Treasure Hunt all over the World

The first transaction was completed quickly, and everyone is happy with the result!

Blanton left the Batley Hotel contentedly with a group of Gardner Museum and twelve top-level antique works of art that had been lost and recovered!

Of course, while they were excited, they were also heartbroken, secretly wondering how to curse Ye Tian!

That's 320 million US dollars! Anyone who is knocked out of such a large amount of wealth will be heartbroken!

They listened to Ye Tian's suggestion and left from the air on an Airbus H155. The escort vehicle on the ground and the SWAT armored vehicle followed up simultaneously, just as a cover!

As the Airbus H155 roars up from the hotel's rooftop tarmac, trading in the conference room has begun again.

Sitting opposite Ye Tian this time was Isaac, the director of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, several staff members from this museum, and the senior management of AXA Art Insurance.

In addition to them, there are many more artworks in the meeting room, and all of them are paintings, some from China, and some from Europe and the United States.

As before, several museum appraisal experts were the first to play, and they quickly came to an appraisal conclusion.

"Isaac, after the appraisal, we can say with great certainty that this is the batch of top artworks stolen from our museum, and each piece is authentic, without any doubt!

Renoir's "Getting Out of the Bath", Gainsborough's "River View", Pissarro's "Avenue in the Snowy Forest", we were able to take back all of them. This is really a wonderful day!

It is a pity that the three top works of art in China are leaving us, "Autumn Colors of Mountains and Rivers" by Li Tang in the Southern Song Dynasty, "Night Return in the Maple Forest" by Ni Zan in the Yuan Dynasty, and "Mountain Village in Pine Valley" by Bada Shanren in the early Qing Dynasty. up!

Picasso's "Woman by the Sea" is indeed his work two years after he founded Cubism. There are three paintings of the same theme, each of which can be called a masterpiece of art and one of Picasso's representative works!

To exchange this Picasso painting with the Chinese artwork in our collection, we agree with both hands. The Boston Museum of Fine Arts needs such a heavyweight artwork, which will make our museum even more outstanding! "

An appraisal expert from the Boston Museum of Fine Arts read out the appraisal conclusion with great emotion.

At the same time, the eyes of Isaac and the other appraisal experts were all focused on the Picasso painting, their eyes were extremely hot, and they were not willing to look away for a moment.

This Picasso's "Woman by the Sea" is a famous painting without an owner. It already belongs to Ye Tian at this time, and he exchanged it with the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.

The target of the exchange is the three famous ancient Chinese paintings, and three other famous paintings also from ancient China, as well as a large sum of green dollars.

Among the stolen works of art, the three famous paintings of Li Tang, Ni Zan and Bada Shanren should have belonged to Ye Tian, ​​of course he would not be polite!

What really matched Picasso's paintings were three other famous Chinese paintings and a large sum of cash!

Compared with Picasso's paintings, the market value of the three famous ancient Chinese paintings is obviously far lower, so they will exchange one for three, and a large sum of cash will be added!

In this transaction, both parties gain something.

The Boston Museum of Fine Arts paid a few famous Chinese paintings, but got a peak work of the top art master, so I am very happy!

As for the large sum of dollars, to put it bluntly, it was not taken out of their pockets.

The money was basically the insurance compensation paid by Ambow Art Insurance Company, and the Boston Museum of Art only paid less than 5 million US dollars, so there is nothing to be reluctant about!

From this point of view, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston has not lost much.

Needless to say, Ye Tian not only got six famous ancient Chinese paintings, each of which is a top art work, but also won a large sum of dollars, which is definitely a huge profit!

From this point of view, it seems that only Ambow Art Insurance has suffered losses, but it is not the case.

For them, the insurance compensation was originally going to be wasted, and they never thought that they could get it back, but now they can get half of it back.

It was already a pleasant surprise!

Even so, they are not prepared to take the loss.

Those who should really bear these losses are the group of international art thieves headed by Thompson! And those unscrupulous collectors!

Soon, Ambow Art Insurance will take all these guys to court and pass on all the losses to these guys.

In addition, there is a more important reason why Ambow Art Insurance is not opposed to the current transaction!

The FBI art crime team found the diary that recorded the records of the stolen goods, and began to follow the pictures to summon the immoral collectors who received the stolen goods!

In the future, more stolen antique works of art will surface, and the indemnities paid by various art insurance companies will naturally continue to flow back!

For insurance companies, this is the most important thing!

As soon as the appraisal expert read out the appraisal conclusion, Isaac couldn't wait to push a check over.

"Steven, let's start the transaction. This is a cash check for 30 million U.S. dollars, which can be cashed at any time. The pieces of Chinese artwork you asked for are right in front of your eyes and can be traded!"

After finishing speaking, he stared at Ye Tian closely, expecting to hear the most wanted answer.

But Ye Tian shook his head and said with a light smile:

"Mr. Isaac, don't worry. I haven't authenticated the ancient Chinese paintings you brought. After the appraisal is completed, it's not too late for us to trade!"

"Okay! You're welcome, although I don't think it's necessary at all!"

Isaac said helplessly, he could only hold back his temper and continue to wait.

Afterwards, Ye Tian got up and walked towards the three famous Chinese paintings he had just brought from the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, and began another one-man show.

As before, his appraisal speed is very fast.

While Isaac and the others were still stunned and exclaiming, he had completed the appraisal and sat back at the conference table.

"OK! Mr. Isaac, you can start trading!"

Ye Tian said with a light smile, waking up the few people on the opposite side.

Next, the two parties entered the transaction link, and everything went very smoothly.

Ten minutes later, Isaac and his party walked out of the conference room, left the Batley Hotel with four top-level famous paintings, and returned to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.

When Isaac and the others left, they were jointly escorted back by the SWAT police of the Boston police and the museum's own security forces. It was very safe!

In the meeting room, Ye Tian had already pocketed the $30 million check, smiling brightly!

Matisse, Jason, and the others were quickly packing up, and put all the six newly acquired famous ancient Chinese paintings into the temporary safe that had been prepared in advance.

In just two or three minutes, everything was settled.

"Jason, invite some gentlemen from the Harvard University Museum to come in and move in the four stolen antique artworks that belonged to them at the same time, so that we can start the next transaction!"

Ye Tian said with a smile, his whole face was radiant, very confident and full of fighting spirit!

"OK!"

Jason responded excitedly, then turned and walked out of the meeting room, with wind under his feet.

Soon, a group of people from the Harvard University Museum entered the meeting room. Everyone looked gentle and gentle, and they seemed neither impatient nor impatient!

But the excitement flashing in their eyes reveals the truest emotions in their hearts.

These few do not have Chinese antiques at hand. Their solution to the problem is very simple, which is to spend money. When did Harvard University lack money!

Furthermore, what they actually paid was not much, and most of it was insurance compensation.

Seeing them coming in, Ye Tian immediately stood up, and at the same time said to himself:

"Don't be polite to them, this is a bunch of guys who are not short of money, they can be slaughtered!"

Of course, these words cannot be said, what he said is a completely different set of words.

"Gentlemen, please take a seat. It is a great honor to sit across from you!"

"You don't need to be so polite, Steven, as long as you show mercy, it's better than anything else!"

Robert said with a wry smile, obviously already aware of being slaughtered.

"Hahaha"

Amidst laughter, several people sat down one after another.

In the banquet hall.

People gathered in small groups and chatted, and everyone talked about the same topics.

Either it was the international art crime group headed by Thompson, or it was the stolen top art at the scene, or it was Ye Tianhe's ongoing transaction, etc.!

While chatting, everyone is also tasting wine!

Everyone in the banquet hall basically held a champagne glass in their hands, and the amber top champagne in the glass exuded a mellow taste! Refreshing!

In addition to fine wine, the banquet hall also has the best food and desserts in Boston, which you can enjoy freely.

However, the focus of many people at the scene was not on the food and wine, but on the temporary meeting room in the corner of the banquet hall.

As everyone in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts left contentedly, a group of people from the Harvard University Museum walked into the meeting room, and there was a burst of discussion in the banquet hall.

"Wow! The transaction speed is really fast, how long has it been! It's the third museum. Doesn't Steven identify those Chinese antiques?"

"How could it not be appraised? This situation only shows one point. Steven's appraisal of antiques is so fast that it cannot be judged by common sense!"

Amidst the discussion, five minutes passed quickly.

The door of the temporary meeting room opened again, and a group of people from the Harvard University Museum came out, holding four antique artworks that originally belonged to their museum, and everyone smiled brightly.

Immediately afterwards, a representative of another museum was invited into that conference room by Jason!

Trading continues!
