Chapter 59 Take the initiative(2/2)

Others buy paintings based on size, but Gao Yi buys paintings based on distance.

The manager was a little sluggish, and Gao Yi was a little impatient and said, "Can I sell it?"

This gallery is not big, and Henry opened this gallery not only for the sake of being arty, but also for money laundering, because art investment is an industry strongly related to money laundering.

Therefore, Gao Yi's approach was very simple. He would buy out the gallery to see how Henry's subordinates would react.

If Gao Yi is not sold, the price will be increased.

If it is sold, just pretend that Gao Yi didn't say anything.

"Want everything?"

"I want them all! My castle is very big and I need a lot of paintings, so you quote me a wholesale price. Don't fool me with your artistic value. If you are sincere, I will empty out your shop. If you are not, forget it."

The manager was a little at a loss. He looked at Henry's steward, and the steward whispered something. Then the manager apologized, walked over, and quickly explained in a low voice.

Gao Yi said unhappily: "What do you mean? You can't sell it, right? Let's go!"

The manager came over with the steward, and then the steward smiled and said, "Sir, you are very interested in art, aren't you?"

Gao Yi looked at Henry's steward, nodded and said, "What are you doing?"

The steward also spoke English. He smiled and said, "Sir, are you interested in participating in the art auction?"

"Not interested, the auction is too expensive."

"Charity Auction."

Gao Yi turned his head and said, "I'm not even interested in charity auctions."

The steward smiled and said: "It is possible to buy many works of art at a charity auction, including this painting, at a price lower than the market price."

Pointing to the painting he had just seen, the steward continued: "This painting is from the 19th century, and the painter is..."

The steward looked at the manager, who said: "Ferdinand Georg Waltermüller, a representative Austrian painter and a representative of realism, is renowned for his superb skills in light. This is his work in 1843.

The sale price is 220,000 euros."

The steward nodded, then smiled at Gao Yi and said: "But at the auction, the starting price will be 50,000 euros. If you want to invest in art, this is a rare and good opportunity."
