On February 5th, the dark clouds finally left, and the sun shone brightly.
After a cold winter, the sky above Flagstaff seemed to have become bluer. Li Du looked up at the blue sky, feeling refreshed.
Thousands of rays of light shone on the ground, warming everyone's bodies. Hans blew into his hands and said, "Very good, spring is coming. My Big Fox's spring is coming too!"
"Spring is coming. Are you going to go into heat? If that's the case, the female cats and dogs of Flagstaff are going to suffer. "A coarse voice came from behind, followed by a few laughs.
Li Du also wanted to laugh, but he knew that he couldn't. He and Hans were on the same side.
Soon, he didn't feel like laughing anymore. The coarse voice continued, "Oh, you still like little yellow dogs? That's a very unique hobby. "
Li Du frowned. This was a mockery of his skin color.
Many people in the United States had serious racial discrimination, but because the law was very strict, these people would use some inexplicable metaphors to mock people of color.
Hans turned around angrily and looked at a fat white man with slicked-back hair. "Rambis, your mouth is still as messy as a girl's. This time, I'll bid for the motorcycle storage. With the money, I'll send you to Thailand for surgery."
Li Du nodded at Rambis and said, "No need to thank him, he's just that generous."
Rambis had brought two big black men with him. They were about six feet tall and wore thin T-shirts, looking like two black bears.
Hearing Li Du's words, one of the big black men said fiercely, "You have no right to speak here, little girl!"
Hans went up and pushed the big man, saying angrily, "Barry, don't pretend to be a f * cking tough guy here! You're a sissy's follower, so you're definitely a b * stard too! "
Li Du continued, "In China, tough guys definitely don't wear ear studs. If we use Billups' reverse reasoning, then the person who wears ear studs is definitely not a tough guy, but a cute girl with a pink soul."
"You want to fight?"
"F * ck you!"
"I'm going to crush this yellow boy's neck!"
Hans curled his lips in disdain. "Come on, make your move. We have one less competitor!"
Li Du was not afraid. Recently, he had been studying and learning about storage auctions. He knew that such auctions had strict rules regarding order. Anyone who started a fight would be expelled from the auction.
Before Rambis left, he pointed his finger at Hans's chest and said, "Just you wait, poor bastard. With me here today, you won't get a single storage unit!"
Hans's reply was a middle finger.
The storage auction would start at eight o 'clock and end before noon.
Li Du looked around. There were fewer storage units to be auctioned this time around, but there were more people. There were about seventy to eighty people.
Hans explained, "The treasure hunters who came last time were mostly from Flagstaff. This time, the value of the Harley is higher, so treasure hunters from the surrounding towns are also here."
"Who is that Rambis?"
"Phoenix idiot. Self-righteous, arrogant, ignorant, and stupid. Ignore him." Hans gritted his teeth and said, "But this guy has a powerful brother-in-law. Just be careful of him."
Just like Smith's storage auction, the auctioneer this time was the old man in the cowboy hat who spoke very quickly. "Line up, everyone. The auction is about to begin. I won't say much about the rules. Those who don't understand don't need to participate in this auction."
Li Du pondered for a while. Even the opening words were the same.
The storage doors opened and the treasure hunters started to look around.
There were two Yamahas in the first storage unit. Li Du knew that they were just empty frames and not worth much. However, the two bikes were mostly covered by tarpaulins. From the surface, they looked intact.
Seeing the two bikes, Hans became excited. "Hey, Yamaha Skywalker and Yamaha Road-Star. These two models are not bad. How about we bid for this storage unit?"
Li Du shook his head. "No, not this one."
"Why? This storage unit can make money! "
Li Du said firmly, "This is not our target, Big Fox. Our target is only the Harley. Don't worry about anything else."
Everyone saw the two bikes. Hans estimated the value of the two bikes to be around 5,000 dollars.
Based on the investment principle of 50% of the cost and 50% of the profit, this storage unit would be sold for at least 2,500 dollars.
After the viewing, the auction began. The old man in the cowboy hat raised his hand. "One hundred, one hundred, one hundred. Is there anyone who wants to bid two hundred, two hundred …"
"One thousand!" Someone raised the price.
Li Du looked in the direction of the voice and saw Rambis's proud smile.
The old man pointed at Rambis. "Very good. This guy in sunglasses has raised the price to 1,000, 1,000, 1,000. Is there anyone who wants to bid 1,100, 1,100, 1,100?"
"Yes!"
The price quickly rose to 1,500 dollars.
Hans also wanted to bid, but Li Du shook his head firmly. At this time, Rambis walked to their side and smiled disdainfully. "Why aren't you bidding?"
A black man said, "I guess they don't have money."
"If they don't have money, then go home and play. What are you doing here? Are you jealous? "another black lackey said rudely.
Rambis shook his head at Hans. "Big Fox, look at you now. You're like a dog eyeing a bone, and a stupid dog at that. It's not like you to not sell such a good storage unit."
After saying that, he raised his hand. "2,000 dollars!"
The old auctioneer pointed at him and shouted, "The price has skyrocketed. It's now 2,000 dollars, 2,000 dollars, 2,000 dollars, then —"
"2,500!" Hans immediately raised the price.
Li Du looked at him in shock. Hans shook his head and said in a low voice, "For the sake of your great leader, don't say anything. I know what I'm doing."
Rambis spat in disdain. "Three thousand dollars!"
After hearing this bid, Hans shrugged. "Look, who's the stupid dog? Someone just threw a bone, and some stupid dog bit it. I have to say, it's quite a bite. "
After saying that, he walked away with his hands behind his back.
When the second storage unit was opened, there were still traces of the motorcycles. The competition for this storage unit was fierce, and the starting price was still 100 dollars.
Rambis was obviously determined to get the motorcycles. This time, he used 2,800 dollars to get the second storage unit.
The third storage unit still had traces of the motorcycles. Rambis did not say anything. He was not a millionaire, and the amount of money he could use from the auction had already reached its limit.
The price for the third storage unit was slightly lower, but it was still 2,500 dollars. When it came to the fourth storage unit, the price continued to drop, and it was only 2,000 dollars.
When the last storage unit was opened, Li Du gave Big Fox a look. Get this one!
Compared to the previous four storage units, the fifth storage unit did not have any valuable items that could be found at a glance. There was also no trace of the motorcycles, so the starting price was the lowest.
"400 dollars, 400 dollars, 400 dollars, this is the last storage unit. There's no way we'll lose out on buying it, because we all know that the good stuff is always at the end. So, 500 dollars, anyone want it?"
Hans raised his hand. "500 dollars!"
