Storage unit 114 was a mess. There were some shoe boxes piled up in front of the door, and when they were opened, they were all over the place.
There were small toys, palm-sized Bibles, windproof lighters, handmade boxes, and so on. Li Du sorted them out and placed them in front of the door.
Some of the people waiting at the door saw the small items and shook their heads.
"Don't be like that, buddy. According to the golden rule of storage auctions, look for the most valuable items first."
"Do we have to sort this trash? Put it in a bag, and the trash can is where it belongs. "
"Even if it's a trash can, eating these things would be disgusting, right? Haha. "
Li Du opened a big box, and there was a pile of cards in it. They were the size of playing cards, made of hard plastic, and each card was well protected with a plastic film.
There were a lot of cards, about three to four hundred. He carefully took them out, put them together, and put them in the front passenger seat of the car.
Seeing this, the treasure hunters waiting at the side laughed. "What kind of treasure is this?"
Someone went up to take a look, picked up a card, and shook his head. "This thing is not valuable. If I'm not blind, I'm looking at a room card."
Hans nodded at Li Du. "Yes, room cards are not valuable."
Li Du asked, "I remember there is a market for collecting room cards in America, right?"
Hans shrugged. "There is a market, but these things are not valuable. They are not rare, unless you find a White House room card."
Li Du shook his head. "There is no White House room card."
"Then this is a pile of trash," Dalton, who was watching the fun, said.
Li Du smiled and stopped talking, focusing on his work.
Seeing this, the treasure hunters who were watching felt that he was too boring, and left one after another to go over to Andrew's side.
After Andrew opened the storage unit, he raised his head and said, "Guys, move the things out. Be careful, do you see that box? Be careful with that, I'll take it out myself. "
At his level, he did not need to do the heavy work himself. He hired burly workers to clean up the storage unit, and he only needed to judge the value of the items.
A blue box stacked in a white foam box was moved over. He opened the box and took out a guitar of the same color.
The guitar was exquisitely designed and had smooth curves. The blue lacquer was very exquisite, and when the rays of the setting sun shone on it, it shone with a sparkling luster.
The most amazing thing was that as Andrew slowly turned the guitar, the blue light jumped like pure waves.
Seeing this, the eyes of the treasure hunters lit up. All kinds of gazes were focused on the guitar. The group of people did not hide their envy, jealousy, and hatred.
Reginald's eyes were burning. He shouted, "Sh * t, sh * t, sh * t! Don't tell me this is a Fender Wave Electric Guitar! "
Hearing this name, everyone cried out in surprise.
"Oh my god, are you serious? Is this Fanta Waves? "
"Is this for real? There's such a treasure hidden in this place?"
"The members of the Hundred Thousand Club are definitely the real deal. I told you that rookie would be beaten up badly!"
The two warehouses were not far from each other, so Hans quickly got the news and ran over.
Li Du remained calm and continued to tidy up the storage unit. There was no one there, so he walked directly to the box in the middle and took out a belt.
The belt was made of high-quality cowhide. It looked old and simple, but after he wiped it with a cotton cloth, it became clean and looked brand new.
After a while, Hans came back cursing. "That son of a b * tch's luck is pretty good. He actually managed to get his hands on a Fanta Wave! D * mn, no wonder he dared to bid 5,000 dollars, no wonder he dared to bid 5,000 dollars! "
Li Du asked, "What's a Fender Wave?"
"An electric guitar. You know the Fender guitar, right? If jazz, blues, country, and rock music are the symbols of America, then the Fender electric guitar is the shiny paint on the symbol, "Hans explained.
"And the Wave is the best of the Fender guitars, made in the Cornona factory in California. From the guitar board, strings, and accessories to the audio equipment, including the mixing console, they are all top-notch. It's worth a lot."
Li Du immediately knew what he was talking about. He had seen the blue electric guitar, but he could not tell what it was, nor could he find it on the internet.
Hans told him the value of the guitar. "A new Fender Wave costs 50,000 dollars. His one is in good condition. It's definitely worth 30,000 dollars."
Li Du said, "30,000 dollars? That's a lot of money. "
Hans said dejectedly, "D * mn, we're in trouble! Man, I can't help but blame you. How could you have missed? Didn't your family skill see the value of that storage unit? "
Li Du smiled bitterly. "My family skill is not 100% effective. I told you on the first day. But it's okay, we might not lose."
They tidied up the storage unit, but it was full of junk and even useless trash. Hans's mood became more and more gloomy. He could not see any hope of winning.
A group of treasure hunters gathered at the entrance to watch the show. Finally, before the sun set, the two storage units were tidied up. Andrew walked over with his head held high.
"Hey, you two rookies, come here. Let me see what you've got," he said arrogantly.
The crowd booed. The fat guy who had been tricked by Hans in the auction for storage unit 15 mocked, "They got a pile of dog shit, or maybe some women's diapers. Don't look, Andrew, it'll hurt your eyes."
Andrew snorted, "I didn't intend to look. There's no need to show all my treasures. You two idiots, come and look at my guitar. This guitar can sell for 30,000 dollars. What do you have to compete with it?"
Dalton shook his head. "They can't compete. Their most valuable thing is that lawn mower that could sell for 500 dollars."
"Provoking the members of the Hundred Thousand Club, they've finally suffered."
"If I were them, I'd definitely pull down the door and hide in there until midnight."
"Then wouldn't they become rats? China rats? Haha. "
Hans was furious. He pointed at the last person who had spoken and shouted, "Hey, kid, don't talk sh * t. Don't insult my brother, or I'll break all your teeth so you can't chew your wife's toenails!"
Andrew said impatiently, "Don't change the subject, kid. Let me ask you, what do you have to compete with my electric guitar?"
Hans was speechless. Li Du took out a belt from a cardboard box. "How about this?"
This belt was the one he had found earlier. There was an eagle carved on the silver buckle. The eagle's head was facing right, its wings were outstretched, and there was a swastika in its claws.
He showed the belt to Hans. When he saw the buckle, Hans's eyes lit up. "Hey, this is good stuff. Is it a f * cking belt?"
