Just when everyone was surprised or determined, George looked at Enrique meaningfully.

Alas, the old man is doing that again.

Taking over this Stradivari 1718 from Enrique, Xia Yu inexplicably had a sense of familiarity, like an old fellow who had not seen him for a long time.

Is this a delusion?

It was an illusion, but when his bow landed on the strings and he played the first note, he knew that the instrument belonged to him.

The same Bach Cello Suite No. 1, but with a completely different feel, a beautiful melody that spans hundreds of years and endures.

Produced in 1718 and written between 1717 and 1723, Bach's cello suite is accompanied by the best music, and has a magical power that touches the soul under the interpretation of the luthier.

Everyone couldn't help but close their eyes and feel this moment with their hearts.

Pulling the strings, Xia Yu's consciousness drifted far away, as if he saw the sunset, saw the waves, and saw the beauty that had not changed for hundreds of years.

At the end of the song, the consciousness returns to the body, and the person and the piano reach a soul match.

"Hum~~"

The phone in his trouser pocket vibrated a little.

Xia Yu rarely chose the projection mode and turned on the system.

"Ding, the host has an epiphany during the performance, and randomly gets a violin playing buff, and then the experience accumulated by the host when playing violin instruments will be increased by 50 times. ”

"Ding, the host obtains the Masterwork Stradivari 1718, and when playing Baroque music with this violin, it will automatically gain a pleasant +3 effect. ”

Is it so powerful?

Xia Yu was very surprised, because he played the Montagnana 1740 just now and nothing triggered, it seemed that this was really the piano he was looking for.

"Mr. Enrique, I want this instrument!"

Xia Yu stood up and said solemnly.

"Then it's yours!"

Enrique said with a smile.

Is it expensive to buy a Stradivari cello for 3.5 million euros?

The answer is that it is not expensive at all, and it is super super profitable, and the famous Chinese cellist Yo-Yo Ma uses a Stradivari 1712 cello named Davidoff.

It is rumored that this piano sold for millions of dollars at auction in 1987, but that was more than 30 years ago, and now it may have exceeded 10 million.

So why does Enrique only need 3.5 million euros?

This is probably because his time is running out.

Enrique has played most of his life and collected antique violins for most of his life until they reach their current scale, but he is too old to play the violin, so he can only watch these precious violins lying in the glass display case.

He wanted to spend the last part of his life delivering these violins to the most suitable people.

Enrique didn't like money very much, because he couldn't take it to the grave no matter how much he wanted, so he wouldn't sell it to the rich who didn't know music at a high price, and become a toy in their hands that they could show off to their friends.

There is also a museum, a musical instrument can only be alive if it is played by someone who is worthy of it, and Xia Yu is worthy of this Stradivari 1718.

Even if he didn't have 3.5 million euros, Enrique would still sell him the piano, but Xia Yu felt that every penny he spent was worth it.

Really, buying this piano is even happier than buying a century-old cow yesterday.

"Thank you, Mr. Enrique. ”

Signing the check, Xia Yu once again expressed his gratitude.

"If you want to thank me, take some time to hone your piano skills, and let me, a bad old man, hear your concert before I go into the coffin. ”

Enrique's mouth was as unforgiving as ever, and he cursed himself so hard that he was so ruthless.

"Yes, you'll see that day. ”

Xia Yu assured with a straight face.

Whether it was the expectations of the old man in front of him, or his wishes, he would do so.

At noon, Enrique stayed with everyone for dinner, and in the afternoon he was going to take a nap, and everyone said goodbye to him, and sent George back to his studio, and the three of them went back to Maria's house.

"It's incredible today, Sherlock that you got a Stradivari cello, I never dreamed I'd get one. ”

Park the car and say with emotion before getting out of the car.

First, she couldn't afford it, but she felt that she didn't deserve it.

Maybe she won't dare to have any extravagant hopes when she becomes the principal violin of the orchestra!

"Maria, don't be presumptuous, when you become principal violinist, I am willing to buy another Stradivarius and lend it to you, and then we can perform on the same stage. ”

Xia Yu said generously.

This is common in classical music circles, not all musicians have a wealthy background, they can't afford to buy the best works of those masters.

But the music-loving wealthy are generous, and they will buy the historical pianos that cost millions or tens of millions of dollars, and sell the rights to use them to the musicians they admire.

Yo-Yo Ma is like this, and so is Xia Yu and Maria now.

Of course, all this is only if Maria can keep up with him and become a violinist on her own.

"Really? Sherlock!"

In Maria's excited voice, Xia Yu felt that a person rushed into his arms and offered a kiss.

Ji Yang, who was sitting in the back seat of the car and hadn't had time to get out of the car, felt that he was a little redundant, but are these musicians so hot?

"You don't have to do that, Mary. ”

Xia Yu said with a wry smile.

I thought silently in my heart, senior sister, I didn't mean it, who knew that Miss Yi was so daring to love and hate, so she hugged him and kissed him when she came up.

"Sherlock, I won't let you down. ”

With that, Mary got out of the car.

This is probably the so-called high and low music, and it is difficult to find bosom friends?

There is no emotional factor between Xia Yu and Maria, but from the time they met on the train, Xia Yu could understand her piano sound, and she could also understand Xia Yu, and they met again directly at the concert until today's Cremona.

It can be said that Xia Yu is Maria's bosom friend, and this is also a very pure feeling.

But don't say it, it felt pretty sweet just now.

Xia Yu also got out of the car in the aftertaste.

It was early in the afternoon when Arthur and Martina came back by car.

The little monkey went out to play with the friends in the village, and his sister Martina began to practice the piano seriously.

Xia Yu didn't miss a good opportunity, took out his 1718 from the piano case, and practiced together, after all, starting from today, the next week will have a 50-fold experience bonus.

Special Buffs can't be renewed, and can only be randomly popped, so he has to cherish this rare opportunity.

Not to be outdone, Maria took out her own piano and joined the practice, leaving only Ji Yang who felt so embarrassed and could order the piano, but none of the three of them could play.

In the evening, the two stayed at Maria's house for another night, and the next morning, they finally had to say goodbye.

As for the next meeting, Xia Yu hopes to be in Vienna, next door to the Mozart Hall they know, the world-famous Golden Hall.

"I gave this piano to Martina, so that I could use it as a practice piano for her before going to university. ”

Before getting into the car, Xia Yu handed over his practice piano to Maria.

He already has his own instrument, and this practice instrument should be reserved for those who need it more.

After Maria's mother and daughter excused themselves, they still couldn't resist Xia Yu, so they could only accept it with gratitude.

Getting into the car sent by Accor, Xia Yu stretched out his hand out of the window, said a final goodbye to Maria's family, and then drove to the country of Fu.

Today is April 10th, the auction is on the 14th, Xia Yu and they are going to go to the country first, send 4 Bugatti back to the original factory for vehicle maintenance, and then rush to Geneva a day or two in advance to visit the auto show, and then participate in the auction, and then on the 15th, they will meet with the Jizaki team who ended the inspection, and return to China together by plane.

In this way, Xia Yu's half-month trip to Europe officially ended.

So far, everything has gone smoothly, and I can look forward to it in the next few days.

"Hum~~"

On the way to the country next door, Xia Yu's mobile phone suddenly vibrate.

"Dear host, your level has been successfully raised to Lv14!"

Finally Lv14, Xia Yu let out a long sigh of relief.

It should be Enrique's family who went to the bank to exchange checks, and with this expense, he successfully advanced to Lv14.

This is also the reason why Xia Yu doesn't like to use checks, if the other party doesn't cash it in time, the consumption can't be recorded in the system, and the experience points can't be sent, in case of an upgrade, it will be very troublesome.

There's no way to trouble, not everyone has a POS machine, and even if there is, it's not enough.

Xia Yu Universe's cooperative black card is only 10 million RMB, and the genuine card is still being produced after he signed the authorization contract, and it is agreed to be delivered in the country, that is, these two days.

When you participate in the auction, you can swipe it, but the charge card does not provide installment services, and the bill is issued on the bill day, and the repayment date must be repaid, and it cannot be delayed like a credit card.

Well, as long as he doesn't buy airplanes and cannons, Xia Yu generally doesn't need installments, and he can just transfer money directly from his account when the time comes.

Thinking so, he clicked on the sign-in.

"Ding, your foreign currency account has received 387,096.77 euros. ”

Less than 390,000 euros, a simple conversion, Xia Yu's check-in salary after the upgrade has risen to 3 million per day, which is in line with the previous law of change.

So the experience value of upgrading Lv15 has also risen to 300 million?

Click on the "Me" interface and pull to the XP column.

Well, it's really 300 million, Xia Yu feels a little difficult to top.

It took him almost 3 months to spend the 100 million last time, and the 300 million this time will take more than half a year to spend it.

His current sign-in salary is 3 million a day, that is, he can sign 300 million in 100 days, less than half a year, but it is more difficult for him to spend money now than to save money, which is embarrassing.

Exiting the system, Xia Yu opened the calculator again and calculated how much money was left in his hand.

Well, 12.159 million euros + 8 million US dollars + 10 million RMB quota for the Centurion black card.

I don't know how much the initial amount of the new black card is, but it shouldn't be lower than the domestic one!
