Chapter 252 Helkisin
That is also a painting.
Even through layers of spider webs and dirt, Xu Youyou could still feel the eerie evil aura coming from it.
Lu Jingyao followed her gaze and quickly reached out to cover Xu Youyou's eyes.
"Don't look too much." Lu Jingyao said softly.
Xu Youyou nodded. Although she couldn't see clearly what the painting on the ceiling was about, her intuition told her that it was not a good thing.
She couldn't help but ask the system: "The original owner of this castle deliberately left this painting behind. Is it some special foreign witchcraft?"
The system said: [Don’t explore the unknown too much. The more you know, the more disadvantageous it may be for you. ]
"So what you mean is that I just need to know that this painting is valuable?" Xu Youyou asked.
The system gave a positive answer.
Xu Youyou didn't dare to look at the painting for too long, and as a result, she no longer liked the castle. She had originally thought of selling the valuable things inside and then having the house renovated so that she could come here for vacation in the future.
Now, she had given up on this thought and turned to Hualuo and said, "You know a lot of people. Would anyone be interested in this painting?"
Hua Lao's expression was not good. After hesitating for half a minute, he slowly nodded: "I roughly know a few buyers."
"Then I'd like to trouble you to sell this castle together with this painting. The commission is negotiable." Xu Youyou said.
Hua Ruo nodded slightly and asked, "How much do you want to sell it for?"
He asked this because he wanted to know Xu Youyou's bottom line.
Before Xu Youyou could figure it out, a line of words appeared on the system interface.
"Two hundred million euros." Xu Youyou said.
Hua Lao's eyes suddenly widened: "It's just one more painting. Why are you asking for so much? Is this painting more valuable than Van Gogh's work?"
This castle only cost two million euros, and its value increased a hundred times just by adding a painting. Hua Lu felt that Xu Youyou was too fanciful.
Xu Youyou believed in her system very much, and said firmly: "Just quote this price, and I will only accept this price."
Hua Lao psychologically estimated the price to be around 10 million Euros, but Xu Youyou is now his boss.
After leaving the castle, everyone returned to their residence in London. Hua Lao had just arrived in London this morning and had not booked a hotel at all. Naturally, she followed the two to Lu Jingyao's residence in London.
"Your house is big anyway, so what's wrong with letting me live there?" Hua Lao said confidently, feeling that he was really an expert at saving money.
Lu Jingyao was too lazy to chase him away, so he had someone arrange for him to stay in a guest room farthest away from him.
Hua Lao didn't mind. After putting down the suitcase, he started contacting the buyer for Xu Youyou.
"Is there a painting on the ceiling?" The first buyer seemed very interested when he heard this.
Hua La sent the photos she took.
Soon, the buyer asked, "How much?"
Hua Lao said, "Boss, let me tell you, it's a great bargain to buy this painting now. You get a house for free when you buy it. The location of this house is also very good, and the surrounding scenery is picturesque..."
Hua Lao had said a lot of things, but the buyer on the other side was obviously impatient and said directly: "No need to say these nonsense, just one price."
Hua Lao thought of the buyer's dark background and was afraid that asking for an exorbitant price would get him shot. Because he had taken precautions in advance, he dared to speak carefully and said tactfully, "The seller is a crazy woman. She said she won't sell it for less than 255 million euros."
What Hua Ruo didn't expect was that after hearing this, the other party immediately said, "Okay."
Hua Lao was originally thinking about how to add a few words and then reduce the price to 200 million euros to highlight his role, but he did not expect that the big brother on the other side agreed directly.
"Okay... okay... I'll contact the buyer for you now." Hua Lao said hesitantly.
For a moment, he felt that this world was so strange. Xu Youyou and the big brother opposite were really one who dared to sell and the other dared to buy. He thought it would be a very difficult struggle, but he didn't expect it to be so easy.
Xu Youyou didn't expect that Hua Lao would complete the business in just a dinner and even earn 50 million euros.
"Mr. Hua, I spoke too loudly to you before." Xu Youyou teased.
Hua Lao proudly puffed out his chest and said, "It's just a small matter. Don't worry, I am not only thrifty, but also have a wide network of contacts. There is no buyer that I can't find."
He didn't even mention that this big brother was only the first buyer he found. He even felt a little regretful in his heart. If he had not misjudged the price of the painting, it would have surely been sold at a sky-high price if it had been auctioned off.
It can be seen that the buyer was really anxious. He arrived in London the day after the transaction was confirmed.
The buyer was a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance and a white face, wearing a white robe.
Xu Youyou didn't know why, but looking at this almost standard white face, she felt a subtle dislike in her heart. She vaguely felt that this person was not as simple as he seemed.
She didn't dare to think about it any further, but took the man in the robe to examine the painting on the ceiling of the secret room.
The man in the robe paid the money very readily and asked for the transfer of the property.
Xu Youyou made a huge amount of wealth through her investment and expenditure. She made so much money that she even felt a little numb.
Coincidentally, at this moment, Qing girl suddenly called.
"I dreamed that you should go north." Qing Yatou said only this and hung up the phone.
Although Xu Youyou felt puzzled, she did not hesitate to answer Lu Jingyao's question during the rest of her trip to Europe: "Go north."
Lu Jingyao did not refuse and said, "We can see the aurora if we go north."
The itinerary was set, and after leaving London they headed for Finland.
In Finland in March, the temperature in the south is still normal, but it gets colder the further north you go.
[Dear host, you seem to have arrived at the location for picking up leaks ahead of time. Do you still need the system's prompt? If you give up the system's prompt, you can get a one-time exemption from the penalty for failing to pick up leaks. ]
Xu Youyou had just arrived in Finland and had no idea where the treasure she was going to find was. Even though what the system said was extremely tempting, she still shook her head.
"I don't have that ability." Xu Youyou said.
After the system flashed for a moment, a golden pointer appeared in the air.
Xu Youyou is now staying in a luxury house in Helsingin, which was booked in advance by Lu Jingyao. It is very close to Helsingin Cathedral, and she originally planned to go to Helsingin Cathedral in half an hour.
Xu Youyou looked at the three-day time limit that popped up on the system and grabbed Lu Jingyao's hand on the spot: "I want to just walk around and go to the church tomorrow, okay?"
