Li Du bid again, and the last treasure hunter who bid 1,042 dollars breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he did not have to take over this lousy warehouse.
In fact, most of the people who were interested in this warehouse lost interest after seeing it. Even if a few were still interested, they did not want to bid more than 1,000 dollars for it.
Conrad's bid of 1,000 dollars had dispelled other treasure hunters' thoughts of bidding. After a small increase, only Li Du and he were still here.
Li Du bid 1,100 dollars, and Conrad immediately raised the price again. "Two thousand dollars."
His bid made the treasure hunters very curious. Some people squeezed to the door to look in and wondered, "What's in there that's worth so much money?"
Li Du knew that the things in this warehouse were worthless. Conrad did not see anything. He just saw his bid and guessed that he was interested in the warehouse, so he deliberately came to disgust him.
This was a bit of a problem. After suddenly seeing the information about the tragedy of Luo Qun's parents, he was so shocked that he subconsciously ignored the surrounding environment and let Conrad see his intentions.
Given the feud between him and Conrad, the other side would certainly not let him get this warehouse easily.
Fortunately, he certainly had more money than Conrad, and the things in this warehouse were important, so he had to get them.
After Conrad bid, White Glove was happy, pointed to him and said, "Two thousand dollars, two thousand dollars, two thousand dollars, this spirited young man has bid two thousand dollars. Is there anyone willing to bid higher?"
Li Du snapped his fingers and said, "Ten thousand dollars."
For him, 10,000 dollars was nothing, and there was no pressure to bid.
The reason why he made such a bid was to test Conrad's determination and financial level. He believed that Conrad would not let him get the warehouse at such a price.
When the price of 10,000 dollars came out, there was an uproar.
The previous warehouses had never had such a high price. The highest one was only 3,600 dollars, which was reached after a series of bidding. This time, with only two or three bids, the warehouse had risen from a base price of 500 dollars to 10,000 dollars, which shocked the treasure hunters.
The Arizona treasure hunters knew how good Li Du was. Seeing him staring at the storage unit, everyone was puzzled. What treasures could there be in the storage unit?
More people crowded to the door, but no matter how they looked, they could not see any trace of the warehouse's value of more than 10,000 dollars.
This way, the treasure hunters would not dare to participate in the bidding. If Li Du made a mistake and quoted such a price, or if this was a trap set by him, they would be in deep trouble.
Conrad was full of confidence. He, too, could not see the value of this unit, but he could tell that Li Du was very interested in it. That was why he was bidding.
The price of the warehouse was raised to 10,000 dollars. White Gloves was overjoyed. He pointed at Li Du and quickly shouted, "Ten thousand dollars, ten thousand dollars, ten thousand dollars. It seems that someone has discovered its value. So, does anyone else have brighter eyes, sharper insight, and is willing to pay a higher price …"
"Twenty thousand," Conrad said slowly.
The surrounding treasure hunters were about to explode. What was in this storage unit? How could it attract two famous treasure hunters to compete like that?
Twenty thousand dollars! Even the total price of the previous nine storage units couldn't compare to this.
Li Du did not want to compete with Conrad because of his pride. However, if Conrad wanted to use the price to suppress him, then he was thinking too simply.
He was about to continue bidding when Bell squeezed in and whispered, "Unless I'm blind, this storage unit is not worth 20,000 dollars. It's absolutely not worth it!"
Li Du also whispered, "That's true, man, but there's something very important to me in it. I have to get it."
Bell quickly asked, "So, that kid from the Anthony family is raising the price with you? You two are now bidding maliciously? "
Li Du said helplessly, "He is willing to do so, I can only accompany him."
Bell shook his head and said to Conrad, "Hey, little Anthony, believe me, this storage unit is not worth much. There's no need to bid maliciously. Just let Li get it."
His words made Conrad very unhappy. Obviously, Bell was biased toward Li Du.
However, dissatisfaction was dissatisfaction. He did not dare to offend Bell. Even his father had to behave himself when he saw Bell. Ninety-nine percent of the treasure hunters did not dare to offend Bell.
The reason was related to Bell's nickname, 'The Son of God.' This nickname was full of religious overtones, but Bell got it not because of his faith, but because of his character.
Most treasure hunters were uncouth, but Bell was an exception. This could be seen from the way he dressed. He was always meticulous and always serious.
Bell was also different from most treasure hunters. He was friendly, kind, passionate, and generous.
Among the members of the Ten Million Dollar Club, Bell's net worth was probably the lowest. Most of the money he earned was donated to charity organizations and foundations. He even had a charity foundation.
Many treasure hunters had received help from him. Whenever they encountered difficulties, they would look for him. As long as the situation was real and Bell could help, he would definitely not stand idly by.
It could be said that Chris Bell was a representative figure in the treasure hunter community. Too many people had received help from him, and too many people owed him favors.
In this way, offending Bell was equivalent to offending a lot of people. Moreover, to offend a nice guy like Bell, it could also be seen that this person was really bad.
Bell's character could also be seen in this matter. Li Du and Conrad's bidding had nothing to do with him, but when he noticed that the two were maliciously raising the price, he took the initiative to help them resolve the conflict.
In a sense, Bell's approach was full of sacrifice. Like Jesus Christ, who was compassionate and compassionate to the world, he deserved his nickname 'The Son of God.'
Conrad pursed his lips and said, "I'm not bidding maliciously, Mr. Bell. I'm really interested in this warehouse."
Bell smiled and said, "I know, but I'd like to remind you that you're going to lose money if you buy it. You'll lose so much that your father will be disappointed when he finds out. Are you sure you want to let your father down? You know how hard it is for him in New York, and you know what he expects of you! "
Hearing this, Conrad's brow furrowed at once.
He rubbed his hands, looked at Li Du with unreconciled eyes, and finally said, "Twenty-five thousand dollars!"
Li Du understood what he meant and bid, "Twenty-five thousand and one hundred dollars!"
After this bid, Conrad returned to the crowd. White Gloves knew what was going on. Too lazy to talk nonsense, he pointed directly to Li Du and said, "Let's congratulate Mr. Li for taking this warehouse."
Li Du said to Bell, "Thank you, Chris. If it weren't for you, I would have lost a lot of money today."
Bell was still smiling. "Don't think I'm meddlesome. Besides, you've lost a lot of money. I don't think I helped you. George's son has a bad temper. "
