The auction was still going on. The Tucson gang was very rich. They had monopolized the surrounding storage units and made a lot of money in the past few years.
Especially Princeps, who had even become a member of the Million Dollar Club. This meant that his net worth was at least in the millions.
The price of 1,000 dollars could not stop them. Someone bid 1,100 dollars. Li Du shouted leisurely, "1,200 dollars!"
The auctioneer raised his head and looked at him. He wanted to avoid his bid, but under the circumstances, he could not pretend that he did not hear Li Du's voice.
After some hesitation, he pointed at Li Du and said, "Okay, 1,100 dollars, 1,100 dollars, this guy bids 1,100 dollars. Any higher bids? How about 1,200 dollars?"
Princeps personally came out to bid and said fiercely, "No need, 1,200 dollars, 1,500 dollars!"
Li Du raised his hand. "1,600 dollars!"
Princeps did not give up. "Two thousand dollars!"
His two bids were very high. Li Du thought about it and shook his head.
At this time, Dickens shouted, "2,100 dollars."
Princeps's target was Li Du. He did not care about the others. He glanced at Dickens and thought about the situation in the storage unit. Seeing that Li Du and Hans did not bid, he also gave up.
Seeing this, Li Du laughed. This guy's eyes are just so-so!
Dickens won the storage unit. He winked at the surrounding treasure hunters and said with a smile, "Thanks for your help, guys. It's not easy to take a storage unit from Tucson."
Olly came up and patted him on the shoulder. "You're going to be famous, kid. You've done what many treasure hunters can't do."
The auction for this storage unit was over. Everyone moved on to the next storage unit.
Someone took the opportunity to bump Olly and said with a gloomy face, "The last laugh is the most beautiful. Don't be in such a hurry to laugh. Otherwise, if you cry in the future, won't it be ugly?"
Olly heard the threat in his words, but he was not afraid. He said, "So what if it's ugly? If there's joy, then there's joy. If you can laugh now, then why not? "
The surrounding people from the Tucson gang wanted to attack, but Princeps gave them a stern look and they could only leave.
Big Beard Carl came up and gave Olly a punch. He laughed and said, "Hey, Olly, you old dog, when did you become so tough? I remember back in Los Angeles, you peed your pants because of Frank. "
Olly glared at him. "I admit that I was scared by him, but I didn't pee my pants! Besides, what did I have to fear now? I'm Boss Li's follower! "
Li Du said, "Since you're following me, I'll make sure you make money. Let's go. This time, we must kill in Tucson!"
That being said, it was still difficult to make money in Tucson. The two most valuable storage units had already been taken by the Tucson Brotherhood.
Some of the storage units that were put up for auction were either bought by the Tucson Brotherhood or the Flagstaff treasure hunters led by Li Du.
Only the two of them were bidding for the storage unit. Li Du began to use tactics. During the auction, he would let the Tucson Brotherhood bid first, and then he would increase the bid. No matter what the value of the storage unit was, he would increase the bid.
Because he realized that the Tucson Brotherhood's strategy was to cast a wide net. No matter what was in the warehouse, they would try their best to cooperate with the auctioneer to buy the warehouse.
Even if Li Du bid, they would still increase the price. Therefore, he would try to increase the bid by the auctioneer so that even if the Tucson Brotherhood won the warehouse, they would still get more money.
If the warehouse was valuable, he would estimate it. After estimating the profit margin, he would set a minimum price within the profit margin, and then keep increasing the bid.
The Tucson Brotherhood did not know much about the value of the storage units, so they could only rely on casting a wide net to compete with him.
There was a prerequisite for casting a wide net to bid for storage units, and that was that the price must not be high. If the price of the storage was high, then the Tucson Brotherhood's funds were limited, and it would be difficult to bid for all of them.
In this way, if the price of the storage unit was too high, they would not bid again and let the warehouse fall into Li Du's hands.
In this way, more than ten storage units were auctioned off, and the auction for storage unit 62 began.
After the storage unit was opened, Li Du saw some helmets, military uniforms, and firearms. He immediately knew that this was the military equipment storage unit that he could not pick up.
The treasure hunters in front were in the same situation as Li Du. They were surprised at first, and then depressed.
However, Li Du was depressed that he could not pick up a bargain, while the treasure hunters were depressed. "Is there a mistake? D * mn, real life CS equipment? I thought we came across a military storage unit! "
Hans queued up to take a look and also said gloomily, "It's not worth much. It's all props. D * mn, it's like toys."
Hearing their words, Li Du was stunned and said, "These are all props? I thought they were the real thing. "
Hans shone a flashlight in and said, "They're all props. Look, the helmet is made of hard plastic, and there are sensor points on it. And the military uniform, the lines on it are also sensor points. This should be a laser sensing prop."
Li Du looked in the direction of the light. It was indeed so, but he remembered that what he saw was real.
Hans continued, "Look, there's a belt on the military uniform, and there's a loading bag on it. However, I bet it's not a magazine, but a battery to power the sensor points."
Li Du nodded and released the little bug to take a look. It was indeed a battery that was made into a magazine.
However, this was different from what he remembered, so he frowned and thought for a while. He let the little bug fly into the wooden box in the storage unit. The wooden box also contained some military equipment.
The little bug flew in, and what appeared were helmets, night vision goggles, bulletproof vests, and other equipment. When it flew into the equipment, what it saw was completely different from what it saw outside!
There were no night vision goggles in the equipment outside, but there were in the box, and the wires in the night vision goggles were complicated.
There were guns in the box, too. The little bug flew in to take a look, and it was filled with the structure of a real gun that Li Du was familiar with. This was a real gun, not a prop!
There was also a bulletproof vest. Although he did not know what material it was made of, looking at the layers of chemical fiber composite, it was definitely not a simple prop.
In addition, there were gas masks, multi-purpose knives, binoculars, and even grenades in the box. They were all real goods!
This made Li Du excited. He had thought that only the first two storage units were valuable, but now it seemed that this storage unit was also valuable, and he had a chance to get something good!
The auction started, and the Tucson gang no longer formed a human wall. Anyway, a human wall could not stop him. Besides, there were other Flagstaff treasure hunters bidding, and they did not have enough people to form a human wall.
The auctioneer shouted, "The price of this storage unit is 1,000 dollars, 1,000 dollars, 1,000 dollars, who is willing to pay 1,000 dollars?"
Li Du winked at Hans. Hans laughed and said, "I'll pay 1,000 dollars!"
"1,100 dollars!" Someone from the Tucson gang followed up.
Hans raised the price. "2,000 dollars!"
The Tucson gang shouted, "2,100 dollars!"
Hans said, "3,000 dollars!"
"3,100 dollars!"
"4,000 dollars!"
At this price, the Tucson gang stopped bidding. Princeps shook his head and backed out of the bidding. He said, "4,000 dollars for a bunch of props? Ha, unless I'm crazy. "
