Search for Treasure Worldwide Chapter 236: Those who beat the autumn wind
www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters of treasure hunting around the world!
The preview continues, and the emotions of the visitors gradually calm down.
Few people at the scene exclaimed in surprise anymore. Even if it was a heartfelt compliment, everyone would pay attention to controlling the volume so as not to disturb others.
People may be quietly admiring the miracles of nature, feeling the shock of the uncanny workmanship, and experiencing the most direct temptation of wealth!
Or appreciate the pinnacle of post-Impressionist art, and feel the unparalleled artistic charm brought by the master of art between the changes in color.
Betty and the other beauties went to visit the booth, while Ye Tian and David continued to chat.
Not long after, several people from Morgan Mining’s investment team came over.
There were other people around them, including several Wall Street tycoons, whom Ye Tian knew, but they did not know Ye Tian.
"Steven, congratulations on digging for treasure again, you lucky guy!"
Charlie from the Morgan team was very enthusiastic and came up to give Ye Tian a fist bump.
"Charlie, I also want to congratulate you. I heard that you are planning to sell the Gonzales Gold Mine for twice the purchase price. You are too shady! Or I am too merciful!"
Ye Tian said jokingly, with a slightly sour taste!
These guys are worthy of being called Wall Street vampires, they are so cruel! Changing hands means doubling the profit, just like robbing money!
"Hahaha, such an excellent gold mine, of course we have to make a lot of money and sell it immediately! We won't be asked to go gold mining in that **** place in Alaska, right?"
Charlie laughed proudly, and the rest of his team were also smiling.
“That’s right! Let’s leave things like gold mining to professionals!”
Ye Tian smiled and agreed, anyway, my brother has already made the biggest profit. The life and death of the receiver is none of my business!
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let me introduce you to some friends. This is..."
"Charlie, no introduction is needed. I used to be on Wall Street. How could I not know these people?"
Ye Tian interrupted Charlie's introduction with a smile and greeted several Wall Street bosses.
"Mr. Clement and Mr. Perez of the COMEX Division of the New York Metal Exchange, Mr. Johnson of the Chicago Gold Exchange,..."
"Hi, Steven, I'm Clement, nice to meet you, the most amazing guy in New York, the kid who keeps creating miracles!"
Clement shook hands with Ye Tian with a smile and kept looking at him.
This is the latest legend born in New York. He is not only famous in the market, but also familiar and well-known on Wall Street!
In particular, he has made huge fortunes one after another, living in the best apartment in New York and driving the most expensive sports car, which makes everyone extremely envious, including the gold-collar workers on Wall Street.
Even a super rich man like Clement might not be so cool.
Since we bumped into it today, I naturally had to take a closer look.
Clement is not the only one with this kind of curiosity!
The other Wall Street bosses were also secretly observing, intending to see what was so magical about Ye Tian.
But unfortunately, apart from seeing Ye Tian's exquisite appearance and extraordinary confidence, they didn't find anything special.
There are many people like this on Wall Street, they look like careerists who are the boss of the world, they are specimens of Wall Street elites!
Since this kid has been on Wall Street before, it is not surprising that he behaves like this.
But what is so magical about him? Why do you create miracles one after another? Questions still linger in everyone's mind, and no one has the answer!
Soon, everyone was talking about the gold nugget on the booth.
"Steven, we are very interested in this nugget of gold. We are going to take a photo of it and put it on the trading floor. I believe it will double the motivation of all traders!"
Clement pointed at the nugget on the big screen and said with an expression determined to win.
Hearing this, Johnson's eyes immediately lit up at the Chicago Gold Exchange, and he was obviously tempted.
It is a good idea to use gold nuggets to stimulate traders. It is more direct and more shocking than anything else, and it is also the most economical incentive method.
Nugget gold will not depreciate or depreciate. It is valuable at any time and can be liquidated at any time.
Thinking of this, Johnson became more determined to win this nugget of gold.
As for the New York Metal Exchange and Clement, let them eat their shit, Chicagoans are not short of money!
"Wow! This is a great idea. Under the stimulation of this nugget of gold, your traders will probably go crazy!"
Ye Tian exclaimed in cooperation and gave Clement's idea a thumbs up.
The more super predators like you, the better, and the more intense the competition, the better. It’s best to beat you to the death and break your head, so that you guys can earn more dollars!
……
Clement and the others went to appreciate famous paintings, and Ye Tianze took Betty, who had returned, to the Newmont Gold Company people. They were also old acquaintances and needed to say hello.
But before they took a few steps, they were stopped by the ugly-looking Dawson Mayor Rick, who was accompanied by several Canadians with equally stinky faces.
"Stephen, please give me a moment, we want to talk about the nugget"
Ye Tian was a little wary and nodded with a smile.
"Good morning, Rick, and welcome to New York. How are you doing lately?"
Hearing this greeting, Rick was so angry that he almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
How are you doing? What a fart! I'm scolded so badly by the citizens of Dawson every day that I don't even dare to go home. Is that okay? This is all caused by you bastard!
Although he was filled with hatred, Rick had to force out a smile that was uglier than crying and told him the purpose of his trip.
"Steven, this nugget of gold is indeed very important to us. Whether it is Dawson or Canada, we want to repurchase this nugget of gold and bring it back to Dawson.
We come here with sincerity and are prepared to use 60 million US dollars to repurchase this nugget of gold. As long as you withdraw the auction, we can trade it immediately,
The Canadian Ministry of Mines will still provide the money, and it will be paid in one lump sum. You don’t have to worry about it. How about that? This condition is very favorable, consider it! "
Ye Tian answered very simply, instantly shattering the Canadian's illusions.
"Sorry! Rick! The terms you offered are indeed very generous and very tempting, but I still plan to send this gold nugget to the New York autumn auction.
You can participate in the auction and compete with others. Maybe you will be the winner, and you can take this gold nugget back to Canada! "
Rick and the others were instantly furious, almost bursting with rage.
Everyone understands that this nugget of gold has no chance with Dawson. How can he compete with others at the New York Autumn Auction?
Competitors are either super gold companies or billionaires. Even if Dawson is sold, they still can't compete with these super predators!
In desperation, Rick could no longer suppress his anger and began to curse in a low voice.
"Steven, you complete bastard, robber! This nugget of gold belongs to Dawson!"
Faced with the attack, Ye Tian immediately launched a fierce counterattack.
"Rick! You are the mayor of Dawson. You should know the law. The ownership of this nugget belongs to me. There is no doubt that it just came from Dawson. I will never deny this.
I am a professional treasure hunter and a businessman. Maximizing profits is my golden rule and I will never violate it. Get ready to participate in the auction. Goodbye! "
After he finished speaking, he pulled Betty around the Canadians and continued to move forward.
Behind them, there was already a sound of angry curses. These Canadians could only curse, there was nothing they could do against him!
"Dear, 60 million is already a lot, why not sell it to them? These people represent Canada and have a lot of energy. Will rejecting them affect your actions in Canada!?"
Betty whispered, she was a little worried and a little stunned by the $60 million.
"Don't worry! That won't happen. As long as I don't break the law, no one can do anything to me. Even if the Canadian government wants to frame me, it won't be easy.
USD 60 million is not the highest price. Since they can offer this price to make me withdraw from the auction, then this piece of nugget gold will definitely fetch a higher price, far more than USD 60 million!
I was worrying about setting a reserve price, but unexpectedly they gave me inspiration. I decided to set the reserve price of this nugget at US$60 million!
If no one bids more than this amount at the auction, it would be a good idea to let the Canadians take it back. The Canadians might even thank me! "
Ye Tian said in a relaxed manner, with a smirk on his lips.
"Hahaha, you are so bad! If Canadians knew about this reserve price, they would hate you to death!"
Betty laughed softly and punched Ye Tian's arm twice.
"Hahaha, even if they don't know, they already hate me to death, but what can they do? Can they still bite me?"
Ye Tian laughed in a low voice, extremely proud!
Seeing his appearance, the Canadians behind him were so angry that their eyes almost bled!
……
"Stephen, let me introduce, this is Lewis, the director of impressionist oil painting at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and this is Allen, the director of impressionist oil painting at the Museum of Modern Art"
Simon came over with two white men in their fifties and introduced them to Ye Tian.
"Good morning, gentlemen, I'm Steven, nice to meet you!"
Ye Tian greeted the two of them politely, and then introduced Betty, which was very decent.
After a few pleasantries, Lewis immediately got to the topic.
"Steven, can these two oil paintings by Paul Cezanne be sold? We really want to put them in the museum and display them to the public, so that people can appreciate the artistic charm of Paul Cézanne at any time!"
After saying that, he looked at Ye Tian expectantly, expecting to get a positive answer.
He has already visited two oil paintings and made a preliminary visual appraisal through high-definition bulletproof glass. He is basically certain that they are genuine.
And he also trusts Sotheby's appraisal very much. It is definitely the top level in the industry and there is no need to doubt it.
That's why he came to discuss this deal.
Ye Tian was not surprised at all by his request.
As long as the museum personnel who appear here today, I am afraid they all have this purpose, and they are not the only ones from the Metropolitan Museum.
But no matter which museum you are in, if you want your buddy’s oil paintings, you have to use real money to speak for yourself, and nothing else will work!
After a short pause, he replied with a smile.
"You can participate in the New York Autumn Auction, and then defeat all competitors and bring these two oil paintings back to the Metropolitan Museum. What a perfect result!"
Slippery! If the Metropolitan can easily defeat those billionaires and famous collectors, why would they come to you? Wouldn’t it be better if we went directly to the auction?
After secretly complaining a few words, Lewis continued.
"Steven, you may not understand what I mean. Our museum has a limited budget for purchasing art and cannot spend much money to compete with those billionaires.
So we hope you can withdraw the auction and transfer these two art treasures to the Metropolitan Museum of Art at a relatively low price. Do you think this is okay? "
"Sorry! Mr. Lewis, I don't plan to cancel the auction. If the Met is really interested in these two oil paintings, then please participate in the New York autumn auction!"
Ye Tian shook his head and rejected the other party without leaving any room.
Now that we have reached this point, we will definitely not be able to continue.
After a few perfunctory words, Lewis left with a very ugly look on his face.
Allen from the Museum of Modern Art also came with this idea. When he saw Lewis being pushed back, he didn't mention it at all and quickly left.
He understands very well that mentioning it is in vain!
This **** Steven loves money so much that he won’t let go of a dollar.
Subsequently, personnel from several museums came.
They all want to get these two oil paintings, and they all want Ye Tian to carry forward his style and transfer them to them at a low price.
What's more, there are two museums that plan to encourage Ye Tian to donate free of charge, and the reward they give is only free admission for life.
Regarding these, Ye Tianquan pouted back, leaving no room for error, saying bluntly that there was no other possibility for them to bid at the auction!
Next, Ye Tian stayed in the exhibition hall, chatting and communicating with many well-known collectors, billionaires, and appraisal experts, quickly expanding his network of contacts.
These are potential customers. As a professional treasure hunter, naturally, I cannot let go of this opportunity to get acquainted.
The time soon reached noon.
The preview went very smoothly without any problems, which made Ye Tian feel relieved.
At twelve o'clock, he left Sotheby's with Betty and returned to his apartment.
After that, he only needs to come over once again at the end of the preview, take the three lots off the platform and return them to the lot warehouse, and the preview will be completed perfectly!
