The only thing Li Du regretted was that although there were many storage units up for auction, they were not worth much. It was not worth it to fall out with Frank over this.
Of course, he knew very well that the main reason Hans took action was to help him vent his anger. He appreciated this favor!
After the first three storage units were auctioned off, the fourth storage unit started.
Godzilla and Big Quinn entered the unit and stood behind Li Du.
Some of the treasure hunters who had wanted to provoke Li Du quietened down, and the rumors about him also disappeared.
Li Du knew that this must have been Hans' idea to arrange for the two of them to come here.
In the fourth storage unit, the valuable items were some hair clippers, hair dryers, perms, and the like. The owner of this unit was probably a hairdresser.
However, to Li Du, the value of these items was still too low. When the auctioneer called out a bid, he only bid once and then shook his head and backed out.
Some of the treasure hunters from Los Angeles wanted to mock him, but looking at Big Quinn's ferocious-looking face, they kept quiet.
The treasure hunters knew very well that if they angered Li Du, the ones who would take action would be these two tower-like men. And these two men would not be as gentle as Hans!
York also did not make a move. After viewing this storage unit, he moved on to the next one.
At this moment, his back view was proud and lonely, a little like a lone ranger.
Li Du was still not interested in the next storage unit. However, he still made a bid and even followed the price to the end. The purpose of this was to hide his true intentions.
It was only when the eighth storage unit opened and the box containing the engine and high-pressure nozzle appeared that he perked up.
The auctioneer raised his arm and shouted, "Okay, the viewing is over. Let's start the bidding, guys. This storage unit looks very beautiful, so I will now start with a price of 400 dollars. Any problems?"
Li Du nodded lazily, and the auctioneer pointed at him.
York followed and made a bid. "Five hundred dollars!"
"Six hundred dollars!"
"Seven hundred dollars!"
"Eight hundred dollars!"
"One thousand dollars!"
The price rose rapidly from 400 dollars to 1,000 dollars.
At this point, the price paused for a while. Li Du nodded again and said, "One thousand one hundred dollars!"
York followed again. "One thousand two hundred dollars!"
The other treasure hunters shook their heads and left. From the outside, the items in this storage unit could only be sold for about a thousand dollars. If they spent more than a thousand dollars, it would not be worth it to buy the storage unit.
This was Li Du's advantage. He had the little bug, which was like having x-ray vision. He had an absolute advantage when choosing storage units.
Li Du continued, "One thousand three hundred dollars."
York said, "One thousand four hundred dollars."
Li Du looked at him with a smile and continued, "1,500 dollars."
At this point, York stopped bidding. He shook his head and left.
Compared to Frank and most treasure hunters, York had a rare calmness. He would never engage in a battle of wills with others during an auction.
Li Du liked to challenge these kinds of people. If Frank were here, it would be very difficult for him to take down this storage unit, and he would have to fork out a lot of money.
There was no need for him to hide his true intentions, so he did not bid for the remaining storage units. Instead, he called for Godzilla and Big Quinn to start clearing the storage units.
In the parking lot outside, Hans squatted down in the shade and stared at Frank. The two of them were like two fighting cocks, ready to fight at any moment.
In addition, there were two strong Rottweilers beside Frank. One of them had a bandage on its face.
The two Rottweilers squatted obediently beside Hans because there was a cold-looking ocelot lying next to him.
Ah Meow was smaller than the Rottweilers, but its combat ability was much higher. One of the Rottweilers had suffered from Ah Meow and knew how powerful it was.
Seeing Li Du come out, Hans asked, "Done?"
Li Du nodded, then glanced at Frank. "I really don't know why he chose York to be his partner. Is it because York is good-looking? That guy is like a blind man — he can't see anything. "
Frank's face was gloomy as he gave Li Du the middle finger. Li Du responded with a bright smile, which infuriated Frank.
However, he could not retaliate because he knew his partner's standard. Compared to ordinary treasure hunters, York was naturally outstanding. However, compared to Li Du, he was not good enough.
The reason why Frank provoked Li Du the moment they met was not only because they had a conflict at the Warner Brothers storage auction, but also because he was jealous of Li Du.
Many people were jealous of Li Du. The news that a genius treasure hunter had appeared in Arizona had spread throughout the industry.
Frank had used two and a half years to join the Hundred Thousand Club from the Ten Thousand Club, and that was with luck and his ability.
But what about Li Du? He had used only a fraction of his time, and this was because someone had messed with him. Otherwise, he would have joined the Hundred Thousand Club!
With such ability, how could people not be jealous?
After packing up the storage unit, they drove off in preparation to attend the storage auction held by the storage company located between Expo Park and the University of Southern California.
Hans was not very satisfied with his harvest this time. He said, "Only a fire extinguisher? This thing was probably taken from a fire extinguisher. It's not bad, but it's not worth much. "
Li Du said, "I can guarantee, brother, that this is the most valuable thing in the entire storage company."
"What did that idiot York get?"
"A pile of dog sh * t."
Hans was satisfied with this answer. "That's good."
The next day, they got up and set off. They were driving on the highway when a Hummer Jeep drove next to the Iron Knight, then suddenly sped up and changed lanes, suddenly appearing in front of them.
Big Quinn, who was driving, was shocked and subconsciously shouted, "F * ck!"
He was an experienced driver and reacted quickly. He immediately stepped on the accelerator and turned the steering wheel at the same time, causing the car to miss the Hummer Jeep.
Although Li Du and Hans were wearing seatbelts, they still staggered from the impact.
Hans looked forward and was instantly furious. He shouted, "Hit it, hit that b * stard Hummer in front!"
They had seen this car before. It was the same car that Frank had driven at the Warner Brothers warehouse auction.
Big Quinn had already avoided it, so they naturally could not return to the original lane and hit it. Otherwise, they would be responsible.
Frank lived up to his nickname of "Crazy Treasure Hunter." Not only did he easily go crazy at storage auctions, but he also went crazy while driving.
Later on, he had his eyes on the Iron Knight and seized the opportunity to suddenly change lanes to cut the car.
Big Quinn was a law-abiding person with a good temper, which was contrary to his ferocious appearance. Even so, he was furious. He said angrily, "Is there something wrong with this b * stard?"
Li Du gritted his teeth and said, "He already said he's mentally ill."
Hans roared, "Turn on the dashcam and hit him! Hit him! Hit this son of a b * tch! "
But it was difficult. Not only did Big Quinn not want to do it, but even if he wanted to, he could not do it.
Frank's driving skills were very good. Compared to the truck, the SUVs were more mobile. They could not do anything to him!
