Chapter 2275: A flood of Arab super rich
Just as Ye Tian expected, when he publicly announced the results of today's exploration at the press conference and displayed those medieval Arab antique relics, it immediately detonated the entire banquet hall.
Especially the appearance of Saladin's golden cavalry helmet, which directly caused an almost crazy exclamation at the scene, stunned everyone.
Everything that happened in this banquet hall, as well as the pictures and other related information of those medieval Arab antique relics, was quickly disseminated by many media reporters on the scene.
Soon, these news, like a hurricane, directly swept the entire world and attracted countless attention.
Especially in the world of Mooselin, these news caused a huge sensation and made many people crazy about it.
The press conference has not yet ended. The relevant departments of Egypt, Iraq, Iran, Syria and other countries have issued public statements on their own, claiming those antique cultural relics that are closely related to their national history.
Ye Tian naturally didn't bother to respond to these demands, so he didn't hear it.
Not only these Muslim countries, after the press conference, the Deputy Minister of Culture of Portugal also made a request euphemistically, hoping to keep these priceless top antique cultural relics in Portugal.
Due to the previously signed agreement, the Portuguese government cannot forcibly detain these antiques and cultural relics, nor does it want to offend Ye Tian and the Vatican, so they can only negotiate with them with a low profile.
Ye Tian told the deputy minister that if Portugal wants to keep these priceless top antiques, it will participate in the private auction to be held tomorrow and compete with the other top collectors.
Upon hearing this, the Deputy Minister of Culture of Portugal was so angry that he almost vomited blood on the spot, but he was helpless.
Who told Ye Tian to find these treasures, and these treasures belonged to him, the Portuguese government could only stare at them, but couldn't take these top antique relics as their own.
Of course, if Ye Tian auctioned off these top antique cultural relics in Tomar, the Portuguese government would still receive a huge tax, not nothing!
After the press conference, Ye Tian and the others returned upstairs with the four boxes of medieval Arab antiques, and they never came down one night.
This night, Ye Tian and the many security personnel under his team are completely waiting for them. They are always on the highest alert and are ready to fight.
Fortunately, nothing happened overnight, but in a blink of an eye it was the next morning.
After breakfast early in the morning, Ye Tian and the others were chatting in the living room, and the bishop of Kent knocked on the door and walked into this suite.
He told Ye Tian that the Pope had left the Vatican with a large number of senior Vatican officials and the Swiss Guard, and would soon arrive in Lisbon, Portugal, to take a seat for the subsequent joint exploration operations.
Ye Tian is naturally happy to see the pope's arrival. This was originally his proposal.
Soon, the time came to ten in the morning.
The first top collector who was invited to participate in the private auction has already arrived at Tomar and was taken by Jason to Ye Tian's luxurious suite.
This top collector is from Egypt, relatively close to Portugal, and he is the most eager to get the Saladin Golden Cavalry helmet, so he came the fastest!
As soon as he walked into the suite, the old friend left his two companions and walked quickly to Ye Tian, and said excitedly:
"Good morning, Steven, I am very glad to see you again. Congratulations on your discovery of another treasure and collection of many valuable top antique artifacts. Your luck is so good and enviable!"
Ye Tian shook hands with this old friend, and said with a smile:
"Good morning, Yusuf, long time no see, your complexion looks very good, refreshed, very happy to see you here, welcome to Tomar, welcome you to participate in my private auction.
My luck has always been good, and this time is no exception. Deep underground in the main church of Tomar, we were lucky to find a treasure, which is part of the famous treasure of the Knights Templar in history."
After a few polite greetings, Yusuf couldn't wait to get into the topic.
" After receiving your call yesterday, everyone in our family attached great importance to it. A family meeting was held as soon as possible to discuss the transaction with you and make a decision as quickly as possible.
I came to Portugal this time to represent the Mansour family of Egypt. We want to purchase the Mamluk Golden Cavalry Helmet of the great Saladin and several other antique artifacts related to Egypt.
Saladin is the greatest hero in Egyptian history, and the greatest hero in the entire Muslin world. The golden cavalry helmet he once used should return to Egypt and the Muslin world.
Steven, can you show me Saladin’s golden cavalry helmet? Although I saw its pictures in the news report last night, I want to see the real thing more, appreciate it, and I should say admiration! "
Ye Tian shook his head slightly, and directly rejected the old friend.
"Don't worry, Yusuf, you can go to the hotel room for a break, and then go out to enjoy the view of Tomar. It is also good to set aside time for everyone to appreciate it before my private auction starts.
At that time, I will take out the part of medieval Arab antiques that are ready for auction for all the top collectors participating in this private auction to appreciate and appraise. Then, the private auction will begin.
Because the auctions are all medieval Arab antiques, the top collectors invited to participate in this private auction are mostly from the Middle East and Arab regions, and you know many of them.
Such as Nasef from Egypt, Crown Prince Salman from Saudi Arabia, Princess Mayasha and Prince Hassan from Qatar, and other top collectors from Arab countries in the Middle East.
Because of the large number of people, I can’t show off those medieval Arab antiques for every person. Then I don’t want to do anything. I can’t do anything about it, so I can only ask for your understanding.”
Hearing these words, what else can the Egyptian super rich say?
He shrugged his shoulders with a wry smile, and said nonchalantly:
"Well, Steven, I'll go back to the hotel room and take a rest. Before your private auction starts, we will appreciate and appraise the golden cavalry helmet of the great Saladin.
I can see that the Middle Eastern Arab rich and top collectors invited to come this time will surely be slaughtered by you if they want to take down their favorite antiques."
Ye Tian smiled softly, and said triumphantly:
"Let's have something for everyone~www.wuxiaspot.com~ No one suffers. You get those valuable medieval Arab antiques. I get the corresponding huge wealth. The best of both worlds!
Again, do you still have to thank me? If I hadn’t found these top antique relics, they would probably be buried deep underground forever. You wouldn’t even have a chance to see them.”
"Yes, in this matter, we should really thank you guys for discovering those priceless treasures and allowing them to reappear in the world!"
Yousuf nodded slightly and said with a sincere tone.
After a few more conversations, Yusuf left, and he would book the hotel.
Not long after the Egyptian super-rich left, several old friends came together to visit Ye Tian.
They are the regular customers of Ye Tian who have just met at the Dubai World Cup not long ago, Princess Mayasha and Prince Hassan of the royal family of Qatar, and Crown Prince Salman of Saudi Arabia!
Like Yusuf, who just left, these old friends wanted to see Saladin’s golden cavalry helmet when they saw Ye Tian and after they said hello, they wanted to admire it!
However, Ye Tian rejected them and asked them to wait patiently, waiting for the auction to start, and then appreciating and appraising them with other collectors.
As time goes by, more and more Arab super-rich and top collectors have come to Tomar, and this small historical city has become more and more lively, attracting countless attentions.
