"Steven, can you leave this Queen Mary pearl diamond bow brooch in Brussels?
We at the Royal Museum of Fine Arts of Belgium don't have a collection of these antique jewelry, but I'm sure the Museum of Belgian History is very interested in it, and I can put you in touch with them."
Gatlink said with a smile on his face, looking at Ye Tian with a blank eye.
Urgen, who was standing next to him, was the same, his eyes full of anticipation, envy, and even jealousy.
However, Ye Tian shook his head firmly and rejected Gatlinck's request.
"I'm very sorry, Gatlinck, Jürgen, you don't have to think about it, this Queen Mary's pearl diamond bow brooch can't stay in Belgium at all!"
Hearing this, the two Belgian antique art appraisal experts immediately became anxious.
"Why is it impossible to stay in Belgium at all? If it's for monetary reasons, then you can consult with the Historical Museum, and the Historical Museum will be able to accept the valuation you just gave!"
"That's right, money is not an issue at all, there is a piece of French Revolution history hidden behind this top piece of jewelry, and that's the most important thing!"
Ye Tian turned his head to look at Betty, then shook his head with a smile and said:
"Gentlemen, you may not know that Betty and I are about to get married, and the most important purpose of our trip to Europe is to prepare for our wedding.
One of the tasks was to go to France to customize the finest jewelry, and the appearance of this pearl diamond bow brooch can be said to be just right, a gift from God.
If Betty liked this piece of jewelry, then this brooch beloved by Queen Mary would henceforth belong to Betty, no matter how valuable it was and how historically significant!"
"Wow! So because of this, it seems that we are out of play, what a pity!"
Gatlink said with emotion, his eyes full of regret.
Immediately afterwards, he congratulated Ye Tian and Betty and wished them a happy marriage.
Others, like Yu Ergen and Joseph, as well as Brother Zhang, also congratulated Ye Tian and Betty.
After being polite, Ye Tian continued:
"If Betty doesn't have the idea of keeping this brooch, I'm going to trade it for some of the famous Chinese antiques that are in the Louvre and Fontainebleau in France.
I'm sure that once the news of the release of this fine piece of jewellery spreads, the old guys at the Louvre and the Château de Fontainebleau will reach out to me to try to get their hands on this Queen Mary brooch.
In the unlikely event that we can't reach an agreement and can't exchange it, I'm ready to send this historic piece of fine jewelry to the New York Autumn Auction so that all interested buyers can compete on a level playing field.
The super-rich in the American upper class have always been attracted to antique artworks from European royal families for the sake of vassal elegance, not to mention the beloved things of the peerless Cleopatra Queen Mary.
In New York, as long as it is properly operated and promoted, this Queen Mary's pearl diamond bow brooch may even fetch a sky-high price of more than 50 million euros, which is simply impossible in Europe!
The last option is to sell it to your Belgian Historical Museum, which is basically non-existent, so I said that you don't have a chance, so you don't have to think about it!"
Hearing this, what else could they say to Gatlinck?
"I can see it, Steven, you're a greedy guy, exactly like the legend, this top piece of jewelry must be out of our way!"
"What a pity! Such a precious treasure has been hidden in Brussels for more than 200 years, and no one has found it, but in the end it has fallen into the hands of this fellow, how unfair God is!"
While Gatlink and Ürgen were full of emotion, they also looked at the Gent father and son not far away, and their eyes were full of sympathy and pity!
The same was true for everyone else at the scene, everyone looked at the Gent father and son with sympathetic eyes, and even felt that they were extremely pitiful!
As for Ye Tian, he didn't bother to deal with the pair of antique liars at all, maybe this was their retribution.
At the same time, Matisse and Taylor, who were at the scene, were secretly on high alert.
Not only are they guarding the Ghent father and son from suddenly losing their minds and breaking out, but they are also secretly guarding those two Belgian policemen, who may not be reliable!
After admiring the pearl diamond bow brooch for a while, everyone's eyes shifted and looked at the table leg in Ye Tian's hand again.
Judging from the fact that he was still holding the table leg and not putting it down, it was obvious that there was something in the table leg, maybe it was another piece of top-notch jewelry that was priceless.
"Steven, what's in that leg, take it out and open your eyes!"
Joseph said excitedly, his eyes fixed on the table leg in Ye Tian's hand.
"Well, I'd love to see what else is hidden in here, maybe it's a big surprise, and if that's the case, it would be great!"
As he spoke, Ye Tian stood upside down again and poured out a small bag wrapped in white satin from it.
The moment they saw this white satin bag, everyone immediately understood that this was another piece of top-quality jewelry sent by Queen Mary to Brussels, but was secretly intercepted by her sister.
There is no other reason why everyone has come to this judgment than because the Bourbon symbol on the white satin bag is exactly the same as the one seen before.
When he got this white satin bag, Ye Tian didn't open it immediately, but pretended to look at the dark compartment on the table leg, shook the table leg again, and then said with a chuckle:
"There's nothing else in it, and it's a bit of a shame that I'm looking forward to discovering the diamond necklace that Louis XV had commissioned to be made by the top jewelers in Paris to please his mistress, Madame du Barry.
Legend has it that the famous diamond necklace was set with 647 diamonds, weighed 2,800 carats, and was worth up to 2 million livres.
Although Louis XV custom-ordered the diamond necklace, he died too early and too suddenly to pay for it, and after several twists and turns, the necklace finally fell into the hands of Queen Mary.
It would be perfect to find that diamond necklace today! It would have caused a huge sensation, but it was clear that the diamond necklace that had never been seen before was not inside this leg!"
As he spoke, Ye Tian put the table leg in his right hand on the ground, ready to disassemble the newly discovered white satin bag.
"Steven, I have to say, you guy is really greedy to the extreme, and you still want to find that famous diamond necklace, it's really greedy enough to swallow an elephant!
For the French, the famous diamond necklace that has caused countless storms is definitely a national treasure among national treasures, and once it appears, it will surely shake the whole country.
Because of that diamond necklace, Louis XV was saddled with the notoriety of breaking his word, because of that diamond necklace, a cardinal was arrested and directly dismissed.
Also because of that diamond necklace, Queen Mary was completely convicted of misleading the country, and it can be said that that diamond necklace was an important cause of the French Revolution!
For that famous necklace incident, the famous French writer Alexandre Dumas also specially created a history, the queen's necklace, which shows the importance of the diamond necklace!
It's a pity that, according to legend, the priceless diamond necklace was smuggled by the famous female con artist Jenny, and was dismantled and sold separately on the black market, never to be seen again!"
Gatlink said angrily, but there was a bit of regret in his eyes, who doesn't want to see a miracle happen again!
As he spoke, Ye Tian had already untied the white satin bag in his hand, and the objects that were wrapped in it were presented in front of everyone.
