America’s Treasure King
Chapter 19: struggle and jealousy 1
Monday was another good day to make money. Li Xiaoshuai still drove the pickup out early. If it was late, the road was blocked so badly that he would be late.
In the warehouse company on the east side of New York City, Li Xiaoshuai saw that there are many more built than he came from. The most conspicuous is the Thornton combination, all three of them are in a dejected posture.
On one side, there was Thiago, a **** stirrer, who was talking and laughing sarcastically.
Li Xiaoshuai knew without asking, this must be because they spent a lot of money on lottery tickets in Thornton last night, and they lost everything again.
He didn't want to interact with these people anymore, so he just waited for Frank to come over in the car.
After a while, Frank came over in his classic car. He came with a pinch, and just as he stopped the car, the door of the warehouse company opened.
A young auctioneer called together all fifteen or sixteen treasure collectors today and told them that nine warehouses would be put up for auction today and asked everyone to follow him.
In the first warehouse, there are few things in it, one is placed against the wall; an old sofa with torn leather, a broken cabinet with mottled paint, a few cardboard boxes on the ground, and nothing else.
A lot of people say "rubbish."
Rubbish?
Li Xiaoshuai had already seen it with his clairvoyant ability, this warehouse is very valuable, and he must take pictures of this warehouse!
The second; that's a really empty warehouse with no value at all.
As soon as the shutter door of the third warehouse was opened, someone exclaimed, "The rear wheel of a Harley-Davidson motorcycle", so Guangxian, who had more than a dozen strong flashlights, stared at the rear wheel.
Li Xiaoshuai also saw that in this warehouse full of debris, behind the mattress, a complete rear buttock of a Harley-Davidson motorcycle was revealed. The shocks are also brand new.
A brand new Harley motorcycle costs at least tens of thousands of dollars, and even if the one in the warehouse is an old one, it can still sell for a good price of three or five thousand dollars.
Many people are moved.
The fourth warehouse is also full of debris, but the conspicuous place here is that a boxy antique sitting clock is placed in a Shanghai cabinet.
Looking at the year, it is also a hundred years old. The ebony clock case has exquisite carvings on it.
When everyone was counting the time, Li Xiaoshuai took another look at it with a perspective eye, but he was disappointed. This antique clock is nothing but a piece of shit. The movement inside is gone. Whoever buys it loses money.
He also heard Thiago excitedly say that today is here, and there are Harley motorcycles and antique clocks, which is a great deal.
The fifth is an empty warehouse, the sixth warehouse can only be seen with the naked eye, only a few small copper plates on the ground, and then there will be a large box, no one can guess what is inside.
Li Xiaoshuai looked left and right. Thiago, Thornton and the others were not interested in this warehouse. Their appetites were all seduced by the "Harley motorcycles" and "antique clocks" just now.
The seventh and eighth warehouses are full of rubbish.
The ninth warehouse is considered normal, and it is full of waste thrown away from ordinary homes.
On the way back to the first warehouse, Li Xiaoshuai whispered to Frank that the third and fourth warehouses are too valuable, and you probably won't be able to grab them. The sixth warehouse is suitable for you. I suggest you try your luck. Don't say I told you.
The words have already been said, it depends on whether Frank listens or not, and Li Xiaoshuai has to wait and see.
If Frank listened, he continued to give him some information, and if he didn't listen, it was over.
The auction kicked off, with the first warehouse auctioneer placing a $50 starting bid.
There were very few people raising their hands. Li Xiaoshuai looked at him. In addition to himself, there were Frank, Nelson, and Ramos of the father-son team raising their hands.
At $75, these are still the ones raising their hands.
Li Xiaoshuai clearly saw that Thiago also looked at the people who raised their hands with joy. It is estimated that Thiago hoped that everyone would compete on these low-value warehouses, so that he could leave warehouses No. 3 and No. 4 to him.
When it reached $100, Li Xiaoshuai was the only one who raised his hand. Everyone felt that the value of this warehouse was so great, and there would be a risk of losing money if it continued to shoot.
Auctioneer: "Okay, for $100, this warehouse is yours."
Li Xiaoshuai pulled down the rolling shutter door of the warehouse and locked it with the big copper lock he brought with him. He continued to follow the crowd to the next warehouse without changing his face.
In front of the No. 4 warehouse, the auctioneer said directly: "There may be a warehouse for Harley-Davidson motorcycles. The starting price... $300."
Thiago raised his hand and jumped directly to 400, Thornton bid 500, Nelson 600, the price climbed all the way, rose rapidly, and soon broke the thousand.
It was another round of bidding, and the $2,000 mark was easily crossed, and the auctioneer was excited to see the competition so fierce.
The total auction price is linked to his benefit today. The higher the total auction price, the more commission he will get today, and the auctioneer's voice will become louder.
When the price reached $2,500, there were few competitors, and only Thornton, Thiago, and a treasure hunter from New York were still struggling.
Thornton: "I will pay 2700, and I will order this warehouse!"
Thiago offered $2,900, and he also said the warehouse belonged to him. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
The treasure hunter from New York offered 3,000, and he also turned to Thornton; both of Thiago showed his fists, meaning that he would also fight.
Li Xiaoshuai whispered to Frank that at this price, if he didn't find a complete Harley, it would be a big loss.
"Yes, I have calmed down now, and I feel that the risk is too great." Frank said with a deep sympathy. This would be regarded as a certain understanding of Li Xiaoshuai's stability.
In the end, the heart is a college student. He can calculate and estimate risks. This is worth learning.
At $3,200, the New Yorker also flinched, and only the determined Thornton and Thiago were still competing.
In the end, the warehouse was taken over by Thiago for $3,500.
After locking the shutter door, he yelled, "You all have to wait and see me get rich."
The fourth warehouse is the warehouse with an antique clock on the bright side. The auctioneer's starting price is still $300. The hands are raised like a forest below, and Li Xiaoshuai raised his hands a few times in the crowd.
Like the previous warehouse, the price has been rising all the way, rising rapidly, and soon to $2,900. Those who are able to bid, there are still Thornton and the New Yorker.
"$3,000, I'm going to order it!" Thornton was so imposing, it was considered that he suppressed the treasure hunters from New York.
The angry New Yorker also looked at picking up the treasure, turned his head and drove away.
The high-value warehouse was auctioned off, and no one was willing to bid for the next two warehouses. The sixth warehouse was won by Frank for $200.
The ninth warehouse was easily won by Nielsen for $120.
The few treasure hunters who have not left are waiting for Thornton and Thiago to open the door to pick up the treasure. They want to see the final result.
