Starting My Treasure Hunting In England

Because of the reasons that had been discussed before, Liang En and the others went directly to the Royal Palace of Monaco, or to be more precise, it should be called the official residence of the Grand Duke of Monaco.

This building was first built in 1191. It was originally a fortress built by the Genoese. In its long history, it has experienced countless foreign sieges and artillery fire and still stands today.

The royal palace building is located in the old town of Monaco. Compared with the modern new town, the streets of the old town of Monaco are winding stone steps and red-roofed houses are arranged on both sides in a well-proportioned manner. They are in harmony with the rich seaside style and modern atmosphere of the new town. sharp contrast.

Soon they arrived at the Palace Square of Monaco in the old town. The Royal Palace Square is located on the top of the mountain. The Royal Palace is not large and matches the size of the country very well.

Of course, another reason is that this royal fortress was built on the basis of a fortress after all, and for a fortress, a smaller scale would make it easier to defend.

As for the palace itself, it has a beige exterior wall and three floors. There is a well-dressed guard in the watchtower. After a while, he will "patrol" back and forth in goose steps in front of the square of the building.

There is a row of ancient cannons and shot-ball-style cannonballs placed beside the west wall of the palace. Directly in front of the cannon muzzle is the endless Mediterranean Sea as blue as the sky; on the mountains not far to the right of the palace are dense buildings.

That place belongs to the new urban area, and the architectural style is different from other places. It is mainly high-rise buildings, stacked on the hillside;

From the Palace Square, you can also overlook the many yachts moored in the harbor. The yachts are large and small, one next to the other. . The light yellow palace building of Monaco, with high walls and spires, is solemn and solemn.

Soon, Liang En and the others arrived at the main entrance of the palace. Because they had been notified in advance, Liang En and the others were quickly let into the palace.

Prince Albert's butler received them, but because of their status, he did not tell Liang En that they were not allowed to take pictures or walk around as he usually did.

"Mr. Liang, Miss Dulis, you can visit this castle next." After taking them to the hall, the housekeeper called a servant next to him and said.

"This Mr. John will be your guide. Please tell him before where you want to go. He will help you communicate about coordination issues in this place."

Because Liang En was asked to paint, the royal family opened almost all the rooms in the palace to Liang En. However, because some places were private rooms, communication was necessary.

"Then let me take a look at the overall situation here first, and then choose what I want to draw." Liang En smiled and nodded to the butler and said.

So in the next few hours, Liang En and the others visited the entire palace under the guidance of the male servant named John, especially the famous scenic spots.

The 16th-century Italian-style gallery and frescoes, the golden living room of Louis XV, the throne room with a large Renaissance fireplace, the 17th-century Palatine chapel, the St. Mary tower, the marble double spiral staircase...

The density of classical cultural relics here is very high, and it can be said that it is dotted all over the place. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why the Monaco people call it the "Century-old Traditional Patron Saint".

It's just that those precious cultural relics did not inspire Liang En. After all, the inheritance he received mainly focused on his sensitivity to nature, and it was indeed difficult for these cultural landscapes to resonate with him.

Fortunately, when we helped them walk to the palace garden, there were many palm trees and tall cacti, as well as all kinds of strange flowers and plants, as well as many winding stone paths. If you go down the small stone steps, you will find some colorful small platforms.

"This place is very good." After taking a look at this small garden with a beautiful view of the whole country, Liang En finally nodded with satisfaction, and then said to John next to him.

"I plan to paint a painting here, which will take about a week. I hope you can provide me with a temporary residence, so that everything I do in the future will be more convenient."

Liang En's painting skills are indeed very fast, especially after using his extraordinary power, he can complete the painting almost instantly. It is a pity that he cannot use his extraordinary power when he needs to paint in public.

This means that he needs a little manual hand-painting, and must use more traditional paints to meet the requirements of the prince who invited him this time.

Considering that traditional oil painting is not like modern painting, it is a form of painting that takes time and needs to be divided into color layers. Therefore, no matter how fast a person draws, he or she cannot complete an oil painting in a short time.

Therefore, one week became the time for Liang En to prepare for this creation. But then again, if he really pushed himself to his limit, even hand painting would only take four or five days.

But considering that the painting this time was mainly about selling personal favors, and the other party was willing to pay 850,000 euros, he felt that it was best for him to paint for a longer time and spend more time and energy in this aspect. This can also be regarded as an additional service. Bar.

After all, if you have to paint a place like this for half an hour and rest for half an hour, it seems a bit too careless, especially when the other party is willing to pay me a very good price, so the next few days will definitely be very tiring.

Yes, such an oil painting has been quoted to 800,000 euros, and the price is still rising. In addition to the fact that Liang En has indeed mastered the essence of the paintings of those art masters, the core lies in the publicity that Mary helped him with.

However, Mary said that the price could actually be much higher. Unfortunately, Liang En painted too few paintings, resulting in too few paintings circulating on the market, so the price was far from rising.

According to Mary, it is normal for the oil paintings he draws to be 20% higher than those of people of the same level. After all, Liang En's own experience is already legendary, and this will naturally increase the price of the work.

"Mary is right. In fact, you remind me of Leonardo da Vinci." When John went to the palace to report Liang En's request to the housekeeper, Liang En and the others discussed the price of the painting, and at this time Joan of Arc said own point of view.

"Although there is a huge distance between you and Leonardo da Vinci, you are indeed similar in many ways. For example, you are both versatile, and at the same time you both have a not too low level in art."

"Thank you very much for your compliment." Liang En scratched his hair in embarrassment and said after hearing Joan comparing herself with the art master.

"Of course, I am definitely not as powerful as that master, but you have pointed out a direction for me to work hard. I think I will be quite busy in the future."

Although Liang En planned to use archeology and historical research as his homepage, he felt that he could also find some external careers now. After all, so many cards could not be left unused and wasted.

Especially as ruins are unearthed one after another, the clues about the archaeological data in another world in Liang En's memory are gradually decreasing, and they will eventually be used up one day.

Although the extraordinary power he possesses allows him to continue in this regard, considering efficiency, he feels that changing his future focus is obviously not a bad thing.
