At nine o'clock in the morning, at the east end of 78th Street in Midtown Manhattan, the brave and brave explored the company's logistics base.

The elevator door opened, Ye Tian and David came out of it, laughed and walked into the conference room on the fifth floor, and Matisse followed closely behind.

It's the third day back in New York, and everyone has withdrawn, except for Walker and Raymond who remain in Boston, continuing to follow and spy on Thompson's gang.

And in New York, surveillance has not been relaxed at all.

Kenny and Bourne have been monitoring him remotely, keeping an eye on his every move through his phone's location information and the many pinhole cameras Thompson has set up!

At the same time, they are also keeping an eye on the situation of the underground palace of the Old North Church, ready to respond at any time.

Fortunately, everything is as usual, there are no accidents, and there is no rumor, which means that Joey and Blanton have done a good job of secrecy, and there is no leak for the time being.

After returning to New York, Ye Tian immediately gave everyone two days off, so that everyone could go back to rest and reunite with their families.

He also had a very sweet two days!

Now that the holidays are over, it's time to move on to the next step.

The conference room in the logistics base is not big, only thirty or forty square meters, with a long solid wood conference table, and more than a dozen chairs, and nothing else, quite simple!

Kenny and Bourne are busy in the conference room at this time, debugging the network and the laptop on the table.

Seeing this situation, Ye Tian didn't bother these two guys, but sat down at the other end of the conference table and chatted with David and them.

He came here to meet face-to-face with the curators of the museums to which the stolen antiques belonged and famous collectors through online videos.

Originally, he had planned to send company employees and lawyers to meet with the museum directors and famous collectors, and invite them to New York to negotiate with him.

But in this way, it is bound to increase the number of insiders, both within the company, law firms, and other links, and the possibility of leaking secrets will undoubtedly increase a lot.

It was with this in mind that he switched to video calling, which in addition to better confidentiality, also saves a lot of costs, so why not?

A few minutes passed quickly, and Kenny finished his work, got up from his seat, and said:

"Steven, the network and computer are all debugged and ready for video calling"

"How's the security, is there any danger of leaks?"

Ye Tian asked with concern, got up and walked over here.

"Rest assured, Steven, we've double-checked that the computer and the network are very secure, there are no vulnerabilities, no one wants to break in, and in this conference room, there is no possibility of leaking secrets.

The video materials you provided, we have also done technical processing, in addition to burning after reading, but also multiple encryption, absolutely impossible to copy, the security is very high!"

Kenny said confidently, almost patting his chest in reassurance.

"That's great, let's get started, it's just afternoon in Europe, the time is just right!"

Ye Tian nodded in appreciation, and then sat down on the chair in front of the laptop.

Immediately after, David came over and sat next to him, he was a lawyer and had to be present.

Kenny, Byrne, and Matisse, who had finished their work, walked out of the conference room together and closed the door

After tidying up his coat and adjusting his mood a little, Ye Tian moved his mouse to open the chat software.

Then, he clicked on a document on his computer's desktop.

The document contains a list of contacts to be contacted later, as well as the mobile phone numbers or office phone numbers of those contacts.

These materials were all found by Kenny on the Internet, and they were not very difficult.

Soon, you're ready to go!

"Steven, are you going to contact that museum first?"

David asked curiously, looking rather excited.

"The first top-notch artwork I saw at the Czartoryski Museum in Poland, in the warehouse where antiques were kept, was Raphael's Portrait of a Young Man.

This famous painting of the Renaissance master, a well-deserved Polish national treasure, disappeared in 1945 at the end of World War II and has been searched for by the Polish government for decades!

Let's start with this top-notch painting, I believe it will bring us good luck, if the Poles want to get back this national treasure, they will have to pay a lot of dollars!"

Ye Tian chuckled and gave the answer, his eyes full of confidence.

This is a famous painting that can make a lot of money, and he is very sure about this!

Because of World War II, the current ownership of this top painting is not clear.

Even the Czartoryski Museum, which can only say that it was once the owner of this famous painting, may not be able to produce strong evidence to prove that this famous painting really belongs to them.

During the war, Poland was almost in ruins, and many materials were completely destroyed, including many of the ownership of antique artworks.

The loss of relevant information sometimes forced the Polish government to pay large sums of money to buy back its own works of art from the descendants of the Nazis, and it was looted a second time!

This is the case with Raphael's top famous painting.

If the Czartoryski Museum can't produce tangible evidence, it will have to spend a lot of money to buy it back, and there is no other way.

Of course, if the owner is willing to donate for free, that is also a way.

But the unpaid donor can never be Ye Tian, he has no half-dime relationship with Poland, so he naturally will not let go of such an opportunity to make a windfall!

"I know this "Portrait of a Young Man", this painting is so famous, it used to be Hitler's favorite! I didn't expect it to be hidden in Boston, and you found out, you guys are so lucky!"

David exclaimed, almost jumping out of his chair in excitement.

"That's right, buddy is indeed very lucky, and I firmly believe that this famous painting will definitely bring me a lot of wealth!"

Ye Tian said proudly, and then took out his mobile phone and started to make calls.

The bell rang for about seven or eight seconds, and then the other party picked up the phone, and a deep male voice immediately came, speaking in Polish, which he didn't understand at all.

Although the language is different, everyone understands what the other party means in their words.

It's nothing more than the first few words of the call, hello, name, what's the matter, etc.!

Waiting for the other party's voice to fall, Ye Tian immediately said in English:

"Good afternoon, Duke Torresky, I take the liberty of interrupting, this is a call from New York, USA, I'm Steven, I have news of Raphael's famous painting "Portrait of a Young Man"!"

After a brief greeting and self-introduction, he immediately dropped a bombshell to bombard the other person's ears.

If it's late, the other party may think it's a harassing call and hang up directly.

There was silence on the other end of the phone, and apparently, the old man on the other side was stunned!

After a moment's pause, there was an almost frantic exclamation on the other end of the line, followed by a series of eerie accents of Polish English.

"Oh my God, you have the news of Portrait of a Young Man, is it really fake? Where is that painting now? Who are you? How do you know my phone ?......number?"

A whole bunch of questions bombarded me directly, and it sounded a bit incoherent.

Duke Torresky's excitement was about to get out of control!
