There are also three works by Peter Paul Ruben, a famous Flemish painter in the Netherlands in the 17th century and an early representative of the Baroque school of painting!
A total of thirteen masterpieces were previously collected by the famous Isabella Stewart Gardner Art Museum in Boston. However, they were stolen by two thieves on March 17, 1990 and have been missing ever since.
Yang Jing never thought that the thirteen stolen famous paintings would appear in this inconspicuous warehouse. As a result, he spent two thousand dollars to get these thirteen famous paintings.
Although these thirteen paintings were stolen items, they were obtained by Yang Jing in good faith through a warehouse auction, so legally speaking, these thirteen paintings belonged to Yang Jing. However, because these thirteen paintings were too valuable, the US government prohibited them from leaving the country.
Because of this ban, Yang Jing's luggage would be checked every time he left the United States. The U.S. government was afraid that Yang Jing would take the thirteen paintings out of the United States.
But this was not difficult for Yang Jing. The storage space of the holy ring was quite magical. Not to mention the thirteen paintings, if Yang Jing was happy, he could even take away the presidential table in the White House without anyone noticing...
Yang Jing was not bragging. The White House had an open day, and Yang Jing could dress up as a tourist to visit the White House. He just needed to figure out the coordinates of the Oval Office where the president worked daily, and then shuttle through it at night, and then directly put the desk used by the president of the United States into the storage space, and then shuttle back.
Absolutely without anyone noticing!
But if Yang Jing dared to do that, it would immediately become the most mysterious event in the world...
The most important thing is, why the hell do I need that broken table? I don't dare to take it out for exhibition. It takes up space and wastes energy. So, forget about that stupid thing!
Let’s get back to the topic.
Although these thirteen masterpieces were taken out of the United States by Yang Jing, if related issues were not properly resolved and certain links were not opened up, these thirteen masterpieces would be destined to not be exhibited in the Grand Canal Museum.
But this is not a problem for Yang Jing. Before he is ready to take over the Evil Dragon Fund, Yang Jing will donate these thirteen famous paintings to a private museum acquired by the KY Investment Fund. Then, after he takes over the Evil Dragon Fund, he will bring out these thirteen famous paintings through the exchange of cultural relics.
By then, I will do this openly in the name of the boss of KY Investment Fund. I am afraid that even the Twitter president will not dare to say anything!
What do you dare to say? I just don't like you. This is just an excuse for me to get rid of you and replace you with an obedient American leader...
Next to these thirteen famous paintings are some peculiarly shaped porcelains. Yang Jing traveled back to July 10, 1982, and bought these porcelains from a man whose tongue was missing for two hundred yuan at the Chaotian Palace Ghost Market.
These eleven pieces of revived Kutani ware were made by the Japanese porcelain master Abe Aoi. If they were put in Japan, they would definitely cause a sensation. Even if they were exhibited in their own museum, if the Japanese heard that there were so many Kutani ware made by Master Abe Aoi, they would definitely flock to it.
That time when I accidentally traveled to Jinling in the summer of 1982, the biggest gain was not the eleven items that revived Jiugu, but a painting, a peerless painting that can definitely be called a national treasure even in China!
The painting was hidden in the scroll of another painting. If Yang Jing did not have the identification skills, he would not have been able to find the legendary painting.
Yang Jing really didn't expect that a man named Zhao Zheng whom he met by chance at the Chaotian Palace ghost market in that time and space actually had an ancient painting that was more than 900 years old preserved in his home, which was a hand-painted painting by Zhao Lingrang, a famous artist from the Northern Song Dynasty.
However, although the painting of "Jiangning River" by Zhao Lingrang was not very good, there was another secret in the scroll of this painting. One scroll contained a handwritten letter by Zhao Lingrang and the imperial gourd seal among the seven seals of Xuanhe of Song Huizong Zhao Ji. This handwritten letter and the imperial gourd seal were enough to prove the true identity of the painting hidden in the other scroll.
That painting is "Along the River During the Qingming Festival", which has been lost for nearly a thousand years!
In order to prove that this painting was an authentic work of Zhang Zeduan, Yang Jing took the opportunity of his apprenticeship to have four masters jointly authenticate the painting. Combined with the evidence of the letter and the imperial gourd seal, the painting is now recognized as an authentic work of Zhang Zeduan!
Later, the painting was kept by the second master for a while, but in the end, the second master Xiao Lao simply returned the painting to Yang Jing. There was no other way. After the masters in the circle jointly appraised the painting and unanimously determined that the painting was the real "Along the River During the Qingming Festival", someone really came to look for it.
Although Mr. Xiao was able to withstand the pressure, he was old after all, and could not stand those people coming to his door every day, so the painting was kept with him for a few months. He could not stand this kind of harassment anymore and simply returned the painting to Yang Jing.
