In the room on the third floor, the Bishop of Kent and Giovanni were still stunned, staring at Ye Tian, ​​staring at the wall in front of them, everyone's eyes were extremely hot.

Everyone's performance was within Ye Tian's expectation, and he didn't feel surprised at all.

He just smiled softly, and then continued his performance.

"At the end of the eighteenth century, after Napoleon led an army to conquer Italy, he instructed his army to ransack Italy, and even forced the pope to sign a punitive contract.

The contract stipulates that the Pope must give up a large piece of the richest land, compensate France 30 million francs, and hand over the best oil paintings and sculptures in major museums, and ship them to France.

Napoleon not only ransacked the Holy See, but also ransacked many cities in Italy. Among them, the cities with the greatest losses were Florence and Venice, Milan, and Rome.

Even the most famous Uffizi Museum in Florence was almost looted by Napoleon, only because the Uffizi Museum is a public property, Napoleon was afraid of arousing public outrage, so he did not looting.

The "Last Supper" created by Leonardo da Vinci and located in the Church of Santa Maria in Milan was almost looted. Considering that it was a fresco and very fragile, Napoleon let it go.

Napoleon ransacked countless top oil paintings and sculptures from Italy and transported them all back to France. This is how many top oil paintings and sculptures are displayed in the Louvre Museum's Grand Gallery.

The treasures of Napoleon discovered by our company near Notre Dame de Paris also contain many top oil paintings and sculptures from Italy. They are the trophies that Napoleon looted from Italy.

After Napoleon was defeated and ousted from power, the top oil paintings and sculptures that were looted from major Italian cities were left in France by the French through various diplomatic means until now."

Before the words were over, the curator of the Sforza Castle Museum continued to say:

"Yes, Napoleon's crazy looting of Italy is a catastrophe in the history of Italian art. He robbed countless top oil paintings and sculptures from Italy.

The Sforza Castle was not spared either. Some of our top oil paintings and sculptures were snatched by the French, and they are now displayed in the Louvre Grand Gallery! "

Hearing this, the other Italians on the scene nodded, and everyone looked like they were concerned.

Not only that, these guys also collectively initiated a condemnation, and the object of the condemnation is of course the culprit who ransacked Italy, Napoleon!

Of course, the eyes they looked at Ye Tian were not very friendly, and the roots of their teeth were itchy.

You know, after Ye Tian discovered and recovered Napoleon’s treasure in Paris, he did not return the top oil paintings and sculptures from Italy in the treasure to the original owner and return it to Italy.

Instead, he took advantage of these priceless top antique artworks to slaughter Italy severely, and sent many of the top antique artworks to auctions or private transactions, and were bought by museums and top collectors in other countries.

There are also some top antique works of art that have become his private collection, and each one is a treasure, and each one is invaluable.

In comparison, the Italian government, major museums, and top Italian collectors bought only a small part of it!

This is not over yet. Soon after discovering Napoleon’s treasure, he personally came to Italy and began to ransack every top antique art that he saw but was ignored by others!

For the Italians, Napoleon's crazy looting of Italy at the end of the eighteenth century made every one of them unforgettable and heartbroken!

But what happened today, Ye Tian's crazy looting of Italy, is it not the case, and they feel more empathetic! This is simply a repeat of history!

Faced with this situation, how can these Italians at the scene not hate their teeth!

Ye Tian didn't see the performance of these Italians.

Allowing these Italians to condemn a few words, he then continued to say:

"Napoleon's looting of top antique cultural relics and works of art caused a huge sensation in Italy. All museums and individuals that have collections of top antique cultural relics and works of art are panicked and everyone is in danger.

Especially after he occupied Venice, ransacked the 20 most exquisite top oil paintings and 500 most precious manuscripts of the Republic of Venice, and destroyed the Republic of Venice, it shocked all museums and collectors.

After the news reached Milan, many museums and collectors were in panic all day long, for fear that they would become the next target to be looted by Napoleon. As a matter of course, people began to do everything possible to hide their fine collections.

The person living in this historic building may be a collector, or an important member of a certain family or a high-level member of a famous museum. In order to hide his important collection, he started to transform it.

Then, he hid his important collection here! It must be admitted that he was very successful in transforming this place, leaving almost no flaws. At the end of the eighteenth century, he might have successfully deceived the French soldiers.

It is a pity that the thickness of this wall betrayed him. When he re-decorated this place, his inadvertent neoclassical artistic tendency also betrayed him. Because of this, we can discover the secret hidden here."

Listening to what Ye Tian said, everyone at the scene nodded frequently, and at the same time they were very envious!

Why didn't the person who bought this historic building and discovered this important secret not himself? If you change to yourself, it would be perfect!

After a moment of silence, Giovanni said aloud:

"You are right, Steven. After Napoleon ransacked the most exquisite and top art works of the Republic of Venice, it caused a huge panic in Italy, and many people began to hide their collections.

In particular, the museums and collectors in the two cities of Milan and Florence are trying their best to hide the top antique relics and works of art to avoid being looted by the French. These are related records."

Before he could say anything, the director of the Brera Art Museum couldn't wait to say:

"Since it's confirmed that there is a mezzanine or hidden grid in this wall, and there are probably secrets hidden on the ceiling, what are you waiting for? Steven, can you start to open this wall and ceiling now?"

Ye Tian looked at this old friend ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and then smiled and nodded and said:

"Yes, we can start an action at any time to open this wall and ceiling to see what secrets are hidden inside. Hopefully, it will be a surprisingly significant discovery!

In order to ensure that this exploratory operation is open and transparent, I invite everyone to come up and witness the next operation together and uncover this secret that has been hidden for more than two hundred years.

One more point, after all, this is a building with a history of more than 500 years. We have to break open the walls and ceiling. You must be there to witness it so as not to cause trouble.

After the renovation of this wall and ceiling were completed, they were never opened again. The carvings and patterns on the ceiling with neoclassical artistic colors are the best proof!

In other words, the things that were hidden here at the end of the eighteenth century are probably still in the walls, unless the people who renovated here did not put anything in.

Next, we will open this wall and ceiling to see what is hidden inside. In the process, we will take all necessary protective measures! "

"Wow! It's so exciting!"

There was a sound of exclamation at the scene, and everyone became more excited. Everyone's eyes lit up, staring at the wall and ceiling.

Giovanni and the rest of the Italians, who stood by, had a look of jealousy flashing in their eyes at the same time.

Steven this **** is really too cautious, and he doesn't leak. Even if he wants to trouble the bastard, he can't find any suitable excuses and loopholes.

After introducing the situation here, Ye Tian told Tony who was waiting at the side and they were ready to demolish this wall.

These guys had already waited and couldn't wait, and immediately acted upon Ye Tian's order!
