Half past five in the afternoon.

Ye Tian got up and sent the last group of visitors out of the conference room today, ready to ask Jason to take them to the elevator.

These visitors are from Japan, and the polite ones are a bit tiresome.

As soon as he walked out of the conference room, the director of the Tokyo National Museum, headed by him, immediately turned around, bowed to Ye Tian ninety degrees again, and said extremely respectfully:

"Mr. Steven, please, please help us get back those two masterpieces by Hirodai Kogawa, "Torida-juku" and "Kanaya-juku", which are our national treasures of Japan and must not be lost.

In return, I can give Mr. Steven's "Crossing the Water in the Cave Mountain" by Ma Yuan, a famous painter of the Southern Song Dynasty in China, to thank you for your generosity and kindness.

In addition, the four paintings you requested by Dong Yuan of the Five Dynasties of China, Fan Kuan of the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhao Mengfu of the Yuan Dynasty, and Shen Zhou of the Ming Dynasty will be immediately notified to the museum and they will be shipped to New York as soon as possible!

Immediately after the director of the museum, the rest of the Japanese present were counted as one, and they all bowed ninety degrees to Ye Tian, and shouted in unison very respectfully:

"Please, Mr. Steven, please take care of me!"

Seeing this situation, everyone else inside and outside the conference room couldn't help but feel a little dumbfounded.

These Japanese are too much, aren't they? Such a big bow, and the momentum is so fierce, they are not afraid to pinch their waists!

As the party concerned, Ye Tian was smiling and enjoying the other party's gift calmly, without any embarrassment!

"Of course those two paintings of Gogawa Hiroshige have to be returned to you, buddy doesn't have a hobby of collecting those broken things, not to mention that you can exchange them for four top ancient Chinese paintings, what a good business, why not?

But there is one thing buddy must say sorry in advance, the aura contained in these two so-called Japanese national treasure paintings, buddy is going to laugh half of it, I hope you don't mind!"

Of course, these are all Ye Tian's inner activities, and it is impossible to say them.

"Don't worry, Mr. Suzuki, you will definitely see these two Japanese National Treasures with your own eyes and bring them back to Japan to be redisplayed in the exhibition halls of the Tokyo National Museum!"

With these two free days, you can take in the sights of New York and see how it is different from Tokyo!

Ye Tian said politely, with a bright smile on his face.

"We're going to see New York, thank you, Mr. Steven, goodbye!"

Suzuki straightened up and said, still very polite and respectful.

The rest of the Japanese behaved in the same way, as if carved out of a mold.

In the eyes of others on the scene, there was almost nothing to say about the performance of these Japanese!

But in Ye Tian's eyes, no matter how you look at it, this kind of politeness has a servile taste, and it doesn't feel comfortable!

Then, Jason walked to the elevator with these Japanese, and Ye Tian turned back to the conference room.

After dropping the Japanese off at the elevator, Jason quit and went back to the company.

As soon as he left, a Japanese man immediately said angrily:

"Curator Suzuki, are we paying too high a price? Those ancient Chinese paintings are rare top works of art, and they were ransacked by this bastard?"

"Who can be willing? I am the same, but what can I do? We knew before we came here, this is a ruthless bastard who doesn't lose anything!

Don't you see how he dealt with the Germans? He was just as ruthless and merciless! How could we be an exception? Admit it, as long as you can recover the two paintings of Master Kogawa Hiroshi, it will be worth it!"

Suzuki said in frustration, with a pained expression on his face.

Hearing this, the rest of the Japanese were speechless.

That's right, what can you do if you don't admit it?

"Ding!"

The elevator came.

Several Japanese people walked into the elevator one after another, ready to go downstairs!

At the moment when the elevator door closed, a Japanese man with his head lowered flashed a sharp glint in his eyes!

Inside the conference room.

All the museum directors and collectors on the list, we have been in contact, have had fruitful exchanges, and reached a verbal agreement!

If there is no major change, we should be able to sign the contract in the next day or two, and then we will return to Boston, pick up the stolen top antique artworks, and make a windfall!"

Ye Tian looked at the few people present and said with a smug smile.

As soon as the words fell, the scene immediately resounded with cheers.

"Great! I love this treasure hunt!"

"What a fortune that is, I can't imagine it!"

When the cheers subsided slightly, Ye Tian's voice immediately sounded again.

"Folks, success is at hand, and a lot of wealth is within reach! But the more we get to this point, the more we must be cautious, and we must not make mistakes, lest the chickens and eggs be beaten, and there will be empty joy!

Everyone should also stay in a centralized place at the logistics base, and anyone who goes out or has contact with the outside world must be accompanied by someone, and they are absolutely not allowed to act alone! All activities such as making phone calls and surfing the Internet are no exception!

This is in everyone's interests, no matter how careful you are, I hope you understand, even if you don't understand, you must carry it out! Everyone stay up for a few more days, and the sun will be shining in a few days!"

"Oh my God! I'm going to have to suffer for a few days! It's so painful, I've almost forgotten what Sophie looks like, and if I continue like this, I'm going to be an ascetic!"

Jason lamented loudly, his expression looking very painful and exaggerated!

But there was excitement in his eyes.

"A short period of abstinence is not a bad thing, maybe it will make you more harmonious, and when this matter is over, everyone can take turns on vacation, and even if your kid dies on Sophie's belly, we won't stop you!"

Ye Tian joked, making Jason funny.

"Hahaha"

There was a burst of laughter in the room.

Next, everyone began to pack their things and prepare to return to the 78th Street Logistics Base.

Ye Tian left the conference room and walked towards Betty's office.

He didn't go far before he entered the office area.

Seeing him coming, all the employees stood up excitedly.

Immediately after, a large number of questions immediately came flooding in, and the momentum was so fierce that Ye Tian was a little caught off guard!

"Boss, our company has been so lively in the past two days, so many people come in and out, and they come from all over the world, and there are many celebrities in the field of antique art collection!

What the hell are you doing? It's such a big scene, and it's so mysterious, and you don't reveal anything, can you tell you about it? We're all very curious and want to know!"

In the past two days, I have seen several heavyweights from the Louvre, the British Museum, the Metropolitan Museum, and MOMA!

I really can't imagine what kind of major event can make these industry leaders come to our company one after another, this is really exaggerated!

Until this moment, these company employees didn't know about the Boston treasure hunt, they only knew that Ye Tian and Jason had been busy, as if they were planning some action, and they didn't know anything else!

This is Ye Tian's intention, to expect so many employees in the company to keep secrets, it is almost impossible!

So, the best thing to do is to hide it from them until the moment of the official showdown.

For the questions of the company's employees, Ye Tian answered them selectively.

"That's right, I'm really planning a treasure hunt, and the people who came here in the past two days have come to discuss cooperation, and you can see it accurately, many of them are indeed big names in the industry!

But I'm very sorry, I can't tell you the specific content for the time being, this treasure hunt is still in the secret stage, and I can't leak the news, I hope you can also keep it secret!

However, I can reveal a little information in advance, maybe in a few days, everyone will know the specific content of this treasure hunt, and will also understand what our company's goal is.

At that time, everyone will definitely be very busy, there will be a lot of things to do, and I can guarantee that everyone will be rewarded handsomely for every effort you make, and each of you will reap a surprise!"

"Wow! That's great! We're looking forward to this surprise!"

There was a cheer again, and everyone was very excited.

"It's almost time to get off work, everyone pack up their things, get ready to go home, I wish you all a pleasant evening, don't forget!

After finishing speaking, Ye Tian walked quickly through the office area and into Betty's office.

Many of the company's employees talked a few words, and then began to pack up their things and prepare to go home.

Inside the office.

Betty, who was wearing a top-of-the-line professional suit, was busy with her head down at this time, very focused, and didn't notice the changes in the situation around her at all.

Ye Tian didn't let the secretary report, and walked in quietly.

In two or three steps, he had walked to his desk, smiling and admiring the busy Betty, his eyes full of love.

It wasn't until Betty put down the pen in his hand that he said aloud:

"Honey, are you done?"

Suddenly hearing his voice, Betty couldn't help but be startled and looked up sharply.

Immediately after, she left her chair and came to Ye Tian's side.

"Honey, when did you come in? I didn't say hello, it startled me, I'm done with this little thing at hand, how is the situation on your side?

"It's all done! Now it's just a matter of signing the contract, and then it's time for the final showdown!"

Ye Tian said proudly, his tone was very confident and excited.

"That's great! I didn't expect it to go so well!"

Betty cheered directly, looking extremely excited.

"It's really going well, don't talk about this, it's time to get off work now, pack up your things and go! I'm going to go to 78th Street to have a look, you can go with me!"

"I'm afraid not, I'm going to go to Sotheby's auction house to talk about settling the auction money, and I've already made an appointment with someone!

"Okay, you go and do something, call me when you're done, I'll go over to find you, pay attention to safety on the road!"

"Okay, I'll contact you as soon as I'm done!"

Betty nodded and kissed Ye Tian gently.

After chatting for a few more words, Ye Tian turned around and left the office and went to meet Jason!
