Chapter 1701: Did God take care of me again
After completing the bank transfer, Ye Tian took the romanticism style oil painting and put it next to him.
Immediately afterwards, he said to the stall owner Dino:
"Tino, write a supporting document to avoid customs troubles. I will take this oil painting out of Italy and return to New York. It is bound to undergo customs inspection.
In addition, there is a request. Give me a telescopic painting tube. I will take this oil painting from the frame and put it in the painting tube to take it away. This is more convenient.
There are still many antique shops and antique stalls to visit, and we have to stay in Milan and Italy for a while, so it’s a bit of a hindrance to bring picture frames."
"Okay, Steven, I'll write you the supporting documents right away. As for the painting tube, there is it in the booth. You can pick one at random and count it as a gift."
Tino nodded in response, with a bright smile on his face, without thinking about it.
But how did he know Ye Tian's true intentions for doing this.
The secrets hidden under this oil painting are too important. Its discovery process must not have any flaws or doubts. Any flaw may cause huge troubles.
Because of this, Ye Tian decided to take apart the picture frame in public and make the entire discovery process public, so that everyone in the Milan Canal Antique Market could witness the miracle together.
In this way, even if the Italian government is jealous and greedy, it is difficult for them to play tricks and rob themselves in full view. They can't find any excuses.
In addition to disclosing this secret discovery process, Ye Tian also prepared a lot of backhands, which will be gradually displayed to ensure that his own interests are not violated!
Tino took out his pen and paper and began to write the supporting documents, excitedly.
Ye Tian reached out and took a telescopic painting tube from the booth and placed it next to the romantic oil painting.
In a blink of an eye, Tino wrote the supporting documents and handed them to Ye Tian.
At the same time, he also received the information that the payment was received.
At this point, the art transaction has been completely completed. The romantic oil painting and the secrets hidden by it belong to Ye Tian, and there is no doubt about it!
Ye Tian took a look at the supporting documents, and then handed them to Anderson next to him, asking him to review them, and put them away if there were no problems.
Then he smiled again and said:
"Tino, do you have any tools suitable for dismantling the frame? Borrow it and use it. I will dismantle the frame of this painting."
"No problem, I happen to have a set of tools here, which are used to set up the booth. It can also be used to disassemble the picture frame."
With that said, Tino pulled out a small toolbox from under his chair and handed it to Ye Tian.
Taking the toolbox, Ye Tian squatted down and began to disassemble the frame of this romantic painting.
Without exception, everyone on the scene looked at him and the romantic oil painting, and everyone was full of curiosity.
In a blink of an eye, the solid wood frame made more than a hundred years ago was opened by Ye Tian. The movements are very skillful and neat, without the slightest drag.
After successively removing the borders on the four sides and the several crosspieces on the back, Ye Tian successfully took off the solid wood drawing board with the oil painting stretched and carried it in his hand.
Immediately afterwards, he stood up, put the drawing board on a vacant table next to it, and began to disassemble the canvas from the drawing board.
He used a paper knife to lightly swipe the corner of the back of the drawing board a few times, and separated the canvas from the drawing board very skillfully and smoothly, and then used pliers to remove a few nails to fix the canvas.
Next, he began to disassemble the other corner of the drawing board.
In just two or three minutes, he took apart all the canvases on the four corners, pulled out all the nails used to fix the canvas on the drawing board, and threw it aside.
During the dismantling process, he also joked:
"Don't look at this romantic painter who is unknown, but the drawing board made is full of materials, very thick and strong, and it uses all black walnut, which is dry and resistant to decay!"
This seems to be no problem to others, but it is actually what Ye Tian has done to pave the way for the next step, so that everything can be logical.
While speaking, Ye Tian had completed the dismantling work and put the tools in his hand back into the toolbox.
Then, he took out a pair of white gloves from his pocket and put them on his hands, and then gently lifted a corner of the canvas, preparing to peel off the canvas from the solid wood drawing board.
With his movements, the corner of the canvas was lifted, revealing the specially treated solid wood drawing board underneath, everything looked normal.
However, only raising the canvas to a height of less than ten centimeters, Ye Tian's movements suddenly stopped.
"Hey! There is actually a piece of original color linen stretched under the canvas, and there seems to be a painting underneath it. The size does not look large. Could it be that God has once again favored the buddies?"
Ye Tian pretended to be surprised, and his face showed a pleasantly surprised expression.
Following his remarks, the scene immediately fryed.
"What? I heard that right, there is still a picture hidden under this romantic oil painting. Whose work could it be? Steven's luck is too bad!"
"I'm going! It's incredible, why did all the good things hit Steven's head? Like the legend, God will always stand with this guy.
If you deliberately hide a painting here, you don’t have to think about it. The painting hidden underneath must be extraordinary, and it is probably a top-notch artwork of pricelessness.”
There was a cry of exclamation on the scene. Everyone looked at Ye Tian and the corner of the canvas he had just raised. Everyone's eyes were extremely hot and full of curiosity.
They want to see through the romantic oil painting and see the painting hidden underneath.
Looking at Tino who received 8,000 euros, he was completely dumbfounded, stunned, staring at Ye Tian and the drawing board in his hand.
"Steven, let's uncover the above canvas, let everyone appreciate the painting that has been hidden for more than a hundred years, and see if it is the work of that master artist."
Someone shouted loudly, with anticipation and endless envy in his words.
This is undoubtedly the voice of everyone on the scene. Before the voice fell, there was a voice of agreement.
Ye Tian hadn't heard of these loud noises. He had already made plans and actions. How could it be disrupted by these loud noises.
He glanced at the crowd quickly, and then said to Cole:
"Cole, let the guys be more vigilant. I have a hunch that the paintings hidden under the linen must be extraordinary and may cause a huge sensation.
This is the Milan Canal Antique Market. The traffic is huge and the surrounding conditions are also very complicated. We must be very careful to prevent all accidents from happening."
"No problem, Steven, just leave the security to us. Without your permission, no one else should be near you and Betty"
Cole nodded in response, replied decisively and very excitedly.
Immediately afterwards, he began to act, commanding the security personnel under his command to increase their vigilance, and quickly established a solid line of defense around Ye Tian and the others.
Seeing a series of well-trained actions by them, many onlookers on the scene couldn't help taking a breath of air-conditioning, secretly shocked!
At the same time, everyone is even more curious about the painting that has been hidden for more than a hundred years. Which painting is it? How much is it worth?
Tino, who was shocked to the point of confusion before, finally woke up at this time.
He took a deep look at the drawing board that Ye Tian was holding in his hand, and then eagerly said:
"Steven, can you return this romantic oil painting to me? The price is whatever you want, even if the family goes bankrupt, I am willing."
Ye Tian looked at this buddy sympathetically, then shook his head very firmly and said:
"I'm very sorry, Tino, this transaction has been completed, and there is no problem in the transaction process. My personal lawyer and everyone on the scene are witnesses, and there is absolutely no possibility of going back!
You know, I am a billionaire and I am not short of money. Compared with money, I hope I can uncover that layer of linen with my own hands and see what treasure is hidden underneath! "
After speaking, he stopped paying attention to Tino, who was full of regret and despair. He turned his head and said to Anderson beside him:
"Anderson, take out your phone and shoot, take photos of everything that happens next, keep them as video evidence, and broadcast them to the Internet simultaneously.
I plan to make the discovery process of this secret public~www.wuxiaspot.com~ In this way, I believe it can avoid a lot of troubles, and also dispel the covetousness that some people shouldn't have."
"Okay, Steven, I will live webcast, let everyone in the world witness what happens next"
Anderson nodded in excitement, and immediately took out his mobile phone and got busy.
Hearing the conversation between the two of them and watching Anderson's actions, the expressions of the two Italian military policemen in the crowd couldn't help changing, becoming very ugly!
These **** American **** are extremely cunning and too difficult to deal with. Doesn't it make sense to guard against our cultural relic military police!
Just as these two guys were cursing secretly, Ye Tian turned his head and glanced at them, then smiled and nodded lightly, his intention was self-explanatory.
"I'm ready, Steven, you can uncover the canvas"
Anderson said with his mobile phone, the camera of the mobile phone was facing the drawing board in Ye Tian's hand, and the webcast had already begun.
