Sorry for the late update. Last night, his hand was cut while chopping vegetables. It was not treated in time. In the morning, it was treated again and again. Without anesthetics, he had to get three stitches! He met a black-hearted doctor who secretly collected money. That meant that after the registration, he would have to deal with the wound and then give him the money after the stitches. Even worse, it was a Class Three Grade A hospital.
Two days later, in the morning, the Locomotive Storage Company was bustling.
Although Williams was a small town, it was a tourist attraction. Every year, many people came here for vacation and travel. Therefore, it was easy to find good things in storage units. Every time there was a storage auction, it attracted many treasure hunters.
This time, it attracted a lot of people. The bet between Li Du and Andrew had been spread by someone. Now, it was the talk of the storage auction industry in Flagstaff.
Knowing that they were going to have a showdown at the Locomotive Storage Company, many people came to watch. Even people from Phoenix came.
Of course, these people were not just there to watch. They wanted to get in on the action. If they could get a storage unit that was worth more than the two of them, that would be the best.
Today's storage auction was very popular. If they could get the most valuable storage unit, they would definitely earn a lot of fame.
Many newcomers also came. For them, this could broaden their horizons and also give them a chance to become famous.
When Li Du and Hans arrived at the storage company, they found that there were already more than 50 people there. There was still an hour and a half before the auction started!
With so many people, the voices became chaotic. The treasure hunters greeted each other, and their voices were all over the place.
"Hi, Ali, long time no see. You're here today too?"
"Of course, there's a good show to watch today. The big boss of the Hundred Thousand Club is going to teach a rookie a lesson."
"A rookie needs to be taught a lesson. He actually dared to challenge Andrew's authority. How reckless!"
"I heard that it was the rookie who took the initiative to bet with Andrew."
"That's not reckless, it's just that he's tired of living."
Andrew arrived just before the auction started at 9: 30. His modified Mustang roared to the parking lot, and he got out of the car with his head held high.
Seeing this scene, Li Du laughed and said, "No wonder this guy is called Sky Eyes. His eyes are really constantly turning to the sky."
A member of the Hundred Thousand Club was like a celebrity in a small place like this. As soon as he appeared, a group of people immediately surrounded him and greeted him.
Andrew responded indifferently. When he saw Li Du and Hans, he smiled coldly and made a throat-slitting gesture.
Instantly, the crowd exploded because of this provocative action.
"Cool, Brother Andrew is so cool!"
"That's the rookie who provoked Andrew? You look like an idiot! "
"It's not a provocation, it's a death wish. This guy must have gone crazy from wanting to be famous. Does he think he's the son of the God of Fortune? "
"If the God of Luck is also a rookie, then he still can't beat Andrew. He's simply asking to be humiliated."
A smiling auctioneer walked out. He was a middle-aged black man. He spoke quickly, "Everyone, please prepare to enter. Today, we will be auctioning eight storage units. Yes, eight storage units. Everyone, please line up."
"Everyone knows the rules. You're not allowed to enter the warehouse, touch anything, or throw anything inside. However, there are too many people today. Let's change it into small groups. Each group of five can stay at the entrance for one minute. Any questions? "
There was no question. Hans told Li Du that if there were more than a hundred people, they would be divided into groups. Otherwise, if each person stayed for one minute, it would take a few hours to look at a storage unit. That was too much of a waste of time.
Hearing the auctioneer's words, many people sighed. No one liked to look at the storage units in small groups. It was too secretive. If you stared at anything for too long, it would be noticed by the people around you.
The nine storage units that had been reserved became eight. Li Du's heart skipped a beat. However, when he saw that it was the last storage unit that had been canceled, he heaved a sigh of relief.
After looking at the storage units, he said in a low voice, "It's not going to be easy today. There are too many people. The price will be very high."
Hans gave him a look and said, "Watch me."
When he came today, he had prepared two suitcases. He and Li Du each carried one.
Carrying the suitcases, Hans walked into the crowd and bumped into a big man.
He immediately got angry. "Watch where you're going, buddy, watch where you're going! For God's sake, don't waste the eyes that God gave you! "
The big man's face was unfriendly. "Are you crazy, Big Fox?"
Hans yelled, "I'm crazy? You've bumped into my money box! Do you know what's inside? "
He opened the box, and with a bang, revealed the neatly arranged, brand-new bills. It was a shocking sight.
The crowd gasped at the sight of the money.
Hans had an irritating expression on his face. He pointed at Li Du and said, "My buddy has another box!"
"You're planning to use money to buy all the storage units?" someone asked.
Hans laughed. "Of course. As long as we don't lose money, we win, right?"
This was like using chips to beat the opponent in gambling. It was a despicable method, but it was still possible to win.
Hearing this, Andrew did not back down. He held a cigarette in his mouth, took out a hundred-dollar bill from his wallet, and lit it. Then he used the flame to light the cigarette.
"Cool!" The crowd suddenly burst into cheers.
The auction had not started yet, but the two of them were already fighting. The crowd was happy to see this.
The auction for the first storage unit began. The auctioneer raised his hand and said, "The starting price for storage unit 15 is 200 dollars, 200 dollars, 200 dollars …"
Hans nodded immediately. Seeing this, the auctioneer pointed at him and said, "Two hundred dollars. Yes, someone has responded. Now it's 300 dollars, 300 dollars, 300 dollars …"
Someone else accepted the bid. The auctioneer continued to raise the price, and Hans continued to bid. The price quickly rose to 1,000 dollars, then 1,500 dollars, 2,000 dollars.
Andrew watched from the side and sneered, "I really don't understand how idiots like you can make money!"
2,000 dollars was the bid made by a fat man. He was here to join in the fun, and seeing that Hans kept bidding, he decided to join in the fun.
However, when he accepted the bid of 2,000 dollars, Hans suddenly shut up.
This time, the fat man was dumbfounded. He shouted, "Hey, why aren't you bidding anymore?"
Hans sneered, "I'm not blind. This storage unit is worth 2,000 dollars? Not even 500 dollars! "
The crowd roared with laughter again. "Senster, you've been tricked by Big Fox!"
At storage unit 16, Hans started bidding again. This time, when the price rose to 1,500 dollars, Hans stopped bidding. The others also stopped bidding.
The middle-aged man who had made the bid said disdainfully, "D * mn, it's not even 2,000 dollars and you're stopping? Big Fox, you're still that poor bastard deep down. Poor bastards can't make money! "
Hans ignored him and hugged the box in his arms tightly.
The third storage unit was opened. After looking through it, they started bidding. "Someone is very confident in this storage unit, so the starting bid is 1,000 dollars, 1,000 dollars, 1,000 dollars. Anyone dare to accept this price?"
Hans raised his hand. "Two thousand dollars!"
Li Du nodded. There were many musical instruments in this storage unit, and they were well maintained. They could sell for at least 5,000 dollars.
Andrew wiped his nose without batting an eyelid. "Five thousand dollars!"
