Nothing happened overnight, and another day in the blink of an eye.

Just after breakfast in the morning, a large number of wishers and protesters who left because of the cold last night returned one after another, blocking the entrance of Four Seasons Hotel again, and the number of people was more than yesterday!

The slogans, banners, and flags of different colors and sizes in their hands are also much more than yesterday, and they are more targeted, and they are clearly prepared.

Of course, there is no shortage of idlers watching the excitement, tourists from all over the world, etc.

There are also reporters from the major news media. These guys are afraid that the world will not be chaotic. How can they miss such a lively scene? It is very good not to scream in the dark.

By nine o'clock in the morning, two or three thousand people had gathered around the Four Seasons Hotel. Standing at the entrance of the hotel, it was full of banners and crowds. The scene was very lively!

Ye Tian and the others were already used to this situation outside the hotel, and they were too lazy to take care of it, but they raised the alert level appropriately.

Because they have to deal with a large number of antique artworks swept from the Milan Canal Antique Market, Ye Tian and the others do not plan to leave the hotel today, so they don't have to worry about getting caught in the crowds outside.

However, the Milan police are very nervous, as if they are facing an enemy.

They sent a large number of police forces to the Four Seasons Hotel to maintain order on the scene, lest the protest would be exploited and eventually turn into a riot.

Just after nine o'clock in the morning, the first group of guests that Ye Tian was waiting for passed through the turbulent crowd and finally arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel.

These guests came from several top auction houses such as Sotheby's and Christie's, and four top art insurance companies such as AXA.

Among them are managers, department heads, civilian staff, lawyers, and antique art appraisal experts from major auction houses and art insurance companies, as well as many fully armed security personnel.

Dozens of them walked into the Four Seasons Hotel mightily, which caused a sensation.

Just like in Florence before, Ye Tian did not intend to bring back the antique art from the Milan Canal Antique Market, but prepared to dispose of them on the spot, saving trouble!

Milan is the most prosperous city in Italy and one of the economic centers of Europe. The antique art auction market is very developed and mature enough to digest this batch of antique art.

Of course, this does not include Leonardo’s masterpieces, "Lisa Gladini", and a few antique artworks from China.

As for Bowie's harvest, he will bring it back to New York, and slowly sell it in the New York antique art market and even the antique art market in the United States to maximize the benefits!

After the personnel from the major auction houses and art insurance companies arrived, Cole and the others immediately began an identity screening to make sure that no ill-intentioned guys were among them, trying to fish in troubled waters.

After one by one verification, the identity of these guys is not problematic and trustworthy.

Later, these professionals were able to enter the floor where Ye Tian and the others were located, and then started work.

In the following time, they began to identify the antique art from the Canal Antique Market one by one, and then signed a commission auction contract and the corresponding art insurance contract.

In order to avoid being calculated and to ensure that his own interests are not infringed, Ye Tian has given a valuation for each antique art and formulated a reasonable auction reserve price!

Busy, time passed quickly.

Approaching 12 o'clock in the morning, Jason flew to Milan with two company employees and rushed to the Four Seasons Hotel.

In addition, some of the Italian super-rich, such as Maria and Berlusconi who were publicly named by Ye Tian, ​​their art dealers called one after another and asked about the purchase of "Lisa Gladini"!

In addition to them, there are many high-level officials of famous museums, top art dealers, and top collectors who also called in one after another, also for "Lisa Gladini".

Among them, there are many top Italian collectors and famous museums, and there are also famous museums and top collectors from other parts of the world. All of them are very enthusiastic and sincere!

The emergence of "Lisa Gladini" has shaken the entire world, attracted the attention of countless people, and attracted countless coveted eyes.

Ye Tian used the same excuse to stop these purchase requests.

He told these potential buyers that the appraisal of "Lisa Gladini" has not yet been completed, and he will consider transferring this masterpiece of Leonardo da Vinci or public auction when the appraisal is completed!

In fact, he did this for another reason!

His purpose is the ancient street near Sforza Castle, the Leonardo’s former residence that may exist on that street, and the secrets hidden behind it.

If Leonardo’s former home is really on that street and there are hidden secrets, then the line of Latin on the back of "Lisa Gladini" must not be revealed in advance!

Only when you discover the former residence of Leonardo da Vinci, or buy the old building, or even the street, and completely grasp the hidden secrets, can you sell Lisa Gladini.

By then, even if people knew that the street was closely related to Leonardo, and that Leonardo’s former residence was on that street, it would be too late.

Ye Tian recruited Jason and the others from New York to do this.

The time soon came to about three o'clock in the afternoon, and the appraisal of many antique artworks was finally completed, and the entrusted auction contracts and artwork insurance contracts were all completed.

Next, you can take away those valuable antique artworks.

In view of the situation outside the Four Seasons Hotel, out of safety considerations, the auction houses and the art insurance company decided to take the air **** method to transfer the antique art.

Soon, helicopters from several top art insurance companies flew over the Four Seasons Hotel and started the transfer work!

Two medium-sized helicopters under Ye Tian were responsible for escorting.

After coordination, two police helicopters of the Milan police also joined in to **** to prevent accidents.

Some of the guys who were embarrassed and mixed in the crowd at the entrance of the hotel were very disappointed when they saw this scene, but they were helpless and could only watch.

It didn't take long for the antique artworks that Ye Tian swept from the Milan Canal Antique Market to be transported away and transported to the major auction houses for storage.

In the next few months, or even a year or two, these antique works of art will appear in major auctions in Italy, continuously bringing huge wealth to Ye Tian.

Not all antique artworks are entrusted to auction houses. Ye Tian still has a few very good Chinese antique artworks in his hands, which will soon be shipped to Beijing.

After the last batch of antique artworks was taken away by helicopter, the staff of those auction houses and art insurance companies were also preparing to leave and return to their respective companies for business.

However, Ye Tian retained the managers of the four top art insurance companies.

After all the others left, he said to the managers of the four art insurance companies:

"Gentlemen, the reason I left you is because there is a big business to hand over to you. I hope that your four companies will jointly underwrite "Lisa Gladini" with an insurance amount of 2 billion euros!"

Before the words were over, the four art insurance company managers seemed to be electrocuted. They jumped up from the sofa, holding their heads and exclaiming.

"God! I heard you right? Steven, which companies are you going to give us the insurance business of Lisa Gladini?"

"Wow! The insurance amount of 2 billion euros, this is definitely a business that has never been seen in the art insurance field. It is crazy!"

Looking at these four almost crazy guys, Ye Tian smiled and nodded and said:

"You heard it right, gentlemen, I do want to give you the insurance business of Lisa Gladini, and it must be joint underwriting, and at least two insurance companies must be involved.

The reason why the four art insurance companies of you are required to jointly underwrite the insurance, to put it bluntly, is to allow your companies to contain and supervise each other, so as to better protect my interests.

The insurance amount is 2 billion euros, which is not wrong. The reason for setting this amazing amount is to compare the value of the "Mona Lisa". To be honest, this amount is still a bit low.

There is no doubt that in terms of a single piece of antique art, this is definitely the largest art insurance in history. There is no one before, and once it is announced, it will definitely cause a huge sensation.

This time we come to Italy and Milan, we still have a lot of things to do. It is impossible to keep "Lisa Gladini" with us all the time. That would be a lot of inconvenience and very unsafe.

For safety reasons, I will choose your four art insurance companies to jointly underwrite this priceless treasure. Only in this way can we free our hands and feet to do other things.

Of course, if you want to take over this oily business, you must meet some of my conditions. The first is confidentiality, and you must not disclose the location of "Lisa Gladini".

Secondly, you must ensure that this priceless treasure is absolutely safe, otherwise your four art insurance companies will have to face the sky-high claim of up to 2 billion euros, and you will have to pay a penny.

Once you take this business, I will put "Lisa Gladini" in a portable titanium safe in person, seal this priceless treasure, and hand it to you.

Or I will put this da Vinci painting in a safe in front of you. Without my permission, none of you can open the safe or vault~www.novelhall.com~ This masterpiece of Da Vinci has been hidden for more than a hundred years, and coupled with its long history of more than five hundred years, it is quite fragile, and any careless behavior may destroy it.

I can tell you clearly that this is a short-term artwork insurance contract. It won’t be long before I will proceed to deal with this oil painting, or sell it, or publicly auction it.

Even so, this art insurance business is still full of oil and water, and it will also bring huge attention to your insurance companies. It is a golden advertising opportunity! "

Hearing what Ye Tian said, the four art insurance company managers couldn't help being silent.

After a while, one of the buddies said:

"Steven, I must admit that this business is extremely attractive, but it is too big. Several of us don't have such a big decision-making power. We have to report to the top of the company.

Another point is that if our four art insurance companies jointly underwrite insurance, many issues will inevitably be involved, and several of our companies also need to coordinate,..."
