After "Vitruvian Man", Ye Tian showed another Leonardo da Vinci's work to the crowd. It was a very small portrait. The character in the painting was the youngest Ludovic. daughter.
This oil painting is installed in the wooden box where "Caterina" is located. What is contained in that wooden box are portraits created by Leonardo da Vinci for members of the Sforza family.
Among them are "Caterina", "Maximilian Sforza", "Ludovich Sforza", and portraits of Ludovich's wife and two daughters, except for the second son. Portrait.
Among these priceless portraits, the two most valuable paintings are "Caterina" and "Ludovich Sforza", while the other paintings are of slightly lower value.
Of course, this is based on the historical status of the characters in the painting. From the perspective of artistic value, these oil paintings are similar because they were all created by Leonardo da Vinci at the same period.
The smallest and most inconspicuous oil painting among them is the personal portrait of Ludovic's youngest daughter. This oil painting is about the same size as the "Mona Lisa".
Because of its small size, Ye Tian brought this priceless oil painting up when he left the secret underground palace deep underground.
As for other top-notch oil paintings by Leonardo da Vinci, such as the third "Madonna of the Rocks" and "Caterina", they are still placed in the underground palace.
The only way to transport them to the ground is to remove them from the frame, roll them up and put them into a painting tube, and then bring them to the ground!
Unsurprisingly, the appearance of this portrait of Ludovic's youngest daughter once again set off the meeting room, causing everyone present to exclaim and be excited!
After introducing the oil painting and letting everyone at the scene appreciate it, Ye Tian carefully collected the oil painting and put it into a portable safe.
Next, he showed several sketches and scientific research manuscripts of Leonardo da Vinci, including two sketches of Francesco Sforza's giant sculptures, and the design drawings of the three-wheeler. one of them.
Without exception, these priceless sketches and manuscripts and historical documents written by Leonardo da Vinci shocked everyone present time and time again, and also attracted waves of applause and exclamations.
Especially those Italians who had just arrived here and saw these priceless treasures for the first time, including the Italian Prime Minister, were almost driven crazy by the excitement, and everyone's eyes were blood red.
Especially the Italian Prime Minister and several other senior Italian officials, greed has almost completely swallowed up their sanity!

If it weren’t for a very special situation, countless eyes from around the world are paying attention to this place, and the opponent is too difficult to deal with, the Italian Prime Minister would really like to tear off his face and forcibly intercept this shocking treasure and all top antiques and art!
After showing these top-notch works of art and manuscripts created by Leonardo da Vinci, Ye Tian showed two other oil paintings. They are both from the hands of top art masters in the early and mid-Renaissance, and they are also priceless!
These two top-notch oil paintings are relatively small in size and can be brought to the ground without removing the frame, so they can appear in this conference room!
Next, there is another small bronze sculpture from the Hellenistic period and a bronze sculpture from the ancient Roman period. They are also priceless top antique works of art, all made by masters.
The last thing on display is a document signed by Ludovic to prove the origin of this shocking treasure.
After Ye Tian finished displaying this historical document and put it away, the conference room became quiet. Except for the sound of rapid breathing like an old cow pulling a broken cart, there was no other sound. Any sound.
Not only that, all the Italians present were flushed with excitement and breathing rapidly, which made people worried about their physical condition and whether they would suddenly pass away!
The American ambassador and the two cardinals who had just arrived here on behalf of the Vatican were also present, with shocked expressions on their faces, and greedy eyes flashing from time to time!
After a moment, the Italian Prime Minister first let out a sigh of relief, and then said excitedly:
"Wow! This treasure is so amazing! It's incredible! Just the top-notch artwork and precious manuscripts created by Leonardo da Vinci are enough to make this discovery the greatest discovery in the history of Western art!"
With these words of the Italian Prime Minister, everyone at the scene woke up.
Immediately afterwards, the conference room completely went into a rage. Except for a limited number of people such as Ye Tian and David, the rest of the people held their heads and exclaimed, and each of them acted almost crazy.
Several of the Italian experts and scholars from Rome were even moved to tears and couldn't help themselves!
Ye Tian had already expected the performance of everyone at the scene and was not surprised at all.
He just chuckled softly, sat in his seat, and watched these cunning guys perform, which was a pleasure!
After a few minutes, the scene gradually became quiet, and everyone's mood calmed down a lot.
When the mood calmed down a little, the Italian Prime Minister couldn’t wait to say:
"Steven, although we signed a tripartite agreement in Rome before, which determined the handling of the treasures and antiques found during your trip to Italy.
But no one expected that you would find the Sforza family treasure in Milan, and this treasure is so amazing, it is different from the treasures you found in Rome.
As the situation has changed, the tripartite agreement we signed in Rome must be appropriately adjusted to adapt to the new situation. I hope you can understand this.
Before this, I had a phone call with His Majesty the Pope, and also with the President of the United States, and expressed my thoughts. We must consider the feelings of the Italian people! ”
While saying these words, the Italian Prime Minister kept his eyes on Ye Tian and nodded at the US Ambassador and the two cardinals.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Italian Minister of Culture continued:
"Steven, when you were facing reporters outside just now, you said that you had your own ideas on how to deal with the Sforza family treasures. Can you tell us about it now? We want to know more!"
Ye Tian looked at the Italian Prime Minister and Minister of Culture sitting opposite, then glanced at everyone present, then smiled and said loudly:
"Mr. Prime Minister, and other gentlemen, since we have signed a tripartite agreement, we should abide by it and have the minimum spirit of the contract. We cannot tear up this tripartite agreement just because the situation changes!
Of course, what I said may be a bit harsh. I apologize if it makes you unhappy, but this is my style of conduct and it will not change. I want to ensure that the interests of myself and the company are not infringed! ”
With these words, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became much more tense, and it seemed that even the temperature dropped a few degrees.
The expressions of all the Italians at the scene changed and turned livid. There was anger in everyone's eyes, and their teeth were itching with hatred.
At this time, each of them wished they could rush over from the conference table, kick Ye Tian to the ground, beat him up, and let out the bad energy accumulated in their hearts!
Before these Italians could respond, Ye Tian continued:
“I do have my own ideas on how to deal with the Sforza family treasure, as well as the top-notch antiques, artifacts, artworks, and historical documents hidden in this treasure, but I can tell you about it.
The first method of disposal is that according to the tripartite agreement we signed in Rome, I will handle most of the gold and silver treasures from the Sforza family treasures on the spot in Milan and Italy, and sell them directly or auction them.
The Milan city government, the Italian government, top collectors and major museums in Italy, and even major banks, as well as the U.S. government and the Vatican, can all participate in transactions or auctions. Everyone is welcome to participate.
All these transactions and auctions must be based on the valuation I gave. As for whether you coordinate and communicate privately to avoid excessive competition, I will not interfere. This is the biggest concession I can make!
In this way, you can get your favorite gold and silver treasures at the lowest price, and everyone will be happy with the result. I have no control over whether you will resell those gold and silver treasures for profit in the future, that has nothing to do with me!
For the unsold portion of the gold and silver treasures, I will take them back to New York and select some of them for my own collection. The rest of the gold and silver treasures will be sold over a period of time or appear in major auctions!
I believe everyone is well aware that our company has always been law-abiding. Through this series of transactions, the Italian government and the Milan city government will receive an astronomical amount of tax revenue, and not a penny will be lost!
I will also choose to dispose of all the antique artifacts, artworks, and historical documents from the Sforza family treasures that have a strong religious color in Italy. I do not intend to collect them and take them away!
Participating in the transaction can be the Milan city government, the Italian government, the Vatican, the U.S. government, as well as top collectors and major famous museums in Italy. The trading principle is very simple, that is, the highest bidder wins!
I will collect the remaining antique cultural relics and artworks that have nothing to do with religion, including the top quality and most representative ones, and will display them in my own private museum for everyone to enjoy.
For those of relatively average value, I will take them back to New York to be disposed of slowly, or directly entrust them to major auction houses in Italy. I may also hold a private auction to dispose of those antiques, cultural relics and works of art!
The second treatment method is much simpler. All the gold and silver treasures from the Sforza family treasures are left to the Italian government and the Milan government, and they are treated as tax offsets. That is an astronomically huge amount of wealth!
All antiques, artifacts, artworks, and historical documents from the Sforza family treasures, regardless of value, will be taken away by me for disposal. The Italian government shall not interfere, and more importantly, it shall not be taxed again!
In this way, Italy can get a shocking treasure without paying a penny, but this treasure only contains gold and silver treasures, and I am sure that this treasure must be better than the first treatment method. More taxes! ”
Before he finished speaking, the scene immediately exploded.
"Absolutely impossible, Steven, you are so greedy. You actually want to monopolize all priceless antiques, top-notch artworks, and precious historical documents. Just dream!"
