Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 1309 Venus of Milo

In the blink of an eye, two hours have passed.

Ye Tian and the others have already walked out of the Michelangelo corridor and came to an atrium courtyard next to the corridor. There are also many exquisite sculptures standing here, full of artistic atmosphere!

After admiring the famous sculpture of "Fighting", Ye Tian and the others continued to walk forward and came to the "Bronze Statue of Louis XIV on Horseback" on the side of the courtyard, and began to admire this famous sculpture of a figure.

After appreciating the bronze sculpture roughly, Ye Tian began to explain it.

"This is the bronze statue of Louis XIV on horseback. Louis XIV called himself the Sun King. He was the king of the French Bourbon dynasty and the king of Navarre. He reigned for over seventy-two years and was the longest reigning monarch in the world. !

During the reign of Louis XIV, it was the most powerful period of the Bourbon dynasty. He established a centralized monarchy in France, and established the hegemony of Western Europe through a series of foreign wars.

In the history of France, Louis XIV has a very important historical position and is also a very accomplished king, especially the victories in a series of foreign wars have made his image even more majestic and tall.

It is a pity that his frequent wars and extravagant life style in the later period of his administration brought the French treasury to the brink of bankruptcy, and personally ruined his stalwart image in the hearts of the French people.

Louis XIV became the king of France when he was five years old. After that, he lived in the Louvre for seventy-two years. Out of his love for art, he bought a lot of precious artworks during his reign. .

Even in the era of Louis XIV, top-level works of art were valuable, and Louis XIV's large-scale purchase of top-level works of art undoubtedly greatly accelerated the speed of French financial corruption!

Due to the extravagance of Louis XIV, coupled with Louis XV, who succeeded the French king and said the famous saying "After I die, even if the flood is tornado", the situation in France has become more and more corrupt.

By the time Louis XV's grandson, Louis XVI, succeeded him as King of France, the situation in France had basically reached an irreversible point, and the conditions for the French Revolution were roughly ripe.

Louis XVI was not a bad king. Compared with the previous two kings, his life should be said to be quite frugal. Because of his stutter, he didn't like to take care of government affairs. He only liked to open locks, repair locks, and repair clocks.

But it is a pity that he married a super prodigal wife, even crazier and more extravagant than the previous two French kings. With the efforts of Queen Mary, the French Revolution finally broke out!

it's here,

I would like to advise everyone that you must take good care of your wives and never let them buy and buy. Once a woman becomes crazy, no one can stop it, and it may even lead to a revolution! "

Hearing this, the scene immediately burst into laughter.

"Hahaha"

Twenty or thirty visitors around the bronze equestrian statue of Louis XIV laughed out loud, attracting the attention of all visitors in the entire courtyard.

After the laughter subsided, a visitor joked and said loudly:

"Steven, don't warn us yet, have you done it yourself? As far as I know, you are a very extravagant guy, living in the most expensive apartment in New York, and flying around with top-notch private jets.

The 'Oppenheimer Blue' that you bought in Antwerp at a world-record price two days ago, beating many competitors, should be given to your girlfriend, right? Aren't you afraid of sparking a revolution? "

"Hahaha"

There was another burst of laughter at the scene, and everyone was overjoyed.

Betty also smiled coquettishly, her face was a little red, and she was somewhat embarrassed.

Ye Tian turned his head to look at the visitor, then smiled and said:

"I am not Louis XVI, and my girlfriend is not Queen Mary. Louis XVI only likes repairing locks, unlocking locks, and repairing clocks. He has no ability to make money. Once he has no money, he can only borrow from his subjects!

But borrowing money has to be repaid, even if you are the king of France! Unable to pay back the money, the revolution naturally broke out. The magnificent French Revolution can also be regarded as a violent debt collection operation initiated by the creditors! "

"Hahaha"

Everyone at the scene burst into laughter, and everyone was crazy with joy.

Many French people who were also at the scene rolled their eyes angrily, and everyone had a dumbfounding expression.

This guy is so ridiculous, he runs the train with his mouth full!

Co-authoring the great French Revolution was nothing more than a violent debt collection operation, full of the smell of copper, how can it be called great!

After the laughter subsided, Ye Tian continued to smile and said loudly:

"Compared to the poor and unlucky King Louis XVI of France, I have an incomparably powerful ability to make money. I'm not boasting. Making money is no more difficult for me than drinking water!

Whether it is New York, USA, or Paris, France, or anywhere else, as long as there is an antique art market, I can find valuable treasures. I am very confident in this point!

My girlfriend is not Queen Mary either. Although she likes those dazzling jewels and diamonds very much, she is not crazy, just like the "Oppenheimer's Blue", which I gave to her on my own initiative! "

Speaking of this, Ye Tian immediately turned his head to look at Betty, and gently shook her hand, eyes full of love!

The same is true for Betty, looking at Ye Tian with eyes full of love and tenderness.

Regarding Ye Tian's words, no one at the scene had the slightest doubt!

His previous series of legendary achievements, as well as the incomparably profound antique art appraisal skills he just showed, are enough to show that he is absolutely a terrifying existence in the antique art market.

Thinking of this, the eyes of many visitors at the scene looked at Ye Tian, ​​and they were suddenly full of envy. Some guys' eyeballs even turned red, all because of jealousy!

After staying in this courtyard for a while, after admiring several famous sculptures, Ye Tian and the others left the atrium courtyard.

The few of them laughed and chatted relaxedly, while admiring the various artworks passing by, they strolled towards the Greek Sculpture Museum.

Behind them, followed a long team of thirty or forty people, which became a spectacle in the Louvre, attracting countless attentions.

The visitors who followed were all attracted by Ye Tian's interesting and vivid but very professional explanation, and they were reluctant to leave one by one, planning to follow them to visit the Louvre.

The Greek Sculpture Hall of the Louvre is also located on the first floor, at the junction of the Denon Hall and the Sully Hall, with the Ancient Roman Hall of the Denon Hall on the left and the Ancient Greek Hall of the Sully Hall on the right!

While talking, Ye Tian and his group walked into the Greek Sculpture Museum.

As soon as they entered the exhibition hall, they saw the treasure of the Louvre Museum, known as one of the world's three treasures, and the famous "Venus de Milo" statue.

This beautiful lady who unfortunately lost her arms and was bare-chested stands at the entrance of the Greek Sculpture Museum, showing her beauty to every visitor who walks into the exhibition hall!

The moment they saw this sculpture, Ye Tian and the others immediately stopped in their tracks. Everyone's eyes were completely attracted by this beautiful sculpture, without exception!

"Wow! She is so beautiful, she is indeed a beauty god!"
