Chapter 245 244. The Top of the Mountain (2)

As the time spent together increased, Li Du's understanding of Luo Qun also increased.

Now he has changed his name to the policewoman as Luo Qun. Compared with the English name Rose, he thinks this Chinese name sounds better and is more elegant and moving.

But he was wondering, maybe he shouldn't change his mind, it's a waste to use the name Luo Qun on this girl!

When we first met, Luo Qun showed all kinds of glamorous and noble, and often had a pretty face with a cold and expressionless face. When Mr. Li saw her, it was like seeing a goddess of ice and snow.

But these performances are all her illusions. After getting acquainted with her, she began to show her crazy side. At best, she is as innocent as a child, at worst, she is a female snake spirit.

Especially after he gave Luo Qun a poster signed by Francis as a gift, the relationship between the two increased.

Li Du could only bear it. He found that Luo Qun was still acting like a cold goddess when he was at work, and only when he returned home would he show his snake side.

In this way, he understood that Luo Qun used to be pretending, to her colleagues and prisoners when she was at work, and to the people around her after work.

He knew that doing this was tiring, and it would easily lead to psychological problems after a long time, so when Luo Qun showed his true side, he kindly endured it.

Who made me a modest gentleman? Mr. Li comforted himself like this.

After the goods were packed, Hans sold the chandelier to the grocery store.

Kevin bid 20,000 yuan, and after Hans' unyielding bidding, the final transaction price was 24,000 yuan.

There is also a broken chandelier, and it is not as luxurious as this one, but Da'ao said that it can be used after repairing it.

So Li Du felt that people from second-hand auctions would be interested in it, so he packed up the chandelier and placed it in a conspicuous place, ready to carry out the sale he planned.

But the business did not open, and another warehouse business came to the door.

"This time the warehouse is still in the mining town of Jerome. We have been to the Red Rock Warehouse Company. They have six warehouses for sale this time. It is estimated that there will be some good goods." Hans said.

Li Du thought for a while and said, "Red Rock Warehouse Company? Where did we get the antique clock?"

"Yes, that's right there." Hans nodded.

Li Du exclaimed: "There is another warehouse up for auction so soon? Is it going to have a big liquidation and then close down?"

In fact, it has been a long time since they went to Jerome last time. It is now mid-July. They participated in the auction of the Red Rock Warehouse in March, and it has been four months.

A day later, they drove off and visited this town known as the 'Wickedest City in the West' again.

Knowing that they went to Jerome to participate in the warehouse auction, some treasure hunters in Flagstaff City followed them, wanting to follow them to pick up some meat to eat.

After driving to the town, Jerome in summer has a different style compared to the last spring, that is, it is hotter!

Jerome is a mining town, and there are many mines within its jurisdiction, so the surface environment has been severely damaged. There is not enough green grass and trees, only barren mountains and mountains, how can the temperature drop?

After getting out of the car, Li Du was forced back by a wave of heat.

Hans took out two bottles of cold beer from the small refrigerator, handed Godzilla a bottle, and he took a bottle himself, opened it, poured it into his stomach, and then got out of the car.

Jumping out of the car, he waved his arms and roared, "Sweet!"

Li Du called out in the car: "Where's my cold beer?"

Hans laughed strangely: "Only two bottles, I have a bottle of Godzilla and a bottle, haha, cool!"

Li Du opened the small refrigerator, and sure enough, it was empty.

But luckily, there were some ice cubes in it, he stuffed a bunch of them in his mouth, stuffed some more into the mouths of Ah Miao and Gan Crispy Noodles, and then quickly jumped out of the car.

This time they changed to a hotel. After entering, there was an elevator, very old in style, like the industrial elevators used in mines in the early last century.

The elevator was sweltering, Hans pressed the second floor, Li Du fanned it vigorously, and said to the meowing Ah Miao: "Be patient, bear it, baby, it's okay, the second floor will be there soon..."

After saying this, it took a minute for the elevator to open, that is to say, it took a full minute for the elevator to go from the first floor to the second floor!

As soon as he went out, a strong mountain wind came oncoming.

Although the wind was strong, Li Du still felt very hot, because the wind blowing was also hot.

"How did this damn ghost elevator arrive?" He couldn't help cursing.

Hans said: "Be careful, the elevator climbed two hundred meters just now, buddy, don't fall, we are now on the top of the mountain!"

The elevator opened, and they appeared in a small rough square. At the other end of the square was a simple building made of cement and wood, surrounded by cliffs.

Under the scorching sun, Li Du walked to the edge of the square to have a look. Sure enough, they were located on top of a mountain peak, with a winding winding road and endless bare rocks below.

"This elevator actually leads to the top of the mountain? It's so unique." Li Du exclaimed.

Hans said: "The total height of the elevator is 300 meters, and it can also lead to 100 meters underground. It used to be dedicated to the mine, but now the mine is abandoned, and it is dedicated to serving the hotel on the mountain."

Li Du asked with interest: "This building is a hotel, right? It must be the highest hotel in Arizona."

Hans shook his head and said, "No, it's not the highest altitude, but what does it matter? In Jerome in summer, you must live here, buddy, or you will die in the sun!"

Li Du said: "No way? There are no other hotels in the whole town? Isn't the mansion of the mining tycoon we went to last time not bad?"

Hans said helplessly: "It's spring, brother, of course it's no problem to live in it in spring. But with the temperature now, the house is a sauna."

"Can't you turn on the air conditioner?"

"With the air conditioner turned on, it's a sauna with blowing air." Hans said, "Besides, if the air conditioner blows too much, it's easy to go wrong in this kind of weather. It's better to use natural wind."

The hotel doesn't look like much from the outside, but the interior decoration is quite exquisite, and there are many shadow nets drawn around it. After entering the building, the temperature of the mountain wind blowing is very refreshing.

Hans went to check in for accommodation. The two rooms cost 400 yuan, which is no cheaper than lodging in Los Angeles.

However, considering that they live here in a hilltop apartment, the taste of which is by no means comparable to that of ordinary hotels in Los Angeles, so Li Du feels that the money spent is quite worth it.

A few more treasure hunters came from behind, and they all came up by elevator. No one was stupid enough to drive to the top of the mountain, otherwise it would be a problem how to drive down.

Li Du and Hans were drinking cold beer and chatting in the hall. The treasure hunters waved and said hello after seeing them:

"Hi, Boss Li, Boss Fu, good afternoon."

"Damn weather, I hope I can get something out of Red Rock, or I'm going broke."

"Fuck, I'm bankrupt now, Boss Li, buy us a glass of beer?"
