Treasure Hunt all over the World

As night fell, all the tourists who came to visit the Vatican had left, and the city-state, which had been noisy all day, finally quieted down.

However, the eyes of countless people are still paying attention to this place, to the private auction that is about to start and will definitely cause a sensation in the world, even if there is only one piece of art in that auction.

It was around eight o'clock in the evening. On the second floor of the Vatican Museum, the exhibition hall where the auction preview of "Lisa Gherardini" was held was brightly lit and full of voices.

Because there were not too many bidders invited to participate in the auction, counting their entourage, as well as the hired lawyers, art brokers and top art appraisal experts, there were no more than a hundred people!

In addition, there is only one lot, so it will not take a lot of time, and there is no need to arrange seats. Everyone can complete the auction while standing, and it is more comfortable.

Therefore, Ye Tian decided to hold a private auction in this exhibition hall.

This way you don't have to move "Lisa Gherardini" back and forth, which saves a lot of work, is safer, and is very intuitive, and the atmosphere of the museum is quite good!

The only thing that needs attention is the security of the auction site and other exhibition halls of the museum. Don't let some guys take advantage of the loopholes and sneak into other exhibition halls while the auction is in progress.

Ye Tian and the security department of the museum have considered this point and made very careful arrangements.

Only invited bidders, their entourage, lawyers and others can enter the museum to participate in this private auction, and the number of people is strictly limited, and they have to go through several security checks and verify their identities.

The other wealthy people and collectors who were not invited did not even think about entering the museum. Like other idlers, they were all invited out of the Vatican, and could only stay in the distance and sigh.

Under such circumstances, art thieves, no matter how skilled and how good their camouflage ability is, would never even try to sneak into the Vatican Museum, let alone carry weapons or other various equipment.

In addition, the security department of the Vatican Museum deliberately opened a safe passage from the gate of the museum to the exhibition hall where the auction was held.

On this not-too-long safe passage, museum security personnel and staff with live ammunition are guarding every few meters, and they are always under surveillance without any loopholes.

As for the exhibition hall where the auction was held, the security tasks were taken over by Ye Tian's security personnel. The entire exhibition hall was under the control of Cole and the others, and water could not enter it!

Coupled with Ye Tian's perspective ability and unparalleled strength,

Even if God came, don't try to snatch Lisa Gherardini from this exhibition hall.

It was getting closer and closer to 8 o'clock in the evening, and the atmosphere in the exhibition hall was getting hotter and hotter. Although the ears were full of laughter and laughter, there was a strong smell of gunpowder in the air.

All the buyers invited to participate in this private auction have arrived and are secretly gearing up, ready to fight and beat all competitors to win the masterpiece of Leonardo da Vinci, "Lisa Gherardini".

Seeing that it was almost eight o'clock and Ye Tian was chatting with his old friend Bernard and others, he smiled and said:

"Gentlemen, it's almost eight o'clock. The auction will start soon. I won't chat with you. I'm going to host the auction. I wish you good luck and your wishes will come true!"

After speaking, he walked towards "Lisa Gherardini".

Two meters in front of this top art work, there is a quaint auction stage, which is the stage where Ye Tian will perform later, and it is also the place where he slaughtered a certain super rich man on the scene.

Seeing his actions, everyone in the exhibition hall immediately stopped talking, and the scene fell silent.

Without exception, everyone at the scene looked at Ye Tian and at "Lisa Gherardini" hanging on the wall. Everyone's eyes were extremely hot and full of fighting spirit.

In just three or two steps, Ye Tian walked up to the auction stage, and picked up the auction mallet that was placed on the auction stage.

Just as he turned around and looked at the audience, the auction mallet in his hand fell, and a series of movements were smooth and smooth, which was pleasing to the eye.

"boom!"

The auction hammer fell heavily on the table, and the sound resounded throughout the exhibition hall.

With this sound, everyone at the scene became more excited immediately, everyone's eyes lit up, and they were ready for the next fight in an instant.

Ye Tian quickly scanned the audience, then with a smile on his face, he started his performance.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, I'm Steven, welcome to the Vatican Museums, and welcome to my private auction, it's a great honor!

I sincerely hope everyone gets what they want, but there is only one lot in the lot tonight, and the vast majority of people are destined to walk away empty-handed, but I still hope you enjoy this wonderful evening! "

"clap clap"

There was a burst of warm applause in the exhibition hall, and everyone at the scene began to applaud.

Everyone gave their warm applause for Ye Tian's words, for "Lisa Gherardini", Da Vinci's masterpiece, for the high spirited self, and for this night that was destined to cause a sensation in the world.

After the applause subsided, Ye Tian's clear and magnetic voice came out again, reaching the ears of everyone present.

"In today's private auction, there is only one lot, and that is the "Lisa Gherardini" hanging on the wall, one of the three masters of Renaissance art and a masterpiece of Leonardo da Vinci.

In terms of artistry, this "Lisa Gherardini" is not inferior to the treasure of the Louvre Museum, the world-famous "Mona Lisa", and its preservation is better.

This afternoon, everyone has appraised and appreciated this priceless treasure. There should be no doubt about its authenticity. I can say with absolute certainty that this is definitely an authentic work by Leonardo da Vinci.

About the origin of this "Lisa Gherardini" and how I got it, you all know very well, but I still want to introduce it again, everyone, don’t think I am clichéd,..."

Next, Ye Tian began to introduce the process of obtaining this priceless treasure. Of course, there were many spring and autumn strokes in it, and he attributed it all to his own good luck.

"Lisa Gherardini" is a top-notch work of art that just came out and was put up for auction in a blink of an eye, and it is a priceless treasure. Of course, its origin must be publicly explained and its legitimacy demonstrated.

This is an essential procedure and very important, so everyone at the scene was listening to Ye Tian's introduction without any objection!

Hearing his words, everyone at the scene couldn't help being envious, and some guys' eyes turned red with envy, and they all secretly complained.

"God is so partial to this bastard Steven, all the good things have been thrown at this guy, let him get one top antique art after another, one crazy treasure after another.

But what about everyone else? God simply turned a blind eye. Such a good thing, such a priceless treasure as "Lisa Gherardini", would never fall on other people's heads. How can he reason? It's so irritating! "

It took about two or three minutes for Ye Tiantian to introduce the process of obtaining "Lisa Gherardini" and the subsequent identification process.

Next, it's time to get to the point.

"As you all know, once "Lisa Gherardini" was discovered and preliminarily determined to be the authentic work of Leonardo da Vinci, it immediately caused a huge sensation and was quickly included in the list of artworks restricted from leaving the country.

In other words, I cannot leave Italy with this priceless treasure. Even if this priceless treasure belongs to me, I can only collect it in Italy or process it legally.

I am known to be a good and law-abiding citizen, and even in Italy, I would not break the laws of the country, leave Italy with this priceless treasure, and bring it back to New York"

"Hahaha"

Before Ye Tian's words fell, there was a burst of laughter at the scene, and everyone in the exhibition hall burst out laughing.

Are you a good law-abiding citizen? We also have to believe it! Those unlucky bastards sent to hell by you have to believe it too!

Giovanni and Italian Minister of Culture Tiano, who were standing in the crowd, also laughed loudly, and at the same time, they all let out a deep breath and relaxed a lot.

They understood that Ye Tian kept his previous promise.

Before the auction officially starts, he will explain to all buyers participating in the auction that he must not leave Italy with "Lisa Gherardini".

Sure enough, Ye Tian then talked about this issue.

"As you know, I'm a top professional treasure hunter, not a collector, and while I really like Lisa Gherardini, I don't intend to own this priceless piece.

To me, this priceless treasure is a commodity, essentially like any other commodity, except that it is worth a little more, maybe a lot more.

It is precisely because of this that there is this private auction tonight, and everyone will gather here to appreciate this masterpiece of Leonardo da Vinci and compete fairly for this top-level artwork.

Before I do that, I must say that no matter which buyer wins, this "Lisa Gherardini" cannot be taken out of Italy unless official permission is obtained! "
