Portable Museum

After dinner at Yang Yeming's house, Zhang Junping helped the drunk Wu Xinping back to the Earl's Manor.

In fact, sometimes, I am quite envious of Wu Xinping. Although he can't drink well, he lives a free and easy life.

After drinking a glass of wine, you get drunk and become unconscious. You don't have to worry about other things, and you don't have to worry about things like losing your morals after drinking.

Back at the Earl's Manor, Judy came over and told Zhang Junping that George Fairburn had been here, and asked Zhang Junping to come back and call him back.

Zhang Junping picked up the phone and called George Fairburn back.

George Fairburn didn't come to look for him, but Zhang Junping was also going to look for him.

"George, I'm Zhang Junping."

"Haha! Dear Zhang! You are so mean. You came to Paris and didn't come to see me."

"George, I just arrived yesterday, and today I took my elders to visit a senior living in Paris.

I was going to visit you tomorrow, but I didn't expect you to come here first. Zhang Junping explained with a smile.

"Dear Zhang, you should have noticed that the publicity about the touring exhibition of traditional Chinese arts and crafts has been launched throughout Europe."

"I see, George, you are a great businessman.

Keep your promises and I'd love doing business with people like you.

Don't worry, I will pay in full for the flat imitation oil paintings I promised before the touring exhibition begins. "Zhang Junping understood what George Fairburn meant by saying this.

Therefore, without waiting for George Fairburn to speak, he gave him an answer directly.

"Haha, dear Zhang, I definitely don't care about flat imitations.

You know, what I am concerned about is "Pastoral Scenery", when will all the [-] oil paintings you promised be finished. "

"Don't worry, "36 Pastoral Styles" will definitely be painted before the touring exhibition.

Since I have already promised you, I will naturally not hand it over to others.

Even if the other party pays more, I will not agree.

This is a matter of integrity. "Zhang Junping gave George Fairburn a reassurance.

"Haha, I believe you!

By the way, I have already contacted you for the vineyard mentioned earlier, and you can trade with the other party when you come back.

From now on, the vineyard will be yours. "George Fairburne said another thing.

Just before, when we were chatting, we talked about buying the vineyard next door.

Although the quality of the vineyards in Paris is not as good as that in Bordeaux.

But it's not bad.

Wines from good vintages are still in high demand.

"Great! Dear George, you are my lucky star!" Zhang Junping was overjoyed.

He is not short of money, and he doesn't care about the income of the vineyard.

What I care about is that this vineyard is a good prop to pretend.

When visiting friends and clients in the future, you can take the red wine produced in your own estate as a gift.

"This is my estate, the red wine I brewed by myself tastes pretty good.

A little meaning is not a respect. "

Thinking about it is exciting.

Of course, it would be even better if it was a Bordeaux vineyard.

However, he didn't have the time and energy to go to Bordeaux to wait on the vineyards.

There is a vineyard in Paris that is also very good.

The next day, accompanied by George Fairburne, Zhang Junping signed a sales contract with the other party with a lawyer.

After payment, the vineyard officially belongs to him.

Not only the vineyard, but also the wines of several years stored in the cellar of the estate.

They are the wines of last year, the year before, and the year before.

That is to say, the wines of 78, 77 and 76 respectively.

Zhang Junping recalled the good vintages of the past few decades that he had specifically checked.

In an instant, I understood why the original owner of the manor kept the wines of these three years so generously.

Both 76 and 77 had a lot of rain, which were poor years, while 78 was mediocre.

The wines of these three years not only have low yields, but also have the lowest ratings.

Why is Lafite so popular in 82?

Because the scoring of Bordeaux wine in 82 is the highest scoring year in recent years.

Not only is the wine from Chateau Lafite good, but the wines from other Bordeaux chateaus are also good.

Zhang Junping bought the vineyard and the winemaking workshop at the same time.

Zhang Junping chatted with the grape planting workers and the winemaker, and felt pretty good, so he kept them all.

According to winemakers and grape planting workers, this year is still not a good year, depending on the rain when the grapes are picked.

If there is little rain at that time, the RP score can reach more than 85, but it will not exceed [-].

A score above 95 is considered a good vintage, and a score above [-] is considered a top vintage.

85 to 89 belong to the average year, and less than 85 is a relatively poor year.

In fact, except for the impact on output, the other impacts are not significant.

The wine estate that Zhang Junping bought is mainly for the low-end market.

Lafite in 90.00 was very good, but in Europe, [-]% of the people could not afford it.

The middle and low-end wines are the main force in the market.

After taking over the vineyard simply and rudely, Zhang Junping returned to the Earl's Manor.

"I've just bought the vineyard next door and I've stored about the last three vintages in it.

I decided that the wines of these three years will be given to everyone as a welfare.

Everyone can drink whatever they want, open it up, but it cannot be used for bathing. "After Zhang Junping returned to the Earl's Manor, he announced a piece of good news.

"awesome!"

"Thank you, sir!"

"Long live sir!"

"I want to sleep with wine every day!"

The wines from the vineyard next door are still very popular, and they have a good reputation among low-end and mid-end customers.

In good years, mid-to-high-end wines will be released.

"There is a small problem, and that is that the wine is given to you for free.

However, you need to put in a little work. "

"What kind of labor does sir need us to pay?"

"Sir, what do we need to do?" A beautiful brunette shop assistant winked at Zhang Junping and asked with a smile.

"I need to merge the two manors together..."

Because of traffic considerations, the buildings in the two manors are not far apart. Standing on the third floor of the Earl's Manor Castle, you can see the buildings in the vineyard.

The two manors were separated by an iron fence. After Zhang Junping bought it, the iron fence in the middle would naturally be removed.

Considering the work efficiency of the French, Zhang Junping does not intend to find locals.

"Zhou Yan, you and the comrades from the security department and other male colleagues are responsible for removing the fence between the two manors.

Judy, get in touch and see if you want those fences.

Sell ​​them and use the money to buy food and party at night. "

"Yes!"

"Okay sir! I'll contact the waste recycling company."

"In addition, I plan to add some green plants between the two manors and build a stone road.

Girls, it is up to you to plant green plants and expand the garden.

You can arrange and transform the entire garden according to your own wishes.

In this way, when you take a walk in the garden and play in the future, don't you feel a sense of accomplishment? Zhang Junping smiled and continued to assign tasks.

"Sir, this matter is entrusted to us. We are very happy to arrange the garden according to our own wishes." Rosa and Lisa readily agreed.

"The laying of the stone road is also entrusted to Zhou Yan and you.

According to your own preferences, you discuss it, and it is up to you to decide what kind of stone road to lay.

Boys and girls, let's move!

I expect you to create a miracle. "Zhang Junping fooled everyone with provocative words.

"Oh! By the way, I just took a look at the main building over the vineyard.

It is also a castle, much bigger than the castle here.

It is enough to accommodate 100 people at the same time.

So girls, if you want to save some money on rent, I welcome you to the castle.

After the renovation is completed, Chinese girls will also move there to live. "Zhang Junping told everyone another piece of good news.

"Sir, I love you!" A hot shop assistant threw himself into Zhang Junping's arms and kissed him passionately.

"Susan, I suspect you are taking advantage of me!" Zhang Junping smiled and pushed Susan away.

"Sir, you are right! She is taking advantage of you!" Rosa said with a smile.

This shows that Zhang Junping has won the respect of the shop assistants.

Everyone's respect for him is no longer limited to the respect between the boss and the employees.

"Okay! Let's forget it this time. I'm a married man. My wife will be jealous of your behavior." Zhang Junping laughed.

"Sir, is it really possible to stay in the castle for free?"

"Of course, each of you can apply to stay in the castle for free.

However, the man cannot be brought back to the castle.

Also, you have to pay for labor, such as the sanitation inside the castle, you need to clean it yourself.

And the garden outside also needs you to clean it up. "Zhang Junping said with a smile.

Renting a house abroad is not a small expense.

Especially these shop assistants belong to the high-income group. A large part of their monthly income is used to rent houses, buy cosmetics, and buy clothes.

Saving money on renting a house means that they can buy an extra set of cosmetics or a piece of clothing.

Dress yourself up beautifully.

In fact, Zhang Junping is not at a disadvantage.

Letting them live in the castle can save the cost of hiring someone to take care of the castle.

You know, taking care of the castle is not a small expense.

It was such a happy decision, the castle is free, and they are responsible for taking care of the castle.

Win-win decision.

In the following days, the training continued, the garden was tidied up, and green plants and flowers were planted at the same time.

Zhou Yan led people to dismantle the fence and lay stone roads.

The stone road is no longer just a road connecting two manors, it turns a few turns in the garden and becomes a sightseeing road.

Zhang Junping also complied with everyone's request and installed turf lamps on both sides of the stone road.

Zhang Junping is very leisurely every day. He goes to the store to see the progress of the renovation.

Then there is the creation of oil paintings.

He wants to paint the flat imitation oil painting he promised to fulfill his promise.

There is also the creation of the "Pastoral Scenery" series of oil paintings.

This one didn't fall either.

Creating the "Pastoral Scenery" series of oil paintings is not just a bad taste.

Zhang Junping is honing his skills and integrating the painting skills of many painters to form his own creative style.

Foreign countries are very tolerant of body painting, and nude body painting will be regarded as an artistic creation.

Nude body paintings by many famous painters are very popular.

However, there is also a degree.

Nudity is acceptable, topless breasts are acceptable, it's all art.

But you can't draw the harem, especially the female harem.

Once the censors are present, it's low art.

"Pastoral Scenery" created by Zhang Junping has grasped this degree very well.

Every movement is full of room for imagination, but there is absolutely no problem of exposure.

Even, it is much more conservative than most nude art paintings.

Zhang Junping hides in the studio on the third floor every day to create.

Occasionally give pointers to Sophie Marceau.

Zhang Junping just told her some painting skills, such as how to color the color, how to better highlight the three-dimensional effect, and never restricted her to only draw in this way or in that way.

In the middle, Zhang Junping also taught Sophie Masuo the horse stance and boxing, which are the basic lessons that all his apprentices must learn.

This point, Zhang Junping is mandatory.

However, there is no need for him to force it. Sophie Marceau's enthusiasm for Chinese Kungfu is higher than that for painting.

Every day, she took the initiative to practice the Zhama step, and pestered Zhang Junping to teach her boxing.

As for Wu Xinping, he didn't need to worry about it. He went out early and returned late every day, and brought a few people in charge of the company's logistics department with him, and lived a comfortable life.

During the period, I followed Zhang Junping to a party in the Paris art circle, and had an affair.

Of course, there are two masters and apprentices, don't talk about anyone.

These days continued until Wu Xinping's visa expired.

The visas of Wu Xinping and the logistics department are tourist visas, which are different from Zhang Junping's work visas.

There is only one week left.

Zhang Junping took out his pocket and bought a souvenir for everyone as a gift, and then sent everyone to the airport.

Back at the Earl's Manor, before he had time to rest, he received another call.

The artwork he entrusted to the Ocean Shipping Group arrived at the port of Marseille.

Marseille is the largest port city in France, the second largest city in France, and the capital of Provence.

Since ancient times, Chinese goods have entered Europe through the port of Marseille, which has also made this a city where multiple cultures blend.

Ocean Shipping Group is only responsible for delivering the goods to Marseille, and Zhang Junping is responsible for the rest of the journey.

Therefore, Zhang Junping could only take Zhou Yan and other ten comrades from the security department, and drove to Marseille together.

Paris is more than 700 kilometers away from Marseille. Fortunately, the highways in France are relatively developed, and it only takes seven hours to get there.

Several people, taking turns driving, arrived in Marseille that night.

Zhang Junping took Zhou Yan and found a hotel to stay.

The next day, I came to the port and found the person in charge of the Ocean Shipping Group. With his help, I went through the customs declaration procedures.

Zhang Junping originally thought that such procedures were not simple, but he waited for five full days before completing the customs declaration.

Zhang Junping really wants to ask, those who boast that foreign countries are good, that is good, and have high efficiency in doing things, what is the efficiency of foreign countries?

What the hell, decorating a house takes at most half a month in China, but I spent more than two months in Paris.

For such a simple thing, such a simple and normal procedure, I waited for four days in a daze, and the goods were brought out on the fifth day.

Of course, facing rich people, it is really efficient.

The reason why he waited so long was because someone blatantly jumped in line.

You can't help it. Those who jump in the queue are all famous and wealthy businessmen in France.

Of course, Zhang Junping also has money, but he has no reputation, and people dare not take your money.

The people below dare to collect money, but they can't do anything, at most they won't block you at his part.

The completion of the customs declaration in five days shocked the people of the Ocean Shipping Group.

In the past, it took at least half a month for them to declare at customs.

Zhang Junping actually completed the customs declaration in five days.

In the eyes of the person in charge of the Ocean Shipping Group, this is already extremely fast.

This made Zhang Junping, who spent money, somewhat comforted.

At the very least, the money was not wasted.

At the same time, I also regretted that I didn't bring George Fairburn with me. If I brought him, I might be able to complete the customs declaration on the same day.

When they came, George Fairburn offered to come with him, but Zhang Junping didn't want to owe more favors, so he didn't agree.

If I had known earlier, I would have brought George Fairburn with me.

As for human feelings, aren't they just a few plain imitation oil paintings?

What a big deal.

Zhang Junping contacted the local freight company in Marseille, handled the entrusted transportation business, and purchased enough insurance.

In foreign countries, insurance is very important and involves all aspects of life.

Buying insurance may make your life difficult, but if you don't buy insurance, you may go bankrupt and lose everything at any time.

Therefore, Zhang Junping wisely followed the advice of the shipping company and bought expensive insurance.

Anyway, this money will be added to the selling price of the artwork in the end, and consumers will pay for it.

It took more than a day to finally transport all the artworks to the Earl's Manor and temporarily store them in the secret room underground.

Although the store has not completed the final decoration, but with this batch of artworks, the next training has a substantive goal.

Zhang Junping took the artworks and gave them contrastive training. Each artwork had a file with a basic description of the artwork.

However, lacking an artistic evaluation, what Zhang Junping has to do is to give an artistic evaluation for each piece of art.

This is also where Rosa and the others need to learn.

This is similar to the clothes they used to sell. The clothes are expensive, where is the price, is it the design, the fabric, or the style.

What Zhang Junping teaches is to use the language of art evaluation to explain the value of these artworks to customers.

This is the point of sales and communication.

As for maintaining and increasing value, it just makes customers feel more at ease when buying.

In the next period of time, Zhang Junping became busy, training the shop assistants during the day, and working overtime at night to create.

In the evening, Zhang Junping was concentrating on his creation and didn't notice anyone coming into the studio.

Until he finished painting this work, he stepped back to appreciate his own work, and stepped on something.

Then there was a scream behind him.

This scene is very familiar.
