Treasure Hunt all over the World

About ten minutes later, Ye Tian and the others came to the door of the conference room.

Before entering the meeting room, Ye Tian secretly turned on the perspective, and thoroughly looked through the small meeting room and the guys from the Blackwater Company and the Israeli IZO Company.

Of course, he did not let go of the things those guys brought, the three very familiar antique artworks, and other things.

The reason why Ye Tian did this was not to distrust Cole and the others, but to be safe and to prevent the Vatican from playing tricks. After all, this is their place.

Next, for everything that happened in this conference room, we must not leave any substantive evidence, such as video, recording, etc., which will give people a handle and cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

As far as you can see, the situation in the meeting room is immediately presented clearly and at a glance!

The guys from the Blackwater Company and the Israeli IZO Company were sitting at the conference table, looking at the door of the conference room with excitement and expectation.

On the long conference table in front of them, there are three antique works of art, entrusting each of them with their yearning for a better life and their pursuit of wealth!

As Cole said, they did not carry weapons or bugs, and there were no such things in the conference room. They were very safe.

After confirming this, Ye Tian immediately retracted his sight and ended the perspective.

At the same time, Cole had opened the door of the conference room and walked into the conference room with Ye Tian, ​​David, and several other security personnel.

As soon as they came in, the guys from Blackwater and IZO stood up, ready to say hello and introduce themselves!

However, Ye Tian got ahead of them and interrupted their conversation.

"Good evening, gentlemen, this is Steven. I am glad to meet you here. You don't have to introduce yourself. I still don't know your names. Let's go directly to the topic!"

Hearing what he said, those guys couldn't help being stunned.

How can they think of it, they will encounter this situation, Steven's behavior is too unexpected, and too cautious, what a cunning fox, it is invulnerable at all!

Thinking of this, these guys couldn't help flashing a look of jealousy, and they secretly made up their minds that they would never provoke Steven this guy in the future.

Before these guys could respond, Ye Tian looked at the three antique works of art on the conference table, and said in surprise:

"I heard Cole say that you want me to help identify three antique works of art. If I read it right, the three antique works of art on the conference table are all from the Roman Botsayn souk.

This morning, I also went to the Botshamn outdoor market, and I personally took a look at these three antique works of art, so I know them, now it seems that I might have missed it in the morning! "

"Hahaha"

There was a lot of laughter at the scene, and everyone in the meeting room laughed heartily, but no one said anything.

This is talking nonsense with your eyes open! The acting is really outstanding, beautiful and lively, absolutely worth an Oscar figure!

You guys should go acting instead of being a professional treasure hunter and antique art appraisal expert. It's such a good acting skill!

After a few words secretly, a guy from the Blackwater Company opposite said:

"Yes, Steven, we bought these two paintings and this classicist sculpture from the Botshamn souk this morning, but we don't know how to identify them.

Fortunately, we know that you are in the Vatican and that Cole and I have fought side by side in Afghanistan, so through Cole I would like to ask you to help identify them and see how valuable they are! "

Obviously, this sturdy man is also a good at composing stories, either he has already finished his drafts, or he is acting on the fly, which is a good voice!

Hearing his words, everyone at the scene couldn't help but laugh again, including Ye Tian.

Ye Tian looked at this man appreciatively, then smiled and nodded and said:

"It's better to be respectful! Since you are Cole's friend, that is also my friend. Helping you to identify things is just a matter of effort, let's get started!"

With that said, Ye Tian walked forward and took out a magnifying glass from his coat pocket, pretending to start the identification process, it looked like that.

Looking at the guys from the Blackwater Company and IZO Company, they all opened their eyes wide, staring closely at Ye Tian's movements, staring at the three antique artworks on the conference table, their eyes were extremely hot and full of expectation.

About fifteen minutes later, Ye Tian just finished the performance. He looked up at the guys from the Blackwater Company and IZO Company, and pretended to be excited:

"Gentlemen, I want to congratulate you here. You are very lucky to find three valuable antique works of art. This is really a good thing to celebrate.

But to me, this is not good news. The thought that they were once held in my hand and admired, but I missed them, I feel very heartache! "

"Hahaha"

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

The guys from Blackwater and IZO were all excited and directly celebrated.

After a brief celebration, the good storyteller asked hurriedly:

"Steven, thank you very much for your appraisal. Can you explain these three antique works of art? Give an approximate estimate so that we can also have a bottom line!"

"No problem, man, let's come one by one!"

Ye Tian smiled and nodded in response, and pointed at the spatialist painting.

“Let’s talk about this painting first. This is a spatialist work. To be precise, it should be said to be a ‘pre-spatialist’ painting by the famous modern Italian painter Fontana.

Fontana is the founder and chief painter of Spatialism. This is a work in the middle of his artistic career, which indicates that his style of painting is transitioning from pre-spatialism to spatialism, which has a special meaning.

In the antique art market in recent decades, Fontana's works have been extremely popular and have been enthusiastically sought after by countless collectors, and have created a series of very good auction prices.

Based on my understanding of the market of Fontana's paintings, combined with the particularity of this painting and its artistic value, I valued this pre-spatialist painting at USD 5 to 8 million.

There is a gray-black stain on this painting. Although it affects the viewing, it does not affect the value of the painting. You can find a professional organization to easily remove this stain! "

"Wow! 5 million to 8 million US dollars, that's amazing!"

There was an enviable exclamation sound from David and Cole.

As for the guys from the Blackwater Company and IZO Company, they were almost crazy with excitement. They stared at the pre-spatialist painting closely, and didn't want to look away for a moment!

Fortunately, their ability to control emotions is pretty good, and they didn't immediately burst out, and they celebrated wildly.

Ye Tian glanced at these guys, then pointed to another painting, smiled and said:

"This is a surrealist painting from René Magritte, a famous Belgian painter who is a representative of hyper-realism. It was a work he created in the mid-1930s.

During that period, it was the peak period of Magritte's creation and the peak period of his art. He created many famous surrealist works, and this painting should be among them.

Like Fontana, Rene Magritte's paintings are also extremely popular, and are sought after by countless collectors. He is a modern painter very much liked by major auction houses, and his achievements are very good.

Combining the market conditions of René Magritte's paintings and the performance of the painting itself, I valued this surrealist painting from US$5 to 8 million, which is the same as the previous one! "

Not surprisingly, there was another exclamation on the scene.

Not to mention the guys from the Blackwater Company and IZO Company. They all became more excited. Everyone had red lights in their eyes and looked quite scary.

After a short pause, Ye Tian pointed to the classicist sculpture about half a meter tall, and said with a smile:

"This is a classicist style sculpture. It is a sculpture of Donatello, a famous sculptor in the early Renaissance. I don't need to introduce Donatello. I believe everyone knows it.

Let's get straight to the subject and talk about the market value of this marble sculpture. There are very few small sculptures by Donatello, and even fewer appear in the antique art market. Every appearance will cause a sensation.

Although this sculpture is an early work of Donatello's artistic career, it is also valuable. According to my understanding of the current art auction market, the value of this sculpture is also between 5 million and 8 million US dollars! "

"Wow! The value of the three antique artworks is basically equal, which is too exaggerated!"

"It's another top art piece, and it's a sculpture of Donatello, it's incredible!"

The scene became noisy again, and every voice was full of envy and even jealousy.

While being amazed, everyone also admired Ye Tian's vision of identifying antique artworks to the extreme.

In the antique and second-hand market of Botsaymen Open Air Market, he actually found three top-quality artworks that were basically equal in value and neglected. This vision is amazing!

Looking at the guys from the Blackwater Company and the IZO Company, they are completely stupid. Everyone is dumbfounded, staring at the three top art works on the table, with red eyes!

Ye Tian glanced at these guys, and then continued:

"Gentlemen, congratulations once again, for harvesting three top art works and three great surprises. As a professional, I want to give you some reasonable suggestions.

If you are going to sell these three top art works, it is best not to be in Italy. The value-added tax on art works in Italy is as high as 22%.

There is no art value-added tax in New York. You can bring these three top art works to New York ~www.ltnovel.com~ and entrust them to top auction houses for public auction, so as to maximize your profits.

If you rush to New York now, you may be able to catch up with the New Year's auction. If you can’t, then wait for the New York spring auction season next year. By then, the world’s top collectors will gather in New York.

When conducting a public auction, in order to ensure that your interests are not infringed, and not to be calculated by those buyers, you'd better set a reserve price for the auction, I suggest it is US$4 million!

In case these three top art works go unsold, you don’t have to feel frustrated. When I return to New York, if they haven’t been sold yet, I’m willing to buy them for $4 million each.”

Hearing his words, the guys from Blackwater Company and IZO Company immediately awoke, and each of them flashed with gratitude in their eyes.

"Steven, thank you very much for your suggestion. We will set off tomorrow and rush to New York with these three top art pieces. The 22% value-added tax on art works. The Italians are really crazy for money!"

The guy who made up the story nodded and said, his excited voice was a little trembling.
