Chapter Ten Lost?
After seeing off the reluctant Joanna, Zhu Yu touched his lower back. This girl's enthusiasm was a bit overwhelming!
Because they wouldn't see her for a week, Joanna did nothing in the afternoon and took Zhu Yu to work as a cavalry in the container.
In Joanna's words, she would only feel relieved if she squeezed Zhu Yu dry.
So when Joanna left, Zhu Yu felt relieved.
The next day, he went to the Seven Axes Bar refreshed. When John saw Zhu Yu, he laughed exaggeratedly:
"I bet old Paul that you wouldn't get up before ten o'clock, but I didn't expect you to get up! You made me lose ten dollars!"
Zhu Yu smiled: "That's because you don't know me well enough!"
The two people laughed.
John took out a piece of paper and handed it to Zhu Yu:
"Here is the list and quantity of cargo yards that are preparing to auction containers today. You can go and take a look."
Zhu Yu took the piece of paper and said:
"Thank you!"
"Why are you so polite? This is an investment!"
Zhu Yu left the bar, bought a sandwich on the way, and went to Joanna's store to eat.
There are still eight containers to be auctioned here today.
In the past, Zhu Yu's idea was to start from the small yard as much as possible, so as not to cause competition and not cost too much money in the auction.
But judging from the last auction, those treasure hunters will never let go of any nearby auction.
So just go directly to the warehouse.
A small cargo yard has the convenience of a small cargo yard, and a large cargo yard has the advantages of a large cargo yard.
In places like this, the containers usually contain relatively valuable items.
Open the door, basically if you pick up the leaks, you can earn money that ordinary people can't earn in a month or two.
But the competition is also fierce. After all, many things are clearly visible when the container is opened, and there is no possibility of hiding them.
When he arrived at the goods yard, Zhu Yu found that some people were already waiting here.
Some people were eating burgers or sandwiches and had obviously arrived without breakfast.
Most of these people live in the city and rush to the port early to make a bet.
Madden, Diana, and Helen were all there, but Joey and Joey were not.
Some acquaintances whom I have met before, and some strangers.
There are many treasure hunters in New York Harbor, and many people rely on this for their livelihood.
Even though Madden has been hanging around here all year round, Diana cannot guarantee that she knows all the treasure hunters.
Eight containers have been placed in the middle of the goods yard. The auctioneer has not arrived yet, but the manager of the goods yard and several helping workers are already there.
Look at that manager, he doesn't look like Joanna.
Ma Deng strolled over and said hello to Zhu Yu:
"Hey, Zhu, you're here."
"Hello, Madden." Zhu Yu motioned to the manager and asked Madden, "Who is that?"
"Charles, the manager of this yard, manages this yard for Mr. Robert, don't you know?"
"I know now." Zhu Yu smiled, "I am a novice after all, and I am far behind you."
Everyone likes to hear good things, Madden said with a smile:
"You have a good vision and will become a dark horse in this industry!"
Zhu Yu smiled.
It turned out to be the manager of the goods yard, not Joanna’s father. And Joanna’s father’s name turned out to be Robert!
Thinking about this information, Zhu Yu slowly walked to the container and looked at it.
In the first container, there were seven or eight luggage bags.
The first time Zhu Yu saw the logo on the luggage bag, it turned out to be a traveler!
This is an old brand luggage bag from the United States. This bag is not cheap!
I’m afraid it’s not just ordinary people who can use this luggage bag!
Zhu Yu looked at it again and was happy. The luggage bag was full of sundries, clothes, books, and small electrical appliances. It was very messy.
It was difficult for Zhu Yu to value these things, and he didn't care much about them.
Zhu Yu was shocked when he saw the next container!
There are a lot of weapons in here!
There are old-fashioned shotguns, old-fashioned Maxim machine guns, old-fashioned military uniforms, etc. The shotgun is in the weapon box, the Maxim machine gun is covered with cloth, and there are some clothes racks hanging at the door, which are military uniforms.
However, upon closer inspection, I found that these guns were all imitations.
It turns out to be a prop!
Zhu Yu took note of the container and continued to look at it.
In the third container, there are some large toys.
Just as he was about to take a closer look, someone next to him spoke:
"You came over to film too? How about continuing to cooperate?"
Zhu Yu turned around and saw that it was Helen.
He shook his head:
"I have too few cards, so we should all do our own thing!"
Helen saw that Madden, Diana and others were strong and she could not compete.
There are also a few unfamiliar faces, all talking together, obviously they are in a group, so they want to cooperate with Zhu Yu.
But I didn't expect Zhu Yu to refuse.
She walked away with a bad expression.
This move made Zhu Yu unhappy.
He had given this woman a favor last time, but he didn't expect that today he would be embarrassed just because he refused to cooperate.
It seems that it is better not to have any contact with this woman.
Zhu Yu calmed down and prepared to take a closer look at the third container. He found that these toys were placed in the playground and were relatively large ones.
There seem to be two sets, but they are not complete.
The price was difficult to calculate, so Zhu Yu decided to give up.
In the fourth container, there are neat boxes.
Looking through it, there are suits, shirts and other work clothes inside.
The fifth container contains several boxes of hardware tools, drill bits, jacks, etc.
Zhu Yu closed his eyes and felt a little dizzy, so he stopped looking.
At this time, the auctioneer arrived with a sandwich in his hand. He swallowed the sandwich in twos and looked at the manager.
Charles nodded to him, and the auctioneer immediately raised his hands and clapped:
"The auction starts now, open the first container!"
As soon as the first container was opened, as expected, many people’s eyes immediately opened!
A traveler's duffel bag, these treasure hunters almost all know its value.
As soon as they thought about what was inside, many people began to get excited.
The auctioneer was also an expert. He knew what to do at a glance and said loudly:
"The starting price is one thousand U.S. dollars, and each increase will be no less than one hundred U.S. dollars. Let's begin!"
Then a hand was raised in front of him instantly!
The auctioneer's unique skills are at work again!
"One thousand one hundred dollars, one thousand two hundred dollars, one thousand three hundred dollars, one thousand five hundred dollars..."
The voice sounded like Mongolian humai, but the enunciation was extremely clear, and the numbers were reported out one by one without any fluctuation at all!
The price quickly soared to five thousand dollars!
But even so, prices are rising rapidly.
When Zhu Yu saw this posture, he didn't increase the price even once.
He currently has more than fifteen thousand US dollars on hand, which is probably not enough for a container!
Sure enough, after waiting for more than ten minutes, there were only three bidders left, and the auction price of the container had reached US$28,000!
Everyone guesses that there must be good things in such a good bag!
Otherwise, I will be sorry for this bag!
Zhu Yu heard these people say that these second-hand travel bags alone are worth five to six thousand US dollars!
Okay, Zhu Yu gives up!
The money is still too little!
