Soon after the White House press conference ended, Sotheby's auction house and a group of people came to the company first. They were all familiar old friends.

After welcoming a few people into the company's conference room and exchanging a few polite greetings with each other, Sotheby's Jewelry Director Larry said expectantly:

"Steven, just before leaving the auction house, I saw the public statement of the White House on TV. I did not expect that you not only invited the Pope to officiate at the wedding, but also invited Mr. President. The scene was too big.

I would like to ask, can I bring my family to attend the wedding day? To tell you the truth, when I heard that the pope is coming, my wife was so excited that she almost couldn't sleep. She was very eager to see the pope."

Not only Larry, but one of the other old friends of Sotheby's auction house on the scene, one of them counts as one. Who doesn't want to bring family members to this must-see wedding!

Hearing Larry's words, the others immediately turned their heads to look at Ye Tian, ​​looking forward to his answer, their eyes were extremely hot.

Ye Tian glanced at these people, then smiled and nodded and said:

"Of course it's okay. As long as the friends who receive the wedding invitation letter from Betty and I, they can bring their partners to Boston for the wedding ceremony. We are very welcome.

However, everyone can only bring a partner, not children. The church venue for the wedding is limited, and the number of invited guests is large. Some restrictions must be taken.

Because the pope and the president will attend this wedding, and there are many other important people, the security check on the spot must be very strict, which makes it inconvenient to bring children.

"At this point, we understand, Steven, it's enough to bring your partner to the wedding. Then, I can go back and have a business relationship. I believe my wife will be ecstatic to hear this news!

You are right, this wedding between you and Betty is different from other weddings. It is indeed not suitable for bringing children to attend. Those little guys are so naughty, maybe they will cause trouble! "

Larry said excitedly, wishing to take out the phone immediately and tell his wife the good news.

The other guys were the same, all of them were happy.

Then we talked for a while about weddings, the Pope, etc., and everyone started discussing the New York autumn auction season that has already begun.

The first voice was Greg, the sales director of Sotheby's Auction House.

"Steven, the auction of Asian Art Week has just ended. Based on the sales of Sotheby's and other major auction houses, it is no surprise that you have once again become the biggest winner.

In just a few of our Sotheby's auctions, more than a dozen antique works of art commissioned by your company were sold, and the transaction price was very satisfactory, with a total transaction amount of nearly 100 million US dollars.

In addition to you, a new professional treasure hunter named Bowie that emerged in New York has also made a lot of gains. According to our preliminary statistics, he is the second seller after you.

That guy had a lot of valuable Asian antique art in his hand, which was scattered and entrusted to various auction houses, and he made a lot of money during the Asian Art Week of this autumn auction season! "

Hearing this, Ye Tian and David immediately smiled at each other, everything is silent.

The biggest winner is me, and the second place is buddy! Bowie is just a cover. The antique works of art flowing out of his hands, without exception, belong to buddies!

However, how old friends like Sotheby's auction house knew the mystery, they were all in the dark at the moment, confused!

The same is true of other auction houses in New York. They are all paying attention to the newly emerging Texas cowboy, but they don't know that Ye Tian is standing behind the Texas cowboy!

After a short pause, Greg continued:

"After the end of Asian Art Week, this year's New York autumn auction season really entered its climax. It just so happened that you also came back from Europe and brought back a large number of top antique artworks.

Next, we can carry out deeper cooperation and bring more top antique artworks to the market. Many collectors are ready to fight!

Especially the gains from your trip to Europe this time are the focus of the entire auction market and all top collectors. Everyone is waiting for you to release those treasures, so the competition will end! "

As soon as his voice fell, the director of the Egyptian and Western High Ancient Art Department immediately said:

"Yes, Steven, such as the golden crown you salvaged from the bottom of the English Channel and the golden mask of the ancient Egyptian cat **** Best, have attracted the attention of many top collectors.

If the two top antiques are sent to auction, it will definitely cause a huge sensation, attracting countless top collectors and even related countries to compete, and it is very likely to create a new transaction record!

At the end of October, we at Sotheby’s have a special auction of ancient Egyptian and West Asian high antiquities. If you can entrust those two top antiques to us, we will definitely be able to give you the most satisfactory result."

After speaking, this buddy looked at Ye Tian expectantly, waiting for him to give an answer.

Ye Tian looked at this old friend, then smiled and nodded and said:

"Irwin, this is a very good suggestion. I am willing to consider it. Anyway, I am not going to collect the golden mask of the ancient Egyptian cat **** Best, and the golden crown.

According to my estimate, nine out of ten golden cat **** masks came from the tombs, and the golden crown was looted by Rommel. It may be contaminated with the blood of many people, and how many souls were attached to it!

This kind of antique works of art are not in my collection. Even though they are very precious and of great research value, I feel unlucky. Of course, the top Chinese antique works of art are another matter!

I haven't had time to study the golden crown. After my wedding with Betty is over and I return to New York from Boston, I will look for relevant experts to study the golden crown.

When the secret of the golden crown is revealed, we will look at the specific situation. If there is no need to keep it secret, I will talk to you about the commissioned auction. The special auction will be at the end of October, and there is no time."

"All right, Steven, I look forward to your good news"

Irvine nodded and said, somewhat disappointed.

Immediately afterwards, the director of the European Classical Painting Department jumped out again and tried to collect a few top artworks from Ye Tian, ​​adding a few heavyweight lots for his department's special auctions!

This buddy was staring at the top artworks from Napoleon’s treasures, such as the works of Renaissance masters such as Titian, Masaccio, and Dürer.

Once the paintings of those art masters appear on the art market or on the auction venue, they will surely cause a huge sensation, attracting countless top collectors to bid wildly!

And this is the scene that Sotheby's auction house most wants to see, of course, Ye Tian is no exception!

Same as dealing with Irvine before, Ye Tian neither agreed to the respondent, nor explicitly rejected it. He pushed back the time for negotiating the entrusted auction and asked the other to wait patiently for a while.

In fact, in Sotheby's auction of European classical paintings in late October, many lots were collected from Ye Tian, ​​and the most important finale belonged to him!

Just as Ye Tian and the others were meeting with Sotheby's and his party, representatives from Christie's Auction House and Bonhams Auction House also arrived at the company.

However, they can only wait in the rest area of ​​the company, full of expectation and fear!

More than half an hour later, Sotheby's and his party walked out of the meeting room, shook hands with Ye Tian and David and the others, and then left the Brave Fearless Exploration Company!

When they left the company, each of them had a bright smile and excitement!

There is no other reason why they are so excited, because there is an extra envelope in Greg's briefcase~www.novelhall.com~ There is a list in that envelope with a long list of valuable antique works of art!

Needless to say, the antique works of art were all entrusted by Ye Tian to Sotheby's auction house, so that they will be introduced to the market in this year's New York autumn auction season!

Without exception, each of those antique artworks is of great value and has extraordinary artistic value.

Ye Tian still has several copies of the same list of antique artworks, which were prepared for major auction houses such as Christie's and Bonhams.

After the Sotheby's auction house and his party left, Ye Tian called several old friends from Christie's auction house into the meeting room!

After a polite greeting, another round of talks began, and in one talk after another, the tone of this year's New York autumn auction season has been quietly established!

After going back and forth like this, it was approaching 5 o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Tian and the others finally finished their work and relaxed.

Next, it's time to go to the banquet hall on the top floor of the Plaza Hotel on 59th Street to enjoy a grand celebration dinner and toast to celebrate!
