Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 1557: Art trade

"Well, Steven, talk about your other conditions, we will listen to you!"

The French Minister of Culture suppressed his anger, gritted his teeth and said.

Ye Tian's face was always filled with a bright smile, how he ought to be beaten.

“Let’s skip those top antique artworks for the time being and talk about historical documents that are closely related to Napoleon. Everyone knows how important those documents are.

It is no exaggeration. For France, the importance of historical documents is much higher than that of top antique works of art, because it concerns the truth of French local history! "

Hearing this, all the French people in this small reception room nodded slightly and agreed, because this is a fact, there is no denying it!

After a short pause, Ye Tian continued:

"Because of this, I intend to keep those documents and materials in France and leave them to the French people, so that those documents and materials will return to the truth of history, rather than secret or public auction."

"What? Are you planning to keep those extremely important documents in France? I heard that right? Steven"

The French president jumped straight up and asked excitedly, his eyes fixed on Ye Tian.

The other French guys were the same. They all stood up in an instant, staring at Ye Tian with rounded eyes, eyes full of incredible, as if they were a little doubtful whether they were auditory hallucinations!

Ye Tian nodded affirmatively, then smiled and said loudly:

"You heard that right, Mr. President, I do have this plan. The place where the documents should exist most is France and Paris. Only here are they the most valuable!

Of course, this is conditional. You should have heard that before, I had an art deal with the Guimei Museum, and exchanged Queen Mary's jewelry for some Chinese antique art.

This time too, I plan to use these precious historical documents to trade with some famous French museums and other cultural institutions in exchange for the Chinese antique artworks in their collections! "

Hearing this, the French president and several others turned to look at Martinez.

Martinez nodded lightly and affirmed Ye Tian's words.

At the same time, he secretly complained inwardly.

That's it! This time, one or several famous French museums will be ransacked by the **** Steven, just like the hapless Guimei Museum!

After the last art transaction, half of the sky in the Jigme Asian Art Museum collapsed. Don't want to take your breath for a long time!

After calming down for a while, Martinez said grimly:

"Let’s talk about it, Steven, you extremely greedy fellow, are you looking at those Chinese antiques again this time? Are you planning to looting that famous museum?

Don't think about it, the Chinese antique works of art you admire are definitely top-notch goods! The museum you are eyeing on will certainly not escape the tragic fate of being looted by craziness! "

"How can you be so exaggerated, Martinez, it seems that you have a deep misunderstanding of me. I have always been a young man in business, open and transparent, and there is no looting at all!"

Ye Tian said jokingly, making fun of Martinez.

"Hahaha"

There was a burst of laughter again, and Anderson and the others all laughed.

The French people on the opposite side also smiled irritably, with a rather helpless expression.

When the laughter fell slightly, Ye Tian immediately continued:

"I am very interested in the top Chinese artworks collected by the National Library of France, silk paintings from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, "The Song of Forty Scenes in Yuanmingyuan", and I want to include it in my bag.

In addition, I am also very interested in the ancient Buddhist scriptures, social documents, silk paintings and other cultural relics that are also collected in the French National Library and from the Mogao Caves in Dunhuang, China.

In addition to these, there are also some Chinese antique works of art collected in the Palace of Fontainebleau, and other French museums and cultural institutions, which can also be placed in the list of exchange items..."

The French guys on the opposite side were silly, their eyes widened.

They were all frightened by Ye Tian's shocking appetite. They looked at him dumbfounded one by one, and there was an angry flame flashing in everyone's eyes, wishing to frustrate him!

Martinez was right, but any museum or cultural institution targeted by Steven as a **** seemed unavoidable to be ransacked by the tragic fate.

The French Minister of Culture couldn't help it anymore, and it was about to explode.

At this moment, Ye Tian stretched out his hands, gently pressed down, and then said softly before the opponent:

"Gentlemen, in fact, you don't have to be anxious to get angry, and you don't have to be angry. You know, the number of documents that are closely related to Napoleon in my hand can be as many as a dozen boxes.

Once those documents are made public, they will rewrite part of the history of the French Revolution and restore the truth of history. This shows how important those documents are!

The antiques and cultural relics from China that I mentioned just now have been sealed up in the warehouses of various cultural and cultural institutions for many years and have no chance to be displayed in front of the general public.

The Chinese Pavilion of the Fontainebleau Palace has been closed for many years, and there are only a handful of days open; most of the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes collected by the French National Library have never been exhibited!

Even if there are opportunities for public exhibition of other Chinese antique artworks, how many audiences will come to appreciate them? In Western society, how many people know how to appreciate Chinese antique art?

To put it bluntly, China is the place where antique works of art should exist most, and only the Chinese know how to appreciate their own civilization, not to mention that most of them are looted.

In comparison between the two, I don’t think it’s difficult to tell which one is more important. For both of us, this is a win-win deal. Everyone gets what they want and everyone is happy. Why not do it?

If you consider the importance and research value of these aspects, the value of a dozen boxes of documents is obviously higher and the impact is greater. In this deal, I am the one who suffers! "

The French president and other French guys were silent, and they began to think about what Ye Tian said.

These remarks sound reasonable, and it seems that there is nothing wrong with it!

For the French, those Chinese antique works of art that have not many opportunities to be exhibited in public or visited by many people are naturally inferior to the dozens of boxes of documents!

But if Steven, a cunning and greedy bastard, would he be worthless? France for nothing? is it possible?

When did this **** run a loss-making business? I have never heard of it! Don't ask, this **** must have a ready future!

Sure enough, these French guys really got it right.

Seeing a look of emotion on the faces of the other people, Ye Tian immediately hit the iron while it was hot, smiling and saying:

"The reason why I am willing to take out those dozen boxes of extremely important documents for the exchange of Chinese antique works of art and cultural relics has another prerequisite!

As I said before, at least half of the top antique artworks found in Napoleon’s treasures cannot be included in the list of artworks with restricted departure!

There are too many top antique works of art. Based on the principle of maximizing profits, if they are sold in full, it will take a long time, and the cycle may be as long as several years!

As far as I am concerned, Paris is not my usual place of residence, and it is impossible for me to collect the top antique art in a house in Paris. That would attract countless art thieves!

There is no such problem in New York. Not only do I live in New York, but the company is also there. Dealing with these top antique artworks is not a problem at all, and there is no difficulty.

That’s why I made this request~www.ltnovel.com~Only in this way, the transaction between us can continue, otherwise I will have to collect the literature and materials, and keep it secret."

It's too much, isn't this Chi Guoguo's threat? It's totally unreasonable!

The French people on the opposite side saw that they were about to explode again, and they were ready to scold Ye Tian.

This time without Ye Tian, ​​the French president suppressed his anger and waved his hands to both sides, signaling Martinez and the others to sit down, don't worry about getting angry!

Immediately afterwards, the French president stared at Ye Tian, ​​biting his molars and said:

"Steven, let's skip the literature and the transaction of Chinese antique art first, and talk about how you plan to deal with the two first editions of the Napoleonic Code. I would love to hear it!"

Ye Tian nodded gently, then smiled and said:

"Okay, let me just talk about what I plan to do with the two first editions of the Napoleonic Code..."
