While seeing Jason and the others, Ye Tian also nodded lightly at these three guys, the movement was very small and very hidden, no one noticed it at all!

Immediately afterwards, Jason's familiar voice came from the headphones.

"Steven, we have walked Vincenzo Monte Avenue from beginning to end, and have a general understanding of the situation on this street. Let me introduce it to you now.

This street was built in the middle of the fourteenth century. It was originally a street with a length of more than 200 meters, and its width was relatively average. There were no prominent figures living here.

By the middle of the fifteenth century, the Sforza family became the rulers of Milan and began to build the Sforza Castle, which was also included in it and became a subsidiary street of the castle.

Then until 1499, the rule of the Sforza family in Milan was ended by the French King Louis XII. This ancient street has always belonged to the Sforza family.

During this period, many Renaissance-style buildings were built on this street, and some of them may have been created by Leonardo da Vinci.

But this is just a conjecture, and there is no real evidence to support it. We roughly checked the literature related to this street and did not find the shadow of Leonardo."

Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately smiled and said in a low voice:

"This kind of conjecture is not unreasonable. After Leonardo left Florence and came to Milan, he quickly became acquainted with Ludovico Sforza, Duke of Milan, and became an irresistible friend.

Soon after that, he became the royal painter of the Duke of Milan. In addition, he has another title, that is, the military engineer of the Duke of Milan, in charge of the construction of military projects.

During his tenure as a military engineer, his main duty was to strengthen the defense of Sforza Castle and to build Sforza Castle into the new political center of the city of Milan.

He made a plan to expand a rectangular square in front of the castle and build an avenue extending to Milan's Duomo Square as the main axis of the city, which is now Dante Street.

Vincenzo Monte Avenue is an affiliated street of Sforza Castle and is adjacent to the castle. Its location is very important. It is entirely possible that Leonardo da Vinci will preside over the construction of some buildings here.

As for why there is no relevant textual information retained, perhaps it is for the need of confidentiality, so no textual information is left, perhaps the relevant literature information has been lost.

It doesn't matter, these are not important anymore. Now that you guys are here today, I believe you won't be here for nothing, maybe you will have a surprise discovery, that's great! "

As soon as he finished speaking, Jason immediately said with excitement:

"According to your instructions, we carefully checked the Renaissance-style ancient buildings on this street, and found the dragon-shaped snake emblem of the Sforza family on many buildings.

It can be determined that these Renaissance-style buildings with dragon-shaped snake emblems carved on the exterior walls belonged to the Sforza family and were part of the Sforza Castle.

After the rule of the Sforza family in Milan was ended by the French King Louis XII in 1499, with the decline of the Sforza Castle, the street gradually quieted down.

After hundreds of years of development, this street slowly returned to life, with more and more buildings of various styles, and gradually developed into a bustling commercial street.

There are restaurants, cafes, antique shops, fashion shops, jewellery shops, etc. on Vincent Zormont Street. There are many shops and many shops.

"It doesn't matter. Our goal is those Renaissance-style buildings, to be precise, those ancient buildings built between 1482 and 1499. Other buildings don't need to be seen.

During that time, it was the eighteen years that Leonardo spent in Milan, and it was also the peak of his artistic career. If he really presided over the construction of a group of buildings here, it would be beyond my eyes.

Once I have determined which buildings originated from Leonardo da Vinci, and what secrets may be hidden, then I can take action, even if I buy all the Renaissance-style buildings here, I will not hesitate.

Next, you have to keep a low profile and act secretly. Looking back, I asked David to hurry up and register a new company in New York, specifically for the acquisition of the buildings on this street, in order to cover people's eyes! "

Ye Tian smiled and said in a low voice, showing his ambition a little.

Next, the two of them talked a few more words before ending the call.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian and Betty turned right into Vincenzo Monte Street, strolling along this street, admiring the ancient buildings and various scenery on both sides of the street.

Anderson and Cole followed close behind and walked into this ancient street. Of course, they also included the highly guarded Milan police and cultural relics gendarmerie!

Like many places before, the appearance of their group immediately caused a commotion on this ancient and beautiful street.

Pedestrians, tourists walking on this street, businessmen and shop assistants doing business here, and people sitting in cafes drinking coffee, almost everyone looked at them curiously.

"I'll go! Why did this fellow Steven come to Vincenzo Monte? This is not a good thing! Especially for the antique shops on the street, this is probably a disaster!"

"I have to leave this street after I drink my coffee, lest I have nowhere to go when I want to go later, no matter where the **** Steven goes, there is no peace!"

Regarding these discussions, as well as curious and even jealous eyes, Ye Tian hadn't heard it, didn't take it seriously, and still walked leisurely on the street, enjoying the scenery here.

Not far along the street, Ye Tian stopped suddenly, looked at a building on the east side of the street, and then pretended to be excited:

"There is an ancient building in the Renaissance style. It looks like it was built during the heyday of the Renaissance. It coincides with the time when Leonardo da Vinci was in Milan. Let's take a look."

With that, he took Betty across the road and walked to the three-story building ten meters away to the left.

Anderson and the others followed and walked across the street towards this historic building.

As for the Milan policeman and a few cultural relics gendarmerie who were following ten meters away, they looked at Ye Tian and the others confusedly.

Standing in front of this historic building, Ye Tian saw the dragon-shaped snake emblem carved on the marble on the outer wall of the building at a glance. It was very conspicuous and also showed a bit of ancient meaning.

The next moment, he pointed to the dragon-shaped snake badge and said:

"Look there, everyone. It is a dragon-shaped snake emblem. It is the emblem of the Sforza family, the ruler of Milan during the Renaissance. This family ruled Milan for a short time, only more than fifty years.

However, this family has left a strong mark in Italian history and even Western art history. The main reason is the friendship between Ludvik, Duke of Milan and Leonardo da Vinci.

It was because of the strong support of the Sforza family that Leonardo was able to gain a foothold in Milan and then reached the peak of his artistic career, creating many immortal works, including "The Last Supper".

Since the ancient building in front of us has the emblem of the Sforza family, it means that it was once an outbuilding of the Sforza Castle. It belonged to the Sforza family at that time and had a good background! ..."

While explaining the introduction, Ye Tian has also turned on perspective and began to secretly explore the internal conditions of this ancient building ~www.novelhall.com~ and the conditions deep underground.

This historic building is now an Italian restaurant, because it is not lunch time, there are no guests in the restaurant, only some restaurant staff are busy.

In this restaurant, Ye Tian found two hidden compartments on the wall, but they were all empty and there was nothing.

As for the depths of the underground, there are only black mud and hard rocks. There are no secret rooms or tunnels. Naturally, there are no surprises!

After admiring this historical building for a while, everyone continued to move forward and walked towards another building not far ahead, which was also a Renaissance-style building.

As before, Ye Tian still found nothing in this ancient Renaissance-style building and deep underground, and found nothing!

The results of the next third building and fourth building were the same. He didn't see any valuable antique artworks, let alone the discovery of secret rooms!

Until he came to the fifth Renaissance-style building on the east side of the street, when Ye Tian's line of sight penetrated deep underground, a deep and dim secret road suddenly broke into his eyes.

Although Ye Tian didn't find anything valuable in his eyes, a flash of ecstasy flashed in his eyes, fleeting!

Although a bronze candlestick inserted on the wall of the secret passage is rusty and dusty, the light it emits accurately reveals the age it came from!

The age that the bronze candlestick came from was the late fifteenth century, the brilliant age when Leonardo released his genius!
