Chapter 255
5 minutes have passed...!
Orlando found that his forehead and palms began to sweat, and his heartbeat became faster and faster.

Does he really know this painting?

Is this impossible?
There is no signature on this portrait of the Virgin at all, and I bought it from a private auction I participated in. There is no information on it online.

Moreover, this painting was a gift from Raphael to his lover. Many people do not know the existence of this painting.

You must know that Raphael was a romantic talent. He died at the age of 37 due to excessive indulgence. It is rumored that he left many paintings for his many lovers.

But very few have been handed down. At least Orlando himself only knows of two pairs, and the one he collects is one of them.

7 minutes have passed...!
Orlando's heart was broken. If Chu Yunfeng really chose this painting, would he really be willing to give it to him?
If he didn't give it to him, would he still be the great father in Bell's eyes?
Okay, okay, now that the words have been said, if he chooses, give it to him!
Orlando made up his mind that as long as Chu Yunfeng opened his mouth, he would give this painting to him, and he would definitely keep his promise.

After waiting for such a long time, Chu Yunfeng finally spoke: "Well, not bad, not bad. Raphael's works are rare to see."

really!

He knows Raphael! !
He recognized this painting! ! !
Orlando felt a sense of loss in his heart, feeling as if he had fallen from heaven to hell.

Seeing that my favorite collection is about to leave me, I feel empty in my heart, and I am about to say that I will give it to you.

But Chu Yunfeng's next words brought Orlando back to heaven from hell.

"The painting is good, but I prefer Chinese painting." Chu Yunfeng moved his steps lightly and came to the next painting with a calm expression.

What?He actually doesn't want it?
Prefer Chinese painting?

Don’t you know that after choosing this painting, you can change it to at least dozens, or even hundreds, of Chinese paintings?
Although Orlando was ecstatic, he could not understand Chu Yunfeng's decision. If it were him, he would not be able to give up such a temptation.

"Mr. Chu, don't you know the value of this painting?" Orlando really wanted to know what Chu Yunfeng was thinking. If he really knew the value of the painting, why would he give up?
"You should know, Raphael, one of the three masters of the Renaissance, has a painting worth at least hundreds of millions." Chu Yunfeng said as if nothing happened while admiring the other paintings.

Hundreds of millions?

Mu Qing was instantly shocked!

I didn't see anything strange about this painting. There was no signature or special mark on it. Who would have thought that this painting would be worth hundreds of millions?
Mu Qing translated Chu Yunfeng's original words to Orlando, and when she saw Orlando, she was petrified.

After 2 minutes of petrification, Orlando released the "seal". He swallowed and said, "Dear Mr. Chu, since you know the value of this painting, why don't you want it? Just because you don't like it?"

Chu Yunfeng was silent for a while and then said: "There is an old Chinese saying that a gentleman does not take away what others like.

I just noticed that you were nervous when I was looking at this painting, so I knew you must really like this painting.

So even though I know its value, I won't take it away because it has an owner who loves it very much. "

Chu Yunfeng's words were so upright and upright that Mu Qing even doubted that Chu Yunfeng's character was really that noble.
The real situation is actually this...

When Chu Yunfeng saw the painting of the Madonna, the system's voice rang: "This painting is a work by Raphael and is worth hundreds of millions. The host can consider acquiring it."

Therefore, Chu Yunfeng only knew the origin and value of this painting after being prompted by the system. Otherwise, like Mu Qing, he would definitely not know the true value of a painting without any special markings.

As for a gentleman not taking what others like, this is completely nonsense, because the system told Chu Yunfeng that there is also a painting with very high artistic taste and value.

Moreover, it was an ancient Chinese painting, and he told himself the specific location of the painting, but it was randomly discarded there?
It doesn't look like Orlando knows its value, and that's where the questions arise.

What if he took this work by Raphael, Orlando's favorite, and then took the Chinese painting whose value he didn't know.

If he finds out that the Chinese painting is actually very valuable in the future, Orlando will probably go crazy.

But if he didn't take away what he loved, but inadvertently took something he didn't care about, then he would be more moved.

Even if he knew the value of that Chinese painting in the future, he probably wouldn't care too much about it. After all, he didn't take it seriously before, and he would only think it was his luck if he took it away.

That's why Chu Yunfeng said the "nonsense" before.

I didn’t expect that the system was so powerful that it could even check such a secret painting in advance?
Do you want to try treasure hunting in the wild?Maybe there will be different receipts?But I guess this cheater won’t agree.

Now that I want to revive Sichuan cuisine, it is indispensable to hang some ancient calligraphy and paintings in the store.

Whether it is Fuchun Tea House, which promotes Huaiyang cuisine, or Zhengxingyuan and Rongyuan, which develop Sichuan cuisine step by step.

They all have one thing in common, that is, the stores are covered with calligraphy and paintings by ancient famous artists, allowing people who come to taste the food to appreciate the art and taste the food at the same time.

This is the proper style for promoting and taking the high-end route.

So Chu Yunfeng also had the idea of ​​collecting some ancient paintings by famous artists to decorate his shop, which would also be of great help to the promotion of Sichuan cuisine.

"Dear Mr. Chu, come on, please take a look at some of my collection of Chinese calligraphy and paintings. I hope you like them."

After Orlando understood Chu Yunfeng's "good intentions", he immediately took Chu Yunfeng to a corner very actively.

There are a few boxes scattered here and there, and there are a few antique vases and some miscellaneous curios on the wall shelves.

It seems that the Chinese collection in Orlando is very small, just such a small corner.

But Chu Yunfeng didn't dare to look down upon it, because the painting the system mentioned was among them. When Orlando opened the four boxes, there were less than 10 calligraphy and paintings in total.

That's all, so why doesn't Orlando know their value?

"Dear Mr. Chu, if it weren't for your arrival, I would have almost forgotten their existence. My father bought them from an army officer.

My father told me that the officer was in a lawsuit and needed money, so he sold some of his things to him, including these Chinese calligraphy and paintings.

I've only seen it once in so many years, I hope you can find something you like...! "

Orlando said this very sincerely, which made Chu Yunfeng understand why the pearl was covered in dust...!
