America’s Treasure King - Chapter 107
The auction has begun, and the starting price has dropped to $50.
Of course, people who pick up treasures at this price are very welcome, and all of them raised their hands.
Houllier’s assistant made another mistake, and he raised the price to 300 yuan when he opened his mouth. The son of Ramos was so angry that he wanted to beat them up, but he was pulled away with great difficulty.
His father also vented his anger for his son and raised the price to 400 yuan.
Then Frank 450 yuan, Nelson 500 yuan, the price rose rapidly, and the auctioneer was very happy.
At $600, there is a sharp decrease in what you want.
This is also understandable. If you are not sure that there are good things in this warehouse, 600 yuan has already reached the profit and loss line agreed by treasure collectors, and exit is inevitable.
There are only three people still on the court, Li Xiaoshuai and Houllier are naturally there, and one is also New Jersey, but he is not well-known.
The auctioneer also carefully tested “Is there any $650?”
Frank, who got Li Xiaoshuai’s dark signal, directly shouted a high price of 800 US dollars, and also protested that what we have is money, who dares to bet with me all the time?
Familiar strangers withdrew, and Houllier, who seemed to be fine, added another $100 to the price, or $900.
Seeing that Houllier was chasing after him, Frank got the idea. He only added a small amount of 50 yuan, and then kept observing Houllier’s assistant with a smirk.
His posture and intentions are bad, and he is a sign of driving up the price.
It was half-truth and half-truth, and it really scared Holly into suspicion. He originally bought such a warehouse to explore the way, but he didn’t want to smash it in his hand. I hesitated at the beginning, and I was unwilling to add a hundred to a hundred when I bid.
Instead, with the tentative increase of 10 yuan and 20 yuan by the auctioneer, they responded one by one.
Competitive cementation.
When Houllier, who was already suspicious, saw that Frank had to wait in the last few seconds for every bid, his suspicion grew even stronger.
The warehouse auction is not without frame-ups. Houllier, who is old at this kind of thing, has seen many times. The more he sees Frank’s smirk, the more he suspects that Li Xiaoshuai will dig a hole for him.
$980, he was still holding on, and when the auctioneer called out a thousand dollar round, Hollier, the silver medal picker, withdrew.
In the fourth warehouse, the most valuable are two cases of California wine, and a 70% new lawn mower. Bidding starts at $100.
Houllier disdained such a low-value warehouse. In order to avoid suspicion, Li Xiaoshuai also instructed Frank to end the game for a few rounds. In the end, Nielsen won the warehouse at a cheaper price.
Here comes the fifth warehouse show, with a 1910 Ford T in it.
This car used to account for half of the world’s car production in 1921. It did not allow cars to enter the homes of ordinary people, making it a legend in the world’s automotive history.
The car doesn’t have a hard top, but instead uses a flip-up soft top. But the preservation is not perfect, the patent leather can be seen to be damaged with the naked eye, the leather cushion is also mottled and cracked, and other places that cannot be seen with the naked eye are even less suspicious.
Li Xiaoshuai had seen it with a perspective eye for a long time. The interior of the car was basically intact, but he was not sure if it could start. Li Xiaoshuai originally wanted to end up filming for a few rounds to try it out, but thinking that there was still a Houllier today, he simply stopped filming.
“Why not shoot, this is a high-value thing” Frank was still a little reluctant.
“What can’t be photographed, don’t you think that Houllier, the silver medal collector, is there?”
“Hmm,” Frank thought about this, and the reluctance in his heart dissipated naturally.
Li Xiaoshuai despised this defective classic car, but in the eyes of others, this car is a piece of fat, and it is a must-see!
Ramos and Nelson cooperated again, Houllier was also muttering to his assistant, and the others were also in groups of three or five, and it was estimated that they were also discussing the matter of joint stock raising.
Li Xiaoshuai pointed to this small group of people and said, look; everyone wants this car, the competition will be fierce.
As soon as the starting price came out, everyone rushed up like crazy. Coupled with the scourge of Houllier, the price rose rapidly, and it rose to $5,000 in a few rounds.
In the end, this classic car was won by Houllier for $13,000, but this price was a bit inflated in Li Xiaoshuai’s opinion.
This Ford T-shaped car is a classic car, but this kind of car has a lot of ownership in the United States and can’t sell for a high price. The price of 130 plus the cost of repairing the patent leather, the cost of this car is at least 15,000 US dollars, the profit is already very thin.
Behind it is a second-hand appliance warehouse, which is full of various household appliances, TV sets, old computers, and old stereos.
This warehouse was finally acquired by Ramos and his son, and the price was also very cheap.
The penultimate one, like Li Xiaoshuai’s warehouse, is a warehouse full of this kind of waste, and Houllier is interested again.
He excitedly joined the bidding process.
Originally, Li Xiaoshuai didn’t plan to shoot, but he saw that Houllier was so enthusiastic, so he went down to accompany her to finish a few shots~www.mtlnovel.com~ lest anyone doubt.
Acting is about acting!
Li Xiaoshuai and everyone competed together, starting from the starting price of 50 yuan, and chasing it up to 750 yuan all the way, “with hatred” withdrew, this price is naturally only “rich” silver medal picker Hollier can get it, and no one else can bear it.
In the last warehouse, there is nothing good in it, just scraps of copper and old wires, which were finally obtained by others.
After Houllier photographed the warehouse, he also said to Li Xiaoshuai, “I am also a lucky person. I am very optimistic about this warehouse.”
Li Xiaoshuai said good luck to you, but only two words popped out in his heart: “Haha!”
Others are talking about envy Houllier’s arrogance, saying that he is rich and powerful, and he can’t resist it.
Eight warehouses were auctioned, and Houllier won three. A Harley-Davidson motorcycle cost $5,500, a classic Ford car cost another $13,000, and in the end, it was an abandoned warehouse photographed by Li Xiaoshuai for $750.
A total of 19,250 US dollars was spent, which is a big deal in the treasure hunt. Compared with him, Li Xiaoshuai just spent US$1,000 to take a picture of a sundries warehouse, which is a drop in the bucket, not even a fraction.
Flamen also felt a little unhappy when he was in the limelight by Houllier.
Li Xiaoshuai said: “What do you do with so many warehouses? It’s not a skill to spend a lot of money, but it is the ability to spend a small amount of money to make a lot of money!”
“Hey, this is quite reasonable. Could it be that there are good things in the warehouse we photographed?”
Li Xiaoshuai said in a big way, believe me, it’s not that you don’t know, I am a person with great luck, and I let you down that time.
Bo Yang: “What are you waiting for, let’s do it.”
