Chapter 808: Overlord Clause

After the weapons and ammunition were inspected, they were taken away by the airport border inspection and armed special police, and sealed up.

As Ye Tian's lawyer, Chen Fei followed, supervised the airport border inspection, and took back the "Firearms and Ammunition Carriage Permit."

Afterwards, everyone entered the terminal building with their luggage and a few boxes full of antique art and began to clear the security check.

Because of those valuable Chinese antique works of art, Ye Tian and the others once again enjoyed special treatment.

They were taken into a brightly lit conference room by border inspectors, then opened all the boxes and began to check one by one.

The people in charge of the inspection are not only the airport border inspectors, but also a group of people from the Palace Museum. All of them are very excited, and their eyes are full of expectation.

The goal of these guys is not the suitcases, are the boxes with antique art.

Before the boxes were opened, the eyes of these guys were fixed on the boxes, their eyes were extremely hot, like looking at a lover in love, there was nothing else in their eyes!

After several boxes were opened one after another, the antique artworks inside were put on the conference table one by one. When they were presented before their eyes, the conference room immediately heard a hissing inhalation sound, accompanied by a few violent coughs!

Obviously, even the well-informed cultural museum personnel of the Forbidden City were shocked by the antique artworks in front of them, so that some of them became blushed from coughing.

Immediately afterwards, there was a sudden excitement of cheers from this conference room, the voice was very loud, and the people around him jumped.

The security check began later, but the airport border check can only check everyone's suitcases, and they are not even qualified to approach those antique works of art.

The group of cultural and museum personnel from the Forbidden City are like beasts that protect food, their eyes are red, and they resolutely refuse anyone to approach the antique artworks for fear that the treasures will be destroyed.

Only Ye Tian, ​​who is a top antique art appraisal expert, is qualified to step forward, introduce the origins of those treasures, and give explanations. Others can only stare at them.

"This is a Southern Song Hutian kiln blue-white glazed jade pot spring bottle. It has a regular shape, shiny color, simple and elegant, pure and delicate, and the appearance is perfect. It is a rare art treasure.

In 2004, this jade pot spring bottle was stolen in the British Museum, and since then it has completely disappeared. By coincidence, some time ago in Boston, the United States, I put this jade pot spring bottle into my bag"

"This ink landscape is from Mi Fu, a famous calligraphy master in the Northern Song Dynasty, and has a certain status in the history of Chinese calligraphy and painting. This is one of Mi Fu's representative paintings, "Dongting Landscape".

In the past 100 years, this top-level artwork has been kept in the Czartoryski Museum, Poland. I got this top-level famous painting through exchange!"

...

Ye Tian's explanation and introduction sounded constantly, very professional and meticulous.

In every word of his, there is a deep sense of joy and a bit of pride! Everyone can hear it!

Accompanied by the explanation, the exclamation of exclamation in the conference room continued one after another without interruption.

Without exception, all the exclamations came from the cultural organization and museum personnel of the Palace Museum.

It took more than an hour before this special customs clearance and security check ended.

This is the result of Ye Tian worrying about his parents waiting outside and urging him, otherwise the staff of the Palace Museum and cultural organization can enjoy the antique artworks for a lifetime!

After the security check, everyone immediately took action and put the valuable antique artworks back into the boxes, ready to be transported out of here.

The leading expert of the Cultural Museum of the Palace Museum held Ye Tian's hand tightly and said excitedly:

"Ye Tian! I am really eye-opening today! The antique works of art you brought back are all exquisite works that have been lost overseas for a long time. They are all valuable, and many of them can be called national treasures!

You did such a beautiful job! In terms of popular online language, I must give you a compliment! I'm sure that the return of this batch of top antique artworks will definitely cause a huge sensation!"

"Your eyesight is awesome! Mr. Shan, you deserve to be a top antique art appraisal expert. You are right. Every antique art here is a rare boutique. It is no exaggeration to say that it is a national treasure!

They cause a sensation in the field of antique art collection, it is inevitable, no matter in any country, any place, so many top antique works of art appear at the same time, it will inevitably cause a sensation!"

Ye Tian held up the old man in front of him, and then said triumphantly, also very confident.

"It is fortunate for to be able to see these top Chinese antique works of art in China, to get in touch with them so close, and to verify their authenticity personally! I didn't even dare to think about it before.

In the past, if we wanted to see these antique artworks, we had to fly around the world and go to other people's museums to see them. If they didn't show them, we wouldn't even be qualified to see them.

It's okay now, your kid brought all these babies back. It can be regarded as a great feast for my eyes and a good addiction. It is a pity that the time of appreciation is too short and not enough!"

"Don't feel sorry, Mr. Shan, I believe you will still have a chance to appreciate it in the future! This time it really won't work. My parents are still waiting outside. If we don't go out, they should be anxious!"

"That's right. You just came back from abroad. Your parents definitely want to see you as soon as possible. Reunion with your family is the most important thing. We can talk about the rest of the matter later.

One last question, how do you plan to dispose of these top antique works of art? Should we bring them back to the United States, or should you keep them in China?

If possible, I hope you keep all these antique works of art in the country. These are treasures left by our ancestors. If they continue to live overseas, it would be a shame!"

After speaking, Mr. Shan stared at Ye Tian, ​​his eyes burning, his eyes full of expectation, looking forward to hearing the most beautiful answer.

"Yes! Can you always keep looking at me like that? I am a little flustered, as if I have done something wrong. I just returned to China! I have never had any contact with that girl in China!"

Ye Tian said jokingly, making amused with the old man in front of him.

"Okay! Don't be poor, I don't have a granddaughter to make your kid worry about, so hurry up and talk about how you plan to dispose of these national treasures of antique art!"

Mr. Shan said badly, with a dumbfounding expression.

Ye Tian stopped joking, and immediately cleared up his expressions and said with a smile:

"As you wish, these top Chinese antique works of art will stay in China and will not be brought to the United States anymore. This is the main reason why I brought them back to China.

This is the treasure left by our ancestors, and the place that should be the most is here. Only we Chinese can appreciate these antique works of art and appreciate the beauty of them.

As for foreign devil foreigners, they don't know how to appreciate these treasures and how to appreciate Chinese traditional culture! Leaving these treasures with them is purely a waste of barley chewing!"

"Hahaha, you kid really hurts, isn't this going to overturn a boat! But to be honest, I still love to hear these words, and it sounds really fun!

As far as I know, some foreign devil foreigners are very knowledgeable in the study of Chinese antique art! It can even be called everyone, such as An Siyuan who is in New York like you!"

Mr. Shan laughed and said, very happy.

In the laughter, the worries in his eyes have completely dissipated, and the furrows and folds on his face have also been completely opened, and the whole person is radiant, suddenly younger than a dozen or twenty years old!

"An Siyuan is an example after all. It is only a very small number of people. The vast majority of foreigners know very little about China, do not understand Chinese antique art at all, let alone appreciate it!

Let's not talk about this, let's talk about how to dispose of these Chinese antique works of art. When I am sure to bring these top antique works of art back to China, I will figure out how to dispose of them."

"Tell me, what your plans, I'm very curious!"

"During the Spring Festival, I will hold a small private auction in Beijing. At the auction, I will sell all these top antique artworks and keep them all in China in this way.

All buyers participating in the auction will face strict qualifications. First of all, they must be Chinese, and they must be Chinese in mainland China, museums, collectors or entrepreneurs.

Secondly, any buyer who wants to participate in the auction must sign a document in advance, promising not to resell the auctioned antique artworks to foreigners, let alone taking them out of the country.

Even if it is sent to a foreign auction house for auction, it will not work. Even if it is auctioned in China, the next owner must abide by this rule, otherwise I have the right to recover the price at a discount.

Only by meeting and approving these two conditions can the buyer be eligible to bid and participate in my private auction.

"Oh! This is an Overlord Clause! This trick is really ruthless! It is estimated that it will stop many speculators. I agree with you!"

Mr. Shan exclaimed, then nodded appreciatively.

"Yes! The target customers of this private auction are not speculators, but collectors and museums who really like collecting, so that these treasures will not be lost overseas again.

Before I returned to China, I had contacted Ma Ye and the others. They also supported my approach and agreed to help me organize this private auction and contact capable collectors and entrepreneurs.

Those few are well-known domestic collectors and entrepreneurs. There is no difficulty in handling this matter. They are also very interested in these antique works of art and want to win a few!"

"These antique works of art are all top-notch goods, and there are many national treasures, but collectors, who doesn't want to accept a few? Even if they sell iron, they will not hesitate!

This private auction of yours will count as one of our Palace Museum. For the treasures of these antique works of art, our Palace Museum is also greedy, and we have to win anything!

But you kid should be merciful! I have heard of your cruel style at the auction. Don't cut it too hard. We have a budget every year!"

"Don't make fun of you! When did the Palace Museum lack money? I don't believe it if you are killed!"

Ye Tian said jokingly, with an exaggerated expression.

While talking, Raymond, the others and the people from the Palace Museum and Cultural Organization team have packed the boxes and they can leave.

Next, Ye Tian shook hands with Mr. Shan, leaving the meeting room with Betty and the others, as well as the top antique artworks, and walked towards the international arrival exit.

Behind them, Mr. Shan and the rest of the Palace Museum's staff and Cultural Organization team kept their sights on the boxes full of antique artworks, each with their sorrowful eyes, as if they had just lost a child!
