Treasure Hunt all over the World
Chapter 652 The Colombian who is blind
"Gentlemen, please wait!"
Silva smiled and nodded, and then went to get the treasure map.
But instead of going upstairs or into any of the rooms, he left the living room and walked straight to the small fountain in the center of the courtyard.
After walking to the edge of the fountain, Silva immediately squatted down, leaned forward and stretched his hands into the water.
Apparently, that treasure map is hidden under those pebbles and sand in the fountain, or the bottom of the water sculpture!
Seeing his action, Ye Tian was suddenly stunned.
No wonder you didn't see the glow from the treasure map in the living room! It turned out that it was hidden in the fountain and was covered by layers. This is indeed a very good hiding place! Ingenuity!
A look of astonishment flashed in the eyes of Russell and Matisse, and they gave a thumbs up secretly. They are really cautious guys.
Soon, Silva took out a sealed box wrapped in layers from the bottom of the fountain, and returned to the living room with it.
"What a joke! The surrounding environment is too dangerous, I have to hide this thing, so as not to be discovered by the gangsters outside the door, it will definitely be snatched away by them.
During this period of time when there was no one at home, several groups of uninvited guests had come. Fortunately, they did not find what they were looking for, nor did they wreak havoc, so they were very cautious.
However, through some small traps secretly arranged, I still found the traces of these people, so I contacted you secretly in the bar, hoping to get rid of these bastards.
From the beginning to the end, this thing has been hidden under the fountain. I dare not take it out, let alone carry it with me, otherwise it will never be preserved! "
While explaining the situation, Silva unpacked the sealed package with a slightly smug tone.
"You are right to do this, the most dangerous place is often the safest!"
Ye Tian echoed, keeping his eyes on the box on the coffee table that was gradually revealing its true face.
Although he hadn't seen the treasure map yet, but through the dazzling red light emitted by the box, he was very sure that this treasure map was indeed from the early eighteenth century and had a history of nearly 300 years.
As for whether the content of the treasure map is related to the shipwreck of the Malaga Princess, you can only find out after opening the map and studying it. There is no need to worry about perspective.
The several sealed bags wrapped outside were quickly removed, and a simple cherry wood box appeared in front of everyone.
Just when Silva took out the key and was about to open the small padlock on the box, Ye Tian suddenly remembered something, pointed to the oil painting on the wall behind him and said:
"Silva, has the oil painting on the wall behind you been hanging there? Just now you said that several groups of people broke into here secretly, didn't they take anything?
That oil painting looks good! How could those guys let it go? I know the saying that thieves don't leave empty space, since they come in, they will always take something away! "
What Ye Tian pointed to was that top-level artwork that radiated dazzling orange light, a beautiful landscape oil painting.
It's a miracle that a piece of top-notch artwork was hung on the wall in such a grand manner without any protection measures, that it was not stolen by those gangsters!
This situation only shows two problems, this guy Silva has no eyes, and those Colombian gangsters have no eyes! I don't even know what a real baby is!
It is also fortunate that they have blind eyes, so that this top-level artwork has survived until now, appearing in front of their eyes.
Obviously, this is reserved for buddies! If you don't keep it in your pocket, who will you be worthy of?
Thinking of this, Ye Tian couldn't help but secretly feel grateful.
Hearing his words, Matisse and Russell immediately looked up at the oil painting.
Russell is just a rough guy, he doesn't know any art, let alone oil painting! After a glance, he retracted his gaze and refocused on the box in front of him.
Matisse's performance was different, a hint of surprise quickly flashed in his eyes!
Although he couldn't see the value of the oil painting,
He didn't know whose work it was, but he knew very well in his heart that the oil painting must be of great value.
There is no other reason! Steven is always on target! When did you take a look?
Silva glanced back at the oil painting, then turned his head and said:
"You mean "Venice View", that's right, that classic oil painting has been hanging there for several years, it was my uncle's relic, and it was given to me after he passed away.
That oil painting should be relatively old. As long as I can remember, it has been hanging on the wall of my uncle's living room. My uncle never mentioned where he got it from.
After I got the oil painting, I asked someone to appraise it, but the result was very disappointing. The appraisal expert told me that it was only the work of an unknown Italian painter, and it was not worth a lot of money!
Because it is a relic of my uncle, it has a certain commemorative significance, and the scenery on the painting is really good, so I hung it here as an ornament to decorate the living room! "
Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately began to complain crazily in his heart, and almost laughed out of anger!
Unknown Italian painter? How much is it worth?
Where is this shit appraisal expert who came out of nowhere, the Brick family is almost the same!
When did Titian Vecellio, the greatest painter of the Venetian School of Painting in the late Renaissance, become an unknown Italian painter? What an international joke!
If he is an unknown painter, then there are probably not many famous painters in the world!
How much are his paintings worth? What's more, he is the biggest joke in the world!
In addition to the three masters of Renaissance art, how many paintings of top art masters are more valuable than his paintings?
Among other things, the painting "The Catastrophe of Europa" at the Gardner Museum in Boston is a priceless treasure.
Vermeer's "The Concert" and Rembrandt's "Storm on the Sea of Galilee", the sum of the value of these two oil paintings may not be worth it! Those are top oil paintings worth hundreds of millions of dollars!
Colombians seem to be only suitable for growing coffee or selling cocaine, and the distance from art is too far away! How blind to this point! Simply sensational!
Silva continued to talk, not paying attention to the subtle changes in Ye Tian's emotions.
"You're right, thieves don't leave empty space, although those bastards didn't take away this oil painting by an unknown artist, they took away a few hundred dollars that I deliberately hid behind the oil painting.
The second time it was lost was an emerald brooch from my wife, it was through these details that I found out that someone had broken into the house and searched the house to the bottom”
"What are you going to do with this oil painting? Take it down and take it away? It's not easy to carry around. It's more than one meter wide and high. Even if it's put in a painting tube, it's very conspicuous!"
Ye Tian looked at the oil paintings on the wall and asked curiously.
He is ready to shoot! Since all of you guys have blind eyes and treat priceless treasures as rubbish, why are you being polite?
If you miss this god-given opportunity, you will be struck by lightning!
"What else can I do? I have to throw it here. Not only this oil painting, but almost everything in this house has to be discarded. Escape is the most important thing!"
Silva said sadly, and took a quick look around his home, looking at everything in the house.
have to! It's a matter of course!
"What a pity to throw it away! I really like this oil painting, how about selling it to me? I plan to take it back to decorate my apartment and make the most of it!
Venice, the city of water, is famous far and wide. I have always wanted to go there, but I have never had the time. Now that I have come across this oil painting depicting the scenery of Venice, it would be a pity to miss it! "
Ye Tian looked at Silva with a smile on his face and said, his expression was quite calm, and he couldn't see anything unusual.
But in his heart, he was extremely nervous at this moment, looking forward to hearing the most perfect answer.
For him, dreams can always come true! This time is no exception!
"Since you like this oil painting, just take it away. It's better than throwing it away! Just sell it, it's not worth much anyway!"
Silva answered very simply, without the slightest hesitation, and did not think about other aspects at all.
Of course, if he knew that he was facing Ye Tian, that famous professional treasure hunter with vicious eyes, it would be a different matter!
At this moment, he still has the mind to pay attention to a worthless oil painting. What he cares most about is how to escape Colombia with his family and start a new life!
Besides, there is a top-level artwork hidden in the ceiling above my head!
As long as you take that top famous painting out of Colombia, a new life like heaven will appear in front of your family!
As for other things, what can not give up?
awesome! Take it! Well worth the trip!
Ye Tian secretly cheered, and almost jumped up excitedly.
Afterwards, he immediately suppressed his excitement, shook his head with a smile and said:
"Silva, I can't take this oil painting for nothing, whether you are going to throw it away or not, even if you pay $1, I must get this oil painting in exchange.
This is an industry rule! I can't spoil it, the painting looks beautiful and I like it, so I decided to offer $500, would you accept it? "
As he spoke, he took out his wallet, took out five Franklin cards and placed them in front of Silva.
Seeing his movements and firm eyes, what else can Silva say.
"Okay, Jack, for $500, that "Venice View" is yours"
Silva got up and shook hands with Ye Tian, a deal was reached.
Afterwards, he directly put away the five hundred dollars on the table, and there was even a little joy in his eyes.
Done! Another big windfall!
Ye Tian cheered secretly, he was so beautiful that his nose was almost soaked by snot!
After calming down a bit, he immediately said to Matisse:
"Payton, go and take down that oil painting. Be careful when rolling it up. Don't fold it. Carry it first after rolling it up. After leaving here, let's go buy a painting tube"
"Okay, I know how to do it"
Matisse responded, got up and was about to dismantle the oil painting, his eyes flashed with excitement.
At this moment, Silva suddenly interjected:
"You don't need to buy paint tubes. There are several paint tubes in the cabinet next to the oil painting. Choose the one that suits you."
As he spoke, he pointed to the cabinet against the wall.
"Okay thank you!"
Matisse nodded, and walked towards the top oil painting.
Just as he took off the oil painting and began to dismantle the outer frame, Silva also unlocked the box on the coffee table, opened the box, and took out an old sheepskin map from inside.
Afterwards, he spread the map on the coffee table and displayed it in front of everyone.
"Jack, please appraise it, this is the treasure map you are looking for, it is genuine!"
