Chapter 1787 flew to Beijing

After learning how much the antique art in his hand was worth, the guys from Blackwater and IZO left the conference room and returned to the Paul VI Hotel next to the Vatican!

When leaving, the guys didn't say much.

They just glanced at Ye Tian deeply, and everyone nodded heavily at him, the meaning was self-evident!

It's safe to imagine how these guys will celebrate wildly when they get back to the hotel.

For them, tonight is definitely a fantastic night that will surely keep them awake.

Tomorrow, these guys will leave Rome and head straight to New York with those three top artworks, and then send those three top works of art to the auction house to make a big profit.

Although these guys left, Ye Tian and the others did not leave this conference room, they still stayed here, laughing and chatting.

Ten minutes later, several security personnel who were pretending to be tourists during the day and mixed in with the crowd walked into the conference room with several antique artworks!

They were the guys who received Ye Tian's instructions at the Bot Semen open-air market and secretly bloodwashed the antique shop that made him eat the closed door, Brandon, Justin, and Connor.

At the Porte de la Botceis, these guys were not easy to show up, and that would reveal their identities was now in the dead of night, and in the Vatican, there were no such concerns.

And what they were holding in their hands were the few antique artworks that Ye Tian had secretly informed them to sweep from that antique shop.

For these antique works of art, Ye Tian naturally knew it, but David and the others were confused, everyone was very curious and wanted to know about it.

After entering the conference room, Brandon and the others put the antique artwork in their hands on the conference table, and then stood next to them, chatting with Cole and them while waiting for Ye Tian to answer their questions.

Ye Tian stepped forward, looked at the antique artworks, and confirmed the results.

Without exception, these antique artworks on the conference table are exactly the targets he has set during the day, and there are no less.

After confirming the result, he smiled and said:

"Well done, Brandon, Justin, and a few other guys, these antique artworks are exactly what I set them for, and each of you will get a hundred thousand dollars as a reward!"

Before the words fell, there was already an ecstatic cheer in the conference room.

"Wow! $100,000 award, that's amazing!"

"Steven, you're definitely the most generous boss I've ever met, it was a perfect day!"

Cheering, of course, were the Brandon and Justin guys, all of whom were excited, waving their fists or high-fives each other, and celebrating in a big way.

The other people who were also in the conference room looked at these guys with envy, and they hated to replace them, it was a hundred thousand dollars, who didn't like it?

Ye Tian looked at the guys who were cheering and celebrating, and then glanced at the other security personnel, and then said with a smile:

"Brandon, this is the reward you deserve, other fellows don't have to be too envious, there will be many more opportunities in the future, maybe you will be the next cheer and celebration.

Tomorrow I'm going to visit two other famous antique streets in Rome, as well as some well-known antique shops, and if I have the opportunity to do it again, it's time for you to do it!"

The cheers rang out again, this time with the other security personnel.

When the cheers fell, Ye Tian got to the point.

He first pretended to examine them, and then began to comment on the antique artworks on the conference table.

This realistic painting depicting the landscape of the Milan canal is the work of the famous Italian painter and realist master Pietro Anigoni, created in the early fifties of the last century.

One of the first members of the 'Group of Realist Painters' founded in 1955, Anigoni is one of the most outstanding Italian artists of the 20th century, and he is even known as the last of the realist masters!

In honor of this outstanding artist, Italy established a gallery of Anigoni paintings of considerable size in Florence, and named a street and a square after him.

Going back to this realist painting, this is one of Anigoni's peak works, and the artistic value is extraordinary, and I estimate it at about $4 million, and maybe even more if it is auctioned.

Let's take a look at this impressionist painting, which was painted by the famous Impressionist painter Mary Cassatt, who is one of the few famous female painters in the history of world art.

Marie Cassatt was an American painter and the only American invited by the French Impressionists to participate in an exhibition, having lived in Paris since the seventies of the nineteenth century.

Because Mary Cassatt was a woman and an American, her paintings were extremely popular in the American art market, and every time they appeared, they attracted a frenzy of collectors,......"

Next, Ye Tian explained all the antique artworks on the conference table and gave their valuations.

As he introduced, there were bursts of exclamations and cheers in the room.

Just when Ye Tian and the others were cheering and celebrating and enjoying the joy of the harvest, many places in the city of Rome were shrouded in a gloomy mist, and many people were even cursing Ye Tian in a low voice.

It was a bleak night for many Romans, and especially for professionals in the field of Roman antique art collecting, to remember for a lifetime.

......

The night passed quickly, and a new day dawned in the blink of an eye.

Early in the morning, when many Romans were still asleep and sleeping soundly, Ye Tian and them had already gotten up and started to act!

As soon as the sun rose, a huge convoy of heavy motorcades roared out of the Vatican and headed straight for Rome's Leonardo da Vinci International Airport.

In the middle of this heavy convoy were two unusually sturdy armored escort vehicles.

These two armoured escorts contained all the fragments of the statue of Athena, as well as all the antique Chinese artworks that swept from the Porte de Porte Bazaar yesterday!

In charge of escorting and protecting the two armored escort vehicles, a large number of armed security personnel led by Ye Tian himself, as well as some members of the Swiss Guard seconded from the Vatican.

In addition, the two medium-sized helicopters rented by Ye Tian also took off at the same time, roaring over the convoy, following the convoy all the way and heading straight for the airport.

Not surprisingly, as soon as this heavy convoy left the Vatican, it attracted a lot of attention and caused quite a stir in the city of Rome.

The Italian antiquities gendarmerie and the Roman police reacted quickly, and their vehicles followed in a shadow, keeping a close eye on Ye Tian and their convoy.

Even the Casa Monica family, which is entrenched in the southeast of Rome, was very nervous after receiving the news, lest Ye Tian and them rush into the southeast of Rome with great fanfare!

Fortunately, this is just a false alarm, and those mafia scum quickly figured out that Ye Tian was rushing to the airport, not to make trouble for himself!

From leaving the Vatican to arriving at Leonardo da Vinci International Airport, the journey was smooth and without any trouble.

But when customs clearance at the airport, the Italian cultural relics gendarmerie immediately jumped out and demanded to inspect all the goods ready to be shipped to Beijing, with a very resolute attitude!

And they also brought a few antique art appraisal experts, obviously prepared, lest Ye Tian take some priceless top antique artworks out of Italy!

For their request, Ye Tian did not refuse.

He behaved very calmly, open to the inspection of these Italian cultural relics by the gendarme, and his team of lawyers supervised by the side, and recorded the whole process with a camera as evidence, lest anyone steal the beams and change the pillars!

The detailed examination began immediately, but Ye Tian knew it!

Those Italian antique art appraisal experts are not in vain, everyone has real talent and learning, and they are somewhat famous in the industry!

However, in their eyes, those Chinese antique works of art are not the top works of art that are restricted from leaving the country, and they are not on the relevant list, so there is no reason to detain them.

The fragments of the statue of Athena, which were completely disrupted by Ye Tian and scattered in a few solid wood crates, they didn't know them, and they couldn't determine their origin and value.

And this statue is so damaged that I can't see much value at all, and there is no need to leave it difficult!

Considering Ye Tian's huge influence in the field of antique art collection, coupled with the camera lens that is always facing them, those antique art appraisal experts do not dare to find fault for no reason, which is tantamount to asking for trouble!

In this way, it took more than an hour for the customs clearance to be completed.

Next, Anderson and his team escorted the solid wood crates full of antique artwork and fragments of the statue of Athena into the airport and boarded the Air China charter plane responsible for transporting the treasures.

After about half an hour, the Air China charter plane took off with a bang, roared into the sky, and flew straight to the east, heading straight for Beijing!

It wasn't until the large passenger plane rushed into the blue sky and flew out of the field of vision that Ye Tiancai secretly let out a sigh of relief, and the heart that had been hanging high in his throat before fell back into his stomach.

He then left the airport with the convoy and returned to the Vatican.

At this time, it was close to nine o'clock in the morning.

The ancient city of Rome has fully woken up and started a new day, and the people of the city are busy with their lives again!

But how did the Romans know that this storm-ridden city would soon usher in another storm, and it would be ransacked by Ye Tian again.

Ye Tian's goal this time is not the Porta Botesai open-air market, but the two most famous antique streets in Rome, as well as the well-known antique shops dotted around the city!
