In the evening, Ye Tiancai took David and the others back to the hotel.
After a day of sweeping, he bought a total of ten antique cultural relics and works of art.
Faced with such a result, Yahya and other Moroccans who have been following and witnessed all this with their own eyes are heartbroken.
And those Moroccan antique dealers who were looted were even more grief-stricken, and they wanted to jump into the Atlantic in remorse.
After returning to the hotel, Ye Tian found out.
That guy Jason has returned to Rabat, and after resting for a long time, he is fully recovered.
After the meeting, he first introduced the matter of escorting the Cubist painting of Braque to BJ, and then said regretfully:
"I heard about Howard being kidnapped. Why didn't such a good thing happen to me? In that case, I can also change my body and become a billionaire directly!"
Ye Tian looked at this guy, and said angrily:
"Everyone wants to get rich overnight and become a billionaire, but have you thought about the huge risks involved? What if I didn't find where you were hiding in time? In that case, you are likely to be silenced.
Afterwards, even if I find a place to kill all those kidnappers and claim $100 million or more, but you won't be able to enjoy any of those compensations, what's the point? So don't be delusional! "
Jason couldn't help but froze for a moment, and shivered.
"It's really like this. It's really hard to earn this hundred million dollars. Maybe I have to exchange my life for it. I'd better forget it! Let that guy Howard make a fortune!"
After chatting for a while, Ye Tian changed the subject.
"Jason, you have to fly to BJ again in two days, send these top antiques I bought in Rabat to BJ, hand them over to my family, and then fly to Casablanca"
"Ok, Steven"
Jason nodded, then said excitedly:
"It seems that you have gained a lot today. Can you tell us what treasures you have bought?"
"Of course, no problem"
Ye Tian smiled and nodded, then began to introduce today's harvest.
With his introduction, the guy Jason exclaimed again and again.
Especially when he heard that he found a large fragment of the goddess of Athena, this guy was even more excited.
"Steven, have you collected the fragments of this statue of Athena created by Phidias, the **** of classical sculpture, so you can piece it together as a whole?"
Ye Tian nodded lightly and said proudly:
"The fragments of this statue of Athena have been collected almost, only half of the head and some left and right fragments are missing. Those fragments are not very important.
Now I can completely piece together this statue of the goddess of Athena, and the completeness of the piece will far exceed the treasure of the Louvre, the statue of the goddess of victory.
Moreover, this statue of Athena is even more magnificent and spectacular, representing the highest artistic level of ancient Greek classical sculpture. Once it comes out, it will surely make a sensation in the whole world!
What "Venus of Milos", "The Statue of Victory", and Michelangelo's "David" and Rodin's "The Thinker" pale in comparison! "
Hearing this, Jason and David immediately exclaimed.
"Wow! That's really exciting, I'm looking forward to the day when this statue of Athena is born"
"It is conceivable that once this statue of Athena is born, it will cause a huge sensation, and it will definitely become the greatest sculpture in the world!"
Next, Ye Tian continued to introduce today's harvest.
While he was talking, the assistant lawyer who rushed to Madrid to negotiate with the Spanish government suddenly called.
After receiving the call, David asked the assistant lawyer to change to a video call to report the situation over there.
"Good evening, Steven and David, this afternoon we have had the first meeting with the representatives of the Spanish government and lawyers, and have put forward our demands to severely punish the parties, apologize and compensate and so on.
The attitude of the Spanish government is not bad, and it promised to punish the parties involved in this kidnapping case and hold relevant personnel responsible, but it is still in the stage of investigation and evidence collection, and the speed will not be so fast.
They also promised to make a public apology, but the amount of compensation has to be negotiated again, and at the same time they made a request, hoping that we will stop frequently mentioning this incident in front of the media and play down the impact of this incident as soon as possible.”
Ye Tian smiled and shook his head, and said disdainfully:
"If you want to downplay the impact of this incident, there is only one way, and that is to deal with the responsible person as soon as possible, make a public apology and make compensation. You can tell the Spaniards that the amount of compensation of 100 million US dollars is not negotiable!"
"Understood, Steven, I'll pass on your message to the Spanish government representatives and lawyers"
The assistant attorney nodded.
Next, the guy continued to report the situation and discussed the next negotiation strategy with Ye Tian and David.
About half an hour later, the video conference call ended.
However, Ye Tian was not able to relax.
After a while, the Minister of Culture of Morocco and several experts in the appraisal of antiques, cultural relics and works of art arrived at the hotel.
The purpose of their coming here is very simple. They just want to see the top antique cultural relics and works of art that Ye Tian has swept up today, and make a careful appraisal and evaluation.
Ye Tian did not refuse, but generously took out those antique cultural relics and works of art for these Moroccans to appreciate and identify.
Not only that, he also gave instructions on the spot.
The results do not need to ask!
Each of those antique cultural relics and works of art is genuine, and they are rare top-level antique cultural relics and works of art, each of which is of great value.
[The book chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend who I have known for ten years, Mimi read! It’s so easy to use, I rely on this reading aloud to pass the time before driving and before going to bed, you can download it here]
After the appraisal and evaluation, the Minister of Culture of Morocco proposed on the spot that he wanted to buy several of them, such as the red copper jug from the Carthaginian civilization!
Ye Tian didn't even listen to their offer, so he shook his head and refused.
He told these Moroccans that he would collect these antique artifacts and works of art that he bought today, and welcome them to appreciate these treasures in his private museum in BJ in the future.
Faced with such a result, the Minister of Culture of Morocco and others could only accept it, but there was nothing they could do.
Seeing that the acquisition was hopeless, they could only leave the hotel angrily and leave the hotel with disappointment.
As soon as they came downstairs, the Moroccan Minister of Culture gritted his back molars and instructed his subordinates.
"Notify the antique dealers in Rabat and Casablanca, and all the guys who run the antique art business, to be on their guard and try to avoid a repeat of what happened today.
This greedy bastard, Steven, is too terrifying. If he is allowed to scavenge so recklessly, the good things in the Moroccan antique art market will be looted by this bastard! "
"Okay, Mr. Minister, I'll let the wind out tonight!"
The subordinate nodded in response.
While talking, a few of them walked out of the hotel and left by car.
Soon, antique dealers large and small in Rabat and Casabraca, as well as other cities in Morocco, had received the news.
Be more careful these days, if that **** from Steven comes to your door, you must be highly vigilant, and don't be ransacked by that greedy bastard!
As the news spread rapidly, the field of Moroccan antique art collection suddenly entered a state of turmoil, and everyone was frightened!
...
The next day, nine in the morning.
Ye Tian and the others walked out of the hotel door talking and laughing, preparing to start today's tour.
Before them, Nick led the expedition team to excavate and clean up the ancient Roman treasure, and had set off to the ruins of Shera.
All day yesterday, they were doing preparations for the excavation.
For example, taking detailed pictures of the scene, numbering each stone, each building remnant, determining their location, etc.
This work is expected to last a day or two before the actual excavation and clean-up operation can begin.
Seeing Ye Tian and the others coming out, the media reporters who were guarding the door of the hotel immediately rushed up and raised their voices to ask questions.
"Good morning, Steven, I'm a reporter from The Catalan. As far as I know, your company's lawyer held a negotiation with the Spanish government officials in Madrid yesterday. Can you tell us about the negotiation? "
"Good morning, Steven, I'm a reporter from Morocco's national TV station. Excuse me, what do you plan to do with the antiques and artworks you bought in Rabat yesterday?"
Ye Tian looked at the media reporters outside the cordon, and just waved at them to say hello, but did not respond, and then boarded the bulletproof SUV parked in front of him.
When the others got on the bus one after another, the convoy started with a bang and drove away from the hotel door.
About 20 minutes later, the team arrived at the entrance of an antique flea market at the junction of Rabat New City and Saale Old City.
This is the largest antique and flea market in Rabat, not far from Udaya Castle.
The arrival of the United Exploration Team immediately attracted a lot of attention, and people at the entrance of the market looked over.
A few days later, the citizens of Rabat already knew the origin of the convoy and who was sitting in those sturdy bulletproof SUVs.
The moment they saw the team, there was a commotion in the crowd.
"Look, that guy Steven is here. Sure enough, this greedy **** is bent on sweeping the Rabat antique art market!"
"Isn't it? It seems that someone is going to be unlucky today. There may be many stalls to be ransacked, and even the entire market will usher in a catastrophe!"
Just as people were talking about it, Ye Tian got out of the car and stood at the door of the market, looking at the largest and most important antiques market in Morocco.
This is an Arab-style market, and the most people coming and going are naturally Arabs and Berbers in robes and so on.
Different from other Arab countries that I have visited before, there are many Arab women shopping here because of the relatively civilized folk customs in Morocco.
Although they also wore Arabian robes, their faces, hands and feet were not covered, and the clothes were colorful, which was a good sight.
In addition to the local Arabs and Berbers, there are many tourists from all over the world, including many Chinese tourists.
Just as Ye Tian was looking at this antique and flea market.
The news of his coming here has quickly swept the entire market like a tornado, reaching the ears of many people.
Especially the shopkeepers and stall owners who run the antique business are annoyed after receiving the news.
"Damn it, Steven, the greedy bastard, is still here, it's not a good thing"
After some cursing, these guys began to examine the goods in their hands to see if there was anything good that they had overlooked, so as not to be looted.
Sadly, most people don't find anything.
The things in the store and on the booth, what they were before and what they are now, have not changed.
It wasn't because they looked at it a few more times that the value of those things suddenly increased.
Market entrance.
Ye Haiya and Professor Paul came one after another and joined Ye Tian and the others in one place.
After everyone arrived, Ye Tian smiled and said:
"Gentlemen, let's go shopping together in this famous antique and flea market. I have been famous for this market for a long time. I hope that today I can make some surprising discoveries and return with a full reward.
Since you are here, you can't accompany me for a day. If you see something that you like, like antiques and cultural relics, and you are undecided, I can help you take a look! "
Before he finished speaking, Professor Paul's eyes suddenly lit up and radiated light.
Several Moroccan officials, including Yahya, were also excited and full of expectations.
"It's great, Steven, with the help of a top expert in antiques and works of art like you, we might be able to get one or two valuable antiques and works of art."
Professor Kane said excitedly, looking eager to try.
"However, I declare in advance that I will only help each of you three times, and I will not care if more than three times, so you must use these three opportunities carefully."
Ye Tian continued with a smile and said, taking a dose of vaccination.
Otherwise, he wouldn't even think about doing other things today, he wouldn't be able to help these old friends.
"Okay, Steven, three chances are already a lot. If we haven't found anything in this situation, it means that our vision and luck are very poor, and we can't blame others!"
Professor Paul nodded and said, and everyone else nodded.
"Okay, that's all I have to say, gentlemen, let's go in, I hope everyone can find out."
With that said, Ye Tian stepped into this antique and flea market.
The others followed immediately, all full of anticipation.
Many security personnel led by Mattis, as well as security personnel from Morocco, also followed, scattered around Ye Tian and the others, staring vigilantly around them.
In the bustling crowd, there are also many security personnel disguised as locals and tourists, keeping an eye on the people around them and protecting them in secret.
In several relatively high buildings around the market, there are also several sniper teams hidden, condescendingly monitoring this antique and flea market and protecting Ye Tian and the others.
While they were talking, Ye Tian and the others had already entered this antique and flea market.
Near the entrance of the market, there are mostly places selling handicrafts and tourist souvenirs, and there are no antique artifacts and works of art.
However, the handicrafts unique to Morocco are also worth seeing.
Therefore, the speed of everyone's progress is not fast, and while joking and chatting, while admiring the various goods on both sides of the booth~www.novelhall.com~ It is also very comfortable.
If it weren't for the sturdy armed security personnel around them, their group would not be much different from other tourists who come here to shop on Taobao!
During the conversation, everyone had walked a dozen meters forward and passed several stalls.
At this moment, Professor Douglas suddenly said:
"Steven, what do you think of this clay pot? This pot looks beautiful and very eye-catching"
With that said, the guy pointed to a beautiful blue pottery pot on the stall next to him.
Following the direction of his fingers, everyone immediately looked over.
Ye Tian also glanced at it, then smiled and said:
"This is not an antique or a work of art, Professor Douglas, are you sure you want to use this opportunity?"
Professor Douglas was very open-minded and nodded with a smile.
"It doesn't matter whether it's antiques or artworks, what matters is that I like it. I want to buy this jar and give it to my wife, I believe she will like it too!"
"Yes, like is the most important thing!"
Ye Tian nodded and then introduced:
"This is a blue pottery mosaic pot from Fes, Morocco. It is a special product of Fes, and it is also a very good handicraft. It is very good to display at home as decoration.
The metal inlaid on this pot looks silver. Those red and sapphire are man-made, and the price is not very expensive. It should be possible to do consignment here, and you will save the trouble! "
Listening to his introduction, everyone at the scene was secretly amazed.

That's really exciting, I'm looking forward to the day when this statue of Athena is born""It is conceivable that once this statue of Athena is born, it will cause a huge sensation, and it will definitely become the greatest sculpture in the world!"Next, Ye Tian continued to introduce today's harvest.While he was talking, the assistant lawyer who rushed to Madrid to negotiate with the Spanish government suddenly called.After receiving the call, David asked the assistant lawyer to change to a video call to report the situation over there."Good evening, Steven and David, this afternoon we have had the first meeting with the representatives of the Spanish government and lawyers, and have put forward our demands to severely punish the parties, apologize and compensate and so on.The attitude of the Spanish government is not bad, and it promised to punish the parties involved in this kidnapping case and hold relevant personnel responsible, but it is still in the stage of investigation and evidence collection, and the speed will not be so fast.They also promised to make a public apology, but the amount of compensation has to be negotiated again, and at the same time they made a request, hoping that we will stop frequently mentioning this incident in front of the media and play down the impact of this incident as soon as possible.Ye Tian smiled and shook his head, and said disdainfully:"If you want to downplay the impact of this incident, there is only one way, and that is to deal with the responsible person as soon as possible, make a public apology and make compensation. You can tell the Spaniards that the amount of compensation of 100 million US dollars is not negotiable!""Understood, Steven, I'll pass on your message to the Spanish government representatives and lawyers"The assistant attorney nodded.Next, the guy continued to report the situation and discussed the next negotiation strategy with Ye Tian and David.About half an hour later, the video conference call ended.However, Ye Tian was not able to relax.After a while, the Minister of Culture of Morocco and several experts in the appraisal of antiques, cultural relics and works of art arrived at the hotel.The purpose of their coming here is very simple. They just want to see the top antique cultural relics and works of art that Ye Tian has swept up today, and make a careful appraisal and evaluation.Ye Tian did not refuse, but generously took out those antique cultural relics and works of art for these Moroccans to appreciate and identify.Not only that, he also gave instructions on the spot.The results do not need to ask!Each of those antique cultural relics and works of art is genuine, and they are rare top-level antique cultural relics and works of art, each of which is of great value.The book chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend who I have known for ten years, Mimi read! It's so easy to use, I rely on this reading aloud to pass the time before driving and before going to bed, you can download it hereAfter the appraisal and evaluation, the Minister of Culture of Morocco proposed on the spot that he wanted to buy several of them, such as the red copper jug from the Carthaginian civilization!Ye Tian didn't even listen to their offer, so he shook his head and refused.He told these Moroccans that he would collect these antique artifacts and works of art that he bought today, and welcome them to appreciate these treasures in his private museum in BJ in the future.Faced with such a result, the Minister of Culture of Morocco and others could only accept it, but there was nothing they could do.Seeing that the acquisition was hopeless, they could only leave the hotel angrily and leave the hotel with disappointment.As soon as they came downstairs, the Moroccan Minister of Culture gritted his back molars and instructed his subordinates."Notify the antique dealers in Rabat and Casablanca, and all the guys who run the antique art business, to be on their guard and try to avoid a repeat of what happened today.This greedy bastard, Steven, is too terrifying. If he is allowed to scavenge so recklessly, the good things in the Moroccan antique art market will be looted by this bastard! ""Okay, Mr. Minister, I'll let the wind out tonight!"The subordinate nodded in response.While talking, a few of them walked out of the hotel and left by car.Soon, antique dealers large and small in Rabat and Casabraca, as well as other cities in Morocco, had received the news.Be more careful these days, if that **** from Steven comes to your door, you must be highly vigilant, and don't be ransacked by that greedy bastard!As the news spread rapidly, the field of Moroccan antique art collection suddenly entered a state of turmoil, and everyone was frightened!...The next day, nine in the morning.Ye Tian and the others walked out of the hotel door talking and laughing, preparing to start today's tour.Before them, Nick led the expedition team to excavate and clean up the ancient Roman treasure, and had set off to the ruins of Shera.All day yesterday, they were doing preparations for the excavation.For example, taking detailed pictures of the scene, numbering each stone, each building remnant, determining their location, etc.This work is expected to last a day or two before the actual excavation and clean-up operation can begin.Seeing Ye Tian and the others coming out, the media reporters who were guarding the door of the hotel immediately rushed up and raised their voices to ask questions."Good morning, Steven, I'm a reporter from The Catalan. As far as I know, your company's lawyer held a negotiation with the Spanish government officials in Madrid yesterday. Can you tell us about the negotiation? ""Good morning, Steven, I'm a reporter from Morocco's national TV station. Excuse me, what do you plan to do with the antiques and artworks you bought in Rabat yesterday?"Ye Tian looked at the media reporters outside the cordon, and just waved at them to say hello, but did not respond, and then boarded the bulletproof SUV parked in front of him.When the others got on the bus one after another, the convoy started with a bang and drove away from the hotel door.About 20 minutes later, the team arrived at the entrance of an antique flea market at the junction of Rabat New City and Saale Old City.This is the largest antique and flea market in Rabat, not far from Udaya Castle.The arrival of the United Exploration Team immediately attracted a lot of attention, and people at the entrance of the market looked over.A few days later, the citizens of Rabat already knew the origin of the convoy and who was sitting in those sturdy bulletproof SUVs.The moment they saw the team, there was a commotion in the crowd."Look, that guy Steven is here. Sure enough, this greedy **** is bent on sweeping the Rabat antique art market!""Isn't it? It seems that someone is going to be unlucky today. There may be many stalls to be ransacked, and even the entire market will usher in a catastrophe!"Just as people were talking about it, Ye Tian got out of the car and stood at the door of the market, looking at the largest and most important antiques market in Morocco.This is an Arab-style market, and the most people coming and going are naturally Arabs and Berbers in robes and so on.Different from other Arab countries that I have visited before, there are many Arab women shopping here because of the relatively civilized folk customs in Morocco.Although they also wore Arabian robes, their faces, hands and feet were not covered, and the clothes were colorful, which was a good sight.In addition to the local Arabs and Berbers, there are many tourists from all over the world, including many Chinese tourists.Just as Ye Tian was looking at this antique and flea market.The news of his coming here has quickly swept the entire market like a tornado, reaching the ears of many people.Especially the shopkeepers and stall owners who run the antique business are annoyed after receiving the news."Damn it, Steven, the greedy bastard, is still here, it's not a good thing"After some cursing, these guys began to examine the goods in their hands to see if there was anything good that they had overlooked, so as not to be looted.Sadly, most people don't find anything.The things in the store and on the booth, what they were before and what they are now, have not changed.It wasn't because they looked at it a few more times that the value of those things suddenly increased.Market entrance.Ye Haiya and Professor Paul came one after another and joined Ye Tian and the others in one place.After everyone arrived, Ye Tian smiled and said:"Gentlemen, let's go shopping together in this famous antique and flea market. I have been famous for this market for a long time. I hope that today I can make some surprising discoveries and return with a full reward.Since you are here, you can't accompany me for a day. If you see something that you like, like antiques and cultural relics, and you are undecided, I can help you take a look! "Before he finished speaking, Professor Paul's eyes suddenly lit up and radiated light.Several Moroccan officials, including Yahya, were also excited and full of expectations."It's great, Steven, with the help of a top expert in antiques and works of art like you, we might be able to get one or two valuable antiques and works of art."Professor Kane said excitedly, looking eager to try."However, I declare in advance that I will only help each of you three times, and I will not care if more than three times, so you must use these three opportunities carefully."Ye Tian continued with a smile and said, taking a dose of vaccination.Otherwise, he wouldn't even think about doing other things today, he wouldn't be able to help these old friends."Okay, Steven, three chances are already a lot. If we haven't found anything in this situation, it means that our vision and luck are very poor, and we can't blame others!"Professor Paul nodded and said, and everyone else nodded."Okay, that's all I have to say, gentlemen, let's go in, I hope everyone can find out."With that said, Ye Tian stepped into this antique and flea market.The others followed immediately, all full of anticipation.Many security personnel led by Mattis, as well as security personnel from Morocco, also followed, scattered around Ye Tian and the others, staring vigilantly around them.In the bustling crowd, there are also many security personnel disguised as locals and tourists, keeping an eye on the people around them and protecting them in secret.In several relatively high buildings around the market, there are also several sniper teams hidden, condescendingly monitoring this antique and flea market and protecting Ye Tian and the others.While they were talking, Ye Tian and the others had already entered this antique and flea market.Near the entrance of the market, there are mostly places selling handicrafts and tourist souvenirs, and there are no antique artifacts and works of art.However, the handicrafts unique to Morocco are also worth seeing.Therefore, the speed of everyone's progress is not fast, and while joking and chatting, while admiring the various goods on both sides of the booth~www.novelhall.com~ It is also very comfortable.If it weren't for the sturdy armed security personnel around them, their group would not be much different from other tourists who come here to shop on Taobao!During the conversation, everyone had walked a dozen meters forward and passed several stalls.At this moment, Professor Douglas suddenly said:"Steven, what do you think of this clay pot? This pot looks beautiful and very eye-catching"With that said, the guy pointed to a beautiful blue pottery pot on the stall next to him.Following the direction of his fingers, everyone immediately looked over.Ye Tian also glanced at it, then smiled and said:"This is not an antique or a work of art, Professor Douglas, are you sure you want to use this opportunity?"Professor Douglas was very open-minded and nodded with a smile."It doesn't matter whether it's antiques or artworks, what matters is that I like it. I want to buy this jar and give it to my wife, I believe she will like it too!""Yes, like is the most important thing!"Ye Tian nodded and then introduced:"This is a blue pottery mosaic pot from Fes, Morocco. It is a special product of Fes, and it is also a very good handicraft. It is very good to display at home as decoration.The metal inlaid on this pot looks silver. Those red and sapphire are man-made, and the price is not very expensive. It should be possible to do consignment here, and you will save the trouble! "Listening to his introduction, everyone at the scene was secretly amazed.This guy is really amazing. He can see so many things at a glance from three or four meters away. It seems that there is really nothing he doesn't know! Click to download this site APP, massive novels, free to read!
