Chapter 1859 The Military Police of Cultural Relics (I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival)

Looking back at Tony's gallery, Ye Tian and they had left the gallery for more than ten minutes, but Tony, the owner of the gallery, was still immersed in the ecstasy of the successful transaction.

For him, can he not feel ecstatic that the price at which the two landscape oil paintings were sold before, which he had never even dreamed of before, has now become a living reality?

But how did he know what he had just missed?

It was definitely the greatest work of art he had ever owned in his life, and it was also the greatest wealth he had ever had, but it was sold by him for an almost low price that could be counted, and it fell into Ye Tian's pocket.

Just as Tony was in ecstasy, the door of the gallery was pushed open again, and two Italian men in their twenties and thirties were carried into this elegant gallery by a gust of cold wind.

Seeing someone enter the gallery, Tony immediately adjusted his mood, quickly put on a bright smile, and was ready to get up to meet him.

Without him getting up to greet him, the two guys who had just entered the gallery had already walked straight towards him.

This made Tony feel very surprised, and he unconsciously raised his vigilance, and he thought that the other party was not good.

Turin is no different from other Italian cities, with mafia and thieves and art thieves everywhere.

The fact that he just earned 70,000 or 80,000 euros has not been spread at all, who would kill him so quickly?

It's not possible, Steven's guy is ruthless, but he's very well-behaved, and he's a super-rich man, so he can't do such a tasteless thing!

In the blink of an eye, the two guys were in front of Tony.

While standing still, one of the guys took out a document directly from his arms, showed it in front of Tony's eyes, and asked with a solemn face:

"Man, we're the Italian gendarmerie of antiquities, may I ask you, what did that bastard Steven just buy from you? If it's a work of art, then what is the artist's work?

I hope you can answer truthfully, and rest assured, we are not targeting you and this gallery, but against Steven, the bastard, and we want to prevent that bastard from taking the national treasure of antique art out of Italy!"

Tony didn't respond immediately, but looked carefully at the document in the other person's hand.

When he saw clearly that the other party was indeed the famous Italian cultural relics gendarmerie, he couldn't help but shiver and secretly frightened.

He is a gallery owner who deals in art, and it is inevitable that there are some shady things in private, and at this moment he sees the legendary cultural relics gendarmes coming to his door, can he not feel frightened!

At the same time, a feeling that something bad was happening suddenly welled up in his heart.

Could it be that I was just ransacked by that bastard Steven? That baroque landscape painting is actually a priceless piece of top art, shouldn't it?

Although a lot of thoughts flashed through his mind, Tony's expression didn't change much, he looked calm, just a little surprised, and his acting skills were excellent.

Next, he truthfully told everything that had happened before, and showed the high-definition pictures of the two landscape paintings, as well as his own appraisal conclusions!

Of course, he also truthfully stated the transaction prices of the two artworks, without the slightest concealment.

He really wanted to hide it, so that he could pay a lot less taxes, but the two guys standing opposite were cultural relics gendarmes, and even if he borrowed his guts, he wouldn't dare to play that trick.

In case it is self-defeating, it will be troublesome.

At that time, he was severely fined by the relevant departments and absolutely did not run, and if he didn't get it right, he would be imprisoned, and even this gallery could not be opened, so he could only close the doors!

After listening to Tony's introduction, Pizarro, who was standing across from him, not only frowned.

Not to mention the realist landscape painting of the young Italian painter, with the vision and rank of that fellow Steven, would he be moved by a Baroque painting worth 60,000 euros?

But what is the value of that baroque landscape painting, which is the work of that artist? Could it be an unknown but priceless work of art?

In Pizarro's opinion, the Baroque landscape may well be worth a lot, but even if he tried to break his head, he could not be sure whose work it was, let alone its value.

In desperation, he had to ask Tony to send him pictures of the two paintings and other relevant information, and then left Tony's gallery with the other gendarme.

As soon as he walked out of the gallery, Pizarro immediately sent the pictures and information he had just received back to the headquarters of the Gendarmerie of Antiquities, so that the experts in the headquarters could identify the antique artworks before deciding on the next move.

At this time, Ye Tian and the others had already walked to the other side of Piazza San Carlo, walked into another elegantly decorated antique shop, and continued to sweep the antique art market in Turin.

Ten minutes later, when a few of them came out of this antique shop, they had another antique artwork in their hands.

It was a fine piece of porcelain from China, packed in a solid wooden box, carried by Ye Tian himself.

As soon as he came out of this antique shop, Ye Tian saw Pizarro waiting at the door of this antique shop, being closely watched by several armed security personnel, and several other Italian cultural relics gendarmes.

The moment he saw Ye Tian and them, that guy from Pizarro immediately said in a loud voice:

"Steven, I have something I want to talk to you about, can you let me go?"

When he said this, Pizarro and the other Italian gendarmes were in a depressed mood, not to mention how depressed.

This is Italy, on the territory of Italy, especially in the face of people in the field of antique art collection, when have these Italian cultural relics gendarmes been blocked, they have always been unimpeded!

But since encountering Steven, the damn bastard, the situation has completely reversed, and this bastard is rampant, and his own people have to be careful everywhere, so how can he be reasonable?

What's even more infuriating is that Steven, this bastard, is simply cunning to the extreme, and he is simply invulnerable!

Even if these people rack their brains, they can't catch any tricks, so they can only let this bastard ransack Italy like crazy!

"Cole, let Pizarro come over, we are all old friends who have dealt with each other many times, and we are quite familiar with each other, so there should be no danger!"

Ye Tian said with a smile and nodded lightly at the Pizarro guys.

Cole then took a step out of the way and let Pizarro go, only to stop the other gendarmes.

In three or two steps, Pizarro was already approaching.

Before he could stand firm, the guy put aside all the nonsense and asked in a solemn whisper:

"Steven, can you tell us about these antique works of art that you bought? As for their situation and specific value, we Italian cultural relics gendarmes would like to know about them!"

Ye Tian looked at the old friend in front of him, and then smiled and whispered:

"Nothing is impossible, Pizarro, and I would like to thank you for your concern, since more than an hour has passed since I arrived in Piazza San Carlo, and I have only bought three antique works of art.

The first artwork is a realistic landscape painting by a young Italian painter of the time, which depicts a beautiful snowy scene in the Alps, which I am going to keep as a souvenir.

The second artwork is a somewhat historical Baroque painting, also a landscape, with dark tones and no signature, and it is not known which artist it is.

The third is an antique, which I bought in the antique shop behind me, which is a fine porcelain from China, also hundreds of years old, but the specific value needs to be evaluated.

The transaction process of these three antique works of art is completely legal, and their combined prices are less than 90,000 euros, although rest assured, Pizarro, I will not pay a cent less in customs duties!"

Hearing this, Pizarro couldn't help but roll his eyes in annoyance.

"Steven, you bastard, are you here for that pitiful, or even negligible tariff?"

While secretly complaining, Pizarro also felt a deep sense of helplessness and frustration!

Next, Ye Tian dealt with a few more casual words with hypocrisy, and then said goodbye and left, taking David and them towards the last antique shop around San Carlo Square.

Looking at the backs of them leaving, Pizarro and several other cultural relics gendarmes were about to grit their teeth with hatred, but they had no choice but to watch Ye Tian continue to loot the antique art market in Turin!
