MTL - Treasure Hunt Tycoon-Chapter 5 In hand
上午 On the morning of February 1, the weather was overcast.
Early in the morning, Li Du and Hans took the bus to the premises of the Smith Warehouse Company.
The auction was held at nine o'clock. The reason why Hans arrived early was to observe his opponents.
He knew that Li Du was participating in the auction for the first time, and he constantly introduced him with some common sense things: "Being on the scene in advance is to know yourself and you have to know what opponents you have, so you can adjust the bidding strategy ... "
It was half past eight, and there were only half an hour left until the auction began. All the people who were interested in the warehouse arrived. Li Du looked around and visually saw that there were more than fifty people.
It put him under pressure: "So many people in eight warehouses want to shoot?"
Hans said: "They are all aimed at massage chairs. Don't worry, half of these people are not sure that they will not shoot, and the remaining half and half just want to pick up leaks at low prices. In short, we will get a warehouse. I have prepared enough money. "
"You can still get money?" Li Du was a little strange. "How did you get it?"
Hans didn't answer, "Why did we come today?"
"Take a bus, Xuete, are you saying you sold your car?" Li Du was shocked.
"No, it is temporarily mortgaged, but I will not buy it back within three days, then this car does not belong to me. So, are you reliable or reliable? Can you really find the warehouse where the massage chairs are located ?!"
Li Dudao: "My homework is not done in vain. It is probably pretty good now. Check back later and I will find the warehouse you want."
At ten o'clock, an old man wearing a cowboy hat stepped out and roared at a very fast pace: "Everyone lined me up. The warehouse auction started right away. I do n’t talk too much about who does n’t know or participate in this auction. Yes & *% ¥ # …… ”
Li Du has always felt that his English is good, until this moment he did not know that he was too confident!
The warehouse opened, and a group of people passed in line. Most people held flashlights in their hands. Each person had a minute to watch at the door. The old man in the cowboy hat watched his watch, and at the same time monitored if anyone crossed the line.
Each person has a minute, and more than fifty people are close to an hour.
There probably wasn't much valuable stuff in the No. 202 warehouse, mainly some household tools and obsolete furniture appliances. These things belonged to garbage.
People picking treasures are not picking up rags. They only buy warehouses that they think are valuable. If they are not sure they can make money, they will not buy them.
美国人 Because Americans believe that time and labor are money, it takes a loss of time and energy to help the warehouse company clean up.
When it was Hans and Li Du's turn, the two walked to the door. Hans took a picture of the wolf-eye flashlight in the warehouse and explained to him at the same time:
"First of all, look for something that may be valuable. It depends on your vision and experience. Look here. There is a box with the words 'Handle with care.' I guess there are glass products in it that are probably bowls and saucers. And that There is a handle on the side, I think it is a vacuum cleaner ... "
杜 Li Du nodded and found that he couldn't underestimate these occupations.
Hans's judgment was correct. He had seen it with a worm at first, and there were some beautiful porcelain plates and bowls in the box, and the vacuum cleaner was exposed.
One minute was up, and Hans whispered after the two left: "The contents inside are now worth around 500 yuan, and I guess someone will be willing to take it around 300 yuan."
拍卖 After the visit, the auction starts.
老 The old man with a cowboy hat raised his hand and said, "Does anyone have a starting price of one hundred and one hundred dollars and one hundred dollars and one hundred and fifty dollars and one hundred and fifty dollars ..."
Sunda spoke super fast, and Li Du listened with some difficulty.
Immediately someone nodded, and the old man nodded his finger and said, "Now it's 150 dollars, 150 dollars, 150 dollars. Are you willing to pay 200 dollars for 200 dollars ..."
"Yes!" Someone shouted.
The old man changed to the person who pointed to the latest bid: "It's already two hundred dollars and two hundred dollars. So how about three hundred dollars and three hundred dollars?"
In this way, the auctioneer bids, and the bidders follow the price. If he can accept the price, he will be prompted, and he will immediately make another price.
However, the old man directly raised the price by one hundred yuan. No one immediately followed. Obviously everyone thought that the things in this warehouse were not worth the money.
Hans raised his hand: "220 yuan!"
Li Du was surprised: "You want to buy this? There is no massage chair in this."
Hans snorted and said, "Rest assured, this warehouse is worth more than 220 yuan, and some people will bid up. I'll show you some bidding rules."
"When the price given by the auctioneer is unacceptable, you can make a random offer, as long as it is higher than the price previously accepted."
It is true that he just finished speaking, and the auctioneer said, "220 US dollars, 220 US dollars, then 250 US dollars, 250 US dollars, how can anyone accept the immediate offer ..."
"YEP!"
"The price of $ 250, $ 250, $ 250 has reached $ 275, so does anyone want it?"
No one raises the price again, the auctioneer raises his right index finger: "250 dollars for the first time, 250 dollars for the second time, I am about to call it over soon, no one accepts? OK, 250 dollars, this gentleman won the bid!
A Mexican man nodded and went to the auctioneer to get a list. He pulled the shutter door and locked it with his own lock, and obtained ownership of the warehouse for the next 24 hours.
这么 Warehouses 203 and 204 were auctioned out in this way. The former auctioned US $ 300, while the latter auctioned only US $ 125. Both warehouses can't see anything valuable from the outside.
When he reached warehouse 205, Li Du saw a large box covering a massage chair through a gap in a shelf.
He looked for a while and turned and winked: "Boss Fu, take this!"
He Hans still looks like a child, but when no one notices, he asks in a serious tone: "Are you sure?"
Li Du nodded: "50% sure!"
"So sure? Good ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~ Look at me." Hanston was excited.
It's already one o'clock in the afternoon. The two did not eat anything but drank some water. Of course, the other treasure pickers were the same. Everyone was tired and the competition was not so fierce.
The auctioneer takes a break and can even sleep for half an hour, so the old man is still energetic:
"It's still the starting price of one hundred dollars and one hundred dollars and one hundred dollars. Has anyone paid 150 dollars and 150 dollars ..."
Hans raised his hand, and the auctioneer pointed to him: "150 yuan, 150 yuan, 150 yuan, then 200 yuan, how about 200 yuan?"
No other bidders frowned or expressionless or whispered, no one bid.
杜 Li Du worked hard to keep his expression calm, but his heart was ups and downs, begging for help from the heavenly Buddha, **** God, and blessings from competitors.
But obviously someone noticed the big box and followed the price: "I!"
很好 "Very well, then 200 yuan and 200 yuan are now 200 yuan. I now say 250 yuan. How about 250 yuan? How about anyone with 250 yuan?"
"Follow me!" Hans said, shaking his head, then he shrugged, "There must be something to gain, so bet on this warehouse."
"Then 250 yuan, 250 yuan is now 250 yuan, and it will soon become 300 yuan. Who wants it?" The auctioneer asked.
No one bids again, just looking at what can be seen. Warehouse 205 is less valuable than the first three warehouses. As Hans said, buying this warehouse is a complete gamble.
Quickly asked a few times that no one was bidding. The auctioneer included it twice and then pointed to Hans: "Very good, warehouse 205 is yours!"
