America’s Treasure King

At 8:15 in the morning, Li Xiaoshuai, wearing an old denim jacket, was standing at the gate of his community. The Li family's staff in this community is excellent. The neighbors who go to work in the morning continue to greet him.

After waiting for a few minutes, Frank stopped at the gate of the community in a second-hand pickup truck.

Big bull's eye; Frank, who was born in Alaska, waved to Li Xiaoshuai, signaling him to get in the car quickly. He said politely, "Brother, I have troubled you these days."

Li Xiaoshuai said with a smile, idle is idle, there is no trouble, not to mention that you are still the boss who pays wages, I will listen to you today.

"Ok" As soon as the door was closed, this pickup truck was not only used for many years, it was like a steam train, smoking black smoke and roaring out.

After a while, Li Xiaoshuai pretended to be curious and asked Frank about how the treasure hunter was doing?

Frank said that being a treasure hunter is actually quite simple. As long as you are lucky, for ten dollars, you may be able to pick up something worth fifty thousand or one hundred thousand.

Then he began to introduce it, saying that in that month of the year, he had found a great deal in such and such places, and he had made many thousands of dollars as soon as he changed hands. In a certain year and month, in what warehouse, it only took a few dollars to pick up tens of thousands of dollars of books and so on. . . . . .

When it comes to happiness, Frank frowns and spittles, completely immersed in the glories of the past.

The speaker did not intend, but listened intentionally. After listening to Frank's introduction, Li Xiaoshuai became more determined to be a treasure hunter.

Still the same sentence, antiques are not found every day, but treasures are found almost every day, and it is the right way to add up.

Li Xiaoshuai asked, "How do you know where there is a warehouse auction?"

"Look online. You can find it anywhere in the warehouse auction. But if you want to participate in the auction, you need to be a registered professional treasure hunter."

"Oh" Li Xiaoshuai said heartily, even if I have the power of clairvoyance, I still need someone to take it with me when it comes to reality. For example, this qualification certification is the first time I hear it.

After chatting for a while, the car stopped at a warehouse company in New Rochelle, not far north of Manhattan Island.

Speaking of warehouse auctions, I have to say that many people in the United States like to rent warehouses to store things that are not used temporarily, such as renting a small temporary warehouse when traveling.

If the warehouse has expired, if the relocation procedure has not been renewed and the relocation procedure has not been completed, the items in the warehouse will be automatically owned by the warehouse company, and the warehouse company will generally auction off these expired warehouses.

Before the auction, the warehouse company will publish an announcement on the website to attract treasure hunters to bid. The warehouse company will not open the warehouse to check the items, otherwise the auction will be meaningless.

It is worth mentioning that Europe and the United States have very detailed garbage classification methods, and it takes a lot of money to deal with garbage.

If you take pictures of the warehouse, you must completely empty all the things in it, including the garbage, you can't pick the fat ones, only take the valuables and leave the garbage behind, otherwise you will be blacklisted.

Therefore, in order to save money on garbage disposal, many families in developed countries rent a warehouse for garbage disposal, and do not renew the fee when it expires, leaving the trouble to the warehouse company.

Therefore, more than 90% of the warehouses auctioned are worthless or even pay for waste disposal.

However, after the auction, all the property rights are transferred to the hands of the treasurer, no matter how much the value is, even if the warehouse company regrets it, it is useless.

Everyone knows this, and it has almost become a folk custom, so without Frank's introduction, Li Xiaoshuai also knows it.

After getting off the bus, Li Xiaoshuai saw from the house number that the company was called Kavira Warehouse Company, depending on the scale; it was a large warehouse company with more than 100 warehouses.

The entire warehouse area is full of gray concrete floors, with a lot of houses made of corrugated steel plates on top, and the rows look like military camps.

There were several pickup trucks parked in front of the company. Li Xiaoshuai guessed that they were the same treasure hunters as Frank, and there were three black people among them. They all gathered together and laughed.

One of the black people also said: "Frank, you have a new guy today? Oh; he still looks like a Rabbit."

Frank took Li Xiaoshuai with him and introduced that this was his temporary partner, Li from Rabbit Country.

"Hi, how are you?" Li Xiaoshuai greeted them politely.

A man who looked Mexican said sarcastically, "Frank, with your unlucky luck, I don't think you'll be able to get your wages back today."

"Bullshit!"

Frank blushed angrily, with a thick neck, and kept defending that his luck had always been good, and it would not be bad today.

The Mexican continued to beat Frank: "You can still have good luck, so your original partner is gone?"

A group of treasure collectors said in unison: "It's not that he was forced away by his bad luck!"

While joking, several more cars came over. Li Xiaoshuai estimated that the number of people had reached fifteen or sixteen. Most of these people are familiar with each other, and they have to make a few jokes when they come.

Among them, there are friend partners, husband and wife partners, and single ones, but they are relatively few.

The door of the warehouse company opened, and everyone immediately gave up their eloquence and filed in. Before taking a few steps, someone who claimed to be an auctioneer shouted, "Follow me."

Frank said that following the auctioneer is to see the warehouse that is about to be auctioned. Each bidder will give one minute. Whether you see it clearly or not, the door will be closed immediately.

Also, you can't step into the warehouse shutter door when you watch it, otherwise you will be disqualified from the auction.

Li Xiaoshuai asked, what should I do if the house is so dark that I can't see it?

Frank took out a palm-length flashlight from his pocket, "Rely on this."

After learning another trick, Li Xiaoshuai said in his heart that I have to prepare one too, which is by no means exempt.

We must not give up this tradition just because we only have a perspective eye. There is no need to give birth to an accident for a small matter of a few dollars.

There are 4 warehouses auctioned today, namely warehouses 14; 28; 71; 77.

The auctioneer walked to the warehouse marked No. 14. First, the old man talked about the rules of the auction. With the constant urging of everyone, he ended the chatter about the rules.

However, Li Xiaoshuai still heard useful information from it, that is, cash is used in warehouse auctions, and transfers and checks are not accepted. He thought to himself that this was probably to facilitate tax evasion.

In the United States, people say that only one person can't escape death and paying taxes.

Opening the lock on the warehouse shutter door, Li Xiaoshuai didn't use a see-through eye at all, he could see clearly only with his naked eyes. The warehouse, which is estimated to be 20 square meters, is empty. The ground is full of old newspapers, and there are two empty boxes with open mouths in the corners.

The crowd of treasure hunters also glanced at them, and then said, "Oh, garbage", and they never wanted to take a second look.

As soon as Li Xiaoshuai's mind turned around, he immediately understood.

The people who come here to participate in the shooting are all professional treasure hunters who want to make money. They are here for money, and there is no profit at all. Who will clean the house for you for nothing?

The next warehouse is No. 28, the auctioneer opened the shutter door, and everyone rushed up.

In the scolding of the auctioneer, everyone took turns holding a strong flashlight to shine in, their necks stretched out, trying to see the collection in the warehouse.

This warehouse is also clear at a glance. There are many household utensils in it, including a washing machine and dishwasher that looks half-new, and an antique radio that looks like a washing machine and belongs to the 1930s and 1940s.

There is also a guitar hanging on the wall, and by the inner wall, there is a wooden cabinet.

This time, Li Xiaoshuai used the ability to see through eyes, and his eyes immediately penetrated the wooden board. Inside were several pairs of old running shoes, and it also showed: "Old sneakers, produced in 2007."

Warehouse No. 71 looks like a wood workshop. There are still a lot of sawdust on the ground. There is a cabinet in the corner that has just been finished but not yet painted. UU Reading www.uukanshu. com A few logs with thick bowls, and a few barrels of unopened paint.

The most worth seeing is the lump in the middle of the warehouse covered by the oilcloth. Everyone can guess this little secret. It is definitely woodworking machinery.

The only thing to bet on is which kind of machinery, whether it is a machine plane or a machine saw, and the condition is only a few percent new.

Driven by curiosity, Li Xiaoshuai looked at it with a perspective eye. Under the tarpaulin was a saw belt planer, that is, the saw and planer were on the same machine.

Perspective Eye also prompts: "Saw belt planer made in Germany, produced in 2008."

Li Xiaoshuai said in his heart that the machine from a few years ago should still be quite new.

Looking back, in a wooden box next to the cabinet, the perspective eye continued to prompt: "A set of handmade carpenter's utensils made in Germany, produced in 2008."

Li Xiaoshuai secretly said, at this time he learned another trick, look carefully at things, otherwise valuables will be missed.

The auctioneer closed the shutter door, and the big guy continued to follow to the last warehouse No. 77.

As soon as the warehouse of No. 77 was opened, the bright lights flashed immediately. With the light, Li Xiaoshuai saw that the warehouse was full of kitchen equipment from the big hotel.

There are electric ovens, frying pans, boxes of plates and spoons stacked against the wall, boxes marked with the names of various seasonings, and cardboard boxes marked with famous wines.

Li Xiaoshuai looked at it again with a perspective eye. The box was completely refitted with oil and salt, saying that if it was photographed as a famous wine, it would definitely lose money.

There are only four warehouses in total. Excluding the first one, No. 11 is a worthless empty house. In fact, only three can be put up for auction.

The auctioneer locked this warehouse, and brought people back to the 11th warehouse at the beginning.

The auction has started.
