MTL - America’s Treasure King-Chapter 10 Note on page 1
The next day, Li Xiaoshuai still wanted to go out with Frank to participate in the warehouse auction. With the help of Li Xiaoshuai, he made more money and less garbage today, and it was completed soon.
Seeing that it's still early, Frank said that I'll take you to a treasure hunter's bar, and I'll take care of your registration, so that this kid Thiago will always blackmail you about that.
"When you get the 'dog tag', you can go to Ron to buy a car and you can go solo."
"Frank, thank you for your help during this time", Li Xiaoshuai said very sincerely.
Frank said in a big way, it's nothing, but the good luck you brought me during this period of time, which made me earn thousands of dollars more, and it's me who should say thank you.
"Let's go, the target treasure hunter bar."
The broken car rattled and bumped all the way, and soon reached the destination.
Only then did Li Xiaoshuai know that the treasure hunter bar was located in a very inconspicuous side street in Jersey City, and there was a very eye-catching "big gold brick" for decoration at the entrance.
It is estimated that I wish the treasure hunters good luck and can pick up valuable treasures at the least cost.
Under the leadership of Frank, Li Xiaoshuai walked into the bar and glanced at it. There were a dozen small tables in the bar. There was a passage from the gate to the bar. The tables were arranged on both sides, and only two tables were drinking.
"Frank, you're here, I heard that you've had good luck recently." It was Bob, the owner of the bar, who seemed to be in his 60s, with a blushing face;
According to Frank, he was a treasure hunter in the past, but when he got older, he decided to turn the bar into a meeting place for New Jersey treasure hunters. At the same time, he is also the president of the branch of treasure collectors in the state, specializing in things such as registration and rating.
Bob looked far away, saw Li Xiaoshuai behind Frank, and he said, "Ha, you are probably that rabbit country boy who wants to join the treasure hunt?"
"Yes, Mr. Bob, I need your help in the future."
Bob said, no problem; who made you the only Rabbit-born treasure hunter in our New Jersey.
Come on, Bob handed Li Xiaoshuai a form to fill out.
Li Xiaoshuai took a rough look. The title of the form was the National Association of Treasure Pickers, followed by some common questions such as name, age, home address, and mobile phone number.
The form was filled out and handed to Bob, and Li Xiaoshuai gave him a $50 registration fee and a $50 annual membership fee.
After Bob put away Li Xiaoshuai's form, he took out a small stainless steel sign with a rope from the drawer and handed it to him. Li Xiaoshuai knew that this was the treasure-picking person's identity card dubbed the dog tag by the treasure-picking person.
With this brand, Li Xiaoshuai is eligible for warehouse auction.
When he thought that he was qualified to make a lot of money, Li Xiaoshuai's spirit was particularly lifted. "The road to the pinnacle of life begins here!"
Before the matter was finished, Thornton Thiago and other people Li Xiaoshuai knew also walked in. Seeing their dejected expressions, it was estimated that they did not take pictures of the warehouse and wanted to come over for a drink.
After Bob greeted them, he introduced to Li Xiaoshuai that there are four levels of treasure hunters: black iron, silver, gold, and platinum.
For black iron, there must be three auctions in a year that net $5,000, $50,000 a year for silver, $500,000 for gold, and three auctions for $1,000,000 platinum.
The old man also specifically stated that the bank transfer must prevail.
At this time, the essence of Li Xiaoshuai's rabbit country people appeared. He thought that I just want to make money, and I am not interested in any gold and platinum level.
Besides, if I picked up a good antique and sold it that day, it would not be worth it if I had to increase taxes for this mere reputation.
Then he joked: "I just want to fill my stomach, I don't even dare to think about the gold and platinum level."
Thornton came over and said, "Lee; you have to have a dream, just like me, although I am poor, but I have always dreamed of winning the jackpot; as long as you have faith, you will succeed. In the same way, my lottery Dreams will come true."
Thornton's little brother, Kutcher, laughed, Lee; as a rule, you should treat us all to a beer.
"No problem." There are only about a dozen people, and all of them are only a few dozen dollars. Li Xiaoshuai is still willing to pay for this little money.
So Bob took out a lot of big beer glasses, poured beer cup by cup from the big copper brewing barrel, and put it on the bar for people to pick up.
When everyone got the wine, Bob exclaimed, "Guys, good luck to our new brothers."
"Good luck" everyone raised their wine glasses to congratulate them. Even Thiago, a Mexican who had always been dissatisfied with Li Xiaoshuai, did not dare to break this rule.
After a few sips of wine, everyone began to get acquainted.
Hans, a treasure hunter in New York, told Li Xiaoshuai that all treasure hunters want to get rich overnight, but this is impossible. He also pointed to everyone present and said that the most people here have been doing this for more than ten years, and they are not busy with a mouth.
The words are gone; another treasure collector also got up and said that the risk of picking treasures is still very high. The cash in it was exhausted.
What they mean, Li Xiaoshuai is very clear, it is nothing more than "picking treasures requires risks, and you need to be cautious when entering the industry."
But Li Xiaoshuai said in his heart, I am different from you, brother, I have the ability to see through, you will lose money, but I will not.
From this, he thought, it seems that I should keep a low profile, even if I find a treasure, I have to make a fortune in silence, so as not to be too public, and I will find people to hate.
Friends are always better than enemies, no matter how bad, these people are much better than enemies even if they are neutral.
When going out, Li Xiaoshuai met a beautiful woman who entered the bar head-on. The beautiful woman took a deep look at the "dog tag" Li was holding in her hand. He said contemptuously, "Another daydream guy."
Li Xiaoshuai replied, "No, I will be down-to-earth."
Thornton's loud voice came from behind, "Oh; Li is really a boring person, he doesn't even want to dream, it's not ideal."
Get in the car; leave, Frank explained to Li Xiaoshuai that the beauty just now is the only daughter of the bar owner Bob. Although this **** is among the treasure hunters, the thing she dislikes the most is Full of foul language, thinking about the rich man.
The pickup returns to Frank's rented home, Ron's garage.
Li Xiaoshuai has a license to pick up treasures, and he has a driver's license for a long time, but he doesn't have a car. He came here today to buy a used car for the treasure-picking business from Ron. The two had communicated a few days earlier.
This auto repair shop is a place that Li Xiaoshuai is very familiar with, because the boss is his best friend in middle school, and he has been here many times.
Fatty Ron is also a big foodie. He likes all the food cooked by Li's mother very much. He often goes to Li's house to eat and drink.
Found this 90kg; big fat man smelling of motor oil, but whoever thinks this fat man is slow to move is very wrong.
This guy has learned fighting, and he is extremely flexible. Every ten days and a half months, he has to go to Li's house to practice against Li Xiaoshuai, and by the way, he will also have a delicious meal.
Otherwise, the day will not be perfect.
Seeing Li Xiaoshuai, Ron took him directly to the parking lot, where there was an old second-hand pickup truck, like Frank's, a second-hand ram, "Give me 500 yuan and you drive away."
Li Xiaoshuai asked, how is the performance, don't break down halfway, then I will be miserable.
Ron said that although the car was saved by him, the performance was definitely not bad.
Ron also patted the hood of the car: "I have a lifetime warranty for the car you want. Look; I know you're going to be a treasure hunter, and I'll even give you the license plate."
"Okay, let's go to my house to practice, and ask my mother to cook you a delicious meal in the evening."
Ron jumped into his seat with a brisk walk, "What are you waiting for, we'll make our way now!"
