"Five hundred dollars. The current price is five hundred dollars, so I'm going to bid six hundred dollars. Six hundred dollars, is there anyone willing to accept —"
"Me!" Rambis's voice rang out.
"Six hundred dollars, six hundred dollars, then I think —"
"Seven hundred!" Hans said, not to be outdone.
The old man nodded. "Very good. Looks like this storage unit has attracted the attention of someone who knows their stuff. But seven hundred dollars is obviously —"
"Eight hundred dollars!" Rambis interrupted him.
Without waiting for the old man to bid, Hans shouted, "One thousand dollars!"
The moment the two of them shouted, everyone understood that they were going to fight. The few treasure hunters who were about to bid stepped back and watched the show with their arms crossed.
As the auctioneer, the old man liked to watch this kind of scene. He got a commission from the auction. The higher the auction price, the more he would earn.
Just as Hans finished bidding, Rambis gave him the middle finger. "One thousand one hundred dollars!"
"One thousand five hundred dollars!" Hans said, clenching his teeth.
The onlookers whistled, and some of the onlookers even applauded and shouted, "Cool!"
Taking advantage of the chaos, Hans winked at Li Du.
Li Du's expression changed, and he pushed Hans. "F * ck! You b * stard, why are you bidding like this?! Didn't we discuss this beforehand — "
Hans pushed him again. "Don't talk nonsense, Li. I won't go back empty-handed, and I won't lose to this b * tch Rambis!"
"You have to have money to lose!" Li Du said sternly. "You're blinded by hatred!"
The two started arguing, and Rambis did not continue bidding. The auctioneer quickly said, "One thousand five hundred dollars, one thousand five hundred dollars is not a high price. You know, there might be a Harley Davidson hidden in this storage unit, so I say one thousand six hundred dollars, one thousand six hundred dollars. Is there anyone willing to accept?"
"Yes." Rambis continued bidding.
Hans squeezed his pocket, gritted his teeth, and followed up. "Two thousand dollars!"
"Wow, has Big Fox gone mad?" one of the treasure hunters exclaimed.
Rambis seemed to want to raise the price, but Li Du reached out and pulled Rambis back. "Let's stop here. Follow me!"
As a result, Rambis did not raise the price. Instead, he made a throat-slitting gesture and mocked, "Trying to leave? Two unlucky bastards, prepare to fork out money to buy this pile of rubbish! You want to play treasure hunting without a brain? You should go pick up dog poop! "
The auctioneer looked at the crowd and continued to bid, "Two thousand, two thousand. Is there anyone willing to take 2,100?"
Hans looked at the crowd expectantly, but there was a hint of annoyance on his face, as if he was hoping that someone would increase the bid and take the unit away.
Seeing this, the onlookers shook their heads.
The auctioneer shouted twice, but no one raised the bid. He waved his hand and pointed at Hans. "Congratulations, Big Fox. You've won this precious storage unit!"
Hans immediately became dejected. Rambis and his gang roared with laughter. A black man even shook his butt at them and scolded, "Eat our farts, paupers!"
Same old process: pay, open the storage unit, and start treasure hunting.
Hans was still the one to clean up Li Du's underlings. He picked up an electric fan and said, "Let's see if this works. If it does, I think we can sell it for 50 dollars. Of course, I can also give it to you as a reward. You acted well just now."
Li Du shrugged. "I'm just a rookie who just graduated from the New York Film Academy. You're the actor. Your expression of anticipation and annoyance at the end was simply amazing. Even Tom Hanks couldn't have acted that d * mned look! "
Needless to say, the argument between the two was just an act.
When they had decided to bid for the fifth storage unit, Hans had already guessed that Rambis would compete with him. There were also another 50 to 60 people who were eyeing the unit.
In order to successfully win this storage unit, he had designed this act. First, he would provoke Rambis and enter the bidding phase. This way, the others would not participate in the fight for this storage unit.
And Rambis did not have much money left. He had already won three storage units. The fact that he did not bid on the fourth unit proved this point.
Hence, Hans increased the bid fiercely, causing Li Du to argue with him. This gave the impression that Li Du was not interested in this storage unit, but was fighting with Rambis.
When the bid was slightly higher, Rambis did not dare to continue bidding. He wanted to cheat Hans, not actually buy this storage unit.
Their plan was successful. Two thousand dollars for a Harley motorcycle was not considered expensive.
After packing up a large pile of miscellaneous items, the storage unit was empty, leaving only a pile of cardboard boxes.
Seeing this, Hans was a little anxious. He asked, "Weren't you sure that the motorcycle was here?"
Li Du continued to act. He hesitated and said, "I said before, there's a 50 percent chance."
Hans picked up a flat cardboard box. He opened it and looked inside. His face was filled with ecstasy. "Sh * t, sh * t! This is a tire! It's a tire! "
Li Du also pretended to be very excited and ran over to take a look. Hans opened the box, and a large black tire with a shiny silver wheel hub that still emitted the smell of rubber appeared.
"An 18-inch tire with seven layers of chrome-plated Agitator wheels! God! God! God! This is part of the Harley's equipment! "Hans shouted.
His shout was very loud, and Rambis and the others from the neighboring storage unit 4 and the nearby storage unit 3 all ran over.
After discovering the tire, Hans, who had been a little tired from all the work, was once again full of energy. In no time, he opened all the boxes at the back.
Then, another tire, the front, the engine, the fairing, the seat, and all the other parts appeared. With a simple combination, the domineering Harley Glider appeared in front of the group.
Seeing this, Rambis spat and scolded, "D * mn it, you're really a dog sh * t guy. Lucky dog sh * t, huh?"
Hans gave him the middle finger. "Get lost, b * tch. We spent two thousand dollars to get the Harley. How much did you spend? Seven thousand? Eight thousand? What did you get in the auction? "
Rambis sneered, "We have two Yamahas in storage unit 1. Our earnings might not be less than yours."
Li Du looked at him as if he was looking at an idiot. "You're also a rookie treasure hunter, right? Can't you see that the two Yamahas don't have engines? "
Hearing this, Rambis and the others panicked. However, he still had the attitude of a boss. He waved his hand and said, "Don't believe what this kid says. We'll deal with them one by one."
The most valuable items in storage unit 3 were the two scrapped motorcycles. Their parts could be sold for 200 dollars. Storage unit 2 was slightly better, with a self-assembled motorcycle that could be sold for 500 to 600 dollars.
Rambis and the others were most looking forward to storage unit 1. After all, there were two brand new Yamahas there. However, when they looked closer, they were all dumbfounded. The motorcycles really did not have engines!
Unfortunately, the most valuable part of a motorcycle was its engine. Without an engine, it was worthless.
