Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 409 Surprisingly Heavy Treasure

Upstairs, the room where the old-fashioned safe is.

Ye Tian opened the heavy and strong door of the vault, walked in alone, and prepared to take out the heavyweight antique artworks that were about to be auctioned, and bring them downstairs for appraisal by Sotheby's experts.

By the way, let them open their eyes and shock these professionals!

Even in top auction houses like Sotheby's in New York, top works of art like Pollock's paintings are not common! It's pretty good to come across a few pieces a year!

To avoid suspicion, Jason did not enter the room, but waited outside the door, waiting for Ye Tian to open the door again and beckon him in.

Soon, Ye Tian took out those antique works of art, put them on the table in the room, and closed the vault door again.

Then, he stretched out his hand and pulled the door hard to confirm that it was closed! Then he turned the mechanical combination lock a few times quickly, completely disrupting the combination and ensuring the safety of the vault.

All actions are very careful and cautious! Meticulous!

After doing this, he opened the door and let Jason in.

"Jason, you take these two paintings and I take the Portland vase, let's go downstairs together to shock those Sotheby's appraisal experts!"

Looking at the three objects on the table, Jason asked curiously:

"Steven, I understand that these two paintings are top-notch works of art, one is the work of "South American Picasso" Guayasamin, and the other is the work of Pollock, they must be of extraordinary value!

But what could this Portland vase be worth? Is it also a top antique? As far as I know, the real Portland vase has been in the British Museum, so there's no way this could be the real thing!

Portland vases are known to be unique, so how can a Wedgwood copy compare with Pollock? I don't quite understand why you attach so much importance to it! "

Not only did Jason have this question, I am afraid that everyone except Ye Tian was puzzled by this, and did not understand the value of this Portland vase!

But they didn't question it either, as long as Steven said it was a top-level antique work of art, it would definitely not run away! This vase is sure to be a top antique!

Everyone is very sure of this, because Steven has never looked past it, and this time is no exception!

Previously,

Ye Tian has never explained about the Portland vase, and now, he doesn't intend to!

"Jason, who said that replicas are worthless? The value of this Portland vase is not necessarily lower than that of Pollock's paintings, or even higher!

Regarding the specific situation of this vase, I will give an explanation later, which is enough to solve the doubts in your mind, go downstairs, the guys downstairs are probably already waiting for their eyes! "

Ye Tian said with a smile, with an unpredictable and profound smile on his face.

"Okay! Let's go downstairs, I'm really looking forward to the moment when the answer is revealed!"

Jason nodded in response, and glanced at the Portland vase again, his eyes still full of curiosity.

Afterwards, the two walked out of the vault room and went downstairs with three top-level antique works of art!

This does not include General Sherman's march notes, which are still vacuum-packed and placed in a safe in the vault at this time!

As for how to deal with this note, Ye Tian has not yet come up with a perfect plan. He never thought of how to squeeze out the maximum value of this note and bring the maximum benefit for himself.

Therefore, he does not plan to send this note for auction for the time being, and plans to keep it in his own hands, and slowly consider how to deal with this note.

Of course, if he operates like this, many people will be very disappointed, and it will be even more itchy!

But which onions are they? Ye Tian doesn't care! Love so and so!

In the eagerly awaited eyes of everyone, Ye Tian and Jason appeared in front of everyone again, holding in their hands several top-level works of art that everyone had been longing for for a long time.

Like Jason and the others, seeing the Portland vase in Ye Tian's hand, all the appraisal experts present were stunned, their eyes full of disbelief!

Why is Steven carrying a Portland vase? Is this a top antique work of art? how is this possible?

Everyone clearly knew that it was definitely a replica! If it is a real Roman Portland vase, it will definitely be a sensation all over the world, and it will be worth 500 to 600 million U.S. dollars!

Why would a replica matter so much to Steven? Did this guy miss it? The possibility of this is so small that it is almost impossible to happen! Who ever heard of this guy walking by?

In an instant, everyone's head was full of question marks and full of curiosity!

"Ladies and gentlemen, these are the top antique works of art that everyone is eager to see, and I am going to send them up for auction. There are three pieces in total, one vase and two paintings!

Everyone, please come with me to appreciate these antique works of art together, and then you can start the appraisal and give your most professional and authoritative appraisal opinions and conclusions.

I believe that everyone will be able to reap surprises and enjoy the unique charm of these top artworks. I hope that everyone will also surprise me and give me the most desirable and pleasant answers! "

Ye Tian said with a smile, his words were full of confidence.

Then he walked into the dining room with a vase, where there was a huge solid wood dining table, which was undoubtedly the best place to display it!

Many Sotheby's experts followed, both excited and curious!

After walking to the dining table and standing still, Ye Tian immediately said to Jason:

"Jason, you are waiting with these two paintings. I am going to show the Portland vase first, to solve everyone's doubts, so that everyone will not be tortured by curiosity!"

"OK!"

Jason nodded and stepped back, looking curiously at the Portland vase.

The rest of the people at the scene were also waiting for the answer to be revealed!

Ye Tian didn't start to show right away, but continued to arrange.

"Walker, Raymond, the answer will be revealed soon, everyone's emotions may be more excited, and there may be relatively large body movements that damage this vase!

All you two have to do is to protect this Portland vase, don't let too many people approach it at the same time, only two people are allowed to visit at a time, line up to appreciate it, there is no room for loss! "

"Okay! Steven, we know what to do!"

Walker and Raymond responded in unison, then walked to the table and stood up, ready to perform the task.

Because the antique artworks will be escorted to Sotheby's later, Matisse and his team are fully armed, wearing body armor and holding automatic rifles.

At this moment, Walker and Raymond stood at the dining table with automatic rifles in their hands, and the air in the entire restaurant suddenly froze, and the temperature seemed to drop several degrees!

"hiss--!"

Seeing this scene, many appraisal experts couldn't help but gasp! He stared dumbfounded at Ye Tian, ​​at Walker and Raymond holding rifles, and at that Portland vase!

As for such a big fanfare? Is it too exaggerated? Is that Portland vase really a top treasure?

After a short pause, Ye Tian said loudly into the living room again:

"Anderson, bring my detection tools and my laptop, I'm going to give you a live demonstration"

"Okay! Here we go!"

Anderson responded, then came to the restaurant with some equipment and a laptop, and handed them to Ye Tian.

It's an endoscope, with its own display, and two cameras with cranks.

Endoscopes are very common in hospitals. They are mainly used to check the internal conditions of the human body and are a very important medical device.

But it is not only used in the medical field, it is also a very important tool in the field of antique identification!

Especially when appraising antique porcelain, it can play a more important role. As long as there is an expert in antique porcelain appraisal, almost everyone has one!

It can be used to check the internal conditions of utensils such as vases, check whether there are hidden secrets inside the utensils, whether there are cracks, special marks, traces of forgery, etc., it is very useful!

The set of endoscopes brought by Anderson is for this purpose. Ye Tian intends to use it to show the internal situation of the Portland vase and reveal the answer for everyone!

Those two cameras with cranks are also used for this function. By using them, the situation inside the vase can be clearly displayed on the laptop and displayed in front of everyone!

After taking these devices and checking them a bit, Ye Tian smiled and said to everyone:

"Ladies and gentlemen, you will see a set of fascinating images that will reveal the secrets of this Portland vase, and you must be very eager to know the answer! Stay tuned!"

As he spoke, he picked up the endoscope and carefully inserted the probe into the mouth of the Portland vase.

The gazes of all appraisal experts on the scene were fixed on the monitoring screen of the endoscope, and each pair of eyes was full of expectation and curiosity8)
