After getting to know each other, the French president immediately lowered his voice and said:

"Monsieur Steven, I must emphasize that the treasures of Napoleon belong to France, to the wealth of all the French people, and I hope you will leave them in France!

Especially the two original editions of the Napoleonic Code, as well as the documents about Napoleon, they are too important to leave France!"

When he said this, he always had a warm smile on his face, and it looked like he was chatting with a friend he hadn't seen for a long time!

Antoine, who was in charge of translation next to him, immediately translated this passage word for word!

Ye Tian also responded with a bright smile, but his answer was categorical and unquestionable.

"Mr. President, it is undeniable that more than 200 years ago, the treasure of Napoleon did belong to France, to all the French people, and to the wealth shared by all the people of this country!

But back at the beginning of the 19th century, when the historic building was auctioned off and successfully sold, the Napoleonic treasure no longer belonged to France, and the moment the auction fell it became private property!

After several changes of hands, to this day, the building has become my private property, and the treasures of Napoleon, buried deep underground, have also been successfully owned by me, which is indisputable!

I understand and am glad that the French government and people want to keep Napoleon's treasures, but it depends on your offer, and I hope that the result will be happy!"

Hearing this, the French president's face immediately turned cold, and a trace of anger quickly flashed in his eyes.

The same goes for the few Frenchmen standing next to him, each with anger in their eyes, but helpless!

Knowing that this was not the place to talk, and that there was no reason to talk about it, the French president very wisely changed the subject, so as not to stiffen the atmosphere!

After a few words of greeting and some nonsense without any nutrition, Ye Tian and the French president introduced the people around them respectively.

The old French man in his fifties and sixties was none other than the French Minister of Culture, in addition to a legal adviser to the president's office, and a staff member.

Ye Tian shook hands with these French people one by one, introduced himself, and his face was always filled with a warm smile, and his performance was impeccable.

Then, Ye Tian led the French president and his party into the gate and disappeared from the Avenue of Chanunes!

After entering this historical building, Ye Tian, as the owner, briefly introduced this early Renaissance style building to these French people, and expressed his appreciation for the urban protection measures of Paris!

Listening to his introduction, the French president and his entourage were depressed, but they had nowhere to vent!

The treasure of Napoleon was hidden in Paris for more than 200 years under the noses of countless French people, but no one found it, and finally cheapened Steven, a greedy bastard!

As soon as he thought of this, the French president couldn't help but feel distressed and angry!

Not only him, but everyone else in France is the same, and some even have a hatred for the Clement family who sold this historic building!

As they spoke, everyone had entered the living room.

Next, naturally, it was another introduction and greetings, and Ye Tian introduced everyone in the living room.

Just like when he was outside, the French president behaved very approachable, greeting everyone with a smile and shaking hands, which made people feel like a spring breeze!

This is a politician, and one of the politicians who do it at the top!

After doing these superficial efforts and everyone sat down, the eyes of the French president and his entourage immediately fell on the portable alloy safe in Ye Tian's hand.

In previous live broadcasts, this portable safe had been presented, so all these French people knew each other and knew what was inside.

Without the slightest hesitation, as soon as he sat down on the sofa, the French president pointed to this portable safe and said:

"Steven, this safe must contain the two original copies of the Napoleonic Code, can you take them out so that we can enjoy them?"

If possible, after the talks, I'd like to go to that secret room deep underground to see the precious documents and other top antiques!"

Hearing this, everyone at the scene looked at Ye Tian, and everyone's eyes were extremely hot and full of anticipation!

Except for Ye Tian himself, as well as Martinez and Antoine, everyone else in the living room had only seen the two original versions of "Napoleon's Code" on the live broadcast screen, and none of them had the opportunity to see it with their own eyes!

Who wouldn't want to see these two priceless treasures for themselves, even Martinez and Antoine would like to admire these two French national treasures again!

Ye Tian looked at the French president, glanced at the crowd at the scene, and then nodded with a smile and said:

"It is better to be respectful than to obey, and since Mr. President and all of you here want to enjoy the two original editions of the Napoleonic Code, I cannot disappoint you.

As for going to the underground secret room to visit, there is no problem, but before you go down, you must wear a full set of protective equipment, after all, it has been closed for more than two hundred years!"

As he spoke, Ye Tian reached out and picked up the portable alloy safe, gently placed it on the coffee table, and then pressed his fingerprint, entered the password, and opened the sturdy safe!

What appeared next was not the two original editions of the Napoleonic Code, but a gray sheet of moisture-proof oiled paper.

The movement of Ye Tian's hand stopped, and he turned his head to Taylor next to him and said:

"Taylor, you go and turn on the wall lamps, and then close the curtains on all the windows, and try not to let in natural light to let in so as not to damage these two codes!

These two original editions of the Napoleonic Code have been hidden in underground vaults for more than 200 years, and they have become somewhat fragile, so we must be extremely cautious."

"Okay, Steven"

Taylor nodded in response and immediately went into action.

Seeing Ye Tian's arrangement, the French president and his entourage couldn't help but nod slightly, and a rare glimmer of appreciation appeared in their eyes!

In the blink of an eye, the living room was dark, and only the light of the wall lamps was on, and the light was very soft.

Even NBC and two other news outlets were very cooperative, turning off their respective spotlights for filming.

The lighting conditions were already suitable, Ye Tian took out two pairs of white gloves, handed one pair to the French president, and put one on his hand, and explained loudly:

"These two Napoleonic Codes are extremely important historical documents, and they have been hidden in underground vaults for a long time, so in order to avoid damage from the sweat on your hands, you must wear gloves when looking at them!"

"Okay, Steven"

The French president nodded in response, and then put on the white gloves.

Then, Ye Tian gently uncovered the moisture-proof oil paper and displayed the original version of the "Napoleonic Code" covered below in front of everyone!

The moment they saw the blue velvet cover of the Napoleonic Code, all the French people at the scene cheered excitedly.

"Wow! The binding of this Napoleonic Code is so beautiful, I have only heard of this version before, but I have never seen it, I didn't expect it to actually exist, it is incredible!"

"There is no doubt that this is a well-deserved French national treasure, one of the most precious pieces of evidence left by the French Revolution!"

Just when these French people were full of emotion, Ye Tian carefully took out a copy of the "Napoleonic Code" from the safe and handed it to the French president, so that this one could also enjoy it!

"Mr. President, this is the original version of the Napoleonic Code, which took four and a half years and 102 discussions by famous legal experts such as Portalis!

This is the greatest revolutionary achievement of the magnificent French Revolution, and it is also the proudest achievement of Napoleon's life, which has radiated brilliant light since the day it was born.

Open the cover of this blue velvet, and you can see the name of this code, in the preamble of the code, which is the legendary 39 articles, which are different from the code that was promulgated and implemented after the deletion.

On the last page of the Codex, you will also find a great surprise, with the signature of the four-member drafting committee headed by Portalis, as well as the autograph of Napoleon!"

Before the words fell, the scene immediately boiled, and all the French exclaimed excitedly.

"Oh my God! The signature of the four-member drafting committee, and Napoleon's autograph, which has never appeared in any other Napoleonic Code, has not even been heard of!"

"That's right, this is definitely the first time that the Napoleonic Code in the National Library has only the signature of Potalis!"

In the exclamation, Martinez and Antoine both looked at Ye Tian, and their eyes were called a complaint!

When he was in the underground secret room before, Ye Tian didn't show them the situation on the last page of the codex, and he hurriedly closed the code after taking a look!

How did they know that the last page of the code still hid such a great secret, and could they not feel grief and regret?

After calming down a little, the French president gently opened the original edition of the Napoleonic Code in his hand and began to browse the contents recorded in it!

Ye Tian clearly saw that the French president's hand was trembling slightly, which was caused by excitement!
