Chapter 1957 Devils Can Become Angels

In the medium-sized conference room of the British Museum, the talks were still going on, and the atmosphere was quite tense, and the air was filled with a choking smell of gunpowder.

"This is absolutely impossible, Steven, you are so greedy to the extreme. Obviously, you want to loot all the ancient books in the Dunhuang Scripture Cave in our library. Your appetite is too big, and you are not afraid to hold on." "

The director of the British Library gritted his teeth and said, his eyes were full of anger, and the eyeballs were red.

The other Britons sitting on her left and right, including Prince Charles and Prince William, all had angry eyes and itchy teeth that hated each other.

Contrary to them, Ye Tian and David, who were sitting across from each other, had very relaxed expressions, with bright smiles on their faces all the time.

Of course, the expressions of those British lawyers employed by Ye Tian were rather embarrassing.

However, they still uphold the professionalism and attitude, stand on Ye Tian's standpoint, and strive for greater benefits for him as much as possible.

As soon as the director of the British Library finished speaking, Ye Tian immediately said with a calm smile:

"Ms. Caroline, and gentlemen, don't be impatient. In fact, you don't have to be so angry. Are the terms of the transaction I proposed very excessive? You may think so, but I don't think so.

As far as I know, most of the paintings and scriptures collected in the British Library from the Dunhuang Sutra Cave have never been exhibited publicly, and have been shelved and aging in a dark environment.

Those ancient books and documents from more than a thousand years ago are very fragile. If they are left to be kept in a dark warehouse to collect ashes, it is estimated that it will not take long for those precious ancient books to completely decay.

Rather than that, why not exchange them to me, I will give them the best storage and display conditions, and disclose them to all relevant researchers to maximize their value”

Hearing this, the old faces of the director of the British Library and the director of the British Museum couldn't help turning red, and their expressions were somewhat embarrassed.

The British Museum and the British Library house tens of thousands of paintings and scriptures from the Dunhuang Sutra Cave. They are the two cultural institutions with the largest collection of ancient books in the Dunhuang Sutra Cave in the world.

However, they would rather put those precious ancient books recording Chinese history and culture on the shelf and let them slowly decay, and they would rather not exhibit those ancient books publicly, let alone open them to relevant researchers.

Many Chinese experts on Dunhuang studies have traveled thousands of miles to London, England, but it is difficult to see those precious ancient books and documents. If they want to have a look, they have to apply tirelessly and wait in line.

Even if the application is approved, those experts in Chinese Dunhuang studies can only see a very limited number of ancient books and documents, and it is basically impossible to devote themselves to research.

Not only Caroline and Fisher, but also the faces of other Britons at the scene blushed, but they returned to normal in a blink of an eye.

In the eyes of these Brits, this situation is nothing more than normal, and it is not worth making a fuss about.

In the British Library, the British Museum, and other famous cultural institutions in the UK, the ancient books, documents and antique artworks that have been shelved all the year round are not limited to those pictures and scriptures from the Dunhuang Sutra Cave!

However, this situation will definitely be broken today. Ye Tianzhi is sure to get the Dunhuang scripture cave paintings and scriptures looted from the British Library.

Caroline and Fisher, and Prince Charles, their performance,

Ye Tian saw everything in his eyes.

He acted as if he hadn't seen it, and continued to smile and said:

"Furthermore, for those ancient books and documents from the Dunhuang Sutra Cave, your British Library must have preserved relevant video materials and electronic documents, just like the British Museum.

In the foreseeable future, it is impossible for you to publicly exhibit those ancient documents, and you will still store them in a dark warehouse. Under such circumstances, why is there any need to keep them?

Even if the relevant personnel of the British Library, or some experts and scholars in the UK want to study the ancient books and documents of the Dunhuang Library Cave, the preserved electronic version of the documents can meet the needs and is more convenient.

Let’s talk about the collections of the kings of Jerusalem and the documents that record the history of the Knights Templar that I exchanged, you may not know how precious they are.”

Hearing this, the eyes of Caroline, Fisher, and the other Brits all lit up, and everyone's eyes were shining with a greedy light.

After a short pause, Ye Tian continued to say:

"After leaving the Temple Church, I took the time to study those ancient books and historical documents. In those precious ancient books and historical documents, I harvested a series of huge surprises, enough to cause a sensation in the world.

Almost every book in the collection of the kings of Jerusalem is an orphan. Since Jerusalem was captured by Saladin’s army, those ancient books have completely disappeared. This is the only remaining group, which is extremely precious.

By studying those precious collections, we can trace the history of Europe from the Middle Ages up to the fifth century, and even before and after BC, as well as the history of Jerusalem and its surrounding areas.

Those incomparably precious ancient books contain records covering politics, economy, religion, culture, art, myths and legends, etc., such as the early development of Christianity in Europe.

It is no exaggeration to say that the emergence of those books collected by the King of Jerusalem will change a part of world history, and many unsolved mysteries in history will be solved, and a truth of history will be restored.”

"crash"

Accompanied by a burst of noise, several British guys on the opposite side pushed away their chairs and stood up, staring at Ye Tian with their blood-red eyes, looking quite scary.

Without exception, the eyes of these British guys are full of greed, and they don't hide it.

Ye Tian ignored them, and continued to add weight to the balance of the transaction, with a confident light in his eyes.

"The documents that are closely related to the Knights Templar record a series of major events that occurred in the nearly 200 years from the birth to the demise of the Knights Templar, such as the previous battles they participated in.

All the crusades since 1119 are recorded in detail in those documents, such as the history of the last crusade and fighting side by side with Edward I, who was still the crown prince at that time.

Undoubtedly, those historical documents are extremely precious, not only the most precious historical materials for studying the rise and fall of the Knights Templar, but also the most precious historical materials for studying the history of the Middle Ages and the history of the Crusades.

For the British Library or the British Museum, if these precious ancient books and historical documents are obtained, a series of sensational and major research results will be obtained, and even a discipline category can be created.

Although those scrolls and scriptures from the scripture cave in Dunhuang, China are also very precious and have great research value, but you already have electronic files, so why keep those scrolls and scriptures that have been shelved?

Comparing the two, which choice is most beneficial to you, I believe you will make the most sensible choice. Of course, whether you agree to the conditions I set out and make a deal with me, the initiative is up to you.

If you refuse my offer, then I can only find another transaction partner. The Vatican, the French, and the Americans are all very interested in those incomparably precious ancient books and historical documents.

In addition to the Vatican, France and the United States also have many paintings and scriptures from the Dunhuang Library Cave, as well as other top-level antiques from China. Trading with them, I may get more! "

Hearing this, Caroline, the curator of the British Library, immediately became impatient.

This lady has long forgotten what elegance is. She pressed her hands on the conference table, poked her head forward, stared at her blood-red eyes, and said word by word:

"Steven, let's not talk about whether our British Library agreed to those unbelievable conditions you offered, traded with you, and was ransacked crazily by you, a greedy guy.

The books of the kings of Jerusalem and the documents of the history of the Knights Templar that were discovered deep beneath the Temple Church will not be allowed to leave the UK.

Those incomparably precious collections of books and historical documents have been included in the list of antique works of art restricted from leaving the country. No matter the Vatican, the French or the Americans, don't even try to take them away! "

As soon as Caroline finished speaking, the British Minister of Culture immediately continued:

"That's right, Steven, the collections of the kings of Jerusalem and the documents recording the history of the Knights Templar must not leave the country without the approval of the British Ministry of Culture, even you can't take them away"

Ye Tian glanced at the British guys on the opposite side, then smiled lightly and said:

"I want to make a statement. I am a law-abiding citizen and a law-abiding businessman. I have never had a bad record of violating laws and disciplines. It is well-known about this, and you must have heard of it."

"poof"

David and the others finally couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

But fortunately, these guys quickly held back their smiles, although they were blushing and working very hard!

As for the British guys on the opposite side, Qiqi rolled his eyes and complained unhappily to himself.

law abiding citizen? You bastard also had the nerve to say with a shy face, go ahead and lie to ghosts, I guess ghosts won't believe it.

If you're a law-abiding citizen, you bastard, the devil can become an angel too!
