Chapter 1965 Great Moment

When Ye Tian and the others arrived at the British Library, Mr. Shan and a large number of domestic cultural and cultural personnel had already arrived here in advance, and entered the British Library one after another as tourists, and then gathered in a medium-sized lecture hall.

In this way, they successfully avoided the eyes of many media reporters and the sight of many visitors, and their actions were very low-key.

Of course, all of this was arranged by Ye Tian, ​​just to avoid complications.

The British Library is also very cooperative, and they also hope that this art transaction can be completed smoothly without any accidents.

Led by a deputy curator of the British Library, Ye Tian walked into this medium-sized lecture hall with his sister-in-law.

As soon as he entered the lecture hall, Ye Tian saw that Caroline, the curator of the British Library, was talking with Mr. Shan and the others. Everyone was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere seemed very harmonious.

Seeing this scene, Ye Tian didn't feel the slightest surprise.

Caroline and Mr. Shan belonged to two of the world's top cultural and museum institutions, the British Library and the Forbidden City, and both hold important positions and are well-known in their respective fields. They must have met on many occasions before and are very familiar with each other.

Beside and behind Caroline stood several other senior officials of the British Library, as well as some cultural and cultural personnel, with relatively serious expressions.

Those top experts on antique art appraisal from the Forbidden City and the National Museum, as well as many cultural and cultural personnel, stood behind Shan Lao and the others, and everyone was extremely excited, with their eyes shining brightly.

Mr. Qian, who volunteered to participate in the collection of antique works of art, and several other old men are also in this lecture hall at the moment, and they are equally excited.

After a quick glance at the situation in the lecture hall, Ye Tian led his sister-in-law and the others to walk in, and walked straight to the side where Elder Shan and Caroline were.

At the same time, everyone in the lecture hall turned their heads to look over. Because of the different nationalities, the expressions of the people present were quite different.

Without exception, all the Chinese people at the scene were extremely excited and full of expectations; all the British people were full of resentment, and even hated their teeth.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian and the others had come close.

"Good morning, Ms. Caroline, it's nice to see you again, the weather is fine today, I hope you can have a good mood, you look so elegant and beautiful today"

Ye Tian greeted Caroline enthusiastically, and sent a few compliments.

"Good morning, Steven, I'm glad to see you again, but I'm afraid I won't be in a good mood. It's hard for anyone to be in a good mood after being ransacked like crazy."

Caroline said with a smile, and shook hands with Ye Tian.

"Hahaha"

There was a lot of laughter at the scene, and all the Chinese who could understand English laughed.

Those Chinese who couldn't understand English quickly learned the meaning of Caroline's words through the translator, and they all laughed immediately.

The British guys who were at the same scene naturally couldn't laugh, and their expressions were somewhat depressed.

Next, Ye Tian introduced my sister-in-law and others.

Hearing that the Chinese woman in her early forties in front of her was Aunt Ye Tian, ​​Caroline immediately jokingly said in a slightly complaining tone:

"Ms. Ye, you should really take care of your nephew and let him be kind to us,

This guy's methods are really ruthless, our British Library was ransacked crazily by this guy."

"Hahaha"

There was laughter again, everyone laughed, and everyone felt the same way.

After getting to know each other and exchanging a few polite greetings, we entered today's topic.

"Ms. Caroline, please take us to the warehouse where the Dunhuang scriptures and the forty-five volumes of "Yongle Dadian" are stored, so that we can count and appraise, and then complete this art transaction between us"

Ye Tian said with a smile, his tone and expression were quite calm, and nothing abnormal could be seen.

However, Mr. Shan and the others standing nearby, as well as all the other Chinese in the lecture hall, heard his words, their eyes lit up with excitement, and they almost cheered loudly.

Caroline took a deep look at Ye Tian, ​​then nodded with a smile and said:

"Okay, Steven, please come with me, and I'll take you to the warehouse where the Dunhuang scriptures and the "Yongle Canon" are stored. As you can imagine, this will be a sad moment in the long history of the British Library. day"

After speaking, Caroline made a gesture of invitation, and then led Ye Tian and the others to walk outside the lecture hall.

While stepping out, Ye Tian also smiled and said:

"Ms Caroline, this may be a sad day for you at the British Library, but for all Chinese people this is a great historical moment worth celebrating.

And I'm sure, you will soon get a huge surprise, that surprise is enough to wash away all your unhappiness and pain, for you and me, this is definitely a win-win art transaction"

While talking, the group of them walked out of the lecture hall and walked to the warehouse where the Dunhuang scriptures and "Yongle Dadian" are preserved.

Ten minutes later, the group of them came to a library with constant temperature and humidity, and began to prepare for storage.

Because the environment in the warehouse is special, and there are many valuable ancient rare books and important historical documents stored there, anyone who enters it must make some preparations.

First of all, everyone has to put on a full set of protective clothing, masks and gloves, and then they have to pass through three isolation doors before they can actually enter the library and see those precious ancient books.

The guest can do what he wants, after all, this is the territory of the British, so it is not easy to turn the guest into the main.

Furthermore, this is indeed a very scientific procedure, which is beneficial to the protection of those precious ancient and rare books and historical documents. Naturally, everyone will not object.

Before arriving at the library, Ye Tian and the others immediately entered the preparation room, followed the instructions of the relevant personnel of the British Museum, and began to wear protective equipment.

Not many people entered the preparation room, only Ye Tian, ​​Shan Lao, and several top calligraphy and painting appraisal experts from the Forbidden City and the National Museum.

As for my sister-in-law and the other cultural and museum personnel from the Forbidden City and the National Museum, they all stayed in the hall outside the library, and they had to wait a while before they could enter.

The main task of Ye Tian and others entering the library first is to determine the number of Dunhuang scriptures and "Yongle Dadian", and quickly identify the authenticity of those priceless treasures.

After they finish these tasks, the cultural and museum personnel outside the library can enter the library and start the follow-up cleaning work.

In a blink of an eye, the preparations were completed.

At this time, Ye Tian and Shan Lao had changed their appearances. Everyone was wearing white protective clothing, masks, gloves, and goggles, ready to enter the library.

After the equipment was completed, the few of them came out of the preparation room and came to the first transparent isolation door.

Caroline, who was also wearing a protective suit, glanced at them, then made a gesture of please, and said with a smile:

"Gentlemen, please, the ancient rare books and historical documents stored in this library are all from China, and each one is of great value, the most valuable of which are the Dunhuang Canon and the "Yongle Dadian".

You are not the first batch of Chinese to enter this library, but you are definitely the largest group of visitors. More importantly, you will take away the most important treasures in this library. It is painful to think about it! "

Before the words were finished, the tempered glass door in front of everyone slowly slid open.

Caroline stepped out first and walked into the first isolation door, followed by several other high-level and cultural personnel of the British Museum, who also walked in.

The last ones to enter were Ye Tian and Mr. Shan. They were extremely excited, and some of the old men's hands were even trembling slightly.

After they all entered the isolation room, the first isolation door behind them was closed.

After a short pause, the second isolation door opened, and everyone entered the next isolation room.

Next, the same procedure was repeated again.

When the last isolation door was opened, a refreshing fragrance of ink rushed to the face immediately, directly penetrated into the noses of Ye Tian and Old Shan, making each of them intoxicated.

At this time, they looked at the rows of bookshelves with astonishing length reaching the roof, as well as the countless ancient rare books and historical documents placed on the bookshelves, and they all stood there dumbfounded.

Without exception, each of them was completely shocked by the situation in the library in front of them, including Ye Tian who had already seen everything through perspective.

This is a sea of ​​books, blooming with an incomparably bright light of civilization!

"Steven, and gentlemen, the Dunhuang Canon and the "Yongle Canon" that you are eager to see are stored here. Please come with me."

Following Caroline's words, Ye Tian and the others all came to their senses.

In the next instant, the eyes of each of them became brighter, like searchlights!
