Chapter 1353: A Rainbow Deep Underground

Walking into the living room, Clément introduced the white man in his sixties in the living room.

It was an old friend of his, named Danielle, who lived on the other side of the Seine, not far from here, and who had nothing to do when he retired, so he came here to Clément to chat and pass the time!

Like Clément, Danielle's eyes flashed with a little horror when he saw Ye Tian and them walk into the living room.

But Ye Tian's sunny smiling face, and the subsequent series of performances like a spring breeze, quickly made him feel relieved and showed a friendly smile.

In the process of greeting and talking to Ye Tian, Danielle even had such an illusion.

Is this enthusiastic and cheerful Chinese kid in front of him the same person as the ruthless, ruthless bastard he saw on live TV?

In addition to looking the same, these two guys are so different in all aspects of their performance that it is impossible to believe that they are the same person!

After a few brief greetings, Clement took Ye Tian and them to visit this ancient Renaissance-style building.

Although he was already in the living room, close to the atrium garden, Ye Tian was not in a hurry to look through the underground of the atrium garden to see what secrets were hidden in the depths of the underground!

He didn't immediately look through the back half of the building, check the rooms in the back, and later there was time, so there was no need to rush at all.

At this time, he was already attracted by this ancient building, temporarily put aside the secret related to Napoleon, and listened to Clément's explanation while carefully admiring this ancient building.

"Before the French Revolution, it was an annex to Notre-Dame Cathedral, but it was not built in the same era, it was built in the late fifteenth century, a few hundred years after Notre-Dame.

Notre-Dame Cathedral is a typical Gothic building, while this apartment building is an early Renaissance style building that is more secular and humanistic,......"

Clement, whose mood has stabilized, introduced all of his buildings with a fluttering eyebrow, and the pride and love revealed in his words cannot be concealed at all!

Ten minutes later, Clement took Ye Tian and them back to the living room again and walked into the atrium garden.

It is a boxy atrium garden, with an area of about forty or fifty square meters, which is planted with some flowers and greenery, adding a bit of color to this old building and making it look full of life!

In the middle of the courtyard is a small fountain with tinkling water, and in the center of the fountain stands a marble sculpture more than two meters high!

It was a plump, curvaceous, young woman dressed in light veil, carrying a clay pot on her left shoulder, and the mouth of the clay pot rushed down, and the clear water poured out of the mouth of the jar and fell straight to the ground!

This fountain is very cleverly designed, and the sculpture of a young woman and the fountain are perfectly blended together, which is pleasing to the eye!

The first time they saw this sculpture, Ye Tian and they already knew that the inspiration for creating this sculpture and fountain came from Ingres's famous painting, "Spring".

When they visited the Musée d'Orsay before, they had stopped for a long time in front of the neoclassical masterpiece and were deeply impressed by its thrilling beauty!

What they didn't expect was that in the ancient building of the Île de la Cité, they actually saw another form of expression of "Spring", which was also very beautiful!

After stopping to admire the statue sculpture fountain for a while, Ye Tian said:

"Clément, this sculpture must have come later, right? It can be seen that it is inspired by Ingres's "Spring", but with an extra layer of light veil, it is suspected of adding to the snake!

If I'm not mistaken, where this statue is located, there should have been another sculpture standing before, where was the original sculpture moved?

Clément turned his head to look at Ye Tian, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.

It is worthy of being a well-known expert in antique artwork appraisal, it is really not given for nothing, the vision is really sharp, and it is not possible to accept it!

After a moment's pause, Clement smiled and nodded:

"That's right, Steven, this sculpture is indeed a later figure, and at the beginning of the last century, when the famous painter lived here, he had a love for Ingres' Fountain and specially asked for a craftsman to carve it.

I don't know what his reason is, maybe it's because there are underage children at home, so he put a light veil on this female sculpture, which is actually not bad, and it is more suitable for a family atmosphere.

There was another famous sculpture standing here, but it was removed when the First French Empire fell and the old building was auctioned off!

It was a two-metre-high marble statue of the Virgin Mary, which had been moved to the Palace of Versailles, and if you visit the Palace of Versailles, you might have the opportunity to see that elegant and valuable sculpture!"

Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately chuckled and nodded:

"I see, in two days we will visit the Palace of Versailles, and as long as the relevant exhibition area is open, we will definitely go and admire the statue of the Virgin and see which famous artist's masterpiece it is!"

Next, Clement continued to show them around the atrium garden, introducing them to their beautiful home.

During this period, pretending to be inadvertent, Ye Tian's gaze swept to the ground, and secretly opened the perspective and began to explore the secrets hidden deep underground.

At just one glance, the colorful and incomparably bright light from the depths of the earth almost blinded his eyes and almost made him fall into complete madness, and he directly exclaimed!

The dazzling and brilliant light even made him immediately withdraw his gaze, end the perspective, and dare not look at it even more!

He was afraid that if he looked at it any more, he would fall into a state of intoxication and go crazy for it, and then he would be in great trouble!

Clément is by his side, if he has any abnormal behavior, he will definitely not be able to escape this guy's eyes, and it is likely to arouse his suspicion!

This Renaissance-style building must be taken, no matter how much money is spent, tens of millions of dollars, or even hundreds of millions of dollars, no matter how much money is spent!

While forcibly calming down his emotions, Ye Tian had already made up his mind, extremely firm and inevitable!

In the following time, Ye Tian never looked at the ground again, nor did he see through the secrets of the depths of the earth again!

The dazzling light that he had seen in the depths of the earth just now was enough to explain everything, and there was no need to look through it again, it would only increase the danger of exposure!

After visiting the atrium garden, Clément led Ye Tian and them into the second half of this ancient building and continued to introduce the situation to them.

"I told you just now that I can't live here anymore because of the heavy property tax, and the property tax in France is probably the heaviest in the world, which can drive people crazy!

In order to lighten the burden, I rented out most of the rooms in the back, except for the first few bedrooms, where both students and other people working in Paris lived,......"

Listening to Clément's indignant complaints, Ye Tian showed a sympathetic look on his face, but in fact, he was so beautiful that he was about to bubble his nose!

The French government is so cooperative, buddy is a little embarrassed if he doesn't go crazy to ransack you!

When visiting the second half of this building, Ye Tian never opened the perspective anymore to explore the situation in those rooms with locked doors, there was no longer that need!

Unless there are masterpieces by Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo or Raphael in those rooms, it is obviously impossible for him to be impressed and let him see through the inside!

Seven or eight minutes later, Ye Tian and the others ended their visit, followed Clement to prepare to return to the living room, and then said goodbye and left!

When the group of them walked to the atrium garden, Ye Tian suddenly stopped and said to Clement with anticipation:

"Mr. Clément, this apartment building is so beautiful, full of strong human touch, intoxicating, to be honest, I love this old building very much!

If possible, I'd love to buy this old building and own this architectural artwork so that you don't have to worry about high property taxes anymore!

As for the price of this apartment building, Mr. Clément, rest assured, you will be satisfied, and that huge sum of money will definitely allow you to live the rest of your life in happiness and even luxury!

As you said, you have a daughter and two grandchildren who live in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, and after selling this apartment building, you can live with them and have grandchildren!

If you don't want to live with them, you can buy an apartment or go to Cannes and enjoy the warm Mediterranean sun without having to tie yourself to a house!"

"Ahh

Clement exclaimed in surprise and froze directly in place.

Betty and the others were also very surprised, and they all looked at Ye Tian dumbfounded, their eyes full of incredulity.

Immediately after, their eyes began to shine with excitement!

They knew in their hearts that Steven must have found something in this building, so they were ready to take this ancient building!

This scene is so familiar, they have seen it many times before, and each time it is accompanied by a huge surprise, and this time will surely be no exception!
