The auction reached its climax at unit 207. This unit contained a case for the massage chair, and the case was well preserved. It was easy to imagine that the owner had dismantled the chair and put it back into the case.
The previous four units had all sold for a few hundred dollars, with the lowest being a hundred dollars. This made Li Du feel like this business was child's play.
After discovering the massage chair case, a crazy bidding war began. He saw the cruel side of storage auctions:
"… 200 dollars, 200 dollars, starting at 200 dollars. Is there anyone willing to pay 300 dollars for this storage unit? There are so many treasures in there that people would drool over!"
"… 1,500 yuan, 1,500 yuan, 1,500 yuan, 1,500 yuan. Is there anyone willing to bid 1,600 yuan, 1,600 yuan, 1,600 yuan? Very well, this gentleman has bid 1,600 yuan. Next, 1,700 yuan. The price is 1,700 yuan …"
"2,500 yuan, 2,500 yuan, 2,500 yuan. Is there anyone willing to bid 2,600 yuan? Very good, 2,600 yuan has been reached. Next, let's be more daring. I want to bid 2,800 yuan, 2,800 yuan, 2,800 yuan …"
"Four thousand dollars!" A black man who looked rather stout roared.
Hearing this price, Li Du was slightly surprised. "That's a high price?"
Hans looked enviously at the few people who were still bidding, and said casually, "Of course, didn't I tell you? This Cashmere massage chair is known as a multi-purpose electric space capsule. A new one costs 20,000 dollars! "
In the end, unit 207 was won by the rich black man with a price of 6,500 dollars. Li Du looked at him with pity as he proudly locked up the unit.
There was no massage chair in the case. There were some financial books and magazines inside. The owner probably thought that the case was too big and used it to cover the books.
There was only trash in unit 208. This unit was left unsold, and in the end, it was sold for fifty dollars.
Li Du raised his eyebrows at Hans and said, "Hey, Big Fox, how about we get this unit?"
Hans was stunned. "What's inside?"
Li Du pointed and said, "Look, there's a cover for the TV. I think there's a TV underneath. Just the TV alone is worth more than 50 dollars, right?"
Hans said, "What else?"
"We'll have to clean it up later."
"So you're saying that you're only looking at a possible break-even item? Then don't bid for it! We can take the risk, but the goal of the risk is to make a huge profit. Why would we take the risk to break even? "Hans shrugged.
There were some good items in the last storage unit. Hans shook his head regretfully after waving his wolf eye flashlight at the entrance.
Li Du asked, "What's wrong?"
"If I still had my car, I would bid for this warehouse. There's a box in there. See? I think it's a gun box. Maybe there's a good old gun inside. We can make some money from it. "
If he didn't have a car, he would lose the initiative.
They only had 24 hours of ownership over the warehouse. Before the ownership expired, they had to move everything, including the trash inside.
In the end, what was left for the storage company would be a clean unit. If they only took the valuable items and left behind the trash, then they would not be able to participate in any future auctions.
Therefore, if there is no car, it will be difficult to move garbage.
In the end, the storage unit was sold for 1,500 dollars. Obviously, Hans was not the only one who saw the gun box.
At the end of the auction, Hans went to pay. The storage company required all transactions to be made in cash and did not accept online transfers.
After paying, they received a stamp on the receipt from the auctioneer. They could start working.
Next to them, a rich black man opened the warehouse. He went straight to the huge box and reached out to try it. His face lit up with joy. "It's heavy enough, there's something inside!"
When the box was opened, a large pile of books and magazines fell out.
Instantly, the black man was dumbfounded.
Hans and the others who were watching from the outside smiled. Obviously, they still had a chance since the massage chair was not here.
Li Du helped to pack up. Hans waved his hand and said, "No, bro. For God's sake, you can help me."
Li Du was touched. "Thank you, Big Fox, but you don't have to take care of me like this."
"Damn, who's taking care of you? Don't use that d * mned gay tone to talk to me! I'm worried that you don't know anything and will miss out on something valuable! "
Hearing this, Li Du decisively raised his middle finger. Screw you.
"This chair is not bad. Put it on the left side of the door. It can sell for 50 dollars. Hmm, the bookshelf is not bad. Fifty dollars is not a problem. "
"It's a pity, d * mned, this safe is broken. I can only throw it away as trash. Oh my God, my luck is really bad. This oven is broken too. "
As he shook his head, Hans pulled open the tarp in front of him. Then, a genuine leather massage chair with a golden shell appeared in front of him!
Because the warehouse was sealed, there was no dust. With the tarp covering it, the golden shell of the massage chair was as good as new. It was as bright as a mirror and had been preserved very well.
Hans was stunned for a moment, and then shouted in surprise, "F * ck! F * ck! F * ck! Ah ah ah, the massage chair, the massage chair! I got the massage chair! "
Hearing his shout, the bidders next to him quickly looked over. When they saw the brand new massage chair, they all showed expressions of jealousy.
Especially the rich black man, he looked like he could not wait to snatch the massage chair.
With the chair in hand, the other small items were not important anymore.
Hans called for a van. They moved the items in, cleaned up the warehouse, and left before dark.
When they got home and moved the chair, Hans connected the plug to the power source. He rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "Let me see how good a 20,000 dollar massage chair is!"
When the switch was turned on, the LCD screens on both sides of the armrest lit up. Hans sat on it and pressed the start button. He was waiting for the comfortable massage, but the chair did not move at all.
Seeing this, Li Du panicked. "Sh * t, it can't be broken, right?"
Hans said confidently, "Impossible. God told us to get this chair to change my business life, so he wouldn't give us a broken chair. Wait, I'll go online and look up the instructions. "
After fiddling with it for a while, he looked at Li Du dejectedly. "According to the manual, this thing's motor is broken! D * mned, this is why I don't believe in God. He's not reliable at all! "
"Then what do we do? Repair it? "
"It's the motor that's broken, the main control engine. If we want to repair it, we'll need at least 3,000 dollars. Do you have 3,000 dollars?"
"Didn't you mortgage your car? Don't tell me you don't even have 3,000 dollars as a mortgage! "
"Yes, I mortgaged my car for 2,500 dollars, and now I only have 1,000 dollars left. Do you have 2,000 dollars?" Hans looked at Li Du expectantly.
Li Du took out his wallet and showed it to him. "I don't even have five f * cking coins!"
The two of them looked at each other, and understood the meaning of one word from each other's faces: pauper!
