Inherit For Three Thousand Years - Chapter 994

From the appearance point of view, the National Treasury of China is a two-storey building with a height of only 13 meters above the ground, and there are two safes below the ground. And its internal use area is not large. Compared with other large-scale treasuries, the national treasury of China is even a bit shabby.

However, as an old building from the 1930s, its materials are absolutely first-class solid: its main building is composed of 470 cubic meters of granite, all of which come from the best North Carolina in the country. Granite quarry in Nazhou; in order to strengthen the building, 680 tons of steel bars and 610 tons of structural steel were installed in the walls and pillars, and the outer walls were reinforced with concrete and granite.

Especially in the underground part of the building, in order to prevent thieves from entering from the underground, the periphery of the main building is also completely wrapped by reinforced concrete.

Seeing the vault wrapped in reinforced concrete, Xiao Yao smiled slightly. After all, it was a national treasury, and it really didn’t leave any safety hazards.

Due to the local geographical environment, the ground of this building is not difficult to excavate granite, which makes the vault lack a natural barrier. If a thief digs a hole from the ground, it is theoretically possible to enter the vault without knowing it.

In order to plug this loophole, the designer used steel plates, steel I-beams and steel columns to create a state-of-the-art and strong vault, and wrapped it with reinforced concrete with a thickness of 64 cm. In this way, even if someone wants to enter the vault from the underground, it is impossible.

In addition to this large-scale reinforced concrete project, the security of the National Treasury really leaves no loopholes.

Xiao Yao used his spiritual sense to detect that the thickness of the safe door of the vault reached 53 cm, weighed 18 tons, and did not have any electronic assistance. This should be a precaution against a power outage at a critical moment.

But this hurts the vault staff, because it means that they have to manually open the huge door, which is not a simple task, time-consuming and laborious.

It is a huge project to open this door. There are many security and alarm devices outside the vault, and a time lock is installed.

If you want to open this door, before opening, the managers need to enter an independent random password at the same time to disarm the security device, and Xiao Yao also knows from the information found that the managers do not know each other’s passwords.

In addition to these facilities, the security measures of the national treasury still exist everywhere.

For example, the entire vault is blocked by barbed wire and high iron fences; countless night vision cameras, infrared alarm systems, and motion sensors monitor everything around it; what’s even more frightening is that between the exterior wall and the building, even There is a large minefield with landmines.

In addition, there is a special service team affiliated with the Well Tea Bureau of the National Mint on standby 24 hours a day to prevent emergencies.

The national treasury, which is extremely safe in the eyes of the people of the country, is undefended for Xiaoyao.

Ordinary people can never guess what magical methods a cultivator will have, or how to guard against it.

The building of the National Treasury did not use materials to prevent the detection of God’s consciousness, which gave Xiao Yao an opportunity.

Of course, even if the national treasury uses materials that prevent the detection of gods, Xiao Yao still has other means to empty the gold reserves in the treasury.

Xiao Yao didn’t delay time, all the gold in the vault was taken into the Holy Soul Realm by him within a short time.

He did not count how many tons of gold there are in the vault, but he thinks that there are at least 6,000 tons, which seems to be much more than the figure estimated by the outside world.

The outside world generally believes that the vault contains 4,500 to 4,600 tons of national reserves of gold, accounting for 56.35% of the country’s total gold reserves, and it is a well-deserved national treasury. Although this is not the era of the gold standard, this gold is still the lifeblood of the nation.

The actual number Xiao Yao obtained obviously far exceeded this number.

He felt that this extra part of gold should be the gold obtained by the United States from other sources, and it should be unknown.

For him, of course, the more gold in the vault, the better, and the extra part is regarded as a surprise.

In addition to the total reserves of more than 6000 tons of gold, the vault also stores a large number of antique works of art.

It was previously reported that a large amount of gold and artworks were stored in the national treasury of the *country, and the famous “Constitution of *country” and the originals of the “Declaration of Independence” were all stored here. In addition, royal symbols such as the crown, sword and scepter of the Hungarian royal family were also stored here.

But Xiao Yao did not see any of the above, and the large number of antique artworks he obtained from the vault did not include these.

Even without these items, Xiao Yao is still very happy, because there are so many antiques and artworks in the vault, and all of them are rare treasures.

Among these collections, there are only 17 oil paintings with a price of more than 100 million U.S. dollars, 6 sculptures with a price of more than 100 million U.S. dollars, and 19 other Western cultural relics with a price of more than 100 million U.S. dollars. These are just the top ones. Western cultural relics and artworks are already a huge gain.

In addition, there are a total of 267 pieces of Western antique art with a price of more than US$10 million. The number of Western antique art with a price of less than US$10 million is not very large, and there are only 126 pieces in total.

The antique art collections in the vault are mostly western antique art, but there are also many antique art in the East.

Xiao Yao pays more attention to antique artworks from China. He roughly estimated that there are 43 antique artworks of various types with a price of more than 100 million yuan, and various types of antiques with a price of more than 10 million yuan. There are as many as 176 artworks.

Xiao Yao didn’t know how the antique art collections in the vault were obtained from the country, but this is no longer important. Anyway, these precious antique art works are cheap to him.

It took only five or six minutes from Xiao Yao’s arrival to the National Treasury until his departure. No one knows that in such a short period of time, the heavily guarded national treasury has been completely evacuated.

Xiao Yao came silently and left silently, without disturbing anyone.

The trip was very smooth, but Xiao Yao knew that the empty national treasury would inevitably be discovered by the staff within half an hour to two hours at most.

With the lessons learned from the *National Treasury, his next goal* The Federal Reserve Treasury will definitely strengthen its guard.

He is going to put the next action in the evening.

The reason for putting the action at night is because *The Federal Reserve vault is not as deserted as the national vault. During the working hours of the day, there are people coming and going in the vault. In addition to the staff, there are even visitors. It can be said to be noisy and yet busy.

According to the relevant regulations of the *country, if the relevant procedures are fulfilled, the public has the right to visit even in a tight place like the *Fed vault. Ordinary people must go through the formalities and make an appointment in advance to visit the vault, usually at least a few months in advance.

But Xiao Yao believes that after news of the theft of the national treasury comes out, the * Fed’s policy of allowing the public to visit will definitely be cancelled temporarily or even permanently.

Why do so many people want to visit the *Fed Reserve Bank?

The answer is simple, *The Fed’s vault stores too much gold, and as long as there is a chance, everyone wants to see it with their own eyes.

From a global perspective, 30% of the reserves of developed countries are in the form of gold. Among them, the *country holds 8,000 tons of gold, followed by Germany* holding 3,000 tons, and France* and Italy each hold 8,000 tons of gold. With 2500 tons, Russia’s military ranked fifth, followed by China’s military in sixth place.

With such a huge reserve, where is the gold of all countries hidden?

Central banks of various countries are very secretive about this issue, but one thing is certain, that is, not all official reserves are stored in their own vaults. On the contrary, the gold of many countries is stored abroad. For example, Germany*, which ranks second, puts 45% of its gold reserves in the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

It is not only Germany* who chooses to deposit gold in the Federal Reserve Bank, but also many other countries and organizations.

In other words, the *Fed’s underground vaults store not only *country gold, but also gold stored here by other countries and organizations.

The total amount of gold stored here by various countries and organizations is said to have reached a terrible amount of seven to eight thousand tons.

Who doesn’t want to take a look at the underground vault with so many huge amounts of gold?

Xiao Yao also wants to visit if he has the opportunity.

No. 33, Freedom Road, New* City is an old building with more than ten floors and granite exterior. It is very inconspicuous among the rows of skyscrapers in the central financial district of New York City. But don’t underestimate it, it is where the *Federal Reserve Bank of New York is located.

That night, Xiao Yao arrived here quietly.

It looks no different from other places, but Xiao Yao is sensitive to the sense that it is already tight outside and tight inside, and it can even be called tightly guarded.

In the surrounding area, there are plain-clothed well teas with guns all over them. These well teas are like enemies, always keeping vigilance.

After observing this situation, Xiao Yao still looked relaxed, and did not pay attention to these well-guarded well teas.

He did not rush to act. He has long been admired for the famous * Fed Underground Treasury. Since he is here, he of course wants to visit it.

Although he could not personally enter the underground vault, it did not prevent him from using his spiritual sense to detect it.

* The Fed’s vault has no doors at all, but a solid steel cylinder 2.7 meters high and 90 tons in weight.

The outside of the steel cylinder is reinforced with a reinforced concrete wall weighing 140 tons. In the center of the steel cylinder, there is a narrow passage of 3 meters long. Only by gently manipulating the switch, the steel cylinder can rotate 90 degrees, exposing the passage for personnel to enter and exit.

The entire steel cylinder system is operated manually and mechanically, even if it encounters an emergency such as a power outage, it will not affect the opening and closing. It is said that since it was used in 1924, there has not been a single malfunction.

The access control system is not only that, but there are also a variety of high-tech technologies to prevent theft. For example, when the door is closed, the vault is automatically airtight. The vault can be closed immediately within 28 seconds, and the air inside is only enough for one person to survive 7~ 8 hours.

For another example, everyone who tries to walk into the vault must be scanned by an iris eyeball camera. The eyeball iris of each internal staff member of the vault is stored in the camera in advance. After scanning, the computer will check the record immediately. Once the corresponding iris record is not found. Kumen refused to open it for you, and issued an alarm.

Wanting to enter the vault illegally is a big problem first.

The security system of this underground vault can be said to be at the top level in the world. Xiao Yao’s spiritual sense has detected that many armed guards with guns and live ammunition are guarding in shifts inside and outside the vault.

The security measures inside the vault are equally stringent.

Every step in the treasury area, a set of super-advanced “foot automatic cameras” installed inside will accurately locate and record your specific location every second and every step, so that people sitting in the monitoring room can see at a glance. Any abnormality of the people walking inside will be noticed by the monitoring staff.

Even if a thief gets into the vault by chance, it will be extremely difficult to take the next step.

The entire underground vault is about half the size of a football field and is surrounded by hard rocks on Manhattan Island. It is divided into 122 warehouses. The largest warehouse stores about 107,000 gold ingots, stacked 3 meters high, 3 meters wide, and 5 It is more than a meter long and looks very shocking.

Each iron gate has a number on it, which represents the country or institution that stores the gold bricks. Xiao Yao’s spiritual consciousness swept through the gates, and there were more than 60 countries and organizations storing gold here.
