Chapter 1973: Information on Solomon's Treasure

The tripartite joint press conference has ended. Many reporters from the world's major news media have hurriedly left and rushed to publish articles.
　　 However, Ye Tian did not leave St. Paul's Cathedral. Instead, under the leadership of the Bishop of Kent, he came to a reception room, accompanied by David.
　　 When they entered this reception room, there was no one else in it, it was empty.
　　 After Ye Tian and David entered the reception room and sat down, the bishop of Kent told them the reason for bringing them here.
　　"Steven, the representative of Israel will be here soon to have a meeting with you. The Israelis notified us temporarily, so we did not have time to say hello to you.
　　Originally, the Israelis wanted to wait for these six religious sacred objects to arrive at the Vatican before contacting you, but they heard that you were going to personally those Chinese antique artworks back to Beijing. They did so in advance."
　　 Upon hearing this, Ye Tian and David immediately looked at each other, and both of them saw a hint of curiosity in each other's eyes.
　　 Then, Ye Tian said with a smile on his face:
　　 "It doesn't matter, Bishop of Kent, anyway, sooner or later we have to meet with the Israelis. What does it matter sooner or later? I don't know who is the representative of Israel?
　　 One more thing, the Israelis are so eager to meet with me, I think it’s not just because of the fire union that night before? What is their purpose? I'm curious"
　　 "According to the Israeli report, those who came to meet with you this time include our old friends in Jerusalem, Israel’s Deputy Minister of Culture, Joshua, and a mysterious person.
　　 It is unknown who this mysterious person is, but I am sure that he is definitely a higher and more important person than Joshua, and a heavyweight in Israeli politics.
　　As for the purpose of the Israelis, I don’t know, but you can rest assured that the Israelis have made a promise before that they will not launch revenge against you because of the failure that night."
　　 The Bishop of Kent continued, his eyes full of curiosity.
　　 "In that case, let's wait here and see what tricks the Israelis are playing"
　　 Ye Tian smiled and nodded and said, his expression was very calm.
　　 Then, the Bishop of Kent changed the subject.
　　 "Steven, when will you return to Europe after you go to Beijing? Then we will go to the next country and continue to explore the treasures of the Knights Templar"
　　 "I'm afraid it will take some time. After returning to Beijing to settle the top Chinese antique works of art, I will fly to New York immediately. There are still many things to deal with.
　　 My personal exhibition hall in the Metropolitan Museum, the "Kings and Knights" exhibition hall, has been set up. It's time to unveil it. Naturally, I can't be absent for the opening ceremony. I must be present to cut the ribbon.
　　 After dealing with the things in New York, it’s almost the Chinese Lunar New Year, which is the most important holiday of the year for Chinese people. I must take Betty back to Beijing to celebrate the New Year with my family.
　　 During the Chinese New Year, I want to make up a Chinese wedding in Beijing, and I have to deal with the preparation of a private museum. I have to be busy for a while. When these things are processed, it will be early March.
　　 Then we will return to New York to deal with some corporate affairs. It is estimated that around March 10th, we will come to Europe again and continue our joint exploration of the treasures of the Knights Templar."
　　 Ye Tian explained a few words, and did not hide the bishop of Kent, nor was it necessary.
　　 Hearing what he said, the Bishop of Kent was silent for a moment, then smiled and nodded and said:
　　 "That's fine, everyone can take a break for a while and relax your tight nerves. To be honest, since the beginning of the joint exploration operation, I have been in a state of high tension and excitement, and I am really tired!"
　　 "It is true. During this time, everyone can not only take a good rest, but also do a little preparatory work. When the joint exploration operation starts again, I hope we can make greater discoveries."
　　 "Okay, just arrange it like this"
　　 In chatting, laughing, and chatting, seven or eight minutes passed quickly.
　　 Suddenly, there were several knocks outside the reception room door, and then, the reception room door was pushed open from the outside.
　　 Leonardo took the lead in walking in and took a quick glance at the situation in the reception room.
　　 Immediately afterwards, the Pope and a white man in his seventies walked into the reception room, followed by a cardinal and the Israeli Deputy Minister of Culture Joshua.
　　 Seeing these people coming in, Ye Tian and the others immediately stood up and greeted them with a smile on their faces.
　　 Within a few steps, Ye Tian came to the front and greeted the white man in his seventies.
　　 "Good afternoon, Mr. President, this is Steven. I am very glad to see you here. I didn't expect you to be here. What a surprise."
　　 Yes, the 70-year-old white man who walked into this reception room with the Pope is the President of Israel.
　　In Israel, although the president has no real power and is far less powerful than the prime minister, he is just a symbolic position, but after all, he is the head of state and his status is naturally very important.
　　Israel president will appear here, which is indeed a bit unexpected by Ye Tian.
　　 "Good afternoon, Mr. Steven, it seems that you know me, so I don’t need to introduce myself anymore. I am also very happy to meet you. I have been famous for your name for a long time."
　　 The Israeli president said with a smile, and shook hands with Ye Tian.
　　 Next, Ye Tian introduced David again and shook hands with Joshua, the Deputy Minister of Culture of Israel.
　　After we met each other and exchanged greetings, we sat down on the sofa and started chatting.
　　 In the process, neither Ye Tian, ​​the Bishop of Kent, nor the Israeli president and Joshua mentioned the rainy night fighting in the Temple Church before, as if the fire had never happened.
　　 The cardinal who followed the pope into the reception room and Leonardo, who was in charge of security, both exited the reception room and closed the door of the room.
　　 There are only three parties left in the reception room, including the Pope and Bishop of Kent representing the Vatican, Ye Tian and David from the Brave Exploration Company, and the President of Israel and Joshua.
　　 After a few chats, the Israeli president finally got to the point and said his intentions.
　　"Steven, in this series of exploration operations jointly conducted by your company and the Vatican, your appearance is so amazing and breathtaking. There seems to be no treasure that you can't find in the world.
　　Here, on behalf of all the people of Israel, on behalf of all Jews, and on behalf of all Jews in the world, I would like to express my gratitude to you for discovering those few Jewish holy artifacts.
　　Whether it is the seven-branched bronze candlestick of Herod the Great you found in Jerusalem, or the "Gospel of Hebrew" and the seven-branched gold candlestick of King Solomon discovered this time, every holy object has a special meaning."
　　 As he said, the Israeli president stretched out his right hand again and shook hands with Ye Tian.
　　 "Mr. President, you don't have to be polite. You found those religious holy artifacts. It was just a coincidence. To me, they were all unexpected joys. Of course, these are all good things and worth celebrating!"
　　 Ye Tian shook hands with the Israeli president and said a few polite words.
　　 Next, the President of Israel went on to say:
　　"Inspired by your joint exploration operation, we in Israel also want to cooperate with you to find a legendary and famous treasure. The terms of cooperation can refer to the joint exploration agreement signed between you and the Vatican.
　　In other words, we Israel will do all the coordination and preparation for finding this treasure. You are only responsible for leading the team to explore the treasure. If you are lucky enough to find the treasure, we can distribute the treasure according to the agreement.
　　We only take the religious sacred objects and artifacts that symbolize the Jewish nation from the treasures. All other secular properties belong to your Brave Fearless Exploration Company. If the treasure is not found, we will also make compensation.
　　 This is why we came to see you, I don’t know what you think? Regarding the legendary treasure, we have some information, but the accuracy is unknown. This requires you to verify it."
　　 Hearing these words, Ye Tian's eyes lit up instantly, shining straight.
　　 Before the Israeli president finished speaking, he basically guessed what the treasure the Israelis were looking for was, and it was definitely one of the most famous treasures in world history.
　　 He did not immediately respond, agreed or refused, but pretended to think about it, and then asked pretendingly:
　　 "Mr. President, I really want to know what exactly is this famous treasure that you Israel intends to explore with me, can you tell me something about it?"
　　 Following his remarks, the Pope, the Bishop of Kent, and David, who were present at the scene, all looked at the Israeli president, and everyone was full of curiosity.
　　The Israeli president took a deep look at Ye Tian, ​​then said solemnly:
　　"Solomon’s Treasure! What we are going to explore is the legendary Solomon’s Treasure. We are eager to find the Jewish holy relics stored in Solomon’s Treasure, the Old Testament and the Sinai, and even the Ark of the Covenant.
　　In ancient legends, Solomon’s treasure contains dozens of hundreds of tons of gold and jewels and diamonds. If you find the treasure, those secular properties belong to you, and we can buy them at market prices in Israel.

　　 His voice has not yet fallen, and there is already an exclamation on the scene.
　　 "God! It is Solomon's treasure. It is one of the most famous treasures in the world, even more famous than the treasures of the Knights Templar!"
　　 "Wow! If you can find the legendary treasure of Solomon, it will definitely cause a sensation in the whole world!"
　　 The Bishop of Kent and David both exclaimed in a low voice, and even the Pope was shocked.
　　 Only Ye Tian, ​​with a serious expression on his face, fell silent.
　　 Of course, this is just a show.
　　 There was a moment of silence~EbookFREE.me~ He said in a deep voice:
　　"To jointly explore the legendary treasure of Solomon, I have to say that this temptation is very big and tempting. I also want to unlock the secrets of this world-famous treasure. It will be a historic moment.
　　 As for whether there are dozens or hundreds of tons of gold and jewellery diamonds in Solomon’s treasure, I don’t really care or believe it. 3000 years ago, metal smelting technology hadn’t reached that level.
　　 As far as I know, the most likely burial location for Solomon’s treasure is Mount Zion in Jerusalem, where Solomon’s Temple was once, and it is said that Solomon’s treasure was buried there.
　　If the place to explore the treasure is in Mount Zion or other places in Jerusalem, then I’m sorry, I can’t cooperate with you, I don’t want to cause a religious war because of an exploration operation.

　　 This time it was the Israelis’ turn to silence. The Israeli president and Joshua both fell silent and said nothing.
　　 After a while, the Israeli president said with a wry smile:
　　"Steven, Mount Zion in Jerusalem is indeed one of the goals. Since you have concerns, you can exclude Mount Zion from the joint exploration plan, and we Israelis explore there alone.
　　 In addition to Mount Zion in Jerusalem, there are several other possible treasure burial sites. They are not in Jerusalem and surrounding areas, but on the African continent. Shouldn’t that be a problem? "
　　 Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately burst into a bright smile.
