Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 1817 Stay 1 line in life?

Because they had just been to Nicosia and many tourist destinations along the Mediterranean coast, such as Nice and Cannes in France, Ye Tian and the others quickly lost interest in the street scene of Larnaca.

As far as the scenery is concerned, Larnaca and Nicosia are similar. Except that there is no sunny beach, Nicosia is better than Larnaca in other aspects.

As for the famous tourist destinations along the Mediterranean coast such as Nice and Cannes, Larnaca cannot be compared with them at all.

For tourists who come to the Mediterranean Sea for the first time and travel to Larnaca, this Mediterranean island town is still very interesting and the scenery is not bad!

But for Ye Tian and the others, the scenery here is not very attractive. Coupled with the weather, it is no wonder that they will lose interest in the street scenery here.

Although he is not very interested in the street scene here, Ye Tian is very interested in the antique shops and galleries in Larnaca.

The island of Cyprus has a long history and has been a battleground for military strategists throughout the ages. There are many historical relics on the island. Naturally, there are also many antique relics here.

And like many tourist destinations along the Mediterranean coast, many artists have come to Cyprus, settled here to live and create, and left behind many outstanding works of art.

These antique artworks on the island are what Ye Tian is most interested in. Now that he has come to Cyprus, he cannot miss the antique shops and galleries here.

After wandering around three or four streets in the drizzle, Ye Tian turned his attention to the antique shops and galleries that appeared on the street from time to time, trying to find something!

When they came to another ancient street, after a few steps, they saw a gallery filled with flowers and green plants on the side of the street, which was quite sentimental and artistic.

From these vibrant flowers and green plants, it can be seen that the owner of this gallery must be a person who loves life very much.

"Guys, let's go to that gallery to have a look, maybe there will be surprising discoveries, and a change of environment by the way, this wet and cold weather is really uncomfortable!"

Ye Tian said with a smile, and pointed to the gallery on the side of the road.

Naturally, David and the others had no objection to his proposal, and they all nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, Ye Tian and the others walked across the street, opened the door and walked into the gallery.

The gallery is small in size,

The paintings on display are basically paintings of various artistic schools between the end of the nineteenth century and the late twentieth century, mainly realism and post-impressionism.

When Ye Tian and the others opened the door and entered the gallery, there were no other guests in the gallery. The boss was sitting on a chair, drinking coffee and reading a book, very comfortable.

Hearing the voice coming from the direction of the door, the gallery owner immediately looked up.

When he saw that it was Ye Tian and his group who walked into his gallery, he immediately froze on the sofa with a dumbfounded expression, as if he wondered if he was dazzled.

At the same time, the gallery owner's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly felt that something was wrong.

What happened in Jerusalem two days ago has long been known to the whole world, and the gallery owner is no exception.

As a gallery owner and an insider in the antique art market, he knows even better than most people.

"I'm going! Why did this bastard, Steven, come to Larnaca and come to my gallery? Is it possible that I will be the next unlucky person to be ransacked? I hope God blesses that such a thing had better not happen! "

The gallery owner's drastic emotional changes were fully expressed on his face, and Ye Tian and the others saw everything in their eyes.

Ye Tian turned a blind eye, he quickly scanned the situation in the gallery, and then smiled and greeted the gallery owner.

"Good morning, buddy. I'm Steven. I just came to Larnaca this morning. Your gallery is very nice, especially the flowers and green plants at the entrance. They look beautiful and I like them very much!"

Following Ye Tian's words, the gallery owner finally woke up.

He hurriedly stood up from the sofa, and took a few steps forward to extend his right hand to Ye Tian, ​​saying hello.

"Mr. Steven, good morning, I'm Harris, the owner of this gallery, welcome to Larnaca, Cyprus, welcome to my gallery, nice to meet you.

I really didn't expect you to come to my gallery, full of splendor! The moment I saw you just now, I even wondered if my vision was wrong, and I thought it was impossible! "

Ye Tian shook hands with the other party, then smiled and said:

"Hello, Mr. Harris, I am also very glad to meet you. We were shopping outside just now. When we walked into this street, we were immediately attracted by the delicate and blooming flowers and green plants at the entrance of the gallery.

It can be seen that you are a person who loves life very much, and your gallery must be very good, so we walked into your gallery to appreciate the artworks displayed here! "

Hearing Ye Tian's compliments, Harris couldn't help flashing a look of complacency, and his tense nerves relaxed a little bit.

After chatting for a while, Ye Tian introduced David and the others.

After everyone got to know each other and greeted each other, Ye Tian pointed to the paintings displayed in the gallery and said with a smile:

"Harris, can I appreciate these paintings? Especially the large number of realist and post-impressionist paintings here, which are all art genres I like very much!"

Hearing this, Harris' eyelids twitched suddenly, and the nerves that had been relaxed just now suddenly tightened, even more tense than before.

He took a deep look at Ye Tianxiang, then forced a smile on his face, nodded and said:

"Of course you can appreciate these paintings, Steven, these paintings are displayed here for people to appreciate, and it's great that you like them.

However, I also have an unfeeling request. I hope you can hold your hand high and don't loot my place. I have heard about the things that happened in Jerusalem! "

"Hahaha"

There was a burst of laughter at the scene, and Ye Tian and the others all laughed.

After the laughter subsided, Ye Tian said jokingly:

"It's not so exaggerated, Harris, it's just rumors, it's not about looting at all! You don't have to worry too much, I still understand the truth of being a person who stays a front line so that we can meet each other in the future!"

Before the words fell, Harris rolled his eyes angrily, and complained secretly.

"Leave a line in life? Don't talk nonsense. If you really understand this truth, you won't create so many human tragedies with your own hands, and you won't be regarded as a scourge by all your peers, and you won't be able to avoid it!"

Although he thought so in his heart, he dared not say it even if he borrowed Harris' courage.

He could only pray secretly, hoping that God would bless him and let him escape this disaster.

However, after ten minutes, an oil painting on canvas that was originally hung on the display wall fell into Ye Tian's hands, and it only cost 1,800 US dollars.

However, Ye Tian was more generous this time. Before leaving the gallery, he suddenly pointed to a post-impressionist painting on the wall and said:

"Harris, if I'm not mistaken, it should be a painting by the famous Post-Impressionist painter Paul Serusier, with a market value of around 1.2 million euros.

I don't know if you understand the value of that painting, I just want to remind you so that you don't lose your treasure, well, we should go too, nice to meet you, see you later! "

After finishing speaking, Ye Tian waved to Harris, and then walked towards the entrance of the gallery with David and the others, holding the painting just harvested in his hand.

At this time, Harris was completely overwhelmed by the surging ecstasy, and the whole person had fallen into a state of sluggishness, and even temporarily lost the ability to speak, and could not even utter a word.

At the same time, he also felt a piercing pain.

He knew very well in his heart that since that fellow Steven could recognize Paul Serusier's paintings at a glance and give an accurate valuation, then there is no need to think about it, that bastard has been acting all the time!

The painting that Steven bought for $1,800 must be worth more, and it is very likely to be a top-notch work of art that is priceless!

There is no doubt that I was ransacked by Steven, that greedy bastard, and became the protagonist of another tragedy!

But this crazy ransacking made me both painful and happy! Emotions are like a roller coaster ride, with ups and downs that can drive you completely crazy.

It wasn't until Ye Tian and the others walked out of the gallery and the sound of closing the door came that Harris, who had fallen into a stupor, woke up.

Immediately afterwards, a painful cry came from the gallery.

"Steven, can you tell me which artist's work is that Pre-Raphaelite painting and how much it is worth? To solve my confusion, otherwise I will not be able to sleep at night!"

Ye Tian did not respond to gallery owner Harris' loud inquiries, or in other words, did not respond openly and loudly.

He just smiled softly, then whispered to David and the others beside him:

"This Pre-Raphaelite painting is the peak of Hunter, a famous British painter in the 19th century and one of the founders of the Pre-Raphaelites. The market value is about 1,500 US dollars!"

Hearing his words, David and the others immediately exclaimed in a low voice.

"Wow! $15 million, obviously a top-notch work of art!"
