Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 1712 Transfer Risk

At around ten o'clock in the evening, the four top art insurance companies finally reached an agreement.

They decided to jointly underwrite "Lisa Gherardini", and the insurance amount was exactly the 2 billion euros Ye Tian had set.

This is just the insurance amount, the insurance premium Ye Tian needs to bear, of course not so exaggerated, but it is also a staggering astonishing figure.

For this fee, Ye Tian didn't care at all, it was just a drop in the bucket.

Furthermore, this cost will eventually be passed on to other people, so you don't have to bear it yourself.

Whoever wins "Lisa Gherardini" in the end will bear the sky-high insurance premium.

After the four art insurance companies decided to jointly underwrite the insurance, they immediately notified Ye Tian.

The moment Ye Tian received the news, he immediately decided to strike while the iron was hot.

At midnight that day, in a conference room of the Four Seasons Hotel, Ye Tian signed insurance contracts with four art insurance companies and handed over "Lisa Gherardini" to them.

Next, taking advantage of the night and the great opportunity when the protesters and demonstrators in front of the hotel dispersed, the joint security teams of the four art insurance companies used helicopters to take away this priceless treasure from the air.

Afterwards, they stored this priceless treasure in a secret vault, and arranged for a large number of heavily armed security personnel to guard it strictly, making it very safe.

The security guards guarding the secret vault also came from four art insurance companies according to Ye Tian's request, and their strengths are balanced, so they can supervise and check each other!

The passwords and fingerprints to open the vault are in the hands of the managers of the four art insurance companies, and no one can open the secret vault unless they are on site!

All these actions were carried out under the cover of night, without anyone noticing, almost hiding from everyone's eyes, including many news media and the Milan police.

Even the Italian cultural relics gendarme, who had been watching Ye Tian's every move and "Lisa Gherardini" closely, was kept in the dark.

When the sun rose again, Ye Tian had transferred all the risks and became relaxed.

After having breakfast in the morning and resting in the room for a while, Ye Tian and the others set off again, planning to continue visiting the places of interest in Milan.

In Ye Tian's plan, there are two places for them to visit today, and these two attractions are very close to each other, only a few hundred meters away from each other, and they can be reached by walking!

The first scenic spot is the famous Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, where Da Vinci's other masterpiece, "The Last Supper" is located.

The second attraction is the famous Sforza Castle, the former ruler of Milan, the castle of the Sforza family, and the place where Da Vinci lived and worked for a long time.

After visiting the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, you can choose to walk to Sforza Castle for a visit. On the way, you will pass the ancient street written on the back of "Lisa Gherardini".

Taking this opportunity, Ye Tian intends to investigate the ancient street built in the 14th century, to see if he can find Da Vinci's former residence, and if there are any secrets hidden there.

Coming out of the elevator, Ye Tian immediately saw Giovanni waiting in the hotel lobby, several other Italian cultural relics gendarmes, and seven or eight Milan policemen in plain clothes.

In addition, beside Giovanni, he also saw two familiar faces.

Those were two top Italian experts in the identification of antique works of art. They were well-known in the industry. Although they had never met before, they knew them well.

Ye Tian knew why these two experts in antique art appraisal appeared here. Of course, they came for "Lisa Gherardini".

As expected, they must be the experts and scholars who came to Milan together with the Italian Minister of Culture to appraise "Lisa Gherardini".

"Good morning, Giovanni, I didn't expect to see you so early in the morning, please don't tell me that you stayed here all night"

Ye Tian said jokingly, saying hello to his old friend Giovanni.

"Good morning, Steven, I just came here too, I wasn't here last night, it seems that you are going out? Where are you going?

Since you are going out, where is Da Vinci's "Lisa Gherardini"? Is it safe? When can we authenticate that painting?

My immediate boss and several experts in the appraisal of antique works of art from Rome have been waiting in Milan for more than a day, I hope you will not make them wait too long"

Giovanni also greeted Ye Tian, ​​and then asked a series of questions.

"That's right, Giovanni, we really want to go out and visit. There are many famous scenic spots in Milan. Since we have come to this city, of course we can't miss it.

We are going to visit the Church of Santa Maria del Grazie today, and we are ready to appreciate Da Vinci's masterpiece, "The Last Supper", and experience the great charm of that painting.

Next, we will visit the nearby Sforza Castle, where Michelangelo's last sculpture remains in the world, which is also not to be missed.

As for "Lisa Gherardini", you can rest assured that the oil painting is now stored in a very secret and safe place, and there will be no problems.

I said before that before I complete the appraisal, others can only wait patiently. I believe that it will not be long before you can see the oil painting."

Hearing his words, the three Italians on the opposite side couldn't help but rolled their eyes angrily, but they had no choice but to be secretly depressed!

No way, who let "Lisa Gherardini" be in the hands of this bastard, Steven, and this bastard is extremely difficult to deal with, always holding the initiative, and others can only be led by the nose by him!

Next, Giovanni introduced the two antique art appraisal experts around him, and explained their purpose of coming to Milan.

After getting acquainted with each other and exchanging pleasantries, the two immediately asked about the situation of "Lisa Gherardini", their excited eyes were shining brightly, and their eyes were full of anticipation.

Ye Tian randomly picked a few parts of the oil painting that did not need to be kept secret, introduced them to the two appraisal experts, and dealt with them.

After chatting for a few more words, Ye Tian said goodbye and left, leading Betty to the hotel entrance.

At the same time, Cole, who was walking beside him, also informed him of the situation in a low voice.

"Steven, our snipers are ambushing in two buildings near the hotel, condescendingly controlling the protesters outside the hotel.

In addition, several face-to-face guys pretended to be petitioners and protesters, and had already mixed into the crowd outside the hotel, and no dangerous elements were found yet.

Even if there are guys with ulterior motives lurking in the crowd, there is not much threat. Our bulletproof SUVs can completely block the view from the outside.

As for the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, a few guys have already rushed over and are investigating the situation there, and have not found any danger for the time being."

"Okay, Cole, tell all the guys to be vigilant, not only be careful of revenge from the Casamonica family and the gypsy gang, but also be careful of some hot-headed idiots!"

With that said, Ye Tian and his group walked out of the gate of Four Seasons Hotel.

At this time, the convoy had already driven to the entrance of the hotel, and stopped end to end in a staggered manner, perfectly blocking the sight from afar.

Even so, many media reporters gathered near the entrance of the Four Seasons Hotel, as well as those passionate petitioners and protesters, still found them.

In the next moment, the entrance of the Four Seasons Hotel was like a volcanic eruption, and there was a burst of shouts and protests and demonstrations.

"Steven, Da Vinci's "Lisa Gherardini" belongs to Italy and Milan. You can't take it away. Leave that oil painting in Milan!"

"You are a complete bastard, the most hateful robber, Steven, keep Da Vinci's "Lisa Gherardini", and then go back to the damn America, you are not welcome in Milan!"

Ye Tian didn't even bother to answer these deafening noises.

He first took a quick look at all the vehicles, and after confirming that it was safe, he immediately reached out and opened the rear door of a Mercedes-Benz bulletproof SUV, and took Betty into the car.

Soon, their heavy convoy started with a bang, and slowly drove away from the Four Seasons Hotel under the escort of several Milan police cars!

Just like when returning to the hotel from the Canal Antique Fair, behind their convoy, many vehicles followed them and drove to the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie!
