Chapter 338
Entering the attic, Li Du saw the glassware again. There was a wooden shelf against the wall, and there were sealed glass bottles on the shelf.
In addition to these things, there is a pile of rose petals on the floor of the attic, and there are two large barrels in the corner, which also contain rose petals.
However, the rose petals were all ruined, the ones on the floor were dried up, and the ones in the bucket looked rotten and gray-black in color.
The glass bottles on the shelf are filled with viscous liquid, and on the top shelf are a bunch of labels that read: Damascena Rose Single Essential Oil.
Li Du scratched his head. What kind of trouble is this? Could it be that what he entered was not a warehouse but a production workshop?
In the warehouse on the first floor are some used glassware, which are arranged in a disorderly manner, seeming worthless, and their identities cannot be seen.
But looking at the attic, it can be seen that this thing belongs to a production line. The glassware on the attic is arranged and connected in an orderly manner, and those below are spare or useless.
What are these utensils for? Li Du didn't understand at first, until he saw the label paper on the shelf and some promotional materials, posters and other things, he finally figured it out:
Glass vessels are used to extract rose essential oil, and those glass bottles on the shelf are filled with extracted rose essential oil!
He roughly took a look. There were twenty-four bottles of rose essential oil here, and each bottle was very small, only about 200 milliliters.
In this way, there are a total of 4,800 ml of rose essential oil.
However, the identity of the liquid inside cannot be determined without opening the bottle. This is just his guess, because the labels placed on the shelf are all introducing rose essential oil.
He didn't know about rose essential oil, so he checked the relevant information online.
The first message that popped up on the webpage was: The political situation in Bulgaria, Morocco, and Turkey is in turmoil, and there is a large shortage of high-quality rose essential oil, and the price has increased to US$500 per 10ml...
Seeing this message, Li Du swallowed subconsciously.
$500 for 10ml? How much is that 4800ml of rose essential oil? $240,000!
If the liquid in the bottle was the rose essential oil he guessed, it meant that the stuff in the attic was worth $240,000!
Well, while this is an offer for premium essential oils, even if the rose oil here is of mediocre quality, then discount the price in half—$120,000!
Swallowing, Li Du wrote down the warehouse, released the little flying insects again, and continued to look at it.
The remaining seven warehouses are about to be auctioned, but with the rose essential oil warehouse for comparison, the value of the items in the remaining warehouses is not great.
Li Du saw that he was not interested, so he took Xiao Fei Chong back and waved his hand: "Come on, let's go to the next warehouse company to have a look."
In one day, they transferred six warehouse companies and inspected forty or fifty warehouses. Li Du almost peed out of exhaustion.
Back at the hotel in the evening, the burly figure of the Iron Knight appeared in their field of vision, and Godzilla had arrived.
Not only Godzilla arrived, but also the two young masters, Ah Miao and Gan Gan Mian.
Li Du asked the front desk, and as soon as he opened the door of Godzilla's room, two figures flew into his arms one after another.
Ah Miao has become a big tiger cat. An adult long-tailed tiger cat can grow up to eight or nine kilograms, while Ah Miao usually eats too much and is lazy, weighing about ten kilograms and is very fat.
Ten kilograms doesn't seem like much, but it's actually quite scary for cats, especially the moment of bouncing and impact, which can cause a lot of impact.
Mr. Li was so exhausted that he was almost knocked down by Ah Miao's pounce. After finally standing still, he pounced on him again...
As a result, Mr. Li was pushed down in the corridor by pushing the gold mountain and overturning the jade pillar.
Ah Meow squatted on his chest, meowing and meowing non-stop, Baozi's face was bulging, and her small eyes were very unhappy, obviously dissatisfied with him for not being with her well in the past few days.
Ganchamian whined and was also dissatisfied. It lay beside Li Du, pinching his skirt with its front paws, and refused to let go no matter what.
Da Ao quickly helped Li Du up, and said, "Boss, are you alright?"
Li Du smiled wryly and said, "I was almost beaten to death by these little bitches, it's okay, let me go back and have a rest, maybe I have a little heatstroke."
Hans said: "You need to exercise more, why are you so prone to heatstroke?"
"Get out, go and prepare food and drink for me, I'm starving to death."
Godzilla nodded deeply, yes, he was starving to death.
The next day, they split into two groups. Hans took Da Ao to participate in the auction in Beverly Hills, while Li Du took Godzilla to check the profiles of the remaining warehouse companies.
He just walked around a warehouse company in the morning, when Hans called and said, "Damn it, these guys in Los Angeles are so rich, both warehouses were auctioned for more than 10,000 yuan."
Li Du said decisively: "Then don't interfere."
The things in those two warehouses may be worth 10,000 yuan, but they still have to be processed, and labor is required, so 10,000 yuan is definitely not profitable.
Realizing that there are many rich people in Los Angeles, Li Du watched the warehouse behind the investigation and became more careful.
There is a warehouse at the back with some leather, which has not been treated in the hot weather and has a sour smell, which can be smelled even outside.
He walked over holding his nose, Godzilla frowned and said, "It stinks."
Hearing this, Li Du's heart skipped a beat, feeling bad!
His minimum expectation for this auction was to get the rose essential oil warehouse, but he now realized that it would not be easy to win the warehouse.
Because the warehouse has a smell, Godzilla's words reminded him that they can smell the smell here, and the scent of the rose essential oil warehouse will also be smelled by people.
Some of the treasure hunters in Los Angeles are ruthless characters. After smelling the aroma of essential oils and adding those bottles and jars, many people may be able to guess the identity of the warehouse.
In this way, a sense of crisis emerged in his heart, and he began to think of ways to solve the crisis.
Glassware is deceptive, and the presence of rose oil cannot be inferred from them alone, it is the smell that matters.
Li Du rubbed his chin, he went to a supermarket to buy a water spray gun, and then bought a few bottles of disinfectant with an amazing smell.
Taking advantage of the darkness, he poured the disinfectant into the water gun, sneaked into the warehouse, and sprayed the disinfectant into the attic and into the warehouse on the ground floor through the water gun.
The warehouse uses rolling shutter doors, and there are gaps under the door and on both sides. If you are careful, disinfectant can be sprayed in.
After some operations, the warehouse smelled of disinfectant.
The next day, they set off first to the vicinity of Pershing Square, where a warehouse company will be the first to hold an auction.
Li Du came to check. There is a set of fire extinguishers in a warehouse here, including high-pressure spray guns and engines, which can be sold for a lot of money.
