There were many wild animals in the United States. During the hunting season, everyone had a wide variety of game.
Not only did Playboy bring bison, but Blacktooth also brought the same thing as a gift. It was a large piece of tenderloin, a top-grade ingredient for steak.
This was more troublesome to handle. Big Quinn rubbed a handful of butter on it.
Someone also brought wild boar meat, which Li Du had eaten before. It was very chewy.
Whether it was wild boar meat or bison beef, they had eaten or seen them before. However, someone brought peacock meat, which was very rare.
Big Quinn marinated the peacock meat. He used red wine, gin, Japanese miso, and olive oil to make a sauce to marinate the meat.
At noon, everyone started to eat.
American parties were not particular. Like a buffet, it was a hands-on buffet. Everyone could eat whatever they wanted. Anyway, it was mainly barbecue.
Li Du wanted to show off his cooking skills, but there were too many people to entertain. Moreover, he was very popular now. Everyone wanted to talk to him, so he had no free time.
Most of the food at treasure hunter parties were burgers. They were easy to make and could fill one's stomach quickly. Big Quinn made a lot of raw burgers and placed them on the table.
Li Du took two and put them in the oven. This oven was designed by Big Quinn. It was like a big theater, with layers of patterns.
After the fire was ignited, the wood and smokeless charcoal burned. Because of the patterns, the flame did not rise directly to the sky. Instead, it followed the patterns and formed a few layers.
"Section 3 oven?" Lu Guan was interested. He squatted next to the oven and looked at it carefully.
Li Du asked, "What's so special about this oven?"
Lu Guan said, "Of course, this is a very high-end oven for barbecue. It's very troublesome to make. Look, the top is the low temperature area, the lower is the high temperature area, and the bottom is the medium temperature area. They have different functions."
Section 3 oven was the most suitable for grilling burgers. The meat inside was grilled in the high temperature area. After heating it quickly, it was turned to the medium temperature area. Finally, it was placed in the low temperature area to keep warm.
However, this process was more complicated. Hans got impatient after doing it once and ate it directly after it was done.
After chewing two mouthfuls, he asked, "Is this wild boar meat? It's too thin. The meat doesn't taste good at all. "
Big Quinn walked over to take a look and said, "No, it's pork, but it's too thin. Here, put a piece of butter in it. Also, don't use the spatula to press down on the burger when you're grilling it. Otherwise, the oil inside will be pressed away. "
Li Du went to fill his burger. He took two slices of bread and a piece of beef. He chose bison because he had never eaten this kind of meat before.
The Playboy said, "It's best not to use too much seasoning when eating wild beef. Just sprinkle some coarse salt and black pepper on it. Buddy, you have to taste the original taste of the beef."
Even if he didn't add any seasoning, he would still have to add vegetables to fill it.
Li Du used lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and lettuce. After picking up a bulging bulge, he tried his best to roast it, but Hans snatched it away.
"Get back here, bastard!" Mr. Li said angrily.
Hans smirked. "Thanks for the gift, Li!"
Looking at the people making vulgar jokes and fooling around freely, York suddenly felt a little envious. He murmured, "It seems like this kind of life is not bad."
Bohr laughed coldly. "Like these stupid, barbaric bumpkins? No, kill me. We're going to live in Beverly Hills eventually. Our neighbors are all Hollywood stars or politicians. As for these idiots? Just let them die! "
Lu Guan, who was playing with the big golden retriever, shrugged his shoulders. He found Li Du and said, "Do you need some information? Those two fellas have a new opinion of you guys … "
Li Du's "Shang Yang's prestige building method" worked. From the beginning to the end of the party, dozens of people came to tell him some so-called insider information.
Not only did the treasure hunters here leak information to him, but there were also people calling from other places.
After the party ended, he received a call. The caller introduced himself in English, saying that his name was Kevin Zhang. His Chinese name was Zhang Kai, and that he worked in Page.
As a place name, Page was most famous because it was located between the Danube and Drava rivers. It was one of the most attractive cities in Hungary.
Page, Hungary, had a pleasant climate and a long history. It had a gorgeous museum and the best Turkish ruins in the country.
There was also a Page in the United States, which was the town of Page that Zhang Kai had mentioned. It had the same name as Page in Europe, but the size and population were very different.
There were many places like this in the United States. Because Americans were originally immigrants from Europe, many places were named after European cities in order to cherish the memory of their homeland or simply to make it easier to remember.
Li Du only knew of Page in Europe. When he received the call, he felt strange and asked, "Hello, are you in Hungary?"
The other party was stunned and said, "No, I'm in the United States, in Arizona."
Li Du looked at Hans and asked in a low voice, "There's a place called Page in Arizona?"
Hans nodded. "Of course, it's in the northeastern part of the state. It used to be the territory of the Hopi."
Li Du understood and continued to answer the call. "Hello, Mr. Zhang, may I know why you're calling?"
Zhang Kai switched to Mandarin and said, "Big brother, I'm now working at Page's Glen Canyon Storage. They're planning to organize an auction, a storage auction."
Li Du listened quietly. Did someone come to send him a message?
Zhang Kai said, "I don't know if you know, but Page is a very popular tourist destination. There are three to four million tourists here every year, so there are a lot of storage units and a lot of stuff in them.
There are 45 storage units being auctioned this time. There are three types of large, medium, and small storage units. Some of them have some good stuff in them. I wanted to ask if you want to participate. "
Li Du did not answer directly. He asked first, "How do you know about me? Did Mr. Ma Zhi-an introduce me? Are you also a member of the Chinese Mutual Aid Association? "
Zhang Kai said happily, "Yes, Brother Ma told all of us in this business that there's a Chinese brother in the storage auction business. If there's a good storage unit, he told us to let you know."
This made Li Du feel touched. Ma Zhi-an's kindness was very generous and had helped his business a lot.
After exchanging contact information with Zhang Kai, Li Du hung up and said to Hans, "There's a storage auction in Page. We'll go there now."
Hans looked it up on the internet and nodded. "Yes, there's an auction. There are 45 storage units being auctioned."
Li Du said, "You have to pay more attention to this kind of news. 45 storage units, it's very likely that there's something valuable in them."
Hans said helplessly, "I noticed it, but I didn't think you'd be interested. Page is in the northeastern part of the state. It's not near us."
Li Du said, "As long as there's money to be made, we'll go no matter how far it is."
Hans immediately said, "There's also a storage company in Las Vegas that's holding an auction at the same time. There are 20 storage units. There's a higher chance that there's something good there."
Li Du said, "I'm not going."
Hans was speechless.
