Chapter 3062: The plan can't keep up with the changes
This highly anticipated small private auction went on very smoothly.
In addition to the few top antique artifacts he planned to keep in his collection, other gold and silver treasures and antique artifacts from this part of Solomon's treasure were photographed by Ye Tian.
Moreover, the transaction prices of these gold and silver treasures and antique cultural relics are very ideal, bringing him an astronomical astonishing wealth.
Especially the gold statues of the Three Kings of Israel, their transaction prices are even more shocking, almost completely shocking everyone's eyes on the scene.
The gold statue of King Saul was sold for US$600 million, the gold statue of King David was sold for US$800 million, and the transaction price of King Solomon was US$1 billion, each higher than the other.
This sort of price coincides with the historical status of the three kings of Israel.
Although Saul was the founder of the Kingdom of Israel and the first king in Israel's history, his historical status was not as good as the two latecomers.
King David was the second king of the Kingdom of Israel. It was he who established the unified United Kingdom of Israel and set the capital of Jerusalem.
He is also known as the beloved of God and the king most worshipped and loved by the Jews.
And David's son, King Solomon, was the king who pushed the United Kingdom of Israel to the pinnacle.
That was the culmination of Israel's golden age, and he built the Temple of Solomon with one hand.
In the history of Israel, in the eyes of all Jews in the world, King Solomon has the highest historical position!
The sizes of the three golden statues are also arranged in this order.
The golden statue of King Saul is the smallest, the golden statue of King David is slightly larger, and the golden statue of King Solomon is the largest.
Like the golden statue of King Saul, the golden statue of King David and the golden statue of King Solomon were sold at the starting price.
There were no other buyers competing with the Israeli government, which turned the auction of the three gold statues into a formality and ended soon.
No one wants to offend the Israeli government and all Jews, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble!
Their retribution must be reported, and it can be said that everyone knows.
For this situation, Ye Tian had already expected it.
The starting prices of these three priceless treasures were slightly higher than the reserve price set in his mind, so there was no problem with the transaction.
In addition to these three priceless treasures, the Israeli government has also taken a lot of valuable antiques and cultural relics, as well as many dazzling gold and silver treasures.
The top museums, famous collectors, and a few super-rich people from Israel are very generous and decisive in their moves, and they scatter a lot of banknotes.
The representatives of the Vatican government and museums, as well as the top museums in the United States, many top collectors and super-rich people, and those top art dealers, are not far behind.
They all competed to bid, and their eyes were red, just to grab an antique relic that was once enshrined in the first temple!
Only Ethiopians are more lonely and depressed.
They didn't have that much money and lacked courage. They competed with others on the spot, and they could only watch those valuable antiques, cultural relics and gold and silver treasures fall into the hands of others.
No way, this is the so-called poor people short, thin horses and long hairs!
But they are not for nothing!
As Ye Tian said before, the other three parties did not do everything right, and swept away all the antique relics and gold and silver treasures from Solomon's Treasure!
And Ye Tian, who presided over the auction, also gave some tips when appropriate.
The other three parties all understood and immediately cooperated.
In this case, the Ethiopians still photographed a few good antique artifacts, which is a small gain!
And their biggest gains are the religious sacred sites deep underground in Noah's Ark Church and the immovable antique cultural relics.
With this religious sacred place, they can earn a lot of money from the Jews in the future, and it can be regarded as revenge for being looted today!
By the end of this small private auction, it was already around one noon.
Except for the Ethiopians, the governments of the other three countries and many successful bidders all chose to make the delivery at the first time and complete the last process of the auction.
Of course, this was also specifically requested by Ye Tian, lest the night would have many dreams.
With the start of the auction settlement, the Brave Fearless Exploration Company’s bank account immediately flooded with a huge sum of funds, which was enough to make people crazy.
At the same time that these auction funds were received, Ye Tian also delivered those valuable antiques, cultural relics and gold and silver treasures to many successful bidders.
By about three o'clock in the afternoon, the delivery work has been basically completed.
Only the few auctions taken by Ethiopians have not yet been delivered, but Ye Tian allowed them to take away those antiques and cultural relics.
These antique relics are no longer important, and he is not at all worried about Ethiopians not paying!
If the Ethiopian really did this, he would dare to withhold the taxes that should be given to the Ethiopian government.
The tax generated by this small private auction is an amazingly huge wealth that the Ethiopian government will never give up.
After the settlement procedures were completed, everyone did not leave immediately, but continued to stay at the gate of Noah's Ark Church.
After a while, several Chinook heavy transport helicopters and several escorting Black Hawk helicopters flew in the sky.
On the fuselages of these helicopters, either the US military logo or the Israeli military logo is printed, and they are fully armed and murderous.
They are here to transfer the treasure, and they are going to transport the antiques and gold and silver treasures in Solomon's treasure immediately, directly to Addis Ababa, and then transfer them.
In addition to these helicopters in the air, there is also a convoy of escorts armed to the teeth on the ground to protect this part of Solomon's treasure.
When the Chinook heavy transport helicopters landed on the grass next to Noah's Ark Church, Ye Tian just happened to walk out of Noah's Ark Church with Joshua.
"Joshua, I entrust you to transport the antiques and artworks that belong to me to Tel Aviv, and my staff will receive these antiques and artworks in Tel Aviv.
Next, my subordinates will send these antique cultural relics and artworks to Beijing. It will not be long before they will appear in my private museum for everyone to visit and appreciate."
Ye Tian said with a smile.
Looking at Joshua again, his expression was a little helpless.
"Steven, you guy is so cunning. In this way, you will pass all the risks to us, you don't have to take any risks, just wait for the results.
According to my opinion, you might as well sell us all these antique relics and artworks from Solomon's Treasures. The price is absolutely satisfactory to you. Wouldn't it be more trouble-free? "
Ye Tian smiled and shook his head, and rejected the proposal.
"For me, money doesn't make much sense anymore. It's just a set of numbers in a bank account. It doesn't matter if it is more or less.
I value these antique relics and works of art from Solomon’s treasures and not related to religion. They are more rare and have higher value.
It is a pity that there are too few such antique cultural relics and artworks, and the treasures are more religious-related antique cultural relics and artworks. I have no intention of collecting them.
As for the issue of escort, I just borrowed the east wind from the Israeli government. As a partner, with such good conditions, I naturally want to use it."
Hearing this, Joshua and the others around him rolled their eyes.
"You are extremely greedy guy, you are so embarrassed to say that you don't like money. Who was it just now that killed everyone? That guy seems to be you, right?"
Next, everyone began to transfer this part of Solomon's treasure.
The portable safes and metal suitcases that contained antiques, cultural relics and artworks, and contained gold and silver treasures, were all carried to several Chinook heavy transport helicopters.
Subsequently, these Chinook heavy transport helicopters roared.
They flew straight to Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia, under the **** of several Black Hawk helicopter gunships.
The heavily armed security convoy on the ground also set off at the same time, closely following the helicopters in the air, and swiftly heading for Addis Ababa.
What's more, the Israelis made arrangements all the way from Gondar to Addis Ababa, and even in the air, just in case!
After watching the helicopter **** team leave, Ye Tian turned his head to look at everyone around him, and said with a smile:
"Gentlemen, once again welcome everyone to come and participate in my small private auction. Now everyone can leave. I suggest that you don't stay in Gondar for a long time.
In Gondar now, the security situation is not very good. Those guys who came for Solomon’s treasure must be extremely disappointed now, and may be angry with everyone."
"Hahaha"
Now there was a burst of laughter, and everyone laughed.
...
Just as Ye Tian expected.
The guys who came for Solomon's treasure, watched the Chinook heavy transport helicopters taking off from the Fasilidas castle complex, and gritted their teeth with hatred.
"Fak! These cunning **** actually did not hesitate to use the military helicopters of the US and Israeli troops to transport this part of Solomon's treasure. We are completely out of the picture!"
"What the **** is he! There are so many valuable gold and silver treasures and antique cultural relics, but none of them belong to us. It's really unwilling!"
While swearing angrily, these guys are very helpless.
At this point, they can only focus on the treasure left over from World War II and the remaining Solomon treasure that may be discovered later!
Compared with these guys guarding around the castle group, Cook and his men who finally rushed to Gondar after all the difficulties are even more depressed.
They had just entered the city of Gondar, and the helicopter formation escorting Solomon's treasure happened to whizz by over their heads.
Looking at the flying helicopter formation, Cook was so angry that he vomited blood and died.
"Fuck! I hate Steven, this **** bastard, why do all the good things fall on this bastard's head? I can't even catch a hair, this **** is just Lao Tzu's nemesis!
Solomon’s Treasure, and the treasure left over from World War II, it took them only a long time to come to Gondar, and they discovered two amazing treasures. We have been here for more than a month, but we have found nothing! "
Just as Cook cursed and complained wildly, seven or eight Ethiopian military and police vehicles suddenly galloped from different directions, immediately surrounding their convoy.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of Ethiopian military police with live ammunition jumped from the vehicles, holding automatic rifles, and aimed at Cook and others sitting in the car.
Seeing this scene, Cook and others didn't know where they were, and they were calculated again.
And the one who calculates himself, besides the **** Steven, who else?
In the face of this situation, Cook was frustrated and almost mad, but could not do anything.
They can only raise their hands obediently, slowly get out of the car, and then lie down on the ground and accept the inspection by the Ethiopian military and police.
Fortunately, this is Amhara State. They are cooperating with the Amhara State government to explore a legendary gold mine in the nearby mountains.
With this identity as a cover, they don't have to worry about being thrown into prison.
However, the humiliation of frequent body searches and constant blackmail has made each of them angry.
Since leaving Lalibela, they have been searched no less than 20 times, and the Ethiopian military and police who have been blocking the way have been blackmailed seven or eight times!
This makes each of them angry, but helpless.
...
The helicopter formation escorting Solomon’s Treasure did not encounter any trouble and arrived at Addis Ababa International Airport at around 8pm.
Immediately afterwards, those portable safes and metal suitcases containing Solomon's treasure were transferred to two military transport planes.
The two military transport planes belong to the U.S. Army and the Israeli Army respectively.
The reason why they appeared at Addis Ababa International Airport was to **** Solomon's treasure.
After the treasure was transferred, the two military transport planes roared up quickly and flew to New York and Tel Aviv respectively.
Ye Tian, Joshua and others who were in the hotel heard on the phone that both military transport planes had taken off smoothly. They all breathed out and finally relaxed.
Next, they began to discuss the next step of the tripartite joint exploration team.
"Joshua, as far as I know, because of the previous elections, the relationship between Tigray State and the Ethiopian central government is rapidly deteriorating, and war may break out at any time.
In particular, the People’s Front, which is arbitrarily recruiting troops to prepare for the war, and the tripartite joint exploratory team entering Tigray State at such a sensitive time is bound to face great risks.
There should be no problems with the Ethiopian government, but have you communicated well with the People’s Front? Without the permission and cooperation of the People's Front, we will be unable to make any progress in Tigray State! "
Ye Tian said in a deep voice, his face a little dignified.
Hearing these words, everyone's face changed, and everyone was a little worried.
After pondering for a moment, Joshua responded.
"We have an agreement with the Ethiopian government. Under normal circumstances, the Ethiopian government should not take the initiative to tear up the agreement, but the situation in Tigray State has changed beyond our expectations.
In the past few days, we have been communicating with all parties in Tigray State. The focus is on the promotion of the People’s Front. We have also achieved certain results. In order to reach an agreement with the People’s Front, we have promised them some conditions.”
Hearing this ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Ye Tian and David immediately looked at each other and nodded lightly.
They guessed in an instant what those conditions were put forward by the People's Array.
It must be a large number of munitions and supplies, which is what Tirenqian needs most at the moment.
Without armaments, what would they use to confront the Ethiopian government forces?
After a short pause, Joshua continued:
"One more point, when the joint exploratory team enters Tigray State, the number of representatives of the Ethiopian government will be restricted, and Ethiopian military and police personnel will not be allowed to enter Tigray State.
Regarding these matters, we are negotiating with the Ethiopian government and Tigray State to resolve them, hoping to come up with a relatively reasonable plan that is acceptable to all parties."
Next, we continue to discuss the next course of action.
The rapid changes in the domestic situation in Ethiopia, especially the deterioration of the situation in Tigray State, disrupted some of the original plans and had to temporarily adjust to adapt to the changes.
