Rows of pines and cypresses line up on the yellowed meadows, a 200-meter-long boulevard leads to the towering castle, and the Finnish marble wall encloses the entire castle, like a small town built on the top of a hill.

In front of the castle, there is no parking lot that is common in modern society, and the bodyguards wearing white gloves and black suits are like gentlemen, patrolling the surroundings, and there are special people who are responsible for picking up and dropping off guests, driving small passenger trams, on call at any time in the manor.

Bai Bingbing's old professor Maozi is an authentic British, although his appearance is informal, in this environment, he naturally puts on a gentleman's style, politely handed over the Qing Khmer, and exchanged a few words with a person who looks like a bodyguard, as if he was introducing Fang Luo and a few of them, the head of the bodyguard looked at Fang Luo and Wang Yongle a few times, and his eyes lingered on Sun Hanning and Bai Bingbing for a while, picked up the walkie-talkie and said a few words, and finally nodded, waved his hand and called two battery cars to come over, and drove them to the castle respectively。

According to Professor Adam, the collectors invited this time are basically well-known people in the art world, about dozens of people, and most of the attention is on John's famous paintings, and they are not too interested in some of John's collection of Chinese cultural relics, such as Chinese antiques, porcelain and Chinese paintings, and they should not meet too strong competitors.

This made Fang Luo a little strange, he didn't understand how Rupert, a declining "artist", got in, but it was hard to say, after all, he was also a "painter" and now a billionaire, it should be easy to get an admission ticket, didn't he and Wang Yongle also get the light of Professor Adam?

The castles in Northern Europe are generally built according to the manor, which is the center of the manor, and the same is true for the lion castle, compared to some famous castles that are protected by the state and owned, the scale is actually not large, but despite this, the scale is enough to be more than a dozen small villas, and the manor occupies a large area, sitting on the battery car, it also takes nearly ten minutes to come to the entrance of the castle.

This is a plant manor, there are no food crops growing, all the varieties planted are some evergreen varieties in all seasons, and some shrub evergreen plants can't even be named by Zhou Yi, the master planter, and are pruned into regular shapes, like a maze.

The battery car is driving inside, there are green walls everywhere, left and right to make people dizzy, such a design is not only unique, but also has a certain security role, if there are stupid thieves entering, even without those security guards to help, just this plant maze can make them dizzy, trapped in it.

Wang Yongle seems to like this design very much, and he has been watching carefully all the way, maybe he is preparing to make a plant gossip array in his mansion?

After entering the castle, Rupert and Emma were not seen, and as soon as some of the Collectors and Fang Luo who had also been invited arrived, a smiling butler-like figure in a tuxedo arranged for them to enter the room to rest.

Fang Luo can be regarded as an eye-opener, look at the aristocratic style of the people, from the housekeeper to the maid, all of them are top-notch appearances, the etiquette is fine to the angle of bowing, the depth of the laugh lines, there are rules and methods in the arrangement, they think of what the guests think, and they still think of what the guests don't think.

For example, Adam and Bai Bingbing, both majoring in Western painting, hang representative works in Western painting in their rooms, although they are fakes, the painting level is master, and in the six-meter-high room, the entire wall is full of books and materials related to Western painting

Wang Yongle's identity Professor Adam only mentioned it roughly, but soon a room suitable for him appeared, there was actually a talking starling in the room, the fish tank was a rare and precious fish species, and even the set of cups used for drinking water were imitation Yuan blue and white, and there was even a snuff bottle, in fact, Wang Yongle didn't use the snuff bottle, but when he picked it up, it was still a genuine and famous product, and it was a good thing that was difficult to touch in Kyoto, China.

Fang Luo's house is similar to Wang Yongle's, and he enjoys it very much.

……

In the main hall of the ancient castle, collectors and philanthropists from all over the world are gathering at this moment, and a very small number of giant businessmen who are obviously famous and have faintly surpassed the level of merchants, such as Li Nie, the richest man in China, who has just arrived.

With Adam in the middle, coupled with his immense prestige, it is conceivable to become a guest of honor.

"Mr. Fang, look up for a long time. ”

"Mr. Li, this really flatters me. ”

Li Nie took the initiative to say hello, which made Fang Luo a little flattered, but the latter thought about it carefully, he was now a god, how could he be bluffed by the identity of the other party, and he also took a deep breath and kept a normal heart to talk to him.

It's just that Fang Luo couldn't figure out why Li Nie would take the initiative to greet him.

It had been three days since Fang Luo arrived at the Lion Castle, and this was the first time he had seen Lord John, an old man who was very well-dressed, and he was retro to his bones.

On today's grand occasion, he wore a white and gold wig, a golden dress, and his open chest did not reveal a charming cleavage, but pink lined lace, and white thick stockings on his legs, and thick-soled boat-shaped high heels.

"Oh, dear Lord John, it is a great honor to see you. ”

Li Nie's richest man is a sedan chair man, with his current status, he really doesn't need to be so polite to an outdated nobleman, but he still gave John enough face, which made the old nobleman laugh sharply: "It's also my honor to meet Mr. Li, Mr. Li, let me guess, do you fancy the treasure of "Chen Siwang"?"

Sure enough, it's Cao Zhi's tomb!

Fang Luo didn't feel anything, Wang Yongle, who pretended to be half a literati, suddenly changed his face, Chen Siwang, who became a poem in seven steps, is a monument in the eyes of ancient and modern literati, and when he hears that it is about his treasure, he will be tempted by a literati, Wang Yongle has already begun to calculate, except that this thing is something that Li Jucheng is bound to get, and he must not touch it.

The rest of the objects must not fall into the hands of those old Maozi, Koryo sticks, or even island people.

Although Wang Yongle is a little shy, he is definitely not a fool.

He knew that he couldn't compete with Li Nie, the richest man.

This time, John invited collectors almost all over Europe and Asia, he looked down on the big old beauty, thinking that this kind of country with no historical background to talk about antiques is a big joke, black Africa is a third-class region in the eyes of European aristocrats, and it is not in his consideration, but several famous collectors of the island country and Nanbang have arrived, and they may become Fang Luo's competitors, especially Nanbang, it is estimated that in their opinion, Cao Zhi is also a native of the big stick country, and they have the sacred mission of welcoming the national treasure.

"Hehe, Lord John has a good eye. ”

Li Nie smiled and said: "But I'm also very interested in Western paintings, I heard that you also have a few Western paintings for sale this time, if it's a good thing, I will also buy some, you can take possession of our national treasure, and we Chinese people should also take action, right?"

"Okay, the auction is about to start, of course Mr. Li can choose to buy what you like, I won't accompany you, hehe. John laughed dryly and politely left.

Wang Yongle snorted coldly: "These old Maozi, there is not a good thing, and they take the things of our ancestors and auction them magnificently, it is really unreasonable, I bah!"

Taking back the national treasure of the country is the purpose of Fang Luo and the others' trip.

As soon as Wang Yongle proposed, Fang Luo just nodded and agreed.

After all, they are all national treasures of their own country.
