Search for Treasure Worldwide Chapter 1733: The Vatican at night
www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters of treasure hunting around the world!
The Vatican is located on the Vatican Heights in the northwest corner of Rome. Ye Tian and his team came from the north, and Leonardo and the others deliberately chose some relatively quiet streets.
So along the way, Ye Tian and the others did not see a few famous ancient buildings and tourist attractions. Instead, they witnessed the dilapidated and dirty side of Rome.
Like many big cities in the West, apart from the famous tourist attractions and the bright main streets, the eternal city of Rome also has an unsightly dark side.
Under the cover of night, these secluded and dilapidated streets are littered with garbage and sewage flows. The air is filled with a strong smell of urine and sewage, which is disgusting!
On the one hand, this is because Rome is too old, has a large population, and is full of ruins. Although the city's plumbing facilities and garbage disposal system are already aging and overwhelmed, they are difficult to change.
Another reason is related to the bad habit of Italian men urinating everywhere. These secluded and run-down streets are often the ideal place for some Italian men to solve their internal problems.
Then there’s the issue of pets peeing and defecating. Dog **** is everywhere in almost every street in Rome.
On this point alone, the great Rome and the romantic city of Paris are definitely comparable, and they can definitely compete to see which city is the real 'shit city'
Of course, the main reason for these problems is that Italians are just too lazy!
Their ancestors left so much wealth to the Romans that they were almost too much to count!
Even if the Romans lay around doing nothing all day, tourists flocking from all over the world could bring them huge income, support them, and let them eat and wait to die!
If heroes like Caesar the Great knew that their descendants were so lazy, so unsatisfactory, and so trashing the great Rome, they would probably be so angry that they would jump out of their graves!
In addition to environmental problems, gang members roaming in small and large groups can be seen everywhere on these streets. They are all unruly and act like they are the boss and others.
As for homeless people and drug addicts huddled on the roadside and in corners, scantily clad women standing on the roadside soliciting customers can be seen everywhere, but there are not many normal-looking pedestrians.
The shops opened on these streets have closed their rolling shutters or anti-theft iron doors early, and they are completely dark. Even the street lights on the streets are not very good.
Of course, there are many ancient buildings built in different historical periods on both sides of these streets, which are somewhat worth seeing, but because it was getting late, they couldn't see clearly.
As the motorcade approached the Vatican Heights little by little, the scenery outside the car window began to gradually get better, and the air did not seem so smelly.
At the same time, people on these streets also saw this bullet-riddled motorcade, as well as the Vatican motorcade leading in front, and the large group of police cars following behind.
Soon, the news that Ye Tian and the others had entered Rome and were heading to the Vatican spread like the wind throughout Rome and reached countless people.
Until then, no one was sure.
As expected, just like the legend, that **** Steven came to Italy at the invitation of the Vatican. He did not come specifically to travel and enjoy Italy’s beautiful scenery and cultural landscape.
As for why the Vatican invited that **** Steven and paid so much attention to it, people don’t know the truth and can only let their imagination run free to speculate.
Many of them have guessed the possibility of jointly exploring the treasure, but they are not sure, let alone what the mysterious treasure is.
At nearly nine o'clock in the evening, Ye Tian and his convoy finally arrived at the Vatican Heights and stopped at the entrance of St. Peter's Square.
This is the dividing line between Italy and the Vatican. It is surrounded by a guardrail. When you cross the guardrail and enter St. Peter's Square, you enter the Vatican. Beyond the guardrail is the territory of Italy.
When the motorcade stopped, Ye Tian and Betty also looked out the window.
What caught their eyes was the magnificent St. Peter's Square and the solemn St. Peter's Basilica at the other end of the square, the most important and largest Catholic church in the world.
It's just that it's night now, and the square has been cleared. There are no tourists. There are only some patrolling police and Swiss Guard members. It seems very empty and a bit lonely.
Due to the night, St. Peter's Basilica under the lights also looks gloomy from a distance. Tall historical buildings at night usually give people this feeling.
Just after admiring the scenery outside the window for a while, Cole's voice came from the headphones.
"Stephen, as you expected, Giovanni and a deputy minister of the Italian Ministry of Culture, as well as the leader of the Rome special police, asked to talk to you, so I asked the convoy to stop here.
Leonardo and Cardinal Kent have been notified, and Anderson has also been notified. They have all got out of the car and are walking towards you. The guys have also completed their defense! "
"Okay, Cole, I have already expected this situation. It is expected. I also want to meet these Italian friends!"
Ye Tian said with a smile, opened the car door, got out of the car and stood beside the car alone.
As soon as he got off the bus and made his decision, Anderson and a Milan lawyer, as well as Leonardo and Cardinal Kent, had already walked over and came to the side of the bulletproof SUV.
A little further behind, old friend Giovanni and several Italians came over quickly, and everyone looked solemn.
After Anderson and the others arrived at the car, they chatted quietly with Ye Tian, and then everyone looked at the Italian guys who were walking over.
In the blink of an eye, Giovanni and the others were approaching.
After everyone introduced each other and said a few polite words, we immediately got to the point.
"Steven, our Italian Ministry of Culture is very clear about the purpose of your coming to the Vatican. We are happy to see your joint exploration of the treasures come to fruition and will not stop it.
However, outside the scope of the Vatican, you cannot launch exploration of treasures at will. Any form of exploration must be approved by our Ministry of Culture.
Especially the treasures buried underground in Rome, it is best not to touch them without special permission, let alone dig them privately and take the treasures as your own"
The Italian Deputy Minister of Culture who led the team said, his words and expression were very serious, but there was a bit of worry in his eyes.
The Deputy Minister of Culture knew very well who the guy with the bright smile in front of him was and what his methods were.
This is a notorious treasure robber, and God knows how many treasures of astonishing value have been stolen!
If you don't warn this guy and be more vigilant, this **** will definitely sack Rome with his usual behavior, just like he did in Paris.
After more than 2,800 years of history, is it easy for Rome to accumulate some treasures? Those are all the wealth that belongs to Italy and Rome. We must not let this **** in front of us loot it like crazy!
Ye Tian looked at the Vice Minister of Culture, then said with a smile:
"Don't worry, Mr. Minister, our Brave and Fearless Exploration Company has always abided by the law and never engaged in illegal business, let alone secretly discover any treasures. We don't bother to do that kind of thing.
If I am lucky enough to discover any amazing treasure in Rome, I will definitely obtain an exploration permit through legal means and obtain the wealth in the treasure reasonably and legally. Please rest assured.
In addition to the treasures buried underground, I am also very interested in the antique art market in Rome. This is an open market. I doubt the Italian Ministry of Culture will stop me from shopping, right? "
Hearing this, the expressions of the Italian guys across the street changed. A chill shot up from their backs and went straight from their heels to their foreheads.
It’s over! It seems that the Roman antique art market cannot escape the tragic fate of being looted crazily. This **** Steven is so abominable, he is simply an extremely greedy devil!
While cursing secretly, these Italians felt a deep sense of helplessness and did not know how to deal with this extremely difficult problem.
Is it possible that all the antique markets, all the antique shops and galleries in Rome should be closed down to avoid being looted by Steven, a greedy bastard? That’s impossible!
After a moment of silence, the deputy minister continued:
"Stephen, I hope you will, as you said, abide by the law during your stay in Rome, do not cause trouble, and do not explore or dig for treasures without permission. The Antiquities Gendarmerie will be watching your every move.
If you discover any treasure, obtain an exploration permit by legal means, and obtain the wealth in the corresponding treasure by legal means, we will also recognize it. Italy is a country governed by the rule of law.
As you said, the antique art market in Rome is an open market that can be bought and sold freely. We have no right to stop you from shopping. We hope you will gain something and have a pleasant shopping experience."
"I believe it will, Mr. Minister, and I am looking forward to my trip to Rome in the next few days"
Ye Tian said with a smile, his expression was very relaxed, but several Italians felt frightened.
Immediately afterwards, Giovanni interjected:
"Steven, let's talk about "Lisa Gradini". What's going on with Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece? Is it damaged after the battle during the day?
How are you going to preserve that priceless treasure in the next few days? When you were in Milan this morning, you said you intended to auction it in Rome. When will the auction start? ”
Ye Tian looked at this old friend, then said with a smile:
"Don't worry, Giovanni, "Lisa Gradini" arrived in Rome this afternoon long before we arrived in Rome, and is currently being kept in a very safe place, undamaged.
As for the private auction, I haven’t decided when it will be held, but please rest assured that once the auction time is determined, I will notify you and others..."
Before he finished speaking, the scene was completely blown up.
"What? "Lisa Gradini" was secretly transported to Rome in the afternoon? How is it possible? Doesn't this mean that your motorcade is just a cover, and the crazy and **** fight during the day can be completely avoided!"
"Yes! Those gangsters who tried to rob "Lisa Gradini" on the way died so unjustly and have no value!"
Amidst the exclamations, almost everyone at the scene stared at Ye Tian in stunned silence, with eyes full of disbelief and fear!
This **** Steven is so ruthless and insidious. He has tricked so many people to death and caused such a huge sensation. He is simply a devil from hell!
