Chapter 64 This spider is not bad!
Warehouses in cities or relatively close to urban areas are all indoor ones. They are built with several floors, one layer after another of small houses, and rolling shutter doors.
Auction Warehouse No. 1 was located near the inside. After the auctioneer arrived with the security guards, he explained the rules. These people urged the auctioneer to start quickly.
The auctioneer wasn't upset at all. He just smiled casually at these guys' jokes and motioned to the security guard to unlock the door.
The security guard cut the lock, raised the rolling shutter door, and then stood guard by the door.
People who came over immediately pushed forward, and the security guard shouted:
"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze!" the security guard shouted, "Whoever squeezes past the line will be disqualified!"
As soon as he said this, the people in front immediately stepped back, thus stabilizing the crowd.
Zhu Yu had already begun to look at the things inside.
There is something interesting about this warehouse.
There are large and small cardboard boxes placed against the walls on both sides, arranged neatly.
There was something covered with cloth in the middle of the warehouse, which looked like a shelf.
Zhu Yu glanced around and found that the box contained mostly books and personal items. As for what was covered with cloth, it was a desk.
It looks like it has some history, but it's hard to say whether it's worth the money.
"Okay, let's start the auction now. The starting bid is fifty US dollars, and each increase will be no less than ten US dollars..."
"Sixty!" The bearded man stretched out his hand.
Bai Pang raised his hand: "Seventy!"
Zhu Yu discovered a very interesting phenomenon.
Even if these people in the warehouse auction obviously want to take over the warehouse, they will not push the price very high all of a sudden like old Madden over there in the container.
Basically, it’s a step-by-step increase in price.
He also raised his hand:
"one hundred!"
When he shouted like this, he immediately attracted the attention of others.
But Zhu Yu doesn't care, they are both big and small, so we don't choose.
As long as you can get it within a suitable price range, you can make money.
Zhu Yu's price did not scare anyone else, and the price quickly rose to one hundred and seventy US dollars.
A beautiful woman in green, whom I met this morning, the price is one hundred and eighty.
Just as the bearded man was about to raise his hand, the fat and white young man raised his hand and reported one hundred and nine, and even glanced at the bearded man sideways.
Zhu Yu was happy, there was also overt and covert fighting here.
It seems that as long as there is a matter of interest, there will always be an enemy.
The price slowly rose to 550, and Zhu Yu stopped raising his hand.
He couldn't calculate the price of those old books and found them troublesome.
Finally, the container was taken over by Fatty Bai. The bearded man was so angry that the beautiful woman in green stopped bidding after her bid reached 600.
He doesn't argue or quarrel, and he doesn't talk to others, which is quite different.
Go to the second warehouse.
Opening it for inspection as usual, Zhu Yu saw that the same pile of feet couldn't fit inside.
Large and small cardboard boxes were piled up randomly. They were all open, and inside they could be seen old clothes, gadgets, old car parts, newspapers, magazines, etc., all scattered on the ground.
In the innermost part, there are two shelves with a height of one person covered with cloth. Looking through the celestial eye, there are two easels, but there are no paintings on them.
There were numerous things on the ground. The bearded man, the fat man in white and the beautiful woman in green all focused their attention on the two easels.
Is it worth the gamble to wear a cloth?
The auctioneer didn't give everyone much time to think, and said: "The auction starts now. The base price is twenty dollars. Each increase will be no less than five dollars. The auction starts now!"
"Twenty-five dollars!" Bai Pang offered.
He obviously didn't want to stop at just one warehouse.
It’s rare for a bearded man to be generous:
"Fifty dollars!"
The beauty in green keeps up:
"Sixty dollars!"
Zhu Yu continued:
"Seventy dollars!"
The bids were increased one by one, and when the auction price reached two hundred and twenty dollars, Zhu Yu gave up.
The beauty in green gave him a confused look, then quoted a price:
"Two hundred and thirty dollars!"
Bai Pang shook his head, today was over budget.
In the end, the bearded man and the beauty in green raised their bids several times, and the bearded man won with $480.
The third warehouse.
Zhu Yu was a little nervous.
If there is nothing in this warehouse, then this afternoon will be in vain.
Before the warehouse opened, Zhu Yu had already opened his celestial eye and started looking.
Compared with the warehouses we have seen before, this warehouse is more "exquisite".
There is a box on a table with several pairs of jeans inside.
There is a clothes rack against the wall with several sets of clothes hanging on it.
There is a chair next to the clothes rack, and a set of clothes is also placed on the chair.
Going inside, there is a metal box, which is somewhat similar to a safe. The door is open, but there seems to be nothing inside.
There is a small wooden box placed on top of the box, and a shoe box is placed on top of the wooden box. The lid of the box is open, and a pair of women's leather shoes are exposed.
Generally speaking, it feels like someone has lived here before, or that someone has been in and out.
But now these things are covered with dust, obviously they haven't been seen for a long time.
There is a blind box, Zhu Yu gets excited!
There are four boxes placed in the wooden box, two of which are empty and two of which are pairs of watches and Cartier's logo.
In the innermost part of the iron box, there is a black jewelry box, and inside is a spider the size of a baby's palm.
This spider is made of some kind of precious metal. It has a large piece of emerald on its back, its eyes are rubies, and there is a purple gem inlaid on the tip of each foot. It is also inlaid with a lot of diamonds!
This is an absolute treasure!
For this reason, Zhu Yu felt that this warehouse must be photographed.
But I guess there should be a lot of people competing. After all, this warehouse is obviously much higher quality than the previous two, and the chance of getting good stuff is also much higher.
The security guard cut open the warehouse. During the observation, the bearded man and the fat white eyes suddenly lit up!
The other treasure hunters nearby who had been busy getting excited also became excited.
This warehouse must be photographed!
The auctioneer obviously knew the situation, and one minute later, the auction started with a base price of 500!
In less than a minute, the price increased to over a thousand!
Zhu Yu remained calm until the price rose to one thousand eighty and when only a few big guys were left raising the price, he raised his hand:
"two thousand!"
At this moment, Fatty Bai was beaten back.
The bearded man did not give up and continued to follow:
"Two thousand one hundred!"
"Two thousand two!"
"Two thousand and five!" The beauty in green seemed to be determined to win, and raised the price all of a sudden. The bearded man had no choice but to withdraw.
Zhu Yu did not give up and spoke:
"Two thousand six hundred dollars!"
The beauty in green shook her head to give up.
Zhu Yu was a little confused. It was not like the beauty in green gave up because he had increased the price, but it seemed like she had helped scare the bearded man away.
He smiled at the girl and went to pay the money.
The warehouse was theirs, and Zhu Yu and Jason began to take inventory.
Everyone else also left. After all, it would be even more uncomfortable if others made money by picking up the slack.
Zhu Yu is also happy to be quiet, at least if he gets rich, more people will not know about it.
The jeans on the table were brand-name goods. Zhu Yu threw them to Jason:
"These jeans should be sold for one or two thousand. Ask your friend if he will accept them. If not, we will go to a clothing store in the city to sell them when we return."
"So high?" Jason didn't believe it, and then called.
Zhu Yu went to the iron box and put away the black jewelry box first.
Chapter completed!
