? It's another day, the sun is shining, and it is a good day to visit.
Just after nine o'clock in the morning, Ye Tian and the others left the Regina Hotel and drove to the Eiffel Tower on the Champ de Mars on the south bank of the Seine River to visit this landmark in Paris.
Although the backbone members of the "Pink Panther" publicly threatened yesterday, Ye Tian did not intend to change his schedule, let alone show the slightest timidity.
He still went his own way, followed the established plan for the tour, did not make any changes, and did not take the threat of the'Pink Panther' seriously!
Deep down in his heart, he even hopes to play against the guys of the ‘Pink Panther’ and fight on the streets of Paris. That’s fun!
Of course, the necessary preparations are still to be done, otherwise, wouldn't it be an idiot!
Since yesterday evening, Mattis and other security personnel have been on high alert. Everyone is fully armed, armed with guns, and ready to fight at any time.
The Regina Hotel where everyone is staying, whether inside or outside, on the top of the building, or underground, is closely monitored. There is no blind spot for monitoring, and no one wants to infiltrate.
Ye Tian himself is the same. When he is in the hotel, his short assault rifle and body armor are within reach. Once in danger, he can be armed at any time and go into battle quickly!
When he left the hotel in the morning, he wore a coat covering his armpit holster and pistol on his back, and he carried a backpack with a body armor and a short assault rifle.
Under his trousers, he tied a sharp German combat knife.
From the appearance of his costume, he is not much different from other tourists. There is no threat, but he is armed to the teeth!
Fortunately, Paris has a pleasant climate at the turn of summer and autumn. The temperature is only in the early 20s. Even if you wear a jacket, you don't feel hot at all.
Except for Ye Tian and the others, the Paris police are also on high alert.
Since the ‘Pink Panther’ guys appeared yesterday afternoon, the Paris police immediately dispatched additional manpower to keep an eye on Ye Tian and their every move, not daring to relax at all.
When leaving the Regina Hotel in the morning, two groups of Paris police officers drove two police cars and two vehicles with civilian license plates, and immediately followed them, following Ye Tian and the others.
At this time, the high level of the Paris police is nervous, lest Ye Tian and the "Pink Panthers" are violent on the streets of Paris, and no one can bear the result.
While keeping an eye on Ye Tian and the others, the Paris police also mobilized various forces and began to secretly search for the ‘Pink Panther’ members throughout the city, trying to eliminate the danger in the bud.
Of course, Ye Tian and the others are happy to see the results of the Paris police action. Even if the police can't get rid of the ‘Pink Panther’ guys, it’s good to cause them some trouble!
When the convoy arrived at the Plaza de Mars, Matisse first contacted several security personnel who came here to investigate the situation. After confirming safety, he said to Ye Tian through the wireless headset:
"Steven, you can get off the car. The scene is basically safe. No traces of the guys from the'Pink Panther' were found. Several important places on the God of War are monitored by our people.
The greenery around the square is very good, and there are many tourists. Those tall trees and tourists can completely block all the sniper routes, and it is impossible to sniper remotely.
If the ‘Pink Panthers’ want revenge, they can only get a chance if they are close to us, otherwise there is no possibility. Once they get close, they will undoubtedly find their way! "
"Okay, Matisse, let's get off now. The guys in the'Pink Panther' don't know our itinerary, so naturally it is impossible to come here in advance to set up an ambush.
Even if they want to come here for revenge, it will be something later. When our visit is over and we are ready to leave the Eiffel Tower, it will be the most dangerous time."
With that said, Ye Tian stretched out his hand to open the door, took Betty out of the Mercedes-Benz bulletproof SUV, and stood on the side of the road before the victory over the square.
As soon as they stood firmly on the ground, they saw the towering Eiffel Tower standing on the Champ de Mars at a glance, which was very shocking.
The Eiffel Tower, standing on the Champ de Mars on the south bank of the Seine River in Paris, France, was built in 1889. It was once the tallest building in the world and named after the famous architect who designed it, Gustave Eiffel.
This is a world-famous building, one of the cultural symbols of France, one of the landmarks of the city of Paris, and the tallest building in Paris. It is loved by the French as the "Iron Lady".
The Eiffel Tower is 300 meters high, the top antenna is 24 meters high, and the total height is 324 meters. It is composed of many scattered steel components and looks like a pile of model components.
The total number of steel components that make up the Eiffel Tower is as high as 18,038, weighing 10,000 tons, a total of 7 million holes were drilled, 12,000 metal parts, and 2.5 million rivets were used.
Except for the four feet at the bottom of the tower, which are made of reinforced concrete, the entire Eiffel Tower is made of steel. According to statistics, a total of 7,300 tons of wrought iron is used!
The Eiffel Tower is divided into three floors, 57.6 meters, 115.7 meters and 276.1 meters above the ground. There are restaurants on the first and second floors, and an observation deck on the third floor. There are 1711 steps from the tower to the top of the tower.
In the nineteenth century when technology was relatively backward, the construction of such a large-scale iron tower was definitely a miracle in the history of architecture.
Once completed, this iron tower has become one of the famous landmarks of Paris, attracting about three million tourists every year to climb to the top of the tower and overlook the beauty of Paris.
‘Observation Tower of the Capital’ is another French term for the Eiffel Tower.
Standing on this famous iron tower, you can overlook the whole of Paris. If the weather is fine and the vision is clear, you can look far away, even 60 kilometers away.
If you want to enjoy close views, the 57-meter-high lowest observation deck is undoubtedly the best place.
From there, you can see the Charlottenburg Palace in the north, the Seine River quietly flowing at the foot of the tower, the large lawn of the Champ de Mars in the south and the ancient buildings of the French Military Academy. It is an unforgettable landscape.
On the upper level, there is a 115-meter middle observation deck, where you can see the most beautiful vistas.
Standing in the middle-level observation deck, looking around, the pale yellow Arc de Triomphe tower, the Louvre in the green shade, and the white Montmartre Sacred Heart Church are clearly visible and colorful.
If you climb the tower in the evening, you can see that the night is picturesque, the lights are like brocades, and the green trees reflect the trees. The street lights are intertwined like a net, like a net of beads after the rain.
"Wow! The Eiffel Tower is so huge, far more shocking than what you see on TV!"
Betty looked up at the towering Eiffel Tower, sighing constantly.
Ye Tian chuckled softly, then nodded and said:
"It is true. This tower is indeed very visually impactful, but the scenery above it is even more beautiful. From the observation deck above, you can see the most beautiful Paris, absolutely not to be missed!"
After speaking, he walked out with Betty and walked to the Eiffel Tower in front.
Matisse and the others followed closely, scattered around, staring at the surrounding situation vigilantly, ready to respond.
One morning passed quickly, and it was noon in a blink of an eye.
After coming down from the Eiffel Tower and visiting the Champ de Mars, Ye Tian and the others were about to leave the Victory Square and go to the pre-ordered restaurant for lunch.
At this moment, Ye Tian's cell phone rang suddenly, and it was Pierre, the manager of the Swan restaurant in Brussels, Belgium.
Seeing Laixian, Ye Tian immediately showed a smug smile on his face, and the event of taking down the Swan Restaurant was finally in sight!
The Belgian must have turned the swan restaurant to the bottom and found nothing in the end, so he called himself, either to find out, or to ask if he would like to buy the building!
After the phone was connected, Pierre immediately turned to the topic after a few words of greeting.
"Mr. Steven, you have said before that you want to acquire the Renaissance-style building where the Swan Restaurant is located. Is this true? Or are you just saying it casually?"
"Of course it is true. I have not changed my mind now. I still want to acquire the old building in Renaissance style, and I can trade it at any time.
I said before that I was born in China and grew up in China. For Chinese people, the Swan Restaurant has extraordinary significance, so I wanted to buy it! "
Ye Tian said with a light smile, speaking very beautifully.
"That's good, Mr. Steven, after you left the restaurant, I notified the Brussels Grand Place management agency about your idea of buying this building!
After some discussion and negotiation, they finally made a decision to consider selling this historic building. Of course, there is a premise, that is, the price is right.
When will you come to Brussels again? We can talk about this transaction, as long as we negotiate the price, you can own this famous historical building! "
"Awesome! Mr. Pierre, but it is a pity that I am currently in Paris and the schedule is very full. I don't think I can spare time to complete the real estate transaction in Brussels.
But that’s okay. I will arrange for the company’s employees and lawyers to rush to Brussels to approach the management department of the Grand Place in Brussels on my behalf~EbookFREE.me~ to complete the transaction as soon as possible! "
Next, Pierre specifically explained how to protect the historic building and how to protect the many antique artworks in the restaurant, before hanging up the phone to end the call.
As an expert on antique art appraisal, Ye Tian naturally understands that a famous historical building like the Swan Restaurant is definitely different from other ordinary buildings.
No matter who buys the building, there are bound to be many restrictions.
For example, it is not allowed to sell without authorization, or even to change the placement of related antique artworks, or to rebuild without authorization, even small changes will not work.
Even normal repairs must be reported for approval, and construction can only be carried out under the supervision of the relevant management agency with permission.
For Ye Tian, these are not problems at all, and he has no intention of changing the current layout of the Swan Restaurant.
His real purpose is the secret passage deep underground, where it might bring a huge surprise!
