At around ten o'clock in the evening, the four top art insurance companies finally reached a consensus.
They decided to jointly insure "Lisa Gradini", and the insurance amount was exactly the 2 billion euros set by Ye Tian.
This is just the insurance amount. The insurance premium that Ye Tian needs to bear is certainly not such an exaggeration, but it is still a staggering and astonishing number.
Ye Tian didn't care at all about this fee, it was just a drop in the bucket.
Furthermore, this cost will eventually be passed on to other people, and you don’t have to bear it at all.
Whoever wins "Lisa Gradini" in the end will have to bear the sky-high insurance premium.
After the four art insurance companies decided to jointly underwrite the insurance, they immediately informed Ye Tian.
The moment he received the news, Ye Tian immediately decided to strike while the iron was hot.
At midnight that day, in a conference room at the Four Seasons Hotel, Ye Tian signed insurance contracts with four art insurance companies and handed over "Lisa Gradini" to them.
Next, taking advantage of the darkness and the golden opportunity when the protest crowd in front of the hotel dispersed, the joint security team of four art insurance companies used a helicopter to take away this priceless treasure from the air.
Then, they stored this priceless treasure in a secret vault and arranged a large number of heavily armed security personnel to guard it, making it very safe.
The security personnel guarding the secret vault also come from four art insurance companies according to Ye Tian's requirements, and their strength is balanced, so they can supervise and check and balance each other!
The passwords and fingerprints to open the vault are in the hands of the managers of four art insurance companies. No one can open the secret vault without being on site!
All these actions were carried out under the cover of night, without anyone noticing, and almost hidden from the eyes of everyone, including many news media and the Milan police.
Even the Italian cultural relics gendarmes who had been watching Ye Tian's every move and "Lisa Gradini" were kept in the dark.
When the sun rose again, Ye Tian had transferred all risks and became relaxed.
After having breakfast in the early morning and resting in the room for a while, seeing that the time was almost up, Ye Tian and the others set off again, preparing to continue visiting the places of interest in Milan.
In Ye Tian's plan, there are two places they will visit today, and the two scenic spots are very close to each other, only a few hundred meters apart and can be reached on foot!
The first attraction is the famous Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, which is where Leonardo da Vinci's other masterpiece, "The Last Supper" is located.
The second attraction is the famous Sforza Castle, the castle of the Sforza family, the former rulers of Milan, and the place where Leonardo da Vinci once lived and worked for a long time.
After visiting the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, you can choose to walk to Sforza Castle for a tour. On the way, you will pass by the ancient street written on the back of "Lisa Gradini".
Taking this opportunity, Ye Tian planned to explore the ancient street built in the fourteenth century to see if he could discover Leonardo da Vinci's former residence and whether there were any secrets hidden there.
Coming out of the elevator, Ye Tian immediately saw Giovanni waiting in the hotel lobby, several other Italian cultural relics gendarmes, and seven or eight Milan police officers in plainclothes.
In addition, beside Giovanni, he also saw two familiar faces.
Those are two top antique art appraisal experts in Italy, who are well-known in the industry. Although they have never met before, they are known to them.
Ye Tian knew why these two antique art appraisal experts appeared here. Of course they came here for "Lisa Gradini".
As expected, they must be experts and scholars who came to Milan with the Italian Minister of Culture to authenticate "Lisa Gradini".
"Good morning, Giovanni, I didn't expect to see you so early in the morning. Please don't tell me that you stayed here all night"
Ye Tian said jokingly, greeting his old friend Giovanni.
"Good morning, Steven, I just came here. I was not here last night. It looks like you are going out? Where are you going?
Since you are going out, where will you put Leonardo da Vinci's "Lisa Gradini"? Is it safe? When can we authenticate that painting?
My immediate boss and several antique art appraisal experts from Rome have been waiting in Milan for more than a day. I hope you will not keep them waiting too long."
Giovanni also said hello to Ye Tian and then asked a series of questions.
"Yes, Giovanni, we do want to go out and visit. There are many famous attractions in Milan. Since we have come to this city, of course we cannot miss them.
Today we are going to visit the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, and prepare to appreciate Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece, "The Last Supper", and experience the great charm of that painting.
Next, we will visit the nearby Sforza Castle, where there is the last sculpture left by Michelangelo in the world, which is also not to be missed.
As for "Lisa Gradini", don't worry, that oil painting is now stored in a very private and safe place, and there will be no problems.
I have said before that before I complete the appraisal, others can only wait patiently. I believe it will not be long before you can see the oil painting."
Hearing what he said, the three Italian guys opposite could not help but roll their eyes angrily, but they had no choice but to be secretly depressed!
There is no way, who let "Lisa Gradini" be in the hands of this **** Steven, and this **** is extremely difficult to deal with. He always has the initiative, and others can only be led by his nose!
Next, Giovanni introduced the two antique art appraisal experts around him and explained their purpose of coming to Milan.
After getting to know each other and chatting for a few words, the two people immediately asked about the situation of "Lisa Gradini". Their eyes shone with excitement and were full of anticipation.
Ye Tian randomly selected a few things on the oil painting that did not need to be kept secret, introduced them to the two appraisal experts, and dealt with them.
After chatting for a while, Ye Tian said goodbye and left, taking Betty straight to the door of the hotel.
At the same time, Cole, who was walking next to him, also reported the situation to him in a low voice.
"Steven, our snipers are ambushing in two buildings near the hotel, controlling the protesting crowd outside the hotel from a high position.
In addition, a few strangers pretended to be petitioners and protest demonstrators and had already blended into the crowd outside the hotel. No dangerous elements had been found yet.
Even if there are guys with ulterior motives lurking in the crowd, there is not much of a threat. Our bulletproof SUVs can completely block the view from outside.
As for the Santa Maria delle Grazie Church, several guys have already rushed there and are investigating the situation there, and have not found any danger for the time being."
"Okay, Cole, inform all the guys to be vigilant, not only to be careful of the revenge of the Casamonica family and the Gypsy gang, but also to be careful of some hot-headed idiots!"
With that said, Ye Tian and his group walked out of the Four Seasons Hotel.
At this time, the motorcade had arrived at the entrance of the hotel and was parked end to end, perfectly blocking the view from afar.
Even so, many media reporters gathered near the entrance of the Four Seasons Hotel, as well as the passionate petitioners and protest demonstrators, still discovered them.
The next moment, the entrance to the Four Seasons Hotel was like a volcano erupting, with shouts and protests suddenly erupting.
"Steven, Leonardo da Vinci's "Lisa Gradini" belongs to Italy and Milan. You can't take it away. Leave that oil painting in Milan!"
"You are a complete **** and the most abominable gangster, Steven. Keep Leonardo da Vinci's "Lisa Gradini" and go back to the **** United States. You are not welcome in Milan!"
Ye Tian didn't bother to pay attention to these deafening noises.
He first took a quick look at all the vehicles, and after making sure they were safe, he immediately reached out and opened the rear door of a Mercedes-Benz bulletproof SUV, and got into the car with Betty.
Soon, their heavy-duty convoy started with a bang, escorted by several Milan police cars, and slowly drove away from the Four Seasons Hotel!
Just like when they returned to the hotel from the Canal Antique Market, many vehicles followed their convoy again and followed them to the Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie!
