Treasure Hunt all over the World

After knowing the value of the antique works of art in their hands, those guys from Blackwater Company and IZO Company left the meeting room contentedly and returned to the Paul VI Hotel next to the Vatican!

The guys didn't say much when they left.

They know very well in their hearts what they can say and what they cannot say! They just took a deep look at Ye Tian, ​​and everyone nodded heavily at him, the meaning is self-evident!

It's entirely conceivable how wildly these guys will celebrate when they get back to the hotel.

For them, tonight is definitely a dreamy night, and they will not be able to sleep through the night.

By tomorrow, these guys will set off with the three top artworks, leave Rome, go straight to New York, and then send the three top artworks to the auction house, waiting to make a fortune.

Although these guys left, Ye Tian and the others did not leave this conference room, they stayed here, joking and chatting.

Ten minutes later, several security personnel who pretended to be tourists and mixed in the crowd during the day walked into the conference room with some antique artworks!

They were the guys who accepted Ye Tian's order at the open-air market in Botsemen, and secretly bloodbathed the guys from the antique shop that shut him down, Brandon, Justin, Connor and others.

It was difficult for these guys to show up at Porta Botsai open-air market, which would reveal their identities. Now that it is dead of night, and it is in the Vatican, there is no such concern.

And what they were holding in their hands were the few antique works of art that Ye Tian had secretly informed them to bring from that antique shop.

Ye Tian naturally knew about these antique works of art, but David and the others were at a loss. Everyone was very curious and wanted to know more about them.

After entering the conference room, Brandon and the others put the antique artworks in their hands on the conference table, and then stood aside, chatting with Cole and the others while waiting for Ye Tian to answer questions.

Ye Tian stepped forward, looked at the few antique artworks, and confirmed the result.

Without exception, the few antique works of art placed on the conference table are exactly the goals I designated during the day, and there are not many of them.

After confirming the result, he smiled and said:

"Very well done,

Brandon, Justin, and a few other guys, these antique works of art are exactly the targets I designated, and each of you will get a hundred thousand dollars as a reward later! "

Before the words were finished, ecstatic cheers sounded in the meeting room.

"Whoa! $100,000 reward, that's awesome!"

"Steven, you are definitely the most generous boss I have ever met, what a perfect day!"

The ones who cheered loudly were naturally Brandon and Justin. They were all excited, and they kept shaking their fists or high-fiving each other, celebrating wildly.

The other people who were also in the meeting room looked at these guys enviously, wishing they could replace them, that's a hundred thousand dollars, who wouldn't like it?

Ye Tian looked at those guys who were cheering and celebrating, then glanced at the other security personnel, and then said with a smile:

"Brandon, this is the reward you deserve, and other guys don't have to be too envious. There will be many more opportunities like this in the future, and maybe you will be the ones to cheer and celebrate next time.

Tomorrow, I am going to visit the other two famous antique streets in Rome, as well as some well-known antique shops. If there is an opportunity like today, it is up to you! "

Immediately, the cheers sounded again, but this time it was the other security personnel who cheered and celebrated.

After the cheers fell, Ye Tian got to the point.

He first pretended to appraise it, and then began to comment on the few antique works of art placed on the conference table.

"This realistic painting depicting the scenery of the Milan Canal is the work of the famous Italian painter and realist master Pietro Anigoni, created in the early 1950s.

Anigoni was one of the first members of the "Realist Painters Group" established in 1955, and one of the most outstanding Italian artists in the 20th century. He was even hailed as the last realist master!

To commemorate this outstanding artist, Italy established a considerable scale Anigoni painting exhibition hall in Florence, and named a street and a square after him.

Speaking of this realistic painting, this is a work of Anigoni at its peak, with extraordinary artistic value. I estimate its price at around US$4 million. If it goes up for auction, it may be even higher.

Let's take a look at this Impressionist painting again. This painting was made by the famous Impressionist painter Mary Cassatt. She is one of the few famous female painters in the world's art history.

Mary Cassatt is a painter from the United States and the only American invited by the French Impressionists to participate in the exhibition. She has settled in Paris for a long time since the 1870s.

Because Mary Cassatt is a woman and an American, her paintings are extremely popular in the American art market, and every time a picture appears, it will attract collectors' frantic pursuit,..."

Next, Ye Tian explained all the antique artworks on the conference table and gave their valuations.

With his introduction, there will be bursts of exclamation and cheers in this conference room from time to time.

While Ye Tian and the others were cheering and celebrating and enjoying the joy of the harvest, many places in Rome were shrouded in gloom, and many people even cursed Ye Tian in a low voice.

For many Romans, especially for professionals in the field of Roman antique art collections, it was definitely a bitter and rainy night, which will be unforgettable for a lifetime.

...

The night passed quickly, and a new day came in a blink of an eye.

In the early morning, when many Romans were still asleep and sleeping soundly, Ye Tian and the others had already woken up and started to take action!

As soon as the sun rose, a huge heavy convoy left the Vatican and headed straight for Rome's Leonardo da Vinci International Airport.

In the middle of this heavy convoy, there are two sturdy armored escort vehicles.

These two armored escort vehicles contained all the fragments of the statue of Athena, as well as all the antique Chinese artworks swept from the open-air market in Botsemen yesterday!

Those in charge of escorting and protecting the two armored escort vehicles were a large number of armed security personnel led by Ye Tian himself, as well as some members of the Swiss Guard seconded from the Vatican.

In addition, the two medium-sized helicopters rented by Ye Tian also took off at the same time, whistling and hovering over the convoy, followed the convoy all the way, and went straight to the airport.

Not surprisingly, as soon as this heavy convoy left the Vatican, it attracted countless attentions and caused quite a stir in the city of Rome.

The Italian cultural relics gendarme and the Roman police responded quickly, and their vehicles followed closely behind, staring closely at Ye Tian and their convoy.

Even the Casamonica family entrenched in the southeast of Rome was very nervous after receiving the news, lest Ye Tian and the others rush into the southeast of Rome with great fanfare!

Fortunately, this was just a false alarm, and those mafia scumbags quickly figured out that Ye Tian and the others were rushing to the airport, not looking for trouble for themselves!

From leaving the Vatican to arriving at Leonardo da Vinci International Airport, the journey went very smoothly without any trouble.

But when the customs clearance at the airport, the Italian cultural relics gendarmerie jumped out immediately and demanded to inspect all the goods that were going to be shipped to Beijing. Their attitude was very firm!

And they also brought a few experts in the identification of antique works of art, obviously they came prepared, lest Ye Tian take some priceless top antique works of art out of Italy!

Ye Tian did not refuse their request.

He behaved very calmly, and let the Italian military police inspect the cultural relics, while his team of lawyers supervised them, and recorded the whole process with a video camera, keeping it as evidence, so as not to be stolen!

The detailed examination began immediately, but Ye Tian knew it well!

Those experts in the appraisal of Italian antique works of art are not in vain. Everyone has real talents and knowledge, and they are somewhat famous in the industry!

However, in their eyes, those Chinese antique works of art are not top-level works of art that are restricted from leaving the country, and they are not on the relevant list, and there is no reason to detain them.

They didn't know the fragments of the statue of Athena that Ye Tian had completely messed up and scattered in several solid wooden crates, so they couldn't determine their origin and value.

Moreover, the statue was damaged so badly that it couldn't be seen to be of much value at all, and there was no need to keep it in trouble!

Considering Ye Tian's huge influence in the field of antique art collection, coupled with the camera lens facing them all the time, those experts in antique art appraisal did not dare to find fault for no reason, it would be tantamount to asking for trouble!

In this way, it took more than an hour to complete the customs clearance work.

Next, Anderson and the others escorted the solid wooden crates filled with antique artworks and fragments of the statue of Athena into the airport, and boarded the Air China charter plane responsible for transporting these treasures.

About half an hour later, the Air China charter plane took off with a bang, roared into the sky, and flew straight to the east, heading straight for Beijing!

Ye Tian let out a deep breath until the large passenger plane soared into the blue sky and flew out of sight. The heart that had been hanging high in his throat before fell back into his stomach.

Afterwards, he left the airport with the escort convoy and returned to the Vatican.

At this time, it was almost nine o'clock in the morning.

The ancient city of Rome has fully woken up and started a new day. People in this city are busy with their lives again!

But how did the Romans know that this stormy city would soon face another storm, and it would be ransacked by Ye Tian again.

Ye Tian's goal this time is no longer the open-air market of Porta Porta, but the two most famous antique streets in Rome, as well as the well-known antique shops dotted in the city!
