After several days of deliberation and negotiation, Ye Tian finally got his wish and took over the land on East 78th Street in Manhattan to build his second private museum, the Museum of Indian History.
As he expected, the price he paid for acquiring this piece of land was very low, just like picking it up for free.
This can happen for a number of reasons.
The first reason is that the use of this land is very restricted. It can only be used to build the Indian History Museum and cannot be used to build other messy commercial buildings or apartments.
As for cultural exhibitions and semi-public welfare sites such as museums, no matter which country they are in, there will be certain policy preferences and care, and New York is no exception!
The second reason is that the New York City government very much hopes that this world-class museum will be located in Manhattan to further enhance New York's cultural taste and international image.
To put it bluntly, this can be regarded as an image project of the New York City Government, and it is not the New York City Government that funded the construction of this museum, so why not do it!
In addition, the completion of this Indian History Museum will also give New York a good impression among the Indians and Mayans, making New York a research center for the Mayan civilization!
The third reason is the selfishness of the mayor of New York and relevant high-level officials of the city government.
Once this world-class museum is completed, it will undoubtedly become one of their political achievements during their term of office, and it will be a very dazzling one. This will be of great help to them in their re-election campaign or even further!
Another point is that most of these guys live in the Upper East Side of New York, or yearn for life in the Upper East Side, and plan to move there if they have the opportunity in the future. Of course, they hope that there will be a world-class museum near the community where they live!
This is human nature, no matter where you are, it is no exception!
Although Ye Tian successfully acquired the land and signed the relevant agreement, neither the Brave Exploration Company nor the New York City Government immediately announced the news.
The reason is mainly because of the tenants living in the old buildings on East 78th Street.
How to remove those tenants smoothly and quickly is a very troublesome matter. Ye Tian does not want to be this evil person who will inevitably be cursed and hated.
He left this matter to the New York City Government to handle, and let the New York City Government be the villain. Anyway, there are too many lice to worry about!
In fact, the old buildings on East 78th Street were originally properties owned by the New York City government, and they have the right and obligation to evict the tenants in those buildings.
Of course, they also have this ability. The policemen that the New York City government spends a lot of money to support are not just useless people!
All Ye Tian can do is provide certain financial support.
As long as the tenants living in those old buildings agree to move out as soon as possible, they will receive a large bonus, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation.
It has nothing to do with him as to where those tenants end up moving or whether they live on the streets.
That is something that the New York City Government needs to consider. The New York City Government has enough vacant properties to accommodate the tenants who have moved out!
When all the tenants in those old buildings are cleared out, the transaction contract signed by Ye Tian and the New York City Government will truly take effect, and he will pay off the remaining transaction price!
At that time, the land sale and purchase transaction will be made public, and the design and construction work of the Indian History Museum will begin quickly and orderly!
And all of this will take some time to operate, it may be a few weeks, or it may take a few months!
In order to keep it secret, Ye Tian issued a gag order in his company and asked every employee who knew about it to sign a confidentiality agreement, including David and his assistants. They must not leak any information to the outside world!
The mayor of New York and several senior government officials who participated in the negotiations also promised to strictly keep secrets and never leak the information until all tenants are successfully evicted!
Everyone knows that once this news is leaked, it will be very difficult to successfully evict the tenants living in those old buildings, and a huge price will inevitably be paid.
By then, it will be a sure thing that those tenants are asking for exorbitant prices!
One more thing, once the news spreads that the Museum of Indian History is about to open on East 78th Street in Manhattan, the prices of land and housing in that neighborhood will rocket up and start to skyrocket!
No matter Ye Tian or the senior officials of the New York City Government, no one wants to see such a situation happen before they are ready. This is of course driven by interests, and everyone understands it tacitly!
During the negotiations with the New York City Government, Ye Tian also met several times with old friends from top auction houses such as Sotheby's and Christie's, and finalized the list of antique artworks to be sent to the summer auction, continuing to crazily sweep away wealth. .
At the same time, good news continues to come from the site of cleaning up the treasures of the Golden City of the Mayan Empire in Honduras. The cleaning work of the Golden City treasures is gradually coming to an end.
Even in the sacred lake in the center of the Golden City, Jason and Cole used underwater robots to sneak into the lake and clean it up. A large number of priceless Mayan antiques were removed from the lake.
Of course, what has been cleaned up the most are the massive amounts of gold and various gems thrown into the lake by the ancient Mayans when they performed sacrifices, as well as the diamonds brought to the surface from deep underground when volcanoes erupted.
As for the Mayan sacred mountain that stood in the lake, Cole and the others also found a way to fly across the lake and roughly cleaned up the Mayan sacred mountain. They also cleaned up a large number of priceless Mayan antiques!
So far, the only things that have not been cleared up in the Golden City of the Mayan Empire are the huge architectural ruins and antique artifacts that are difficult to move, as well as the treasures buried deep underground.
If you want to clean up this part of the Golden City treasure, you can only wait for the rainy season and hurricane season in Honduras to pass before cleaning and moving this part of the treasure!
In fact, most of the treasures buried deep underground in the Golden City are gold and silver treasures such as gold and various gemstones. There are relatively few valuable Mayan antiques.
Ye Tian is not very concerned about this part of the Golden City's treasures. The one who really cares about it and is prepared to increase efforts to protect this part of the treasures is the Honduran government.
And this is exactly what Ye Tianle saw. The Honduran government increased its efforts to protect the Golden City of the Mayan Empire, and naturally also protected those Mayan civilization ruins that were difficult to move and those unusually heavy antique cultural relics!
This is a matter of killing two birds with one stone and benefiting both parties, so he will naturally not object!
The rest of the Mayan antique artifacts above the surface that can be moved manually have been basically cleared out. They are now piled in the Golden City, waiting for Ye Tian to identify them and then transport them away!
In the blink of an eye, it’s a new week.
On Monday morning this week, Ye Tian and Betty left New York on a private plane and flew directly back to Beijing.
Evelyn, who had stayed in New York to take care of Betty, returned to Boston to take care of Matthew, who was alone at home and guarding an empty house!
After returning to Beijing, Ye Tian did not stay long.
He only stayed at home for two days, spent time with his family, learned about the construction process of his private museum, and then left Beijing alone.
This time he did not fly to New York, but stopped in Sydney, Australia, and then flew to Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras!
It’s time to transport all the antique cultural relics that have been cleared out of the Golden City of the Mayan Empire to avoid long nights and unexpected situations!
Those company employees and many security team members who have been soaked in the pouring rain for a month or two and are about to turn into savages, it is time to withdraw and take a rest. Otherwise, something might happen. If they are not protected, there will be someone. collapse!
The same goes for those guys on the Columbia University archaeological team. Many of them can't stand it anymore, especially the historians and archaeologists headed by Professor Delgado, who are on the verge of collapse!
The reason why they are still staying in the Golden City now is because they are gritting their teeth and persisting, relying on the obsession in their hearts and the breath in their chests to support them!
As for the Hondurans who are also in the Golden City, the situation is relatively better.
After all, they are more adapted to the local weather, but they are exhausted and can't last much longer!
Just when Ye Tian flew to Honduras again, the brave deep-sea salvage ship that had been berthed in Houston had also left the Port of Houston and headed straight for Honduras with a rented cargo ship!
The purpose of these two ships going to Honduras is, of course, to transport the antique cultural relics from the Golden City of the Mayan Empire and the treasures of the Golden City!
It’s harvest time!
