so today i'm in japan's noto area and just behind me is an 80 year old warehouse and it hasn't been opened up for the last 40 years there hasn't been anyone here it's completely abandoned and today i'm going to be taking you inside as we try to unlock it and see what's inside a friend of mine recently purchased a property that was abandoned by a millionaire in noto ishikawa and while renovating it came across a locked and untouched storage building on the property he told me that i could be the first one to open it so here we are to give you a little more background and why this piqued my interest is because the former owner's ancestors built their fortune as ship owners of the kitamae bune merchant vessels which was known to operate from the mid edo period to the late meiji era navigating the sea of japan to trade goods from osaka and hokkaido so the thing is i don't know how much all of this costs so i've actually brought an appraiser with us today to help us see if there's anything of value so this is the house huh both the house and the traditional style storage building known in japanese as kura were constructed 80 years ago however after the last heir of the family business passed away prematurely about 40 years ago the entire property was left untouched and the storage building has been locked up until today and who knows we may just unearth some old japanese treasures worth millions of dollars only time will tell wow check this out so this is the main house and this place has already been but just look at here they got some like tires an old couch i think a bird's nest oh look at that that's even like a toilet right there toilet maybe urinal check out right here they have a little bath area yo what's this oh i kind of thought it was used to hang people different traditional japanese houses often had exposed ceiling beams and people would use them cleverly for storage making efficient use of the high ceiling space so the interior of the house is pretty worn down and all of the owner's belongings was left as is frozen in time for the last 40 years according to my friend he had relatives that live in a nearby city but they didn't particularly bother to go through the former owner's belongings so it was a mess when he first opened up this main area it's still a bit eerie to walk through an abandoned house even though much of it has already been cleaned up there's also an upstairs area but yeah i don't think i'm gonna be going up there anytime soon there's just so many cobwebs out here it's like getting all over me so this is the door right here it hasn't been opened yet and you got to figure out a way to open it so i think i'm gonna have to use some tools so kura a storage building within a japanese home used to be a symbol of wealth as it was used to store important documents valuables and items that were passed down from generation to generation so you guys might be wondering how i got access to this place my friend who's revitalizing this note area more specifically the akasaki area and so he purchased this place to renovate it apparently it cost the amount of a i guess a small car to purchase this entire property i'm doing quite a lot of different projects around this area so if you guys want to know more about what he's doing then i'm going to leave a link and so you guys can maybe help us support him okay so before we go inside i got some jacket and i got some gloves and stuff so i'm there's a lot of like mosquitoes here i already got bit once so i should just spray a little bit let's do one of those one of these like ac jackets has a battery here i got to connect it up ready to go to the war zone so i don't think i actually need those goggles but it's quite dark in here so i think we need to go bring in some lights hey are we gonna fall through not the way i want to die what is that kimonos were once treasured heirlooms passed down from mother to daughter however as japanese over have stopped wearing them in regular daily life the demand for them have decreased and so has their market value even though these are still beautiful and functional kimonos some are now considered too old to price these timeless pieces can often be found at flea markets and second hand shops at very affordable prices so none of them are valuable these days so not a good start but i feel like we're gonna find something big oh can this be it man i really thought those items would be worth something this decorative technique of using finely ground gold or silver is unique to japan has been continuously applied not only to folding screens but also to book covers sliding doors and scrolls so basically nothing so far huh this is a safe that was used to store money and valuables back in the day all right that's money on the board although we still haven't found that million dollar treasure i still have hope as he rummages through the boxes i patiently wait for him to yell i found something okay so apparently there is nothing of real value you have a bunch of like gifts that people get when you like you go to like weddings and like those kind of things and then you can see that part of the japanese culture is to give something and you get something back and they just have a lot of these gifts that they just stored away they have all the kimono and like clothing and like mattress over there some scrolls not the dead sea scrolls though um unfortunately and they have like these boards here much worth anything hey is any of the furniture up here worth anything apparently even if they were in good condition there's more people selling them than buying them so they're not that valuable these days all right so we got the light set up right here so you can see a little bit more of what's going on over here and you can see all around because of the noto earthquake that happened recently you can see all of it kind of fell over so we have to pick stuff up the first floor seems to be filled with tableware as we look for stuff still hoping that we find something expensive kutaniyaki is a style of porcelain and it originates from the ishikawa prefecture it's also known for its colorful design that fills the space how much is it now we're cooking nice he found more liquorware let's put our glove back on i had to put this take the glove off because i can't tap to focus on the monitor so i had to take my glove off but here we go let's see what's inside of this whiskey it looks like there's just some plates here i don't know maybe it's for something made in china oh there's more here oh good thing i was wearing gloves grab this mail gloves save the day seriously how many plates can one family have so what time period is all this stuff from  hey what's inside the closet so is it true that japanese hide their money in their futon or like myth busters this is what we found so far we're gonna keep on looking we are finding some stuff here we'll put all this outside and then we'll just count it all up to see what we can actually sell all this stuff for these are wajima lacquerware a famous craft from wajima ishikawa it's made of multiple layers of lacquer giving it durability and a beautiful shine these pieces were used back in the day during celebration gatherings held in the home where they would eat on the ground unfortunately due to japan's changing customs they're no longer commonly used is it worth anything wow this newspaper is from 1960 dope i guess you don't need this mask anymore we're bringing all the stuff right now see how much it all costs okay so we pulled everything out pretty much all of the expensive stuff this guy right here is probably one of the more expensive items it's about ten thousand yen just because these are you know stuff that people would want i was thinking that we would find like gold and like all sorts of stuff but we really didn't find it we have just a bunch of tableware items stuff that people would usually use like in their normal daily living and then put it in storage so this is what we found it is quite cute has like fish and stuff have a little bird here so this is kind of like their fishing association's memorial gift all right so the grand finale drum roll please fifty thousand yen for all this stuff behind me that works out to be about three hundred and thirty four thirty five dollars yeah but that's pretty much it we didn't find any super crazy treasures or anything but maybe you know next time if we do this again let me know in the comments if you do want to see something like this again and if you don't then well we probably won't do it again if you guys also share that in the comments but you know if you like this type of video help me out and hit that like button if you

今天我來到了日本的能登地區 就在我身後有一座80年曆史的倉庫 過去40年裡它從未被打開過我的一個朋友最近在石川縣能登買了一處百萬富翁遺棄的房產，在翻修的時候發現了一棟上了鎖的倉庫，他告訴我，我可以成為第一個打開它的人。這棟建築的背景以及為什麼會引起我的興趣，是因為它的前主人的祖先曾是北前文根商船的船主，在江戶時代中期到明治時代晚期，北前文根商船一直在日本海上航行，從大阪和北海道進行貨物貿易。我不知道這些東西到底值多少錢，所以我今天帶了一個估價師來幫我們看看有沒有什麼值錢的東西，這是房子，房子和傳統風格的儲
