The auctioneer thought that the price could still go up, so he continued to raise the price.
However, Li Du did not raise the price. He just looked at the nervous Lucas and his men, amused.
Lucas realized that he had been fooled, and said angrily, "Hey, China bastard, weren't you going to bid?"
Li Du said casually, "Did I say I was going to bid? Did you hear wrongly? I just asked the auctioneer to continue bidding because I really didn't want to hear your voice. "
The auctioneer called out "81,000 dollars" three times, but no one followed.
So, he patted Lucas on the shoulder and said, "81,000 dollars, guys. This good storage unit belongs to this good guy. Let's congratulate him. Mad Bull Lucas has won the first storage unit!"
Li Du applauded and laughed, "Mr. Lucas is really awesome, but he's an idiot."
However, the Mexican man ignored him. He was now immersed in joy.
He had successfully won storage unit 31. He had used this storage unit to regain some reputation and trust. He was happy and proud that he had killed two birds with one stone.
The only pity was that the storage unit was a little expensive. However, there was no other way. After he had spent money to buy the specific information of the storage unit, he knew that there was no way to get the LED advertising screen.
It was precisely because he knew that there was no way to get it that he had revealed the specific information of the storage unit in advance to gain fame. In the end, he got what he wanted.
Storage unit 31 was locked. Next, they entered the second storage unit, which was number 47.
The storage door opened, and neatly arranged, high-quality industrial sewing machines appeared in front of everyone.
Seeing these sewing machines, the treasure hunters gasped in surprise, and then the bidding started again.
"D * mn, Japanese sewing machines, specially used to produce jeans."
"This is good stuff. Shine the light over, let me see what brand it is."
"Get it, f * ck, we can make money today!"
When it was Hans and Li Du's turn, Li Du shone a strong flashlight on the machine, and Hans took out a pair of binoculars to carefully look at the nameplate on the machine.
Seeing this, a long-faced man beside Lucas mocked, "Wow, you guys are really well-equipped. You even brought binoculars. Do you want me to give you a command car?"
Hans glanced at him and said, "Sure, as long as you can drive it over, I'm willing to accept it. What's wrong? You have a problem with us using binoculars? Will they rob you or will they peep at you? "
"Peeping is impossible. We don't have donkey fetishes," Mr. Li added.
Binoculars were common equipment for treasure hunters. Half of the seventy to eighty treasure hunters were carrying binoculars, and when they heard his words, they burst into laughter.
The long-faced man was flustered and exasperated. Lucas glared at him and signaled him to shut up. In his heart, he was cursing him for being an idiot, cursing him for using the map to scold him. The crowd he had worked so hard to build up was destroyed just like that.
After looking at the machines in the warehouse, Hans said, "These are produced by RB Mitsubishi Machinery, heavy-duty sewing machines. Many garment factories will like them, and so will grocery stores. With so many machines, the value is very high."
"Is it bigger than the advertising screen?" Li Du asked.
The long-faced man laughed when he heard this. "Buddy, you still haven't given up? If each of these machines could sell for a thousand dollars, then thank God. How many machines were there? Are there 100 of them? "
"Are you still delusional enough to prove Lucas wrong? I'm sorry to disappoint you, but this storage unit isn't even half as valuable as the previous one. "
"Half? No, no, no, it's good enough if it's even one-fifth of its value! "
Hearing the disdain of the treasure hunters, Li Du said, "You're right, but there's a premise — the advertising screen is still working. What if there's a problem with it?"
As soon as he said this, the treasure hunters who were laughing at him stopped laughing.
Lucas said confidently, "That's impossible. According to the information I've received, the advertising screen is not broken."
Li Du gave a mysterious smile. "May God bless you."
Seeing his smile, some treasure hunters became curious. "Li, do you have any other information?"
Lucas's confidence was destroyed by his laughter. After all, he had been taught a lesson by Li Du once. However, he still stubbornly said, "Don't believe this guy, he just wants to be a clown and play to the gallery."
The auctioneer raised his hand, and the bidding for the storage unit began. "Everyone has seen it, so let's cut to the chase. This is also a great storage unit, and I want to give it a price that matches its value. For example, five thousand dollars. Anyone?"
Hans immediately said, "Five thousand is fine."
"Five thousand dollars has been accepted, what about five thousand one hundred, five thousand one hundred, five thousand one hundred, anyone?"
"Yes!"
"Five thousand five hundred dollars, five thousand five hundred dollars?"
"Six thousand dollars!"
"Eight thousand dollars!"
"Ten thousand dollars!"
There was no doubt about the value of this storage unit. Without the auctioneer bidding, the treasure hunters raised the price themselves. Soon, the price reached fifteen thousand dollars.
Hans looked at Li Du inquiringly, and Li Du nodded.
There were a total of twenty-five sewing machines in the storage unit, but only twenty were exposed. There were five more in the corner, so as long as they could get it for less than twenty thousand dollars, they would make a profit.
Hans directly said, "Twenty thousand dollars."
This bid made the treasure hunters shake their heads. "Twenty thousand dollars is no fun. There's no profit, and we might even lose money."
"These country bumpkins are really rich. This storage unit belongs to them."
"Could there be something we haven't seen? Probably not. Other than these machines, there's nothing valuable in this storage unit. "
Hans looked at Lucas and said, "Didn't you want us to take the Phoenix storage unit?"
Lucas laughed coldly. "I won't let you take the most valuable storage unit! This kind of trash? Ha, if you want to make a loss, that's your freedom! "
"This is trash? There were dozens of people competing for it just now. You're saying dozens of people are competing for trash? "Hans immediately pushed him to the position of the treasure hunters' public enemy.
Lucas was smart. He continued to laugh coldly, but did not say anything. He whistled and crossed his arms as he walked to the next storage unit.
The door of storage unit 48 opened, and there were sighs of disappointment. The treasure hunters shook their heads one after another. "This is a trash storage unit."
The auctioneer's bid was also very low. "One thousand dollars, one thousand dollars. Look at all the denim inside. It's definitely worth one thousand dollars!"
Hans was the first to bid again. "Sure, me!"
Seeing him bid so quickly, the treasure hunters who thought this was a trash storage unit became suspicious again. They squeezed through the door to look inside, and the flashlight lit up the storage unit.
Of course, they could not see anything, and could only leave in confusion.
Lucas laughed. "There's nothing inside, guys. This is a trash storage unit. Country bumpkins like to pick up trash!"
"Then give it to him. Let him help clean up the trash in Phoenix. Anyway, the Chinese like to do this kind of work. I've seen many cleaners who are Chinese."
"They're born to do this kind of work. I've heard that many Chinese smuggled into the United States to be cleaners, haha," Lucas laughed maliciously.
Li Du was also laughing, and his smile was getting colder and colder.
He put the little bug back into storage unit 31, found the LED display, and drilled into it. He began to absorb the time in the light-emitting diodes, destroying them one by one. Just now, he did not go too far. The LED display could still be repaired. This time, there was no value in repairing it.
As a Chinese under the influence of Confucian culture, he had always scrupulously abided by the principle of repaying a drop of water with a spring of water, and tried to be kind to others.
However, after living in the United States for a year, he found that good people could not survive in North America, where violence and barbarism were advocated.
This was especially so in the American business circle, where the law of the jungle prevailed, and the weak were prey to the strong.
In such an atmosphere, it was too stupid to adhere to the principle of repaying evil with good and repaying evil with good.
Li Du did not take the initiative to be a bad person, but if anyone bullied him, he could become even more evil and ferocious!
If people do not offend me, I will not offend them. If people offend me, no matter how far away I am, I will kill them!
