Starting My Treasure Hunting In England

"The flag of Ernst Thälmann's vanguard organization is a rare good thing. Because after the reunification of Germany, almost all of these things were destroyed by the current federal government."

As expected of a professional who has worked in this industry all his life, Old Pierce quickly recognized what this flag was after carefully examining it.

"How much is this thing worth?" Pierce, who was rummaging through boxes and cabinets looking for something on the other side of the corridor just now, also came over. "At least it should be worth more than those promotional signs or red and blue scarves."

"I know money is important, but you can't just think about money in this business." After hearing Pierce's question, the elder Pierce stared at his son with a serious face and said.

“You have to learn to draw from the cultural heritage of these objects and also learn to respect them so that they give back to you.”

After giving his son a few simple words of instruction, several people began to search around. Sure enough, they found a dozen blue or red flags from the surrounding paper bags and boxes.

"This should be the flag belonging to Ernst Thälmann's Pioneer Organization or the German Free Youth League. Several of them are very rare regional flags."

Old Pierce unfolded the flags side by side and introduced at the same time. "As far as I know, apart from a Cold War-themed museum in Berlin, there is no such flag anywhere else."

"But this flag is a little strange." Old Pierce said, unfurling the largest of these flags, which looked like a blue flag the size of a single bed sheet.

"I have never seen a flag like this. Lawrence, can you help me find out what is written on this flag?"

"The German word means Pioneer Armored Brigade." At this point, Liang En frowned. "This is not right. The military's flags at that time had uniform regulations, and this flag completely does not comply with the regulations."

"Look, that's the importance of being prepared. Because a lot of times, our gains come from those places that are different."

At this time, old Pierce first educated his son, and then pointed to the flag and said. "What is written on this flag is correct. Such an armored brigade did exist in East Germany at that time, but it was not a regular army."

"How is that possible?" Pierce exclaimed in a low voice at this time, "This is an armored brigade. How can there be an armored brigade in the world that is not a regular army-"

"Wait, I seem to have thought of something." At this time, Liang En suddenly recalled some information he had collected from the Internet before coming.

"When the East German Ernst Thalmann Pioneer organized children's military training, there seemed to be a small tank, and it looked very similar to a real tank-"

"That's right, in 1978. In order to cater to the policy of military education for young children at that time, East Germany prepared a batch of pocket tanks specially manufactured for children by the famous satellite car manufacturer at the time."

"This tank has a maximum traveling speed of 15 kilometers per hour, is made of metal and plastic, and uses the engine of a satellite car. At the same time, this pioneer armored brigade also began operations under the supervision of the former East German Ministry of State Security."

"However, these tanks only operated for about 20 years. When the Cold War ended, this kind of military training for children was cancelled. At the same time, all the items left by the pioneer tank brigade were destroyed."

As soon as Old Pierce finished speaking, Liang En immediately continued. "In other words, this flag representing the Pioneer Tank Brigade should be destroyed."

"Theory is theory, but reality is practice." Old Pierce said after folding the flag carefully.

"During the merger of Germany and Germany in the early 1990s, everyone had a lot of things to do. Therefore, under those circumstances, it is completely understandable that some non-important departments have missed graduations."

"But now these things belong to us." Pierce said excitedly while helping to put away the flags. "They would never have imagined that these things they destroyed as rubbish 20 years ago would now become treasures."

After sorting and placing all these precious items, they continued to clean up the iron shelves in front of the warehouse.

Just as they had guessed before, the person who stored these things had a plan before placing them. Therefore, what is placed on the iron shelves are some textiles, or wooden propaganda boards and other things with obvious marks of the times.

"What's going on at the door?" Just after sorting the contents of the last oil paper bag on the iron shelf, loud yelling and the sound of smashing various things began to be heard not far away.

It happened that Pierce had just returned from throwing away the garbage at this time, so Liang En asked what happened outside.

"The people who spent a lot of money to take pictures of the warehouse containing the weapon boxes suffered a heavy loss." Pierce showed a gloating smile.

"They had just finished cleaning up and were getting ready to take a good look at their loot, and when they opened the weapons boxes, they discovered that all the boxes were empty."

"This is normal. After all, compared to the things we are looking for now, weapons must have been the most concerned object by both parties back then." Old Pierce pushed up his glasses and said, "So it is not strange that the firearms inside were taken away. .”

Although in theory it is a very normal situation that all the gun boxes are empty, in fact, for the person who paid more than 60,000 euros to buy the warehouse, this is definitely the worst news among bad news.

It's no wonder that during the ten minutes that Liang En and the others rested, the sounds of yelling, yelling, and throwing things from outside didn't stop.

But this naturally had nothing to do with Liang En and the others. After resting for nearly 20 minutes and eating something, they began to sort out the things covered by canvas behind the shelves.

"I think the person who hid these things was probably the official who was in charge of Ernst Thalmann's Pioneer Organization, and was specifically responsible for the Pioneer Armored Brigade."

After opening a box and finding that it was all filled with tank soldier uniforms one size smaller, Liang En said loudly to the Murphys and his son around him.

"Indeed, it is really difficult for ordinary people to put these things together in that chaotic era." Old Pierce nodded with approval, and then forcefully pried open a dusty box.

"Engine, there is actually an engine from a satellite car here."

Old Pierce's shout attracted the two young men. Liang En and Pierce quickly came to the box, and then looked at the engine that was fixed in the center of the box and sealed with butter.

"So small-" Liang En had his own car in his two lifetimes, and there was more than one, so he saw a lot of the car's engine.

But the engine that appeared in front of him now was a bit too small. It didn't look as big as the engines of some high-horsepower motorcycles.

"This thing is a two-cylinder two-stroke with only 26 horsepower. From a certain point of view, it has no advantages except being cheap." Old Pierce shrugged.

"There was a joke circulating here back then. Do you want the satellite car to run more than 100 kilometers per hour? Push it off the cliff."
