After returning to the wealthy family, I was abused by my biological parents

Chapter 1018

Tao Zhixing laughed and said, "Oh, Professor Lan spent more than three months on that painting. Right, Professor Lan?"

The last sentence directly shifted everyone's attention to Lanxiang.

Lan Xiang nodded and said calmly, "I received the documents for this European cultural tour half a year ago. The huge painting of Acala took me a full hundred days to complete, which was also the goal I set for myself at the time."

Her facial features are relatively similar to those of ethnic minorities in the northwest. She has deep eye sockets, a small and high nose bridge, and thin eyebrows. However, Chen Pingan couldn't tell whether her eyebrows had been retouched, but he thought they had been.

Looking closely at her calm eyes, Chen Pingan smiled slightly and praised: "Professor Lan, your work made me stand there and stare at it for more than ten minutes at first glance.

I originally came here with my family to watch the fun, but unexpectedly, I was the one who gained the most.

I am willing to spend 10 million to collect that work. I also ask you and President Tao not to transfer it to others during the subsequent tour.

Of course, if someone wants to buy it, I’m willing to spend more money to collect it.”

Although he said this without intending to show off, and in fact he did not have a room or space big enough to hang such a large work, other people did not hear that meaning.

How big a villa and how high a ceiling would it take to hang this?

Normally, works of this size are used for promotional purposes and are not meant to be used at home!

Mr. Chen mentioned his family. I think he is a rich second-generation from China, and his whole family came here to start a company.

Chen Pingan held up his wine glass and lowered it, clinking it with Dean Tao, then raised it to the others and took a sip.

Tao Zhixing laughed, took a sip and put down the glass.

"Mr. Chen, have you lived here with your family since you were a child?"

Chen Pingan shook his head and said, "No, I only came out in the past two years, and my family came even later than me."

Tao Zhixing was surprised and said, "Oh, that's really amazing.

I see that you are not very old. Not only did you come here alone, but you also brought your family here.

He is truly a young man with great potential! "

Edwards looked at Chen Ping'an with an awkward smile, and really wanted to laugh out loud in his heart.

His boss was not good at such polite talk, and he knew it very well. Of course, he himself was not very good at it either.

There is really no need to learn these things.

"I wonder what industries Mr. Chen's investment company generally invests in? Judging from the name, it's like a private investment company. Does it invest in the financial sector or in industrial enterprises?"

At this time, Zou Zhaoming, who followed, asked a question.

Chen Pingan replied with a smile: "It's a small company, not very well-known, and now it can only invest in some financial products."

Seeing that he obviously didn't want to talk about his company, the other curious people stopped asking.

Tao Zhixing smiled and said, "Mr. Chen doesn't seem to know much about Buddhism.

After hearing what you said just now, I think that only people who see these Buddha statues for the first time will feel such a deep touch. "

Chen Pingan nodded quickly, "I've been busy with other things in the past few years, and I really haven't been exposed to anything in this area."

Thanks to Dean Tao, otherwise he really wouldn’t know what to talk about.

I felt a little regretful. I shouldn't have been so impulsive to invite people to dinner. We had no common topics at all.

Edwards invited the entire team, and he also knew that it was impossible to invite Lanxiang alone.

"I wonder how long this exhibition tour will last, Dean Tao? The Chinese New Year is almost here."

Tao Zhixing sighed and said, "I'm really not saying anything wrong. Although the requirements from above were notified half a year ago, the itinerary will be determined based on the situation after communication here.

I guess I will most likely spend the Chinese New Year in Europe this year.

The rest of the journey will probably take at least a month to complete.”

Huang Wentao, who looked older, followed up, "There are also Germany, Italy, France and Spain, and the last stop is the UK.

Even if you stay in each place for three days, it will take more than half a month in total.

There’s definitely no chance of me going home for the New Year.”

Edwards took the time to raise his glass and invite everyone to have a drink.

Chen Pingan smiled and said, "I have a manor in the suburbs with many rooms.

And my whole family also lives on the estate, and there are other people living with us.

Dean Tao, if you don't mind, you can spare two hours tomorrow when you are not busy and go take a look.

During the Chinese New Year, I invite you to come to my manor and celebrate with my family. What do you think? "

Edwards smiled and said, “The manor is very big, you can go horseback riding, fishing, and experience European country life.

Mr. Chen’s parents and my family all live in that manor.”

Tao Zhixing's eyes lit up, but then he shook his head and said, "We might already be in Frankfurt during the Chinese New Year. It's not good to go back and forth, and cause you trouble."

Chen Pingan laughed and said, "Dean Tao, I have 14 people from China interning in my company. They can only go to my manor during the Chinese New Year.

These people come from different departments in the capital. I think if you can become friends, it will bring a lot of benefits to your calligraphy and painting academy in the future!"

Edwards looked at the expressions of Tao Zhixing and the others with a smile, thinking that his boss was fooling people again.

Hu Xianmei was the only woman in the calligraphy and painting academy. Upon hearing this, she asked curiously, "Mr. Chen, are you kidding? A civil servant from China is interning at your company?"

Chen Pingan smiled and explained: "Strictly speaking, they are people arranged by the three ministries in Beijing through some connections.

I've only been here for three months, so I'm pretty familiar with this place.

If you are interested, I will arrange for everyone to come to my manor tomorrow to discuss it?"

He guessed that Hu Xianmei must have taken advantage of the opportunity of the Calligraphy and Painting Academy to travel on public funds.

Tao Zhixing also asked, "If that's the case, there should be no problem."

It’s okay to meet someone alone and have a meal with them, but it’s hard to explain if they go to someone’s house.

Of course he would be happy if he had the opportunity to meet people from the capital!

This kind of opportunity is something you can’t even ask for!

Chen Pingan struck while the iron was hot, "Okay, I'll make some arrangements later. Tomorrow at 6pm, I'll go to the hotel with the people from China to pick you up.

Please do not make any other arrangements tomorrow afternoon."

Tao Zhixing glanced at Lanxiang and asked, "Professor Lan, what do you think?"

His action surprised Chen Pingan slightly.

Could it be that Professor Lan can influence Tao Zhixing's decision?

Lan Xiang glanced at Chen Pingan and said softly, "I have no objection. It depends on the opinions of Sister Hu and Brother Huang."

(I'll update it once I've written it. No one knows what will happen tomorrow. Yinchuan has already announced that they will conduct an air raid sirens drill tomorrow. I don't know if you have received this notice. I hope for world peace and that all the Japanese will die!)
