The fat man's reaction was normal. Even if it was Yang Jing, if he didn't know that there were three Picasso sketches mixed in this "National Biographical Dictionary", when these three priceless sketches appeared in front of him, his reaction would probably not be much better than the fat man's current one.
Patting the fat man with his left hand, Yang Jing said with a smile: "We don't know whether it's true or not!"
“How could this be fake?” The fat man stared at Yang Jing with his narrowed eyes, but it was a pity that this guy was too fat and had small eyes, so no matter how hard he stared, he couldn’t turn into Xiaoyanzi…
"Obviously, these three drawings have always been sandwiched in the cover of this book. I think it is very likely that they were made by old Baron William. Old Yang, you see, this book is published in 1958, which means that these three sketches were most likely put in after 1958."
The more Fatty talked, the more interested he became. In the past two years, Fatty had learned a lot about antiques and cultural relics from Yang Jing.
"According to my research, William Vardy's grandfather, Baron William the Elder, died in 1965, and Baron William the Elder seemed to have a good relationship with Picasso during his lifetime. The Vardy family also has two paintings by Picasso, which are said to have been painted by Picasso at the invitation of Baron William the Elder.
If the relationship between old Baron William and Picasso was really good, then it would not be surprising that Picasso drew three furniture sketches for old Baron William in the 1960s. After all, old Baron William invested in IKEA at that time, and investing in IKEA was the best investment made by the Vardi family in recent decades. The most important thing is that the price of Picasso's sketches fell to the lowest point in the 1960s. Although Picasso drew these three paintings for old Baron William, old Baron William did not take them seriously and stuffed them into the cover of the "National Biographical Dictionary" used to decorate his study! Then, after old Baron William passed away, it might be his son or his grandson who disliked those books and put them on the shelf. In the end, today we are lucky enough to have them!"
The fat man looked at Yang Jing and said with a smile: "Old Yang, what do you think of my analysis?"
Yang Jing smiled and gave the fat man a thumbs up and said, "Very interesting! But what's the point of analyzing this? These paintings are in our hands, and we bought them from the Vardi family in a fair and honest way. So as long as we can identify the authenticity of these three paintings, why would you care about their origins? Now what we need to do is find someone to identify these three paintings! What do you think, my Xiang'er?"
The fat man smiled awkwardly, and rarely did he lose his temper. In front of these three magical sketches, the name Xiang'er was no longer useful.
Yang Jing looked at the three paintings and suddenly had an idea in his mind. He picked up the three paintings again and gently touched the three paintings with his left little finger. The result was just as he expected. A warm current instantly flowed into his body from his little finger.
When the three paintings were discovered two days ago, the holy ring had an energy alarm. However, Yang Jing had thought of many ways to absorb the damn energy, but he still didn't know how to absorb it, which made him very frustrated.
Since these three hidden sketches could be found among more than 200 useless books, it was enough to prove that this holy ring was very magical. If the holy ring could continue to help me identify cultural relics and antiques, then it wouldn't be long before I could reach the peak of my life.
However, although the holy ring is magical, it needs the so-called energy to support it. Moreover, the holy ring does not tell Yang Jing how to absorb this energy or where to absorb it.
The Holy Ring was like a mute, saying nothing. Everything depended on Yang Jing, the so-called host, to figure it out on his own, which made Yang Jing very distressed.
Now Yang Jing finally understood what this energy was and knew how to absorb it.
Obviously, the energy needed by the holy ring must be absorbed from antiques. Only antiques that are valuable, have a history, or are carefully crafted by people have the energy needed by the holy ring.
The history of those 200 books is similar to that of these three sketches, but those books do not have this kind of energy, or they also have energy but are not recognized by the Holy Ring. After all, these books are all printed by machines and cannot be compared with the three sketches drawn by Picasso himself.
After all, these three paintings were carefully painted by Mr. Picasso back then, and they definitely reflect Picasso's hard work.
Only the energy contained in antique collectibles of certain value can be recognized and absorbed by the holy ring.
At the same time, in order to absorb energy, one must let the little finger of his left hand touch the target. It seems that the holy ring does not have the legendary ability to absorb energy through space.
That's right, whether it's Ren Woxing's Star Absorbing Technique or Xingxiu Old Immortal Ding Chunqiu's Qi Transformation Technique, they both need to come into contact with the target person before they can be implemented...
The moment the warm current flowed into the body, the transparent interface opened automatically again.
Yang Jing subconsciously looked at the fat man, and found that the fat man was indifferent. Yang Jing then felt relieved, knowing that this transparent interface should only be visible to himself, the host.
Seeing the fat man admiring the three paintings with an intoxicated look on his face, Yang Jing simply ignored him and started looking at the transparent interface.
Sure enough, when this heat flowed into his body, the interface changed a little bit. At least the warning prompt that had turned red due to insufficient energy disappeared, and the font in the system also changed from red to light green.
Obviously, the energy brought by the three sketches has fully replenished the energy in the holy ring that was about to run out. This can be seen from the change in font color.
This change made Yang Jing secretly happy for a while.
However, Yang Jing also discovered another change in the interface. That is, a mark similar to a skill tree appeared in the lower center of the interface.
On this skill tree, almost all the skill names are invisible and gray, except for one skill which has turned light green and displays its name.
The name of this skill that turned light green was "Identification". Yang Jing tried clicking it and a line of words appeared.
"The identification skill is one of the basic skills of the Holy Ring. Once the Holy Ring is bound to the host's gene, it will be automatically activated without the need for energy. After the host activates the identification skill, he can identify any item according to his own wishes. Each identification consumes a certain amount of energy, so please make sure to replenish your energy."
