Conrad and his party looked quite embarrassed. In this confrontation, he was completely defeated and bullied by Li Du.
Li Du did not think much about it. He rarely provoked people, but if someone provoked him, he would not swallow it. He would definitely return the favor.
The local treasure hunters saw that there was a conflict and that Conrad and his party had suffered a loss. What they did not see was that Conrad and his party had asked for it.
These people went to Conrad and his party to ask what was going on. Conrad and his party certainly would not take the blame. They muttered, pointed fingers, and put the blame on Li Du and his party.
Li Du had expected this to happen. He had also noticed that after Conrad and his group had finished speaking, these people looked at him with unfriendly gazes.
Hans noticed it too. He frowned and said, "Damn, these bastards must be behind this. We have to explain."
Li Du asked, "How? We just said that this is Indiana, this is the east. We are invaders. The local treasure hunters thought we were here to rob them of their wealth. Can you change their mind? "
Hans shrugged and did not speak. It was true.
Perhaps after talking, Conrad and his party were in a better mood. They did not come to find Li Du and his party again. They quietly waited for the door of the storage company to open.
At half past eight, the weather turned hot, but Indiana was in the northeast of the United States. It was not the same as Phoenix, the hot stove of the southwest. Although the sun had risen, it was not particularly hot.
In Phoenix for the summer storage auction, the treasure hunters had to bring cold beer, or they would be prone to dehydration and heatstroke.
It was certainly not necessary in Indianapolis, where people were more civilized and polite. Of course, this was only for white people. They were not so friendly to people of color.
If someone drank at the auction here, they would probably be regarded as an alcoholic.
The door of the storage company opened, and the treasure hunters swarmed in. A white auctioneer and several security guards came out, talking and laughing, and signaled the treasure hunters to line up to see.
Li Du habitually stood at the back of the line. Immediately, a few white men stared at him unkindly, and then went to the back of him.
Seeing this, he smiled bitterly. He had forgotten that this was not his home ground.
The young man with dark circles noticed and sneered, "Hey, you are just a member of the Hundred Thousand Club. Do you think you are the king of treasure hunting? Should I prepare a throne for you? "
Li Du said calmly, "You were beaten by a kangaroo."
The young man's face turned red. "Understand the situation. Why did you sneak attack us just now? Come and touch me if you dare! "
"You were beaten by a kangaroo before," Li Du said calmly.
The young man gritted his teeth and roared, "Shut up, you damn bastard. You brought a beast to a restaurant? How uncultured. Are all the people in China so uncultured? "
"You were beaten by a kangaroo."
The young man was about to go crazy. One of the treasure hunters couldn't take it anymore and frowned. "Alright, can you stop arguing? China, buddy, why don't you say something else? Or do you really want to fight here? "
Li Du said, "Let me rephrase, your face has been pooped on by a raccoon!"
The young man went crazy and rushed up to beat them up. However, he was held back by Conrad and the others. Otherwise, he would have been expelled.
The door to the first warehouse opened, and everyone lined up to look inside.
Li Du looked at the door symbolically. He had no interest in this warehouse.
The others did the same. They also came for the sneakers warehouse. These ordinary warehouses did not have much profit, and most of them were not interested.
Of course, not all of the people who came to this auction came for the sneakers warehouse. Some people were interested in the ordinary warehouses. They had little capital and could not participate in the competition for the sneakers warehouse, which was destined to be expensive.
At the end of the tour, the auctioneer stood up and began to shout, "Alright, everyone finished looking, right? I won't repeat the rules. Is there anything you don't understand? Who doesn't understand? Let me explain. "
Hearing the auctioneer's words, Li Du was a little surprised. "Isn't this guy's attitude too friendly?"
The auctioneers in Arizona and California spoke as if they were singing a rap song. They couldn't wait to say a hundred sentences in one breath without pausing in between.
Moreover, those auctioneers didn't ask for the opinions of the treasure hunters. Here, it was like asking questions in a classroom.
Hans shrugged. "I told you, the pace here is very slow. The competition between the treasure hunters is not fierce, and the attitude is very friendly."
No one had any objections. The auctioneer began to shout, "Then, let's start with 100 dollars. This warehouse is good. One hundred dollars higher."
"I'll pay 100 dollars!"
"Hey, two hundred dollars, I can accept it."
"Three hundred dollars …"
The bidding atmosphere was also quite relaxed. The price was raised from 100 dollars to 800 dollars. The treasure hunters bidding left one after another, leaving only the winner.
The process of the next few warehouses was similar. The auction ended in a very friendly atmosphere. There was no conflict between the treasure hunters, and there was no conflict.
Finally, warehouse 220 was opened. The treasure hunters suddenly crowded over and could not wait to see this warehouse.
Most people came for it. They all knew that if this warehouse was handled properly, it would be very profitable.
Compared to these people, Li Du had an advantage. It was not that the little bug could see the sneakers, but that Kobe had told him the value of these sneakers. The total value was at least two million dollars!
Many of the shoes were sets. Once they were in a set, their value would increase. There were also many shoes signed by football stars, which were even more valuable.
The other treasure hunters did not know. They only knew that these were shoes collected by football stars. They knew that the value would not be low, but they did not know how much it was.
Big Ivan was attending a warehouse auction for the first time. He was curious about everything.
Listening to the discussion of the treasure hunters, he knew the value of the warehouse and asked, "Why didn't the owner of the warehouse come back to bid for it? The money needed to bid for these shoes must be less than the value of the shoes, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have bought it. "
Li Du nodded. "Yes, the reason why Duncan Jones didn't come to buy these shoes is because he is in a lawsuit with the warehouse company. He wants to recover the shoes through legal channels."
Jones did breach the contract first. The boss knew the value of the warehouse. It could be sold for at least hundreds of thousands. How could he give up this fat piece of meat?
At the end of the tour, the auction began. White Gloves laughed and said, "I saw your expressions. This is going to be a tough battle. Everyone, don't be willing to spend money, because it is bound to cost a lot!"
"Well, I am honored to announce that the starting price of warehouse 220 is 100,000 dollars. Each bid is 1,000 dollars. Now, bid!"
Li Du nodded to Hans and said, "Draw your sword!"
