The pizza was delicious, the coffee was mellow, and the scenery was breathtaking.
After enjoying the breakfast, Li Du drove to their destination, King Kong Storage Company, with Godzilla and Big Quinn.
This storage company was very large, with thousands of storage units. Most of them were small and mini units. They were rented to tourists, and their business was booming.
Unlike storage companies that catered to local residents, King Kong Storage Company usually signed short-term contracts with their customers. Most of the time, the lease period was less than a month.
After all, these customers were mainly tourists, and tourists could not stay in Las Vegas for long.
As long as the default period reached three days, these storage units would be considered ownerless, and the storage company could auction them off. Therefore, King Kong held many auctions every year.
However, it was rare to see such a large-scale auction. King Kong Storage Company was aware of the profits, so they held a cash auction to make a fortune.
The storage company was located at the edge of the city, surrounded by desert. The environment was very dry, and there were thousands of small houses built within a wall. The houses were next to each other, like a beehive.
With the enhancement of the little bug's ability, Li Du rarely entered the storage company to check on the situation. He would let the little bug fly in when he was outside.
However, he could not do that this time. He had to save every ounce of energy. It was more reliable to enter the storage company.
After giving him two Franklin bills, a security guard happily escorted him into the storage company.
The security guard was quite particular. After taking Li Du's money, he gave him a bottle of Coca-Cola. "Have fun, brother!"
Li Du smiled. "Thank you, I'm just looking around. You know, China doesn't have a storage culture like yours. I'm very curious."
"Feel free, brother, but don't let our boss see you. That b * stard doesn't like colored people," the security guard warned.
Li Du did not take the words to heart. He did not intend to visit the boss of the storage company.
Among the 145 storage units to be auctioned, the first one was storage unit number five. It was a mini storage unit with an area of only 20 square feet.
The little bug went in and circled around. There was nothing that attracted it. All it could see were children's toys, barbecue grills, mountain bikes, and the like. There was no value. He immediately sent the little bug to fly to the next storage unit.
All the observations were carried out in an orderly and tense manner. Li Du drank his Coke leisurely and strolled between the storage units, recording the information of the storage units on his phone.
He no longer used the notebook to record. Instead, he used the notebook app that came with his phone. The phone itself had a lock screen password, and the notebook could also be opened with a password. This way, it was more secure.
145 storage units were a lot, but with Li Du's current level of control over the little bug, searching the storage units was not a difficult task.
In addition, he would only look at the first 100 storage units. He would look at the remaining 45 storage units when the auction started the next day. Otherwise, he would not have enough energy.
Out of the 100 warehouses, 80% were mini warehouses, with a total area of only 20 square meters. Even if the little bug could not see everything in one glance, it could still see everything in two glances. Hence, it saved a lot of time.
After two hours, Li Du had finished looking through the storage units. He retrieved the little bug and prepared to leave the storage company.
At this time, he walked to the central area of the storage company. In the middle of it was a three-story building with a sign hanging on the door. It read "King Kong Storage Company Office Building".
What was interesting was that the exterior of the office building was built in the style of storage units. It looked like there were three storage units stacked together.
Li Du wanted to take a photo with his phone. This was the first time he had seen such an interesting storage company office.
In the end, just as he walked to the door to take a photo, a car drove over. The car door opened and someone walked out.
It was a middle-aged blond white man with a big belly. He was carrying a large picture frame in his hands. When he saw Li Du holding up his phone, he frowned and asked, "Hey, what are you doing?"
Li Du smiled and said, "I think this building is very interesting. I want to take a photo."
The blond white man looked at him suspiciously and said, "What are you doing? What are you doing here? "
Li Du could tell that he was hostile towards him. He smiled in a friendly manner and said, "I'm a treasure hunter, a storage auction treasure hunter. I'm here to look at the environment. I'm preparing to participate in the storage auction that will be held soon."
His tone was friendly, and there was nothing wrong with what he said.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the blond white man's face changed.
His expression became very ugly. He frowned and glared at Li Du. He shouted, "Treasure hunter? The auction hasn't started yet. What are you doing here? How did you get in? F * ck! Those d * mned niggers must be neglecting their duties again! "
Li Du had been aware of his suggestion from the beginning. After listening to his words, he suddenly remembered what the black security guard had reminded him earlier. The owner of this storage company did not like people of color!
Thinking of this, he knew that his answer was too rash.
There was no doubt that this guy was the owner of the storage company!
In the storage auction industry, the relationship between storage companies and treasure hunters was interdependent and competitive. It was not a good relationship. There had been conflicts between the owners of storage companies and treasure hunters everywhere.
Generally speaking, such conflicts were caused by the storage company. The wealth and social status of the treasure hunters were generally not as high as that of the storage company owners.
Under such circumstances, the owners of storage companies would not be nice to the treasure hunters. Unless they were members of a high-ranking club, the owners would not even pay attention to the treasure hunters.
Li Du was a treasure hunter, and a person of color. If he met a storage company owner who discriminated against people of color, how could he get along?
He should say that he was a tourist from Las Vegas and wanted to rent a storage unit to store his things. King Kong Storage Company was a large company. There were many customers and staff coming and going every day. There were many unfamiliar faces, so this identity would be more reliable.
It was too late now. The owner knew who he was and was very angry.
He threw down the picture frame in his hand and pushed Li Du hard. He said angrily, "I say, what are you doing here? What are you doing in my company? D * mmit, you yellow-skinned people have a lot of thieves. Who knows what you're doing here? "
His words were very harsh, and Li Du's face darkened.
However, the owner was right about one thing. This was his territory. Before the storage auction started, it was not a problem if he was not welcome.
Therefore, he wanted to avoid the push from the blond man and leave. He summoned the bug and prepared to use its ability to slow down time.
However, when the bug flew out, it did not wait for his command. Instead, it flew towards the two picture frames on the ground.
