February 15th, 8: 30 a.m., the Cactus Storage Company's auction was about to begin.
Phoenix was a big city, after all, so there were more treasure hunters than in Flagstaff. This auction attracted more than 100 people.
With more than 100 people competing for 11 storage units, the competition was more intense because no one wanted to go home empty-handed.
It was no different from the previous two auctions. An auctioneer read out the rules very quickly and added a piece of information at the end.
"Due to certain reasons, the auctions for units 104, 112, 180, and 181 have been canceled. There are only seven storage units left, so everyone better seize the opportunity …"
Listening to the message, Li Du was a little confused. "D * mn, how did this happen?"
Hans, on the other hand, was calm. "Relax, buddy, this is normal. Many people only renew their contracts on the last day. As long as the storage contract is renewed, it can't be auctioned."
But what made Li Du feel better was that the two storage units he was interested in were still there: the drum set unit was 140, and the piano unit was 141.
As for the Yamaha motorcycle? He had come early in the morning to look for it, but still couldn't find any trace of it.
The first storage unit was opened. Li Du was thinking about where the motorcycle could be when Hans, who was smoking, suddenly threw his cigarette away and cursed, "D * mn it!"
A Chevrolet van drove in. The door opened, and a big black man walked out, supporting a big Mexican man. The latter's footsteps were weak. It was Lucas, whom Li Du had f * cked.
When Lucas saw the two of them, his pale face regained some color. He stared at them fiercely and shouted, "F * ck! Big Fox, you son of a b * tch, I knew you were going to set me up! "
Hans pretended not to hear him and continued to look at the storage units.
Lucas shouted, "Listen up, guys. I'll tell you a piece of insider news. There's a Yamaha motorcycle worth at least 20,000 dollars in this auction! Everyone, watch carefully! "
As soon as he said this, it was like someone had lit a firecracker in a pile of wet cow dung. The scene exploded.
"There's a motorcycle? D * mn, I didn't notice. Is there one in this storage unit? "
"Where did you get this information from? Yamaha motorcycle, I have to make a phone call. "
"It's true that Lucas has a bunch of scoundrels, but if he has a motorcycle, why would he reveal this information?"
Hearing Lucas's words, Hans was furious. "Sh * t, why didn't you get this b * tch drunk to death?"
Lucas saw Hans's exasperated expression and heard the doubts of the group. He raised his hand and said, "Trust me, my information is absolutely reliable! I am now Gore-D-Roger. I am the Pirate King. I will leave the treasure to you. I will not participate in it! "
"One Piece said those words before his head was chopped off. Are you going to die, poor Mexican?" Hans immediately found a retort.
With regards to this piece of news, everyone's attitude was that they would rather believe it than not. Especially after seeing that Lucas really didn't participate in the auction, they believed him even more.
Hans sighed and said, "I didn't expect this guy to use such a move. Do you believe me now? I knew this bastard would get some insider information too! "
Li Du said, "I was wrong about you. But how did you find him so quickly?"
"Because when he's not participating in the auction, he'll definitely be at his cousin's Mexican restaurant. I know him too well. This son of a b * tch!"
Lucas's information made the competition fierce. There was nothing valuable in the first storage unit, but the final transaction price was 1,100 dollars.
Hans also made a bid, but stopped at 200 dollars. He shook his head and said, "The things in this storage unit look like they're worth at most 400 dollars. More than 1,000 dollars, ha, I'll definitely lose money!"
After storage unit 55 was storage unit 74. There were some large sealed boxes in this storage unit that could accommodate the motorcycle, so the competition was even fiercer. The final transaction price was 2,500 dollars!
Li Du looked at the white man, who was gloating after winning the bid, as if he was looking at an idiot.
It was clearly written on those big boxes that they were filled with Canon-Manifold paper, Canon copy paper!
A few hours later, the fourth storage unit, which was storage unit 140, was opened.
After confirming the items inside, Li Du gave Hans a look and said, "Get it!"
Since they couldn't find the most valuable storage unit, they had to get the drum set and piano units. Otherwise, they would have lost money coming to Phoenix.
The drum set was a product of DW Company. Among similar products, DW's was the best.
DW drums were usually not sold in stores. They were custom-made, and the customer had to provide a detailed prescription and pay a deposit. The goods would be delivered in four to six months.
Li Du did a quick check. The lowest DW drum set cost about 3,000 dollars, so this storage unit could be won with 1,500 dollars.
The auctioneer called out the starting bid at 100 dollars. "Storage unit 140, storage unit 140, storage unit 140, storage unit 140, you guys already know that there might be a Yamaha in there, so 100 dollars is definitely …"
"One thousand five hundred dollars!" Hans shouted.
The group of treasure hunters was shocked. Li Du was shocked too. He shouted at him, "Are you f * cking crazy?"
The auctioneer beamed. "One thousand five hundred, one thousand five hundred, one thousand five hundred. Is there anyone willing to bid a higher price? I want one thousand six hundred, one thousand six hundred, one thousand six hundred, one thousand six hundred …"
The treasure hunters hesitated. They weren't sure of Hans's determination, so no one made a bid.
The auctioneer called out two more times, then pointed to Hans and said, "Very good, buddy. Congratulations, you guys got this storage unit. Let me see your number. Very good, number 55!"
The door to storage unit 141 opened again. Li Du coughed and said, "Sorry, Big Fox. I shouldn't have doubted you just now."
Hans was shocked. "Weren't you acting?"
Li Du made a prompt decision. "Yes, I was acting. Get this storage unit too!"
He remembered very clearly that there was a grand piano in this warehouse. If it could be used, it could sell for tens of thousands of dollars based on its appearance.
Hans was shocked again. "Get this one too? Which storage unit is the motorcycle in? "
Li Du said helplessly, "I don't have X-ray vision, Big Fox. My judgment of storage units comes from a secret technique passed down in my family. You can think of it as witchcraft. I don't know which storage unit has the motorcycle, but these two storage units are the most valuable."
"How valuable is it?"
"If it's good, it can sell for tens of thousands of dollars!"
The starting bid for this storage unit was also 100 dollars. As soon as the auctioneer opened his mouth, Hans shouted again, "1,500 dollars!"
Lucas, who was resting and watching the commotion from afar, became anxious. He shouted, "This Flagstaff bumpkin also knows that there are motorcycles in storage units. His information is more accurate than mine!"
His words were vicious. Someone immediately followed up with a bid. "1,600 dollars!"
Hans smiled disdainfully. "3,000 dollars!"
The old auctioneer was overjoyed. He quickly ran over and pointed at Hans and started bidding.
A fat man followed up with a 100 dollars bid. Hans waved his hand proudly and said, "4,000 dollars!"
Li Du couldn't help but say, "Sh * t, my brother, what's wrong with you today?!"
This time, he was really acting.
