"Bang!"
The auction hammer fell heavily with a loud noise.
Immediately afterwards, the auctioneer's passionate voice immediately came from the stage and resounded throughout the entire auction hall.
"Two hundred and eighty-two million US dollars, deal done! The winning bidder is the buyer holding the bidding card No. 9. Congratulations to these gentlemen from Harvard University for taking the photo of "General Sherman's March Notes"! ”
Before the auctioneer's voice fell, the Harvard scholars sitting in the second row of seats had already jumped up excitedly and started cheering and celebrating.
"Awesome! Finally we got this important historical document!"
"I can't wait to open that notebook and see what that ruthless guy Sherman did in the South! How he destroyed the South!"
While they were cheering and celebrating, other buyers competing for this important historical document could only shake their heads in disappointment, with very bitter expressions! His eyes were full of regret.
A crime other than war!
Harvard University is so rich, and they are not stingy, adding five to five million dollars to them. In their eyes, US dollars are just like waste paper, without any value, and they can be squandered at will!
Who can resist such a crazy competitor!
After a short period of disappointment, many buyers at the scene all stood up and gave warm applause to Harvard University, which had the last laugh. They behaved very gracefully.
Ye Tian and Betty also stood up and turned around to congratulate the Harvard scholars on defeating all their competitors and successfully acquiring this important historical document.
Those from Harvard University also expressed their congratulations to him and congratulated him on gaining a large amount of wealth.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian nodded to the people from the School of History at Columbia University, and lightly shrugged his shoulders, saying that he could not help!
This is a fair competition. The reason why you didn't win this "General Sherman's March Notes" is because you are incompetent and can't beat others. You can't blame me, buddy!
At this point, this special auction of American history and culture has come to a successful conclusion.
In this special shoot, Ye Tian is undoubtedly the biggest winner, smiling brighter than anyone else! Very proud too!
In addition to "General Sherman's March Notes", he also has two oil paintings by famous modern American painters, which also appeared on the stage at this auction and were sold successfully.
Each of these three items fetched sky-high prices, bringing him a total fortune of US$345 million, setting a new record since the beginning of the New York spring auction season!
And this is just a small climax, the real carnival has not yet begun!
On the evening of that day, another heavyweight auction started, the ‘Evening Sale of European Impressionist Art from the Mid-19th to the Early 20th Century’.
In this evening auction, several top-notch works of art auctioned by Ye Tiansong were unveiled one after another, appearing at the auction site and in front of many bidders.
These are four oil paintings by the four Impressionist art masters: Pissarro, Manet, Sisley, and Degas. They are well-deserved top-notch works of art, and each one is worth a lot of money!
Seeing the appearance of these top-notch works of art, the auction site immediately became excited, quickly pushing this Impressionist art evening auction to a climax.
Next, there were several fierce and unusual competitions, and the biggest winner was still Ye Tian, who was sitting firmly on Diaoyutai.
Through this evening auction, Ye Tian once again made a huge fortune, with four top-quality works of art selling for a total of US$115 million.
In just one day, Ye Tian made away with a huge fortune of US$460 million in the New York spring auction market. The amount is exaggerated and the amount of effort is unprecedented!
As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a huge sensation. Almost everyone was shocked and stunned, and their eyes were red with jealousy!
The next morning, Ye Tian’s another ‘Caribbean Shipwreck Treasures Special Auction’ started. This time it was at Bonhams Auction House instead of the previous Christie’s.
Like the previous special auction, the items in this auction are all antique artworks, various gemstones, and other gold and silver treasures selected from the treasures of Caribbean shipwrecks.
Most of the auction items come from the treasures of the Malaga Princess shipwreck. Each piece is a fine product and is of great value!
The auction went very smoothly. These treasures, which had been sleeping deep under the sea for hundreds of years, were still dazzling and were highly praised and pursued by many buyers at the scene.
Especially gemstones of various colors that appear in batches and are of excellent quality are the objects of enthusiastic pursuit by major jewelry companies and many luxury brands. Competition is very fierce.
For them, this is the best time to hoard gems. Opportunities like this only come across once every few years, so how can they miss it!
There is no doubt that this is another successful special auction.
Most of the items that appeared in this auction were sold successfully. Only a few gold and silver products failed to be auctioned, which is of no concern at all.
Through this special shoot, Ye Tian and the Brave and Intrepid Exploration Company once again made a huge fortune and once again shocked the world.
In the next few days, various antique artworks from Ye Tianhe and Brave and Fearless Exploration Company continued to appear at the auctions of major auction houses in New York, harvesting US dollars again and again!
At one of the auctions, Ellsworth's most cherished jadeite ring was also sold successfully. The transaction price was US$15 million, exceeding the estimate by nearly US$5 million!
The buyer who bought this top-quality jadeite ring is a famous antique dealer from London, England. He has been a close friend of Ellsworth for many years and has always known each other!
The reason why he took the photo of the jade ring was to commemorate his old friend and prevent the jade ring from falling into the hands of others. This was also a good story and won a round of applause.
While the spring auction season in New York was in full swing, the deep-sea salvage ship ordered by Ye Tian, the ‘Brave and Dauntless’, was finally completed and underwent scientific and rigorous sea trials.
After confirming that there were no problems, the deep-sea salvage ship worth 50 to 60 million US dollars began its maiden voyage, heading straight from the construction site to New York.
When it arrived at New York Harbor successfully, it was already May 10th!
This time is just right. In the next period of time, everyone can get familiar with this deep-sea salvage ship, and add various deep-sea salvage equipment, high-tech exploration equipment, etc.
According to Ye Tian's estimate, it will cost at least tens of millions of dollars to build all the equipment into the most advanced and safest deep-sea salvage ship available today!
Fortunately, he has no shortage of dollars in his pocket, he has as many as he wants! If you are willing to build it, you will naturally not care about the huge configuration cost.
On the day the deep-sea salvage ship "Fearless" arrived in New York, Ye Tian personally boarded the ship and used his clairvoyance powers to give the salvage ship the most thorough physical examination.
He did not find any safety hazards on this newly built large ship. The hull was quite strong and it was a very suitable ship for long voyages. The inspection results were satisfactory.
Subsequently, Ye Tian made a handover with the shipyard representative and completed the delivery procedures.
Next, the company’s highly paid captain, many crew members, and some technicians boarded the ship one after another to get familiar with the deep-sea salvage ship and prepare for the Cocos Island treasure hunt in mid-to-late June.
At the same time, two small submarines, several underwater robots of different depths, a brand new Bell medium helicopter, and other high-tech exploration equipment that the company had ordered in advance began to come on board and took their places.
The same goes for various deep-sea salvage equipment. They have also begun to be installed and debugged on the ship, integrating with the salvage ship and exerting the value of its existence!
Time is fast approaching May 12th, and another heavyweight auction is coming. Michelangelo's "The Creation of Adam" is about to be unveiled!
When the auction ends, Ye Tian will fly to San Jose, the capital of Costa Rica, to sign a cooperation agreement on joint exploration of Cocos Island!
That will cause a huge sensation and shock the attention of countless people!
