Starting My Treasure Hunting In England

Chapter 382 Finding the Target and Painting

The reason why Liang En hopes to find older working tools is because he has tried all the working tools used by his parents before, but unfortunately nothing meets the requirements.

Considering that the skills he mastered were related to history, Liang En felt that the reason why those things were ineffective was probably because they were not old enough.

"An old housework tool?" The middle-aged man selling second-hand clothes showed a thoughtful expression, and soon he raised his head as if he had thought of something, and then said.

"If I remember correctly, you can turn west from the intersection in front of you. When you go all the way to the end, you will see a place selling various daily items from the Victorian era. You should have what you want there."

"Thank you!" After seeing the other party pointing the way, Liang En nodded slightly to express his gratitude, and then walked with Joan of Arc in the direction pointed by the other party.

After they reached the place they pointed to. Liang En saw a truck with a cargo compartment at the back parked at the parking spot. The back door of the cargo compartment was open, revealing the contents inside.

These items are daily necessities that appear to be old, but the overall preservation condition is very average. For example, obvious rust can be seen on the metal objects, while there are obvious defects on the wood products and porcelain.

Liang En also felt a little dizzy when facing this large amount of items. After all, unless a professional researcher is a professional researcher, it would be difficult to determine the identity of such antiques and miscellaneous items.

But when Liang En concentrated on the card [Tombak Summoning (SR)] and looked at the pile of things in the carriage, he found that one of the things was marked.

This is a palm-sized ceramic box with a lid, with beautiful flower and plant patterns painted on it. But after opening the lid, he found two small holes the size of fingertips at the bottom of the box, and there was a strange smell in the box.

"Excuse me, what is this and what's the price?" Liang En asked the middle-aged boss.

"Ah, this is a German Meissen porcelain, a soap box produced in 1865." The boss who was looking at his mobile phone just now put down his mobile phone and said.

"This should be high-end porcelain prepared for wealthy people at that time. At the same time, it is very well preserved now, so if you want it, you need to pay me 85 euros."

Obviously, the owner of this stall should be a professional antique dealer, so he can set such a high price, which happens to be the upper limit of the price of this kind of thing.

"I really want this thing, but the price you offered is a bit too high. If you lower it to 60 euros, I will be willing to buy it." Liang En immediately switched from standard English to English with an Irish accent.

He guessed that the other party most likely thought of himself as a foreign tourist and wanted to make more money. After all, there were very few foreign immigrants in Ireland, so Liang En's East Asian face was indeed easily mistaken for a tourist.

Although most stores in Europe have clearly marked prices, this kind of flea market allows bargaining, so after five minutes of bargaining, Liang En finally successfully bought this device that can be used for magic at a price of 70 euros. Skill box.

After a brief inspection and searching for information on the Internet, Liang En determined that the box should be a soap box, but as the seller said, this box was not cheap at the time, at least the middle class could afford it.

However, judging from the wear and tear of this box, the price of 70 euros is still a bit high, and a lower price of seven or eight euros would be more appropriate.

Of course, he didn't buy this thing for commercial reasons but for his own use, so Liang En himself was very satisfied with getting this thing done for less than 100 euros.

Because of luck, it only took him half an hour to find what he was looking for. Liang En suddenly had more time. Since he stayed at home for half a month, he didn't plan to go home now. And I plan to go shopping for a while.

Fortunately, this type of flea market is easy to get information about because of the large crowds. For example, there is a notice board in the center of the flea market, which is basically covered with posters.

The contents of the posters are mainly art exhibitions, plays or band performances, but most of the people in them are newcomers and not very famous, so they use this method to promote them.

"We can go take a look at this." Liang En made his choice after looking around the poster display board, "The traditional art exhibition, the exhibitors are all this year's university graduates."

To be honest, the skills Liang En acquired through cards were all traditional art methods, so at this time he would naturally be interested in other people's creations in this area.

After determining their goal, the two people quickly took a bus to a small art gallery on the edge of the city, then bought a ticket worth five pounds per person and walked in.

Sure enough, all the exhibits in the room are some relatively ancient art forms. In addition to woodblock prints and lithographs, there are also a series of contents such as the production of parchment books and traditional pottery that are now rare.

Moreover, this exhibition hall not only displays artworks, but also has some dynamic exhibitions to demonstrate to visitors how ancient art was created.

For example, a painter is painting a religious-themed oil painting on a white wall, while on the other side several artists are using various tools to make a wax model of a knight on horseback.

After arriving at the interactive area, Liang En found that there were some projects where visitors could interact with each other, such as relatively simple creative content such as pottery or sketching, so he immediately paid one pound, then picked up a paintbrush and Pad.

"Let me draw a sketch for you! You look very well dressed today." Liang En said and asked Jeanne to sit on the chair opposite him, and then started to draw.

"I feel honored by your compliment." A smile appeared on Jeanne's face after hearing Liang En's compliment, then she straightened her back and sat there with a smile on her face.

At the beginning, no one paid attention to them. After all, the threshold for painting is not high, so there are many people painting here, and Liang En and the others are inconspicuous among them.

"Eh-" When Liang En was halfway through the painting, a painter walking around in the crowd finally realized that Liang En's painting level was not at the level of an amateur, so he stood quietly behind him and watched. got up.

And his gesture attracted more people to stop and watch. Among these viewers were not only artists, but also many tourists.

After all, Liang En's sketches are the level of sketch art obtained by Nicholas Feshin through cards, and Feshen's sketches are different from many modern arts and are definitely content that can be appreciated by both refined and popular people.

Therefore, for most people, regardless of their artistic level, they can feel the beauty from these sketches, and naturally they will watch Liang En's creations.

"——What's going on?" Just when Liang En finished the last stroke and was about to take the painting off the drawing board to show it to Joan, he suddenly found that there were twenty or thirty people around him, and some people even kept talking. Taking video with mobile phone.
