Chapter 2129: Start Again (Happy New Year Wishes to Everyone)

It didn't take long for the boxes in the belly of the C5 transport plane to be transferred and loaded into the compartment of an armed escort vehicle.

Immediately after that, everyone got into their cars, and then drove off the runway and sped straight outside the airport.

As soon as the huge convoy left the no-go area of JFK Airport, two helicopters immediately roared from the sky, appeared over the convoy, and accompanied the convoy.

Soon, the huge convoy was driving into the New York City area.

Not surprisingly, every street the convoy passed through caused quite a stir.

"Bang Bang Bang"

The applause on the streets was one after another, completely waking up New York in the early morning.

When people saw this huge escort convoy, they gave their own applause and did not hesitate.

Accompanied by applause one after another, there were countless envious discussions.

"Wow! Steven's lucky guy is back, and he didn't have to ask for those priceless antiques to be transported back to New York!"

"I wonder if those antiques from ancient Greece and the Hellenistic era will be on public display, but if they are on public display, I must go and see how beautiful the gods of ancient Greek mythology are!"

Under the gaze of countless burning eyes, the convoy quickly drove through the streets and crossed the bridge over the East River, and soon entered Manhattan.

Unlike in the past, when the convoy entered Manhattan, it did not drive to a vault rented by Ye Tian, but to the Metropolitan Museum on Fifth Avenue.

Ten minutes later, the huge motorcade had arrived at the entrance of the Metropolitan Museum.

At this time, the Metropolitan Museum of Art has not yet opened, but all the staff have arrived at the museum and gathered at the entrance of the museum, waiting for the arrival of the escort convoy.

It can be seen that these guys are all very excited, and their eyes are shining, and they almost dance.

As the motorcade arrived, there was a thunderous applause at the entrance of the museum, which was extremely enthusiastic, resounding throughout the neighborhood and even the entire Manhattan.

When the convoy stopped at the entrance of the museum, Ye Tian and the others got out of the car, and Thomas and a group of high-level officials from the Metropolitan Museum immediately greeted him.

"Steven, after receiving your call last night, we called the staff back to work overnight, and we have cleared out the Beauty God Hall, right next to your 'Kings and Knights' exhibition hall.

Due to the rush of time, we have not had time to decorate the Meishen Hall, the furnishings in the hall are relatively simple, but the necessary display equipment is available, and we will quickly decorate it."

Thomas said excitedly, his voice trembling a little.

Ye Tian looked at this old friend, then said with a smile:

"It's okay, Thomas, there is time, we can slowly renovate, and these three sculptures will have to be professionally restored, and after the restoration is completed, the Beauty God Hall can be officially opened to the public.

The later displays in the Hall of Beauty are mainly classical sculptures from ancient Greece and the Hellenistic period, and the decoration should not be too luxurious, which will inevitably lead to the suspicion of dominating the guests."

"You're right, Steven, the decoration style of the beauty hall should be simple and elegant, so as to highlight the beauty of those sculptures of ancient Greece and Hellenistic era."

Thomas nodded in agreement, a look of appreciation flashing across his eyes.

Next, Ye Tian greeted the other high-level officials of the Metropolitan Museum one by one and was polite.

After going through these scenes, everyone got to the point and began to transfer those priceless treasures to the Beauty Hall in the Metropolitan Museum.

At the same time, everything that happened here has spread like a tornado throughout the United States and even the whole world.

Hearing this news, everyone was shocked by Ye Tian's resolute behavior, and they were almost crazy with envy.

In particular, those world-famous museums are even more envious of their eyes and can't wait to replace the Metropolitan Museum and place this beauty hall in their own museums.

......

In the blink of an eye, it was already around noon.

After placing the three priceless statues in the Metropolitan Museum's Beauty Hall and completing the relevant legal formalities, Ye Tian left the Metropolitan Museum and returned to his home on 110th Street.

As soon as the motorcade entered the street, it was seen that a large number of protesters and demonstrators had gathered in front of their apartment building, as well as many media reporters and New York police.

"Steven, the guys who are protesting and demonstrating downstairs in your apartment are basically Greeks, and the leader is the cultural counselor of the Greek Consulate General in New York, who has just come.

Not only here, but also in the square of Rockefeller Center downstairs of our company, there were also a large number of Greeks protesting and demonstrating, led by the Greek Consul General in New York, and the scene was very lively."

Cole's voice came through the wireless headphones, informing him of the latest developments.

Hearing the report, Ye Tian immediately sneered and said:

"It doesn't matter, the Greeks like to protest and demonstrate, so let it be as they please, I have long expected this situation, and with the usual way of the Greeks, they will definitely make claims.

However, everyone should be properly vigilant, in case the Greeks jump off the wall in a hurry, and no one can guarantee that there are not one or two hot-headed fools among the Greeks in New York.

Apart from the Greeks, have the Koreans been playing any tricks lately? Those guys like to join in the fun, and when they see the Greeks protesting and demonstrating, maybe they will get involved."

The words fell, and Cole's voice was heard again.

"Understood, Steven, I'll tell the guys to be vigilant, as for the Koreans, since we fought with 'our cause', those Koreans have disappeared and never appeared again"

As he spoke, the convoy arrived in front of the apartment building and stopped one after another.

With the arrival of the convoy, the atmosphere in front of the apartment building quickly reached its peak, and the scene became extremely lively.

The Greeks who stood across the street, stopped by the New York police, shouted hoarsely as if they had been beaten with blood, and desperately waved the banners and slogans in their hands!

"Steven, you are a complete robber, return those priceless treasures to Greece, that is the civilization and history of Greece, that is the spiritual wealth that belongs to all Greeks"

"Aphrodite is the ancient Greek god of beauty, not your private collection, Steven, hand over Aphrodite of Nidas"

For these impassioned demonstrations and protests, Ye Tian didn't bother to deal with them at all.

Getting out of the Paramount Marauders' car, he just glanced at the Greeks, then opened the door to the apartment building and went straight home.

The same scene, when he went to the company in Rockefeller Center in the afternoon, Ye Tian saw it again, and the protest demonstration on the square of Rockefeller Center was even larger.

He had adopted the same strategy as before, and he didn't bother to deal with the Greeks at all.

In the next two or three days, the protests and demonstrations of the Greeks never stopped, and the momentum became more and more huge, but Ye Tian focused on handling the company's affairs and did not take the protests and demonstrations of the Greeks to heart.

By the time he left New York for Europe again, the front of his apartment building and Rockefeller Center Plaza were still bustling, and the voices of protests and demonstrations were still boiling.
