is the Champs-Élysées!

The intersection of Avenue George V and Avenue des Champs-Élysées is located in the middle of the Champs-Élysées, opposite the junction, on the north side of the Champs-Élysées, is the famous Parisian Lido nightclub.

The dance in the Lido nightclub in Paris is known as the world's first, and it is estimated that it is the only one in the world that can turn the dance into an artistic dance.

However, Yang Jing has no hobby for this kind of glamorous dance, and he naturally doesn't want to go in this Lido nightclub to play.

Although Princess Diana and Margaret Thatcher like to come here to enjoy the dance, Yang Jing is really not interested in it.

From the junction, walk east along the Champs-Élysées to the Place de la Concorde, where you can see the Palais des Royals in Paris, and after arriving at the Place de la Concorde, you can visit the Tuile Gardens and the Louvre.

However, Yang Jing didn't have the heart to go east, although the name of the Concorde Square was like thunder, but in the same way, the thief in the square made people talk about it.

To put it bluntly, there were even more thieves on the Place de la Concorde than the San Tuan flea market that Yang Jing had ever visited.

After all, there are more than 100,000 tourists who go to the Concorde Square every day, and these tourists are out-and-out fat sheep in the eyes of those thieves!

Yang Jing didn't want to become a fat sheep himself, so he simply didn't go there.

What are you doing there?

Someone stolen, I feel uncomfortable, I see others being stolen, I can't be a hero and a hero, those thieves are all gangs, you dare to be a hero, and you are definitely the one who is unlucky in the end.

So simply don't go, out of sight and out of mind.

I came out by myself to play, not to find sin.

After making up his mind, Yang Jing walked all the way west along the street.

The triumphal arch was in front of him, and Yang Jing walked for less than twenty minutes before he came to this legendary building.

In fact, there are nine Arc de Triomphe in Paris, but the largest and most famous is undoubtedly the one that stands in the heart of Place Charles de Gaulle.

At the beginning of the eighteenth century, Napoleon ordered the construction of this imposing triumphal arch to commemorate the defeat of the Russian-Austrian coalition, but when the large arch with a height of 4,954 meters, a width of 4,482 meters and a thickness of 2,221 meters was repaired, it was found that this big guy affected traffic.

So in the middle of the 19th century, a circular square was built around the Arc de Triomphe, Place Charles de Gaulle, and 12 roads, each 40 to 80 meters wide, radial, like the brilliant light of the stars, so that Charles de Gaulle Square is also called the Place de la Centrium.

The Arc de Triomphe is also known as the "Star Gate".

There are doors on all sides of the Arc de Triomphe, and on the walls of the two piers, there are four groups of large reliefs with the theme of war: "Expedition", "Victory", "Peace" and "Resistance".

The Arc de Triomphe is engraved with the names of the 386 generals who followed Napoleon's expedition and 96 victories, and the history of the French war between 1792 and 1815 is engraved on the door.

After admiring the Arc de Triomphe below, Yang Jing came to the basement floor of the Arc de Triomphe, where he could climb the spiral staircase all the way to the top of the Arc de Triomphe.

Yang Jing is an international student, holds a student passport, and is less than 26 years old, so it is free for him to climb to the top of the Arc de Triomphe.

Climb up the spiral staircase to the top of the Arc de Triomphe, and look out over the twelve radial avenues, which is a wonderful feeling.

Yang Jing even felt that he had become Napoleon the Great more than 300 years ago at this moment, overlooking the entire Grand Paris ps: Bow and thank you for the 500 tips of "Ice Octave" and "Hu Fear Ho", and the tips of 100 for "Seeing People in the Lights" and "I Believe in 123"!
