After unit 28 was unit 47. There was an ice maker in this unit. It was made of stainless steel and was in good condition. It looked as good as new.
Li Du did not participate in the bidding for this unit. Everyone could see the ice maker, so the price of the unit was naturally high.
Indeed, the starting price of the unit was 500 dollars. After four or five bids, it reached 1,000 dollars. After another bidding war, it reached 2,000 dollars, and finally stopped at 2,800 dollars.
Hearing this price, Hans pursed his lips. "It better have something valuable in there. Otherwise, this guy won't make any money. This Panasonic ice maker can only sell for 3,500 dollars at most."
After another four units were sold, unit 142 was put up for auction in the afternoon.
This unit had a new set of European neoclassical furniture, including a long table, a long sofa, two armchairs, two small tables, and an exquisite carpet.
Li Du coughed lightly. Hans got the signal and whispered, "How much is the right price?"
He saw that there was not much valuable in the unit, so he had to ask Li Du for help.
Unit 142 was a medium-sized unit, with an area of 100 square meters. There was a lot of rubbish in there. The furniture was packed separately in wooden boxes, so they could not be seen from the outside.
Li Du thought for a while and said, "I think we can make a profit if it's less than 1,000 dollars."
He had checked online that a similar set of furniture would cost 2,000 dollars. To be safe, he felt that if he got it at half the price, he could still make a profit.
The auctioneer raised his hand and started to shout, "This is a very, very, very big unit. There might be something valuable buried in it. So I'll bid 200 dollars, 200 dollars, 200 dollars. Who wants to accept? Raise your hand and let me see where you are!"
Hans looked around quietly. Two people raised their hands at the same time, and some hesitated whether to raise their hands. That way, he knew what to do.
The auctioneer was about to continue when he raised his number plate and said, "500 dollars!"
For a storage unit auction, the price was not high, but it was not low either. It was considered an adventurous price, which meant that bidding above 500 dollars would be risky.
The treasure hunters could afford it, but they needed to see something of value. What was displayed in this storage unit was not worth 1,000 dollars. It was not worth it to risk half the price.
Hans's bid was ingenious. The treasure hunters shook their heads. The auctioneer pointed at him happily.
"Five hundred dollars going once, going once. If no one is willing to increase the bid, then it will be the second time. The second time, everyone hurry up and grab the opportunity, because the next time I bid, it means the end. Very well, no one is willing, right? Then this storage unit belongs to you, buddy!"
Hans whistled and said, "God bless us. We finally got something today."
Li Du carried Ah Meow and walked to his side. Seeing the two of them and the ocelot, someone asked, "Hey, Big Fox, I heard that a week ago in Havasu, you guys got 30,000 dollars from a cat?"
Hans laughed. "Are you kidding me? A cat is not God. How can it help us get money?"
"Don't believe Big Fox's words. He's very cunning. Whatever he denies must be true."
"Is that the cat? Sh * t, is that an ocelot? Looks like they picked up quite a few good treasures. Ordinary people can't afford to raise that bad boy. "
"What's in the storage unit this time? What did you see to make such a firm offer? Didn't you get the storage unit anyway? Tell us about it. "
More people agreed and asked him what was in the storage unit.
Hans continued to laugh. "I'm not God. How would I know what's in there? I just don't want to go back empty-handed. Really, what's with the look in your eyes? "
There were still two more storage units. Li Du knew that there was nothing valuable in there, but he still followed them. Otherwise, his god-like ability would make Hans suspicious.
In the afternoon, after paying the money, they started to tidy up the storage unit.
There were many posters in storage unit 028. Hans looked at them and shook his head, saying that they were worthless. They were all commercial posters from the past two years. The items on the posters were miscellaneous. It seemed that the storage unit belonged to a printing shop.
"But we can use them to sell waste paper. Maybe a few dozen dollars." Hans picked up a poster and laughed. Then he looked at the item on the poster in a daze.
The poster was made for a lingerie company. There was an extremely sexy girl looking at them shyly.
Li Du was not surprised. He tidied up the storage unit himself, threw out a few cardboard boxes, and took out a small color printer.
Seeing that there was something valuable, Hans finally shifted his gaze and said, "This printer is good. See if it works. If it works, we can exchange it for a new set of watercolors. It can sell for a hundred dollars."
Li Du said, "There's too much trash here. We can't fit it all in the truck, right?"
Hans said, "Leave it to me. It's a piece of cake."
He drove the pickup truck over and loaded the useless garbage into it. Then, he drove away noisily, not knowing what to do with the garbage.
Li Du continued to tidy up the storage unit. Then he found the silver tableware in a suitcase: plates, knives, forks, and candlesticks. It was a perfect set.
Looking at the color, the tableware was not pure silver. He was sure that the quality of the tableware was because of the brand. The tableware had the logo of Holiday, a company famous for making silver tableware.
In storage unit 142 was a set of brand new and luxurious furniture. There were long and small tables made of walnut wood, classic sofas and carpets. When the treasure hunters next to him saw him dragging out the furniture, they were so envious that their eyes were bloodshot.
Hans drove back. When he saw the tableware and furniture, he cheered and shouted excitedly, "I knew it was right to trust you. It's another big harvest!"
The furniture, tableware, printer, and other things that could be sold for money were first loaded into the car and sent back to Hannah's small apartment building. The rest was all garbage, which was finally loaded into another car.
Driving on the road, they arrived at a community trash bin storage area. Hans pressed a button, and the jack under the car slowly rose, pouring out all the garbage in the car.
Li Du was shocked. "Sh * t, this is how you deal with it?"
This was illegal dumping. A small amount was a moral issue, but a large amount was a little illegal. If the police caught it, they could be fined.
Hans laughed and said, "Although it's a little immoral, we uncultured people are like this. We do whatever is convenient."
Li Du didn't want to do that, so he went to the side to practice the ability of the bug clone.
After a while, a Toyota Prado slowly drove over.
The car just happened to pass by the bug. Li Du was bored, so he let the bug jump into the car to see who was inside.
Little Worm passed through the base of the car and entered the driver's seat. He saw a cold yet beautiful face and a desert yellow uniform. A golden police badge hung on her perky chest, and a flexible and slender waist with a baton and a gun holster!
It was the police!
Li Du was shocked. He quickly waved his hand to slow down time and let the bug run back. Then he jumped into the car and shouted to Hans, "F * ck, run, the police are here!"
