Reborn as a great painter, with a system, you can be willful

Chapter 290, Get Rewards, Set Off to Europe
Rest area at the racecourse.

Jiang Zhe was listening to Mr. Ye's introduction of the store. He seemed to be listening very seriously, but in fact he was immersed in the memories of his previous life.

As far as I can remember, this shop has never been idle. Even when some physical stores were impacted by e-commerce and began to close down, this shop has always been open for business.

According to common sense, such a good shop is impossible to sell. If it weren't for the system's prompt, Jiang Zhe would not have paid any attention to Mr. Ye.

After Mr. Ye finished speaking, he saw that Jiang Zhe had no reaction for a long time, and he was also doubtful in his heart. Is the person introduced by Mr. Wu reliable? He is so young and absent-minded. Because the price he wanted was slightly high, he contacted many people in succession without success, so he had to wait patiently.

"Mr. Ye, please let me think about it. I will write you back when I'm done." Jiang Zhe said.

Mr. Ye was polite on the surface, but he had no hope in his heart.

After Jiang Zhe finished discussing the matter, he said goodbye and left.

I met Mr. Wu by chance on the way.

President Wu never asked about the two of them, but just asked Jiang Zhe to come to the gym when he was free.

In the next few days, Jiang Zhe used his connections to verify that there was no foul play or consequences, and finally bought the shop for 600 million yuan.

Because Jiang Zhe had other plans and had to keep some funds on hand, he took out a loan of 400 million.

After completing the formalities, Jiang Zhe waited until there was no one around, checked the system prompts, and confirmed that he had completed most of the steps as prompted. He only needed to wait for the buyer to come.

He went home, changed into a short-sleeved T-shirt, shorts and sandals, brought sunglasses and a cell phone, and took a car to Wang Zhen's gallery.

There are several people visiting the gallery.

Jiang Zhe saw that his six paintings had been mounted in large frames and hung in prominent positions.

He looked at it for a moment and was very satisfied with the effect of the work after it was framed.

"Mr. Jiang." The gallery staff already knew Jiang Zhe and took the initiative to greet him.

"Hello. Is Mr. Wang here?" Jiang Zhe asked.
"Mr. Wang will be back soon. Some of your classmates are in the workshop."

"Please let me know when Mr. Wang comes back." Jiang Zhe walked to the door of the workshop and saw Lan Xin, Fu Min and Mou Xing copying works.

"Jiang Zhe is here." Fu Min was the first to see Jiang Zhe.

Jiang Zhe walked into the workshop, greeted them, and looked at the three people's work. "I didn't go home to check it out."

Fu Min said: "We are not as leisurely as you think."

Mou Xing said: "I went home for a day, but I couldn't stay there, so I came back again. Making money is still more important."

"My mother heard that I could make money here, so she just sent me out." Lan Xin's personality has become much more cheerful, and she can now deal with these things calmly.

Jiang Zhe saw that she was copying Wen Tong's ink bamboo.

Several people asked Jiang Zhe what he was going to do during his vacation. Jiang Zhe did not tell them his plans, but only said that he would paint at home.

He changed the subject and talked about the school's recent exhibitions.

After chatting for a while, the staff told Jiang Zhe that Wang Zhen was back.

"You guys go ahead and do your work. I have something to talk to Manager Wang about." Jiang Zhe left the workshop and came to Wang Zhen's office.

Wang Zhen got straight to the point: "Many people have praised your series of paintings after seeing them. However, I am worried that if I take this series of paintings to the provincial capital for exhibition, will it be criticized?"

Jiang Zhe asked, "Are you worried about the subject matter?"

Wang Zhen said: "Today's painters are all expressing the new era. Are you still painting rural themes? Does it conform to the current aesthetics? Will someone say that expressing some backward phenomena is smearing?"

Jiang Zhe said, "That's not what I meant. If anyone wants to say something, let them say it. How's the matter I asked you to do?"

Wang Zhen knew that he couldn't persuade her, so he took out some materials. "If you just want to go there for a few days, I can sign you up for a tour group. But you don't want to join such a group. I asked the Times Auction Company for help and contacted a suitable team for you."

Jiang Zhe said: "I went to Europe for the purpose of studying. Not to hang out." He opened the document and looked through the contents.

Wang Zhen explained the information: "There is a Dengxing Group that has a cooperative project with a European company. They invite people here to visit and travel. You can go through the formalities with them and go to France together.

While in France, you can have some free time. Someone from the auction company will go with you. With people looking after each other, there shouldn't be any problems." Jiang Zhe wanted to go to Europe to see the original works of famous artists. As for whether to go to France or Italy first, he could only say that both were fine.

Before he asked Wang Zhen for help, he had done some research on his own. He knew that going there to learn and observe was not as easy as he had imagined. After looking at the arrangement of the Times Auction Company, he felt that this arrangement was the most appropriate.

Jiang Zhe went through the formalities under Wang Zhen's guidance.

He estimated that he would still be in Europe during the preparation period for the exhibition in the provincial capital, so he entrusted Wang Zhen to help him transport his works.

A few days later, Jiang Zhe completed the formalities, said goodbye to his family and friends, and flew to Shanghai to meet up with his teammates who were going to Europe.

A man named Chen Xi from the auction company came to pick up Jiang Zhe.

Chen Xi and Jiang Zhe went to Europe together.

There were 12 people traveling to Europe with them.

Except for Jiang Zhe and the team leader, the rest are senior, middle-level or technical backbones of Dengxing Group.

Chen Xi introduced Jiang Zhe and his companions.

We just said hello and didn't get to know each other any further.

The tour leader is Tian Zao, a middle-aged woman who often takes on the task of leading tour groups abroad.

Before boarding the plane, she repeatedly reminded us of things to pay attention to.

Jiang Zhe went through security and called home before turning off his cell phone. Then, he began to observe the people coming and going in the airport.

Although it was not convenient to take out the sketchbook at this time, it did not prevent her from observing and collecting materials.

"Jiang Zhe, what kind of work are you going to do in Europe this time?"

Jiang Zhe looked in the direction of the voice and saw a short fat man asking questions. He couldn't remember if he was the deputy factory director or some other position.

"Traveling."

"You're really lucky to have come at the right time. When I was your age, I was still studying and had never left the province. Your family must be well off to allow you to travel, right? What do your parents do?" The man seemed a bit familiar.

Jiang Zhe doesn't like people asking him questions right away.

“My parents are retired.”

The man saw that Jiang Zhe was not willing to talk, so he said a few polite words and went to talk to someone else.

He habitually made guesses about Jiang Zhe's background. Some guesses. He was young, traveling, and kept his parents' information secret. If he was not a relative of the company, then he was a relative of the auction company.

There was no conversation along the way and the group arrived at the Paris airport smoothly.

When we walked out of the airport, it was already night.

The team leader arranged a vehicle and everyone rushed to the hotel to stay.

Jiang Zhe looked at the night view through the car window.

This was the first time he had come to Paris in his previous life. He wanted to go there and see those masterpieces right now.

The hotel they stayed in was of average condition and fairly clean.

The team leader advised not to go out and wander around unless necessary.

Jiang Zhe settled down in his room and called his parents long distance to let them know he was safe.

He approached a clerk at the hotel's front desk to ask about the best way to visit the Louvre, and his French skills from the award came in handy.

After paying a tip, he received a detailed guide.

Looking at the guide, he is looking forward to tomorrow's harvest.
