Chapter 2232: Tarmac transactions

Around ten thirty in the morning, Berlin Tegel Airport.
A large convoy drove straight into the airport apron, and under the guidance of several airport customs vehicles, it drove to several spare runways located on the edge of the airport apron.
On those spare runways, there were four large airplanes parked.
Two of the aircraft have the Air China logo printed on the fuselage, and the other two aircraft have the Aeroflot logo printed on the fuselage, both of which are very eye-catching.
The two Air China planes were the Air China chartered planes that Ye Tian had contracted to transport Chinese antique artworks back to Beijing.
As for the two Aeroflot planes, it goes without saying that they were filled with Chinese antique works of art originally collected in the Hermitage Museum in exchange for the amber room in Ye Tian's hands.
It can be seen that under the gangway of the four aircraft, some people are standing each.
Below the two Air China chartered planes are several antique art appraisal experts from the National Museum and the Forbidden City, as well as two groups of cultural and museum staff, as well as some employees who are brave enough to explore the company.
Of course, there are also many security personnel from China, as well as security personnel under Ye Tian.
And beside the gangway of the two Aeroflot planes, many Russians headed by Mikhail stood.
Among them are antique art appraisal experts from the Hermitage Museum and a large number of cultural and blog personnel, as well as high-level officials from the Russian government and the St. Petersburg city government, as well as a large number of Russian agents and security personnel.
At this time, the Chinese, Russians, and the many company employees under Ye Tian on these spare runways were all excited and full of expectation in their eyes.
Especially when they saw the convoy entering the apron and quickly approaching these alternate runways, they all cheered excitedly.
In a blink of an eye, this convoy had reached the edge of the innermost runway and stopped on the side of an Air China chartered plane.
When the convoy stopped, a large number of armed security personnel immediately rushed out of the vehicles and quickly became alert.
Those Berlin police cars that followed, as well as the Tegel Airport police and customs vehicles, were all parked on the periphery, and many police and customs officers who got off those cars could only guard the periphery.
After confirming the safety of the scene, Ye Tian appeared, got out of a bullet-proof SUV, and walked straight to the Air China chartered plane.
Not far behind him, David and the others accompanied the German Deputy Minister of Culture and several other senior German government officials, standing beside the motorcade, looking at Ye Tian.
Within a few steps, Ye Tian had come to the gangway of the Air China charter flight and greeted the people waiting here.
"Mr. Jin and Mr. Liu, it’s been a long time since I saw you, how are you two? Excuse me. I didn’t expect you to lead the team to Berlin this time, which was a bit unexpected to me. Thank you very much."
With that, Ye Tian shook hands with the two elders standing in the front, acting very decently.
These two come from the Forbidden City and the National Museum respectively. They are both well-known experts in antique art appraisal in China, and they are also old friends who are very familiar with Ye Tian.
"Ye Tian, ​​your kid did a great job! You actually wiped out Hermitage again. We are all in good health, otherwise it is impossible to invite Ying to fly to Berlin. This is a seized opportunity."
Mr. Jin from the Forbidden City said with a bright smile on his face, and even the folds of the ravines were already blooming.
As soon as the voice fell, Mr. Liu from the National Museum of China excitedly continued to say:
"Isn't it? After receiving your boy's call, all the old guys in our museum are vying to fly to Berlin to welcome those long-lost national treasures back to Beijing.
I was only able to take this mission after I wasted no effort. Before returning to the country, I must see the treasures that are invaluable."
Ye Tian chuckled softly, then nodded and said:
"You two can lead the team to Berlin, so I feel more relieved. Later you two will help me to check and identify those national treasures of antique art, so that the Russians will not play any tricks."
Hearing this, the two elders rolled their eyes angrily.
"Don't use us to play cymbals, Ye Tian, ​​just your kid's unique identification skills, and you need our two old guys to help you with your palms? Stop teasing, we are just an eye addiction."
That being said, the hearts of the two elders were extremely ironed, and the expressions in Ye Tian's eyes were full of appreciation.
Next, Ye Tian greeted the others again, and then took Mr. Jin and the others to the senior officials of the German government and gave a brief introduction to both sides.
At the same time, Mikhail had walked over with a group of Russians, obviously a little impatient.
They want to see all the golden siding of the Amber Room as soon as possible, complete the art transaction as soon as possible, and then leave here and return to St. Petersburg, lest the night is too long.
After all, this is Berlin, the capital of Germany, and Germany is a NATO country, which has always been at odds with Russia.
More importantly, the Amber Room was born in Germany. It is not only a national treasure of Russia, but also a national treasure of Germany. Can the Russians not worry?
Because of this, Ye Tian chose to trade on the tarmac of Tegel Airport instead of passing through the German customs. This will undoubtedly speed up the transaction greatly and avoid some unnecessary troubles.
With the arrival of these Russians, Ye Tian introduced everyone from the three parties again, letting everyone know each other.
After walking through the procedures on these scenes, Mikhail immediately whispered and couldn't wait:
"Steven, let's start the transaction. I believe you, like us, want to complete this art transaction as soon as possible and leave here as soon as possible."
Ye Tian nodded lightly, then smiled and said:
"You are as I thought, Mikhail, let your people start to move. Take the boxes containing Chinese antique art from the plane and I will check them one by one.
As for the boxes filled with the golden siding of the Amber Room, they are in these three armed vehicles. I will ask my staff to move them down immediately. You can carefully identify them.
As he said, Ye Tian pointed his finger at the three armed vehicles parked not far away.
"Okay, Steven, we will act now"
Mikhail nodded in response, then took out his mobile phone and began to notify the staff of the Hermitage Museum who followed.
Ye Tian nodded to Derek and Cole, indicating that they can start carrying the boxes with golden amber siding.
After receiving the signal, Derek and the others immediately acted, opened the back doors of the three armed escorts, and began to move the boxes from the inside out.
On the two runways a little further away, the staff of the Hermitage Museum also launched an action, moving boxes containing Chinese antique artworks from two Russian Airlines charter planes.
It didn't take long for the thirty boxes in the three armed vehicles to be removed and placed in front of everyone, but the Russians in the distance were still busy.
At this time, many Russians headed by Mikhail stared at the thirty boxes that were close at hand with bright eyes, and each of them was so excited that they could no longer stand, and there was nothing else in their eyes.
Many Germans here also stared at these boxes, with eyes full of dismay and regret.
As for Mr. Jin Lao and Liu, as well as several other antique art appraisal experts and cultural and cultural staff from the Forbidden City and the National Museum of China~EbookFREE.me~, they looked at these boxes curiously.
"Steven, can you open these boxes? Let's appreciate and appraise the golden siding of the Amber Room, and count the number to see if it matches the number we agreed upon."
Vasily, who came on behalf of the Kremlin, said, eyes full of expectation.
Ye Tian shook his head slightly, and said with a smile:
"Don't worry, Vasily, wait for the Wenbo personnel in Hermitage to transport the boxes containing the Chinese antique artworks. Let's open all the boxes together and conduct identification and inventory.
After the appraisal is completed, the number is counted, and after the confirmation is correct, we can complete the art transaction, and then each take the treasure from the transaction, you return to St. Petersburg, and I fly directly to Beijing."
Hearing this, all the Russians at the scene rolled their eyes ill-tempered, and each of them was itching with hatred.
This extremely greedy bastard, even at this time, still doesn't trust us!
