Chapter 1972 harbors evil intentions

Prince William looked back at Ye Tian, then turned his head and smiled and said:

"It seems that this journalist friend knows Steven very well, you are right, Steven is indeed very shrewd and very competitive, and we have indeed paid a huge price for obtaining those extremely important priceless treasures."

"Hahaha"

There was laughter again, and everyone nodded in agreement.

When the laughter subsided, Prince William continued:

"I would like to make a point of mentioning that in addition to those antiques that are closely related to the British royal family, we also obtained a number of very important rare books and historical documents in the transaction with Steven.

The rare books were in the collection of the kings of Jerusalem, two large chests, almost each of which was a single copy, which had not been seen since the Middle Ages, and contained a lot of very important information.

By studying these rare texts, we can refine the history of Europe from the Middle Ages to B.C. onwards, as well as the history of the area around Jerusalem, and even change the history we know about it.

In addition to the rare books, there are many documents that record the history of the Knights Templar, from the birth of the Knights Templar to its demise, the time span is nearly 200 years, which is the best source for studying the Knights Templar.

These documents contain not only the history of the Knights Templar, but also the history of medieval Europe and the area of Jerusalem, and are first-hand sources for the study of the history of medieval Europe and the area of Jerusalem.

The collection of the kings of Jerusalem and the documents documenting the history of the Knights Templar, we also traded those priceless treasures from Steven and left them in London!"

With Prince William's words, there was a small commotion again at the scene and countless live broadcasts.

And in the ears of many European historians who followed this joint press conference, Prince William's words were like a bolt from the blue, shocking each of them.

"Oh my God! the joint expedition found the books of the kings of Jerusalem, which are truly priceless treasures!

"I'm going to go! There's going to be a magnitude 10 earthquake in European historiography, and it's all because of Steven's luck, and the damn Brits."

Just when many European historians were talking and envious to the point of going crazy, Prince William finally talked about the topic that ordinary people were most concerned about.

"We did pay a huge price for trading these priceless antiques and ancient documents from Steven, but it was not money, it was also antique art.

At the beginning of the transaction, Steven made it clear that in order to obtain these priceless treasures, he would have to exchange them for the finest Chinese antiques in the museum's collection, and he would not accept any other way of trading.

In desperation, we had to negotiate with a few well-known British cultural and museum institutions, and we reached an agreement to exchange their collections of fine Chinese antiques for these priceless treasures.

We will make a detailed announcement about the details of this series of art transactions, as well as the Chinese antique artworks used to trade, when all the transactions have been completed.

Although I can't divulge the details of the transaction for the time being, I can tell you with great certainty that this series of art transactions is based on market value and is a win-win fair deal."

Speaking of this, Prince William couldn't help but glance back at Ye Tian, and a look of pain quickly flashed in his eyes.

Regarding Prince William's words, whether it was many media reporters at the scene or many people in front of the live broadcast, they didn't believe it very much.

How is fair trading based on market value possible?

With that Steven's usual ruthless and greedy style, how could he let go of such a god-sent opportunity for crazy looting.

He will not hesitate to slaughter the British, and he will definitely be able to slaughter the British!

Although everyone thinks so in their hearts, but no one says it, isn't that self-deprecation boring!

Next, Prince William introduced the art deal, trying to get as many British people as possible to understand, and not to make extraneous protests and demonstrations.

In fact, in the eyes of the vast majority of British, those Chinese antiques and artworks, as well as ancient Chinese books and documents covered by clouds and mountains, are as important as priceless treasures such as the Stone of Destiny of Ireland and the golden crown of King Edward I.

In their opinion, there is nothing wrong with this series of art transactions, and they even make a lot of money!

Only some experts and scholars have a bad feeling in their hearts, feeling that the British royal family has been cheated and ransacked by Steven's bastard again!

"The next question, everyone is welcome to ask"

As the voice of the Vatican press officer came out, dozens of arms were immediately raised in the audience.

This time, a media reporter from the United States was qualified to ask questions.

"Good afternoon, Steven, I'm a reporter for NBC TV, may I ask what you are going to do with the gold and silver treasures and antiques that you have obtained from the Knights Templar's treasures, and will you transport them back to New York?"

What are you going to do with all the Chinese antiques that you have exchanged from museums and museums in the UK? Are you going to ship them all back to New York, or are you going to do something else?"

Ye Tian looked at the NBC TV reporter, and then said with a smile:

"In fact, this question has been asked before, and I have given an answer, and I am here today and I do not mind answering it again, lest some people be suspicious.

I plan to dispose of all the gold and silver treasures and antiques from the Knights Templar's treasures in London, and I don't plan to ship them all back to New York, as that would be too much trouble.

In particular, some antique artefacts, because of their special significance and preciousness, may be included in the list of art objects that are restricted from leaving the country, and it will be troublesome to leave the UK with them.

That's why I'm going to deal with the gold and silver treasures and antiques in London, and I've already done some of it at a private auction at the Ritz.

Some of them have been entrusted by me to major auction houses in London, and will appear in the auction market in London and Europe in the future, and only half of them remain in my hands.

In this half, I plan to exchange Chinese antiques and art in a different way, and I welcome collectors and cultural institutions from all over Europe to contact me to negotiate a deal with me.

As for the fine collections of Chinese antiques and artefacts that have been exchanged from major museums and other cultural institutions in the UK, I plan to ship them all to Beijing, not to New York."

"Steven, why do you only choose to exchange fine Chinese antique art? Why do you ship them all to Beijing instead of New York? As you know, your treasure hunt company is in Manhattan, New York!"

Another American reporter in the audience asked loudly, apparently harboring evil intentions.

Ye Tian glanced at the guy with cold eyes, and then continued:

"The reason is simple: in the near future, I will set up my own private museum in Beijing, and all the Chinese antiques and artworks that have been shipped to Beijing will be displayed in my private museum in the future.

It will be an all-encompassing top museum, which displays a large number of top Chinese and Western antique artworks, mainly Chinese antique artworks, and it will become a bridge between Chinese and Western cultures and arts.

China's economy has been developing rapidly in recent years, the people are getting richer and richer, and the pursuit of spiritual life is getting higher and higher, and only the Chinese know how to appreciate those precious Chinese antique works of art best.

What's more, the Chinese population is large, as many as 1.4 billion, what a huge market! New York, which already has many museums, and people prefer Western antiques.

In business, of course, I chose Beijing, which has the most potential, and built a private museum there, which will surely become an inexhaustible gold mine that will bring me endless wealth.

That's why I chose Beijing over New York, my treasure hunt company is located in Manhattan, New York, I don't pay a penny in taxes, in fact, I've always been a model law-abiding citizen!"

Hearing this, everyone who was at the scene of St. Paul's Cathedral or in front of the live broadcast rolled their eyes angrily and complained to themselves.

You're too thick-skinned bastard to be pierced by a bullet! You're embarrassed to say that you're a model law-abiding citizen, and that countless fools who have died at your hands will agree?

Not only did ordinary people secretly complain, but those enemies who hated Ye Tian's immortality were so angry that their noses spewed fire outward, and in a fit of anger, some people even almost smashed the TV in front of them.

While secretly complaining, everyone was shocked and had to give Ye Tian a thumbs up.

Steven, this bastard is really shrewd to the extreme, everything has been considered, no wonder he can make a windfall and be invincible, it really wasn't given for nothing!

At Ye Tian's suggestion, the Vatican press officer pointed to another media reporter, a reporter from China who had met him at Heathrow Airport before.

Since they are both Chinese, the questions are naturally asked in Mandarin.

"Good afternoon, Ye Tian, I'm a reporter from CCTV, may I ask, what are the high-quality Chinese antiques and artworks you exchanged? When will they be shipped to Beijing? When will your private museum be established?"

Ye Tian looked at this buddy, then smiled and said:

"This journalist friend, as Prince William just said, the content of this art transaction needs to be kept secret for the time being, and it will be announced to the public after the transaction is completed!

When will those Chinese antiques be shipped to Beijing? I guess it will be a matter of the next few days, and as for my private museum, preparations are in full swing, and it will not be long before it will be established!"

"Okay, next"

The voice of the Vatican press officer came out again, into everyone's ears.
