Yang Jing is very satisfied with Mike aller's work. These precious antiques and works of art in front of her are enough to prove that Mike aller has not been slack in the past two years.

In the vault of a Swiss bank in Cayman, Yang Jing saw 16 oil paintings, all of which came from some famous painters in Europe and America, but most of them were American painters.

Among these oil paintings, there are the works of Andrew wise, the most famous painter in the United States in the last century, the works of Henry Matisse, the famous Fauvist painter as famous as Picasso, and the works of Simon UE, the main representative of France's famous palace art in the middle of the first night of the 17th century, There are also the works of Norman Rockwell, an American realist painter who has just died three years in this era, and the works of Albert bilstadt, the most famous American landscape painter in the last century

What surprised Yang Jing most was that Mike aller even bought a Picasso's work "Avignon girl".

This is a great work. The size of this "Avignon girl" is 244cm * 234 cm. It is a rare large-scale work in Picasso's works. It's just that Yang Jing knows that this work should have been collected by the Museum of modern art in New York, but I don't know why it was bought by Mike aller.

Seeing that Yang Jing was interested in the painting, Mike aller smiled and said, "this painting was in June this year. I learned that there was a special auction of Picasso in Cannes, so I rushed there and finally took the painting at the price of $12 million. This painting is also the one I spent the most money in the past two years."

"Only 12 million dollars?" Yang Jing asked in surprise.

"What's the matter? 12 million yuan is already very expensive, okay?" Mike aller said excitedly. "I took it only after bidding with many people. If you hadn't given me so much money, the painting wouldn't have come to me at all, and I still have all the procedures for auction and sale at that time."

Yang Jing raised a hand and said, "sorry, Mike, I didn't mean that. You may have misunderstood me. I'm just surprised that the painting is so cheap, only $12 million."

In 2015, a painting of Picasso's "women in Algiers (version o)" sold at Christie's auction in New York for a sky high price of $179 million, which is also the highest auction price among Picasso's life works. However, the woman of Algiers (version o) is generally recognized as inferior to the work of Avignon girls in terms of size and artistry. It's just that the work "Avignon girl" has been collected by the Museum of modern art in New York. No one knows what sky high price it will be if it is photographed.

Yang Jing looked at the painting "Avignon girl" carefully. In the lower right corner of the painting, she saw some unusual signatures - Picasso, Avignon girl, first edition.

When she found these words, Yang Jing suddenly realized it. Old Mr. Picasso painted tens of thousands of works in his life, which has a great relationship with his frequent painting several times when painting the same painting. For example, Picasso painted a total of 15 women in Algiers.

Since Picasso has this habit, it is not surprising that he painted two of the Avignon girls. The most important thing is that this painting is still the first edition, which is even more rare. Its value is even higher than the Avignon girl collected by the New York Museum of art!

But now the painting has fallen into Mike aller's hands, and the price is only $12 million, which is a bit surprising.

However, Yang Jing was relieved after thinking about it. It was only 1981, and Picasso had died less than ten years. At this time, the price of Picasso's works was far lower than that of later generations, and $12 million was an absolute huge sum in this era.

It is no exaggeration to say that in 1981, $12 million was no worse than $120 million three decades later!

"BOSS, I love it, but it's very distressing for me," Yang Jing Mike began to make complaints about when he saw the sixteen paintings there.

"Hmm? What's the matter? Can you feel distressed about spending money?" Yang Jing turned her head and asked with a smile.

"Sometimes there is too much money to spend, which is also a kind of distress. That's what I want to say." Mike arler shook his head with a bitter smile, "Boss, I have a lot of money to spend at will. This is really a kind of happiness, but similarly, you give me too much money. The goal you set for me is to spend $100 million a year, but now, two years are almost over, and I still have $70 million. I don't know where to spend..."

Yang Jing no longer appreciated those paintings, but patted Mike aller on the shoulder and said, "Mike, don't worry about these things. How much can you spend? I'm very satisfied with what you're doing now. Therefore, in the next few years, I hope you can continue to do so and strive to buy more such paintings."

"Boss, are you going to invest in art?" Mike aller thought about it for a while, and finally asked the question from the bottom of his heart.

Yang Jing smiled and said, "you can also think so. In fact, in this case, investing in art is also a very good investment project."

"Well, boss, this kind of investment is affordable for billionaires like you. I can only serve you..."

Yang Jing smiled and said, "how did you do the other thing I told you?"

"You mean what happened in Yanjing, China?"

Yang Jing nodded. After completing the London gold investment last time, when Yang Jing was ready to leave the Cayman Islands, she discussed with Mike aller and formulated a plan called "Yanjing operation". Now Yang Jing asked about the implementation of this plan.

"Things are going well there. As you said, China is in urgent need of dollars now. I went there twice and really realized the urgency."

After a pause, Mike aller continued, "as you told me, I went to Yanjing last summer. I have to say that it is really a beautiful and simple city.", "Moreover, the authorities over there really need us dollars. I just told the local government that Julong fund was going to invest US $10 million in public welfare funds to invest in the three North Shelterbelt, which immediately alerted the senior leaders. When I transferred US $10 million to the designated account, a vice premier over there even met in person I... Oh, MAIGA, this is the first time I have met such a high-level leader. I'm very excited. "

Yang Jing thought: "Can we not disturb the senior leaders? In the late 1970s and early 1980s, China's demand for foreign exchange was the most vigorous period, and that period was also the period when China's foreign exchange reserves were the least. Let alone, in 1980 last year, China's US dollar reserves were less than US $100 million. Even in 1981, China's US dollar reserves were only US $2.7 billion Dollars. I let Mike aller throw out this ten million dollars, which was definitely a great foreign exchange for China at that time. "

Mike aller was still a little excited. "When the vice premier met me, I promised to invest another $20 million, and what I want to do in Yanjing will become extremely simple."

"As you said, I bought a huge manor near a lake behind the famous imperial city. The manor is really big. I estimated that it should be more than 25000 square feet at least. Because I bought it in US dollars, I only spent 500000 US dollars. Oh, buy GA, I can't imagine that such a big manor needs so little money It's just that the manor is so dilapidated that I invested a full two million dollars to repair it. Now it's estimated that the repair of the manor has been completed. "

For Mike Aller, the courtyard, which covers an area of more than 3000 square meters, is a manor.

Hearing this, Yang Jing nodded with satisfaction.

When Yang Jing came here to invest in London gold last month, he took time to go to Yanjing and stayed in Yanjing for more than a week. In fact, he was looking for a suitable quadrangle.

Because Shengjie once said that as long as the property rights of those quadrangles in the original time and space belong to the public or foreigners, Yang Jing's purchase in the shuttle time and space will not cause the paradox of time and space, so Yang Jing chose the most famous quadrangle in the original time and space.

That set of quadrangles is located on the north edge of Houhai, just across a small road from Houhai. That set of quadrangles is the famous Hai quadrangle, which was bought by a Russian oil tycoon for 110 million National dollars in 2007. It was the most expensive quadrangle in Yanjing that year.

Even in 2017, that courtyard is the top courtyard in Yanjing. With an area of more than 3000 square meters, it is also the best among the private quadrangles within the second ring road of Yanjing. In 2017, it is said that the value of that courtyard has exceeded 1.5 billion national dollars.

Yang Jing naturally didn't want such a good yard to fall into the hands of foreigners.

Mom, why do we feel embarrassed when you go to the capital of our country and buy the best quadrangles in our capital?

Therefore, Yang Jing naturally looked at the set of haisiheyuan, which can be called the sky high price in later generations.

However, Yang Jing still doesn't intend to do it by herself. It's safest for Mike aller to do it when it involves various property rights of the original time and space.

However, Yang Jing didn't pay for this yard. Of course, this kind of pay is not worth paying for Yang Jing.

In the name of the Dragon Fund, he invested 30 million US dollars to develop the three North Shelterbelt, which is of a public welfare nature. Yang Jing knows what the environment in Yanjing will be like in future generations. Now he has made a lot of money from foreigners and gives back to his motherland. Yang Jing thinks it is still very meaningful.

There was no such ability before. Now, as a Chinese descendant, Yang Jing thinks it is necessary to repay his motherland's environmental protection cause.

The most important thing is that with this pure public welfare investment, Mike Allah will be more convenient in China.

It's killing two birds with one stone to make use of the money earned from foreigners to contribute to the environmental protection of their motherland and make their own things more convenient.

If it hadn't been for this $30 million public welfare investment, Mike aller wouldn't have wanted to buy that quadrangle in Yanjing, let alone some old things in Yanjing.

Now with this investment, Mike aller not only easily bought the quadrangle, but Yang Jing told him to buy old things at that time, which went well.

Although Yang Jing hasn't seen those old objects yet, through Mike aller's introduction, he knows that the "Yanjing action" plan is going very smoothly.

PS: bow and thank "Ziyan Tianjiao" and "chilled octave" for their reward of 100.
