Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye it is about five o'clock in the afternoon.

At this time, Ye Tian and the others were in an antique shop at the junction of the Armenian District and the Jewish Quarter, admiring the goods in this antique shop.

Also in this antique shop are Joshua and several high-level officials of the Israel Antiquities Administration, as well as several well-known antique dealers in Jerusalem!

In addition to this antique shop, in addition to a large number of Israeli military police in charge of security, there are also many media reporters, and then a large number of onlookers watching the excitement.

These onlookers are mainly locals from Jerusalem, and there are also many tourists from all over the world.

Among the many locals in Jerusalem, many are antique dealers who do business in the Armenian and Jewish quarters, as well as antique dealers who come from other cities.

At this time, whether it was the Israelis in the antique shop, or the Israelis outside the antique shop, standing at the door and on the street, without exception, everyone hated it.

The object they hate is naturally Ye Tian in the antique shop.

Like the fate of famous cities such as Paris, London, Rome, and Milan, Jerusalem did not escape the tragic fate of being looted wildly by him.

From the moment Ye Tian and the others arrived in Armenia, the antique art market in Jerusalem ushered in a violent tornado, raging crazily in this historic city.

However, every street, every antique shop, every gallery they passed through, all the valuable and neglected antique artworks were swept away by them.

Those antique dealers who were ransacked by Ye Tian didn't know what treasure they had lost and how great the loss was, but they knew very well that they were definitely ransacked by the **** Steven!

The antique works that Steven that **** bought from him must be very valuable.

With the sharp eyes of Steven that bastard, and his consistent cruel and greedy behavior, it is impossible to have a target!

Sadly, even if they knew they were looted, the hapless antique dealers were still at a loss.

How did they know that not only was Ye Tian ransacking the antique art market in Jerusalem, Bowie was also secretly sweeping all kinds of antique art, sweeping wealth unscrupulously.

At this time, Bowie, on another street not far away, was bargaining with the owner in a small antique shop, and he was close to success, and he would take another treasure.

Just an hour ago, Ye Tian had just left that small antique shop. He knew better than anyone what was in that antique shop, so Bowie would follow.

Back to the antique shop where Ye Tian was located, he was admiring the many antique artworks or suspected antique artworks displayed in the shop one by one, looking very devoted and focused.

A few meters away, Joshua and several other Israelis stared at his back with fire-breathing eyes one by one, wishing to rush forward to beat him up and throw him out of Israel!

Only in this way can the evil spirit that has accumulated in their hearts and are about to overflow well released, and can Israel avoid greater losses.

But unfortunately, they can't, at least in full view, they can't do such a thing.

After admiring the items displayed in the store in turn, and inquiring about the relevant information and quotations, Ye Tian finally fell on a simple and rusty seven-branched bronze candlestick.

Menorah is a very special existence in Jewish culture.

The modern Israeli national emblem is a seven-branched candlestick. It is said that its shape is designed according to a seven-branched ancient plant. It has an unusual origin and a very special meaning.

In ancient times, the seven-branched candlestick was the most important sacred object in the Temple of King Solomon in Jerusalem.

According to the 37th chapter of the "Bible. Exodus", the seven-branched candlestick in the temple of King Solomon was made of gold by Bezalel, a famous Israeli craftsman.

Among the seven lamps of the candlestick, the one in the middle is slightly higher than the six on the two sides. It represents the Sabbath, and the remaining six represent the six days when God created the world.

Because of this, the seven-branched gold candlestick became the sacred object of King Solomon's temple.

Over the years, it has become a symbol of Jewish historical heritage and tradition in countless places and in various forms. After the founding of Israel, it has become a national symbol of Israel.

On the national emblem of Israel, under the seven-branched candlestick, "State of Israel" is written in Hebrew.

Unfortunately, the golden candlestick in the temple of King Solomon was lost long ago.

As early as 64 BC, when the Roman commander-in-chief Tit occupied Jerusalem, he ransacked the sacred objects in the temple of King Solomon. Since then, the whereabouts of the seven-branched golden candlestick have been unknown and no news!

But on the Triumphal Arch in the Roman Forum, on ancient Roman coins, on Jewish tombstones, and various Jewish buildings, you can see the seven-branched candlestick pattern.

Throughout the ages, a large part of antique works of art related to Jews and Israel have been cast in various candlesticks of different shapes and sizes in various eras.

In Israeli antique shops, various candlesticks are definitely one of the most common antique artifacts.

When visiting other antique shops in Armenia and the Jewish Quarter, Ye Tian also saw many candlesticks, and even secretly informed Bowie that he had taken a pair of gilt candlesticks.

Of course, the rusty seven-branched bronze candlestick in front of me is definitely not the sacred instrument that was once enshrined in King Solomon's temple.

One is that the shape is slightly different, and the other is that the casting material is wrong. One is gold and the other is bronze. The two are very different.

As before, Ye Tian pretended to seriously appreciate this seven-branched bronze candlestick, then looked up at the antique shop owner, and said with a smile:

"Carl, can you introduce this seven-branched bronze candlestick? This bronze candlestick seems to have some history, how did you get it? How valuable is it? I am more interested in this bronze candlestick!"

Hearing this, the antique shop owner named Karl did not immediately respond, but looked suspiciously at the seven-branched bronze candlestick.

Several other antique dealers in the same shop, as well as two antique art appraisal experts next to Joshua, also looked at the bronze candlestick, trying to see something.

But it was a pity that they had nothing. Even Carl, who was most familiar with the bronze candlestick, was at a loss and couldn't figure out the truth and truth of what Ye Tian said.

After a short while, Carl said solemnly:

"Steven, I don't know what you saw. You really wanted to buy this seven-branched bronze candlestick, or the same as before, just asking for the price and making a fake shot. No intention to buy it at all!

I can’t guess your true intentions. Naturally, you can’t offer a sky-high price for every piece of goods. It’s too unauthentic, and there are many colleagues here. I don’t want to smash my sign by myself~www.novelhall.com ~ Regarding this seven-branched bronze candlestick, I will give a reasonable quotation, but I have a gratitude. If you really buy this candlestick, I hope you can explain the reason for buying it.

What appraisal conclusion would you give this bronze candlestick, and what is the specific valuation? I am very interested, and I believe that everyone else present is the same, they all want to know the answers to these questions! "

Without hesitation, Ye Tian immediately smiled and nodded in response;

"Okay, Carl, if I really buy this bronze candlestick, I will definitely explain it personally, disclose my appraisal conclusion, and give a rough estimate, so as to solve everyone's confusion."

Cole nodded slightly, and then began to introduce the origin of this bronze candlestick.

"This seven-branched bronze candlestick was unearthed in Bethlehem not far from Jerusalem. It was excavated by a farmer from the ground of his vineyard. It has been unearthed for more than four years!

About three and a half years ago, I went to Bethlehem to do errands, and by chance, I saw this rusty bronze candlestick, and I bought it when I was excited,..."
