The second warehouse contained a large number of books. Some of the prop books looked very old. If they appeared in a library or museum auction, it would definitely cause a bloodbath.
Even here, there were still many people willing to pay a high price.
These prop books might not be antique books, but if they had appeared in some good movies, they would be valuable, and there would always be people willing to collect them.
Li Du did not see any famous prop books, so he did not participate in the bidding. He estimated the value of the unit to be 10,000 dollars.
In the end, it only took a short 40 seconds for the bidding price to break through 10,000 yuan and finally stopped at 22,000 yuan.
This time, Frank and York didn't bid. They just sneered at the crowd.
As they walked towards the third storage unit, Frank purposely bumped into Li Du. Then, with a provocative look, he asked, "Oh, oh, I actually bumped into you? Aiya, do you want me to apologize? "
Li Du patted his clothes and said, "You don't have to apologize. What's the use of an apology from a mental patient?"
Frank was immediately enraged. "Son of a b * tch, who are you calling a mental patient? You damned China dude, I'm going to smash your head! "
York stopped his companion and said impatiently, "Get out of the way, Chinese. Don't stir up trouble!"
Li Du was so angry that he laughed. These guys were really overbearing. Who was the one stirring up trouble?
He pointed at Frank and said, "You'd better go to a mental hospital. There's something wrong with your brain, and there's something wrong with your mental state. Believe me, you will die early if you continue like this! "
"F * * k you!" Frank swore at him.
Hans said in a low voice, "His mania is more serious than the rumors say. You are right. He will die of mental illness sooner or later."
Li Du said, "No, he died because he provoked someone he shouldn't have. Judging from his current state, he won't be far from death."
Compared to the first warehouse, the third warehouse was smaller. It was filled with shelves. Some were made of wood, and some were made of iron. The shelves were all close to each other, and there was not much space between them.
When it was time for the treasure hunters who used the drone to visit, something interesting happened. The drone flew in and got stuck on a metal frame, unable to fly out.
The treasure hunter panicked. He manipulated the iPad and cursed, "D * mn it, d * mn it, d * mn it! Don't get stuck in there, God forbid, God! Come out, come out, come out … "
Seeing this, Li Du laughed. Someone next to him gloated and said, "This guy is going to be unlucky."
"What's wrong?" he asked.
Hans explained, "According to the rules of storage auctions, after the bidding ends, everything in the storage belongs to the treasure hunter who won the bid."
Li Du suddenly understood. "Oh, if this drone doesn't fly out, it will belong to the treasure hunter who got the storage unit?"
"Yes."
The drone was stuck inside. The treasure hunter left in a daze, his face full of dejection.
Li Du took a good look at the drone as he toured the storage unit. It was a new model and had two cameras. It looked like a good product.
Hans looked at Amazon on his phone and laughed. "Two thousand dollars. It's worth two thousand dollars. This is the latest aircraft imported from China. It is said that it can fly to an altitude of 1,500 meters. "
Li Du went up to take a look and said, "This doesn't even have a camera. With a camera, it would be worth at least 2,500 to 3,000 dollars, right?"
There were a lot of porcelain, dolls, and dolls in storage unit 3. These things were already worth a lot of money. With this drone, it would be worth even more.
The owner of the drone pleaded with the auctioneer, "Can you let me go in and take it out? I promise I won't touch anything. "
The auctioneer shook his head. "No, this is against the rules."
"Yeah, we have to respect the rules. Otherwise, why would we set the rules?" Someone laughed, deliberately using the words of the owner of the drone to stop him.
York suddenly walked over. He patted the treasure hunter's shoulder warmly and said, "Brother, don't worry. I will bid for this storage unit and return the drone to you."
The treasure hunter was flattered. "Thank you, thank you, Mr. York."
York shrugged. "You should thank Frank. You helped him before. This is his way of repaying you."
The treasure hunter was stunned and asked with a blank face, "Really?"
York whispered something into his ear, and the treasure hunter looked like he had a sudden realization. "Oh, so it's that matter. Frank still remembers? He's really a good guy. "
The viewing ended and the auction began.
The auctioneer seemed to be unhappy with the treasure hunter. When he was bidding, he shouted, "The starting bid for this storage unit is 3,000 dollars, 3,000 dollars, 3,000 dollars. As everyone can see, just the drone inside is worth more than 2,500 dollars …"
The owner of the drone cried out, "3,000 dollars!"
He still wanted to try harder.
"4,000 dollars …"
"Five thousand dollars!"
"I bid 10,000 dollars!" York waved his hand, his face full of arrogance.
Compared to the 60,000 dollars for the first storage unit, 10,000 dollars for this storage unit was not considered high.
However, the first storage unit was huge and had a lot of things. This storage unit was filled with dolls, dolls, and porcelain. It was not easy to sell it for 10,000 dollars.
Frank pointed to the owner of the drone and said, "We are a man of our word. If we say we will get this storage unit, we will definitely get it …"
"20,000 dollars." Li Du did not wait for him to finish and spoke first.
Frank and York's faces darkened. The former could not help but curse, "D * mn it."
York shrugged his shoulders at the owner of the drone and said, "Seems like someone doesn't want us to do this."
The owner of the drone was flustered and exasperated. He shouted at Li Du, "Son of a b * tch, Chinaman, you're so bad. Why don't you go back to those disgusting Asian slums?"
A young black man with a head full of braids said, "21,000 dollars!"
York and Frank looked at each other, shook their heads, and walked to the next storage unit.
The owner of the drone stopped them and said, "Help me get this storage unit. I don't want to lose my drone."
York said, "We'll buy you a new one. 20,000 dollars for this broken storage unit? Ha, unless we're out of our minds. "
Li Du only wanted to disgust the two of them. Seeing that they had given up, he did not continue bidding. The storage unit was bought by the black man for 21,000 dollars.
Seeing this, the owner of the drone was furious. He chased after him and scolded, "You're such a cowardly sissy. You'll get what you deserve, you narrow-minded b * tch!"
Hans glared at him and wanted to scold him back. Li Du shook his head and said, "Don't worry about him. Get ready for the next storage unit."
The storage auction progressed quickly. There were too many people. It took one and a half hours to finish looking at a storage unit. At this rate, it would be evening after six or seven storage units were auctioned.
In fact, the situation was more optimistic. At the start of the third storage unit, the number of treasure hunters decreased.
Many people left one after another. They obviously did not bring much money with them. They knew that there was nothing to be gained here.
As the number of treasure hunters decreased, the speed of the storage auctions increased.
Finally, in the afternoon, the first ten storage units were auctioned off. The eleventh storage unit was opened.
