Chapter 3237： Uninvited guests at night

Chapter 3237 Uninvited guests under the night

Night fell, and darkness enveloped the entire Atlantic Ocean.

The two superyachts of the joint exploration fleet were full of laughter and moving music.

Almost everyone on the two superyachts, including those media reporters, was having a blast, one by one.

But this does not include Ye Tian and Professor Paul, who are not on these two super yachts.

At this time, they were sitting in the cabin of the Intrepid, evaluating the gold and silver treasures and antique artifacts from the treasures of the ancient Roman Senate in the ruins of Rabat Shera.

Of course, when they are at sea, they can only use the high-definition videos and pictures taken by Nick and the others for identification and evaluation, and they are temporarily unable to get their hands on the real thing.

However, with their strength and eyesight, especially with Ye Tian's ability, not being able to use the real thing will not affect the accuracy of the appraisal.

After a full day of excavation and clean-up, the ancient Roman treasure has been cleared and transported to the underground vault of the National Bank of Morocco for preservation.

Even those large and heavy ancient Roman sculptures were transported to the National Museum of Morocco for preservation.

The reason why I chose to save it in these two places is naturally for safety reasons.

After Ye Tian left Rabat with the brigade, the security force left in Rabat was much weaker, not enough to protect such an amazing treasure, and there was no need to take this risk.

Giving the gold and silver treasures and antiques in this ancient Roman treasure to the Moroccans is not only safer, but also promotes trust between the two parties.

What's more, Ye Tian is not worried at all about the Moroccans' perineum...

Moroccans dare not play tricks until they find the legendary Atlantis.

By the time he found Atlantis, Ye Tian had already transported away all the gold and silver treasures and antiques that belonged to him that he had discovered earlier.

Even if he didn't get lucky, he didn't believe the Moroccans would dare to do that.

If they dared to do so, he would immediately retaliate until the Moroccans hand-delivered the stolen or withheld treasures.

When excavating and clearing the ancient Roman treasure in the ruins of Shera, Nick took pictures of every gold and silver treasure and antique artifacts they found, including high-definition video and pictures.

Not only that, they also photographed the details of each gold and silver treasure and antique relics for Ye Tian and the others to conduct video identification.

At this time, Ye Tian and Professor Paul were identifying an ancient Roman relic.

The basis for their identification is the high-definition video and pictures taken by Nick.

Also at the scene were Yahya and two Moroccan antique art appraisal experts.

On the big-screen TV in front of everyone, there are also several appraisal experts from the Moroccan Ministry of Culture and the National Museum.

"Steven, look here, there is an ancient Greek letter C, combined with the noble shape of this Roman dagger, and the time when the Roman Empire conquered Mauritania.

Could this be the sword of the Roman Emperor Claudius? We know that it was during his reign that the Roman Empire conquered the land of Morocco"

Professor Kane pointed to a Roman dagger on the high-definition picture and said.

There was indeed an ancient Greek letter 'C' engraved on the spine of the rusted Roman dagger.

Hearing this, the eyes of everyone on the scene lit up with excitement.

Everyone knows very well what a Roman emperor's sabre means, and it is definitely a top antique relic.

Ye Tian did not respond immediately, but pretended to carefully examine the Roman dagger.

Then, he fell into thought again.

After thinking for a moment, he smiled and shook his head and said:

"Judging from the shape of the sword and the engraved pattern, this Roman dagger is of high grade, close to the sword of the emperor, but it is not up to the standard of the sword of the emperor, and it is slightly inferior.

From this, it is certain that it should not be Claudius's sword. In fact, Claudius was unable to travel far because of polio, and basically stayed in Rome.

However, I suspect that it may have been a saber given by Claudius to an ancient Roman general, presumably to reward the Roman general for conquering or ruling Mauritania.

During the reign of Claudius in Rome, the Roman Empire conquered Mauritania. At that time, the governor of Mauritania and the governor of Spain were all close friends of Claudius.

It is entirely possible for him to make some high-level daggers, engrave his own logo, and then give them to many henchmen as a reward. Such things have been discovered before.

After Claudius died, his adopted son Nero came to power and became the Roman emperor. Soon after Nero came to power, he began to exclude dissidents, and the then governor of Mauritania was his enemy.

There was also Galba, the Spanish governor at the time, and Nero eventually killed the governor of Mauritania, and he was finally declared a public enemy of the country by the Senate because of his perverse behavior.

It was the Spanish governor Galba who replaced him as the Roman emperor. Based on the analysis of this history, I am more inclined to think that this is the sword of the governor of Mauritania"

Hearing his analysis, everyone nodded slightly.

Although no objection was raised, there were still some doubts.

At this moment, Ye Haiya suddenly asked curiously:

"Steven, if your statement is correct, this is the sword of the Roman governor of Mauritania, how much is it worth?"

Ye Tian looked at the old friend, then smiled and said:

"If this is really the sword of the Governor of Mauritania in the Roman Empire, and it is so well preserved, it can be regarded as a top antique relic, and it is very valuable.

If you must give an estimate, I think the value of this Roman dagger should be around two million dollars, of course, this is just my personal appraisal opinion.”

With his words, everyone has no doubts about the value of this Roman dagger.

Naturally, no one questioned the valuation he gave.

After carefully studying and appreciating this Roman dagger for a while, everyone just finished its identification and evaluation.

After recording the appraisal conclusion and valuation given by Ye Tian, ​​everyone began to appraise the next ancient Roman antique.

In the blink of an eye, the time has come to around eleven o'clock in the evening.

Most of the gold and silver treasures and antique cultural relics from the ancient Roman treasure in the ruins of Rabat Shera have been appraised and evaluated, and Ye Tian gave a rough estimate.

Seeing that it was too late, everyone was a little tired, so Ye Tian ended the unique video conference of appreciation and evaluation tonight.

The remaining small part of the gold and silver treasures and antiques can only be put to the appraisal and evaluation tomorrow night, anyway, there is plenty of time.

As for those ancient Roman sculptures, Ye Tian just admired them for a while, but did not give a clear appraisal conclusion or valuation.

He told others that he can only give accurate appraisal conclusions and estimates after he has personally appreciated it and experienced it with his heart.

Of course, it's just his excuse, just to make everything seem reasonable.

Just as the video conference ended, the Moroccan Minister of Culture in Rabat suddenly asked:

"Steven, how do you plan to distribute this ancient Roman treasure? Do you have any specific plans? We would love to hear about it."

Hearing this, Ye Tian couldn't help but chuckle.

It was as early as he expected, and sooner or later the Moroccans would raise the issue.

He pretended to think for a while, then smiled and said:

"Mr. Minister, I have two distribution plans here, but I can tell you, you can also think about it and decide which distribution plan to accept, or we can discuss it later.

The first allocation plan is based on the valuation of all the gold and silver treasures, antique cultural relics and works of art in this ancient Roman treasure, and the two sides will take half, which is very fair.

The second distribution plan, I only want those ancient Roman sculptures, and the rest of the gold and silver treasures, antique cultural relics and artworks, all belong to your Moroccan government, and those things will be better realized.

If I calculate the valuation and adopt the second distribution plan, I am the one who suffers. The value of those gold and silver treasures and antiques that you get is higher, so this plan is more favorable.

If you are interested in selling the antique cultural relics and works of art that have been assigned to you, such as the sword of the Governor of Mauritania, etc., I can also pay for some of them.

At present, all I can think of are these two distribution schemes, no matter which one you choose, your Moroccan government will not suffer, and in this regard, this choice should not be difficult to make.”

Hearing his words, Morocco's culture minister's eyes flashed with emotion immediately, and he was also quite excited.

Through his performance, Ye Tian instantly concluded,

Moroccans are more inclined to choose the second distribution plan, they prefer easy-to-realize gold and silver treasures and antiques and works of art, rather than ancient Roman sculptures.

And this is exactly what Ye Tian wants to see.

After thinking for a moment, the Minister of Culture of Morocco said:

"Mr. Steven, we have understood the two distribution plans you proposed, which sound reasonable and fully take into account the interests of both of us.

But what choice to make, we can't give you the final answer now, and after we discuss it, we will decide how to distribute this treasure"

"Okay, Mr. Minister, I'm waiting for your good news"

Ye Tian smiled and nodded.

Next, everyone chatted a few more times, then said goodnight to each other and ended the video conference call.

After the meeting, Ye Tian chatted with Professor Paul and the others for a few more words, and then let the security personnel drive the speedboat to send them back to the super yacht.

He himself stayed on the Dreadnought and did not leave immediately.

After the rest of the people left, Ye Tian called Jason and Mattis together, and said to them:

"Guys, tomorrow is the most important day of this exploratory operation. Everyone must cheer up and be vigilant to ensure that tomorrow's exploratory operation can be successfully completed."

"Steven, why do you say that? Did you find out where most of the pirate treasure is?"

Jason asked in surprise, David and Mattis were very curious.

"You can say the same!"

Ye Tian nodded lightly, but did not deny it.

Next, he began to explain why.

"On the pirate treasure map left by the black quasi-baron Roberts, it is very clearly recorded that the black quasi-baron hid all the pirate treasures on the west side of the undersea mountain.

When I came here to explore last year, I explored all four sides of this undersea mountain. It turned out that the cliff-like piece on the west side of the mountain was newly formed, and it was only a few hundred years old.

To be precise, the cliff was formed due to the Lisbon earthquake, and the pirate treasure of the black baron was originally hidden on the west side of the mountain, but the mountain collapsed!

According to my speculation, most of the black quasi-baron pirate treasures are under the cliff on the west side of the mountain. The last time I came here to explore, I also found something, but I didn't salvage it."

Hearing this, David and the others immediately lit up with excitement.

"Wow! It looks like we'll find the real black baron pirate treasure tomorrow, really looking forward to it!"

"I understand, the reason why you guys let everyone explore the other three sides of this undersea mountain is just to confuse others!"

Following Jason's words, everyone laughed.

After the laughter subsided, Ye Tian continued:

"Before we really find most of the black quasi-baron treasures, we must be vigilant, and we must not let anyone approach the west side of this undersea mountain under the cover of night.

Today, we found a lot of valuable gold and silver treasures and antiques in the depths of the sea, which may stimulate some guys to take risks and come to explore the pirate treasures in the dark."

"Don't worry, Steven, whether it's on the sea or below the sea, we'll be on guard and we'll never give those guys any chance."

Mattis nodded confidently.

Next, Ye Tian told Mattis and the others a few more words before leaving the Dreadnought with David on a speedboat.

Things were as he expected.

During the day, those valuable gold and silver treasures and antiques surfaced to the sea, which really made some guys' eyes blood red.

Driven by the greed of getting rich overnight, some guys did not hesitate to take great risks and use the cover of night to try to sneak into the operation area of ​​the joint exploration fleet.

Sadly, all they did was in vain.

Several of them, not only did not see the shadow of the pirate treasure, but almost lost their lives.

Whether they rowed a boat from the sea or dived from the bottom of the sea, they could not escape the net of the security personnel of the joint exploration fleet.

As soon as they approach the warning area, the strong searchlights mounted on several luxury yachts and Moroccan coast guard ships will shine over them shroud them in a beam of light that seems to be daytime, so that they have nowhere to escape. shape.

Those who try to dive over will be targeted by speedboats on the sea.

Next, the searchlights on the speedboat will shine on the bottom of the sea, and those beams of light are like radars, which can instantly lock their position, leaving them nowhere to hide.

If they're obsessed, it's time for small underwater robots to make their debut.

Although those underwater robots are small, they are very flexible, and each small underwater robot has a spear gun that seems to slam into the corner, and its lethality cannot be underestimated.

In the face of such a siege, those who tried to sneak into the warning area could only return in vain, returning to their respective ships in disgrace.

In one night, Matisse and the others discovered and drove away six groups of uninvited guests.

Fortunately, there was no substantial conflict, which disturbed everyone's rest.

Soon, the night will pass.
