After appreciating "The Death of Marat", Ye Tian was ready to take Betty to continue to move forward to enjoy another famous painting hanging not far from the side.

At that moment, a slightly familiar voice suddenly came from behind them.

"Mr. Steven, please stay, I have something to ask you"

Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately stopped and turned his head to look at his right rear.

He was stopped by an old acquaintance, the director of the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, Mr. Maeterlinck, whom he had met after the Boston incident and had made a deal.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Maitlinck, I said it sounds familiar, I didn't expect it to be you, what a coincidence!"

Ye Tian smiled and said hello to this old friend, and signaled to Taylor that they could let the other party come over, and this one was not a threat.

Taylor nodded and immediately ducked aside.

In three or two steps, Maeterlink walked up to the front and shook hands with Ye Tian.

"Good afternoon, Steven, it's a pleasure to meet you, I didn't expect you guys to come to Brussels, to our Royal Museum of Fine Arts, very welcome!

I was on the Grand Place in Brussels just now, and when I received a call from my subordinates, I rushed back immediately, but fortunately you didn't leave, so we could meet."

"Your museum is amazing, the collection here is even better, it's unforgettable, to be honest, the reason why I came to Brussels is to come to your museum, to "The Death of Marat"!"

Ye Tian said with a chuckle, sending a bunch of beautiful words that didn't require money.

"Thank you for the compliment, Steven, we are Belgium's most important museum of fine arts, with a large collection of paintings and sculptures, including some of the finest works of art.

"The Death of Marat" is our treasure, which is definitely worth a closer look, and there is also the "Rubens Hall", which we are proud of, which will also make everyone who loves art linger.

Of course, if you can transfer the representative painting of Rubens in your hands to us, then our 'Rubens Room' of the Royal Museum of Fine Arts will become even more brilliant!"

Maeterlinck said smugly, also showing covetousness.

Maeterlinck has long coveted the Rubens painting in Ye Tian's hand, and wants to take it into his pocket and add a top-level artwork to his museum.

It's a pity that they have a limited budget to buy top-notch artworks, and they can't come up with enough exchange conditions to impress Ye Tian, so they can only sigh and look greedy!

When his voice fell, Ye Tian immediately smiled and said:

"Hahaha, Mr. Maeterlinck, you know, I am a businessman, and the door is always open for the great painting of Rubens, Portrait of the Duke of Medici.

If your museum can accept the price I offered, or meet my terms of exchange, then I will be more than happy to transfer that top-notch work of art to you in your 'Rubens Room'

If you can't, then I'm very sorry! Reminder, that top art will be on display at this year's New York Autumn Auctions, and whether you can win that top art is up to your strength!"

"That's a top-level artwork worth tens of millions of dollars, how can our museum have that strength, you guy is really greedy to the extreme, and he won't leave us a chance at all!"

Maeterlinck said with emotion, unable to hide the disappointment in his eyes.

After a few small talks, he changed the subject.

"To tell you the truth, Steven, I have been in the Swan Restaurant on the Grand Place in Brussels from this morning until just now, inspecting the old building with a few other experts and scholars.

Pierre, the manager of the Swan Restaurant, said, "You guys want to buy that old Renaissance-style building, and you are very generous, is it true or not?"

After finishing speaking, Maeterlinck stared at Ye Tian's face tightly, waiting for him to give an answer, his eyes were extremely hot and full of anticipation.

Ye Tian nodded lightly, then said with a smile:

"That's true, I did want to buy the building of the Swan Restaurant, one because I like the old Renaissance building, and the other reason is because of the special historical significance of the building!"

"It's true, you really want to buy that building! Don't say you like that old building, or any other reason, I won't believe it!

You're a sharp-eyed guy, you're lucky, and you're a professional treasure hunter who can't afford to make a profit, and I'm sure you're not aiming for that building.

Can you tell us the real reason? Did you find some treasure or a valuable antique art, so you want to take that building and have a pot of money?"

Maeterlinck guessed very accurately, but would Ye Tian tell him the reason? Obviously impossible, unless he has a brain disease!

"You think too much, Maeterlinck, there are so many treasures in the world, and they all fell on my head, God must be too kind to me, I just like that old building!"

"I still don't believe it, you guy will never be untargeted, if it were anyone else, I might believe this reason, but you can't.

You're a magical guy, God seems to be a family with you, always favoring you, and anything magical happens to you, it's normal for me to see it!"

"Since you think so, then I can't help it, I guess no matter how much you explain, you won't believe it!"

Ye Tian shrugged his shoulders, with a helpless expression, and a little smug in his eyes.

Maeterlinck was about to say something, when suddenly, Ye Tian's mobile phone in his pocket rang, it was Brother Zhang, whom he met yesterday, called.

After glancing at the caller ID, Ye Tian immediately said sorry to Maeterlinck, and then slid off the screen lock of his phone and began to answer the call.

Immediately afterwards, Brother Zhang's somewhat nervous voice came from his mobile phone.

"Ye Tian, can you do my brother another favor? Please, we will be in that antique scammer's antique shop, negotiating with that damn antique scammer.

In addition to me and my daughter-in-law, there was also the professional lawyer you introduced us, as well as the cultural counselor of the Chinese Embassy in Belgium and two other staff members.

I followed your advice and invited Chinese journalists from major Belgian media, as well as some local news outlets in Brussels, as well as two Belgian policemen.

The momentum has been built, and I also got an urgent carbon 14 test report, your identification is right, it is a high imitation blue and white plum vase fired three years ago, it is not worth a penny!

After we came to this antique store just now, we directly explained our intentions, and showed the carbon 14 test results, and asked the other party to refund the money, otherwise we would sue the antique scammer in court.

Seeing the carbon-14 test report and our momentum, the grandson was obviously cowardly, but he still had a hard mouth, and he had to ask for an appraisal conclusion from an antique art appraisal expert.

The grandson claimed that he would only refund the money if he saw the appraisal conclusion of the authoritative expert, and the lawyer's intention was to let me sue directly, go through legal procedures to recover the loss, and ask for a certain amount of moral compensation.

But after all, this is a foreign country, not a domestic country, how can I have the time to stay here and fight with an antique scammer, what I want now is to recover the loss as soon as possible, and then return to China immediately.

As for the compensation for mental damages, forget it, this should be a lesson, and it can also make me remember it for a long time, for the appraisal conclusion of authoritative experts, brother, I can only beg you!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Tian immediately said categorically:

"No problem, Brother Zhang, we are all Chinese, we should help each other when we go out, and I can't bear to watch my compatriots being ruined by dead foreigners!"

Tell me the exact address of the antique shop, and I'll be able to get there soon, not only for me, but for a big name in the field of Belgian antique art collecting this time!"

As he spoke, Ye Tian glanced at Maeterlinck with ill will, and started the idea of this old friend.

This is Brussels, and what better antique art expert than the one in front of you?
