Between three or two steps, Ye Tian had already walked to the window on the left.

Without waiting for a moment, after standing still, Ye Tian immediately stretched out his hands and pressed them on the edge of the wall that had opened a gap, and pushed the wall away with force.

With his movements, the tall wall slowly opened up into the room, and the hidden lattice behind it gradually appeared in front of everyone.

The first thing people see is the inner workings of this dark grid.

It is a wall that has been almost hollowed out, except for the façade of the wall, which faces Central Park, to hide from the eye.

The rest is made entirely of aluminum, ranging from arm-thick aluminium cylinders to support them, and large aluminium plates welded together to act as walls, which are very strong.

The aluminum alloy wall of the living room of the apartment was tightly wrapped in light brown cherry wood planks, and it was perfectly concealed, and there was no flaw in sight.

What's even more ingenious is that the interior of this dark compartment is divided into two parts, different in size.

The area where "Chunmei Independence" is hung is the upper part of the dark grid, where the aluminum alloy walls look thicker, compressing the internal space of the dark grid.

The aluminum alloy wall that frames the lower half of the dark lattice is relatively thin, and the interior space is a little larger.

It was precisely because of the difference in thickness that the situation just now appeared, Ye Tian knocked on the walls of the two areas respectively, and the sound fed back was slightly different.

In addition, this dark compartment also leaves a vent, which blends perfectly with the ventilation system in the apartment, so that the environment in the dark compartment is basically the same as the indoor environment.

In this case, the antique artwork hidden in the dark compartment is no different from the rest of the apartment, which is conducive to the preservation of the antique artwork.

It's a well-designed, sturdy safe! and it's so hidden that there's barely any sign of it on the façade.

Seeing the internal structure of this dark grid, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

That's why top antique dealers and collectors like Ellsworth will renovate the entire wall and turn it into a safe to hide their beloved antique artworks.

Most of the others don't even have a chance to enter this top-notch apartment, let alone renovate the entire wall!

Even if he has enough strength to buy this top-notch apartment, does he have the top antique art that needs to be hidden and worth making such a big deal about?

Although the dark grid is very delicate, it is not the target of everyone's attention.

What everyone wants to know more is, what kind of treasures are hidden in the dark grid, which are worthy of being treasured by Ellsworth, how valuable are these treasures, and are they priceless?

With such thoughts, everyone looked into the dark compartment, everyone's eyes were extremely hot, their eyes were full of anticipation, and even a little greedy.

There are a lot of things in the dark grid, there are ten very fine flat wooden boxes, the size is basically the same, about 40 * 30 * 15, divided into three rows diagonally inserted on a shelf in the dark grid.

If you are familiar with Chinese antique art, or familiar with Chinese furniture, you can recognize at a glance that these are very rare golden silk nan wood boxes, and they are all antiques with years!

This size of the golden silk nan wood box, either used to hold rare books, or used to hold precious jewelry, basically for these two purposes, for other aspects is not very likely.

It's a pity that these golden silk nan wood boxes are all covered, and it is impossible to see what is inside, let alone understand the value of the things inside.

There is also a painting in the dark grid, which looks like an oil painting, not small in size, wrapped in white moisture-proof paper, standing against the wall, and the specific content is not clear.

Apart from these, there is nothing else.

Although I can't see the specific content of these things and don't understand how much they are worth, the scene in front of me still caused a huge sensation on the live broadcast end.

"Wow! There are so many things in this dark grid, there are more than a dozen of them! Steven, that bastard is really lucky, and another windfall!"

"I wonder what is in those beautiful boxes, and the painting against the wall is the work of that master?

Since they are worthy of being here and so carefully treasured by Ellsworth, there is no doubt that they must be priceless and top-notch antique works of art!

In the top mansion on 110th Street before, Steven found two of Cézanne's top famous paintings, which were auctioned for hundreds of millions of dollars, I wonder what he will get this time?"

While there was a lot of discussion, people were staring at the treasures in the dark grid, their eyes were extremely hot, and they couldn't wait to see through the screen directly and see the true face of those treasures.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian completely opened the dark grid and presented it at a ninety degree angle to the window.

"Wow! An Siyuan's hand is so big, he actually made such a big dark grid!"

David said with emotion, the whole person was very excited, and his eyes lit up.

Ye Tian quickly glanced at the structure of this dark grid, and then said with a smile:

"That's Ellsworth, one of the world's top antique dealers and collectors, and the various antique works of art that flow through his hands are tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands.

There are a lot of antique artworks in his hands, which will stay in his hands for a period of time, and he himself has collected a lot of fine products, so he naturally needs some relatively safe places to preserve.

In addition to the leased vaults on Manhattan Island, it's no surprise that he has transformed such a safe-like secret compartment in his own home.

Judging from the style of this dark grid and some traces left behind, this dark grid has existed for at least 30 years, and it should have been rebuilt in the early 80s of the last century!"

"Steven, let's not talk about the dark grid, I'll have time to study it later! Now what everyone wants to know most is what is in those boxes? Whose work is that painting? How much is it worth?"

Jason said excitedly, looking a little impatient.

Betty and David were the same, both nodding at Ye Tian, their eyes fixed on the boxes in the dark grid, and the painting standing against the wall.

This is especially true of the countless melon-eating people on the live broadcast end, who have been tormented by curiosity and are about to scratch the wall.

"Alright then, let's find out the answer now, lest everyone suffer again, and then draw circles behind my back and curse me!"

Ye Tian said with a chuckle and accepted Jason's proposal.

"Hahaha"

There was a burst of laughter at the scene and on the live broadcast end, and the atmosphere eased a little.

Then, Ye Tian suppressed the excitement in his heart and reached out to pick up a golden silk nan wooden box from the shelf in the dark compartment.

The moment he picked up the box, his movements were immediately much softer, like holding a newborn baby!

"You may not know this box, this is a very Chinese small piece of furniture, called a box, made of golden silk nan wood, very rare, very valuable!

This size of the box is generally used to hold the more precious rare books and Buddhist scriptures, as well as other books, and some people also use it to hold stationery or complete sets of jewelry.

In my judgment, this golden silk nanmu box should come from the Qing Dynasty court office in China, which has a history of more than 200 years and is a rare antique!

This golden silk nanmu box should have been used to hold books, and it can be seen from the poems engraved on it, but I don't know what it is in now, I hope it can bring us a surprise!"

As he spoke, Ye Tian opened the golden silk nanmu box in his hand and looked inside. 2k reading web
