Li Du gave Hans a look. He thought it was a secret look, but in fact, everyone could see it.
Hans said to Bedes, "Buddy, I remember you were interested in the two old train tracks I got? If you're willing to give me this clock, I can give you the train tracks. "
"That's a good idea," Bedes said.
"Three thousand dollars, I'll give you three thousand dollars. Ironman, you know, one thousand dollars can buy an old train track," the white man said.
Bedes shook his head at Li Du and Hans. "Obviously, someone else is more willing than you two."
With that, he pushed the antique clock in front of the white man.
The white man transferred the money to Bedes, and then held the antique clock in his arms.
At this time, the treasure hunters who had been quietly watching them bid quickly surrounded them.
"Dubarru, let me help you take a look at this clock. This guy looks like something from the 19th century."
"Something that China Li wants, what's its value?"
"Want to look for treasure in Phoenix? What a daring guy. "
Hans looked at Bedes with dissatisfaction. "Is this how you treat us?"
"The highest bidder wins. Why, you're not happy?" Dubarru said proudly with his head held high.
A young man next to him mocked, "Sore loser, you really are a country bumpkin."
Hans glared at the two of them, and then looked at Bedes. "You're just going to sell the gift we gave you?"
Bedes smiled. "This year, when you come to Phoenix, you don't even have to spend money to stay here. I said 'this year,' which means the whole year."
As the two of them spoke, the treasure hunters who were watching felt that something was wrong.
Li Du looked at the handsome young man who was mixing the drinks, and smiled. "See? Big Fox isn't trying to win favors. What he gave you is indeed a fake, but it's not a worthless piece of trash. "
The handsome young man looked at the group of treasure hunters, and said in an exasperated tone, "You have no brains, and yet you want to get rich! Sly China Li, haven't you heard of this nickname?! "
A treasure hunter asked in surprise, "What, what do you mean?"
Dubarru's expression turned ugly. He pushed the antique clock away and said, "This is a fake?"
A middle-aged man next to him whispered, "If it's a fake antique clock, it won't be worth much. We can buy it for a few hundred yuan."
Bedes shook his head. "I don't know, Dubarru. I swear to God, I don't know anything about this clock. It was a gift from Big Fox."
Someone quickly removed the outer shell of the antique clock and took a look. Then, he said awkwardly, "Sh * t, it's really a fake. Dubarru, you've been tricked."
Dubarru angrily looked at the two of them. Hans innocently spread his hands and said, "We never said that this is the real deal."
Li Du added, "You're really from a big city. You're really generous. In my hometown, country bumpkins wouldn't be willing to spend 3,000 dollars on a fake antique clock. I've really learned something new today."
The crowd fell into an awkward silence. Dubarru pointed at the two and wanted to say something, but he could not blame them.
A white-haired old treasure hunter said, "That's it, Dubarru. That Chinaman is right. In this line of work, we should seize the opportunity to learn something. Treat it as a lesson bought with money."
Dubarru did not want to be taken advantage of. He looked at Bedes angrily and said, "Ironman, is this how you treat your friend?"
Bedes smiled warmly. The handsome young man beside him said, "If you treated my brother as a friend, would you think of picking up a treasure from his hands?"
These words made sense. Dubarru cursed angrily and walked away with the antique clock.
Li Du and Hans also walked out. Hans laughed and said, "Buddy, you're really cunning. But Dubarru, that idiot, is too brainless."
"On the one hand, he's brainless. On the other hand, it proves that what Bedes said is right. We're being targeted by everyone. It's going to be hard to get the storage that we're interested in," Li Du said helplessly.
He had not done that to trick Dubarru. He had only wanted to test how much the treasure hunters would follow them.
In the end, Dubarru was really brainless. Seeing that Li Du was interested in the antique clock, he did not hesitate to bid for it. The others did not stop him, which meant that everyone was blindly following his taste.
In the storage auction industry, this was not a good thing. This meant that if they wanted to get a storage unit in the future, they would have to fight a price war with others.
On Tuesday morning, the two of them woke up early and prepared to go to the Big Red Sparrow storage unit.
As soon as their car left, three or four pickup trucks immediately followed behind.
"F * ck!" Hans slammed the steering wheel angrily. "A bunch of followers …"
A muffled sound interrupted his words. The steering wheel had been slammed askew by him.
Li Du was so shocked that he quickly shouted, "Step on the gas, step on the gas, no, step on the brake!"
Hans was an experienced driver. He reacted quickly and immediately stepped on the brake. The car then stopped crookedly in the middle of the road. The two of them looked at the crooked steering wheel, dumbfounded.
"What the f * ck is going on?"
Hans said, feeling wronged. "I didn't use much strength. It's obvious that this car is too old. We should get a new one. "
Li Du scolded, "We're about to go to war and you're telling me that the trigger is broken? Don't you know how to take care of it? "
Ah Meow: "Meow, meow, meow!"
The cars behind them all honked their horns. They stopped their car in the middle of the road.
A treasure hunter walked over and leaned against the car window. "You two, do you have to be so stingy? We just want to go and take a look. You're not even willing to do that? "
Hans said, "Are we such stingy fellows? Look at the d * mn steering wheel! "
The treasure hunter was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed maniacally. He ran back and shouted, "Go to the Big Red Sparrow. There's a problem with their car's steering wheel. They can't go today!"
The two of them waited for the traffic police to tow the car away and then took a taxi to the Big Red Sparrow Storage Company.
With such a delay, when they arrived, the auction was about to start. However, there were not many valuable storage units, so Li Du was not in a hurry.
Seeing the two of them arrive, the crowd suddenly burst into a lively discussion. Some people greeted them, while others gave them the middle finger.
The first storage unit only had some miscellaneous household items. They were not worth much, and the starting price was also very low: 100 dollars.
Li Du nodded to Hans, indicating for him to test the waters. In the end, when they raised their cards, someone immediately bid.
The items in this storage unit could at most be sold for 300 to 400 dollars. It was considered a worthless storage unit. Because it would take a whole day to tidy up the storage unit, the two of them would have to spend 300 to 400 dollars just on labor alone.
However, the price soon reached 500 dollars. Hans called for 550 dollars, and someone else called for 600 dollars.
Seeing this, Li Du shook his head and the two of them retreated.
The crowd booed, and someone cheered, "Don't let these two b * stards take away any treasures from Phoenix!"
Li Du sighed. "D * mn, aren't they afraid that we'll make false bids?"
He thought that after messing with Dubarry the day before yesterday, the treasure hunters would be wary of them.
However, it was clear that people were tempted by money. Everyone was willing to take the risk and bid.
They bid for the second storage unit, and there were still many people bidding against them, even though the price had already doubled the value of the storage unit.
Naturally, the two of them would not be spendthrift. They missed the second storage unit, and soon arrived at unit 102, which was the porcelain storage unit.
