The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family by Adela

Chapter 5565
"What do you know?!" Jacob looked at her with disdain, then said to Charlie, "By the way, Charlie, the Calligraphy and Painting
Association will be holding an ancient calligraphy and painting exhibition in Aurous Hill soon. The standards of this calligraphy
and painting exhibition are very high. The city is very supportive of this as well, so it should be a big move for our country! We
might even invite the Central Oskia Media to cover the entire event!"
Charlie asked curiously, "It will be such a big event? Aurous Hill is not considered to be the base for calligraphy and painting, so
wouldn't it be too forceful to hold such a big event here?"
Jacob said, "It doesn't matter if Aurous Hill is not the base for calligraphy and painting. It will be fine as long as Aurous Hill can
exhibit outstanding calligraphy and painting works, so we are collecting works of famous artists from collectors throughout
Aurous Hill now. Our first step is to raise funds internally. Our president and the other vice presidents have many ancient
calligraphy and paintings in their hands, but as the second-in-command, I don't have anything on hand at all. I wonder if you can
use your connection to collect a few paintings for me? If there's really no other way, you can just borrow a few paintings, and I

will return them to you after the calligraphy and painting exhibition!"
Charlie asked curiously, "Dad, didn't you ask for Zachary's help when you went to Antique Street today? Isn't he rather capable?"
"Zachary?" Jacob curled his lips in disdain and said, "You might not know this, but that kid is a big profiteer. I don't know which
swindler he learned from a few years ago, but he peed on fake calligraphy and paintings to make them look old and even sold
them to Japanese and Korean people who came to collect antiques. In the end, he faced trouble at the embassy. If I asked him
for help, I will definitely be embarrassed and lose my reputation if he peed on a couple of paintings and gave them to me."
Charlie had never heard of this, so he asked curiously, "Zachary even did something like that? What happened next? How was it
dealt with?"
Jacob said, “Zachary is indeed quite skillful. He set up a trap for those foreigners ahead of time and sold them a batch of fake
bronze, then charged them a large sum of money to help them ship it abroad. When he went there, the foreigners thought that
they had pick up some treasures, so Zachary used this to threaten them, saying that he would surrender in the worse case so
they could all go to prison together. Those Japanese and Koreans would never dare to be imprisoned in Oskia, so they simply
chose to let the matter go."
Jacob could not help but smack his lips at this point, sigh, and say, "Pfft, if you really think about it, Zachary is indeed quite
capable. He's really good at such things."

Charlie smiled and said, “Dad, you've not seen Zachary selling ‘Mona Lisa' yet. You will definitely be shocked if you saw it."
Jacob asked curiously, "Zachary sold 'Mona Lisa'? Is this some kind of joke?"
Charlie laughed and said, "It's hearsay, but I heard that he sold an ink painting of Mona Lisa to a Frenchman for a lot of money."
"Did something like that happen?" Jacob said in surprise, "Is that foreigner a fool? Isn't Mona Lisa hanging in the Louvre?"
Charlie waved his hand and said, "The one hanging in the Louvre was plagiarized by Leonardo da Vinci, and the original painting
was painted by an Oskian painter, Market Fairise.
"What?!" Jacob was confused and asked, "Charlie, what are you talking about? How can Markel Fairise be How
related to Mona Lisa? Besides,
there's a huge age gap between him
and Leonardo da Vinci. They should be at least two hundred years apart..."
Claire, who was aside, could not help but laugh and say, "Honey, stop fooling around with Dad..."
Charlie laughed and said, "Dad, I won't tease you anymore. Hurry up and eat!"
Jacob came back to his senses and said huffily, "Charlie, you can joke with me, but don't forget what I just said."
Charlie nodded and said, "You want some calligraphy and paintings, right? Don't worry, I will make the arrangements for you.
How many do you want?"
Jacob thought for a moment and said, "Our president said that he was going to take out five sets of calligraphy and paintings, so
as the second-in-command, I will take out a little less than him. Four sets will be fine!"
Charlie nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take care of it."
