Within a short time, Ye Tian and the others had returned to the suite upstairs.
Joshua and the others also followed, one by one full of expectations.
Immediately afterwards, the portable safe containing the top antique relics was also transported into this luxurious suite.
Ye Tian took off his equipment, changed his dusty clothes, and briefly washed before walking into the living room.
At this time, Joshua and others in the living room couldn't wait.
Seeing him coming, everyone stood up immediately.
"Steven, quickly open these portable safes and let us take a good look at the top-notch antique relics that are priceless. Their discoveries are so shocking!"
"Yes, the discovery of these top antique cultural relics can completely prove that part of the legendary Solomon treasure is hidden near Axum."
Joshua and the others babbled, everyone was very excited.
The Deputy Mayor of Aksum and the other two Tigray people who were also present at the scene, their expressions were very solemn and worried.
Ye Tian didn't open these portable safes immediately, but glanced at everyone at the scene, then smiled and said:
"Gentlemen, the top antique relics in these portable safes are all invaluable, but their history is too long and they are very fragile. It is best not to touch them casually.
More importantly, these top antique cultural relics have been stored in the snake cave of the Night Demon Snake, which must have been contaminated with a lot of snake venom and other dangerous things, such as deadly germs.
For the sake of safety, no one can touch these top antique cultural relics in the safe without permission. Even if you want to conduct identification, you must wear protective equipment."
Hearing this, everyone at the scene was taken aback.
In the next moment, everyone thought of those terrifying green night demon snakes, and thought of various legends about those poisonous snakes biting people to death.
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help shivering and shivering.
The few guys closest to those portable safes even took a half step back, and a look of fear flashed in their eyes at the same time.
"Really yes, Steven, if you don't remind us, we really forgot about it, it would be too dangerous!"
Joshua said in fear.
"You can rest assured that there is no snake venom on the surface of these portable safes. After putting those top antique relics into these portable safes, we thoroughly disinfected the surface of the safe on the spot."
Ye Tian said with a smile.
Hearing this, the few guys who had been in contact with these portable safes just took a deep breath and relaxed a little.
Next, Ye Tian took out a pair of gloves and put on a mask, ready to open these portable safes.
Seeing that he was so cautious, the others also took the protective masks that Derek had handed them and put on them.
When everything was ready, Ye Tian stepped forward and began to enter the password to open these portable safes.
The first thing he opened was the safe containing the seven-branched gilt bronze candlestick.
As the lid of the safe was opened, a bright golden light flashed in the room, extremely dazzling.
Immediately afterwards, there was a sound of exclamation on the scene.
"Wow! Is this the seven-branched gold candlestick enshrined in Solomon's Temple in the legend? It's so exquisite!"
"It is hard to imagine that this seven-branched golden candlestick has a history of nearly three thousand years, and it is so complete that it is a miracle!"
Compared to others, the Israelis headed by Joshua were particularly excited, and everyone was full of enthusiasm.
In their eyes, this is a religious sacred object with inestimable value.
One of the Israeli archaeologists even stepped forward excitedly, trying to identify these top antique artifacts at close range.
However, he was stopped by Cole, who was standing by.
Ye Tian looked at this person, then smiled and shook his head and said:
"Gentlemen, I want to correct one thing. This is not the seven-branched gold candlestick enshrined in the temple of Solomon in the legend, but an imitation of the gold candlestick, or a spare candlestick.
It is not entirely made of gold, but a gilt bronze candlestick, except that the gilt layer on the outside is very thick, so it is so intact that it has not suffered severe corrosion.
But one thing is certain, this gilt bronze candlestick was made in the same period as the legendary seven-branched gold candlestick, and it looks exactly the same, and it comes from Solomon's Temple.
As for the legendary seven-branched golden candlestick, we found it when we were exploring the treasures of the Knights Templar in Portugal. The golden candlestick is hidden in the same place as the Holy Grail."
After listening to his introduction, everyone nodded.
At the same time, everyone looked at Ye Tian's eyes, full of envy and even jealousy.
This guy is so lucky, he can always create amazing miracles one after another, which is jaw-dropping!
There are only two gold candlesticks like this that are priceless in Israel's history, but he found them all. It's incredible!
As soon as the voice fell, Joshua continued to say:
"Whether it is a seven-branched gilt copper candlestick or a gold candlestick, just because it comes from the Temple of Solomon, it is a holy artifact and its value is immeasurable!"
Ye Tian nodded lightly, and then opened the second portable safe.
What is in this safe is the bronze statue of the prophet Job.
Although this bronze statue is rusty, mottled, and even a little broken, it shocked everyone on the scene very strongly!
The moment they saw this bronze statue, Joshua and the others were all shocked, their expressions solemn, but their eyes were extremely excited.
Several religious figures headed by the Bishop of Kent painted crosses on their chests and prayed in low voices.
Isaiah, the representative of Judaism, knelt on the ground and prayed devoutly.
After a while, everyone recovered.
Immediately afterwards, there was another exclamation, one after another.
"There is no doubt that this is definitely the oldest bronze statue of Job found so far. Although it is rusty, it is definitely a sacred object!"
"The discovery of this bronze statue of Job is of great significance. It corroborates the stories about Job in the Old Testament!"
Just as everyone was talking, Ye Tian opened the third portable safe.
What is installed in this portable safe is a gilt copper plate with the mark of the big satellite engraved on it, which is very conspicuous!
With the appearance of this gilt bronze plate, a golden light flashed on the scene.
A few minutes later, these top antique cultural relics from the Night Demon Snake Cave were all presented in front of everyone.
Everyone stepped forward one after another and began to appreciate these priceless treasures.
For safety's sake, everyone is not allowed to approach these portable safes, and can only stand one metre away and look up and admire them.
After everyone's appreciation, several archaeologists and historians from the tripartite joint exploration team, as well as antique art appraisal experts, began to appraise top antique cultural relics.
Ye Tian and Joshua sat on the sofa, chatting while waiting for the appraisal results to come out.
"Steven, I still want to ask, what do you plan to do with these top antique artifacts? Is it possible to keep them in Axum? They have been here after all for the past one or two thousand years!"
The deputy mayor of Axum asked.
Following his words, the other two Tigrays immediately looked over.
Obviously, this is their biggest concern.
Ye Tian did not respond immediately, but looked at Joshua and the Bishop of Kent.
After a short while, he smiled and said:
"I don't want to conceal you, and I don't want to lie. Gentlemen, it is very unlikely that these top antique relics will stay in Axum. The reason is simple. You will definitely not accept my offer.
As you all know, I do not collect antique cultural relics and artworks with strong religious colors. These antique cultural relics are naturally included, so I will sell them all in exchange for real benefits.
For such top antique cultural relics, the price I set for them is naturally top-notch. With the economic strength of Axum and Tigray, I don’t think you can afford these top antique cultural relics."
Although I really don't want to admit it, the deputy mayor of Aksum and others are very clear that these words are not wrong at all.
With the strength of Tigray State and Axum, coupled with Steven's famous cruelty and greed, don't even want to eat these top antique artifacts.
Thinking of this, the deputy mayor of Aksum and others were silent.
At the same time, they are also unwilling!
These are all top-notch antique cultural relics of invaluable value. Who can be willing to be looted like this?
Ye Tian looked at these guys and gave them another sweet date.
"In my opinion, you should think about how to use the tax that you are about to get, instead of thinking about the idea of dealing with these antiques and cultural relics.
Another point is that these are ancient Jewish religious items, not Ethiopian Eastern Orthodox religious items. Even if you can afford to buy these antique artifacts, where do you put them? "
Hearing this, the faces of several Tigray people only looked better.
Yes, although Aksum can't keep these top antique artifacts, it is not nothing.
At least getting a generous amount of taxes, as well as the aid and compensation promised by the Israelis, is also a comfort!
After talking for a while, those archaeologists and historians, as well as experts in the appraisal of antiques and cultural relics, finally completed the preliminary appraisal.
Needless to say, these top antique relics are all from Solomon’s Temple and are part of the legendary Solomon’s treasure. Each piece is of great value.
In particular, the bronze statue of the prophet Job and the seven-branched gilt bronze candlestick are both religious sacred objects of Judaism and extremely valuable.
The release of the appraisal result once again aroused an exclamation in the suite.
...
In a blink of an eye, it was already around nine o'clock in the evening.
Except for Joshua, the Bishop of Kent, and David, everyone else has left the luxurious suite where Ye Tian lived.
Ye Tian locked the portable safe containing those top antique cultural relics.
Afterwards, those safes were moved to another room on the same floor, where they were closely guarded by a group of armed security personnel, and no one was allowed to touch them.
When everyone else left, Joshua immediately got to the point.
"Steven, let's talk about trading these top antique artifacts. Since you don't collect these religious artifacts, it is better to sell them to us as soon as possible.
In this case, you don’t have to take risks, and you don’t need to send people to protect them at all times and transfer them to New York or Beijing. The corresponding risks can be borne by us.
For Israel and for all Jews, these top antique artifacts have a very special meaning. We would like to take them back and enshrine them again in Jerusalem! "
Before he finished speaking, the bishop of Kent next to him said:
"Steven, Joshua, if possible, we in the Vatican would like to buy the bronze statue of the prophet Job. Everyone knows that Job is not only a Jewish prophet, but also a Christian prophet!
And the meaning of the bronze statue of Job is very special. It is the oldest bronze statue of Job found so far. We want to accept this statue and enshrine it in St. Peter's Basilica! "
Before Ye Tian could respond, Joshua was already in a hurry.
"Impossible, Bishop of Kent, this statue of the prophet Job can only be returned to Israel, and must also return to Israel and be enshrined in Jerusalem!"
Seeing that these two were about to quarrel, Ye Tian said quickly:
"Gentlemen, I do plan to sell these top antique artifacts, but you should listen to my offer before deciding whether to buy it."
Hearing this, Joshua and the Bishop of Kent shivered immediately.
They understood in an instant that this was about to be severely slaughtered!
"Tell me, Steven, what kind of quotations do you plan to make for these top antique artifacts? See if we can accept it."
Joshua said in a deep voice.
"Okay, for the gilt bronze seven-branched candlestick, I offer 150 million U.S. dollars for it, and for the bronze statue of the prophet Job, I offer 260 million U.S. dollars for it,..."
Ye Tian said with a smile, but he acted mercilessly.
Before the words finished, Joshua and the Bishop of Kent were stunned and dumbfounded.
It took a long time before they recovered.
"Steven, you guys are so greedy, this is a robbery!"
"We have cooperated so many times. I thought you would be merciful, but I didn't expect it to be so cruel. The offer is too high for us to accept!"
Ye Tian looked at these two old friends and said with a smile:
"Friendship belongs to friendship, and business belongs to business. You all know the importance and value of these top antique cultural relics, and you should know that my offer is actually not high.
If you can’t accept this quotation, then I can only send them for auction. I’m sure that the price at which they will fall hammer will be much higher than this quotation.”
Joshua and the Bishop of Kent looked at each other and fell silent.
After a while, Joshua said:
"Whether to accept your offer, we still need to discuss and report to Jerusalem, I believe there will be an answer soon, then we will discuss the transaction again!"
"The same is true for us, and we also need to report to His Majesty the Pope"
The Bishop of Kent continued.
"No problem, gentlemen, I can wait, but it's best to give the answer tomorrow morning. For safety reasons, if you don't have an answer tomorrow, I will ship these top antique artifacts to New York!"
"Okay, Steven, we will decide as soon as possible"
Joshua nodded in response, and the bishop of Kent nodded.
Then we discussed the transaction for a while~www.novelhall.com~ and everyone changed the topic.
"Steven, when I returned to the hotel just now, you said that there is a very important thing to discuss with us. Can I say it now? What is it?"
"This thing is that, on the basis of the exploration sites you provided, I want to add another exploration site. I am more interested in this site and I really want to explore it."
"Ah! A new exploration site? Where is this newly added exploration site? What's so special?"
"It is opposite the ruins of the ancient castle we are exploring today, with a deep canyon in between. It is a very steep and dangerous cliff with a very special geological condition.
Precisely because the cliff is very steep and dangerous, it feels somewhat in line with the ancient Hebrew sentence before, there may be the so-called despair, and the light of God may be there! "
Hearing this, Joshua and the Bishop of Kent jumped up and said excitedly:
"The despair of life referred to in the ancient Hebrew sentence, is it the cliff opposite the ruins of the ancient castle?"
_
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Within a short time, Ye Tian and the others had returned to the suite upstairs.
Joshua and the others also followed, one by one full of expectations.

Joshua said in a deep voice.
"Okay, for the gilt bronze seven-branched candlestick, I offer 150 million U.S. dollars for it, and for the bronze statue of the prophet Job, I offer 260 million U.S. dollars for it,..."

Precisely because the cliff is very steep and dangerous, it feels somewhat in line with the ancient Hebrew sentence before, there may be the so-called despair, and the light of God may be there! "
Hearing this, Joshua and the Bishop of Kent jumped up and said excitedly:
"The despair of life referred to in the ancient Hebrew sentence, is it the cliff opposite the ruins of the ancient castle?"

It corroborates the stories about Job in the Old Testament!"Just as everyone was talking, Ye Tian opened the third portable safe.What is installed in this portable safe is a gilt copper plate with the mark of the big satellite engraved on it, which is very conspicuous!With the appearance of this gilt bronze plate, a golden light flashed on the scene.A few minutes later, these top antique cultural relics from the Night Demon Snake Cave were all presented in front of everyone.Everyone stepped forward one after another and began to appreciate these priceless treasures.For safety's sake, everyone is not allowed to approach these portable safes, and can only stand one metre away and look up and admire them.After everyone's appreciation, several archaeologists and historians from the tripartite joint exploration team, as well as antique art appraisal experts, began to appraise top antique cultural relics.Ye Tian and Joshua sat on the sofa, chatting while waiting for the appraisal results to come out."Steven, I still want to ask, what do you plan to do with these top antique artifacts? Is it possible to keep them in Axum? They have been here after all for the past one or two thousand years!"The deputy mayor of Axum asked.Following his words, the other two Tigrays immediately looked over.Obviously, this is their biggest concern.Ye Tian did not respond immediately, but looked at Joshua and the Bishop of Kent.After a short while, he smiled and said:"I don't want to conceal you, and I don't want to lie. Gentlemen, it is very unlikely that these top antique relics will stay in Axum. The reason is simple. You will definitely not accept my offer.As you all know, I do not collect antique cultural relics and artworks with strong religious colors. These antique cultural relics are naturally included, so I will sell them all in exchange for real benefits.For such top antique cultural relics, the price I set for them is naturally top-notch. With the economic strength of Axum and Tigray, I don't think you can afford these top antique cultural relics."Although I really don't want to admit it, the deputy mayor of Aksum and others are very clear that these words are not wrong at all.With the strength of Tigray State and Axum, coupled with Steven's famous cruelty and greed, don't even want to eat these top antique artifacts.Thinking of this, the deputy mayor of Aksum and others were silent.At the same time, they are also unwilling!These are all top-notch antique cultural relics of invaluable value. Who can be willing to be looted like this?Ye Tian looked at these guys and gave them another sweet date."In my opinion, you should think about how to use the tax that you are about to get, instead of thinking about the idea of dealing with these antiques and cultural relics.Another point is that these are ancient Jewish religious items, not Ethiopian Eastern Orthodox religious items. Even if you can afford to buy these antique artifacts, where do you put them? "Hearing this, the faces of several Tigray people only looked better.Yes, although Aksum can't keep these top antique artifacts, it is not nothing.At least getting a generous amount of taxes, as well as the aid and compensation promised by the Israelis, is also a comfort!After talking for a while, those archaeologists and historians, as well as experts in the appraisal of antiques and cultural relics, finally completed the preliminary appraisal.Needless to say, these top antique relics are all from Solomon's Temple and are part of the legendary Solomon's treasure. Each piece is of great value.In particular, the bronze statue of the prophet Job and the seven-branched gilt bronze candlestick are both religious sacred objects of Judaism and extremely valuable.The release of the appraisal result once again aroused an exclamation in the suite....In a blink of an eye, it was already around nine o'clock in the evening.Except for Joshua, the Bishop of Kent, and David, everyone else has left the luxurious suite where Ye Tian lived.Ye Tian locked the portable safe containing those top antique cultural relics.Afterwards, those safes were moved to another room on the same floor, where they were closely guarded by a group of armed security personnel, and no one was allowed to touch them.When everyone else left, Joshua immediately got to the point."Steven, let's talk about trading these top antique artifacts. Since you don't collect these religious artifacts, it is better to sell them to us as soon as possible.In this case, you don't have to take risks, and you don't need to send people to protect them at all times and transfer them to New York or Beijing. The corresponding risks can be borne by us.For Israel and for all Jews, these top antique artifacts have a very special meaning. We would like to take them back and enshrine them again in Jerusalem! "Before he finished speaking, the bishop of Kent next to him said:"Steven, Joshua, if possible, we in the Vatican would like to buy the bronze statue of the prophet Job. Everyone knows that Job is not only a Jewish prophet, but also a Christian prophet!And the meaning of the bronze statue of Job is very special. It is the oldest bronze statue of Job found so far. We want to accept this statue and enshrine it in St. Peter's Basilica! "Before Ye Tian could respond, Joshua was already in a hurry."Impossible, Bishop of Kent, this statue of the prophet Job can only be returned to Israel, and must also return to Israel and be enshrined in Jerusalem!"Seeing that these two were about to quarrel, Ye Tian said quickly:"Gentlemen, I do plan to sell these top antique artifacts, but you should listen to my offer before deciding whether to buy it."Hearing this, Joshua and the Bishop of Kent shivered immediately.They understood in an instant that this was about to be severely slaughtered!"Tell me, Steven, what kind of quotations do you plan to make for these top antique artifacts? See if we can accept it."Joshua said in a deep voice."Okay, for the gilt bronze seven-branched candlestick, I offer 150 million U.S. dollars for it, and for the bronze statue of the prophet Job, I offer 260 million U.S. dollars for it,..."Ye Tian said with a smile, but he acted mercilessly.Before the words finished, Joshua and the Bishop of Kent were stunned and dumbfounded.It took a long time before they recovered."Steven, you guys are so greedy, this is a robbery!""We have cooperated so many times. I thought you would be merciful, but I didn't expect it to be so cruel. The offer is too high for us to accept!"Ye Tian looked at these two old friends and said with a smile:"Friendship belongs to friendship, and business belongs to business. You all know the importance and value of these top antique cultural relics, and you should know that my offer is actually not high.If you can't accept this quotation, then I can only send them for auction. I'm sure that the price at which they will fall hammer will be much higher than this quotation.Joshua and the Bishop of Kent looked at each other and fell silent.After a while, Joshua said:"Whether to accept your offer, we still need to discuss and report to Jerusalem, I believe there will be an answer soon, then we will discuss the transaction again!""The same is true for us, and we also need to report to His Majesty the Pope"The Bishop of Kent continued."No problem, gentlemen, I can wait, but it's best to give the answer tomorrow morning. For safety reasons, if you don't have an answer tomorrow, I will ship these top antique artifacts to New York!""Okay, Steven, we will decide as soon as possible"Joshua nodded in response, and the bishop of Kent nodded.Then we discussed the transaction for a while~www.novelhall.com~ and everyone changed the topic."Steven, when I returned to the hotel just now, you said that there is a very important thing to discuss with us. Can I say it now? What is it?""This thing is that, on the basis of the exploration sites you provided, I want to add another exploration site. I am more interested in this site and I really want to explore it.""Ah! A new exploration site? Where is this newly added exploration site? What's so special?""It is opposite the ruins of the ancient castle we are exploring today, with a deep canyon in between. It is a very steep and dangerous cliff with a very special geological condition.Precisely because the cliff is very steep and dangerous, it feels somewhat in line with the ancient Hebrew sentence before, there may be the so-called despair, and the light of God may be there! "Hearing this, Joshua and the Bishop of Kent jumped up and said excitedly:"The despair of life referred to in the ancient Hebrew sentence, is it the cliff opposite the ruins of the ancient castle?"_
