After saying this, Hao Sue hung up the phone without waiting for Jiang Ping to answer. Jiang Ping, who was holding the phone, could only smile helplessly, shook his head and muttered softly: "This old guy, his temper has always been like this!"

Although Hao Sue's tone was not very polite, he found another pigment in such a short period of time, which also made Jiang Ping quite satisfied. He had come to Paris to find those three pigments, and since he had hope, he certainly couldn't let it go. So at the appointed time the next day, Jiang Ping came to Hao Sue's store on time.

"Sit!" Hao Sue asked Jiang Ping to sit down for the first time, and then said to him a little embarrassedly: "I found the paint, but ......"

Jiang Ping knew that no matter how well he said anything before, once he added this "but", it would be over. So he didn't speak, but waited patiently for Hao Sue to continue.

“…… However, the seller said he wanted to meet with you. Hao Sue put forward the seller's request, rubbed his hands in embarrassment, and said: "I know that this is a bit unruly, but this kind of pigment is getting less and less now, and all I know is that this seller has it, so I suggest you meet with him." ”

Speaking of this, Hao Su glanced at Jiang Ping and found that he was not angry, and then continued: "And I can assure you that this seller is absolutely reliable." He's just a little curious about you and won't pose any threat to you, trust me!"

Hao Sue is a person who values his reputation very seriously, and even he himself felt that this was unruly, so he said to Jiang Ping embarrassedly: "I didn't do this well, so I won't charge you money for this kind of pigment, and you can just negotiate the price directly with the seller." What do you think?"

Speaking from the heart. Jiang Ping still believes in Hao Sue's reputation. And in this life, he doesn't have the same connections as in his previous life. Now there is Hao Chau who can be reached. Since there was no other choice, and Hao Sue also guaranteed that the seller was reliable, Jiang Ping nodded and agreed to the other party's suggestion after thinking about it.

Seeing Jiang Ping talking so well, a trace of emotion appeared on Hao Sue's face. However, in terms of his character, it is absolutely impossible to say any words of thanks, so he just nodded lightly at Jiang Ping and said, "Okay, I'll call him." ”

The seller also seemed to be very interested in Jiang Ping, and it didn't take long for Hao Sue to call. The other party hurried over. This is a man who is not a few years older than Jiang Ping, and he is full of famous brands from head to toe, and it can be seen that his living conditions are very good.

However, this man is different from Robert Lorenzo, and it can be seen that he has a more calm and introverted personality, and he is not the kind of person who likes to show off. After greeting Hao Sue, the man politely introduced himself to Jiang Ping, saying that his name was Nicolas Piero.

"I'm sorry to make such a request. Nicholas said to Jiang Ping very politely: "Thank you for your willingness to meet me, thank you." ”

"Mr. Piero was so polite. Since the other party was so polite, Jiang Ping also said very gracefully: "It's a pleasure to meet you." ”

"Me too. Nicholas said to Jiang Ping with a smile: "Actually, I met Mr. Jiang because I was a little curious. I'd like to ask you a question. ”

Jiang Ping didn't speak, but waited for Nicholas to continue with a smile on his face.

However, Nicholas did not speak immediately. Instead, he glanced at Hao Sue with some embarrassment. Obviously, his next words were a little sensitive, and he didn't want too many people to know.

Hao Sue is indeed a guy with a lot of character, and when he saw this, he immediately snorted coldly and said: "I have a small shop here, you better go and talk elsewhere, don't hinder me from doing business!"

Jiang Ping and Nicholas both knew Hao Suo's character, and they didn't take it seriously at his words, the two just looked at each other and smiled, and then left his shop.

After coming outside, Nicholas seemed to be a lot more relaxed, and said to Jiang Ping with a smile: "Otherwise, if we talk and leave, it shouldn't delay Mr. Lin much." ”

In his heart, Jiang Ping really has little interest in shopping on the road with a man. However, for the sake of the other party having the kind of paint he needed, he nodded very simply.

Nicholas was very happy, and hurriedly said to Jiang Ping: "Mr. Jiang, please!"

The two walked out of the Victor's Bazaar, and Jiang Ping took the initiative to ask Nicholas: "I don't know what is the matter with Mr. Piero wanting to see me?"

"I also know that this is not in accordance with the rules, but because of the high stakes, I have to do this, and I ask Mr. Lin's understanding. Nicholas greeted Jiang Ping very sincerely, and then took out a ring to show him: "I don't know if Mr. Jiang knows this ring?"

Jiang Ping just glanced at it, and immediately said with some surprise: "It turns out that you are from the Piero family!"

Speaking of the Piero family, it is also a well-known family in Europe. The whole family has a lot of industries in the open and covert, not only throughout Europe, but also extending its tentacles to all over the world. According to conservative estimates, the combined value of the Piero family's assets is at least hundreds of billions of dollars, and they can definitely be regarded as predators in the business field.

In addition to their success in business, the Piero family also has a very close relationship with politics. Over the years, the Piero family has maintained good relations with the political circles of many European countries, and many people in the family have served as parliamentarians in several European countries, so it can be said that they have a high status in the political and business circles.

However, Jiang Ping, who has the memory of his previous life, knows that the strength of the Piero family is not only something that people can see. In fact, this is a big family that eats both black and white, and its influence in the underworld is definitely no worse than that of the white road.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, it is understandable that the Piero family has such a huge fortune, and without the corresponding strength to protect it, it will only become fat in the eyes of others.

Of course, the Piero family is still very careful about the choice of underworld business. They don't do business like drug trafficking and human trafficking. The focus of the underworld business is on smuggling, opening nightclubs and other projects, although they do not make much money, but they do not attract much attention from the authorities.

And the Piero family has covered up their underworld business very well, and the vast majority of people don't know about it. Only a world-famous thief like Jiang Ping would have heard of the secrets of the Piero family.

Unexpectedly, Nicholas was actually a member of the Piero family, and Jiang Ping couldn't help but be a little more vigilant. He didn't want to get involved with the Piero family anymore, so it didn't do any good.

In Nicholas's opinion, since Jiang Ping was able to go to the Victor's Bazaar to buy things, it was not surprising that he could recognize the identity ring of the Piero family. He put away the ring with a gloomy expression, and smiled awkwardly at Jiang Ping: "No, I'm not a member of the Piero family yet." ”

Nicholas's words were a little strange, Jiang Ping couldn't help frowning, waiting for him to explain to himself.

Nicholas didn't let Jiang Ping last long, and quickly said to him: "To be precise, I will not be able to really become a member of the Piero family until a month later." ”

Seeing that Jiang Ping still didn't quite understand what he meant, Piero then explained to him: "I am an illegitimate child, and my father is John Piero!"

Jiang Ping was secretly surprised when he heard this, John Piero was the current patriarch of the Piero family. He originally thought that Nicolas was just the illegitimate son of a member of the Piero family, but he didn't expect that he was actually the son of the patriarch of the family, and the amount was completely different.

Nicholas didn't notice Jiang Ping's surprise, and just said to himself: "I was originally not accepted by the family, and my father also planned to let one of his nephews inherit his position. Recently, however, my father has become older, and he has changed his mind and wants his own children to take over the family...... At least take over most of the family's business, so, you get the idea?"

As soon as Nicholas said this, Jiang Ping of course immediately understood. Speaking of which, it is an illegitimate child who was suddenly recognized by his biological father, and then became a handsome and rich dog blood story from a dick. No wonder Nicholas was reluctant to talk about it in front of others, after all, it was not a glorious thing to be someone else's illegitimate child.

However, Jiang Ping still didn't understand, even if Nicholas was the son of the patriarch of the Piero family, and he was going to be officially accepted by the family recently, and became the next patriarch, what did it have to do with him? Why did Nicholas want to see him, this was completely unnecessary!

Nicholas saw Jiang Ping's doubts, but he didn't reveal the secret immediately, just looked at him and asked word by word: "I just want to know, what are you going to buy that kind of pigment for." I hope you'll be honest, because it's about whether you can get that paint or not!"

As if feeling that it was not enough for him to say this, Nicholas added: "And as far as I know, there are no more than five people in the world who have this pigment now, and I happen to be one of them." And the other four aren't easy to mess with, and you don't even want to get paint from them. ”

Looking at Nicholas's determined expression, Jiang Ping felt that if he didn't give him a logical answer, he would definitely not be able to get paint from Nicholas.

However, Jiang Ping couldn't tell Nicholas the truth of the matter, so it would be better if he couldn't get paint. He just thought silently for a moment, and then said to Nicholas in a deep voice: "I can tell you the truth, but you must keep it secret. ”

"Don't worry, I can swear to God!" Nicholas made a solemn assurance, waiting for Jiang Ping to uncover the mystery.

"Actually...... I'm a painter and I like to copy medieval paintings. Jiang Ping said to Nicholas half-truthfully: "Recently, I want to copy a painting, and I need to use this kind of paint. ”

Jiang Ping, of course, this is a tactful statement, who knows that his so-called "copying" is actually just a forgery. If it's just a simple copy, why use such precious pigments?

However, Jiang Ping's answer made Nicholas very happy, and he immediately said to him impatiently: "Since you like to copy ancient paintings, then let's make a deal!" (To be continued......)
