In a blink of an eye it is another new day, the sun is shining brightly.
Just after eight in the morning, Ye Tian took David and many of his men to leave the hotel, preparing to go to the Fasilidas castle complex to deal with the gold and silver treasures and antiques in Solomon's treasure.
When they walked out of the hotel, they found out immediately.
The entrance of this hotel has been surrounded by a swarm of journalists.
And outside the cordon not far away, a large number of Ethiopians gathered, many of whom were devout Orthodox believers in white robes.
Seeing Ye Tian and the others come out, the media reporters guarding the door of the hotel immediately became restless, and began to raise questions in a loud voice.
"Good morning, Mr. Steven, I'm a reporter for NBC TV. What would you do with the part of Solomon's treasure found in Noah's Ark Church? Will you keep them in Ethiopia or take them to New York?"
"Good morning, Mr. Steven, I am a reporter from the Jerusalem Post. The gold statues of the Three Kings of Israel are truly priceless. Are you going to collect them yourself or sell them to the Israeli government?"
Ye Tian did not respond to questions from these media reporters.
He just waved at these media reporters, then boarded the bulletproof armored vehicle parked in front of the hotel and drove away.
When the convoy drove away from the hotel, Ye Tian and the others quickly found out.
Every street the convoy passed was crowded with Ethiopians.
Among these Ethiopians, there are local citizens of Gondar and many people who came from other places overnight.
Without exception, these Ethiopians are staring at the convoy.
Their eyes are very complicated, with worry, anger, and endless envy and jealousy.
Due to several previous attacks and even **** killings, the Ethiopian government has made sufficient preparations.
The streets are full of heavily armed Ethiopian military police to maintain order.
It is precisely because of their existence and strong pressure that the numerous Ethiopian talents who flocked in did not cause trouble.
Of course, countless raised middle fingers and verbal abuse are still indispensable.
In a short while, the convoy arrived at the gate of the Fasilidas castle complex.
Compared to the hotel entrance, the situation here is even more exaggerated.
More reporters gathered at the gates of the castle complex, and the number was twice as large as yesterday.
These guys stayed here all night, armed with long guns and short cannons, facing the gates of the Fasilidas castles, and shooting everyone who enters and exits the castles.
And outside the cordon drawn by the police, a swarm of Ethiopians has completely blocked several nearby streets.
Looking at the situation outside, everyone in the convoy was speechless.
"Steven, this scene is a bit exaggerated. If all of Solomon's treasures are taken away by Israel, the Vatican, and the United States, once these Ethiopians outside the castle complex get news, will they riot?"
David said worriedly.
Ye Tian looked at the situation outside, then gently shook his head.
"I believe that the Israelis and the Vatican, as well as those from the United States, will not do things so absolutely. They should leave a certain opportunity for the Ethiopians.
After all, this is Ethiopia, a sovereign and independent country. If they want to smoothly transport the part of Solomon’s treasures they have photographed, they have to rely on the Ethiopian government.
Especially in Israel, the cave located deep underground in Noah's Ark Church will be one of the holy places in the minds of all Jews.
Ethiopia's harvest is actually not small. Just this underground cave can continue to bring them a lot of benefits, and the antiques and cultural relics in the cave are also very valuable! "
Hearing this, David couldn't help but nodded, somewhat relaxed.
While talking, the convoy had stopped at the gate of the castle group.
Everyone got off the car and walked towards the castle group together.
As soon as Ye Tian and the others appeared, the media reporters at the gates of the castle group began to ask questions loudly, one after another, one after another.
"Good morning, Steven, it is said that you will hold a small private auction at Noah's Ark Church to auction this part of Solomon's treasure. Can we go in and interview this auction?"
"Good morning, Steven, I'm a reporter from The New York Times, how much do you value the Three Kings of Israel Golden Statue? Can you tell everyone about it? Everyone is very interested!"
As before, Ye Tian did not respond to questions from these media reporters.
He just waved at these guys and walked straight into the Fasilidas castle complex.
In the castle complex, Joshua and Bishop of Kent, as well as the Minister of Culture and Presidential Representatives of Ethiopia, as well as the U.S. Ambassador to Ethiopia, are waiting for Ye Tian and their arrival.
Seeing them walk into the castle complex, these people immediately greeted them.
Except for the Ethiopians whose faces are full of pain, the others are full of expectations and excitement.
After everyone met, it was naturally a polite greeting.
Next, everyone was talking, laughing and chatting, while walking towards Noah's Ark Church.
Within a short while, everyone has come to the door of Noah's Ark Church.
At this time, more than a hundred white chairs had been placed on the lawn at the entrance of Noah's Ark Church.
The chairs are arranged in a fan, facing the door of Noah's Ark Church.
On the corridor at the entrance of the church, there is an auction platform.
There is a sturdy long table on each side of the auction table.
Ye Tian's small private auction will be held here soon.
When the auction officially started, he would stand on the auction platform and auction off the part of Solomon's treasure that he had just discovered.
The long tables on both sides of the auction table are used to display the gold and silver treasures and antiques in the treasures.
At this time, there are still dozens of minutes before this small private auction officially begins.
Except for Joshua and the Bishop of Kent, as well as the Ethiopian Minister of Culture, the rest of the guests who are eligible to participate in this private auction have not been allowed to enter the open-air auction venue.
But they have all come to the Fasilidas castle complex, which is standing in the distance, looking to this side.
Without exception, each of them was in suits and leather shoes, and was very excited.
At the auction venue, only the employees and security personnel of the Brave Fearless Exploration Company are busy, and no one else is allowed to enter the venue for the time being.
When he came here, Ye Tian first raised his hand to say hello to those familiar old friends around him, and then began to check.
This auction venue is definitely not luxurious. There is hardly any modern electronic display aids, and there is no telephone bidding or online bidding.
However, because it is held in the ancient and magnificent Fasilidas castle complex and in the world-famous cultural heritage, it has a special flavor.
As for the level of this small private auction, it is definitely the best in the world, and it can be regarded as a unique existence.
May I ask, before that, was there a top auction that could auction some of Solomon’s treasures?
Participating in this small private auction is not only the governments of the four countries, but also the top museums and collectors of these four countries, as well as the super rich and so on.
Ye Tian inspected the venue roughly, and then went inside the church to check the gold and silver treasures, antique cultural relics and works of art that were about to be auctioned.
In the busy schedule, half an hour passed quickly.
Those bidders who participated in this small private auction have all entered the open-air auction venue and received their respective bidding plates.
They sat on those white chairs on the grass at the entrance of the church, talking, laughing and chatting, while staring at the auction stand at the entrance of the church!
Although they seem to be very relaxed, everyone is full of excitement, and one by one is secretly gearing up, preparing to end the game and fight hard and strive for a rewarding return.
Soon, the time came to nine o'clock in the morning.
Ye Tian, who had disappeared for a while, walked out of Noah's Ark Church.
Coming out with him were David and Joshua, as well as the Bishop of Kent and the Minister of Culture of Ethiopia.
When he arrived at the entrance of the church, Ye Tian went straight to the auction stand, while the others stood on the corridor at the entrance of the church.
Everyone understands that this small private auction, which is bound to cause a sensation in the world, is about to begin.
Ye Tian, who was standing behind the auction table, scanned the audience quickly, then smiled and said loudly:
"Good morning, gentlemen, I am very happy to be here with you, and I am very grateful to everyone for coming to participate in my small private auction. I hope that everyone will get what they want and will be rewarded!
The gold and silver treasures and antique artifacts auctioned at today's small private auction are all from the part of Solomon's treasure hidden deep underground in Noah's Ark Church. Many of the lots are invaluable.
Of course, the gold and silver treasures and antique cultural relics I want to auction today are not all of the Solomon treasures. There are some non-religious antique cultural relics in the treasure, which I plan to collect by myself.
Many people here are very familiar with me. They have participated in my small private auction before, so you should know that every lot I brought out is genuine and has an auction reserve price.
During the auction process, if the final quotation of a lot is lower than the auction reserve price, it can only be passed. Therefore, if you see a lot you like, you must actively raise your placard so as not to miss it! "
Hearing this, the old friends who were familiar with Ye Tian on the scene rolled their eyes irritably.
"This **** is still as greedy and cunning as before, and no one wants to take advantage of him!"
"It's the **** auction reserve price again. Without even thinking about it, everyone will be slaughtered by the **** Steven today!"
While everyone was talking about it, Ye Tian continued to perform.
Next, he briefly introduced the process of discovering this part of Solomon's treasure, as well as the antique relics, gold and silver treasures in this part of Solomon's treasure.
During the period, Joshua and the Bishop of Kent, as well as the Ethiopian Minister of Culture, also came forward to speak.
They spoke highly of this joint exploration operation and affirmed the huge sensation caused by the emergence of this part of Solomon's treasure!
These are all Mandarin idioms, which are not nutritious and indispensable!
After speaking, Joshua and the others went down the steps and took a few seats in the first row.
Also sitting in the first row are the U.S. Ambassador to Ethiopia and the Ethiopian President’s special envoy.
As representatives of the Israeli government and the Vatican government, Joshua and the Bishop of Kent have also been assigned two bidding numbers and are preparing to participate in this auction.
Of course, they are just a gesture.
Most of the time, the real representatives of the Israeli government and the Vatican government participated in the auction, and there were two groups of professionals.
When Joshua and the others sat down, Ye Tian immediately signaled to his staff to bring out the first lot, display it, and put it on auction.
In a short time, Derek and the others walked out of the church carrying a black portable safe.
They put the safe on the long table on the left side of the auction table, and then stepped back to the side.
Next, three lawyers including David stepped forward to check the seal.
After confirming that the seals were not damaged, they opened the three seals.
When they left, Ye Tian walked forward, entered the password, and opened the black portable safe.
Following his movements, a dazzling golden statue immediately appeared in front of everyone.
That was the first golden statue of King Saul to be cleared out and transported to the ground.
The moment this golden statue of the three kings of Israel appeared, the scene immediately exploded.
The many bidders sitting under the stage, as if they were electrocuted, jumped up from their seats, looking at this priceless treasure with excitement!
The eyes of these guys are extremely hot, and they are about to burn.
Many of the guys' eyes turned red in an instant, and they looked a little scary.
"God! This is the golden statue of King Saul. He is the first king in Israel's history. His status is very special and extremely important. There is no doubt that this is definitely a priceless treasure!"
"Wow! The first lot is the golden statue of King Saul. Steven this guy is still so amazing, and he can shock the audience with one shot!"
When many bidders were talking about it, Ye Tianqing's voice came out again.
"Gentlemen, since everyone has recognized this golden statue, I don't need to introduce it again. I can tell you with certainty that this golden statue of King Saul came from the Solomon Temple.
Next, let’s enter the auction. The starting price I set for this golden statue of King Saul is 600 million U.S. dollars. I hope everyone will bid for 600 million U.S. dollars. Which gentleman should bid?..."
The voice was not over, and the scene was boiling again.
"Oh my god! The starting price of 600 million US dollars, Steven is so crazy and greedy to the extreme!"
"Although the golden statue of King Saul is an invaluable treasure, it was called 600 million U.S. dollars. Isn't it too high?",
There was a lot of discussion on the scene, one after another.
Everyone was shocked by Ye Tian's huge appetite!
Especially those Ethiopians, who have seen this kind of battle, are all dumbfounded.
Just when they thought that there was absolutely no one to take advantage of this and raise a placard to ask for a price.
Joshua, who was sitting in the first row, raised the bidding number plate in his hand.
"Six hundred million dollars, Steven"
As Joshua raised his placard to respond to the price, there was another exclamation on the scene.
Everyone looked at Joshua, but no one held up a placard to compete with him.
Everyone present is very clear that the Israeli government is bound to obtain the three gold statues of Israel’s three kings.
If someone competes with Joshua ~www.novelhall.com~ for this golden statue of King Saul, it is very likely to offend the Israeli government and even all the Jews.
Naturally no one wants to do such a thing, it will definitely outweigh the gain.
For this situation, Ye Tian had already expected it.
He did not delay, and then said loudly:
"Joshua has offered 600 million U.S. dollars, and the current price is 620 million U.S. dollars. Is there any gentleman who has offered to bid? I hope you don't miss this opportunity and actively bid.
Six hundred and twenty million dollars for the first, second and third time. Okay, six hundred million dollars was sold. The winning bidder was Joshua. This golden statue of King Saul belongs to Israel! "
With that, Ye Tian struck the auction mallet.
"boom!"
With a crisp sound, the golden statue of King Saul was successfully photographed!

Everyone is very interested!"As before, Ye Tian did not respond to questions from these media reporters.He just waved at these guys and walked straight into the Fasilidas castle complex.In the castle complex, Joshua and Bishop of Kent, as well as the Minister of Culture and Presidential Representatives of Ethiopia, as well as the U.S. Ambassador to Ethiopia, are waiting for Ye Tian and their arrival.Seeing them walk into the castle complex, these people immediately greeted them.Except for the Ethiopians whose faces are full of pain, the others are full of expectations and excitement.After everyone met, it was naturally a polite greeting.Next, everyone was talking, laughing and chatting, while walking towards Noah's Ark Church.Within a short while, everyone has come to the door of Noah's Ark Church.At this time, more than a hundred white chairs had been placed on the lawn at the entrance of Noah's Ark Church.The chairs are arranged in a fan, facing the door of Noah's Ark Church.On the corridor at the entrance of the church, there is an auction platform.There is a sturdy long table on each side of the auction table.Ye Tian's small private auction will be held here soon.When the auction officially started, he would stand on the auction platform and auction off the part of Solomon's treasure that he had just discovered.The long tables on both sides of the auction table are used to display the gold and silver treasures and antiques in the treasures.At this time, there are still dozens of minutes before this small private auction officially begins.Except for Joshua and the Bishop of Kent, as well as the Ethiopian Minister of Culture, the rest of the guests who are eligible to participate in this private auction have not been allowed to enter the open-air auction venue.But they have all come to the Fasilidas castle complex, which is standing in the distance, looking to this side.Without exception, each of them was in suits and leather shoes, and was very excited.At the auction venue, only the employees and security personnel of the Brave Fearless Exploration Company are busy, and no one else is allowed to enter the venue for the time being.When he came here, Ye Tian first raised his hand to say hello to those familiar old friends around him, and then began to check.This auction venue is definitely not luxurious. There is hardly any modern electronic display aids, and there is no telephone bidding or online bidding.However, because it is held in the ancient and magnificent Fasilidas castle complex and in the world-famous cultural heritage, it has a special flavor.As for the level of this small private auction, it is definitely the best in the world, and it can be regarded as a unique existence.May I ask, before that, was there a top auction that could auction some of Solomon's treasures?Participating in this small private auction is not only the governments of the four countries, but also the top museums and collectors of these four countries, as well as the super rich and so on.Ye Tian inspected the venue roughly, and then went inside the church to check the gold and silver treasures, antique cultural relics and works of art that were about to be auctioned.In the busy schedule, half an hour passed quickly.Those bidders who participated in this small private auction have all entered the open-air auction venue and received their respective bidding plates.They sat on those white chairs on the grass at the entrance of the church, talking, laughing and chatting, while staring at the auction stand at the entrance of the church!Although they seem to be very relaxed, everyone is full of excitement, and one by one is secretly gearing up, preparing to end the game and fight hard and strive for a rewarding return.Soon, the time came to nine o'clock in the morning.Ye Tian, who had disappeared for a while, walked out of Noah's Ark Church.Coming out with him were David and Joshua, as well as the Bishop of Kent and the Minister of Culture of Ethiopia.When he arrived at the entrance of the church, Ye Tian went straight to the auction stand, while the others stood on the corridor at the entrance of the church.Everyone understands that this small private auction, which is bound to cause a sensation in the world, is about to begin.Ye Tian, who was standing behind the auction table, scanned the audience quickly, then smiled and said loudly:"Good morning, gentlemen, I am very happy to be here with you, and I am very grateful to everyone for coming to participate in my small private auction. I hope that everyone will get what they want and will be rewarded!The gold and silver treasures and antique artifacts auctioned at today's small private auction are all from the part of Solomon's treasure hidden deep underground in Noah's Ark Church. Many of the lots are invaluable.Of course, the gold and silver treasures and antique cultural relics I want to auction today are not all of the Solomon treasures. There are some non-religious antique cultural relics in the treasure, which I plan to collect by myself.Many people here are very familiar with me. They have participated in my small private auction before, so you should know that every lot I brought out is genuine and has an auction reserve price.During the auction process, if the final quotation of a lot is lower than the auction reserve price, it can only be passed. Therefore, if you see a lot you like, you must actively raise your placard so as not to miss it! "Hearing this, the old friends who were familiar with Ye Tian on the scene rolled their eyes irritably."This **** is still as greedy and cunning as before, and no one wants to take advantage of him!""It's the **** auction reserve price again. Without even thinking about it, everyone will be slaughtered by the **** Steven today!"While everyone was talking about it, Ye Tian continued to perform.Next, he briefly introduced the process of discovering this part of Solomon's treasure, as well as the antique relics, gold and silver treasures in this part of Solomon's treasure.During the period, Joshua and the Bishop of Kent, as well as the Ethiopian Minister of Culture, also came forward to speak.They spoke highly of this joint exploration operation and affirmed the huge sensation caused by the emergence of this part of Solomon's treasure!These are all Mandarin idioms, which are not nutritious and indispensable!After speaking, Joshua and the others went down the steps and took a few seats in the first row.Also sitting in the first row are the U.S. Ambassador to Ethiopia and the Ethiopian President's special envoy.As representatives of the Israeli government and the Vatican government, Joshua and the Bishop of Kent have also been assigned two bidding numbers and are preparing to participate in this auction.Of course, they are just a gesture.Most of the time, the real representatives of the Israeli government and the Vatican government participated in the auction, and there were two groups of professionals.When Joshua and the others sat down, Ye Tian immediately signaled to his staff to bring out the first lot, display it, and put it on auction.In a short time, Derek and the others walked out of the church carrying a black portable safe.They put the safe on the long table on the left side of the auction table, and then stepped back to the side.Next, three lawyers including David stepped forward to check the seal.After confirming that the seals were not damaged, they opened the three seals.When they left, Ye Tian walked forward, entered the password, and opened the black portable safe.Following his movements, a dazzling golden statue immediately appeared in front of everyone.That was the first golden statue of King Saul to be cleared out and transported to the ground.The moment this golden statue of the three kings of Israel appeared, the scene immediately exploded.The many bidders sitting under the stage, as if they were electrocuted, jumped up from their seats, looking at this priceless treasure with excitement!The eyes of these guys are extremely hot, and they are about to burn.Many of the guys' eyes turned red in an instant, and they looked a little scary."God! This is the golden statue of King Saul. He is the first king in Israel's history. His status is very special and extremely important. There is no doubt that this is definitely a priceless treasure!""Wow! The first lot is the golden statue of King Saul. Steven this guy is still so amazing, and he can shock the audience with one shot!"When many bidders were talking about it, Ye Tianqing's voice came out again."Gentlemen, since everyone has recognized this golden statue, I don't need to introduce it again. I can tell you with certainty that this golden statue of King Saul came from the Solomon Temple.Next, let's enter the auction. The starting price I set for this golden statue of King Saul is 600 million U.S. dollars. I hope everyone will bid for 600 million U.S. dollars. Which gentleman should bid?..."The voice was not over, and the scene was boiling again."Oh my god! The starting price of 600 million US dollars, Steven is so crazy and greedy to the extreme!""Although the golden statue of King Saul is an invaluable treasure, it was called 600 million U.S. dollars. Isn't it too high?",There was a lot of discussion on the scene, one after another.Everyone was shocked by Ye Tian's huge appetite!Especially those Ethiopians, who have seen this kind of battle, are all dumbfounded.Just when they thought that there was absolutely no one to take advantage of this and raise a placard to ask for a price.Joshua, who was sitting in the first row, raised the bidding number plate in his hand."Six hundred million dollars, Steven"As Joshua raised his placard to respond to the price, there was another exclamation on the scene.Everyone looked at Joshua, but no one held up a placard to compete with him.Everyone present is very clear that the Israeli government is bound to obtain the three gold statues of Israel's three kings.If someone competes with Joshua ~www.novelhall.com~ for this golden statue of King Saul, it is very likely to offend the Israeli government and even all the Jews.Naturally no one wants to do such a thing, it will definitely outweigh the gain.For this situation, Ye Tian had already expected it.He did not delay, and then said loudly:"Joshua has offered 600 million U.S. dollars, and the current price is 620 million U.S. dollars. Is there any gentleman who has offered to bid? I hope you don't miss this opportunity and actively bid.Six hundred and twenty million dollars for the first, second and third time. Okay, six hundred million dollars was sold. The winning bidder was Joshua. This golden statue of King Saul belongs to Israel! "With that, Ye Tian struck the auction mallet."boom!"With a crisp sound, the golden statue of King Saul was successfully photographed!7017k_
