Chapter 20 The Police Call

A Chinese student studying in the UK found three sketches of Picasso in a flea market. The news, like the shock wave after a mushroom bomb exploded, quickly spread throughout Greater London and even half of Europe.

As a veteran professor at Royal Holloway, Professor Wilson himself is an expert in studying Picasso's works, so the news from him is naturally very important. Not to mention that there are three other experts who are similar to Professor Wilson who jointly proved that the three paintings are indeed authentic works of Picasso.

Of the three experts hired by Professor Wilson, two are senior experts from the British Museum, and one is from the Picasso Museum in Barcelona, ​​Spain. This expert is the deputy director of the Picasso Museum.

Together with Professor Wilson, the identification results issued by these four people are sufficient to prove that these three paintings are authentic works of Picasso.

With Yang Jing's permission, Professor Wilson took photos of the three paintings and uploaded them on the Internet. Now that it has been decided to sell these three paintings, news about these three paintings must be spread, otherwise how to attract potential buyers to bid?

This is an authentic work of Picasso. Although it is only the cheapest sketch, it is also drawn by Picasso. If it does not attract a lot of rich people to bid for the painting, how can the price be raised?

Sure enough, when Professor Wilson uploaded the photos of these three paintings on the Internet, there was a sensation in London and even half of Europe.

The two experts from the British Museum wanted to buy the three paintings directly, but Yang Jing did not agree.

Just kidding, this is an authentic painting by Picasso, and it is a painting that has never appeared on the record. If you want to spend 300,000 pounds, you can take it away. You really think you are a fool! If it weren't for the face of you who have worked so hard to appraise these three paintings for us, my buddies would have driven you away long ago!

If it is reasonable to say that the two experts from the British Museum wanted to buy the three paintings at a low price, then the approach of the deputy curator from the Picasso Museum in Barcelona is simply whimsical.

Yang, these three paintings are the painstaking efforts of Mr. Picasso. I think that Mr. Picasso would like to see his paintings appreciated by more people in heaven, so I sincerely beg you to donate these three sketches. Give us the Picasso Museum, so that more people can appreciate Mr. Picasso's works.

Faced with this almost shameless request, Yang Jing and Fatty were almost outraged!

donate? Why don't you donate the money in your pocket to us!

Why should I donate the paintings I have worked so hard to donate to your museum for free? Is it because the words Picasso hang on your museum?

Come on, why don't you stay where you are cool, buddy can't afford to serve you?

And not only these three, but in the next few days, people from the Louvre in Paris, the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain, and several other famous museums in Europe came to ask Yang Jing to give these three paintings free of charge. donate.

Even the folks at Madame Tussauds in London have made such a claim.

Well, whether it is the Louvre or the Prado Museum, it is understandable to make such a request. After all, they are serious museums. In order to allow more tourists to see the authentic works of Picasso, although they make such a request is a bit excessive But at any rate it can be justified.

But what do you guys from Madame Tussauds mean by making such a request? You are only engaged in wax figures, when did you switch to calligraphy and painting?

Shameless! How shameless!

It's hard to imagine how long the brain circuits of these Europeans are!

Free donation, you really dare to think about it! Why don't you donate those treasures in your library for free? If you dare to donate, buddies dare to donate these three paintings too!

Your sister, the two brothers are more alike than Xiaoniao! If you don't donate, why should I donate?

In order to avoid more such situations from happening, Yang Jing said to these people with certainty, I'm sorry, my buddy is in urgent need of money, so these three paintings will not be donated to the museum, so, you all give up on this idea. .

Throwing those museum folks down with words like that didn't calm things down.

Because the people in the museum here just calmed down, a few people over there who caught Yang Jing and Guo Xiaoxiang by surprise came to the door.

This morning Yang Jing had just woken up and was brushing his teeth when there was a knock on the door.

Excuse me, are you Albert Yang? An international student from China? Yang Jing opened the door, and there were three people in London police uniforms standing outside the door. Yang Jing was really taken aback.

Yang Jing just hesitated for a moment and said directly: That's right, I am Albert Yang, from Huaxia. What can I do for you?

Hello, Mr. Yang, we are officers from the Egham Township Police Department, and I am Sergeant Holmes. We received a report that you have three sketches of Picasso here. The reporter said that these three paintings You obtained it illegally from his house, so we need to take you to the police station to inquire about related matters. Oh yes, the reporter claimed to be Mr. Bob John, the steward of the Fishgard Vardy family, I think you should Do you know him?

When Yang Jing heard this, his whole body trembled.

He looked at the three big-shouldered policemen in front of him, thought for a while, then narrowed his eyes and asked, Mr. Police Officer, I do know Mr. John, but I don't understand why he reported such a case, because I didn't get any Mr. Picasso from him illegally. Yes, I have three sketches of Picasso in my possession, but I didn't get them from Mr. John, I

Sheriff Holmes waved his hand and interrupted Yang Jing, Mr. Yang, it's useless for you to explain these things to me here. I hope you can follow me to the police station. You can explain after we sit together. these things.

Sheriff Holmes shrugged his shoulders and said, You know, our police need procedures in handling cases, so please respect our procedures. Let's go, Mr. Yang.

Yang Jing looked at the fat man who ran out when he heard the sound, and found that this guy was only wearing a pair of underwear, so he said helplessly: Can you wait for me for a while? Let me change clothes, okay?

No problem, but please change your clothes quickly, we are very busy at work.

Yang Jing didn't even close the door, he couldn't close it even if he wanted to, the police won't let you close the door to cut off their sight.

Guo Xiaoxiang asked nervously, What's going on?

Yang Jing shook his head and said: I don't know what's going on, anyway, the police from Egham came to the door, and they named the three paintings by name. It is estimated that the Vardy family knew that we have three paintings. A Picasso painting, and this is here to find fault.

I'm ugly! How do they know we have a Picasso painting in our hands?

Hehe, do you need to talk about it? Of course I saw the news on the Internet. I said fat man, don't ask those useless things. Now the Vardy family is here, so we have to deal with it well. Then What, I'll go to the police station with the police, you can find a lawyer for me first, without a lawyer, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to keep those three paintings! By the way, don't say anything when the lawyer comes, just talk about those three paintings I bought it at the Greenwich handicraft market for 300 pounds! You must kill this matter, and you can just shirk and don’t know about the rest! This matter can only be known by the two of us, and the third person will definitely Can't know, do you understand?

The fat man nodded heavily and said, Don't worry, Lao Yang, I will leave this matter to me!
