The old things I repaired have become fine

Chapter 367: Copper Plate, this is the Louvre, don’t rob the museum!
Talk to... to the church?!

Several big men in the dark world had expressions on their faces as if they were struck by lightning.

Especially the two werewolf chiefs, their tails subconsciously stood up high, and their hairs were stretched straight and exploded. Let us talk to the church?
What's the difference between this and asking us to put our necks under the knife?
There is still a difference. At least the vampires and werewolves can join forces to compete with the local church.

However, this level of dissatisfaction is like a novice trader who is not good at bargaining. I thought I could give him a hard blow, but he suddenly said:
"If you don't agree to my price, I'll call Bing Xixi over and I'll pay whatever price you agree on..."

This kind of bargaining is not fatal, but it is really disgusting.

The most important thing is, you know that he can really find Bing Xixi, and Bing Xixi is really willing to help him bargain...

Bing Xixi still stands on his side!
The two werewolf chiefs gurgled in their throats, rolling low, and an inch-long cold light flashed from the ends of their fingers.

Extend, retract, extend, retract, extend again, retract again...

Calm down, calm down, this guy is not an enemy at the moment, don't push him to the enemy side...

Although the price was a bit high, the other party at least showed goodwill. We can talk, we can talk...

You two from the vampire clan, please give me some more strength!

"The two blood clan members" looked at each other, feeling a little helpless.

Prince Vanzo was born into a noble family and had been dealing with all kinds of upper-class people for many years. He had seen enough about all aspects of human nature, so at this time he could still hold on a little, smiling without changing his expression.

Prince Allen of the Toredo tribe had a distorted face. He took a step forward and sighed:

“Mr. Shen, don’t be like this… Please help us once, we have a lot to give!

Take the studio in the Louvre for example. The right to use it freely is not something you can get just by asking for it. We have to spend a lot of effort to coordinate..."

Shen Le believed this. The studios of the Palace Museum were not open to any outsider to use as they wished.

To coordinate this right of use, what needs to be paid is not even money, but many more subtle resources that are not available to anyone who wants to use them...

Even unquantifiable resources, such as fame, connections, opportunities to attend certain academic conferences or win certain awards.

Moreover, these resources are not even open to outsiders. People outside the circle can't even find the door with a stepping stone...

"Then... I don't necessarily have to use the Louvre's studio." Shen Le pondered for a moment and continued to bargain calmly:
“I asked the Domestic Special Affairs Bureau to introduce me to someone, and I can just find a small studio.

If it's woodwork, you see, I don't even need any equipment, I can just take it and fix it right there!"

Why is it so difficult to make a deal with this guy...

Is he really sincere about this deal?

Or do you just want to mess things up?
Prince Allen thought quickly, then continued to smile and show his sincerity. The other party doesn't mind money and doesn't want to get involved in the conflict between us and the church. He must have something he cares about, right?

"Look, I also have some collections from China." As he talked, he took out his cell phone and handed it to the vampire who was waiting at the door of the studio.

The vampire walked away quickly. After a moment, the lights in the entire hall were brightly lit, and at the end of the hall, a huge projection lit up.

Prince Allen turned sideways and made an inviting gesture, then walked quickly in front and took Shen Le to have a look.

On the projector, Buddha heads, Buddha statues, Chinese paintings, lacquerware, woodware, jade and porcelain, a dazzling array of things, kept scrolling:

"Look, all the collections I own are on this projection. My friend, if you are willing to help us repair a few more holy objects, you can choose any of these collections!"

Shen Le stared at the huge image on the projection screen and was very moved. He had seen a similar Buddha statue in Longmen Grottoes, but the lines were not as complete as this one;

The lines, colors, patterns, and other features of that Chinese painting look like the work of Emperor Huizong of Song.

The color of the porcelain bowl, just a glance at it, can make people think of "the wind and dew of the nine provinces open the Yue kiln, and the green color of thousands of peaks is captured"...

If only we could move them back!
If only we could move them all back!

His breathing quickened for a moment, then slowly calmed down. He turned around and looked at Prince Allen with clear eyes and steady sight:

“I said I would not interfere with the balance between your side and the church’s side.

I will benefit from helping you to repair a few more holy vessels, but it will be very difficult and difficult for you to guarantee me and contact the Church's Chinese Special Affairs Bureau for me."

"..."

I see. The key point is your country’s Special Affairs Bureau, right?

As long as we communicate well with your country's Special Affairs Bureau, the rest of the things will be easy, right?

Prince Allen laughed. This time, the smile really reached his eyes:
"I understand. Mr. Shen, please rest assured that we will never embarrass you or your country.

In this case, can you please use the studio here first and slowly repair the holy artifacts? How many pieces should be repaired and to what extent, we will slowly discuss it, and we will connect with your country's special affairs bureau? "Shen Le nodded happily. That's good, in this way, his responsibility will be thrown away...

As for how many things will be repaired for the vampires, how many for the werewolves, and possibly how many for the church, that is the job of the Special Affairs Bureau.

They have many negotiation experts, so let them worry about moving a few domestic cultural relics back home. The Special Affairs Bureau will also benefit from him!

"make a deal!"

Prince Allen is indeed a blood prince who is deeply involved in the art world and has extensive connections.

When Shen Le arrived at the Louvre the next day, as soon as he arrived at the door, someone respectfully invited him in and took him through the staff passage to the restoration department.

That’s not all. He was also given a separate room as a studio, with a dedicated person to coordinate and take care of any instruments and reagents he needed.

If you want to repair it, you can. If you want to walk around the Louvre more and see more exhibits, you can do so. There are people to guide you and experts to explain. If you want to avoid tourists and enjoy yourself during closing time, you can still do so...

"You don't even want to control the Louvre, do you?"

Shen Le couldn't help but glance at the vampire who was serving as his tour guide. The vampire smiled:
"Not really. We won't directly occupy places that attract so much attention, and of course, the same goes for churches.

It’s just that our clan has some connections in the field of art, so some things are easier to handle…”

I hope that "some connections" does not mean "experts with rich experience are all vampires"...

Shen Le silently complained in his heart, but was in no hurry to repair it. He calmly walked over to give the Domestic Special Affairs Bureau enough time for negotiations.

The museum covers an area of 198 hectares and has an art collection of more than 40 pieces, which are exhibited in the five floors of the three major exhibition halls.

If you want to look at each item carefully, even if you don't go into the warehouse to see the exhibits that have not been put on display, it will take more than three to five days to finish.

Anyway, the Schengen visa is valid for 28 days. If you can’t complete the repairs by then, someone will help you extend the visa. Why bother with so many things? Just go shopping!
Fortunately, as long as you don't squeeze in the three top treasures of the museum, "Mona Lisa", "Winged Victory of Samothrace" and "Venus de Milo", and don't squeeze in those popular exhibits, the exhibition experience is still very good.

Shen Le walked over slowly, carrying a backpack and a bottle of water.

Well, the quality of the exhibits in the painting gallery is said to be the best in the world. Let's start from here. The Louvre is really rich. With such a rich family, why would they think about robbing all day long...

The painting gallery alone is divided into 35 exhibition halls with more than 2000 exhibits.

Even if Shen Le did not paint them one by one, he would still look at them one by one, and he was just short of wiping the glass with the tip of his nose.

Others look at paintings, see the brushwork, the colors, the religious stories and the evolution of art schools, but he sees more and can even feel the spiritual energy:
"So they are really masterpieces handed down from generation to generation... So many people have seen them, admired them, studied them, and thought about them. The combined thoughts should be enough to make them spiritual, right?"

The higher the artistic level and the more popular the work, the stronger its spirituality. Shen Le walked to the exhibition hall of "Mona Lisa" and as soon as he reached the door, he could see a bright spiritual light rising straight to the roof:
How could such a rich spirituality be stolen by others?
Could it be that he only has strong spirituality but has not developed any intelligence, nor is he able to consciously use his strength?

He looked at each painting intently. The small oil lamp was unusually well-behaved, hiding in his backpack without saying a word. But the paintings were noisy and kept making noises:
"what!"

"Oh!"

"So that's it!"

"What a nice view!"

"Bah, foreigners are so shameless, why do they draw so many naked people..."

Well, that's called art, art.

Although it is a question of who defines art, it may not be fair that foreigners’ paintings of these subjects are called art, but Chinese paintings of the same subjects may not be called art.

However, Shen Le will always remember what his art teacher said when he was in junior high school:

“The ancient Greek and Roman eras were the childhood of mankind. They were also the only era in which mankind could appreciate the beauty of the human body with the clear eyes of a child…”

There were too many exhibits to see, so Shen Le had no time to teach the scroll some common sense about Western art. More importantly, the copper sheet, which had been quiet all along, also became restless:

Burning, burning, burning non-stop. The copper seemed to be urging Shen Le to stop being lazy and do something quickly.

Shen Le still insisted on finishing today's exhibits, returned to the underground restoration studio, and locked himself in his own studio. He pressed the copper plate and immediately entered into meditation:

The broken bronze tripod stood still in the void, and the map unfolded majestically, immediately dragging Shen Le into a whole new world.
