Chapter 1238: Roosevelt's Vault
Turning the corner of the stairs downward, Ye Tian once again entered the arched secret passage from before, which was the real Roosevelt President Passage.
Unlike before, the passage is much cleaner and brightly lit, and the light conditions are very good, just like the street outside the central station.
Immediately after Ye Tian, David and the others also entered this secret passage, as well as the New York City government and his party who followed behind, those guys from the Federal Reserve, media reporters, and several senior executives of Grand Central Station.
Except for Ye Tian himself and those high-level officials of the Central Station, the rest of the people entered this legendary secret passage for the first time.
Unsurprisingly, each of them was completely stunned by the secret passage in front of them, and exclaimed directly.
"I'll go! This secret passage is so wide, it's no problem to drive in it, it's so big, it's staggering!"
"What kind of secret passage is this, the railroad track is the third underground level of the central station, but it is not known!"
In the midst of everyone's exclamations, Thomas, general manager of Grand Central Station, said with a smile:
"This secret passage, famous for President Roosevelt, but not exclusively for the president, has some military use, and is the deepest bomb shelter in New York, and it is extremely fortified,......"
While Thomas introduced this secret passage, Walker's voice also came from the wireless headphones, informing Ye Tian of the latest situation.
"Steven, the employees of our company have already come, a group of eight people, this will be standing next to me, ready to enter the passage to assist you"
"Very well, let those guys wait outside the passage, and when that secret vault is opened, they can enter this secret passage.
Next, they have to supervise the whole process of cleaning the vault, and keep a detailed record of everything stored in this secret vault to ensure our interests!"
Ye Tian said in a low voice, giving clear instructions.
As soon as he finished speaking, Christopher walked up to him and said eagerly:
"Steven, where is that secret vault hidden? We've entered this secret passage, so don't be careful, hurry up and open that secret vault, let's open our eyes!"
With Christopher's words, everyone in this secret passage looked at Ye Tian, and everyone's eyes were extremely hot and full of anticipation.
Ye Tian turned his head to look at Christopher, and then quickly glanced at the crowd at the scene, then nodded with a smile and said,
"Since everyone is so eager to see that secret vault and see the reserve gold stored in it, then I don't want to hang everyone's appetite, just open that secret vault"
As he spoke, he walked to the wall five or six meters in front of him, on the right hand side of everyone, with a smug smile on his face.
"Is the secret vault hidden behind that wall? can't it? We've checked the walls and floors before, and we haven't found any traces of the walls or dark rooms."
Thomas, who was following behind, said in surprise and pointed to the wall in front of him.
The same goes for several other senior executives at Central Station, everyone has a little doubt in their eyes, and of course, more remorse!
"Hahaha, that's because you didn't have the right way to open the door to the vault, so naturally you couldn't discover the secret vault!
This isn't surprising, because you don't often come into contact with things like secret rooms and secret passages, unlike us professional treasure hunters, who are more sensitive to these things!"
Ye Tian turned his head and said with a chuckle, but his feet did not stop.
"You're right, Steven, there are no secret rooms and secret passages in our lives, let alone secret vaults and treasures"
Blake continued, his words full of envy.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Tian had already walked to the wall and stopped.
Without the slightest hesitation, the next moment, he raised his right foot and stepped on an ordinary ordinary floor tile in the corner of the wall, and stepped on it with all his strength.
Seeing his action, everyone instantly understood that that floor tile was the mechanism that opened the secret vault, which was too ordinary and inconspicuous, who could notice!
Just when everyone was secretly sighing and even regretting, the situation had changed.
"Click"
The sound of a whirlwind suddenly sounded, and it sounded a little harsh and harsh, making people's teeth sour and goosebumps all over their bodies.
"This secret vault has been closed for too long, it hasn't been opened for decades, and the gearing inside the mechanism must be very dry, even rusty.
Thankfully, last week's incident made me discover this secret vault, and in a few years' time, it would probably have been completely ineffective.
At that time, this secret vault will be buried forever and will never see the light of day again, and even if Grand Central Station is torn down and rebuilt, it may not be discovered!"
Ye Tian said as he stepped down on the floor tiles with all his strength.
Before he could finish speaking, a gap suddenly appeared in the wall next to him, extending from the top of the wall to the ground.
The crack into the wall was narrow, less than a centimeter, and coincided with a corner of the wall, making it very inconspicuous.
If you weren't staring at the wall, it would be hard to spot this invisible gap, and it would be easy to ignore the past.
The moment they saw this gap, everyone's eyes at the scene suddenly lit up, and they shone brightly, like searchlights, and they were scary!
The tooth-barring, unusually piercing sound of the machine was gone, and the secret passage was quiet again, except for the sound of heavy breathing.
Ye Tian quickly glanced at these excited guys, then stretched out his hands and pressed them against the wall, and forcefully pushed open the door of this extremely camouflaged vault.
"Click"
There was another whirling sound, which was equally tooth-barren, and goosebumps rose up and down my body.
With a harsh sound, the door of the vault, which was half a meter thick, two meters high, and about one meter and a half meters wide, was slowly pushed open by Ye Tian.
Seeing the thickness of this vault door, everyone at the scene gasped and exclaimed directly.
"I'll go! This vault door is too exaggerated, no worse than the doors of those bank vaults on the street outside, it must be very strong, and the protection is super strong, no one wants to break it easily!"
"Isn't it? The thickness of our Grand Central Station vault door is not so exaggerated, and what is even more exaggerated is that this vault door does not have any handles on it, and it is all open and closed by chance.
Obviously, a lot of thought must have gone into building this secret vault in the first place, and President Roosevelt also attached great importance to this secret vault and spared no expense to build it!"
While everyone exclaimed, looking at Ye Tian's eyes couldn't help but become more solemn, full of jealousy, and at the same time, there was also a little admiration!
It's just Steven, a monster guy, who has infinite strength to push open the door to this vault!
If it were someone else, even if they were lucky enough to find the mechanism on the ground, I am afraid that they would not be able to open the door of this extremely thick vault alone!
While speaking, the door of this vault had been completely pushed open by Ye Tian, and a dark secret passage immediately appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
With no lights, the depths of the tunnel are pitch black, and no one can see what is hidden inside.
"Gentlemen, please, this is the secret vault set up by President Roosevelt, and if you walk down this passage for about fifteen meters, you will see the chests full of gold reserves.
I've already explored this tunnel and the vault inside, and there is no danger except for a few rats, so don't worry, just go in and explore.
This secret vault is very cleverly designed, it is connected to the underground ventilation system of the central station, and the air inside is not decent, and there is no feeling of suffocation in it."
Ye Tian said with a chuckle and made a gesture of please.
At the same time, Jason and Matisse, who were standing next to him, each turned on their hand-held searchlights and shone into the depths of the tunnel.
Wherever the two powerful beams went, the situation inside the tunnel, as well as a part of the vault in the depths of the tunnel, was immediately revealed to everyone.
The first thing you see is a series of clear footprints that stretch into the depths of the tunnel.
No need to ask, of course these are the footprints left by Ye Tian, and in the past few decades today, he was the only one who had entered this tunnel!
Later, everyone saw the mottled walls on both sides of the tunnel, covered with moss, and some wall lamps and ceiling lights that had long been scrapped, one every two or three meters.
Continuing to look ahead, until passing through the tunnel more than ten meters long, everyone saw a row of iron fences, made of wrist-thick steel bars, through the top of the tunnel and the ground, very solid.
Behind the row of iron fences is what everyone wants to see the most.
As far as the eye can see, there are long crates, dozens of boxes neatly stacked together, like a small mountain, which is very shocking.
And that's just part of what you see through the tunnel mouth, and God knows how many boxes or whatever!
Except for Ye Tian, the people standing at the mouth of the tunnel were all stupid, stunned by the scene in front of them, and their eyes were about to fly out of their sockets, full of incredulity and madness!
Everyone's performance, as early as Ye Tian expected, he just looked at these guys with a smile on his face, and didn't wake them up.
It took a long time for these guys to come to their senses, and exclamations followed.
"Oh my God, don't tell me that those long crates are full of gold reserves, and what a fortune it must be, and it will be insane!"
"Who would have thought that there really is a secret vault deep underground in Grand Central Station, and it is so huge, it is crazy, it is incredible!"
In an exclamation, Christopher said categorically:
"This is the Fed's reserve gold! Those boxes are the boxes that the Fed uses to hold gold, and they haven't changed for decades, and this is a huge discovery, and it's definitely going to make a national sensation."
Before he could finish speaking, Christopher rushed into the tunnel first, and went straight to the vault in the depths of the tunnel, very fast, like an old man of sixty or seventy years old.
The others reacted and rushed into the tunnel, everyone's faces flushed with excitement, their eyes shining brightly, and their eyes burning incomparably!
David was also about to step into the depths of the tunnel, but was gently pulled by Ye Tian, this guy reacted very quickly, immediately stopped, and stayed in place.
After the rest of the people poured into the tunnel, Ye Tian said in a low voice:
"David, it's time for you to put on a show, keep an eye on those guys at the Federal Reserve, record every piece of gold in this secret vault, and make sure our interests are not violated."
"No problem, Steven, don't worry about leaving it to us, no one can take away your interests, even if it's a dollar!"
David nodded excitedly, his tone unusually firm.
David and Jason then walked briskly into the tunnel to visit the secret vault and supervise the Fed guys along the way.
Ye Tian and Matisse stayed outside, waiting to harvest their wealth!
