122. There are big brothers everywhere
Sorry, I'm a little late to update, I'm addicted to typing, forgetting the passage of time, I hope I understand.****
In late May, Smith Warehouse Company started an external auction again.
Because of their sufficient understanding of the warehouse and treasure picking industry in Flagstaff City, Li Du and Hans did not go in advance. When they arrived, there were already about twenty people chatting at the warehouse entrance.
Seeing the two of them, the people nodded and greeted each other: "Hi, Boss Lee, I did a great job in Phoenix."
"What good things attracted you today?"
"Fake, you are here, then I'd better leave. I definitely can't get anything."
Li Du greeted these people and said casually: "There are not many people today."
Hans nodded and said, "Of course, there are only four warehouses and there is no news. Such warehouse auctions will not attract many people."
The two were chatting, and a treasure picker who had drunk wine with them came over and said, "Guys, let's have fun together later?"
Li Du remembered that the man was named Turis, so he asked, "Is there any reason to be so excited?"
"The sun is very bright today, isn't this a good reason?" Turis smiled.
He was about to agree, but Hans refused: "No today, man, tomorrow, today I have to deal with a few items, a sewing machine and a waterjet."
Turis asked in surprise: "Waterknife? You even got a watercraft in Phoenix? Isn't there just a bunch of sewing machines?"
"Those idiots only saw our sewing machines, they didn't see waterjets." Hans said proudly.
Suddenly, Turis became envious: "You two are really good. That's a water knife. It can be sold for more than 100,000 yuan, right?"
"I can't even talk about it if I'm less than 120,000," Hans said coolly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a young man's voice sounded next to him: "Ha, just a water knife, you're like you've picked up the saber used by Napoleon!"
Hearing this voice, Li Du looked at the side in surprise. A strong young man with hard facial lines was looking at them disdainfully.
Seeing this young man, Turis jumped and then shook his head and left here.
Hans touched his chin and said, "Little Rick? I wasn't dazzled, I actually saw you in Flagstaff City? Why, don't you like a big city that loves to spend time and money?"
Li Du also touched his chin. Looking at the reactions of Turis and Hans, he knew that this young man had a very unusual appearance.
He didn't know much about Turis, but he knew very well how Hans was. The young man just spoke up to mock him. If he hadn't been a person who could not be offended, he would have definitely fought back with even more unpleasant words.
The young Rick hummed and said, "Of course I have to come here, otherwise the flagpole city will become the world of you and this foreigner, right? You all forgot who is the treasure-picking king in the flagpole city, right?"
Hearing this, Li Du couldn't help laughing.
Little Rick immediately glared at him: "Hi, GF, why are you laughing at?"
Li Du waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, don't get me wrong. I'm not laughing at you. I'm reminded of a slang term in our hometown, called Chi Qian and Tobaduo, and the big brother is everywhere."
He said the latter in Chinese, and no one around him understood it.
But everyone is not stupid, and it is not a good thing to guess.
A treasure picker next to him pulled him and whispered: "Little Rick is the son of Dog Ear Rick. Don't mess with them. We just need to make money with peace of mind."
Li Du didn't know who Dog Ear Rick was, but he wasn't afraid no matter who it was. This little Rick obviously came to ask for trouble. He didn't cause trouble but wasn't afraid of trouble.
When Little Rick heard this Chinese sentence, his face darkened: "Hey, foreigner, don't you see that you can still speak dogs? Bark twice, bark twice."
"Your yells well." Li Du sneered, "Your dad called Dog Ears? Then are you called Dog Ears?"
This was a fierce response, and a whistle sounded from the side: "Cool, this guy should go to the talk show, he will be like Oprah..."
Little Rick turned his head angrily and shouted, "Shut up, you idiot!"
Li Du shook his head and left as he imitated Turis, and said, "Let's go, this guy is a lunatic, let him go crazy by himself."
He was really puzzled. His entourage didn't provoke this guy at all. Why did he catch them and bite them?
Later, Rick became even more angry and shouted: "Listen to you two, don't think that if you get a few warehouses that can be sold, you will become the treasure picking kings of Flagstaff City. This will always be the territory of our family!"
Li Du said depressedly: "The treasure-picking king in Flagstaff City? Is there such a name?"
Hans smiled and said, "It's really true. This is not an official title. This is a word that everyone will say in private. There is a treasure picking king in every place. Everyone wants to become the treasure picking king."
Li Du said: "Since you want to be king, you must be considered a hero at least. What places can these treasure-picking people in Flagstaff City be called heroes? Can you be called a hero by earning one million a year?"
This is his real idea. If he can be the "king" or "tycoon" of an industry, he can at least dominate the US economy, such as steel tycoon Carnegie, energy tycoon George Mitchell, etc.
What is this flagship city treasure picking king? Li Du thinks this is a spoof title.
Hans said: "This is not a spoof term, it is a respectful title given to a person by everyone in the industry."
"Yes, respectful title. When I was in elementary school, someone was respected as the tiger of Erligou Primary School. When I was in middle school, the school grass was called Daniel Wu of No. 4 Middle School. When I was in college, the top student in the class was called Einstein of Building 10." Li Du said with rolling his eyes.
Hans laughed.
Originally, Li Du came to participate in the auction with a relaxed mood, but the appearance of this little Rick ruined his mood and made him very upset.
The auction is about to begin, and Rick Jr. appears in front of the crowd, beside him is an acquaintance of Li Du and Hans, and there is Dog Tail Reginard.
Seeing Reginald who was chatting with Rick Jr., Hans suddenly realized: "Sheter, no wonder Rick Jr. appears. It must be the bastard who was dogtail who was sowed by it!"
Li Du asked, "Who is the origin of Little Rick?"
"A idiot, but his father is very powerful, Dog-Ear Joffrey Rick, with a wide connection, he can always get news that ordinary people can't get. He is the most powerful treasure picker in Flagstaff City in recent years. Everyone privately agrees that he is the local treasure picker."
Li Du said: "Then why have we never seen him?"
"He is a member of the 100,000 club, and now he mainly mixes with Phoenix and Las Vegas. Flagstaff City is too small and there is nothing good, so he doesn't like it here," Hans said.
Li Du suddenly realized that he and Hans had frequently won high-quality warehouses in the past few months. Reginald probably hated their achievements, so he ran to make trouble in front of Rick and his son, and then attracted the suppression of Rick and Jr.
