On the way, they met Godzilla and Big Quinn. Hans stopped the Iron Knight in his Hellcat. He stuck his head out and shouted, "Stop the car!"
Godzilla stopped the car. Big Quinn opened the door and jumped out. "What's wrong?"
As soon as the two cars stopped, the cars behind them slowed down.
When a car passed by, the driver gasped when he saw Big Quinn get out of the car. He then gloated, "This idiot is going to be in trouble!"
"Don't kill him. This guy looks like he's going to kill someone."
An old Ford stopped beside them. A kind old man got out of the car and said, "Young man, he just didn't want to offend you. Don't kill him, okay?"
Big Quinn was used to being treated like a terrorist. He took off his sunglasses and nodded. "Of course, we —"
The old man saw his eyes and immediately returned to the car. "This has nothing to do with us. Let's get out of here."
Big Quinn was speechless.
Li Du laughed. "This is too interesting. Big Quinn's appearance is really lethal."
The black man was helpless. "Boss, don't laugh at me. I've been discriminated against since I was young."
Some people were born with fierce looks, and Big Quinn was one of the best.
Li Du felt that he should learn acting and then enter the film and television industry. He was a gift from God and was naturally suited to play villains.
Back at the hotel, he told Big Quinn his idea.
Big Quinn shook his head vigorously. "No, I can't do that. I don't want to give people the impression that I'm a bad guy, a villain, or a big villain. I don't want my children to have such an impression."
At this time, Hans's phone rang. He took out a piece of paper and marked it. He kept saying "OK, OK."
After he hung up, Li Du asked, "Is there a result from the silent auction?"
Hans pumped his fist and said, "Yeah! Storage units 16 and 58 are in our hands! "
Hearing this, Li Du was overjoyed. Storage unit 16 was the fifth unit, and there was a trench gun inside. Storage unit 58 was an old one. They had bought it for 2,000 dollars, so they should be able to make a profit.
As expected, the fishing gear storage had fallen into the hands of others. They had bid conservatively at that time, so there would definitely be someone willing to pay a higher price.
For some treasure hunters, as long as there was profit, it was better to make money than to not make any.
At night, because he had gotten his hands on the Fairy Statue, which could not be shown to the public, Li Du decided to keep a low profile. He did not go out for dinner, but instead bought some food for dinner.
In addition, Big Quinn's appearance was a little shocking. Walking on the streets at night would inevitably cause panic among some timid people. It would be bad if someone called the police.
He and Godzilla went out to buy food. There was a restaurant in front of the hotel. The two of them packed a pile of food, which was worth 400 dollars!
On the way back, Godzilla was frowning and looking around from time to time. Seeing this, Li Du asked, "What's wrong?"
The Mexican man said strangely, "Someone is following us."
"Did I?" Li Du became vigilant. He was now a man with a small fortune, and he had offended a lot of people. He needed to be more careful.
Godzilla carefully searched the surroundings and finally shook his head. "I might have seen wrongly."
Back at the hotel, Li Du was about to eat when Hans patted him on the shoulder and gestured for him to follow him.
"What's wrong? Eat something first. "Mr. Li was very hungry. He had used the little bug's ability quite a bit today.
Hans held back his excitement and said, "Let me show you something good. We missed something good."
As he spoke, he opened an umbrella after entering the room.
Li Du recognized it and said, "This is the umbrella that came with the car logo? What's wrong? "
Hans pointed to the handle of the umbrella and said, "What's wrong? Buddy, you're asking me what's wrong? If I told you that the market price of this umbrella is 15,000 dollars, how would you react? "
Li Du was shocked. "An umbrella is so expensive? Who used this before? Washington? Lincoln? Roosevelt? "
"It has nothing to do with who used it." Hans sighed deliberately. "Obviously, you haven't ridden in a Rolls-Royce."
Li Du said impatiently, "Of course, I haven't ridden in one. What's wrong?"
Hans raised his finger and said, "There are three iconic details of a Rolls-Royce. The first is the expensive handmade car logo, the second is the front and back doors, and the third is that it has an umbrella!"
As he spoke, he showed the umbrella to Li Du.
The silver handle of the umbrella was engraved with a clear double-R logo. This was the logo of a Rolls-Royce, showing its lineage.
Li Du knew nothing about luxury cars. Before he got the little bug, he had nothing to do with luxury cars. After he got it, although he had money, he had been busy attending auctions and had no time to learn about luxury cars.
Looking at the umbrella, he asked, "Rolls-Royce also produces umbrellas? And they're so expensive? "
Hans said, "No, this umbrella is a Rolls-Royce standard. Some are equipped on the car door, some are under the A-pillar, and some are on the armrests inside the car door. Anyway, they're all available."
Li Du did a search on the Internet. Hans was right: this was a Rolls-Royce standard.
A luxury car was indeed a luxury car. This was especially evident from the details.
Rolls-Royce not only came with umbrellas, but also with an automatic drying device in the storage slot. Therefore, when entering the car on a rainy day, the umbrella would be automatically dried by inserting it into the slot. There was no need to worry about rainwater remaining in the car.
However, besides shielding the sun and the rain, this umbrella had another more important purpose: to prevent exposure.
All along, the owners of Rolls-Royce were either aristocrats or tycoons. They would always be accompanied by sexy women.
Some women would wear short skirts when attending banquets. If they raised their legs when getting out of the car, it would be easy for them to be exposed. This was the purpose of this umbrella. After the driver opened the umbrella, it could protect the women's privacy.
Hans's evaluation of the umbrella was also very accurate. This umbrella was indeed very expensive, costing 15,000 dollars. This was not only because of its Rolls-Royce lineage, but also because of its quality.
The main shaft of the umbrella was made of pure silver. Other parts of the umbrella, such as the ribs, were made of alloy.
In terms of fabric, different cars used different fabrics in different eras. However, it was definitely the most advanced fabric of the time. It was waterproof, light, windproof, and durable.
It was said that every umbrella would undergo a wind test before leaving the factory. It had to be able to withstand a force 12 gale!
This umbrella was well preserved. Like the hood, it was brand new. It was a new product that had not yet been used.
Hans kept opening and closing the umbrella. He smiled and said, "With these two together, we'll definitely be able to sell them for a good price."
Li Du said, "Do you know why I'm feeling strange now?"
"What's strange?"
Li Du said, "A Rolls-Royce is only 400,000 dollars. Now, just the hood hood and the umbrella are already worth 55,000 dollars. Then the engine, gearbox, body base, and interior — these things are not valuable?"
Hans shrugged and said, "Rolls-Royce is not a sports car. It doesn't sell its engine or gearbox. Its selling point is its unique things, like the hood hood, the umbrella, and so on."
This was none of their business. Anyway, it was fine as long as the hood hood and umbrella were valuable.
