In the blink of an eye, it’s a new day, and the sun is shining brightly.
Just after eight o'clock in the morning, Ye Tian left the hotel with David and many of his men, preparing to go to the Fasilidas Castle complex to deal with the gold and silver treasures and antique artifacts in Solomon's treasure.
When a group of them walked out of the hotel, they immediately discovered it.
The entrance of this hotel was already surrounded by media reporters who were swarming in.
A large number of Ethiopians gathered outside the cordon not far away, many of whom were devout Orthodox believers wearing white robes.
Seeing Ye Tian and others coming out, the media reporters guarding the door of the hotel immediately became agitated and started asking questions loudly at the top of their voices.
"Good morning, Mr. Steven, I am a reporter from NBC TV. What would you do with the treasures of Solomon discovered in the Noah's Ark church? Should you keep them in Ethiopia or take them to New York?"
"Good morning, Mr. Steven, I am a reporter from the "Jerusalem Post". The golden statues of the Three Kings of Israel are truly priceless treasures. Are you going to collect them yourself or sell them to the Israeli government?"
Ye Tian did not respond to the questions raised by these media reporters.
He just waved to these media reporters, then boarded the bulletproof armored vehicle parked in front of the hotel and walked away.
When the convoy left the hotel, Ye Tian and the others quickly discovered it.
Every street the convoy passed was crowded with Ethiopians.
Among these Ethiopians, there are both local citizens of Gondar and many people who came from other places overnight and were covered in travel.
Without exception, these Ethiopians are staring closely at the convoy.
Their eyes are very complicated, containing worry, anger, and endless envy and jealousy.
Due to several previous attacks and even **** fighting, the Ethiopian government was fully prepared.
The streets are filled with heavily armed Ethiopian military police standing three steps, one post, five steps and one sentinel to maintain order.
It is precisely because of their presence and strong suppression that the numerous Ethiopians who flocked in did not cause trouble.
Of course, countless raised middle fingers and curses are still necessary.
In a short time, the convoy arrived at the gate of the Facilidas Castle complex.
Compared to the hotel entrance, the situation here is even more exaggerated.
More reporters gathered at the gate of the castle complex, twice as many as yesterday.
These guys stayed here all night long, armed with long guns and short cannons, and kept shooting at the gates of Fasilidas Castle and everyone who entered and exited the castle.
Outside the police cordon, Ethiopians swarmed in and completely blocked several nearby streets.
Looking at the situation outside, everyone in the convoy was speechless.
"Steven, this scene is a bit exaggerated. If all of Solomon's treasures are taken away by Israel, the Vatican, and the United States, will the Ethiopians outside the castle complex riot once they get the news?"
David said worriedly.
Ye Tian looked at the situation outside, and then shook his head gently.
“I believe that the Israelis, the Vatican, and those from the United States will not do things so absolutely, and they should leave a certain chance for the Ethiopians.
After all, this is Ethiopia, a sovereign and independent country. If they want to successfully transport the part of Solomon's treasure that was photographed, they have to rely on the Ethiopian government.
Especially from the Israeli side, the cave located deep underground in the Noah's Ark Church will become one of the holy places in the hearts of all Jews in the future, and it is impossible for them to do everything possible.
Ethiopia’s harvest is actually not small. This underground cave alone can continue to bring them a lot of profits. The antiques and cultural relics in the cave are also valuable! ”
Hearing this, David couldn't help but nodded and relaxed a little.
As he spoke, the motorcade had stopped at the gate of the castle complex.
Everyone immediately got out of the car and walked towards the castle complex together.
As soon as Ye Tian and the others appeared, the media reporters at the gate of the castle complex started to shout questions one after another, as if they were on fire.
"Good morning, Steven, it is said that you will hold a small private auction at the Noah's Ark Church to auction this part of Solomon's treasure. Can we go in and cover the auction?"
"Good morning, Steven, I am a reporter from the New York Times. How much do you value the gold statue of the Three Kings of Israel? Can you tell everyone? Everyone is interested!"
As before, Ye Tian did not respond to questions from these media reporters.
He just waved at these guys and walked straight into the Facilidas Castle complex.
In the castle complex, Joshua and Bishop Kent, as well as the Ethiopian Minister of Culture and Presidential Representative, as well as the US Ambassador to Ethiopia and others, are waiting for the arrival of Ye Tian and others.
Seeing them walking into the castle complex, these people immediately came up to them.
Except for the Ethiopian whose face was full of pain, everyone else was full of expectations and extremely excited.
After everyone met, they naturally exchanged polite greetings.
Next, everyone walked towards Noah’s Ark Church while laughing and chatting.
After a while, everyone arrived at the door of Noah's Ark Church.
At this time, more than a hundred white chairs were placed on the lawn in front of Noah's Ark Church.
These chairs are arranged in a fan, facing the entrance of Noah's Ark Church.
On the corridor at the entrance of the church, there is an auction table.
On the left and right sides of the auction table, there is a sturdy long table.
Ye Tian's small private auction will be held here soon.
When the auction officially begins, he will stand on the auction stage and auction off the newly discovered part of Solomon's treasure.
The long tables on both sides of the auction table are used to display the gold and silver treasures and antique artifacts in the treasure.
At this time, there are still dozens of minutes before this small private auction officially begins.
Except for Joshua and Bishop Kent, as well as the Ethiopian Minister of Culture, the other guests who are eligible to participate in this private auction have not yet been allowed to enter the open-air auction venue.
But they have all arrived at the Facilidas Castle complex, and are now standing in the distance, looking over here.
Without exception, every one of them was wearing a suit and tie, and they were very excited.
At the auction venue, only the employees and security personnel of the Brave Exploration Company were busy, and no one else was allowed to enter the venue for the time being.
When he arrived here, Ye Tian first raised his hand to say hello to the familiar old friends around him, and then began to check.
This auction venue is definitely not luxurious. There are almost no modern electronic display devices to assist, and there are no telephone bidding or online bidding.
However, because it is held in the ancient and magnificent Facilidas Castle complex and a world-famous cultural heritage, it has a unique flavor.
As for the level of this small private auction, it is definitely the best in the world, and it is completely unique.
Let me ask, before this, which top auction could auction part of Solomon's treasure?
Participating in this small private auction were not only the governments of the four countries, but also the top museums and collectors in the four countries, as well as the super rich, etc.
Ye Tian roughly inspected the venue, then entered the church interior and inspected the gold and silver treasures, antique cultural relics and works of art that were about to be auctioned.
Having been so busy, half an hour passed quickly.
The bidders participating in this small private auction have entered the open-air auction venue and received their respective bidding numbers.
They sat on the white chairs on the grass at the entrance of the church, laughing and chatting while staring at the auction table at the entrance of the church!
Although they seemed to be very relaxed, everyone's eyes were full of excitement, and each of them was secretly gearing up to prepare for a good fight at the end and strive to return home with a full reward.
Soon, the time came to nine o'clock in the morning.
Ye Tian, who disappeared for a while, walked out of Noah's Ark Church.
Coming out with him were David and Joshua, as well as the Bishop of Kent and the Ethiopian Minister of Culture.
When he arrived at the door of the church, Ye Tian went straight to the auction platform, while the others stood on the corridor at the door of the church.
Everyone knows that this small private auction, which is bound to shock the world, is about to begin.
Ye Tian, who was standing behind the auction table, quickly scanned the audience, then smiled and said loudly:
"Good morning, gentlemen, I am very happy to be here with you, and I am very grateful to you all for coming to participate in this small private auction of mine. I hope everyone will get what they want and come back with a full load!
The gold, silver, treasures and antique relics auctioned in today's small private auction all come from this part of Solomon's treasure hidden deep underground in the Noah's Ark church. Many of the items are priceless.
Of course, the gold and silver treasures and antique relics I am going to auction today are not all of Solomon’s treasure. I plan to collect some of the non-religious antiques in the treasure myself.
Many people here are very familiar with me. They have participated in my small private auctions before, so they should know that every item I take out is genuine and each item has an auction reserve price.
During the auction, if the final bid of a lot is lower than the auction reserve price, it will be rejected. Therefore, if you see a lot you like, be sure to raise your sign to avoid missing out! ”
Hearing this, all the old friends present who were familiar with Ye Tian rolled their eyes angrily.
"This **** is still as greedy and cunning as before, no one can take advantage of him!"
“It’s the **** auction reserve price again. Don’t even think about it, everyone will be slaughtered by this **** Steven today!”
While everyone was talking about it, Ye Tian continued to perform.
Next, he briefly introduced the process of discovering this part of Solomon's Treasure, as well as the antiques, cultural relics, gold and silver treasures contained in this Solomon's Treasure.
During the period, Bishop Joshua and Kent, as well as the Ethiopian Minister of Culture, also stepped forward to speak.
They spoke highly of this joint exploration operation and affirmed the huge sensation caused by the discovery of this part of Solomon's treasure!
These are all official clichés, with little nutrition and indispensable!
After finishing speaking, Joshua and the others walked down the steps and sat on a few seats in the first row.
Also sitting in the first row were the U.S. Ambassador to Ethiopia and the Special Envoy of the Ethiopian President.
As representatives of the Israeli government and the Vatican government, Joshua and Bishop Kent were also assigned two bidding numbers and prepared to participate in the auction.
Of course, they were just making a gesture.
Most of the time, there are two groups of professionals who actually participate in the auction on behalf of the Israeli government and the Vatican government.
When Joshua and the others sat down in the audience, Ye Tian immediately motioned to his employees to take out the first lot, display it, and then auction it to the public.
In just a moment, Derek and the others walked out of the church carrying a black portable safe.
They placed the safe on the long table to the left of the auction table and then stepped aside.
Next, lawyers from three parties, including David, came forward to check the seal.
After confirming that the seals were intact, they opened the three seals.
After they retreated, Ye Tiancai stepped forward, entered the password, and opened the black portable safe.
Following his movements, a dazzling golden statue immediately appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
That was the first golden statue of King Saul to be cleared and transferred to the ground.
The moment this golden statue of the Three Kings of Israel appeared, the scene exploded.
The many bidders sitting in the audience jumped up from their seats as if they were electrocuted, looking at this priceless treasure with excitement!
The eyes of these guys are extremely hot, almost burning.
The eyes of many of them turned red instantly, which looked quite scary.
"Oh my God! This is a golden statue of King Saul. He is the first king in the history of Israel. His status is very special and extremely important. There is no doubt that this is a priceless treasure!"
"Wow! The first item to be auctioned is the golden statue of King Saul. This guy Steven's handiwork is still so amazing, he can shock the audience as soon as he makes it!"
While many bidders were talking about it, Ye Tian's clear voice came out again.
“Gentlemen, since everyone has recognized this golden statue, there is no need for me to introduce it. I can tell you with great certainty that this golden statue of King Saul came from Solomon’s Temple.
Next, we will enter the auction. The starting price I set for this golden statue of King Saul is US$600 million. I hope everyone will bid enthusiastically. US$600 million, which gentleman should bid?..."
Before the words were spoken, the scene was already boiling again.
"Oh my god! The starting price is $600 million. This **** Steven is so crazy and extremely greedy!"
"Although the golden statue of King Saul is a priceless treasure, is it too high to cost $600 million?",
There was a lot of discussion at the scene, one after another.
Everyone was shocked by Ye Tian's huge appetite!
Especially the Ethiopians, who had never seen such a battle before, they were all dumbfounded.
Just when they thought that absolutely no one would take advantage of them and raise their cards to pay the price.
Joshua, who was sitting in the first row, raised his bidding number.
"$600 million, Steven"
As Joshua raised his sign to answer the price, exclamations erupted from the scene again.
Everyone looked at Joshua, but no one raised a sign to compete with him.
Everyone present knew that the Israeli government was determined to obtain the golden statues of the Three Kings of Israel and would never let them fall by the wayside.
If someone ends up competing with Joshua for this golden statue of King Saul, he is likely to offend the Israeli government and even all the Jews.
Of course no one is willing to do such a thing, and it is definitely not worth the gain.
Ye Tian had already anticipated this situation.
He did not delay and said loudly:
"Joshua's bid was US$600 million. The current price is US$620 million. Is there any gentleman who has bid? I hope everyone will not miss this opportunity and bid enthusiastically.
The first, second, and third times were $620 million. OK, $600 million was sold. The winning bidder was Joshua. This golden statue of King Saul belongs to Israel! ”
With that said, Ye Tian banged the auction gavel.
"Bang!"
With a crisp sound, the golden statue of King Saul was successfully auctioned!
