This flea market is no different from the flea markets that Yang Jing has seen, they are mainly second-hand and second-hand goods, but occasionally you can see one or two stalls selling antique art, but most of them are some antique artworks of low value.
In this relatively pure flea market, it is not so easy to find high-value antique art.
But here, you can see a lot of local art.
For example, Yang Jing saw a lot of cowboy equipment in a stall, such as saddles, water reins, bridles, riding boots, spurs, stirrups and other horse harnesses; There are also cowboy clothes, cowboy hats, lassoes, horsewhips and other common tools used by western cowboys; Of course, there are also the must-have weapons of those horse boys in Westerns.
For example, the Schofield revolver, which is hinged and automatically ejects when the bullet case is broken, is the best choice for fast gunners.
In almost every western movie, the main character's weapon is this revolver.
Of course, the must-have weapon for the sheriffs in Westerns is also indispensable, the Colt Army single-action revolver.
This kind of fixed magazine is divided into cavalry type and artillery type.
This gun is even more hanging, it has 1000 appearances in every western movie, is a sheriff's favorite, and Billy the Kid's bedside weapon!
Although this gun is single-acting, Billy the Kid can use it against a gang of double-action sheriffs!
The cavalry type is used for long-range attacks on horses, and the artillery type is used for sneak attacks and assassinations.
The difference between the cavalry type and the artillery type is that the cavalry type is long and the artillery type is short.
Yang Jing likes this gun very much, but although he holds a green card, he has not applied for a gun license, so even if he is ready to collect this kind of gun, he can't buy it.
Chris on the side smiled and whispered: "Boss, the harness here is good, and the weapons can only be said to be a job."
If you want a better cowboy weapon, get a chance to go to my hometown, and I'll introduce you to a legendary cowboy.
He has so many good things there that even when Hollywood makes Westerns, many theater managers will go to him to rent some equipment. ” Yang Jing asked in surprise, "Really?"
” Clark McCann, the big man next to him, said with a smile: "Boss, you don't have to doubt this, I can guarantee it."
Chris's hometown is in Pecos in West Texas, and there is indeed a legendary cowboy in his hometown, not only the Texas cowboys adore him, but almost the entire western cowboy also adores him, he is the famous old Billy!
Christopher Billy, a legendary and great cowboy. ” Yang Jing shook his head a little dazedly, obviously, he didn't know about this cowboy.
However, Clark spoke a little louder just now, so that the stall owner heard it, and the owner was also very surprised and asked, "Young man, do you know old Billy?"
” Chris nodded very arrogantly and said, "Uncle Billy's ranch is next to my family's ranch, and the relationship between our two families is very good.
The first time I rode a horse as a child was at Uncle Billy's ranch. ” "Wow, you're so blessed.
My God, you actually live next door with my idol" The stall owner yearned for a face, he was in his sixties, and he was still like a star chaser.
Hearing what the stall owner said, Yang Jing smiled and said to Chris: "When the matter here is over, I think we should go to your hometown as a guest."
What do you guys think, guys?
” The remaining three bodyguards all waved their fists excitedly.
At this time, the fat man and Lin Dan, who had been fighting in the back, came over shoulder to shoulder, and seeing the four bodyguards so excited, Lin Dan whistled and asked, "Wow, did the two of us miss something good?"
” Chris smiled and said, "James, the boss said, when this matter is over, I will go to my hometown as a guest, and I will take Mr.
Christopher Billy with me." ” "Christopher Billy?"
Lin Dan was stunned for a moment, and then asked excitedly: "Is that the Christopher Billy who has won the National Rodeo Finals seven times in a row, single-handedly killed seven Mexican gray wolves, saved six travelers, and then single-handedly challenged the Mexican drug lord and was respected by all the western cowboys as Old Billy?"
” Chris snapped his fingers happily and said, "That's right, it's old Billy!"
” Lin Dan exclaimed excitedly: "Wow!
Cruel!
” It can be seen that Lin Dan seems to know this old Billy very well.
The stall owner looked at the men and said with a smile, "So, cowboys, do you need to buy something from Old John?"
I'll admit that I don't have as much stuff here as old Billy, but I built them little by little with my own hands, and I'm pretty famous in Beaumont.
Guys, I'll give you a discount if you guys want it. ” Yang Jing thought for a while, smiled and said, "Mr.
John, bring me six full sets of denim equipment, but it's a pity that I haven't applied for a gun license now, so I can't buy these guns of yours." ” Old John spread his hands regretfully, and then said happily: "Six sets?
No problem, Old John's harness will not disappoint you. ” The fat man on the side quit, pulled Yang Jing and asked, "I said Jing Gege, we are seven people, why do you only buy six sets of harnesses?"
” Before Yang Jing could speak, Lin Dan on the side said, "Cut, you still don't understand this?"
At your weight, I don't think any rancher would want to use his own horse to make you miserable."
"I¥" The two of them fought again Yang Jing didn't care about the two of them there, and said to Chris and the four of them: "I won't buy these things for the four of you, I'm going to take these things back and give them away."
But you can choose a few revolvers here, two each, which is a small gift from me. ” Chris smiled and thanked them, and began to pick out the revolvers.
As soon as Lin Dan and the fat man heard this, they immediately stopped arguing, and looked at Yang Jing with complaining eyes, the meaning is obvious, you are the eldest brother, why don't you buy a set for your brother?
Yang Jing waved his hand and said, "Don't look like this, the fat man is rich, Lin Dan, you are not bad for money, you two won't buy it yourself?"

I bought these things as gifts, and if you two like them, you can buy them yourself, don't be like a grande all day long. ” As soon as they heard that they were going to pay for their own money, the two of them immediately stopped saying a word, and walked towards other places with their shoulders hooked.
Six full sets of harnesses, each priced at $2,200, and John Sr. discounted it at $1,800 each.
This price is really not cheap if it is placed in China, but compared with the harness made of artificial leather in China, this kind of harness made of pure cowhide and pure handmade is really not expensive, and the craftsmanship of Old John is very good, and these harnesses made can be called works of art.
Six sets of harness are more than $10,000 in total, and Chris and the others each picked two revolvers, and these eight guns are expensive, even if they are discounted, the average price of each gun is as high as $3,500.
You know, in a gun shop, a brand new Beretta 92 is only five or six hundred dollars.
However, given that these revolvers are decades old and can be considered antiques, the price is also fair.
Counting the harness, a total of 39,000 US dollars, Yang Jing paid the money very happily, and continued to walk towards the market with four bodyguards amid Old John's thanks.
The six sets of harnesses, Old John will send them directly to Yang Jing's place of residence later, and it is obviously not a good idea to take six sets of harness to the market here.
Most of the market is second-hand goods, such as second-hand furniture, second-hand appliances, second-hand tools and even second-hand vehicles, which can be seen in this flea market.
Americans' love for second-hand goods is well known all over the world, and they don't treat second-hand goods as garbage at all, but are very good at using second-hand goods.
In Huaxia, this is far from the same.
The second-hand household appliances and second-hand furniture that are not used by Chinese people will eventually be pulled to the scrap collection station, but in the United States, the utilization rate of second-hand goods is still very high.
The fat man and Lin Dan didn't know where they had gone for a long time, and Yang Jing didn't bother to care about them, just took four bodyguards to wander around the market along the flow of people, and bought what they liked when they saw it.
It didn't take long for the five of them to have a lot of bits and pieces hanging on them.
Cowboy hats, deerskin gloves, animal teeth and bone ornaments, if it weren't for Chris, the four of them would have been transformed into a typical western cowboy in a moment.
Of course, there is no shortage of old books and old publications sold in this flea market, Yang Jing squatted down in front of a stall selling old books and old publications, and casually pulled it twice and found that there was nothing good and was about to stand up and leave, but his eyes inadvertently swept over the corner of this stall, and he was immediately attracted.
"Please, bring that parchment map."
The boss took the very shabby sheepskin map, and Yang Jing's heart suddenly moved.
In the storage space lies a broken parchment map, which Yang Jing received from a stall owner when he visited the Vauver flea market in Paris, and after the identification of the Holy Ring, the mutilated map turned out to be a pirate navigation chart, and it was hand-drawn by a pirate named Boardman in the 16th century.
And the mutilated parchment map in front of him, no matter how Yang Jing looks at it, it looks like another mutilated island navigation chart, because below the navigation map he once received, that is, close to the Bermuda Islands, the map shows a kind of torn ripples, and above, almost half of Greenland's location, which is also torn.
And the top of the nautical chart in front of me seems to be able to connect with the bottom of another nautical chart.
No matter how Yang Jing looked, he felt that these two incomplete nautical charts could be connected, and the intuition that came from his heart was also very strong, so he immediately asked: "How much does this nautical chart sell?"
