Chapter 1447 The most mysterious treasure of World War II

In the exclamation, the British and French officials in the audience were all dumbfounded, and they didn't know what to say for a while, their expressions were quite embarrassed, and their faces were a little red.

Before the noise subsided, Ye Tian glanced at the boiling banquet hall and continued to say aloud:

"It is well known that during the Second World War, countless gold and silver treasures and precious antiques and works of art were looted by armies or taken advantage of by others and disappeared.

As a result, many historical unsolved cases and misty treasures, also known as 'World War II relics', are hidden in mysterious places, haunting countless people's dreams!

Among these 'World War II treasures', the three most eye-catching, and according to legend, the most valuable treasures are the Merx Treasure, the Yamashita Bongbun Treasure, and the Rommel Treasure!

When the Allies invaded Germany in 1945, Patton's Third Army discovered Mercks treasure in a mine in the German village of Merks in Thuringia, and then shipped it back to the United States.

The Merks Treasure is said to contain 250 tons of gold, countless amounts of silver and jewelry, as well as huge amounts of cash, and as many as 400 tons of art treasures.

The legendary Yamashita Hobun treasure encompasses almost all of the wealth of the six countries of Southeast Asia, and is said to be worth tens of billions of dollars, but its whereabouts remain an unsolved mystery to this day!

Legend has it that Yamashita was also captured by the U.S. military, and between 1945 and 1948, tens of billions of dollars worth of gold were shipped to the United States and deposited in 176 banks!

There is also a theory that most of the wealth of the treasure hidden under the mountain was transported back to the United States, and a small part was privately divided by the generals of the American occupation forces and transferred to the major banks in Switzerland and became private property!

The largest of these accounts was the gold account of Arthur MacArthur's son, Arthur MacArthur, at Credit Suisse in Zurich, which contained nearly 100 tons of gold.

A former president of the United States also has up to 7.5 tons of gold in his private account with Credit Suisse, but of course these are just legends, not necessarily credible, and there is no clear evidence to support them.

I would like to state here that I have heard about these legends from various sources, and I am not making them up and deliberately slandering anyone, so I don't have to bear any legal responsibility!"

Speaking of this, the corners of Ye Tian's mouth couldn't help but reveal a hint of a wicked smile, which was extremely obvious under the lens of the high-definition camera.

Listening to his words and watching his performance, everyone at the scene rolled their eyes in unison.

This bastard is so fucking cunning! In front of the live camera and in front of everyone in the world, after telling other people's unspeakable ugly things, another legend will pass the blame in an instant!

At the same time, in the office buildings of several famous banks in Switzerland and in some places in the United States, there was a burst of frantic cursing and the sound of smashing things!

No need to ask, the object of the curse is naturally Ye Tian, who is in the Regina Hotel in Paris and is talking eloquently at this time.

After a pause, Ye Tian continued to smile and said loudly:

"In addition to the Merkle Treasure that has been discovered, and the misty Treasure under the Mountain, the Rommel Treasure, which is also one of the three treasures of World War II, only exists in legends.

Known as the Desert Fox, Rommel was the de facto ruler of North Africa during World War II and was the de facto ruler of the continent.

In Rommel's eyes, it is said that there are only two kinds of chiefs, those who support me and those who do not, but there is only one way, support me, take money to support, do not support me, kill people and rob money!

Relying on this iron-blooded method, Rommel amassed a huge wealth during the war in North Africa, including countless gold, jewels and diamonds, and it is said that there were more than 90 large chests of curiosities alone!

It is said that even Rommel himself did not know the exact value of this wealth, but some good people have made a rough estimate that the value of this treasure should not be less than three billion dollars!

On the eve of the defeat in North Africa, Rommel began to disperse and hide the huge wealth he plundered by various means, but the final destination of that treasure is always a mystery!

In 1944, Rommel, who returned to Germany, was involved in the plot to overthrow Hitler, and after the assassination was revealed, Rommel committed suicide by poisoning under Hitler's persecution.

With Rommel's death, Rommel's treasure has also become a historical mystery and unsolved mystery, because of its great value, Rommel's treasure is known as one of the three great relics of World War II!

The shipwreck treasure we found in the English Channel this time is part of Rommel's treasure, and the discovery of this shipwreck treasure may help solve the mystery of Rommel's treasure!"

With Ye Tian's words, the scene in the banquet hall became more and more noisy, and the excited eyes of all the media reporters shone brightly, and their eyes were extremely hot!

Those officials from the British and French ministries of culture, their eyes have turned green, and everyone's eyes are full of endless greed, which cannot be concealed at all!

And on the countless live broadcast ends, crazy exclamations kept ringing out, one after another, and every voice was full of envy and even jealousy!

There are also some people on the live broadcast side, such as German government officials, Jews, and government officials in some North African countries, whose eyes are also shining brightly, full of greed!

As soon as Ye Tian's words fell, a media reporter from the audience immediately stood up and said loudly:

"Steven, according to legend, Rommel once organized a force of high-speed speedboats to transport the gold and silver treasures to Italy and then to Germany by land.

However, when the speedboat force reached the waters of Corsica, it was ambushed by the British and sunk by the British fleet, sinking to the bottom of the sea near Corsica.

If this legend is true, then they could not have appeared in the English Channel, and with the war situation at that time, is it too risky to transport gold and silver treasures through the English Channel?"

As soon as he finished speaking, another media reporter stood up and said loudly:

"Steven, others say that Rommel's speedboat force was just a front for the attack, and the real treasure was loaded on dozens of military trucks and driven into the Sahara Desert.

They abandoned their trucks in the desert and switched to camels, and walked for two more days before burying the treasure, and the treasure troop that had buried the gold and silver treasures was surrounded and wiped out by the British on the way back.

Judging from Rommel's later involvement in the assassination of Hitler, it is more likely that Rommel hid the treasure into the desert and did not transport it back to Germany to Hitler!"

Ye Tian looked at the two media reporters, and then said aloud with a smile:

"As I said before, this shipwreck treasure is only part of Rommel's treasure, not all of it, of course, if it is all of Rommel's treasure, it can't be more perfect!"

Hearing this, whether it was the media reporters at the scene, the officials of the British and French ministries of culture, or the people who were watching the live broadcast, they couldn't help but roll their eyes and curse angrily!

This damn bastard, she's greedy to the extreme!

That shipwreck treasure is worth hundreds of millions of dollars worth of gold and jewels and diamonds! This is not enough to satisfy the appetite of this bastard, and he dares to take the entire Rommel treasure without fear of death!

Oh my God, are you really blind? Why do you care so much about Steven, a bastard like this, who is so greedy, should just be killed by a thunderbolt!

Ye Tian saw all the performances of the people at the scene, but he ignored them and continued to say aloud with a smile on his face!

"I've heard the two legends about Rommel's treasure, but don't forget that Rommel is known as the Desert Fox and is an extremely cunning general.

Even ordinary people with a little brains understand the truth that eggs can't be put in one basket! Not to mention Rommel, who is as cunning as a fox, it is normal to scatter hidden treasures.

Although the English Channel was very dangerous at that time, it was still possible for civilian ships and freighters to pass, as I said earlier, it was a freighter, and the name of the ship was erased!"

As soon as Ye Tian finished speaking, an official from the British Ministry of Culture in the audience said loudly and unwillingly:

"Steven, what proof do you have that the gold and jewels in that shipwreck treasure are part of Rommel's treasure trove and come from North Africa, not from European countries occupied by Hitler?"

As this question was raised, everyone on the scene and on the live broadcast side looked at Ye Tian, waiting for him to give an answer.

Ye Tian glanced at the British official, and said loudly after a long time:

"Proving that the shipwreck treasure is not part of Rommel's treasure is actually very simple, this treasure hunt will be broadcast live throughout the whole process, and the live broadcast rights have been sold to the National Geographic Channel!

You will be able to witness the discovery and salvage of the shipwreck's treasures, witness the rediscovery of the gold and jewellery diamonds, and learn where they came from!

When that batch of gold and jewels and diamonds comes out, it will definitely shatter some people's unrealistic illusions, and I want to repeat here that it is my own wealth, and no one should want to covet it!"

Hearing his words, the British and French officials at the scene, as well as many people on the live broadcast end, couldn't help but change their faces and became extremely ugly!

"Alright, ladies and gentlemen, the introduction of the shipwreck treasure is here, and now it's free time for questions, and everyone is welcome to ask questions!"

As Ye Tianqing's voice came out again, the banquet hall immediately boiled again!
