Treasure Hunt all over the World
Chapter 2923: The tide of greedy eyes
As soon as Ye Tian got in the car, his cell phone rang. The call came from the White House and it was the secretary of the president.
The phone connected, and the voice of the blonde beauty came.
After a few polite sentences, the presidential secretary explained the true intention of the call.
"Mr. Steven, you watched the live broadcast at Khalili Market in Cairo. Mr. President watched the whole process. It was very exciting. He congratulated you on your great discovery and said that you are the darling of God's favor, which is enviable!
The value of the fragments of the Rosetta Stone, you said very clearly in the live broadcast. Mr. President would like to ask, is it possible to bring all the fragments of the Rosetta Stone back to the United States? Those are priceless treasures!
If the Egyptian side obstructs, we can provide some help, for example, let the diplomats of the US Embassy in Egypt bring out the stone tablets. In the diplomatic field, diplomatic parcels do not need to be inspected! "
Without hesitation, Ye Tian answered immediately.
"Thank you Mr. President for your attention. The discovery of these Rosetta Stone fragments is indeed a great archaeological discovery. These fragments will enable modern people to better understand and study the splendid ancient Egyptian civilization.
There is no doubt that these Rosetta stone fragments are priceless. There are many ways to ship them all to the United States, but in that case, our company will not want to start any exploration operations in Egypt!
Including this tripartite joint exploration operation, it will have to be terminated! The Egyptian government will never cooperate, and the Egyptian government will definitely detain us in Egypt and throw us into prison for smuggling antiques and cultural relics out of the country!
It is not impossible that this will even cause disputes between the two countries. I don't want to see this situation. In view of this, I still need to think carefully about how to deal with these Rosetta stone fragments! "
The voice fell, and the phone went silent.
After a while, the voice of the presidential secretary came again.
"Mr. Steven, I have already told Mr. President what you mean. Mr. President thinks what you said makes sense. He will contact the President of Egypt later to discuss the handling of the fragments of the Rosetta Stone.
Mr. President has a suggestion. If you can bring some of the Rosetta Stone fragments back to the United States, can you sell them to the American Museum? It can be purchased by the government or by the museum!
Someone will discuss the specific purchase price with you. Of course, it will be based on the market value of the Rosetta Stone fragments. You will not lose out. For your company, this is a very good deal.
In return, the government can come forward and negotiate with the Egyptian government! Let the Egyptian government agree as much as possible to let you leave Egypt safely with the antiques and art acquired from the Khalili market and other places! "
This time it was Ye Tian's turn to be silent, and he fell into thinking.
But he had expected this kind of result a long time ago. The moment he received the call from the presidential secretary, he knew that the one in the White House was obviously jealous and couldn't wait to fight the autumn wind. He was still greedy!
After pretending to think for a while, Ye Tian said:
"As you know, I myself have two top private museums under construction, and the construction speed is very fast. They are rising at a speed visible to the naked eye, and they will soon be completed and opened!
My private museum is in great need of heavyweight antique cultural relics and works of art. Top antique cultural relics such as the fragments of the Rosetta stone can become the treasure of the town in any museum!
Therefore, it is impossible to transfer all these Rosetta stone fragments. At most, I will only transfer some of the fragments. I plan to collect the rest of the stone tablet fragments by myself!
You can tell the President what I mean. It is estimated that the President of Egypt will contact me soon to discuss the handling of the fragments of the Rosetta Stone. Let's have a tripartite talk! "
"Okay, Mr. Steven, I will tell the President what you mean, and I will call you later!"
The presidential secretary responded, and then ended the call.
As soon as I hung up the phone, Ye Tian's cell phone rang again, and there was a seamless connection!
This time the call is from the curator of the Metropolitan Museum!
Don't ask, this old friend also came for those Rosetta fragments!
In the coming time, the curators of the British Museum, the Louvre, and other famous museums, as well as many top collectors, will call Ye Tian one by one!
Without exception, these guys came for the fragments of the Rosetta Stone. Everyone wanted to get those priceless treasures, and everyone was very generous!
In addition, some familiar historians and archaeologists, as well as senior figures from top auction houses, also called one after another, all for the fragments of the Rosetta stone.
Not only that, the major auction houses are also eyeing on Ye Tian's other antique cultural relics and works of art that Ye Tian swept from the Harley Market, and want to win the auction rights of those antique cultural relics and works of art.
However, Ye Tian did not promise any of them, but said that he still needs to think carefully before he can make a decision!
Just when Ye Tian was talking to these old friends, the convoy had pulled out of the Khalili Market and drove straight to Tahrir Square.
Behind their convoy, many other vehicles followed.
Such as the car of the US ambassador to Egypt and embassy security vehicles, as well as the vehicles of Egyptian government officials and experts and scholars such as Ahmed, as well as the vehicles of many media reporters.
There are even people following on foot, preparing to follow to the Nile Hotel!
Within a short time, Ye Tian and his motorcade arrived at the Nile Hotel.
Before the convoy stopped steadily, the numerous media reporters waiting at the entrance of the hotel had already rushed up like a tide. They shot the convoy and tried to interview Ye Tian for the first time.
Except for them, at the entrance of the Nile Hotel, the Minister of Culture and the Director of the National Museum of Egypt, with a group of experts and scholars, are looking here, everyone is extremely excited.
The Egyptian Central Government Building and the National Museum are both on Tahrir Square, close to the Nile Hotel. As soon as the live broadcast ended, the Egyptian Minister of Culture and the National Museum Director came here.
Surrounded and chased by many media reporters, the convoy came to a halt at the entrance of the Nile Hotel!
After confirming the safety of the scene, Ye Tian opened the door and got out of the car and stood in front of the hotel.
At this time, he was carrying a black portable safe in his hand, which contained a part of the Rosetta stone fragment.
Another portable safe containing fragments of the Rosetta Stone was carried by David. The fragments in that safe were relatively small and lighter!
As Ye Tian appeared, everyone at the scene looked at him and the black portable safe in his hand. Everyone's eyes were extremely hot, and they were almost burning!
Those media reporters holding cameras and video cameras, how could they miss this opportunity, and began to ask questions loudly.
Like the media reporters in the Khalili market, their most concern is the process by which Ye Tian found these Rosetta stone fragments, and what he plans to do with these priceless treasures, whether to bring them back to New York or keep them in Egypt!
Ye Tian ignored the questions raised by these media reporters. He just nodded and said hello to these guys, and then looked at the Egyptian Minister of Culture and the curator of the Egyptian National Museum who were walking quickly.
Because of their special and sensitive identities, the Israeli Minister of Culture Joshua and the Bishop of Kent did not leave the hotel even though they also went downstairs!
A few of them stood inside the hotel door, looking at the energetic Ye Tian outside the door, their eyes were red with envy!
As for the other members of the tripartite joint exploration team, those experts and scholars from Israel and the Vatican, as well as from Harvard University and Columbia University, have not yet returned from the Giza Pyramids!
It is completely conceivable that those guys must regret this moment and feel sorry for missing this great discovery today!
In fact, those guys have already received the news, they will be rushing back in a hurry!
Just now on the way back to the hotel, Ye Tian received a call from them. During the call, those guys were very excited and kept asking about the fragments of the Rosetta Stone.
While speaking, the Egyptian Minister of Culture and others have come to the front.
Before he could stand firm, the curator of the National Museum of Egypt couldn’t wait to say:
"Steven, let’s talk about it, how can you keep the fragments of the Rosetta stone in Egypt instead of bringing them back to New York? Those priceless treasures belong to Egypt, to this land, and to the people here!
I know that you like to collect top antique cultural relics and artworks from China. If you are willing to exchange, I will inform the major museums in Egypt to collect all the Chinese antique cultural relics and artworks for you to choose! "
Ye Tian looked at this excited old friend, then glanced at the other Egyptians at the scene, then smiled and said:
" Gentlemen, don't worry, how to deal with the fragments of the Rosetta Stone found in the Khalili Market is not a simple matter. I can't immediately give a proper solution.
On the way back to the hotel, Ahmed has contacted the President of your country and reported the situation, how to deal with these Rosetta fragments, I will discuss with Mr. President later!
If Mr. President allows ~www.readwn.com~ you can also participate in related talks and negotiations. According to my estimation, related talks will begin soon, so please be patient and wait for our notice.
Yes, I really like to collect top antique cultural relics and art from China. If there are Chinese antique cultural relics and art that make my heart excited in the major museums in Egypt, of course I can exchange them! "
Hearing his words, the Egyptians at the scene took a breath, and the heart hanging high in their throats was finally put back in their stomachs!
In their opinion, since the Egyptian president has come forward, leaving these fragments of the Rosetta stone should not be a big problem!
But how did they know that the person in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington was also staring at these priceless treasures, and it was even more impossible for Ye Tian to give up these Rosetta stone fragments!
After a few conversations, Ye Tian and the others walked into the Nile Hotel.
Following them, many employees of the Brave Fearless Exploration Company also walked into this five-star hotel. These guys have a metal trolley box. Each box looks unusually heavy and full of stuff!
Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help taking a breath of air-conditioning!
Steven, this **** really **** the Harryley market, this is how many valuable antique artifacts and artworks have been swept away, it's crazy!
