Treasure Hunt all over the World

Ye Tian did not respond immediately, but glanced at the two Greeks, and the smiles on their faces slowly disappeared.

Seeing his performance, the two Greeks both felt a little stunned, feeling that something bad happened.

Immediately afterwards, Maria lowered her voice and said:

"Steven, this fragment of the marble statue is just a section of the left forearm, and the upper and lower ends are missing, although the carving skills shown are very good, and it has the idealism of ancient Greek sculpture.

However, to be sure by this, this is the work of Phidias, the **** of classical sculpture, and a fragment of his famous representative statue of the goddess Athena. I am afraid that it is still not possible. More evidence is needed! "

More evidence? You Greeks don’t have one, but buddies do!

When I bring this statue fragment back to Beijing and combine it with other statue fragments, you will know if this is a sculpture of Phidias after all!

The fragment of the statue in front of you looks very broken, but when it appears on the statue of the goddess Athena, you will see how bright it will bloom!

At that time, just wait to be shocked, and everyone else is the same.

Ye Tian murmured to himself, but did not interrupt Maria aloud.

"But it is undeniable that the fragment of this marble statue is indeed excellent. It is very likely that it was made by a famous sculptor in ancient Greece, and it is very likely to be part of a famous statue of a god.

In view of this, Steven, we hope to keep this fragment of the statue in Athens and in the National Archaeological Museum of Greece. We will organize the top experts and scholars to study this fragment of the statue,..."

Maria continued to speak in a low voice, Xiaozhi moved with emotion and reason, trying to impress Ye Tian.

But for the fragment of this marble statue, Ye Tian knows better than anyone else, and understands its great value. How could it be left in Athens!

Not to mention the two Greeks in front of you, even if the heavenly king Lao Tzu comes, don't even think about snatching this marble statue fragment from him.

When Maria's voice fell, Ye Tian immediately sneered and said:

"I bought this fragment of the marble statue from the Athens flea market. The process of buying and selling was completely legal and was the result of fair trade. This is well known, and there were many witnesses at that time.

In other words, this is my private property, and I have the right to dispose of it freely. The basic principle that private property is sacred and inviolable, I think everyone here is very clear about this, there is no doubt about it.

I'm very sorry, Mr. Minister and Ms. Maria, I will not leave this fragment of the marble statue in Greece. I will arrange for a plane to transport it and some other antique works of art early tomorrow morning."

Upon hearing this, the two Greeks immediately got anxious.

"Yes, Steven, the basic principle of sacred and inviolable private property. Of course we know that this fragment of the marble statue was obtained through a fair trade, and we will not deny it.

However, you should understand the protection policy of antiques and cultural relics in Greece. We will never allow such important cultural relics closely related to the Greek nation and history, culture and art to escape.

For such important antiques and cultural relics, we will definitely include them in the list of restricted-exit antiques. You can collect and trade in Greece without any problem, but you cannot take them out of Greece.”

The Greek Minister of Culture said in a low voice, biting his molars, already a little frustrated, and his eyes were spitting out fire.

Maria, who was standing next to him, didn't get any better, her eyes widened, her fists tightly clenched, and she wished she could rush up and beat Ye Tian.

Ye Tian glanced at these two people, then sneered and whispered:

"If you include this fragment of the marble statue on the list of restricted-exit antique artworks, then I am very sorry that you will lose the opportunity to participate in this exploration of the ancient Roman shipwreck treasure.

I originally planned it this way. In this exploration, if I find sculptures and antique works of ancient Rome or the Hellenistic period, I don't mind leaving some of them in Greece.

In other words, if you restrict me from taking away my legal private property, I can only cancel the original plan, refuse to cooperate with you, and take away all the treasures that will be salvaged in the future.

You may be able to prevent the exploration and salvage of ancient Roman shipwreck treasures from unfolding. We are not allowed to use Greek ports. That's okay. We can start the operation again in another country.

Let's talk about the fragment of the statue. I will not violate the Greek law and take it out of Athens, but I can sell it to a certain top collector or store it in a bank vault. You will not get it either.

Presumably you don’t want to see that kind of situation. For both of us, it is the worst result, so I urge you to think carefully and don’t do things that harm others and yourself. The gains outweigh the losses! "

The Greek Minister of Culture and Maria were all dumbfounded, they looked at Ye Tian dumbfounded, as if they were looking at a cannibal monster, with eyes full of anger.

He is a lunatic, and is extremely cunning, too difficult to deal with!

Next, Ye Tian casually said a few words about the two Greeks, then left, turned around and walked towards David and Zoe.

Seeing his leaving back, the two Greeks gritted their teeth and cursed in a low voice.

"This **** **** is too greedy. I knew I shouldn't have let him in, or let him come to Athens."

"As in the legend, this **** Steven is really greedy to the extreme, what shall we do now? Do you just watch him take away this fragment of the marble statue?"

...

Soon, more than an hour passed.

Many professionals in the banquet hall have already identified the fragments of the marble statue, discussed with each other, and reached an identification conclusion that most people agree with.

It was naturally the discoverer and owner of this fragment of the marble statue, Ye Tian, ​​who read the conclusion of the appraisal in public.

He came to the center of the stage again, picked up the microphone and smiled and said:

"After repeated appraisals and frank discussions by many professionals present, a preliminary appraisal conclusion has been reached regarding the fragment of this marble statue, which I will announce below.

First of all, it is certain that the body of this fragment of the marble statue was indeed created in ancient Greece between 500 BC and 400 BC. It is a statue of a certain goddess in ancient Greek mythology.

The statue of the ancient Greek goddess should be enshrined in a temple in ancient Greece. It is of great significance. On this point, the conclusion can be drawn from the Paros marble used in the sculpture. There is no dispute.

Moreover, the carving skills shown on the fragments of the marble statue are very sophisticated. Only a few lines show the idealism of ancient Greek sculpture, which is obviously a masterpiece.

The lines on this fragment of the marble statue are too simple, without clothing or more carving marks, even though the shape and lines on the wrist are a bit like Phidias’s Athena.

However, it is impossible to determine based on these alone. This is the work of Phidias, the **** of classical sculpture. To determine this, more evidence and more statue fragments need to be found.

Only by finding more fragments of the statue and combining them, even if only a complete arm can be restored, it is basically possible to determine its creator, which is the master of ancient Greece.

Although we cannot be sure for the time being who created this fragment of the marble statue and it came from the ancient Greek sculpture, it is certain that this is a very important antique artifact."

"Hey--!"

There was a sigh at the banquet hall and countless live broadcasts at the same time, and everyone was somewhat disappointed.

But this was the voice Ye Tian wanted to hear most.

In time, when the statue of Athena of Phidias is put together and restored, when it is born in Beijing, people will understand that the value of this marble statue today is.

Next, Ye Tian introduced the different appraisal opinions of the fragment of the marble statue, and only then ended the first link of today's small appreciation meeting.

And the second link, naturally, is the auction, it is time to sweep the wealth.

Ye Tian personally put the broken marble statue back into the black metal trolley box, and then placed the box next to the auction table.

At the same time, two employees of the Brave Exploration Company carried an oil painting onto the stage and placed the oil painting on the display stand next to the auction stand.

This painting depicts a young girl wearing a white gauze dress, leaning on a lady's chair, resting her cheek with one hand, seeming to be meditating, with tenderness in her eyes.

The sunlight shining into the room through the window evenly sprinkled on this beautiful girl, adding a bit of color to her and making her look more moving.

While everyone was enjoying this painting, Ye Tianqinglang's voice was uploaded from the stage again ~www.ltnovel.com~ into the ears of everyone on the scene.

"The oil painting you see now is a romantic painting. To be precise, it is a romantic painting of the Munich school. It is an artwork that I harvested at the flea market in Athens today.

The artist who created this romantic painting is the famous Greek painter Rembesis at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. Today, he is considered one of the most important representatives of the Munich School of Art.

Among all the Romantic painters of the Munich School, Rembesis is considered to be the most romantic artist. This painting has his personal signature, but it is very hidden and difficult to find..."

Not surprisingly, the banquet hall and countless live broadcasts once again caused a commotion.

"I'm going! Really? The guy Steven actually found another Rembesis painting. God loves this guy too much. Is there any reason?"

"I am very sure now that the flea market in Athens must have experienced a catastrophe today and was looted wildly by this guy Steven!"
