Chapter 58 58. One Hundred Thousand Dollars

Li Du's heart skipped a beat, thinking that the other party had guessed his plan, but that was impossible. His idea came from a sudden inspiration. How could he guess the presidential umbrella?

So he showed a blank expression and asked, "What did you say?"

The president's umbrella smiled and said: "Hehe, it's nothing, I just think you are a cunning guy."

"Then the idea?" Hans asked.

The presidential umbrella nodded and said: "Yes, but you choose first, you take four, and the rest are mine."

Hans looked at Li Du, his reaction showed the status between the two.

Li Du said: "Okay, let's choose first. These clocks can be called real ones. Even if they are real fakes, they are worth at least several thousand yuan. The harvest will not be small."

Hans said, "Yes, maybe we're lucky enough to get both genuine ones?"

"Then may God bless you."

The President's Umbrella said this coldly, and then entered the warehouse with the clock and the box. He fiddled with it and signaled the two to go in and choose.

Although he always felt that something was wrong, he felt that this solution was quite reliable. Everyone gambled on their luck to see who was lucky.

It's a pity that Li Du cheated. He didn't choose by luck, and he wasn't a person who likes to gamble.

After releasing the worms, he carefully watched where the worms landed.

After the hotel auction, he discovered that Xiao Chong has a skill that he has never known, and that is the time to extract antiques. The older the antique, the more priority it will extract.

Living up to his expectations, the bug flew straight to the middle of the nine boxes, got into the box and lay down on the antique clock to suck the time.

Li Du quickly called it back, pointed to the middle box and said, "This one is the one to go."

Repeating the same trick, Xiao Chong flew to the leftmost box without hesitation this time.

When Xiao Chong got on the antique clock, he recalled Xiao Chong again and said, "There is also the box on the left."

After the worm was released later, the worm flew around the remaining boxes, obviously not as interested as the previous two times, it turned around, and then flew back to Li Du's shoulder.

In this way, Li Du was relieved, obviously the rest of the clocks were knockoffs, they were not antiques, and Xiao Chong was not even interested in absorbing their time.

Picking out two boxes at random, he said, "Just these four, I hope I can pick out something valuable."

Hans said, "Then how do we divide the remaining boxes and rawhide?"

Li Du said: "Take half of the boxes, raw cowhide - also take half."

He originally wanted to leave everything to the president as compensation for taking away the antique clock, but when he was about to say it, he suddenly thought of an old saying that if you have nothing to do, you can either rape or steal.

When the president's umbrella is appraised and found that his five clocks are counterfeit goods, then if he thinks about the fact that he gave up the raw cowhide, will there be any doubts about him?

In order to protect the secret, he decided to act according to the thinking of normal people, that is, to do business.

Taking away four bells, half a roll of heavy rawhide, and more than twenty boxes, they set off on their way home.

Li Du asked: "It's a bit late, why don't you stay here for one night?"

Hans shook his head and said, "Jerome has too many thieves and hooligans. If we let them know that we got the antique clock, they will probably trouble us."

"So arrogant?"

"The whole of Jerome is a slum, and the night here is dangerous!"

When they returned to Flagstaff City, it was already dark. When they returned home, they saw that the house was pitch black, only the dining room had a dim light.

Hans asked strangely, "Could it be that you didn't pay the electricity bill?"

Li Du joked, "Why don't you suspect that the circuit is broken?"

Hans said: "Obviously you don't know Hannah. She is a good housekeeper. She can repair the roof, connect the drains, and repair the electric circuit in the middle."

Ah Meow let out a slight roar towards the dining room, her eyes were green, as if she had discovered something.

Li Du listened carefully, and said in a low voice: "Damn it, there is a man's voice, so there must be some accident?"

Hans handed him a big wrench, and took an iron rod himself: "Sneak in through the back door, there is Meow, we can take care of them no problem!"

Li Du hesitated, "Will it be a little dangerous?"

"With Ah Meow here, our combat power has the upper hand."

"But Meow is still a childhood cat."

"If it is an adult tiger cat, then we still need to do it? It can solve the troubles inside by itself!"

While discussing in low voices, they groped in through the back door. Hans suddenly turned on the lights in the dining room, and then saw two faces of a man and a woman looking at him in horror.

The woman is Hannah, wearing a cool and sexy Hannah, and the man is Stephen Chandler, the mechanic who once helped them assemble Harley motorcycles. He is dressed normally, a long-sleeved T-shirt and jeans.

There are several exquisite dishes on the table in the restaurant, with a candle and a bottle of red wine in the middle. It is obvious that the young couple are having a candlelight dinner.

When the two sides met each other, they were subconsciously taken aback. Hans reacted quickly and shouted: "Hannah, what are you wearing? Damn it, if my parents are still alive, they will interrupt you when they see you dressed like this." Your leg!"

Hannah said in a panic, "Aren't you coming back tomorrow? Why did you come back early?"

Chandler tried to explain: "Boss Fu, don't get me wrong, we just had a meal and nothing else."

"If I don't come back, can you do something else?" Hans looked pissed off, "Schete, Li, I'll give you a piece of advice. After marriage, don't tell your wife the exact time you're going home. Take a surprise raid now and then, and you'll make big discoveries."

Li Du said angrily: "Fake, don't curse me!"

Taking advantage of no one's attention, Ah Miao quietly climbed up to the table, stretched out her paw to touch a piece of salmon, and got under the stool.

As long as there were no accidents, Li Du left with Meow, while Hans joined the candlelight dinner with a gloomy face, and the scene became a little awkward.

When he got home, Rose hadn't come back yet, so it seemed that he had some other tasks.

The refrigerator was full of meat and vegetables. Seeing that the salted peanuts he soaked were still there, Li Du cut some celery and put them in superheated water, then mixed them with the salted peanuts with sesame oil and chili oil.

This side dish is appetizing and healthy, and it's perfect for one person.

He had nothing to do at night, so he counted the money he earned.

Together with this time, he participated in eight storage auctions back and forth, and has earned nearly 90,000 US dollars. He paid taxes and treated Ah Miao's illness, and spent nearly 10,000 yuan, and he still has 80,000 US dollars in savings.

In terms of conversion, this is more than 500,000 RMB, which can buy a good building in his hometown county.

This does not include the money that antique clocks can make. According to Hans, an antique clock can sell for at least 10,000 yuan, that is to say, he can accumulate 100,000 dollars by selling the clock.
