Yang Yong pouted his lips in disdain and said angrily, "I'd rather be pulled into slices than gold or diamonds. We've been out for more than 20 days with no gains. How can we both raise our heads when we see Adam? What's the use of returning those lands? It's still real money."

Seeing that Yang Yong was in such a low mood, Smith didn't know how to persuade him. He scratched his head and smirked more seriously. He helped Yang Yong to look through the old things in the room to see if he could find some valuable items, or let Yang Yong go. Yong is in a better mood.

Seeing that Smith was so diligently helping him to turn over those meaningless shoes, Yang Yong was still very moved. He sighed, pulled up his mask and began to turn over this classical writing desk made of mahogany beside him. .

  This classical writing desk made of mahogany has three drawers on it, and there are independent cabinets next to it. All the cabinets and drawers are not locked, but there are copper lock noses on them to lock the writing desk.

I rummaged through the first drawer, it was full of some high-grade black leather notebooks, I took it out at random and found that these were all ledgers, and the records were very detailed. Since 1840, I have recorded the owner of this house and the points of family life. Bit by bit, the price of everything you buy.

  This ledger is very thick, about two centimeters long, and the drawers are filled with identical books, more than 20 books in total. It seems that this is the price change recorded by the owner of this house for hundreds of years? It is also a great achievement to be able to hold on to the ledger of several generations of family members for more than 100 years. This ledger can be sold for at least thousands of dollars, which is more or less a windfall. With this ledger, Yang Yong’s income The depressed mood has improved, and he turned over the writing desk in front of him with great interest. Since the ledger has appeared, there should be more things.

The drawer in the center of the writing desk was opened and some stationery was piled up, including some old pens, ink bottles, and some small scissors, small paper cutters and other tools. These **** piles were full, and Yang Yong was even in those old pens. Found two Parker pens that are over 100 years old, which is also a relatively good thing.

The third drawer is filled with some old photos, most of them in black and white. From the inside, you can see the glory of the family in the past. What is unexpected is the history of the entire family shown in the old photos. Most of the scenes that appeared were scenes of some soldiers, including scenes of gunpowder smoke on the battlefield. The back of the photo was marked with details such as the time, place, and person of the photo.

   What surprised Yang Yong the most was that this family was actually a military family. Since 1876, how many members of the owner family of this house joined the army in each generation? He has experienced all the wars in the United States, big and small, and even the last owner of the house actually participated in World War II and made military exploits in the European battlefield.

It is no exaggeration to say that the entire family is a military family. Unfortunately, this military family that has made great contributions to the United States has no heirs. After the last owner died three years ago, the entire family dispute disappeared, and the residence of his family was reclaimed and sold by the US government. It's a great irony to give it to Yang Yong. It's really chilling for such a family that has been served by the US government for generations to vanish like this, leaving no trace behind.

These old photos are available in large and small sizes. Most of them are black and white photos that are well preserved. These old photos reflect the honor history of a family. Although the family has no descendants, Yang Yong decided to keep these old photos. , this is a historical testimony, this is a strong proof of a family honor history.

If Yang Yong completes the renovation of the 0.3-acre manor, and hangs these old photos in the photos, it proves how glorious the family history of the owner of this manor is. It is a selling point, at least it can commemorate Some old military fans come here to visit and live, so the room rate they earn will definitely increase.

Hundreds of years of old photos are already very broken. If you grab these old photos with a little force, they will only fall off the slag, so Yang Yong carefully found a small basket nearby, knocked off the dust and put these old photos into a small basket. Keep it in the basket and keep it at the entrance of the house without forgetting to take these things with you. Of course, there are more than 20 account books from the first half of the year in the basket together.

After the three drawers were searched, the entire writing desk was left with two small cabinets that were not rummaged through. Yang Yong took the lead in opening the small cabinet on the left. Inside was a round bag made of plain cloth, which contained a lot of things, but this one was protected against I weighed the cloth bag in my hand and found that it was very light and the bag contained paper products.

Yang Yong put the bag on the top of the writing desk, and then opened it. What caught his eye were some letters tied together in bundles. These letters were well preserved, and even the stamp of the post office on them was clearly visible. These letters were bundled into a bundle. Yes, there are more than 100 letters in each bundle, large and small in all color envelopes.

But these letters were pinned together and very neat. Yang Yong took out a letter from the cloth bag, took off the rubber cover, and looked at it casually, holding hundreds of large letters in his hand. , but most of them are the product of correspondence more than ten years ago, and the stamps above are some newer and more common stamps.

Envelopes are also the most common white envelopes. The contents of the letters are all kinds of strange things. Most of them are the contents of correspondence between the original owner of the house and his old comrades. Most of the contents in the letters are in the form of memoirs, and there are also greetings to each other. How is life? When to meet, etc., there is nothing to be concerned about.

   After a general look, the letters in his hand were re-sized and stacked, and they were fixed to one side with a rubber holster. Then, I rummaged through some letters that seemed to be relatively old to see if there were any other findings. Don't say it, really let Yang Yong find something special.

The original owner of the house was a military family. No matter what he did, he was very organized. These letters were stacked together and had labels on them. They all lived in the era of these letters. Most of them took about 20 years to form a large bundle of letter folders. together.

The first few bundles Yang Yong saw were the hardware formed in recent decades. On average, a large bundle was formed in 20 years. The more excited Yang Yong was, the more excited he was. Yang Yong saw the letters from World War II, and then there was World War I. The letters of 80 years or even hundreds of years are very well preserved, there is no mold or hair, and there is no evidence of moth-eaten.

What excites Yang Yong the most is that the stamps on the letters are well preserved and stick to the envelopes securely. Some colored stamps have not faded, but remain as they are. The stamps on these hardware are priceless. The small pieces of paper, especially some letters sent back to the United States from the European battlefields during World War I and World War II, have a huge number of stamps, and every country has them.

British, French, Italian, Belgian, and Dutch stamps are in very good condition. The only downside is that these letters are all used, and the stamps are covered with the post offices of each country. covered chapter.
