This flea market is no different from those flea markets Yang Jing has seen. They are mainly second-hand goods, but occasionally you can see one or two stalls selling antique works of art, but most of them are antique works of low value.

In this relatively pure flea market, it is not so easy to find high-value antique works of art.

But here, you can see many works of art with local characteristics.

For example, Yang Jing saw a lot of cowboy equipment at a booth, including saddle, water rein, bridle, riding boots, spurs, stirrups and other harness; There are also commonly used tools for Western cowboys, such as jeans, cowboy hats, Lasso, horsewhip and so on; Of course, there is no shortage of the necessary weapons for those horses in western films.

For example, Scofield revolver, which is hinged and automatically ejects when the cartridge case is broken, is the best choice for fast shooters. In almost every western film, the protagonist's weapon is this kind of revolver.

Of course, there is also a necessary weapon for sheriffs in Westerns, colt army single action revolver.

This kind of fixed magazine is divided into cavalry type and artillery type. This kind of gun is more hanging. Its appearance rate in each western film is 1000%. It is the sheriff's favorite and Billy boy's bedside weapon! Although the gun is single acting, Billy boy can use it against a group of sheriffs with double acting!

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 kind of 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 smiled and whispered, "boss, the horse harness here is good, and the weapons can only be said to help. If you want better cowboy weapons and have the opportunity to go to my hometown, I will introduce you to a legendary cowboy. There are many good things there. Even when Hollywood makes western movies, many drama operators will rent some equipment from him."

Yang Jing asked in surprise, "really?"

The big man next to Clark McCann smiled and said: "Boss, you don't have to doubt that. I can guarantee that Chris's hometown is Pecos in western Texas. There is indeed a legendary cowboy in his hometown. Not only the cowboys in Texas admire him, but almost the cowboys in the West also admire him. He is the famous old Billy! Christopher Billy, a legendary and great cowboy."

Yang Jing shook his head in a daze. Obviously, he didn't know the cowboy.

However, Clark spoke louder just now, which was heard by the boss of the booth. The boss was also very surprised and asked, "young man, do you know old Billy?"

Chris nodded proudly and said, "Uncle Billy's ranch is next to my ranch. Our two families have a very good relationship. The first time I rode a horse when I was a child was in Uncle Billy's ranch."

"Wow, you're so happy. My God, you live next door to my idol..." the stall owner looks forward to people in their 60s and looks like a Star chaser.

Hearing what the stall owners said, Yang Jing smiled and said to Chris, "when things are over here, I think we should go to your hometown for a visit. What do you think, guys?"

The remaining three bodyguards waved their fists excitedly.

At this time, the fat man who had enough fighting in the back came over with Lin Dan. Seeing that the four bodyguards were so excited, Lin Dan whistled and asked, "Wow, did we miss anything?"

Chris smiled and said, "James, the boss said that when things are over here, he will visit my hometown and put Mr. Christopher Billy on the table."

"Christopher Billy?" lindane was stunned and asked excitedly: "Is that Christopher Billy who once won the championship of the national Rodeo finals seven times in a row, killed seven Mexican gray wolves alone, saved six travelers, and then fought the Mexican drug lord alone, which is respected as old Billy by all western cowboys?"

Chris snapped his fingers happily and said, "yes, it's this old Billy!"

Lin Dan screamed excitedly, "Wow! Cool!"

It can be seen that lindane seems to know the old Billy very well.

The stall owner looked at these people and said with a smile, "so, cowboys, do you need to buy something from old John? I admit that my things here are not as good as old Billy's, but these horses are made by me and are quite famous in Beaumont. Guys, I'll give you a discount if you want."

Yang Jing thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Mr. John, give me six complete sets of cowboy equipment. It's a pity that I haven't applied for a gun license and can't buy your guns."

Old John spread his hands regretfully and said happily, "six sets? No problem. Old John's harness will never disappoint you."

The fat man on one side quit and pulled Yang Jing and asked, "I said Jing Ge, we are seven people. Why do you only buy six sets of harness?"

Before Yang Jing spoke, Lin Dan said, "cut, I don't understand this? Given your weight, it's estimated that no rancher is willing to spoil your horse..."

"I @# ¥%..." the two fought again

Yang Jing didn't care where they were joking and said to Chris and the four of them, "I won't buy these things for the four of you. I'll take them back as gifts. But you can choose some revolvers here, two for each. It's a small gift for you."

Chris smiled and thanked them and began to pick up the revolvers. As soon as Lin Dan and the fat man heard this, they stopped bickering and looked at Yang Jing with sad eyes. It was obvious that you were the eldest brother. Why didn't you buy one for your brother?

Yang Jing waved his hand and said, "you two don't look like this. Fat man has money, and Lin Dan doesn't need money. You two won't buy them by yourself? I buy these things back as gifts. If you like them, you can buy them by yourself. Don't be like a grandstand all day."

As soon as they heard that they wanted to pay for themselves, they immediately stopped talking and walked towards other places.

The price of six complete sets of harness is $2200 each. Old John gave a discount of $1800 each.

It's not cheap to put this price in China, but compared with those horse harnesses made of artificial leather in China, this kind of horse harness made of pure cow leather and pure handmade is really not expensive. Old John's craftsmanship is very good, and these horse harnesses can be called works of art.

The six sets of harness cost more than $10000. Chris and they each chose two revolvers. These eight guns are expensive. Even after the discount, the average price of each gun is as high as $3500.

You know, in the gun shop, a brand-new Beretta m92 is only $500 or $600.

However, since these revolvers have a history of decades and can be regarded as antiques, the price is also reasonable.

Including the harness, the total was $39000. Yang Jing happily paid the money and continued to walk to the market with four bodyguards in the voice of old John's thanks.

Old John will then send the six sets of harness directly to Yang Jing's place. It is obviously not a good idea to take the six sets of harness to the market here.

Most of the markets are second-hand goods, such as second-hand furniture, second-hand electrical 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. They don't treat second-hand goods as garbage at all, but are very good at using second-hand goods. In China, this is far from enough. The second-hand household appliances and second-hand furniture that are not used by Chinese people will eventually be pulled to the waste purchase 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 to drill for a long time. Yang Jing didn't bother to care about them. He just wandered around the market with four bodyguards along the flow of people. When he saw what he liked, he bought it. It didn't take long for five people to hang a lot of odds and ends. Cowboy hats, deerskin gloves, animal teeth and bones... If Chris hadn't all come out in suits, they would become a typical Western Cowboy in a moment.

Of course, there are also many people selling old books and publications in this flea market. Yang Jing squatted down in front of a stall selling old books and publications, pulled it casually and found that there was nothing good and was about to stand up and leave. As a result, her sight inadvertently swept through a corner of the stall and was immediately attracted.

"Please bring that sheepskin map."

The boss took the shabby sheepskin map, and Yang Jing was moved.

In the storage space, there is also an incomplete sheepskin map, which Yang Jing received from a stall owner when she was visiting the Wangfu flea market in Paris. After the identification of the holy ring, the incomplete map is actually a pirate nautical chart, and it was hand drawn by a pirate named Bodman in the 16th century.

In front of the incomplete sheepskin map, Yang Jing looked like another incomplete Island nautical chart, because the lower part of the nautical chart he had received, that is, the position close to Bermuda, the map showed a torn ripple, and above, almost half of Greenland was also torn.

The top of this chart seems to be connected with the bottom of another chart.

Yang Jing felt that the two incomplete charts could be connected, and the intuition from his heart was very strong, so he immediately asked, "how much does this chart cost?"
