Happy Tycoon

Chapter 856: The unlovable old Mike

? Rockwell's paintings are not all very valuable. At least the three paintings in front of me can't be compared with his high-priced oil paintings in terms of size and artistry.

But Yang Jing was indeed very pleasantly surprised. Yang Jing has no shortage of famous Western paintings. He even has many paintings by the world’s top masters such as Beethoven, Raphael, Cézanne, Ingres, Monet, Russborn, Rembrandt, etc., but this The three paintings really brought surprises to Yang Jing.

As mentioned earlier, there was a fire in Rockwell’s studio in 1943. As a result, all the manuscripts he saved before were burned by the fire. Even if a small part of Rockwell’s original works were rescued at that time, the quantity is extremely cherished. .

Now there are three pictures at once, which of course is a pleasant surprise.

If these three paintings are placed 20 years later, let alone 700,000, it is estimated that they will be able to be shot after adding two zeros.

Of course Yang Jing will not auction these three paintings. He is not short of money now. These three paintings can just complement the collection of the Grand Canal Museum.

Seeing the boss's satisfaction and surprise look, old Mike's task today is considered complete.

His wife Vivian is now sure that it is okay, and his body is getting better and better. People in their sixties, no matter their body or energy, are no worse than those in their 30s.

Of course old Mike knew that this was Yang Jing's handwriting, so old Mike was very grateful for it. It's just that this old man is not very good at expressing his feelings, he can only repay this kindness by constantly doing things for Yang Jing.

Although the old Mike is over 60 years old, his body and energy are still pretty good. Although he gave Yang Jing a surprise this time, Yang Jing did not intend to let the old guy go.

Who makes him look quite leisurely.

Don't say anything, add a burden!

So, on the second day after visiting the two galleries, old Mike almost cried with a sad face.

His sister, I just washed the three hundred tons of gold white, why did you get so much gold again? This pile is at least 300 tons!

Seeing old Mike's frowning face, Yang Jing smiled happily.

"Mike, there is an idiom in the ancient China that best reflects your ability now, that is to be strong when you are old, meaning that a man like you is getting stronger as he gets older. So, you can't be frightened by this little gold in front of you. , You need to continue to wash them off!"

"Cole, let's not bring such a fun? It will be deadly."

"Hey, you take a look at this batch of gold first, look carefully, and see if you can guess the origin of this batch of gold."

Hearing this, the old man's curiosity was immediately aroused. Don't look at his frown, but he was very happy in his heart. Although it is difficult to wash the gold white, with the experience of the last time, the more than 300 tons of gold is nothing to him. The most important thing is that you must be the boss's absolute confidant to do this kind of thing, and you can never do this kind of work by arresting someone casually.

Whether it is Henry or David or Amanda, they have the ability to wash the gold, but the boss has never let them intervene, and even Cesar is not qualified.

At present, only oneself is qualified to do this!

In this regard, old Mike is very grateful for the importance of the boss.

It's just that the boss's words seem to be saying that this batch of gold is tricky?

Then take a look?

Just take a look!

So old Mike took out the reading glasses again and put them on, and then strenuously grabbed a gold brick and observed it carefully.

Looking at it, old Mike's face changed. Immediately he put down the gold brick in his hand, grabbed several gold bricks of different sizes and carefully observed it again.

"Cole, is this the missing gold from the last czar in the legend?" After a long time, old Mike raised his head and asked in shock.

Yang Jing nodded, "Yes, this batch of gold is the gold of the last czar who disappeared that year, but this is only a part."

"Cole, did you really find the legendary batch of gold? One thousand six hundred tons?"

Yang Jing smiled and shook his head and said, "I found that batch of gold, but the amount is not so large, about 1,200 tons."

"Then this amount is not right! There is now clear evidence that there are 1,600 tons of gold shipped from St. Petersburg that year, but why is it missing 400 tons? Could it really be Kolchak who took the four Hundred tons were taken away, and then sank in Lake Baikal?"

Seeing the expression of old Mike's shining eyes, Yang Jing knew that the treasure hunting enthusiasm in the heart of this old guy was aroused, so Yang Jing watered it decisively.

"I don’t know exactly how much gold Kolchak took away, but I’m sure that I searched the bottom of Lake Baikal and didn’t find the gold that sank at the bottom of the lake. So even Kolchak took away. Four hundred tons of gold were taken away that year, and it is probably hidden somewhere. Without clues, that lot of gold is hard to find."

Hearing this, old Mike shook his head regretfully and sighed, then he jumped up again, "Cole, don't you say that besides these 300 tons of gold, there are 900 tons of gold in your hand. Whitewashing!"

"Yeah, that's what I meant. I think if all the 1,200 tons of gold are taken out at once, the difficulty of whitewashing will definitely increase geometrically, so I hid the lot of gold somewhere. It’s not easy to be noticed if you wash it little by little."

"Christ Jesus, forgive me" Old Mike looked unlovable.

"Come slowly, don't worry, I hope you can work for me until I'm ninety years old!" Yang Jing said this with a laugh, then turned and left here.

Yang Jing didn't need to worry about the rest. With the ability of old Mike, it would take up to two years for this batch of gold to be washed out. In order to launder the three hundred tons of gold last time, Yang Jing even asked Niam Wilson to start secretly gaining a large number of shares in Newmont Mining under the name of Black Rock Group and Vanguard Fund. Now Atlantic Capital controls the shares of Newmont Mining. It is already as high as 43. If Yang Jing is willing, he can complete the acquisition of Newmont Mining in a very short time.

It's just that Yang Jing didn't do this. Originally, Yang Jing was prepared to act in a low-key manner. Of course, he would not expose the ky investment fund or even Atlantic Capital on Newmont Mining.

With the cover of the world's second-ranked gold producer, it is relatively easy for old Mike to wash the gold this time.

Walking out of old Mike's office, Yang Jing met Henry Williams and Amanda again, and after instructing some things that should be noted, he walked back into modern time and space.

This time, Yang Jing stayed in the space-time of 1996 for a total of 16 days. Because the space-time in 1996 was still within the 30-year time-space node, according to the time flow rate of 1:8, the time-space now is nothing more than the past. Only two days.

After coming out of the bedroom, Yang Jing checked the door and found that the thread tied to the door was not broken, so Yang Jing knew that no one had been here in the past two days.

Opened the refrigerator and looked at it, he found that there were not too many vegetables and meat left in it, so he planned to go out and buy something.

The ground outside is still covered by heavy snow. Except for the cleared road, there are basically no other colors in the field except white.

The Missouri River, which was still flowing two days ago, was completely silent at this time, and the surface of the river had been completely frozen.

After putting on the down jacket, Yang Jing opened the door, and the cold wind resembling a knife rushed toward him, which immediately caused him to shiver involuntarily.

The air was very cold, and Yang Jing estimated that it would be close to minus 20 degrees at least. This temperature is rare in Montana at the end of October, which also proves the strength of this cold wave from the side.

No one came in these two days, and Yang Jing never went out, so the place still remains the same as it was two days ago.

A line of snow caves extend directly from the porch to the agricultural machinery warehouse, which was stepped on when Roy Jones went to the agricultural machinery warehouse to drive a tractor in the early morning of the second day of snow.

Yang Jing tried to step on the snow outside, but when he stepped down, the snow fell directly on his knees. And after two days of freezing, the snow at this time is far less soft than it was two days ago, and the snow at this time stepped on hard.

Yang Jing knew that if the temperature doubled and reached minus 40 degrees, the snow at that time would be completely frozen, and stepping on it would be similar to stepping on a concrete floor.

After moving to the garage door with difficulty, Yang Jing realized that he had made a big mistake, that is, not sweeping out the snow in front of the door while the snow was soft.

From the door of the house to the highway, there is at least a distance of more than 40 meters. It was easy to clean up when it first snowed, but now the snow is in a semi-frozen state. How can this be cleaned?

"Laziness kills people!" Yang Jing stood in front of the garage where the door was frozen with snow, wishing to yell!

This situation is really embarrassing, but Yang Jing's mind is turning fast. It is obviously impossible to clean the snow with a broom now, but we still have a big killer for cleaning the snow in the agricultural machinery warehouse.

Don't say anything, just do it!

Staggered to the agricultural machinery warehouse, opened the door and fiddled with it for a while, and the roar of the John Deere tractor engine sounded in the warehouse.

With this big horsepowered guy, let alone this kind of snow, even if the snow is frozen, this big guy can solve it.

Sitting in a warm and comfortable cab, this big guy has been busy in front of his house for half an hour~www.readwn.com~ The large swath of snow in front of the door was completely swept to the side, and from the door to the highway The distance of more than 40 meters was cleaned by Roy Jones driving a tractor before, but Yang Jingyi was still not finished. He drove this big guy and swept it again, completely clearing a road close to five meters wide.

I got into the BMW x5, heated up the car, and turned on the radio. As a result, there was a very familiar melody.

"Estvirgia, ountaaa, takeho, untryroads"

This song is an American country music that Yang Jing likes very much-"takeho, untryroads", translated into Chinese is "Country Road, Take Me Home".
