After finishing the explanation, he quietly admired the bronze elephant statue for a while, and then Ye Tian turned to face Martinez and the others, smiling and saying:

"Gentlemen, if I choose to exchange with the Jigme Asian Art Museum, this bronze elephant statue must be included. This is a necessary condition for the transaction.

As you may know, I have a personal exhibition hall in the Forbidden City. After getting this bronze elephant statue, I will transport it back to Beijing and display it in my personal exhibition hall! "

Hearing what he said, Martinez and the others couldn't help laughing bitterly, with a painful expression.

"Steven, since you first mentioned this bronze elephant statue in Antwerp, we have understood that if we want to get the three pieces of jewellery from Queen Mary, we will inevitably lose this bronze elephant statue!

Now that we can accept your conditions and trade with you, it shows that we are mentally prepared to lose this treasure of the town hall, even if this is a very regrettable and painful decision!

We have also heard about your personal exhibition hall in the Forbidden City. Who would have imagined that this bronze elephant statue will return to China in this way and through your hands more than a hundred years after leaving China! "

Martinez said with a wry smile, still somewhat unwilling.

"This bronze elephant statue is the heaviest weapon of ancient China, and one of the best evidences of China's five thousand years of brilliant civilization history. The place where it should exist most is China!

I am convinced that only in that ancient land can this bronze elephant radiate the most brilliant light, and only the people living on that land can appreciate it the most! "

Ye Tian said emotionally, and looked back at the magnificent bronze elephant statue again.

"Steven, I don't quite agree with your remarks. A country has national boundaries, but culture and art do not. Even in France, this bronze elephant can radiate the brilliant light of civilization!"

Florent continued, shaking his head like a rattle.

Now of course you can say that, it sounds very tall, and this is your usual excuse!

However, when the buddy picks up the Napoleon treasure buried on Siti Island, I hope you can say the same, insisting that culture and art know no borders, then buddy, thank you!

Ye Tian murmured to himself, a look of contempt flashed under his eyes!

Of course, this was his inner activity, but what he said was something else!

"Everyone has different perspectives, and everyone has their own opinions. There is no need to argue about this issue. Let's continue to visit. I am also very interested in the group of early Western Zhou bronzes, "Ling Gui"!"

Ye Tian said with a light smile, and then pointed his finger at the location of the group of Western Zhou bronzes "Ling Gui".

His voice has not yet fallen, and many French guys on the scene have changed their faces and become very ugly!

Without hesitation, Florent, the director of the Guimei Museum, shook his head very firmly and said:

"Steven, you guy is really greedy. The bronze elephant statue and the group of early Western Zhou bronzes "Ling Gui" are the two most important Chinese bronzes in our museum!

You guy wants to catch them all in one go and put them all in your own bag. This is simply wishful thinking! It's impossible, this is not the Santouan flea market, you can let you looting like crazy!

You can only get one of the bronze elephant statue and the group of early Western Zhou bronzes "Ling Gui". If you replace both of these heavy objects, then the bronze collection in our museum is finished! "

"Don't worry, Florent, I only said that I was very interested in the group of Western Zhou bronzes "Ling Gui", and did not say that I must get it. You don't need to get so angry!

Let's go and admire the set of Western Zhou bronzes. I am very interested in the inscriptions engraved on the set of "Ling Gui", and even more interested in the ancient history hidden behind it! "

Ye Tian said with a chuckle, soothing the many French guys who were about to be impatient.

He knew very well in his heart that it would be almost impossible to switch to both the bronze elephant statue and the "Ling Gui" of the Western Zhou Dynasty at the same time, unless the heads of these guys in the Jimei Museum were kicked by a donkey!

Florent is right. If you lose both the bronze elephant statue and the "Ling Gui" of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the collection of Chinese bronzes in the Jimei Museum will completely collapse, and it will instantly become mediocre!

After calming down his excitement a little, Florent said:

"Well, Steven, let's go and enjoy the set of "Ling Gui" of the Western Zhou Dynasty, please follow me!"

After speaking, the Frenchman stepped out and walked to the exhibition stand where the group of "Ling Gui" from the Western Zhou Dynasty was placed.

Others followed, and Ye Tian, ​​Betty and the others did the same, admiring other Chinese antique artworks displayed in the exhibition hall while walking towards the "Ling Gui" of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

Time passed quickly, and it was six o'clock in the afternoon, and it was the closing time of the Jimei Museum.

After the visit, Ye Tian and the others, accompanied by a group of Frenchmen, left the exhibition area and returned to the hall on the first floor of the Jimei Museum.

In the past few hours, Ye Tian and the others wandered through the three exhibition areas of the Jimei Museum where Chinese antique artworks are displayed, ancient China, classical China, and Buddhist China!

Next, under the leadership of Florent, they went to the antique art warehouse located in the underground of the Guimei Museum, and enjoyed the museum's stock of Chinese antique art.

Due to the rush of time and the huge amount of Chinese antique artworks in the Jimei Museum's collection, it is impossible to look at them one by one, so I can only browse it roughly!

Some of the antique artworks in the boxes, Ye Tian and the others didn't even see the actual objects, they just browsed the inventory catalog and knew that there were antique artworks!

During this period, Ye Tian secretly turned on perspective many times and looked at the Chinese antique art collections in the Jimei Museum, but none of them were left!

In just a few short hours, he has become thoroughly familiar with the Chinese antique art collections in the Jimei Museum, and he has a very thorough understanding, far surpassing those antique art appraisal experts in the Jimei Museum!

Of course, it also includes the director of the Guimei Museum, Florent!

Returning to the hall on the first floor of the museum, after a few chats, Martinez immediately asked:

"Steven, you have finished looking at the Chinese antique art collections in the Guimei Museum, and you must have chosen the target for the exchange of Queen Mary's jewelry. Can you tell me something?"

As his voice fell, everyone on the scene looked at Ye Tian, ​​looking forward to his answer.

Ye Tian glanced at the crowd, then smiled and nodded and said:

"That's true. During the visit to the collection of Chinese antique art in the Guimei Museum, I did choose the antique art for exchange that made me fascinated. I can tell you about it.

Before that, I must say that the Jimei Museum is indeed the most collection of Chinese antique art outside of China. The exquisite and gorgeous Chinese antique art works are simply breathtaking!

To be honest, among the tens of thousands of valuable Chinese antique works of art, it is very difficult to select 20 favorite treasures, and it is also very difficult to choose. Fortunately, I finished this job!

Next, I will talk about the 20 selected Chinese antique works of art. The first treasure, as everyone must have guessed, is the bronze elephant statue of the late Yin and Shang Dynasty. It is also the most important one.

In addition to the bronze elephant statue, there are two bronze wares from ancient China, which also impressed me. One is the four-legged square tripod with inscriptions cast in the late Western Zhou Dynasty, and the 鬲 cast in the Spring and Autumn Period!

Let’s talk about the works of calligraphy and calligraphy. Two masterpieces from Dunhuang’s prosperous Tang period, representing the influence of art in the prosperous Tang Dynasty on Buddhism, "Puxian Bodhisattva Riding an Elephant" and "A Statue of a Walking Monk" also made me quite tempted!

Also from Dunhuang, the "Water Moon Guanyin" painted in the Five Dynasties period, I also really want to include it in my bag. The painting on paper with color and ink combines different cultural factors and is of great research value! "

Hearing this, the faces of many French guys at the scene were already dark, as black as the bottom of a pot! Everyone’s eyes are filled with anger~www.novelhall.com~ I wish I could rush up to beat Ye Tian, ​​and let out a good anger!

There is no other reason why they are so angry, just because the treasures listed by Ye Tianluo are all fine pieces of Chinese antique works in the collection of the Jimei Museum, and each one is truly priceless!

Although the anger was abnormal, Martinez and the others still suppressed the anger forcibly and did not immediately attack!

They also want to see how greedy this crazy **** can be, and how amazing his appetite can be!

Martinez and their reaction, Ye Tian saw all of them.

He also knows very well why these French guys are full of anger, and it is the same as anyone else!

However, he did not take all of this to heart. He still lists pieces of valuable Chinese antique works of art, showing his amazing appetite to his heart.

"There are still a few works in calligraphy and painting, which also make me tempted. The famous poet and painter of the Tang Dynasty in China, Wang Wei's "Snow Creek Picture", the Five Dynasties Jing Hao's "Twilight in the Autumn Forest,"..."
