Karl was so angry that he wanted to kill someone. He had expected to make a profit from the storage unit, but it turned out to be a loss.
Not only did he lose money on this unit, but he had also secretly spent money to buy information about the unit. All in all, it was a lot of money.
Rambis obviously knew what kind of person his brother-in-law was. Seeing Carl's anger, he immediately hid far away.
Carl picked up a plastic fender and threw it at the crowd, shouting, "Don't block my light! Get out of my way!"
"Poor little b * tch, he's already going crazy," a big black man laughed.
Hans said, "How else do you think he got his nickname, Manic Carl?"
"Oh yeah, haha." The big black man raised his fist at him. The two of them bumped fists and laughed together.
This was the current situation in the storage auction industry. Everyone wanted their peers to die early to reduce the competition.
After watching the fun, Li Du and Hans went back to clean up their unit.
They saw Rambis smoking next to another storage unit. Hans asked, "Whose tears are flowing down?"
"F * ck you! Rotten wood collecting maniac! "Rambis cursed.
Hans sneered, "Rotten wood, you think we bought that unit for —"
"You think we bought that unit to help them clean up? No, we used it for exercise. What's the difference between playing with wood in a storage unit and playing with iron in the gym? "Li Du interrupted him.
Rambis spat out his cigarette and gave them the middle finger. "Go to hell!"
Hans asked, "There's more than rotten wood in our storage unit, right?"
Li Du said, "I'm not sure, but no matter what we get, we should keep a low profile. Making a fortune quietly is the way to go, my brother!"
Hans laughed and said, "Yes, quietly making a fortune."
After entering the unit, they first opened their backpacks and boxes. Inside were broken tents, old ropes, shovels, hammers, broken pots, and scrap metal.
A few treasure hunters who were watching the fun at the entrance lost interest. They left one after another, waving their hands.
"Congratulations on finding a camping enthusiast's unit."
"That's a lumberjack's unit, idiot!"
"See you again, Big Fox, Li. Looks like you're in luck."
Hans scratched his head. "D * mn, where's the treasure?"
Li Du opened a wooden box. A metal lump and a bunch of pipes rolled out. "Does this count?"
Hans said, "An individual water pump, and these pipes are high-pressure flexible water pipes. The combination of the two will produce a powerful impact. Hmm, this thing can be sold for some money. "
"How much?"
"A thousand dollars shouldn't be a problem. Is this what you saw?" Hans asked.
Li Du quietly scratched the wood beside him, then patted it and said, "No, I saw this."
He took out his flashlight and shone it through the door. "Come here and see what you can find."
There were dozens of pine trees in the warehouse. They had been badly eaten by termites. In some places, the bark and trunk had been gnawed off, revealing holes of various sizes.
Hans came over to take a closer look and said, "What is this? Tree hole? The light wasn't right. Damn it, damn it, damn it! There's something inside! "
Li Du nodded and smiled. "Yes, I saw this, so I'm sure there's something hidden in it."
Of course, that was not the case. The tree hole had just been enlarged and revealed a bit of the face of the thing inside. Otherwise, with so many treasure hunters, it would have been seen sooner or later.
There was a hammer in the warehouse. Hans picked it up and smashed the pine tree.
Just like that, a tubular object appeared.
This tubular object was about six feet long and curved like a crescent moon. Its whole body was a mix of brown, yellow, and white. The diameter of the root was about 30 centimeters, and it gradually tapered towards the front.
After breaking open the pine tree, Hans crouched down with his head in his hands. "F * ck, ivory! D * mn, it's ivory! "
Yes, it was ivory. When the little bug passed through the pine tree and saw this thing, Li Du was overjoyed.
There were a total of five pieces of ivory in the warehouse. This thing was more valuable than Ferrari parts!
But looking at Hans's expression, he did not seem excited. Li Du asked, "Isn't it good that we found ivory?"
Hans gave a sad smile. "Unless we successfully register with the customs, ivory is a prohibited product in the United States. That means we can't sell it, and can only keep it in our house."
Li Du's happy mood also cooled down. "D * mn, there's such a thing? That's right, if trade was allowed, there would be a lot of people poaching elephants. "
As the ivory was found one by one, Hans's smile became more and more sad. Finally, looking at the five tusks of different sizes, he almost covered his face and cried.
Li Du patted his shoulder and said, "Forget it, brother. Cheer up. At least we got a water pump and so many high-pressure water pipes. This warehouse is worth a profit."
The two of them packed up the things in the car. The ivory was hidden at the bottom. If it was found on the road, it would be confiscated.
Seeing that Hans was not in a good mood, Li Du personally drove the car and headed towards Flagstaff.
When the car entered Flagstaff's city center, Hans suddenly slammed the counter in front of the passenger seat and roared, "I'm such a f * cking idiot!"
Ah Meow, who was dozing off, jumped up in shock. "Meow!"
Ah Meow jumped too high and hit the roof of the car, bouncing off. It was shocked and in pain, meowing non-stop.
Li Du was also shocked. He quickly stepped on the brakes and scolded, "D * mn Big Fox, what the hell are you doing? Do you want to die or what? If you want to die, you can go ahead and die by yourself. Don't f * cking —"
"That's not ivory! That's mammoth ivory! "Hans reached out and grabbed Li Du's clothes.
Li Du said, "Huh?"
Hans opened the door and jumped out of the car. He lifted the wood in the car and looked inside. "I'm so stupid, really, I'm so stupid. I didn't realize it. How can this be ivory?
So long, so thick, so big. How can elephants grow like this? African ivory is at most one meter long. The shortest one here is one and a half meters long! This is mammoth ivory! This is mammoth ivory!
"Also, if it's poached ivory, what about the poached guns? It's fine if there's no gun, but why is there a water pump and high-pressure water pipes?
"The reason is simple. Mammoth ivory is almost always buried in the ground or under rocks. Shovels and pickaxes have to be used to dig them out.
"We found these tools, but they can damage the ivory during excavation. So when traces of ivory are found, we have to use a water pump and high-pressure water pipes to wash them!"
Hans tried his best to pull out a tusk. He stretched out his hand and dug with all his might. "Look, this is hardened clay. Normal ivory wouldn't be dug out from the ground, and there wouldn't be something like this!"
Li Du stared at him blankly. "Your tongue is really flexible. You're very good at answering your own questions."
"F * ck, we're going to be rich! We're going to be rich! "
"Woo woo woo woo …" A police car drove over with its siren blaring.
Li Du shouted, "Run, police!"
