After chatting, Qin Shiou remembered the letter he found with the painting, so he took it out and asked, "Who has better eyes, come and take a look at this letter, I believe this letter is also a treasure." ”

The letter seems to be in English, but it is too sloppy, and the grammar is different from modern English, Qin Shiou can't understand it, so it has been shelved.

Little Black took it and looked at it, and said, "Oh, this is Dutch, it belongs to the Indo-European language family-Germanic language family-West Germanic branch, it is between German and English, which are also Germanic languages, and it is closer to English than any language, huh......"

As he spoke, Little Blake suddenly frowned, he read the letter carefully, and then raised his head in surprise and smiled: "Qin, you're right, this is indeed a treasure!" This is Van Gogh's own letter, which he wrote to his brother Theo! ”

As soon as he heard this, Shashewski and the others surrounded him, and Qin Shiou couldn't understand it, so he asked Little Black to read it to him.

"Dear brother, see that I am now in Arles, in the south of France......"

"Don't worry about me, my brother, I'm fine now, living in the Benedictine Abbey in Montmajour......"

"It's a beautiful place, and at sunset yesterday I was in a stone-strewn ← wilderness with squirming squwarf oak trees. There is a relic on the mountain in the distance, and there is a wheat field in the valley, which is too romantic. In Montiseli, the sun does not hesitate to cast a golden light on the shrubs and the earth, and every qiē is shrouded in gold. How beautiful the lines are, and the whole view reveals a charming nobility......"

"I was inspired and I wanted to make a picture for it. I also made this picture. I'm not satisfied, though, and the color transitions aren't very good. The style of painting is also a bit dark. But my brother, I'm happy now. I was inspired a lot by creating this painting in Montmajour......"

"Believe me, my brother, your brother is about to become a world-famous painter! May God bless you, may you always be healthy and happy, and my soul will always be by your side, Amen. Vincent Van Gogh. ”

Little Blake read slowly, and the others listened quietly, Qin Shiou closed his eyes and vaguely saw a lonely and sad middle-aged man standing on the wilderness of the sunset. In front of him, an oak tree on the left, a wheat field on the right.

As the saying goes, hell goes to the left, and heaven goes to the right......

After reading the contents of the letter, little Blake carefully placed the letter on the painting and said: "Van Gogh is right, he has indeed opened a new era of painting style after this painting, and he has indeed become a world-famous great painter." It's a pity he didn't wait. If he could be as resilient as Picasso, he would have to wait another ten years for him to see him adored by artists all over the world! ”

The last group of people left the basement, and Shashefsky said to Qin Shiou: "With this letter. Then the identity of the painting is even more unquestionable, and you now have to think about whether to sell it or collect it, and you don't need to think about anything else. ”

Little Black and Billy also looked at Qin Shiou. The two of them were not so philistine, and Little Black persuaded: "Qin." Bookmark it, this painting will continue to grow in value. And it has a special significance, it is Van Gogh's transformation......"

"Can this special meaning help us auction it for a higher price?" Qin Shiou said with a smile.

Save this painting? Forget it, the family is already a thief, and hanging a famous painting worth forty or fifty million is simply roasting himself on the fire, so he doesn't do it.

What about depositing your paintings in a bank or museum? So why not save it for money? Waiting for the value of this painting to appreciate, no, Qin Shiou would rather sell this painting and invest it in the fishing ground, which will increase in value faster.

When Qin Shiou said this, Little Black and Billy also laughed, thank God, they will be able to share the money soon.

After dinner in the evening, Qin Shiou arranged for a few people to stay - now the accommodation in the town is tight, but many people use their brains, almost every household in the town provides accommodation, so that tourists can experience the pure life of a small town in North America, which is similar to the domestic farmhouse.

It is still very convenient for Qin Shiou to find a hotel, and he has too much face in the town now.

Back at the villa, Qin Shiou lay down on the bed and put the Poseidon Consciousness into the fishing ground, and it has become a pleasure for him to swim in the ocean with the Poseidon Consciousness.

The Gun Squid Laborers had arrived near the wreck of the Titanic, Qin Shiou asked them to choose a place to live, and then slowly cleaned up the Titanic.

Under the transformation of the Poseidon energy, the spear squid are full of vitality and grow rapidly, when they were first discovered, the largest tentacles of these spear squid were only more than one meter long, and now they are generally more than two meters long, and a few even grow to more than three meters.

Qin Shiou thought, will one day, these spear squid all become king squid?

If that's the case, it's overbearing, five hundred spear squid, each tentacle is twenty or thirty meters long, that is, it can fight when it encounters a battleship.

When the sea god consciousness returned to the fishing grounds, Qin Shiou first encountered a group of hard-headed trout, which had just returned from swimming in the river. Like salmon, this fish grows in the river and grows in the sea, migrates down the river every autumn to mate and spawn, and then returns to the sea before winter.

The ocean is much warmer than the river in winter, which is more suitable for these fish to survive.

Seeing a large group of small hard-headed trout following behind, Qin Shiou sprinkled some Seagod consciousness and called for two sea pythons to come over to provide protection.

If left unprotected, these little trout are the food of the big cod and bluefin tuna, and they will be eaten up for you in a few days.

When he arrived near the coral reef, Qin Shiou was followed by some small hard-headed trout, which roamed happily.

Some aquatic weed-like creatures more than half a meter long fell vertically from the upper layer of the sea, Qin Shiou didn't pay attention to it, but he found that the heads of these creatures were actually changing color, turning into a reddish-brown color similar to that of a small hardhead trout.

Chameleon in the sea? Qin Shiou became curious.

These aquatic weeds floated into the school of small trout, and then a predation began, and these 'aquatic weeds' suddenly began to writhe, and their heads, which were about the same size as the small trout, opened and swallowed the small fish around them into their mouths.

This is the trumpet fish, right? Qin Shiou guessed their identity when he saw their predatory methods, and the trumpet fish has a slender body and likes to survive in the coral reef area. It then disguises itself as coral or seagrass to hunt.

Qin Shiou did not drive away the trumpet fish, which is a normal chain of marine life. Later, when they arrived in the offshore waters, a group of molluscs similar to loaches appeared on the bottom of the sea, and Qin Shiou thought they were American eels and ignored them.

He turned around and found that there was no problem, so he continued to follow the Black Overlord to play in the deep sea.

The next day, Little Black found Qin Shiou to discuss the handling of Van Gogh's paintings, the auction was certain, but now there is no good opportunity, almost mid-November, the autumn auctions of the large-scale auction have ended.

"Then wait for next year's spring auction." Qin Shiou was not in a hurry to use the money, "Doesn't your Ritchie Auction House have a spring auction in April?" ”

Little Black and Billy thought it would be better, so they smiled and agreed, and Little Black then left with the painting, and although it was still a long time before the spring auction, it was time to carry out the publicity work. 、

The more you advertise, the higher the price, and that's right. (To be continued......)
