Chapter 2991: 2 hands ready
"Steven, this should be a building site from the Ptolemaic dynasty. Although it is old, it has nothing to do with the ancestors of the Israelites!"
Another ancient architectural site near Luxor, a tripartite joint exploration team is exploring here.
The person who introduced Ye Tian was an archaeologist from Columbia University, and what he was referring to was an old building fragment.
There are no words or marks on this building fragment, only a few lines. From its artistic style, some clues can still be seen.
Ye Tian looked at this fragment of building, then gently nodded and said:
"Yes, from the analysis of the remaining lines on this stone, it looks like a part of the Doric Column. The Doric Column architecture appeared in ancient Egypt during the Ptolemaic dynasty. It has nothing to do with the ancestors of the Israelites. !"
Hearing this, Joshua and several Israelis on the side were a little disappointed, but also helpless!
This ancient building site, or the ruins, is more appropriate. It is the last place to be explored by the three-party joint exploration team in Luxor.
If you still don’t find anything here, you can only leave and continue upstream along the Nile Valley to explore Solomon’s hidden treasures and the Ark of the Covenant.
The next exploration site is in Sudan. If the next exploration site is still not found, the tripartite joint exploration team will have to enter the Ethiopian plateau.
Compared with Egypt, which is relatively stable in politics, the situation in Sudan and Ethiopia is much more turbulent. Local armed forces are rampant, and even civil war is going on, which can be said to be very dangerous.
If possible, no one would want to enter these two turbulent countries.
It's a pity that things are counterproductive. Judging from the current situation, the tripartite joint exploration team will have to enter Sudan and eh Serbia!
For the Israeli government authorities, once the tripartite joint exploratory team enters Sudan and Ethiopia, the price they will pay for this joint exploratory operation will increase significantly!
In order to ensure the safety of the tripartite joint exploratory team, the Israeli government will have to agree to various demands, even some unreasonable demands, made by various forces in Sudan and Ethiopia.
At the same time, they have to send a large number of armed personnel, and even the army, to sit back and relax near the border of the two countries or on the Red Sea, and are always ready to dispatch a tripartite joint exploratory team for rescue!
If the tripartite joint exploratory team discovers Solomon’s treasure and the Ark of the Covenant in these two countries, it would be a very huge expense to only safely transfer the treasure and open up the relationship between the parties.
It might even lead to wars with these two countries.
Ye Tian didn't care about these.
After identifying the broken building, he glanced at Joshua and the others, who were full of frustration, and then turned and walked towards a few men not far away.
In the next exploration, everyone found something more, and also detected some metal objects buried deep underground.
It is a pity that after some research and analysis, it is determined that these findings have nothing to do with Solomon’s treasure and the Ark of the Covenant, and the metal objects buried deep in the ground have no excavation value!
When the time came to three o'clock in the afternoon, the exploration of this historical site was officially over. Everyone left this historical site and returned to Luxor by car, and found nothing!
Such a result has undoubtedly disappointed everyone.
After returning to the hotel, Ye Tian immediately called David and Matisse to their room and began to prepare for the next stage of exploration.
"Guys, the tripartite joint exploratory team's goals in Egypt have been explored today, but unfortunately we have not found the legendary treasure of Solomon and the Ark of the Covenant.
Next, we will enter Sudan and even Ethiopia. These two African countries are currently in a civil war. The situation is very chaotic and very dangerous.
If we are going to these two countries to explore the treasures, we must make some preparations, and even prepare to withdraw from these two countries at any time. The safety of everyone is the most important, and the treasure is the second thing.
Although the Israelis have done a lot of work, communicated with the governments and local armed forces of these two countries, and reached some agreements, I am still not at ease. We must be prepared.
Matis, you arrange for a few guys to enter Sudan and Ethiopia, explore the local situation, find out the details of the local armed forces, and explore several quick evacuation routes out!
On the border between these two countries, as well as the neighboring countries, and the Red Sea, we must arrange the manpower and equipment to respond. Once the situation is out of control, we immediately withdraw from these two countries.
When doing these things, you can ask the guys from Raytheon to help, you can also ask the forces supported by the United States, the embassy and the army to help, it is best not to let the Israelis know"
The voice fell, and Matisse immediately nodded in response:
"Okay, Steven, leave these things to us, don't worry!"
Next, several of them continued to discuss how to deal with the next exploration action, making various preparations!
About half an hour later, Matisse and David just left, and each became busy.
In the evening and early the next morning, several security personnel who had stayed in Cairo had appeared in Khartoum, the capital of Sudan, and Addes Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia, in various identities!
Then, those guys left the capitals of these two countries and went to several destinations of the tripartite joint exploration team!
At the same time, on the borders of Sudan and Ethiopia, as well as on the Red Sea, there have been many armed security personnel and various equipment at the hands of Ye Tian!
On the night of the exploratory mission in Luxor, Ahmed and the Deputy Minister of Culture of Egypt came together and found Ye Tian.
As soon as he entered his suite, Ahmed asked:
"Steven, your expedition in Luxor is over. Next, are you going to explore other places in Egypt, or are you going to leave Egypt? If you leave, when are you going to leave?"
Ye Tian looked at this old friend, then smiled and said:
"I can tell you, Ahmed, the tripartite joint exploratory team's exploration operations in Egypt have all ended. Next, we will leave Egypt and enter Sudan and Ethiopia in the upper reaches of the Nile.
But when we leave Luxor, it depends on the attitude of your Egyptian government. To make it clear, I must determine the ownership of that ancient Egyptian column before I can leave Luxor and continue exploring! "
Hearing this, Ahmed and the deputy minister immediately looked at each other, and then Ahmed came forward and said:
"Steven, after our report, Mr. President organized all parties to discuss seriously, and decided to accept your trading terms and exchange 500 million US dollars worth of gold for the ancient Egyptian column of notes!
There is no way, we need a large amount of gold reserves to maintain the stability of the monetary and financial system. We can only reluctantly give up our love and transfer the invaluable ancient Egyptian note column to you.
But, we need time, and we need to transport the ancient Egyptian note column to Cairo and display it in the Egyptian National Museum for a period of time. We also need to copy an identical note column!
The length of this time is about one year. After one year, you will be able to transport away the ancient Egyptian column and hand over 500 million US dollars worth of gold to us to complete the antique and cultural relics transaction."
Ye Tian's face immediately showed a color of surprise, without concealing it.
But he did not respond immediately, but thought for a moment, then smiled and said:
"If you can accept the trading terms I offered, that would be great. In this way, you get 500 million U.S. dollars worth of reserve gold, and I get the ancient Egyptian note column, and we all have something.
But for this amazing antique art transaction, I have a few conditions. These conditions must be met before this antique and cultural relics transaction can be completed. You can rest assured that these conditions are reasonable! "
Hearing this, Ahmed and the Deputy Minister of Culture of Egypt only felt their eyelids twitch, and there was an unpleasant feeling.
"Tell me about your conditions, Steven, we listen with all ears. If the conditions are reasonable, then we can naturally consider it."
Ahmed pretended to say calmly, still a little worried in his eyes.
"You are going to transport the ancient Egyptian note column to Cairo for display, and it will last a year, which means that within this year, the ancient Egyptian note column is completely out of my control!
In order to ensure that my 50% rights and interests are not harmed, should we sign an agreement? Use documents to confirm this antique and cultural relics transaction, after all, there is no proof to say!
There is one more thing. When we complete this antique and cultural relics transaction in a year, I will only pick up the gold and give it to you only when I transport the ancient Egyptian note column away! "
" Sign the document to confirm that the transaction is okay, but you plan to take away the ancient Egyptian column in a year, and then give us the gold, that will definitely not work!
What if you regret it? Transported the note post but didn't give us the gold. What if you can't find the gold? Who will guarantee our interests? "
Ahmed shook his head, not accepting this condition.
Ye Tian smiled, and said in a leisurely manner:
"This problem is very easy to solve. One year later, when I transport the ancient Egyptian column, I will buy five to six million US dollars in gold futures in the gold futures market, and hand over the futures contracts to you.
After I find the gold worth 500 million U.S. dollars and give it to you, you will return the gold futures contract to me. Then I will close the position. In this way, the interests of both of us will be protected! "
Hearing this, the two high-ranking Egyptian government officials couldn't help being stunned, and they didn't react for a long time.
After a while, Ahmad said with a wry smile:
"I almost forgot, you guy used to work on Wall Street. This method couldn't be easier for you. Well, as long as our interests can be ensured, we can accept this type of transaction!"
Next, Ye Tian discussed the details of the transaction with these two old friends, and asked David to draft an agreement on the spot and hand it to Ahmed.
About an hour later, Ahmed and the others left.
Immediately afterwards, Joshua, the Bishop of Kent, and Seaman and others came together to discuss the follow-up exploration with Ye Tian!
Regarding the turbulent situation in Sudan and Ethiopia, they entered these two countries to explore the treasures of Solomon and the Ark of the Covenant. They were also very worried about their safety!
One night passed quickly, and it was another day.
The tripartite joint exploratory team did not leave immediately, but prepared to stay in Luxor for two days and prepare various materials and equipment, and then set off to enter Sudan along the Nile Valley.
After breakfast, most of the joint exploration team left the hotel one after another, and under the **** of many security personnel, went to visit the Valley of the Kings on the west bank of the Nile.
Ye Tian and the others stayed in the hotel, waiting for another negotiation with the Egyptian government representatives, and then signed an agreement to confirm the transaction of the ancient Egyptian column.
Around eleven in the morning, after the representatives of the Supreme Council of Antiquities and the Ministry of Finance arrived in Luxor, the negotiations officially began.
The Egyptian government accepted the conditions offered by Ye Tian and agreed that he would exchange 500 million US dollars worth of gold for a 50% interest in the ancient Egyptian column. The transaction would be completed in one year.
Within this year, the ancient Egyptian column will be collected in the Egyptian National Museum and will be exhibited in public. Experts and scholars from all walks of life in Egypt can carry out various academic researches on it!
Not only that, the National Museum of Egypt can also copy one as it is, and it will continue to be displayed in the National Museum of Egypt for exhibitions and research!
Wait a year later~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Ye Tian gave out 500 million U.S. dollars of gold to the Egyptian government in order to transport away the ancient Egyptian column!
Although the transaction agreement was signed on the spot, it was not announced immediately, so as not to attract public doubts and opposition, and even a wave of protests and demonstrations!
Because the previously discovered Rommel treasure was swallowed by the Brave Fearless Exploration Company, the Egyptian government has attracted a lot of criticism, and it has become the handle of many opposition parties to attack the government!
Fortunately, the Egyptians also understand that the treasure of the Pyramid of Apophis I is more valuable. The fact that the treasure of Rommel was swallowed by Ye Tian alone did not cause too much trouble!
If the details of this antique and cultural relics transaction are leaked out, maybe they will be used to oppose the Egyptian government and the antique and cultural relics transaction!
This situation, no one wants to see it!
After signing the agreement, the Egyptians immediately took action, and in the afternoon they transported the ancient Egyptian column to Cairo.
Ye Tian, who had dealt with this priceless treasure, also relaxed, temporarily set aside the exploration of Solomon’s treasure, and took David and the others to visit the Valley of the Kings!
The short rest period passed quickly. Two days later, the tripartite joint exploratory team left Luxor and continued along the Nile Valley to the upper reaches of Sudan!
