Chapter 608 607. Fearless (610)
For the first five warehouses, Li Du did not make a move. He gave Oli and others a chance. The third, fourth, fifth and third warehouses were successively taken down by treasure hunters from Flagstaff City.
At the sixth warehouse, Li Du participated in the quotation.
The auctioneer sat on a high shelf, looking down on them like a god.
His task is very simple. When he sees who bids, he points to it, shouts it out, and then asks everyone to make a targeted offer.
The starting price is one hundred yuan, and the first bidder just raises his hand.
The sixth warehouse is No. 22. Judging from the photos, there are two strip-shaped boxes inside. The boxes are very narrow and long, about three to four meters in length. The cross-section is square, and the length is about 20 centimeters.
In addition, there are some odds and ends for ships in the warehouse: cracked rudders, heavily rusted anchors, turbines, fishing platforms, non-slip shoes and long leather pants, etc.
Li Du went to the door to have a look, and he left quickly. When he saw the auctioneer raised his arm to signal that it was time to bid, he yelled, "Five hundred yuan!"
He raised prices quickly, sweeping away some unnecessary competition.
Someone shook his head and walked to the next warehouse. There was no need to stay here. There were several warehouses opened in the back, so they could go and have a look in advance.
"Six hundred yuan." Someone followed the price.
"Seven hundred yuan!"
"Eight hundred yuan!"
"A thousand dollars!"
The price increased very quickly, within a few breaths, it had already reached 1,000 yuan.
Li Du was quite surprised. The warehouse was not that valuable from the outside, and it would be a loss if it could be sold for 500 yuan, because all the marine tools he saw were broken.
He still wanted to make a bid, but Hans came over and shook his head, and said in a low voice, "Someone is watching you."
Li Du looked around, and soon found that several people were watching him. Most of these people participated in the bidding. Obviously, they were bidding after him.
The magician also noticed this, and he leaned over and said, "Hey, this warehouse is interesting? But it's not easy to get it. It's not easy for you to take pictures of the warehouse today. Someone is watching you."
Li Duman said indifferently: "Then let them watch."
Seeing this, Hans understood what he meant, and said loudly, "Two thousand yuan!"
"Damn it, two thousand yuan!" Someone murmured immediately, "What is in this warehouse? Can it be worth two thousand yuan? I bet whoever buys it will pay!"
"Idiot, that's the warehouse that Mysterious Boy is looking at. The warehouse he's looking at is definitely worth a lot, so it's right to keep up!"
"I think you are the one who is stupid. Be careful of falling into his trap. I have heard that this guy is very cunning. He has used price traps to trick many idiots!"
Li Du looked at the crowd and smiled. There were quite a few people with such thoughts, and the price of 2,000 yuan drove away another group.
It was the Tucson gang who followed behind him to quote the most vigorously. Someone behind the head of state shouted: "Two thousand and one hundred dollars."
Hans said, "Three thousand yuan!"
The head of state stroked his moustache and did not speak. He squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, as if he was thinking about something.
He was really thinking about it. Last time he participated in the auction in Tucson, he was beaten badly by Li Du. Originally, he bought a warehouse, and he could surely make money.
In the end, Li Du arranged for his subordinates to act in a play with him and deceived him, and the result was that the 300,000 US dollars he got flew away!
But he didn't dare to follow Li Du's bids all the time, because he suffered a loss from following the bids at the last auction. Li Du is very rich, and it is cruel to cheat people.
The auctioneer didn't give him time to think about it. This is Las Vegas, not Tucson, and he can't cover the sky with one hand. The auctioneer pointed to Li Du's side and said quickly: "Okay, okay, this guy offered three thousand three thousand Three thousand..."
"Three thousand and one hundred yuan!" The head of state nodded heavily, and the Tucson gang followed up the price again.
Hans looked at Li Du, Li Du nodded after a brief consideration, Hans shouted directly: "Four thousand!"
Seeing this scene, the scene became lively, hundreds of treasure hunters surrounded them, and they began to watch the excitement again:
"Hey, Arizona infighting, a bunch of crap!"
"Isn't this a good thing? Hope they spend all the money in their pockets!"
"Führer, don't be cowardly, keep doing it! I heard that last time you were scammed by the magical boy for 300,000 yuan!"
"Hacked 300,000 yuan? What's the matter, buddy, tell me?"
The head of state didn't follow blindly. He couldn't see the value of the warehouse. It would be enough to reach 4,000 yuan, and it wasn't worth taking the risk.
Others did not bid to compete, and Li Du got the warehouse for 4,000 yuan.
The magician asked curiously: "What did you see, are you willing to pay four thousand?"
What he asked was Li Du, who knew who was the leader of the team.
Li Du laughed and said, "First, it's something from old-school sailors. Maybe it's something left by a gold-digging sailor? Second, someone has been bidding behind me. I have to get rid of them as soon as possible."
The meaning of the second sentence is that he is not optimistic about this warehouse, but just wants to cheat his opponent with a high price, but this time he failed.
Two warehouses away, he quoted again, and this time the price was still in the range of 4,000 yuan.
The head of state silently stroked his mustache and nodded, and the people behind him shouted, "4100 yuan!"
Li Du raised his eyebrows, slapped the photocopied color page on the head of state's chest and said, "This warehouse is yours."
A treasure hunter from the Tucson Gang muttered, "Damn it, it looks like we've been ripped off by him again!"
The head of state stared at him with dark eyes, and the treasure hunter quickly shut up and ran away in despair.
In the next warehouse, Li Du still chose to make a quotation. He found that the treasure hunters are not easily frustrated and retreat, and they are willing to follow him to try to make a quotation.
The further he went, the more people followed him, and it was difficult for him to win the warehouse within 2,000 yuan. If he was really interested in a certain warehouse, he would often have to offer 5,000 yuan before the other party backed down.
For less than 5,000 yuan, treasure hunters are willing to take the risk of competing with him.
More than 5,000 yuan, most treasure hunters dare not take risks, after all, they are not very rich.
It is not easy for the treasure hunters in Flagstaff City to gain something. Everyone has noticed that some warehouses Li Du will whisper to them and arrange for them to take pictures.
In this case, someone also targeted Oli, Turis and the others and bid with them.
After more than a dozen warehouses were auctioned, this situation became more and more obvious. Ollie became depressed and said, "Damn it, I didn't expect that one day someone would bid with me, with a garbage man like me?"
Dickens said: "Who said it wasn't? But this feeling is really good. The initiative is in our hands. It's quite cool to say."
The others laughed, but Hans couldn't help but said to Li Du helplessly, "Obviously, it will be difficult for us to make money in the future, and more and more people are staring at us."
Li Du said: "I have other ways to make money, and even if they stare at us, I will still get valuable warehouses!"
