Standing in front of the window, Li Du enjoyed the beautiful sunrise.
At sunrise, the river was as red as fire, and in spring, the river was as green as blue.
Bai Juyi's "Memory of Jiangnan" actually had the same effect as the Atlantic Ocean thousands of miles away from Jiangnan.
Li Du's trip in New York was over. If it had not been for Carlston's invitation, he would have rushed back to Phoenix overnight. His parents and family were all there, and he did not want to be separated for a moment.
He could not get the shares for the time being. Before, he could still force Carlston, but now he was a little reluctant.
On the plane back, Li Du thought that perhaps only people like Carlston could be counted as opponents. You know you shouldn't get close to him, and he wants to take advantage of you, but you can't do anything about it.
Back in Phoenix, the engagement party was almost ready.
The number of guests was confirmed, and Hans booked a room at the Hilton Hotel. Whether it was Porter or Steve, or the treasure hunters from Flagstaff, they would all stay in a five-star hotel.
Li Du had a detailed understanding of the process of the party. Hans and Lu Guan did a good job organizing it.
After talking about the party, Hans closed the folder and said, "Hey, brother, you don't seem to be in a good mood. I think you have something on your mind."
Lu Guan shrugged and said, "If I'm going to get engaged soon, I'll have a lot on my mind. But boss, everything will go well. Don't think too much."
Li Du laughed and said, "You misunderstood me. I'm not worried, I'm thinking about something else. Well, I'm thinking that I don't have a house of my own yet. Do you understand what I mean? "
"Then don't get engaged?" Hans asked.
Li Du kicked his chair and said angrily, "Nonsense, I mean, I want to buy a house of my own."
Although he was not an American citizen, he could buy a house in the United States, which had nothing to do with his household registration or even his green card.
He had not bought a house before. First, Li Du was not interested, and second, he felt it was unnecessary. After buying a house in the United States, he had to pay property tax every year.
Although Li Du was quite rich before, according to his ideas, buying a house in the United States was not a big deal. The property tax of a mansion was not low, and it had put pressure on him before.
Now? That's it.
This time, he was stimulated by Carlston's mansion and made up his mind to buy a house. Although renting a house was quite comfortable, after all, it was not his territory.
Besides, there were other reasons why he didn't want to stay here anymore. First, ever since he realized that he was the result of Cole's scheme, he didn't have a good impression of this villa anymore.
Secondly, the previous earthquake had caused some damage to the villa. The walls had cracked, the pipes had problems, and the decorations had holes. It was not so comfortable to live in now.
Hearing that Li Du wanted to buy a house, Lu Guan perked up. "Is it a mansion?"
Li Du nodded. "Yes, an absolute mansion. If there's a castle, I'll buy one!"
"What kind of castle is there in Arizona?" Hans said disdainfully.
Li Du looked at him and said slowly, "Who said anything about buying in Arizona?"
Hans asked in surprise, "What do you mean?"
"Los Angeles! I'm going to the City of Angels! "
Yes, Li Du wanted to buy a house in Los Angeles. There was no need for him to continue staying in Arizona. There was no need for him to continue staying in a small place like Phoenix.
He had thought it through. His main career in the future was definitely not going to be in storage auctions. There was no need for him to continue focusing on this industry.
In his mind, he should go to a big city like Los Angeles. Not only could he make money there, but he could also develop his connections there.
"Go to Los Angeles." Hans suddenly hesitated.
Li Du was puzzled. "Yes, don't you think it's great that we can develop in Los Angeles in the future? You should like Los Angeles, right? There's a good life there, and the nightlife is rich. "
Hans shook his head. "No, I hate that kind of life. I've turned over a new leaf."
If Li Du believed him, he would be bewitched.
Hans said, "We came to Phoenix because we're already the treasure hunting kings of Flagstaff. We should go to a bigger place to develop."
"Now, we haven't become the treasure hunting kings of Arizona yet. What I mean is, if we go to California now and start fighting across states, isn't that a little too big of a step?"
Li Du said nonchalantly, "Treasure hunting kings? What's that? "
Hans looked at him seriously and said, "This is a dream. Didn't you have this idea before? Become the treasure hunting king of Arizona and become a legend. "
Li Du stared at him and said, "You're not joking?"
To be honest, he did have such an idea before. However, he had made a lot of money from the gemstone industry, and the small amount of money from storage auctions was nothing to him.
Hans nodded his head solemnly. "This is my dream."
Li Du felt that this dream was a little ridiculous. Shouldn't their dream be to make money?
However, he quickly realized that he and Hans were walking on a different path.
He had a diamond mine and an island that he was about to get his hands on. The island was rich in opal deposits, but Hans did not. Hans could get dividends from the mine, but he did not know about the existence of the mine.
To him, storage auctions that could earn him hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars were still his main business.
However, to Li Du, this was just a drizzle.
Hans quickly mentioned this point. He said, "Li, you're moving too fast now. We started in Flagstaff, came to Phoenix, and now you're going to Los Angeles. You have the confidence, but I don't."
Li Du nodded. "I kind of understand what you mean, but you know what kind of guy I am. Whatever I have, you have."
Hans said, "I believe you, but this makes me more, more, more afraid."
He sighed as he spat out the last word.
"It seems like the gap between us is getting bigger. Los Angeles is another level of the auction world. I've failed there before. I'm afraid of it, but you're not afraid of anything. It used to be the opposite. "
Things were different now. In the past, it was the opposite. Wherever he went to an auction, Li Du would carefully prepare for it, worried about trouble and accidents.
But now, Li Du was not afraid of anything. Instead, he was anxious to go to a wider world, to see more things, to make more and more useful connections.
Thinking of the past, Li Du's voice softened. He said, "I'm going to buy a house in Los Angeles, a wedding house. But, let's continue to mingle in Phoenix and become the Treasure Hunter Tycoon of Arizona first. "
Hans laughed happily and said, "You're very confident?"
Li Du snorted. "I'll show you what I'm capable of! Get ready, and I hope you won't be afraid! "
