Princeps was stunned. He was really stunned.
As he shouted, he looked back. A strong figure appeared in his field of vision, but this figure was strong and agile. With a few twists and turns, he disappeared into the crowd without a sound.
There were too many treasure hunters, and because the price had increased so much, people were in high spirits.
People kept pushing forward to witness the bidding war, and people kept retreating. The scene was chaotic, so no one noticed the figure that had disappeared into the crowd.
Hearing the bid of 400,000, Li Du shook his head and backed out.
The auctioneer immediately shouted, "400,000, 400,000, 400,000, once, twice, 400,000, twice, 400,000, sold!"
The final bid was too high. Although there had been high-priced units before, none had reached this level. Even though the auctioneer was experienced and knowledgeable, he was still a little excited.
Princeps was anxious. He pushed away the people who were blocking him and shouted, "This is not my bid! I didn't come up with this price! I did not bid 400,000! "
The auctioneer ignored him and went straight to unit 33.
Princeps grabbed him and roared, "Are you deaf? I did not bid for that unit. I did not bid 400,000, not me! "
The auctioneer was unhappy. He stared at him and said, "What do you mean? My hearing is fine, buddy. Even if you bid 400,000, my eyes are fine too. I saw it, you raised your hand and bid 400,000! "
Some treasure hunters beside him nodded and said, "Yes, Princeps, you were the one who bid 400,000, and you raised your hand."
"Yes, I saw it. What's wrong with you? Why are you regretting it?"
"Boss Princeps, you were the one who bid. This is your unit."
These voices made Princeps confused. He looked around and realized that there was something wrong with the people around him. They were not his new Tucson gang members, nor were they his new subordinates!
He recognized these people. They were all treasure hunters from Flagstaff. But when did these people appear around him? Where were his subordinates?
Suddenly, he felt the flat ground shake. He stumbled and leaned on the shoulder of someone beside him. He mumbled, "It's not me, it's really not me!"
"It's you, I saw you raise your hand," the treasure hunter said. At the same time, he was puzzled. "What's wrong with you, Princeps? There's a Lamborghini in this storage unit. You were very enthusiastic when you were bidding just now!"
The auctioneer ignored him and walked towards unit 33. He opened the door and started the next auction.
He knew Princeps. Princeps relied on the storage auction industry to make a living. There was no way he would not pay the 400,000 dollars that the last storage unit had sold. Otherwise, he would not be able to participate in storage auctions in the future.
In the afternoon, the weather in Nogales was relatively hot, but Princeps started to feel cold all over again.
His new subordinates finally caught up to him and held him up. They asked,
"Brother Princeps, what's wrong?"
"You don't look good. Did you get a heatstroke?"
"Get lost! Heatstroke in winter? Does Princeps have hypoglycemia? "
Princeps looked at them in a daze and asked, "Just now, where did you go just now?"
A group of people said, "I'm around you, but there's always someone pushing me. I'm pushed to the back." "There's someone pushing me too. Damn it, what are these idiots pushing for?"
Princeps had a bad feeling. He had a feeling that he had fallen into a trap.
Subconsciously, he looked at Li Du. Li Du was still smiling at him. It was a very mysterious smile.
He wanted to open the storage unit and check the condition of the cars inside. He had spent 400,000 dollars to buy a Lamborghini. Unless the car was in good condition, he would definitely lose money!
After all, 500,000 dollars was enough to buy a new car.
But according to the rules, before the treasure hunters paid, they could not check the condition of the storage unit.
Princeps and his men wanted to open the storage unit, but a security guard refused. "Pay first, then look at the storage unit. Princeps, we've given you face. Just now, you searched unit 11. This one won't do. "
"This is a conspiracy! You've been bribed by the China guys?! "Princeps groaned.
The security guard looked at him, puzzled, and shook his head. "I don't know what you're talking about. Anyway, you have to pay first before you can open this storage unit."
They rushed until the sun went down. On the first day, at least half of the storage units were auctioned off.
As the sun set, it was time to settle the accounts for the storage units that had been auctioned off that day.
Li Du had won two storage units, but he was not in a hurry to open them.
Princeps had also won two storage units. He had no choice but to pay 440,000 dollars. He chose to open the two storage units and check the condition inside.
Although there was an auction the next day, the treasure hunters did not leave. They went back to accumulate energy for the next day's auction. They all stayed behind to see what was going on in unit 32.
The transaction price of 400,000 dollars. If there were no problems, this storage unit would be the king of the auction.
Princeps opened the door of the storage unit with trembling hands. Everyone rushed forward. The people from the Tucson Brotherhood pushed the treasure hunters out. "Keep a distance. What if something is missing?"
"Stupid newbie, the treasure hunters are all clean!" some of the people who were pushed said unhappily.
Princeps personally cleaned up the debris piled up around the car, and then the Lamborghini gradually revealed itself.
As he cleaned up, the treasure hunters who were watching from the outside began to gasp.
There was no problem with the front half of the car. The bright yellow sports car was very beautiful.
But from the middle to the back, there were scratches on the car. Soon, there was damage. When Princeps pushed away the cardboard boxes in front of the car, a dry and tattered car tail appeared in front of everyone!
This Lamborghini was scrapped!
"Oh my God, this car is worthless!"
"400,000 dollars, it's over. Poor Princeps, he's unlucky!"
"It can only be sold as scrap metal. The engine should be finished, and the gearbox is ruined. If there's no problem with the site, it can be sold for tens of thousands of dollars …"
"At least the rear chassis has been damaged. Who would spend tens of thousands of dollars to buy such junk?"
The Lamborghini used a mid-rear engine, which meant that the engine was located in the middle and rear. This kind of sports car did not have a trunk. The front part of the car had a trunk.
It was the opposite of an ordinary family car. The front half was worthless, but the rear half was valuable.
This result stunned the Tucson Brotherhood. They were full of hope, but in the end, they ended up like this. The ups and downs of life were too exciting.
Princeps' mood did not change much. He looked at the broken car expressionlessly, smiled, and walked out of the storage unit. He said, "Close the door and eat."
This scene made many treasure hunters admire him. "Although this guy Princeps is very domineering, he is really a tough guy! Man, I admire you! "
"Close the door and eat!"
"I can't do that. If I lose 400,000 dollars, I will faint! Princeps, you are very good! "
"Close the door and eat!"
"Princeps, are you crazy?"
"Close the door and eat!"
Looking at Princeps, who could only mutter this sentence, the treasure hunters looked at each other strangely, then shook their heads, sighed, and left.
This unlucky guy might really be crazy!
