Treasure Hunt all over the World

Just after ten o'clock in the morning, a convoy drove out of the parking lot of the Beijing Hotel, headed west along Chang'an Avenue, and headed straight for Financial Street on the edge of the West Second Ring Road.

The convoy was led by a police car with flashing lights, followed by a Range Rover SUV and a black GMC van.

In the middle of the convoy was a large and extremely sturdy armored escort vehicle, followed by two commercial vehicles, and finally another police car with flashing lights.

When the convoy passed by on Chang'an Avenue, it immediately attracted a lot of attention.

Many people are speculating about the origin of this team and the identity of the people inside.

Could it be the head of state or dignitary of a small country visiting? I really know how to pick the time, it’s the New Year’s Eve! Nine out of ten are here to play the autumn wind!

Of course, this is not a convoy of dignitaries, but an escort convoy following Ye Tian to the financial street vault to extract antique works of art.

In addition to Ye Tian, ​​Raymond and the others, there were more than a dozen security personnel in the convoy, as well as eight special police officers from the Municipal Bureau, and two lawyers were also in the black GMC commercial vehicle.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, there are fewer pedestrians and vehicles on Chang'an Avenue than usual, and the road is unimpeded!

Soon, the convoy arrived at Financial Street and drove into the underground parking lot of the bank headquarters where the vault was located.

After confirming that the surrounding environment was safe, Ye Tian took two lawyers, as well as security personnel and police, and followed the bank managers into the vault.

Next, the process of extracting the antique artwork was very smooth.

Opening the door of the leased vault, after entering it, Ye Tian immediately turned on the perspective secretly, and looked at the trolley boxes placed in the center of the vault.

Under the perspective, those top-level antique artworks packed in several huge metal trolley boxes were instantly presented in Ye Tian's eyes, and they could be seen at a glance.

All the antique art is there, not a single piece is missing! It still maintains the state when it was stored in, emitting a dazzling and charming light, which is dazzling!

After confirming that it was correct, Ye Tian and the others left the vault with these top-level antique artworks.

Before eleven o'clock, the convoy returned safely to the Beijing Hotel.

Ten minutes later, the elevator door on the floor where the banquet hall is located opened.

Raymond and the others pushed the luggage cart full of trolley suitcases and followed Ye Tian out of the elevator.

At the same time, the accompanying special police and security personnel also came out of another elevator and followed Ye Tian and the others like a shadow, maintaining a high level of alert.

As soon as he got out of the elevator, Ye Tian saw Old Shan and the others guarding near the elevator, eager to see through.

Their team has grown a lot, more than double the number of people before.

Manager Liu and Mr. Liang from Rongbaozhai, two experts in antique art appraisal from the Capital Museum, several experts from the National Museum, and several other famous collectors also joined the team.

In addition, Ye Tian also saw a very familiar face.

That is Mr. Ma, who has dealt with each other at the New York autumn auction and has been in contact with everyone. He is also standing among the crowd.

The group of people guarding near the elevator are all well-known figures in the domestic antique industry, top experts and scholars, or collectors!

And near the entrance of the exhibition hall with the closed door, there are still more than a dozen people standing, including men and women, who are much younger, talking, laughing and discussing enthusiastically.

Although the distance was still far away, Ye Tian could tell their identities at a glance from the clothes they wore.

This is a group of cultural and museum personnel from the Forbidden City, no need to ask, it must be Shan Lao and Jin Lao who called to help arrange the exhibition.

Without exception, from the elevator to the entrance of the exhibition hall, everyone was beaming and very excited! Everyone has bright smiles on their faces, and everyone's eyes are full of anticipation!

"Hey——! This scene is really too big! I'm so flattered! Here, Xiaozi Ye Tian first wishes you all a happy New Year! I wish you all good health and a long life!"

Ye Tian let out an exaggerated expression, attracting everyone's attention, then clasped his fists and bowed to everyone present, wishing everyone a new year.

His series of actions were thoughtful and impeccable, and instantly won the favor of everyone present.

Before everyone could respond, he joked and said loudly:

"You guys are so flattering and generous! If this scene gets out, it will definitely cause a sensation in the entire antique industry, and it will be enough for me to brag about it for the rest of my life!"

Hearing this, the scene immediately burst into laughter.

"Hahaha"

Everyone laughed, and everyone stared at Ye Tian with admiration and envy in their eyes.

Who can not envy it? Unless he also owns dozens of top antique works of art called national treasures, is there such a person? Maybe, but definitely very few!

Amidst the laughter, Master Ma's loud voice came over.

"Don't be so prettier! We're not here for you, but for those top antique works of art, which are all national treasures! Who doesn't want to see them first?"

"Okay! It seems that I am being too sentimental! In the eyes of all of you, I guess I am just a dispensable little kid, insignificant!"

Ye Tian greeted Master Ma with a nod, and continued joking with everyone.

"Hahaha"

There was laughter again, and many people nodded in agreement.

"Okay! Don't be poor! Go in and set up the exhibition. We can't wait to appreciate those national treasures and antique artworks. Who wants to play tricks with you kid here!"

Old Jin said with a smile, his eyes were fixed on the trolley case on the luggage cart, his eyes were extremely bright, and he looked like he couldn't wait.

"That's right, hurry up! If you don't come back, we won't even be able to enter the gate of that exhibition hall, it's really well guarded!"

Elder Shan echoed, also very eagerly.

Although he had already admired these top-level antique works of art at the airport, it was not enough to appreciate this kind of national treasure once. He wished he could sleep with it every day!

"Come on! I'll go in and set up the exhibition right away. If it's later, I'm afraid it will cause public outrage!"

Ye Tian responded crisply, and then took the luggage cart and walked towards the exhibition hall.

The two lawyers following him, a dozen security personnel, and the police from the city bureau were all speechless and excited at the same time.

The performance of these top experts at the scene gave them a deeper understanding of the value of those antique artworks in several trolley boxes!

Absolutely priceless! It is estimated that each piece is a national treasure.

While feeling shocked, they instantly felt that the responsibility on their shoulders was much heavier.

There must be no mistakes in this security mission. Once those top-level antique artworks are damaged, even the slightest damage will probably cause vibrations, and the boards on them will be knocked down immediately.

And the ones who bear the board are undoubtedly the security personnel like myself, no one can escape!

Thinking of this, many security personnel at the scene immediately raised their alert level again, vigilantly observing the surrounding situation, ready to respond at any time!

When passing by several experts from the Palace Museum, Ye Tian turned around and asked with a smile:

"Shan Lao, Jin Lao, the few people at the entrance of the exhibition hall should be staff from the Forbidden City!"

As he spoke, he pointed to the people at the entrance of the exhibition hall.

"That's right, they all came here to help set up the exhibition, the antique artworks in your hands are too important and must not be damaged in any way.

These are the most professional cultural and cultural personnel with extremely rich experience. I believe they will be helpful to you and better protect and display those top antique artworks! "

Shan Lao nodded and gave an affirmative answer.

"I am very convinced that they are indeed the best cultural and museum personnel in China. Is there any more professional and prestigious cultural and museum institution in China than the Palace Museum? I can't think of another one!

Since they are here, I will not be polite! To be honest, I am really not at ease with the surprise training service staff of Beijing Hotel, thank you for your support! "

Ye Tian said a few polite words and expressed his gratitude.

While speaking, everyone has already walked to the entrance of the exhibition hall.

Before opening the door to enter the exhibition hall, Mr. Shan introduced the staff of the Forbidden City to Ye Tian. They were mainly from the Department of Ancient Paintings and Calligraphy and the Department of Artifacts, and they all had very rich work experience.

After getting acquainted with these staff members and greeting each other, Ye Tian pushed the door of the exhibition hall, and walked into the exhibition hall with those top-level antique artworks and everyone who followed.

And the staff of the major auction houses who were guarding near the door, as well as the few antique dealers who came here especially but were not invited! They were all blocked by security personnel!

The door of the exhibition hall will be closed again soon, and the exhibition will begin!
