"Gentlemen, please be patient. Of course I know that "The Woman Holding a Silver-Strung Mouse" is a Polish national treasure and can never be exchanged. It is just a metaphor. There is no need to be so angry!"
Ye Tian stretched out his hands and pressed down, smiling.
When he said this, his expression was quite relaxed and not at all nervous. He obviously didn't take the other party's anger seriously!
Several Poles across the street sat down one after another, but everyone was still angry and might explode at any time.
"It's just a joke, don't mind it! Now let me tell you what I think. Didn't I ask for 500 million US dollars before? The price is not negotiable, but the payment method can be adjusted slightly.
I require that US$200 million must be paid in cash. This is a hard condition. The remaining US$300 million difference can be replaced by antique artworks of equal value. Is this flexibility acceptable? "
This is the real condition, Ye Tian begins to show his fangs!
"$200 million in cash! Yes! We can accept this condition. Now tell us what top antiques and artworks you want to replace the remaining $300 million!"
Duke Toresky said while biting his back molars, his face extremely ugly!
"As everyone knows, I am a Chinese and love the antiques of my country. What I am interested in is the Chinese antiques collected by your museum.
As for the Torresky Museum, you value Western art works more, and Chinese antiques are just embellishments. I’m sure you won’t be reluctant to part with them, right?
If you agree, then we can continue the discussion; if not, then it is a pity that you will have no choice but to go to the auction and fight with the top rich people from all over the world! "
Ye Tian said with a calm smile, very confident.
He was sure that the Poles would accept this condition. This was their only chance to take back "Portrait of a Young Man". How could they give up!
The Torresky Museum has many top-notch antiques and artworks from China, but there are a few dead foreigners who know how to appreciate them. Many treasures are kept in the warehouse to collect dust all year round!
In this case, how could you miss this opportunity to loot? Those treasures should change their owners!
Duke Toresky's face looks better, and his anger is gradually receding!
Compared to Raphael's famous paintings, those beautiful Chinese antique artworks are indeed not very important in his eyes, and there is nothing he would be reluctant to part with!
"Steven, I can accept this condition. Use Chinese antiques to offset the remaining 300 million U.S. dollars. Tell me you are interested in those antiques. I hope you will keep your promise and the value will be equal!"
This is easy to talk about!
Ye Tian smiled softly and immediately began to list the goals he had already set.
"Don't worry, Mr. Duke. As we all know, I have always been a person who keeps my promises. As long as it is what I said personally, there is absolutely no reason to deny it!
Let’s start with antique porcelain. Your museum has a pair of Jun kiln plum vases from the Northern Song Dynasty in China, which I like very much, and a jade pot and spring vase from the Longquan kiln in the Southern Song Dynasty, which I also like very much!
In addition, there are a large Xuande blue and white porcelain plate from the Ming Dynasty, a pair of Xuande blue and white hand cups, and a single Chenghua doucai Gaoshi cup. These porcelains are also included.
Let's talk about calligraphy and painting works, "Dongting Landscape" by Mi Fu of the Northern Song Dynasty, two calligraphy works by Zhao Ji, Huizong of the Song Dynasty, "Hermitage in Dongshan" by Wang Meng of the Yuan Dynasty, and meticulous painting albums by Qiu Ying of the Ming Dynasty. That's basically it! "
Duke Toreski was completely dumbfounded. His eyes widened and he stared at Ye Tian. His eyes almost exploded with shock!
The deputy director of the Torresky Museum also had the same expression, his eyes were full of madness!
The rest of the people were okay and their expressions were relatively normal. That’s because they didn’t understand the value of these Chinese antiques and artworks that Ye Tian mentioned!
If I had known it, I would have screamed crazily!
After about half a minute, Duke Toresky finally came to his senses.
Immediately afterwards, he sucked in the cold air, gritted his back molars and said:
"Steven, you should not be a professional treasure hunter, but a robber. That is the most suitable profession for you. Your request is simply crazy!
You are planning to sweep away all the top-notch Chinese antiques in our museum! Which of these you mentioned is not a top-notch antique artwork worth tens of millions of dollars? "
"Wow! They are all worth tens of millions of dollars. It's too exaggerated!"
There was an exclamation in the conference room. Everyone was shocked by Duke Tresky's words, and they were even more frightened by Ye Tian's huge appetite.
"Yes, these traditional Chinese porcelains, calligraphy and paintings are top-notch antique works of art. I don't deny this. If they don't reach this level, I won't be able to appreciate them!
It is true that their prices are more than ten million US dollars, but compared to Raphael's "Portrait of a Young Man", there is a huge difference! All things added up, the value is almost equal!
This is my condition, how about it, are you willing to exchange it? If you agree, then this is undoubtedly a happy result for everyone, and you will soon be able to get that famous Raphael painting! "
What can the Poles do? They can only accept this result! Who allowed them to encounter such a tough and extremely difficult opponent!
"Okay! Steven, we accept your terms!"
Duke Toresky said with a wry smile, a look of pain on his face.
"That's great! Deal!"
Ye Tian cheered, then shook hands with the other party and formally reached an agreement.
"Deal! You are the greediest **** I have ever seen! You are also a hateful robber!"
While shaking hands, Duke Tresky laughed and cursed a few words in an annoyed tone.
"Hahaha, as a business partner, it seems that you shouldn't slander my reputation like this, it's disrespectful! Fortunately, I have a broad mind and don't care about this!
Here, I would like to congratulate you, Mr. Duke, and also congratulate all the Polish people. You are about to welcome back a national treasure that has been lost for more than half a century. Congratulations! "
Ye Tian laughed and said, extremely proud!
"Forget it now! We are here to be robbed like crazy by you bastard. We are so unlucky! Fortunately, we also gained something and our journey was not in vain!
I will notify the museum staff in Poland later and ask them to transport those Chinese antiques to New York as soon as possible to trade with you greedy bastard.
As for the US$200 million, our museum and the Polish government will each bear half of it, and they can be transferred and paid at any time, of course, only when you get Raphael's "Portrait of a Young Man""
Duke Toresky rolled his eyes and said, his face no longer as ugly as before!
For him, the biggest purpose of this trip is to get back the famous Raphael painting.
As long as this goal can be achieved, it is not unacceptable to pay US$200 million in cash and those top Chinese antiques!
"Okay! I believe that within a few days, you will see Raphael's "Portrait of a Young Man"!"
Ye Tian nodded and said with a chuckle,
Next, the two parties discussed the details of the transaction again, and the atmosphere was much more friendly than before.
At around four o'clock, these Poles stood up to say goodbye and left the conference room under the leadership of Jason.
The moment they walked out of the conference room and the door closed, an extremely excited cheer sounded in the room!
"Great! It's all done, I can return to Boston and make a fortune!"
