Chapter 20 20. Afternoon, Queen
"They might fight. Are we sure we're leaving now? This incident was caused by us." Li Du leaned on the car window and looked back.
Hans raised his eyebrows and said, "Then what? I've been waiting for this day for a long time. I mean, I would be very happy if they fight."
"Just happy? Wouldn't it be better for us to get involved? For example, let's take the opportunity to kick that mad cow."
Hearing this, Hans was taken aback for a moment, and then he was very happy: "Ha buddy, I like you."
Li Du said: "Thank you, but I like those treasures in the car more, what should I do?"
Hans said: "Dispose of the garbage first, then sell the groceries, take the drum set and piano back, and find an expert to see the situation and estimate the price."
He is responsible for all these, and Li Du only needs to be responsible for finding valuable warehouses.
The garbage from the two warehouses needs a processing fee of 180 yuan after being sent to the garbage disposal site. Hans gave 50 yuan to the old man at the gate of the garbage disposal site, so that their cars can be driven in without registration.
"This is bribery." Li Du said in surprise.
"No, to me it's called intelligence and connections, to him it's called making extra money."
After disposing of the garbage, they went to dispose of some valuable groceries, such as a large pile of National Geographic magazines, a good desk lamp, two air conditioner plug-in units with a little problem, and so on.
Hans was very familiar with Phoenix. After walking through two grocery stores, those messy things were exchanged for four hundred and fifty dollars.
There are also two boxes of "National Geographic Magazine", from two thousand years to the present.
Li Du asked, "How much are these worth?"
"Maybe if you meet a good person, you can sell them for fifty yuan. You see, they are in a mess. If they are connected together for more than ten years, they will be worth a lot."
Li Du said: "You are very lucky, a good guy has appeared, this is 16 yuan, and the magazine is mine."
"What?" Hans was confused.
"I bought it and went back to look at it, and I realized that I didn't know much about America."
"I know, but why 16?"
"You want to sell it for fifty yuan, but after some bargaining, its real price is forty yuan, and you get 40% of the profit of forty yuan, isn't it sixteen yuan?"
Hans laughed loudly: "Dude, you have the potential to be a profiteer, you are born for this job."
They drove fast all the way, and they drove back to Flagstaff City.
Hannah was about to go out with a new look. She smiled slightly when she saw the two of them, and said, "Are you back so soon?"
Hans proudly patted the carriage and said, "I made a lot of money with the fastest speed, of course I have to come back early, because I don't want my dear sister to worry."
Hannah smiled and said: "God bless, my brother Lengtouqing has finally matured a bit. But I didn't expect you to come back so early, so I didn't prepare any meals. You can order extra fast food. I have something to go out."
Hans said: "Go out? Why don't you rest at home after you have a vacation today? Don't go out, eat something and chat with Li. He always talks about you on the road. I found that there are still many things you don't know well. The place."
Li Du, who was doing rehabilitation training for the kitten Amiao, turned around and said, "Boss Fu, what did you say?"
"It's nothing, the weather is fine, my sister is going on a tryst."
"The date went well, Hannah."
Although this trip to Phoenix has yielded a lot, Li Du was also quite tired.
It was evening when they came back, so he lit a bonfire in the yard, sat in a rocking chair, drank hot coffee and watched the sunset, leisurely.
Ah Meow's eyes were fixed on the jumping flames, and his front paws were eager to try, but unfortunately, the back half of his body was still wrapped, so he couldn't jump up.
This made him very frustrated, and he could only meow and whimper.
Hans made some sausages, which looked like small rolling pins, and put them on the fire to roast on the fire. Soon the casings burst, and drops of fat fell on the fire, and the fragrance pervaded the air.
After roasting, he handed one to Li Du and bit into his mouth. The meat of the sausage was fragrant and firm, and the more he chewed, the more fragrant it became, making his and Ah Miao's mouths full of oil.
"taste good."
Hans laughed: "Of course it's good, this is Marquette sausage, one can be exchanged for a dinner."
After a night of rest, the next morning Li Du accompanied Ameowhans to fool around, and in the afternoon they went to evaluate the drum set and piano.
The car drove to a small wooden apartment building next to the downtown square of Flagstaff, Ah Miao sniffled, and suddenly whined and refused to get out of the car.
Li Du had no choice but to leave it in the car, while Hans rang the doorbell.
The door opened, and a graceful figure walked out.
From the side where Li Du was, a familiar S-shaped curve reappeared.
The blond hair was curled down on both sides of the cheeks, and the girl's facial features were exquisite and beautiful. When she saw Hans, she smiled and said, "Boss Fu, my father has prepared a shotgun and is waiting for you."
"Doctor Sophie?" Li Du asked in surprise.
The beautiful girl who appeared in front of him was the female doctor who rescued Ah Miao in the hospital.
Sophie turned her head to see him, and was also a little surprised: "Hey, sir, what a coincidence, is your tiger cat okay?"
Li Du pointed to the car: "It's right there, it refused to get off just now."
Sophie smiled slightly: "The tiger cat's sense of smell is super sensitive, maybe it smells me and thinks I'm going to operate on it again."
Li Du turned his head to look, Ah Miao was hiding in the passenger seat, peeking out with half of her face showing, her big green eyes were full of nervousness.
Hans clapped his hands and said, "Hey, hey, you two know each other? But Sophie, I'm the protagonist today. I need your help."
"Help my dad fix that ass with a gun?" Sophie teased.
"Damn it, don't talk about being young and frivolous. Today I want you to appraise a set of drums and a piano for us, and help me estimate the value."
Li Du was very surprised. He didn't expect that the female doctor Hans said was the number one person with musical attainments in Flagstaff City.
But it was right to think about it carefully. When he saw Dr. Sophie for the first time, he felt that she had an aura that was not in line with medicine. This aura was actually musical quality.
Opening the carriage, the two of them brought down the drum kit.
Sophie put on her gloves and stroked the drum for a while, then nodded and said, "DW Player A2 is a good set of drums. It uses a chain gear drive system and 5002 double pedals, which is an epoch-making achievement in the drum industry. .”
"This set of drums should have been born in the mid-1990s. It can be seen from the overall maple wood texture and seven layers of reinforcement. In addition, the drum shell is 14 inches, and the bearing edge has rose patterns. These all prove my guess. "
"How much is it worth?" Hans asked concerned.
Sophie didn't answer, she tapped with a drumstick, listened carefully and then smiled: "That's right, the drum sound that was popular in the mid-1990s has a deep, warm sound, and the impact is obvious. When I was a child, I heard my father play it .”
"How much did Mr. Martin pay for the drum set?"
"It was worth about 2,000 yuan at the time, right? If this set of drums is well preserved, it would be worth 10,000 yuan now." Sophie said.
Hans punched hard: "Yes!"
"But it's not perfectly preserved, right?" Li Du heard the female doctor's voice.
Sophie stroked the drum stand and said, "Yes, although the paint surface is brand new, but it was added later, which damaged its value, and it can probably be sold for six thousand to seven thousand yuan."
"Then let's take a look at this." Hans pulled off the jacket, revealing the wine-red grand piano.
Sophie glanced at it, and her delicate and pretty face was fascinated: "You actually found the queen?!"
