"That's pretty impressive. You can't even buy a good antique piano with your budget."
"Oh? Any good recommendations?"
Xia Yu also likes antiques, but this industry is very complicated and he doesn't want to be exploited, so he has always been cautious about antiques.
But unlike most antiques which only have value for viewing and playing, antique guitars also have practical value. With his professional music buff, you can tell whether the guitar is good and worth the price just by playing it. There is no possibility of counterfeiting.
"Yes, yes, but our orchestra still has to perform in Vienna for two days..."
"I'm not in a hurry. We're planning to travel all the way to Italy in the next two days. Just contact me when you return home."
Xia Yu said and left his phone number.
"Okay, let's drink!"
The four of them continued drinking until half past ten in the evening.
Nothing happened that night. The next morning, the two of them played around Vienna again. It was not until the evening that they came to the train station with their bags.
This time they are going to take the night train to Milan, Italy, to watch a Serie A match and make two new sets of clothes.
How can you not make new clothes when you come to a fashion capital like Milan?
Xia Yu thought of a movie he had seen last year, in which the protagonist made two tactical suits in Rome. He wondered if Milan could do the same?
Before checking his ticket and entering the station, Ji Yang caught a glimpse of a shop selling local specialties and souvenirs on the corner of the street.
"Old Xia, we're about to leave Austria. Do you want to buy some souvenirs?"
"I want a souvenir, but I'm afraid I can't bring it back."
Xia Yu said, shaking his head.
There are many famous Austrian things like chocolate, Swarovski, but he wants a Glock more. However, it is not very legal, so he can only think about it. After all, thinking about it is not against the law.
"Let's go and have a look. I think you can send postcards there. I have to write one to Linlin."
Old Ji, who has a sister complex, pulled Xia Yu into the souvenir shop.
Xia Yu picked out two boxes of Mozart chocolate balls. In this kind of weather, he was not too worried about the chocolate melting. Ji Yang, who was a hottie, just took a box.
Hallstatt bath salts are also good, take two bottles when you check out.
As for the postcards, Xia Yu thought about it and took two. Both were filled with words, except that the mailing address on one was "Magic City, China" and the other was "Greater Vancouver, Canada".
Ji Yang was very slow and Xia Yu had finished writing two postcards while he had only written half of one. Xia Yu had no choice but to go outside and put the postcard into the mailbox.
But just then, he discovered that there was a gallery next to the store.
Buy two oil paintings?
Jingrui Shangbinjiang’s house is about to be renovated, and it would be nice to hang two oil paintings as decoration.
You don't need to pick something too expensive, just something that's suitable.
Thinking this, Xia Yu walked into the gallery. The person running the shop was a local middle-aged woman, who should be the proprietress. She did not take the initiative to come up and introduce the business. She only came forward to introduce some of the situation when Xia Yu asked.
"This painting was painted by a student of the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts in the last century. Because it was only signed with the name of the school, we don't know his specific identity."
After listening to the boss lady's introduction, Xia Yu thought it would be nice if the painting was done by a failed student from the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts. After all, this failed student was the one he admired most among the all-stars in the Bilibili ghost area. He might not remember to put in coins for others, but he definitely remembered this one, and he put in two at a time.
"Then please help me wrap up this one and those two."
Xia Yu didn't ask for portraits. He wanted landscapes, all of which were of Vienna.
The price is not that expensive, the three paintings together are only 500 euros, which is quite commemorative.
When I walked out of the gallery with the painting, I saw Ji Yang looking around for someone by the mailbox.
"Hey, I'm here!"
"Old Xia, why did you go there?"
Ji Yang asked when he saw Xia Yu coming over.
"I thought the oil paintings were nice, so I bought a few. Do you want to buy any?"
"No, my house is not suitable for hanging oil paintings. Let's check the tickets quickly!"
The oil painting did not match the Chinese style of Jiujiantang, and Xia Yu did not try to persuade him much. The two of them checked their tickets and entered the station together.
They didn't have to wait long on the platform before the train arrived. They got on and found their own exclusive double berth.
The conditions are still very good, but I don’t know how it compares to the sleeper berths on domestic high-speed trains. After all, Xia Yu has never sat on a sleeper berth in China.
When I return to China, I can find an opportunity to experience it. After all, there are many beautiful rivers and mountains and magnificent scenery in China.
The last time Xia Yu went on a road trip with his senior, they only traveled around Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and they didn't even leave the free shipping area. It was a pity.
