Chapter 665: Lord Van Gaal's Manor

……

"It's 3.69 million euros in total!"

As a member of the European Union, the Netherlands naturally also accepts euros, so after Liu Dong said that he could pay euros, Lao Ace settled in euros.

After listening, after a little consideration, Liu Dong nodded, except for the Delacroix's "Mrs. Ornar" worth 2.5 million euros, the remaining 5 pieces, together with the two Qing Dynasty official kilns, are only more than one million euros, but Cézanne's landscape paintings made Liu Dong pick up a big bargain, otherwise the value of this painting would be more than 5 million euros.

Of course, the Liangzhu Yucong that Liu Dong picked up and leaked is even more leaky, and the national treasure-level thing is just a partner here in Old Ace!

Seeing that Liu Dong did not hesitate to sign a check for 3.69 million euros from a Swiss bank and handed it over to himself, Lao Ace believed what Fang Zhonghua said just now, and the young man in front of him was a billionaire!

Thinking of this, Old Ace's heart moved, and he looked directly at Liu Dongdao, who was packing up his things: "I don't know if Mr. Liu is still willing to buy antiques?" ”

Hearing this, Liu... 9 Dong was stunned for a moment and said, "Mr. Ace still has good things here?" ”

"Hehe, that's all I've collected this month, but I know a few friends, and my family is also engaged in collecting. Now it is preparing to sell some antiques. If Mr. Liu is interested. I can refer you on your behalf! ”

After Lao Ace finished speaking, Liu Dong immediately understood what he meant, and his feelings were that after realizing that he was a rich man, he was quite an antique broker!

However, Liu Dong did not reject this, as long as the other party could find good things for himself, so he said directly at the moment: "Mr. Ace, tell your conditions, as long as it is not too much." I can consider it all! ”

"2% of the transaction amount as an intermediary fee!" Old Ace's eyes lit up and he said immediately.

He likes to do this kind of antique intermediary the most, because it is a business without capital, and he can collect money on both sides.

"No problem!" Liu Dong nodded after a little consideration, it is about this number in China, and the other party's request is not too much.

"When can I go?" After negotiating the conditions, Liu Dongdao.

"I'll make a call, you guys wait a minute!"

Watching Old Ace call by himself, Fang Zhonghua, who had not interjected just now, said: "Xiaodong, do you still want to collect antiques?" ”

Originally, he thought that after spending nearly four million euros to collect six different antiques this time, Liu Dong would almost be satisfied, but he didn't expect the other party to buy a large amount of money!

"yes. I've just joined the antiques shop, and I don't have much to collect. If you have the chance, of course, you will have to buy a few more! Liu Dong did not say to Zhonghua that he would rebuild the Old Summer Palace and run his own private museum, after all, this matter has not yet been seen, and the impact is too great, and when there is no specific result, Liu Dong does not plan to publicize it.

"Don't have a lot to collect?" After asking a rhetorical question, Fang Zhonghua said angrily: "Just the things you missed when you joined the club last time are richer than my current collection!" ”

Hearing this, he smiled, Liu Dong didn't say anything, but looked at the old Ace who hung up the phone and walked back!

"I just got in touch, the other party has time, if you are free, we can go over now!" Old Ace Dao.

"Of course I'm free!" After responding, Liu Dong turned to Fang Zhonghua and said, "How is it, Brother Fang?" Are you going to come with me, or are you going back to the hotel yourself? ”

"Of course we went together, how could this kind of thing be missing me!" Fang Zhonghua said without hesitation.

Also, in the middle of going back to the hotel and seeing more excellent antiques, as long as anyone in the antique shop will choose the latter.

Because Liu Dong and Fang Zhonghua didn't have a car, the things they bought in the antique shop this time could only be temporarily stored in Lao Ace's shop and taken away when they came back.

Although Liu Dong has relics and yuanguang, he cannot be exposed to people.

After settling down, the three of them drove to the outskirts of Amsterdam in the Mercedes-Benz of Old Ace, and the endless farmland and windmills dotted along the way were like a colorful landscape painting engraved in Liu Dong's mind.

"It's been years since I've been here, but it's still so simple, simple and beautiful, if only I could live here for a while!" Fang Zhonghua sighed.

"Okay, if you want, I can help you inquire, I believe there are many farmhouses here who are willing to receive you!" Old Ace Road driving.

"Hehe, forget it!" It's just a pleasure to live over, Fang Zhonghua has not experienced the joy of farm life.

Hearing this, Liu Dong smiled, and his eyes moved to the manor that was already faintly visible in the distance next to the road.

"Old Ace, is the van Gaal family's manor you said earlier?" Fang Zhonghua asked.

"Yes, the Van Gaal family is one of the families that is still thriving during the Dutch Golden Age, but now the family is also starting to decline!" Old Ace said with a hint of regret in his tone.

Just as the Chinese miss the Han and Tang dynasties, the Dutch also miss the 17th century, when the Netherlands was known as the golden age of 'sea coachmen'!

However, although China has survived many disasters until now, its civilization has always been inherited, and the country is still one of the world's largest countries, and it still has the opportunity to dominate the world, but the Netherlands can never rise again!

Liu Dong and Fang Zhonghua, who fully understood the feelings of Lao Ace, did not talk much, until the car came to the front of a steel gate surrounded by a wall 3 meters high on all sides and a steel gate with a width of four meters in the middle.

Because there was a camera on the door, Old Ace just made a phone call, and the originally closed door slowly opened to both sides, and when Old Ace drove in, the two leopards on both sides of the door who were firmly locked in the iron cage by finger-thick steel bars let out a low roar.

Looking at their fierce gaze and the figure that was quickly swimming in the cage, although Liu Dong didn't feel anything, the hairs on Fang Zhonghua's body stood up.

"I really don't know, what do these foreign rich people think, just raise a few dogs, but I like to raise lions, tigers, leopards, crocodiles and other fierce beasts at home, and I am not afraid of injury!" Fang Zhonghua complained.

Hearing this, Liu Dong smiled faintly, if it weren't for the domestic law, I am afraid that the rich people in China would also raise such a beast. No way, that man doesn't want to show his status and bravery, and it is undoubtedly a good idea to keep a few of these beasts in his own home, and he can also take care of the home!

Because Fang Zhonghua spoke Chinese, Old Ace couldn't understand what he said, but after a few glances at him, he drove seriously.

To be honest, compared to Liu Dong's manor on the top of the villa area of Wohu Mountain, which reaches more than 15,000 square meters, this Van Gaal family's manor is slightly smaller, about 12,000 square meters.

In the middle is a 2,000-square-meter, 25-meter-high, four-storey main building, from the slightly mottled white walls, as well as delicate window lattices and intricate wrought iron, it can be seen that this villa has gone through a long time.

On the left side of this main building, there is also a two-storey spire building covering an area of about 400 square meters, and Liu Dong does not know the purpose. However, in addition to these two only buildings, except for the small fountain square covering an area of 1,500 square meters in the middle, and the swimming pool at the back of the house, the rest are lush gardens, and of course, white marble sculptures are indispensable!

When Old Ace drove Liu Dong and Fang Zhonghua around the fountain in the small square, and then stopped near the door of the central main building, a middle-aged white man with blond hair and blue eyes in a plaid shirt and brown trousers was already waiting outside the door.

"Lord Van Gaal!" After getting out of the car, Old Ace saluted respectfully.

Although the nobility in the Netherlands is not as respected as in the United Kingdom, and few people even care about it, as a nobleman himself, he values this honor very much, so the actions of old Ace immediately made the Lord Van Gaal smile a little more on his face.

"Old Ace, thank God you have brought me good news!" Lord Van Gaal laughed.

"Your kindness, Mr. Lord! …… This is Mr. Liu, whom I mentioned to you on the phone before! ”

"Hello Mr. Lord!" Liu Dong, who was instructed by Lao Ace in advance, had just the right etiquette.

"Hello!"

Although the other party had a smile on his face, there was still a trace of disappointment in his eyes, it was obvious that he was not optimistic about Liu Dong's strength, after all, the other party was too young, even if he was rich, he might not be too much!

Liu Dong, who is observant of words and feelings, can more or less guess what the other party thinks, but instead of bothering with words, it is better to speak with practical actions.

After Fang Zhonghua greeted the other party, the group of three walked towards the main hall of the villa under the leadership of Lord Van Gaal.

This is the first time Liu Dong has the opportunity to appreciate the style of the European aristocratic manor, in this more than 200 square meters, about 5 meters high luxury living room walls are hung with oil paintings, originally Liu Dong thought that this is at most just a decoration of low value, but when he used the relics under his curiosity, he found that the aura on each oil painting is so rich, including Cézanne, Thoreau, Rembrandt these masters of the painting.

Moreover, the solid wood furniture displayed in the hall, the sculptures in the corners, the porcelain used for decoration, the wine cups, tea sets, and even the carpets used for hospitality, and the crystal lamps on the ceiling all have different shades of aura, which makes Liu Dong marvel that the collection of an old aristocrat is so rich, and at the same time, it also makes his heart extremely hot.

"Lord Van Gaal, any of these paintings are truly masterpieces!" Liu Dong exclaimed.

"They are all accumulated by the Van Gaal family over the generations, and each one is priceless!" Van Gaal had a look of pride on his face.

In the home of any upper-class person in Europe, a rich collection can show a person's status, and of course it is also a disguised investment! (To be continued......)
