Chapter 1790: 1 havoc
"Xiaotian, we successfully received the antique works of art you sent at the Capital Airport, and sent them to the Forbidden City overnight, where they were kept, very safe.
Until tomorrow morning, your aunt will take out those Chinese antique artworks and display them in your private exhibition hall according to your classification.
Your personal lawyer, security guards and police will **** the wooden crates containing the fragments of Athena to the Financial Street and store them in the vault."
As soon as Ye Tian and the others left the Castro antique shop, my sister-in-law called in, reporting the situation in Beijing. Everything went smoothly!
At this time, in the armored car of the Knight XV that Ye Tian and Betty rode in, there were two more valuable top art works.
Needless to say, these two top art pieces are from the Castro antique shop that just left.
Ye Tian faithfully practiced the principle of thief not going empty, and was not polite at all, and ransacked the Castro antique shop.
Ye Tian laughed softly when he thought of the very sad eyes of sister and brother Alexandra and Alberto when they just left the antique shop.
After listening to my sister's report, Ye Tian immediately smiled and said:
"Sister, regarding the fragments of the statue of Athena, you must strictly guard the secret and not disclose it to anyone. Once this news is leaked, it will definitely cause a huge sensation.
When you deposit the statue of Athena in the vault on Financial Street, I will post a reward on the Internet, offering rewards for finding the remaining fragments of the statue in Italy, in Greece, and even the world.
Once the reward is announced, it will definitely attract countless attentions. Many people will inevitably doubt that these idol fragments come from the famous sculpture and deserve such a big fanfare.
At that time, I guess there will be everything. If people know that what I am looking for is the fragment of the Athena statue, it will be a big trouble. If it causes a huge sensation, I will have to pay a huge price.
Even if someone finds a finger of the statue of Athena, he will dare to pay a sky-high price of tens of millions of dollars by then, but this may not be able to collect all, especially important parts such as the head.
The Italian government and the Greek government will never watch me collect fragments of the Athena idol. They will definitely set up various obstacles, sniping wildly, and even half-heartedly!
Once the fragments of the head or other important parts of the statue of Athena fall into the hands of the Italian or Greek governments, it will be completely over, and it is impossible to take those fragments again for how much money! "
"I know, Xiaotian, don't worry, we must keep it strictly confidential! Except for a few adults in our family, I didn't tell anyone about this. Even your aunt did not know the existence of fragments of the statue of Athena!"
The sister-in-law said vowedly, with a serious tone.
Then he told my sister-in-law a few more words. Ye Tian ended the call and hung up the phone.
Before he put his mobile phone in his pocket, the old man of the Forbidden City called Shan Lao, and then several other old gentlemen from the Forbidden City called him one by one.
Without exception, these old gentlemen all went to the airport to pick up the goods and saw the returning batch of Chinese antique works of art. They were naturally ecstatic!
On the phone, these old gentlemen did not hesitate to spit on Ye Tian's head, each with a bright lotus tongue, only to praise him as rare in the sky and absolutely nothing on the ground.
Listening to this crazy compliment that is irrelevant and completely devoid of principle, Ye Tian feels that his old face is a little feverish at the same time as his heart is refreshed, so embarrassed!
While talking, Ye Tian and the others went to the street where another famous antique shop was located, and continued to frantically sweep the antique art market in Rome, sweeping all the slightly valuable and neglected antique art!
As time went by, the twilight gradually enveloped the whole of Rome.
When the lanterns first appeared, Ye Tiancai announced the end of today's raid on the Roman antique art market and returned to the Vatican.
Until this time, almost all professionals in the field of antique art collection in Rome took a sigh of relief and relaxed a little.
Next, these guys began to count their losses, the losses of Rome, and even Italy as a whole.
After a rough inventory, these Italians finally understood what happened to them today, the whole of Rome, even the whole of Italy, and what happened to them today!
It was a catastrophe, enough to make everyone sad and completely crazy.
After understanding this result, many places in Rome immediately sounded hysterical and crazy curses, resounding through the night sky of Rome.
As for the object of the curse, who else but Ye Tian!
At this moment, Ye Tian has become a public enemy in the field of Italian antique art collection. Everyone gritted their teeth with hatred and wished to tear him up and feed the dogs!
At this time, Ye Tian was sitting in the back seat of the Cavaliers XV armored car, chatting with Betty, enjoying the beautiful scenery outside the car window, and heading straight to the Vatican!
About half an hour later, Ye Tian and his convoy arrived at the edge of St. Peter's Square, stopped by the side of the road, and joined end to end, forming a tall and solid arc-shaped defense line.
Like the previous few times, Ye Tian and the others planned to walk through St. Peter's Square and return to their residence in the Vatican Gardens, while the convoy took another entrance and went directly to the underground parking lot.
As soon as the convoy stopped, Cole and the others quickly got out of the car and became vigilant.
After a while, Ye Tian took Betty and got out of the car and landed on the edge of St. Peter's Square, near the Vatican.
Immediately afterwards, a few old friends who had been waiting here quickly greeted them, everyone's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, like a dead father!
These old friends are not others, but Giovanni, the Italian Ministry of Culture, and the members of the Historical Heritage Protection Committee.
Why did they come, Ye Tian had a clear heart.
Except for that painting by Caravaggio, what else can it be because of?
as predicted!
After coming to the front, greeted each other, and said a few nonsense nonsense, Giovanni got into the subject.
"Steven, I heard that you found a painting by Caravaggio on Coronari Avenue and bought that painting at a very low price. Is this true?
According to what you told the antique shop owner Rossini at the time, that classicist painting was an important work of art in the transition from the Renaissance to the Baroque period, and it is of great research value!
We want to see and appraise that painting with our own eyes. If it is really Caravaggio's masterpiece and has a special meaning, I hope you can keep that painting in Italy! "
Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately chuckled softly and showed an expression like this.
He glanced at these old friends, then smiled and said:
"Giovanni, you are worthy of the Italian cultural relics gendarme. The news is very well-informed. Yes, I did find a masterpiece by Caravaggio, and the meaning of that painting is very special.
For my own vision, I am extremely confident, and I can never get it wrong! If you want to appreciate and appraise that painting, of course there is no problem, but not tonight, it will be fine at around two o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
Soon after I took the classicist painting this morning, many top collectors, super rich, and antique art appraisal experts received news and called me.
The purpose of everyone calling is basically the same. They all hope to appreciate the painting. Several top collectors and super-rich people, as well as two museums, all expressed their willingness to buy.
Seeing this, I decided to hold a small-scale appreciation meeting at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, inviting all the friends who called me to come to the Vatican to appreciate and appraise this special painting.
In addition to this masterpiece by Caravaggio, there will also be some other valuable top antique artworks at the appreciation meeting for everyone to enjoy. If you are interested, you can also buy it on the spot.
You can also come and participate. As for whether Caravaggio's masterpieces can stay in Italy, it depends on the performances of Italian collectors, super rich and museums participating in the meeting~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I am happy to see it! "
Hearing this, Giovanni and the others couldn't help rolling their eyes and complaining to themselves.
This **** New York bastard! "Lisa Gladini" has only been sold for a few days at a sky-high price, and he actually picked up the ideas of the top collectors and super rich again. It's greed without limits!
After chatting for a few more words, Ye Tian left, took Betty across the border, walked into St. Peter's Square, and strolled towards the Vatican Gardens.
Seeing them leaving in the darkness, Giovanni gritted his teeth and whispered:
"Fortunately, this **** Steven is about to leave Rome. If he is allowed to stay in Rome again, I am worried that the whole Rome will be looted by this bastard!"
"Who said no! It's heartbreaking to think about how many valuable top antique artworks he has swept wildly over this period of time!"
A guy from the Italian Historical Heritage Protection Committee echoed, with a painful expression on his face.
