Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 1224 Leaving Hell

When Robert's mood stabilized a bit, Ye Tian smiled and said:

"Robert, we're leaving to hunt down those two scumbags from Chicago, that's why we're here, and this landscape painting was just a pleasant accident.

Next, there is likely to be a fierce exchange of fire in this apartment building or other nearby apartment buildings. For safety reasons, I suggest that you leave this apartment building immediately with this landscape oil painting.

During the exchange of fire between the two sides, some accidents will happen if the protection is not complete. It may be attacked by stray bullets or caught fire. It would be a pity if this oil painting of the Hudson River landscape is ruined.

One more thing, when we searched these apartment buildings just now, we found that there are many addicts, drug dealers, and gangsters here. These guys are all real scum.

Once the news that you own the top artwork is leaked, it will definitely attract the jealousy and covetousness of some scumbags, and some people will even take risks to snatch it, trying to make a fortune!

I think you should understand the truth of the crime, you live in Hell’s Kitchen, and you must know this area better than us. It’s too dangerous to leave this landscape oil painting here.”

Hearing this, Robert's face suddenly changed.

Eight to ten million dollars, such a huge windfall, when did I own it?

Not to mention owning it, even if it is a dream, I have never had such a perfect dream, the perfect one is a bit unreal!

But it is such an unreal dream, but it has come true at this time, how can we let this dream shatter in an instant and turn into a fantasy dream, absolutely not!

Robert couldn't be more clear about the environment in the area he lives in. It is no exaggeration to say that it is absolutely full of scum!

Not to mention other places, the apartment building where my family is located is full of addicts, drug dealers, and all kinds of gangsters.

Once the news that he owns a top artwork worth tens of millions of dollars is leaked, I am afraid that someone will come to visit tonight without waiting until tomorrow.

Some of them will definitely ask for a share of the pie with threatening words, and some will rely on force to snatch this top-level artwork from their own hands and make a fortune!

As for those who cry about how difficult life is, ask for generous assistance from themselves, and borrow money from themselves, there must be an endless stream, and they will definitely smash the threshold of their own homes!

Until then,

What this top-level work of art brings to myself and my family is probably not happiness, but endless troubles, and even death!

The drastic change in Robert's expression was noticed by Ye Tian.

After a short pause, he continued:

"Robert, if you want to leave with this painting, I can arrange for an escort and an NYPD officer to escort you safely to 45th Street and Tenth Avenue.

You have also seen it on TV. There are many New York police officers and FBI agents gathered there, as well as dozens or hundreds of reporters from major media in New York. It can be said that it is very safe.

Once you get there, what you do next is up to you! You can leave with this oil painting by yourself, or I arrange for my men to escort you to leave, it's up to you.

But the downside of that is that the fact that you own the landscape painting will no longer be a secret and will be known to everyone, including the people who live in the neighborhood.

Since it is impossible to continue to keep the secret, I suggest that after you go out, directly display this landscape oil painting in front of media reporters and in front of everyone, and make its existence public.

In this way, as long as this oil painting appears in the hands of anyone else without your consent, it will be illegal and shameful. This will definitely dispel the coveting hearts of many people.

Next, you need to find a suitable place to store this valuable oil painting. The major auction houses in New York must very much hope to receive your calls and provide services for you.

Once this Hudson River landscape oil painting is successfully sold, your family can move out of Hell's Kitchen and start a new life. The Upper West Side of Manhattan, not far from here, is a pretty good choice.

That's all I want to say. How to choose is up to you. You can stay in this apartment and wait for tomorrow. There is no problem in leaving here now."

Before Ye Tian finished speaking, Robert had already made a decision without any hesitation.

"Steven, I take your advice and get out of here now, out of this apartment building, with this top-notch piece of art, and put it on public display in front of the media.

Of course, this requires your help. Escort me and this landscape painting out of here to the intersection of 45th Street and Tenth Avenue not far away. I thank you in advance.

I'll be honest, I've had enough of the damn place in Hell's Kitchen, enough of living in the dumps and dreaming about moving out of here as soon as possible.

Now, the fantasy has finally become reality! After leaving here tonight, I don't want to go back to this damned place, life in this neighborhood is hopeless and disgusting!

After leaving here, I will first contact my wife to share the joy and happiness with her, and then rent a strong safe to store this landscape oil painting.

Tonight is the beginning of our new life, the sun must be very bright tomorrow! You're right, Manhattan's Upper West Side is a good bet, life must be pretty good there.

As for this apartment, this apartment building, and this block, do what you want, you better burn this damn block down and clean up some of the trash for the city! "

Robert said excitedly, his eyes were extremely bright, shining like searchlights.

"Hahaha, Robert, you made a very wise choice. Here, I wish you a new life and enjoy a better tomorrow.

I will arrange for my men and the New York police to escort you out of here, but rest assured, the lower floors of this apartment building have been searched and there is no danger.

From the entrance of this apartment building to the intersection of 45th Street, it is under the control of the New York police, and there is no danger, you can leave at ease”

Ye Tian laughed and said, giving Robert a reassurance.

Next, he quickly made arrangements for Charlie and a New York police officer to escort Robert and the Hudson River landscape oil painting out of the apartment building to the intersection of 45th Street and Tenth Avenue.

After completing the arrangements, Ye Tian left the apartment with the rest of the tactical team and two other New York police officers, and continued to search the apartment building.

As soon as he left the apartment, Evan took two steps forward and walked to Ye Tian's side, and said expectantly:

"Steven, I also have a few oil paintings and a few things that look like antiques at home. They were left by my grandfather. My family doesn't know the value of those things.

You are the top expert in the identification of antique works of art, with an extremely sharp eye, and you must be very clear about the value of those things. Can you help me find out whether those things are worth money? "

Ye Tian turned to look at the guy beside him, then smiled and said:

"No problem. When this matter is over, you can find a time to bring those things to my company. I'll help you identify them. Maybe there will be surprising discoveries!"

"Great! Steven, thank you very much. When this matter is over, I will bring those things to the Rockefeller Building to find you immediately"

Evan cheered directly, his eyes full of expectation.

While talking, they had already walked to the door of the next apartment and began to search the same old apartment.

About ten minutes later, under the escort of Charlie in full armor and a New York policeman, Robert carefully carried the oil painting of the Hudson River landscape to the intersection of 45th Street and Tenth Avenue.

At this time, the oil painting of the Hudson River landscape had been wrapped layer by layer by Robert with several sheets, very carefully, seriously, and meticulously wrapped!

When the three of them walked out of that side street, they immediately caused a commotion at the intersection of 45th Street and Tenth Avenue, which surprised everyone.

When they reached the intersection, the media reporters at the scene immediately surrounded them and asked them about the situation in that small street.

Immediately afterwards, Robert announced and publicly displayed the oil painting of the Hudson River landscape.

Following his introduction and display, the intersection of 45th Street and Tenth Avenue immediately boiled, and exclamations rang out.

"My God! This guy Steven is extremely lucky! In the process of chasing down those two Chicago scumbags, he can still find a top-level artwork worth tens of millions of dollars. It's unbelievable!"

"This guy named Robert is also very lucky. If it wasn't for Steven, he would have known that the oil painting hanging in his living room is actually a top art work worth tens of millions of dollars!

What a windfall! No need to ask, this guy will definitely move out of Hell's Kitchen, and the life of his family will undergo earth-shaking changes. It's crazy to envy! "

Amidst bursts of exclamation and emotion, many Hell's Kitchen locals who were watching the scene turned red with envy in an instant, wishing they could replace Robert!

Those local drug dealers, gangsters, and addicts standing in groups of three or four were almost crazy with jealousy, and greedy rays of light shone in everyone's eyes.

Just as everyone's eyes were focused on the landscape oil painting and they were fascinated by it, there was a sudden burst of intense gunfire in the night sky, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"bang bang bang"

The gunfire was deafening and very dense.

The direction of the gunshots was the small street west of the intersection of 45th Street and Tenth Avenue.

Needless to say, those two scumbags from the South Side of Chicago were finally discovered, and it was Steven and his gang who found them and exchanged fire with them!
