Chapter 130 Opening Blind Boxes at the Air Force Base
The following day, north of Los Angeles, in the Godot Mountains.
The convoy passed through dense, green forests and arrived at a military site with a distinctly historical feel.
While the crew was setting up the cameras, the group of people wandered around in small groups.
Judging from the remaining military markings at the scene, this should be an air force base from World War II.
In addition to the most basic hangars, runways, fuel depots, and aprons, you can even see air-raid shelters that are partially buried underground.
On the concrete wall of the air-raid shelter, there are two faded slogans: "For the Motherland! For Freedom!"
And "bomb the Japanese back to the Stone Age".
Apart from these, there are no modern facilities such as control towers, radar, or flight control rooms.
At that time, pilots relied more on visual observation of landmarks to determine direction, and at most used radio for assistance.
That's about all we could see. About half an hour later, the production team announced that filming would officially begin.
The host was still Grace, who led everyone to the outside of a closed hangar and began her opening remarks as usual: "Everybody, welcome to the 'Warehouse Treasure Hunt' challenge season. I'm your old friend Jewelry Sister, the woman who knows the most about jewelry in the world. Today, I will lead you to open the door to wealth."
"This season is co-sponsored by Amazon and eBay."
"Choose Amazon for your shopping needs. It's a new starting point for global trade, offering health and peace of mind, and hassle-free returns and exchanges. It's your best shopping platform."
"Find your unwanted items on eBay! Find amazing deals and bargains on eBay. Buy and sell with ease and enjoy great value. Find what you love on eBay!"
"OK, please, our big spenders, make your exit at lightning speed." After reciting the closing remarks in one breath, Grace, who had changed into a bright pink tracksuit, continued, "Today we have come to the Attenborough Air Base, hidden in the Godot Mountains. According to the information I have, this military base was built in 1930 and was mainly responsible for logistical support and airdrop missions. It played an important role in the Pacific theater."
"Now, the dust of history has settled, and the valiant veterans have passed away. To breathe new life into it, the management has leased it to those in need. However, the new owner of this hangar behind me is imprisoned for tax evasion and owes six months' rent."
"Now, ownership is about to be transferred to all the treasure hunters."
In addition, its value increases further due to its association with famous battles, such as the Normandy landings and Pacific theater supply operations.
Aside from military rations, compressed biscuits and chocolate are definitely not worth much, while a can of luncheon meat can easily sell for tens of dollars.
So it seems that the only things left with value are those magazines and comics.
With that in mind, Ma Jieke decided to participate in the bidding.
