After entering the hall, Ye Tian did not immediately walk to the two lighted rooms on the east side, but walked straight to the end of the south side of the hall.

He was going to check the crates first to see if his guess was correct.

Are those boxes used for rifles, and are there antique flintlock rifles in them?

Seeing his actions, several guys in front of the surveillance screen couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded!

After a moment's pause, Matisse immediately asked curiously:

"Steven, what are you doing here, how did you get to the south side of the hall?"

Ye Tian did not hide it, but told the truth.

"I'm going to see what's in those boxes, and if that's right, there's probably a lot of antique guns there, and if so, that's a lot of money!"

"I see, I hope it is as you wish!"

Mattis replied and said nothing.

As he spoke, Ye Tian had already walked in front of the pile of crates.

Sure enough!

These were wooden boxes for rifles, about two meters long and about fifty centimeters wide, made of oak planks, all black-painted, sturdy and rugged!

Although more than 200 years have passed, the paint has fallen off a lot, but it does not affect Ye Tian's recognition of these text information!

The black box clearly states the year of manufacture, the name of the goods contained in the box, and the owner of the box.

"1783, Pennsylvania Rifles, Society of the Children of Liberty!"

These are the three most important pieces of information revealed by the text on the chest.

1783 was the year of the end of the American Revolutionary War, and the Pennsylvania rifle was another name for the Kentucky Long Rifle, indicating that these rifles were produced in Pennsylvania!

As for the Sons of Liberty Association, it is even more famous, and the American Revolutionary War can be said to be the first to start the 'Sons of Liberty Association'.

The equestrian statue on the ground, Paul Rivera, is a member of the Sons of Liberty.

The Old North Church was one of the strongholds of the Sons of Liberty before and during the war.

Seeing these words, Ye Tian instantly understood the origin of these antique firearms and why they appeared in this underground palace.

Before the end of the Revolutionary War, the Sons of Liberty ordered the rifles and shipped them from Pennsylvania to Boston, where they were secretly kept in an underground warehouse for distribution to soldiers in the Continental Army.

But before these weapons could be distributed, the war was over, and these weapons remained here ever since, becoming a stockpile at the bottom of the box.

For more than 200 years, these weapons have been sleeping here, and over time they have gone from murderous weapons to antique firearms.

It wasn't until Thompson's guy stumbled upon this place, and thirty years later, he tracked it down again, that these weapons ushered in the opportunity to see the light of day!

This conjecture does not need to be confirmed at all, there is no doubt about it!

When he walked within twenty meters of these boxes, the dazzling red light that caught Ye Tian's eyes already explained everything.

From the intensity of the light, he instantly determined the age of the manufacture of these weapons!

But when he got closer, he immediately turned on the perspective and looked at the pile of crates full of antique firearms, and he might find something surprising!

As far as the eye can see, at a glance!

His gaze had penetrated the crates in an instant, and he could see clearly what was going on inside them.

Brand-new flintlock rifles wrapped in oilcloth were lying quietly in crates, emitting a faint cold light.

There are nine guns in each box, stacked in three layers, neatly and neatly, and the total number is almost a thousand guns, which is quite an astonishing number!

Each gun in the case was greased, and although it had dried up, the marks were clearly visible, and the brass parts showed no signs of rust, and were still shiny and shiny, as good as new.

Obviously, this is a batch of Kentucky spears that have never been used, and they are in good condition, which should be considered relatively rare antique firearms with a certain market value!

In addition to the Kentucky spear, there are also the necessary accessory boxes for each gun, as well as the unusually sharp bayonet that braves the cold light, and all the accessories are the same, very complete!

The existence of these original accessories will undoubtedly greatly enhance the value of these antique firearms.

And there are not only Kentucky spears here, but also another famous flint rifle of the same era.

That is the Charleville infantry gun from France, an improved version of 1766, which is a rare antique firearm, which is very popular in the antique firearms market and is worth a lot of money.

These improved Charleville infantry guns are also brand new firearms, complete with accessories, well-preserved, and highly collectible!

During the American Revolution, France was a staunch ally of the Americans, not only providing the Continental Army with large quantities of weapons and ammunition, but also sending troops to directly participate in the war.

The Marquis de Lafayette was one of the most famous representatives! Not only did he build his own warships and recruit men to fight in the American Revolutionary War, but he also became a high-ranking officer of the Continental Army, and became the commander of the Washington Avant-Garde.

Later, Lafayette returned to France and personally persuaded the French king to take 6,000 French soldiers to fight in the United States until the United States became independent!

He made great contributions to American independence and became a lifelong friend of many of America's founding fathers.

In honor of the Marquis de Lafayette, Washington, New York, Boston and other large cities have an avenue named 'Lafayette Boulevard', second only to the city's main thoroughfare.

Because of the strong alliance between France and the United States in times of war, it is not surprising that a brand new flintlock rifle from France appeared here!

Looking at these antique flint guns, Ye Tian's eyes were quite hot, but he was not too excited.

However, when his gaze continued to explore deeply, he suddenly found a rare treasure, which immediately made him a little itchy.

In the center of this pile of crates, there was a box with Charleville's infantry guns, ordinary, looking no different from other crates.

But in Ye Tian's eyes, he could see the difference in this box at a glance!

Like all crates, this one glows a dazzling red light, revealing that the contents are dated from the mid-to-late 18th century, with no error!

What is unique is that the halo attached to the exterior of this crate is fully twice as large as other crates, reaching as many as 12 layers, which is very charming and full of temptation!

What this means, Ye Tian couldn't be clearer!

A work of art of great value, and two of them, right in this crate!

Perspective! What are you waiting for?

The line of sight penetrates through the sturdy oak plank, and the inside of the box can be seen clearly in an instant!

The first thing that caught Ye Tian's eye was the three French Charleville infantry guns that were staggered, as well as the complete accessories that matched them, which were not lacking.

But these three rifles were no different from the other Charleville infantry guns here, and they were not the targets that made Ye Tian's heart excited.

Clearly, there's something else going on in this crate.

The perspective continues, and the secret is immediately revealed.

His gaze passed through the two layers of six Charleville infantry guns, as well as the tarpaulin that wrapped the rifles, and at the bottom of the crate, Ye Tian saw two delicate black walnut boxes.

The moment he saw these two black walnut boxes, Ye Tian's eyes immediately flashed with surprise, and he almost cheered, but he couldn't help it!

In a blink of an eye, he understood what was in the box, and the next scene he saw accurately confirmed his judgment.

Looking through the solid black walnut, I immediately saw a pair of firing pistols lying quietly in the box, elegant and atmospheric, but also emitting a deadly cold light!

The two pistols are of the same type, the body is made of crimson cherry wood, the streamlined grip gives a very coordinated feeling, and the entire body is oiled to make it look very bright.

With the exception of the primer plate and the crosshair, which are made of brass, all the rest of the metal pieces are made of sterling silver and are shiny!

This is the 1748 Hawkins flintlock pistol from England, the most famous free-fire pistol of the Revolutionary War, which was used by Washington and is famous in American history!

Of course, these two pistols could not have been used by Washington.

The Hawkins flintlock pistol he had used, which was now in a Pennsylvania museum, was under heavy security, and it couldn't have been here!

If the pistol itself is concerned, the two in front of me are much more exquisite than the one in Washington, and it can be said that it is a work of art in the pistol, which is very rare!

And the dozen or so layers of charming halos on the bodies of these two pistols also accurately illustrate this.

There is no doubt that these are two flintlock pistols crafted and handcrafted by the top gunsmiths, extremely rare antique firearms!

Their market value is equally extraordinary! With the current market price, this pair of antique pistols would have almost no problem surpassing a million dollars if they appeared at auction.

The best reference for these two pistols is the Hawkins flintlock pistol used by Washington!

That pistol was once circulating in the antique market for a while, and the price was as high as $2 million, but that was already the price N years ago, and God knows how much it is worth now, it must be sky-high!

And the reason why that pistol was withdrawn from the circulation market was the result of the intervention of the US government, which took back that pistol in the name of 'the most important weapon in the history of the United States'!

As pistols of the same type, these two Hawkins flintlock pistols, although not so historically significant, are no less to be underestimated, not to mention that this is a pair of pistols, and even more exquisite!

Therefore, once these two pistols appear on the market, they will definitely cause a shock in the field of antique firearms collection!

In addition to being works of art, these two pistols are also murderous weapons, which is their nature!

They were never fired, and under the protection of the gun oil and tarpaulin, all parts of the pistol were intact and almost as good as new.

As long as they are carefully cleaned and maintained, these two 200-year-old guns will be rejuvenated immediately, and once they are loaded with gunpowder and bullets, their power will definitely not be diminished!

Looking at these two extremely exquisite antique pistols, Ye Tian's eyes couldn't help but become more and more intense, and he was secretly sighing in his heart.

"Where is this still a weapon used on the battlefield, it is simply the top art in the pistol, it is so beautiful!"

Although he liked these two pistols very much, and his heart itched when he looked at them, Ye Tian didn't think about turning these two guns out immediately, and then quietly taking them away!

It's not the time yet, but there will be opportunities in the future!

Thirty years have passed, and Thompson has not found these two rare antique pistols, so it is impossible for him to find these two treasures in the future!

"These two beautiful and charming 1748 Hawkins will definitely belong to buddies in the future, and their best destination is to become buddies' private collections"

Ye Tian continued to admire the two pistols for a while, and then looked away and looked at the other boxes.
