Hello 1983

Liu Qingshan's heart gradually returned to calm, although these cultural relics were all looted back then, this kind of robbery is really infuriating.

But he knows that anger can't solve the problem, and now he needs to calm down and verify the authenticity first.

This important task fell on Lu Fang.

Although Boban is also an insider, he has yet to win Liu Qingshan's trust.

There are hundreds of antiques in the collection, and it will definitely take a certain amount of time for identification.

Mr. Dolan didn't have the patience to wait here, so he called the butler, Alang, to watch over him, and he invited Liu Qingshan to have breakfast together, although it was almost noon now.

"Mr. Dolan, please go ahead, I just happened to appreciate the collection here."

Liu Qingshan didn't want to have too much interaction with people like Dolan, so he politely declined, and worked with Lu Fang to study these antiques.

Dolan shrugged his shoulders and left straight away. Boban didn't leave either, chatting with the elderly housekeeper.

I have to say that this guy is really talented and funny, and he easily won the goodwill of the old housekeeper, and the chat was very speculative.

Moreover, the topic of Boban also intentionally or unintentionally led to this ancient manor.

"I'm afraid that this manor and castle will have to change their owners. I think back then, what an honor the Dolan family was..." The old man liked to recall the past, and the old housekeeper looked back at the past and sighed a lot.

"Is Mr. Dolan going to sell Dolan Manor?" Boban asked in a timely manner.

The old butler, A Lang, nodded sadly, with a lonely face, obviously dissatisfied with the current master, but unable to talk to outsiders.

Boban was overjoyed, and continued to say: "Mr., what is the price?"

"The price tag was 300 million francs, but the asking price was so high that it scared people away."

The old butler sighed after finishing speaking. He grew up here since he was a child, and he has deep feelings for every plant and tree here.

The current franc is slightly higher than the Huaxia currency, so 300 million francs is less than 100 million US dollars.

so cheap?

Liu Qingshan, who was looking at an ancient book, couldn't help but look over here.

In his mind, such an ancient castle manor cost at least tens of millions.

In fact, the price of the castle manor on the European side is really the price of cabbage, even in later generations.

The reason is simple, if you can afford it, you may not necessarily be able to afford it.

The cost of repairs alone is a lot of money every year, and it can’t be demolished casually. The government has already filed a record. If you make casual renovations or something, you may have to go to court.

In addition, such a large manor needs to hire people to take care of it. A large group of gardeners, cooks, housekeepers, drivers, etc., just pay salaries. After a few years, they will pay more than buying an old castle.

After listening to the old butler, A Lang, talking about it for a long time, Liu Qingshan finally figured it out. It seems that it is impossible to expect real estate appreciation.

But if I don't buy this place, I feel a little unwilling in my heart.

If you don't fight for steamed buns, you can still fight for breath, you have to get the family's ancestral property, otherwise, Liu Qingshan can't get out of his heart.

Just as he was thinking about it, the old butler began to ramble again: "Our Dolan Manor used to produce very famous wines, but it's a pity that they haven't dropped yet."

Liu Qingshan couldn't help but be moved: here, many manors are famous for producing wine, such as Lafite Manor and so on.

If this industry can be maintained, it may be self-sufficient.

And in the future, Xu Changsheng will also be engaged in desert wine, and needs experienced winemakers. It is advisable to establish some foundations here, which will also be conducive to development in the future.

By noon, Mr. Dolan was nowhere to be seen.

The old butler was not bad, he brought coffee and bread to Liu Qingshan and the others, which was considered a deal.

At the beginning, Lu Fang looked at it more carefully. It takes a long time to study an antique.

However, although these antiques are all old objects, their grades are very average, they are basically for civilian use, and their value is not high.

The only one with a slightly higher value, that is, the Buddhist scripture Liu Qingshan read just now, should be an ancient book from the Song Dynasty, also known as the Song Edition.

"Boss, these are just a bunch of junk." Lu Fang muttered dissatisfiedly.

Liu Qingshan smiled, indicating that it's okay, their original target was not these antiques, but the animal heads placed on the two pillars outside the gate.

"Let's go, go out and discuss the price with that Mr. Dolan." Liu Qingshan has already made a decision in his heart.

A group of people left the dark room and came to the living room on the first floor, but still did not see Mr. Dolan.

Looking out through the floor-to-ceiling windows, I saw a parasol propped up by the swimming pool, and Mr. Dolan was lying on the beach chair and taking a nap in the morning.

There are also four and five, who are farther away by the small river, looking like they should be fishing.

The huge brown bear was also sitting there.

When Liu Qingshan looked over, Shanxing happened to catch a fish and threw it to the big bear behind him, the picture was actually very harmonious.

The corner of Liu Qingshan's mouth couldn't help showing a smile, which further strengthened his thoughts:

Be sure to buy this Dolan Castle, and then ask your family to come and live for a period of time every year, and it will be considered a vacation.

The old butler went to the pool, woke up Mr. Dolan, went back to the living room, drank a cup of coffee, and became more refreshed.

Boban first conveyed Liu Qingshan's meaning: "Sir, Mr. Mountain doesn't like these antiques in your house."

Upon hearing this, Dolan gave up: "I have passed it down from my ancestors, and they are all from... They are all high-quality goods."

Liu Qingshan shook his head: "Mr. Dolan, you must have asked someone to appraise it a long time ago. Although these things are quite old, they are all high-end goods and not of high value."

This sentence obviously hit Dolan's weakness, he immediately put away the anger on his face, and immediately turned into a smiling face:

"Mr. Mountain, after all, they are all antiques, so they still have some value. What do you like, I will definitely give you a discounted price?"

This guy doesn't have a little aristocratic demeanor, the old housekeeper next to him shook his head: It's really not as good as one generation after another.

Liu Qingshan raised his palm and waved it: "I'm not even interested."

In fact, he was still very interested in the Buddhist scriptures published in the Song Dynasty, but the other party obviously didn't know anything, so of course Liu Qingshan would not point it out.

Dolan's complexion immediately collapsed, muttering something in his mouth, and his pair of dead fish eyes were dimmed.

Liu Qingshan changed the subject: "However, I heard that Mr. Dolan is planning to sell this manor. I think my two younger sisters really like it here. If the price is right, I'm going to think about it."

"Buy Dolan Castle, good good good good!"

Dolan jumped up from the seat at once, this one is much more valuable than those antiques!

After being excited for a while, Dolan directly quoted: "It only costs 300 million francs, and what's here is yours!"

"Mr. Mountain, this castle has a history of more than 300 years, and it also includes hundreds of acres of vineyards. Think about it, you invite your good friends to taste delicious wine in the historic castle. , that was simply wonderful."

This guy's eloquence is not bad, and he started to draw big cakes for Liu Qingshan.

Liu Qingshan listened carefully, and when the other party finished speaking, he asked with a smile: "Then Mr. Dolan, why don't you enjoy this kind of life?"

Dolan was instantly speechless when asked, and blinked vigorously a few times: "Mr. Mountain, you know, if you live a life for too long, you will get tired of it."

In fact, he prefers the sensuality and luxury in the city, but it's a pity that he doesn't have the capital to enjoy that kind of life now.

If you sell this manor, you can enjoy it for a few years.

"Okay, Mr. Dolan, can you give me an acceptable price, let's not bargain like small vendors?"

Liu Qingshan looked at the other party happily, now the other party is in a hurry, of course he is not in a hurry.

Dolan started pacing in the living room, walking faster and faster, chanting something in French, anyway, Liu Qingshan didn't understand French, but he just felt that this guy was a little nervous.

"Mr. Mountain, 300 million, everything in this manor, including those antiques, is yours!"

Dolan seemed to have made up his mind, walked up to Liu Qingshan, and waved his arms excitedly.

Liu Qingshan was also a little excited in his heart, but the surface was as calm as water.

Not to mention anything else, the sum of those antiques is worth 100 million francs.

Coupled with the two immeasurably valuable animal heads, this Dolan castle is almost as if it was picked up for nothing.

However, Liu Qingshan did not agree casually, but called Victor instead.

After some inquiries, Liu Qingshan stretched out his hand with a smile on his face: "Mr. Dolan, it's a deal. I will hire relevant personnel to make a specific transaction with you."

Purchasing such a manor involves many things, such as paying taxes and relocating personnel, which are very trivial, and Liu Qingshan doesn't have so much time.

"Okay, I'll contact my lawyer right away."

Dolan was also overjoyed, and wanted to give Liu Qingshan a hug, but Liu Qingshan quickly stretched out his hand in front of him, a handshake was enough.

Liu Qingshan emphasized again: "Including that brown bear, I think my sisters like it very much."

"Yes, of course, that guy is too clingy and has a huge belly."

Dolan couldn't be more happy to get rid of the burden, raising such a foodie, he didn't dare to abuse him too much, he was already tired of it.

Seeing that the old housekeeper, A Lang, looked lost, Liu Qingshan went up:

"Mister, if you don't mind, would you like to stay and continue to help me take care of this manor?"

A Lang's old face immediately became agitated. He looked at Liu Qingshan who was full of sincerity, and then bowed: "Sir, I am happy to serve you."

The old butler now figured it out: It seems good to have a new owner. A person who is friendly to animals should be good to people.

When the fourth and fifth children who were fishing by the river received the news, they also jumped up happily and ran over cheering.

For them, this is not just a manor, but also a proof of their own strength.

This meaning made them even more excited.

That silly big brown bear, with half a fish in its mouth, also stood up, waving two big slaps.

Does it also know that the manor has changed hands and cheer for the arrival of the new owner?

Chapter 857 Welcome Everyone

Olympia Theater in Paris.

This is one of the most famous theaters in France. In addition to performing traditional operas, it also often holds pop music concerts.

The first performance of the Heart to Heart Art Troupe in France was held here.

The auditorium below was packed to the brim. After all, this performance team has become famous in North America, so the audience is still very enthusiastic.

In the background, the actors are also busy, and the small stools after putting on makeup, they even move to the edge of the stage and look out:

"Wow, there are so many people, this concert hall is really gorgeous!"

That's right, this theater has a history of hundreds of years, and the history of Europe is longer than that of North America, so in the eyes of some old nobles in Europe, America is an upstart.

"Don't drop the chain for a while!"

Liu Qingshan's voice came from behind, the little stool quickly retracted his little head, stuck out his tongue, and prepared for the performance.

Liu Qingshan led Gao Lingfeng to take a walk as usual, to express his gratitude to the important guests present.

There were staff members from the embassy and some representatives of overseas Chinese who expressed their great kindness to the performance teams from their homeland.

There are also some celebrities in the local high society, Lord Victor, who is not ranked here at all.

These well-dressed gentlemen and ladies on the surface are still very polite to Liu Qingshan, at least on the surface.

After all, Liu Qingshan bears the name of a well-known composer and has a certain reputation all over the world.

Most importantly, he is still a millionaire.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the performance officially began. In the romantic city, the opening was naturally a dance performance with great visual impact and oriental characteristics: Avalokitesvara with Thousand Hands.

There is no language barrier in dance, so using this opening is the easiest way to get closer to the audience.

Under the brilliant lights, the girls seemed to be exuding golden light all over their bodies, and the audience in the audience were dumbfounded just by raising their hands.

That's right, this was a real shock. Most of the audience opened their mouths into a big O shape, and their eyes widened to the maximum.

They couldn't imagine that there was such a dance.

The most amazing thing is that the dancers are still some disabled people.

Comparing the two, it is even more incredible.

In the impression of most foreigners, Huaxia is synonymous with antiquity and backwardness. It is never expected that there is such a dance that shocks the soul.

The audience woke up from the shock when the girls finished their performance and held hands and bowed to the curtain call.

They all stood up and expressed their respect in their hearts with prolonged and warm applause.

This opening is absolutely perfect.
