MTL - America’s Treasure King-Chapter 12 bet first
In the evening, my mother Xia Huifang began to persuade her wholeheartedly again, saying that there is no way out for picking up garbage in the United States, and regardless of your good income these days, it is just the beginning, and you will cry later.
If this news is transmitted to the hometown, the relatives in the hometown will not be laughed to death.
To say that you, Li Xiaoshuai, a young American who was born and bred in the United States, did not go to work in a big company, but instead, he was arrogant and picked up foreign garbage, which is simply a shame to throw it abroad.
Also, what would your girlfriend Elaine think, and what would Elaine's parents think?
Li Xiaoshuai hasn't made any achievements yet, so he can only listen to his mother's nagging and can't refute it, although he doesn't like her mother's statement very much.
The heart said, I must make some achievements, and let you all shut up for me!
For a few days after that, Li Xiaoshuai held his breath and went out every day to go out in the morning and night. Either three hundred or one thousand would be a good harvest.
On Friday morning, a good night of rain made New York City a lot cooler, and the breeze was blowing with the scent of flowers, plants, fruits and trees, which was refreshing.
After Li Xiaoshuai had breakfast, he was ready to go out as usual. Mama Li said, come back early tonight, I have invited Elaine to have dinner in the evening, she will rest tomorrow, and you can take some time to go out with her.
"Haoge, there is good food in the evening, why don't you call the fat man together?"
The fat man in Li Xiaoshuai's mouth is Ron, and he is also one of Li's mother's favorite juniors.
"Can."
Just after going out, he also met Elaine's mother Lisa.
Aunt Lisa works as the lobby manager of a jewelry store. She is a very capable, shrewd and strong French descendant.
He has blond hair, high heels, business attire, thin pastels on his face, bright eyes, capable movements, and a brand-name bag on his hand.
The two men, one old and one young, in her family were all obediently managed by her.
Seeing Li Xiaoshuai, Lisa immediately stopped him and asked, "I heard that you are a treasure hunter recently?"
"Yes, Auntie, I need to survive."
"I don't think you have reached the point where you lack food and clothing. You have artistic skills. I hope you can return to the jewelry design industry."
"OK."
Lisa, who got into the car, stuck her head out of the window, "Remember, don't forget about professionalism!"
After speaking, start the car and drive away.
Li Xiaoshuai said to himself, he is another person who looks down on treasure hunters!
The more you look down on it, the more I will do it, I will definitely make a good result for you to see!
At the warehouse company, Frank, the three black partners, Thiago and the others have already arrived.
Thornton also asked Li Xiaoshuai if he came so late, was the nightlife too rich last night?
Li Xiaoshuai didn't want to tell his troubles, so he lied that he spent a long time shopping on the junk shop last night.
Second-hand goods websites, these professional treasure hunters will basically go to second-hand goods websites. Even if they don’t sell anything, they should go there to learn about the market conditions.
The "Ka Ka Ka" warehouses were opened. The auctioneer was a middle-aged man. He said that today there were six warehouses to be auctioned, but now there are four warehouses. The other two people have already made up the rent.
There are more monks and less porridge, and no one wants to come here for nothing, which means that the competition is fierce, so the auction price will naturally rise a lot. A lot of people started cursing "Oh; shit."
The auctioneer finished saying the auction rules like a sutra, and then there was a one-minute viewing time.
As soon as the door of the first warehouse was opened, there was nothing in it except the **** all over the floor, and it was naturally discarded by everyone.
The second warehouse looks a little better. There is also a row of wood fitter's workbenches, and there are tools such as bench vices on it. It also looks very old, and a thick layer of dust has accumulated on the countertops .
Frank, Thornton and others yelled again and again, saying that this warehouse company was a big liar and tricked us into coming over; it turned out that there was nothing in it, which was so irritating.
Li Xiaoshuai said heartily, "You can't scold your mother just because you're old. Let me see what else is in the cabinet under the console."
Start the perspective eye, Li Xiaoshuai is happy. He saw that in the cabinet under the fitter table, there were many discarded palm-sized pieces; copper cable connectors as thick as bricks.
"Yes, scrap copper is also valuable." I wrote down this warehouse in my heart.
As soon as the shutter door of the third warehouse was opened, everyone's eyes lit up. There was a long wooden box on top of the cabinet in the warehouse, which was at the highest position and was very conspicuous.
"Gun case!" Thornton blurted out.
Several others fit the bill, yes; definitely old gun cases.
Frank wanted it, and Thiago wanted it too, all of them were thinking about this warehouse.
Li Xiaoshuai understood that they were ready to bet on whether there was an old gun of great value in a gun box. On the contrary, the old TV sets and plastic turnover boxes in the warehouse are directly ignored.
"Let me also see if there is a gun in the box." Looking through the perspective, the gun box was empty, not even a bullet.
Well, you go grab the guns, and I'll collect the scrap copper.
The fourth warehouse is even more dilapidated. There are some abandoned furniture, such as old sofas, old lockers, etc., piled up in a small warehouse.
The auction started, and the first one passed in directly.
Everyone here is rushing for money, and a warehouse with no income at all, let alone an auction, is a free gift, and no treasure collector here will want it.
The second warehouse, which Li Xiaoshuai saw with his clairvoyant eyes; the warehouse containing scrap copper blocks, the auctioneer's starting price is $100.
Nielsen from the husband and wife team raised his hand, and Li Xiaoshuai raised his hand too, and everyone else was watching.
Looking at the situation, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Li Xiaoshuai understood that those few of them who didn't raise their hands wanted to spend their money "on the edge" and were not prepared to waste money on these worthless warehouses.
"$150" Li Xiaoshuai jumped 50 yuan directly.
Nelson scolded a lunatic and shrugged to quit.
The auctioneer said, "Okay, for $150, the warehouse is yours. Next..."
After locking the warehouse, Li Xiaoshuai simply followed along to see who was the most unlucky in the end.
It's not that he likes to watch other people's jokes, but that the auction hasn't ended yet, he hasn't paid the money yet, and it's not time to clean up the warehouse.
Before the third warehouse, the auctioneer's starting price was 200 yuan. At this price, the auctioneer obviously saw the gun case.
The hands below were raised like a forest, and almost all who could raise their hands raised their hands.
Li Xiaoshuai saw that Thornton's eyes were about to burst into flames, and he looked like he was bound to win, and Frank also looked around, looking very nervous.
At $250, it's still like a forest.
At $300, it was the same people who raised their hands. It seems that everyone is competing with this gun case. . . . . .
The price went all the way up and quickly hit $1,000.
In the end, Thornton won it with $1,500. The guy was happy and twisted his buttocks and danced. Say, "I'm going to get rich, get rich, hahaha!"
Li Xiaoshuai, who was standing beside Thiago, clearly heard his vicious curse. "I hope it's an empty box!"
"Most foreign devils are careful." This is Li Xiaoshuai's biggest feeling since he entered the industry to pick up treasures.
The last warehouse that seemed worthless was photographed by Thiago at a very cheap price.
