Sofia took Yang Fann to play around Paris for a long time, let Yang Fann have a complete addiction to travel.    

    

What impressed Yang Fann the most was the famous Louvre.    

    

The world-famous art palace was built at the end of the twelfth century for defensive purposes and was gradually expanded and refurbished until it became a magnificent palace. From the sixteenth century, Francois I began a large-scale collection of various works of art, and later emperors continued this tradition, enriching the Louvre's collection.    

    

The museum now has 400 thousand pieces of art, including sculptures, paintings, arts and crafts, and seven categories, including ancient East, ancient Egypt and ancient Greece and Rome. In 1981, the French government carried out a massive renovation of this beautiful building. Since then, the Louvre has become a professional museum. It is worth mentioning that there is a transparent pyramid at the entrance of the Louvre, which was designed by the famous American Chinese architect Pei Yuming.    

    

The Louvre has become one of the three great museums in the world. Its art collection is rich and of the highest quality in the world.    

    

The three most important of these were known to the world: the Venus de Milo, Leonardo da Vinci's "Mona Lisa" and the "Goddess of Victory of Samothras." Other famous works are: "DeLili's Bath," "The Harlequin Actor," "The Coronation of Napoleon I," "The God of Freedom Guides the People," "The Girl with the Flower Ribbon.    

    

If it was just these things, Yang Fann wouldn't have been so impressed by the Louvre. Among them, a large amount of the Chinese collection was the main focus of Yang Fann's attention to the Louvre.    

    

The Louvre was the most concentrated place in France for collecting Chinese artifacts. Tens of thousands of Chinese artifacts were collected at its branch museum, including 12 thousand pieces of pottery and porcelain from past dynasties, the largest collection of Chinese ceramics in overseas museums. The Louvre also contained more than 6,000 pieces of fine porcelain from the Chinese dynasties, including pottery from primitive society, bronze ware from Shang Zhou, porcelain and more than 200 pieces of painting from Tang and Song dynasties.    

    

However, since the Louvre had collected so many Chinese artifacts, not only did it not make Yang Fann feel proud, it even made him feel extremely angry and humiliated.    

    

In 1860, the British and French allied forces savagely looted and burned the Yuanming Garden, which had forty or fifty palaces decorated with incalculable expensive furniture. There were a large number of precious treasures at home and abroad, such as brocade, felt tapestries, Shang Zhou bronzes, ceramics, lacquer ware, tooth sculptures, agate, amber, crystals, wood sculptures, gems, paintings, watches, ancient texts, and so on.    

    

It is said that about 30 thousand Chinese cultural relics in the Louvre have been sealed for a long time and have never been opened to the public.    

    

As countless tourists were wandering around the Louvre, pointing at the items in the collection and clicking their tongues in admiration, Yang Fann had the urge to use his Space of Jade Pendant to move them all away.    

    

Especially when he saw a few Chinese tourists admiring and admiring the treasures of the Louvre, even comparing the Louvre with the Palace of Yanjing, saying that the collection in the Forbidden City was too trashy, and could not compare to the Louvre at all. Yang Fann really wanted to slap them a few times, and if not for the fact that all the good things in China had been snatched away by Li Qiang, the collection in the Palace would not be able to compare to the Louvre at all.    

    

It had to be said that the reason why the Chinese still hadn't recovered the glory of his ancestors was because the education of national pride and pride was far from enough.    

    

Yang Fann was not a pure nationalist, but he couldn't stand Chinese's servile face. Someone that would even think it was good for a foreigner to fart, so he might as well not go back to his country. It was better to stay abroad, since there were plenty of people in China, so it would be easier for them to live without this group of scum.    

    

Of course, Yang Fann was not opposed to studying abroad nor to emigration. What he was not used to was the servility of some people.    

    

Some people were like great lords in the country, but when they arrived abroad, they immediately became third-class citizens with their tails between their legs. Not only did they not feel ashamed, they felt that it was only right and they felt proud.    

    

It took a lot of effort for Yang Fann to suppress the urge to take away a few items, especially when he saw Mona Lisa's smile.    

    

Wasn't there a novel that was later made into a movie called "The Da Vinci Code"? The person inside could cause trouble in the Louvre, so why couldn't he, Yang Fann?    

    

Furthermore, with the magic of Space of Jade Pendant, as long as Yang Fann put the item away, he didn't believe that it could be found out.    

    

However, after thinking about it, Yang Fann still didn't take any actions. Firstly, he would directly take away the Louvre's collection, and the people nearby would immediately become the number one suspect. Secondly, the French police might not tell them any evidence, and they might even arrest these suspects and torture them, or even use some special methods to deal with the spies.    

    

Although Yang Fann's body was deformed by the space Spirit Spring, he did not want to experience the power of the French authorities. It was because his body was too deformed that he could not be easily caught, otherwise, once the French authorities used torture on him, the secret of Yang Fann's body would immediately be exposed.    

    

Crack! Crack! Crack! A whip will heal your wounds on the second day! It would be weird if you didn't arouse suspicion!    

    

In order to prevent himself from being reduced to a mouse, Yang Fann could only pinch his nose and swallow his anger.    

    

How could Yang Fann, a civilian who wasn't even a civil servant, control such a big matter? If the relevant departments in the country were to find out about Yang Fann's thoughts, they might teach him a lesson.    

    

After visiting the Louvre, Yang Fann no longer had any thoughts of shopping in the Champs-Elysees. There were a lot of luxury goods in France, and they were relatively cheaper than those in China, so he didn't know if the Chinese was rich or not. The same kind of watch was sold for eighty thousand dollars in the Great Marketplace of Wusong City, and it could be bought in Paris for fifty thousand dollars.    

    

Although Yang Fann didn't want to go shopping, he still wanted to buy gifts from his family and friends. It would be so easy to leave the country, and if he went back empty-handed, it would be hard to explain, right?    

    

At the very least, his father, Mom, Bai Mei, and Lin Xiaoling still had to give each of them a present. This was the most basic form of etiquette, and it had nothing to do with whether one respected the foreign lands or not.
