Knowing the value of the antique artworks in their hands, the guys from Blackwater and IZO left the meeting room contentedly and returned to the Paul VI Hotel next to the Vatican!
When they left, these guys didn't say much.
They know very well in their hearts what they can and cannot say! They just took a deep look at Ye Tian, and everyone nodded heavily at him, meaning it was self-evident!
It is completely conceivable how these guys will celebrate wildly after returning to the hotel.
For them, tonight is definitely a dreamlike night, and it will definitely be awake at night.
By tomorrow, these guys will set off with the three top artworks, leave Rome, go straight to New York, and then send the three top artworks to the auction house, waiting to make a lot of money.
Although these guys left, Ye Tian and the others did not leave this meeting room, they still stayed here, talking and laughing.
Ten minutes later, a few security personnel pretending to be tourists mixed in the crowd during the day, brought a few antique art objects into this conference room!
They were at the Botsay Gate open-air market to accept Ye Tian's instructions and secretly bloodbath the guys in the antique shop that let him eat closed doors, Brandon, Justin, Connor and others.
These guys are not easy to show up at the Botshamn open-air bazaar, which would expose their identities. Now it is dead at night, and in the Vatican, there is no such concern.
And what they were holding were the pieces of antique art that Ye Tian had secretly informed them and asked them to swept from that antique shop.
Ye Tian naturally knew these antique works of art, but David and the others were at a loss. Everyone was very curious and wanted to learn more.
After entering the meeting room, Brandon and the others put the antique artworks in their hands on the meeting table, and then stood aside, chatting with Cole and the others, while waiting for Ye Tian to answer questions.
Ye Tian stepped forward, looked at the antique works of art, and confirmed the result.
Without exception, the few antique works of art on the conference table are exactly what I designated during the day, and there are not many of them.
After confirming the result, he smiled and said:
"Good job, Brandon, Justin, and a few other guys. These antique artworks are exactly the goals I specified. Each of you will get one hundred thousand dollars as a reward in return!"
Before the words were over, there was already an ecstatic cheer in the conference room.
"Wow! The one hundred thousand dollars reward is really great!"
"Steven, you are definitely the most generous boss I have ever seen. This is a perfect day!"
The cheers were naturally the guys Brandon and Justin. They were all excited, shaking their fists or high-fiving each other, celebrating.
The other people in the conference room also looked at these guys enviously, wishing to replace them. That's a hundred thousand dollars, who doesn't like it?
Ye Tian looked at the guys who were cheering and celebrating, then glanced at several other security personnel, then smiled and said:
"Brandon, this is the reward you deserve. The other guys don't need to be too envious. There will be many more opportunities in the future. Maybe the next time you cheer and celebrate is you.
Tomorrow I am going to visit two other famous antique streets in Rome, as well as some well-known antique shops. If you encounter this kind of opportunity today, it is time for you! "
The cheers immediately sounded again, and this time the cheers were replaced by other security personnel.
After the cheers fell, Ye Tian entered the topic.
He first pretended to appraise it, and then began to comment on the antique works of art on the conference table.
"This realistic painting depicting the canal in Milan is the work of Pietro Anigoni, a famous Italian painter and realist master, and was created in the early 1950s.
Anigoni was one of the first members of the ‘Realism Painters Group’ established in 1955 and one of the most outstanding Italian artists of the 20th century. He was even known as the last realist master!
To commemorate this outstanding artist, Italy established a large-scale Anigoni painting gallery in Florence, and named a street and a square after him.
Speaking of this realist painting, this is a peak work of Anigoni. The artistic value is extraordinary. I valued it at about US$4 million. If it is sold, it may be even higher.
Let's take a look at this impressionist painting. This painting was made by the famous impressionist painter Mary Cassatt, one of the few famous female painters in the history of world art.
Marie Cassatt is a painter from the United States and the only American to be invited by the French Impressionists to participate in the exhibition. She has been living in Paris for a long time since the 1870s.
Because Mary Cassatt is a female and American, her paintings are extremely popular in the American art market. Every time a painting appears, collectors will be enthusiastically chased,..."
Next, Ye Tian explained all the antique artworks on the conference table and gave their valuations.
Following his introduction, from time to time there will be bursts of exclamation and cheers in this conference room.
While Ye Tian and the others cheered and celebrated and enjoyed the joy of harvesting, many places in Rome were shrouded in a cloud of gloom and mist, and many people even cursed Ye Tian in a low voice.
For many Romans, especially for professionals in the field of Roman antique art collection, this is definitely a miserable night, which is unforgettable for a lifetime.
...
One night passed quickly, and a new day came in an instant.
In the early morning, when many Romans were still immersed in their dreamland and sleeping soundly, Ye Tian and the others had already got up and started to take action!
As soon as the sun rose, a huge heavy convoy drove out of the Vatican and headed straight for the Leonardo Da Vinci International Airport in Rome.
In the middle of this heavy convoy, there are two unusually strong armored escorts.
The two armored escorts contained all the fragments of the statue of Athena, as well as all the antique Chinese artworks that swept from the Botsaymen open-air market yesterday!
Responsible for escorting and protecting the two armored escorts are a large number of armed security personnel led by Ye Tian himself, as well as some members of the Swiss Guard on secondment from the Vatican.
In addition, the two medium-sized helicopters rented by Ye Tian also took off at the same time, whistling and circling over the convoy, following the convoy all the way to the airport.
Not surprisingly, as soon as this heavy-duty convoy left the Vatican, it attracted numerous attentions and caused quite a stir in the city of Rome.
The Italian Cultural Relics Gendarmerie and the Roman police responded quickly, and their vehicles followed closely, watching Ye Tian and their convoy closely.
Even the Casa Monica family entrenched in the southeast of Rome, after receiving the news, they were very nervous, lest Ye Tian and the others rushed into the southeast of Rome with great fanfare!
Fortunately, this was just a false alarm. Those Mafia scumbags quickly figured out that Ye Tian and the others rushed to the airport, not to trouble themselves!
From leaving the Vatican to arriving at Leonardo Da Vinci International Airport, the journey went smoothly without any trouble.
But when customs clearance at the airport, the Italian cultural relics gendarmerie immediately jumped out and asked to inspect all the goods that were going to Beijing, with a very firm attitude!
And they also brought a few antique art appraisal experts, obviously they came here, lest Ye Tian bring some priceless top antique art out of Italy!
Ye Tian did not refuse their request.
He acted very calmly, openly letting these Italian cultural relics be inspected by the military police, while his own team of lawyers supervised the whole process, and recorded the whole process with a camera, keeping it as evidence, so that no one would steal the show!
The meticulous inspection began immediately, but Ye Tian knew it well!
Those Italian antique art appraisal experts are not so fancy, everyone has real talents and learning, and they are somewhat famous in the industry!
However, in their eyes, those Chinese antique works of art are not top artworks that are restricted from leaving the country. They are not on the relevant list and there is no reason to detain them.
The fragments of the statue of Athena that were completely disrupted by Ye Tian and scattered in several solid wood crates, but they did not know their origin and value.
And this statue is too badly damaged, there is no value at all, and there is no need to stay in trouble!
Considering Ye Tian's huge influence in the field of antique art collection, coupled with the fact that the camera lens is always facing them, the antique art appraisal experts dare not find fault for no reason. It is tantamount to asking for trouble!
In this way, it took more than an hour to complete the customs clearance.
Next, Anderson and the others escorted the solid wood crates filled with antique artworks and fragments of Athena into the airport ~EbookFREE.me~ and boarded the Air China charter plane that was responsible for transporting these treasures.
About half an hour later, the Air China chartered plane took off suddenly, rushed into the sky, and flew straight to the east, heading straight to Beijing!
It wasn't until the large passenger plane rushed into the blue sky and flew out of the field of vision that Ye Tian took a deep breath, and the heart that had been hanging high in his throat before fell back into his stomach.
Later, he left the airport with the convoy and returned to the Vatican.
At this time, it was approaching nine o'clock in the morning.
The ancient city of Rome has completely woken up and a new day has begun. The people in this city have begun to rush for their lives again!
But how did the Romans know that this stormy city will soon usher in another storm and be ransacked again by Ye Tian.
Ye Tian’s goal this time is no longer the Botsay Gate open-air market, but the two most famous antique streets in Rome, as well as the famous antique shops dotted around the city!
