Little Life on An American Ranch

Chapter 25: Auction (4)

  Chapter 25 Auction (4)

   Wow! Crash!

  The woman picked up a bunch of keys, untied a copper key from it, and held it in front of Jian Heng.

   "Okay, this key is yours. Check to see if the things in the room have been touched. If there is no problem, we will go to the next room," the woman said to Jian Heng.

Now this woman is a little unhappy, because after the two raw melon eggs failed, the auction in the warehouse has been a bit uneventful. The mediocrity means that there are fewer bidders, which means that her income is also less. She was a little dissatisfied.

At this time, Jian Heng was not interested in caring about the beauty of a woman's complexion. He reached out and took the key and acted it out: "No, I just want to buy a warehouse close to my original place, so that it will be easy to use in the future." Convenience!"

  The woman walked away without saying a word, she was not interested in what Jian Heng used it for, and when she heard Jian Heng said it was all right, she immediately prepared to go to the next room.

Holding the key at this moment, Jian Heng suddenly felt a little dazed in his heart. Originally, Jian Heng had considered many possibilities and countless countermeasures for this issue. Go hard for hundreds of rounds, and then grab the warehouse.

  But Ren Jianheng never imagined that the reality would hand over the warehouse to him in such a particularly bland way. All the previous assumptions and considerations were useless. After three or four rounds of simple bidding, Jian Heng got the key so easily.

The reserve price of 300 US dollars, when it reached 380, no one followed. The treasure hunters didn't like this warehouse very much. At the same time, because they dug a hole for two raw melon eggs with Jian Heng and Jim just now, everyone cooperated. It was pretty good, so seeing that Jian Heng wanted it, they let it go so easily.

And the faces of the two raw melon eggs are still blue. It’s not that they don’t want to buy them, but they became the target of public criticism after exerting too much force at the beginning. Now their pockets are empty, their hearts are more than enough, and they will not be able to afford it after three hundred and fifty. up.

Snapped!

  Seeing Jian Heng in a daze, Jim stretched out his hand to take the key, and then turned the big iron pliers and cut off the lock on the door with a click.

"If you don't want to see it, let me do it. Besides, don't you want to throw these things out? It's time to find someone! If it's not just the two of us, it will be difficult if there are any iron parts." Jim said while unscrewing He locked the lock and opened the shutter door with the key in his hand.

  The rolling shutter door, which hadn’t been touched for several months, was a bit jerky. It took Jim a little effort to lift it up, and then push it up hard.

  Jim said while pushing: "Anyone who wants to make some money can come over and help throw out the worthless things in the house. We need three people, and each will give fifty dollars. If the job is big, we can pay more."

  Jim’s voice immediately pulled back some people who were about to leave. Most of these people had no roots and roots to make a living in society, and some people were willing to do things that earned fifty dollars.

  Now Jian Heng's brains are a bit insufficient, because Jim really acted out the scene of stealing the show, and the words that he was going to say were completely lost by this guy, which made Jian Heng a little bit jumpy. I can't help but suspect that I am an actor and he is a director.

  Jian Hengxin said: You **** can change Lao Tzu's play at will!

  Wow!

  The rolling door was pushed to the top by Jim!

  As soon as the door opened, a special smell gushed out of the facade, which indicated that no one had come to clean the warehouse for a while.

   "Cough! Cough!"

  As soon as the door opened, Jim coughed twice and took a step back at the same time as he was overwhelmed by the smell pouring out of the warehouse. As soon as the air circulated inside and outside, the original dust in the house was carried up by the air and rushed to the door. Jim stood the closest, so he naturally shrank back.

There is an iron shelf on the left and right sides of the warehouse door, with bicycle parts of no use on it. There is a passage between the two iron shelves for one person to pass through. In this way, the space inside looks a bit cramped, as if There are many things.

   "Do you want a shelf?" Jim looked at Jian Heng and asked, and he still hasn't found the big Ben that is almost covered behind the shelf.

  Jian Heng has come to his senses: "I don't want anything on the shelf, just throw it away!".

   "There's a car in the house!"

  Among those who rolled up their sleeves and were about to pick up the job, someone immediately saw something covered under the curtain behind the shelf. It was easy to tell from the appearance that it was a car.

  This is a treasure hunter with sharp eyes and is particularly sensitive to these things. It is too easy to recognize a car under the curtain.

  As soon as they heard that there was a car, the people who were going to the next room couldn't help turning back, not only the treasure hunters and spectators, even the part-time auctioneer came back curiously. Everyone stood at the door and stretched their heads to look into the warehouse.

As long as a car can run, it means that Jian Heng has made a steady profit, not a small profit but a big profit at least several times. So far, even if the car can sell for a thousand dollars, Jian Heng belongs to the The person who earns the most.

"Don't worry, move these two racks out for me first!" Jim also saw the car at this time, although he didn't see the whole thing, but he saw that the tire pattern of the car was quite deep, so Jim knew that the car should be well maintained not bad.

  At this time, Jian Heng walked to the door: "I hired all of you, everyone, come together and remove these two things for me, let me see if the car inside is worth 2,000 yuan!".

   Now Jian Heng is not stingy, and directly hires all the people who rolled up their sleeves.

  Seven or eight people worked together, and in less than ten seconds, the two iron shelves placed at the door were removed from the warehouse and placed at the door beside them.

  Jim stood side by side with Jian Heng at the front of the big Benz covered with cloth.

   "You come to uncover!" Jim signaled Jian Heng to begin to uncover.

  Jian Heng smiled and said: "Okay, it seems like some kind of ceremony is going to be held, you lift that side and I lift this side, and the two of us will pull it apart together to finish!"

   As he said that, Jian Heng bent down pretending to be casual and pulled the corner of the curtain at his feet to his hands, and then motioned for Jim to pull the other end.

  Jim smiled and pulled up the other corner casually.

  The two of them lifted up the entire curtain!

   "Holy-Crap!"

   "Holy-Moly!"

   "what-the-heck!"

  All the treasure hunters saw clearly what was under the curtain, and immediately there was a burst of gasps and exclamations like thunder.

   "BENZ! BENZ!"

   "Not just a BENZ! What-fuk! It's a 770k!"

   Everyone suddenly felt that their outlook on life had been subverted! Not only was it subverted, but it was also smashed into pieces.

  Part of the crowd was yelling, while the other part was stunned, with a dumbfounded expression. Among them, the one with the most exaggerated expression was the woman. It was probably not a matter of laying eggs in her mouth. It seemed that she could even stuff a broiler chicken.

   Jian Heng continued to perform at this time: "What 77O? Isn't this a classic car? It's worth tens of thousands of dollars, right?"

   "Fool!"

   Immediately, someone in the crowd was dissatisfied. Looking at Jian Heng, he began to teach with red eyes: "This is BENZ770! An antique car! It was made in Germany during World War II, and it is not something ordinary people can buy.".

   "I'll give you 100,000 yuan to sell it or not!"

   "I offer two hundred thousand!"

  In the crowd, there are smart people who are ready to pick up Jian Heng's mistakes.

   "Can you afford two hundred thousand?"

   "I want you to manage!"

  The person who made the bid immediately replied.

   "Not for sale!"

  Even if Jian Heng is not a layout person, no matter how stupid the situation is now, he knows that things cannot be solved with 200,000 yuan.

After finishing speaking, I was about to lift the entire curtain, when I raised my hand, I found that Jim was taking out his mobile phone, and he was very anxious to take it out. Before landing, he grabbed the phone in his hand.

   "What are you doing with your mobile phone? Hurry up and pull the curtain away!" Jian Heng is eager to pull the curtain away now, because Jian Heng sprayed the ash on this thing, and no one cares about it.

  Jim plausibly said: "If you're lucky, I have to make some money too. Can't I make some money for news and information now?"

After speaking, it might be because the phone was connected, this guy ignored Jian Heng, and said directly: "Jason, this is Jim, my friend took pictures of the warehouse, and there is a German Mercedes-Benz 770 in the warehouse, which is well protected. I took a quick look and it doesn't look like a copy."

  As soon as Jim said this, a group of people standing outside the door immediately reacted, and one by one began to touch their mobile phones to make calls.

   "Hey, New York Times"

   "Hello, is the daily news?"

   Almost instantly, Jian Heng felt that all the big and small newspapers in New York, and even small newspapers selling lace news, had been mentioned by these people.

   This scene was something Jian Heng never expected at first! I didn't expect these people to react like this. The first thing that came to mind was not jealousy that I got a car, but rushing to make phone calls to earn information fees from the media.

  Jian Heng was very speechless. At first, he thought that if someone couldn't remember this, he had to remind him quietly. Who knew that these guys were not far behind in news information fees.

  Jim didn't help here, so Jian Heng had to pull down the curtain alone, then shook it twice, and folded the curtain and placed it in an inconspicuous corner.

   "Can I take a picture and tweet it?"

  Jian Heng had just finished doing this, and several people immediately raised their hands and asked.

   "It's okay, let's shoot!" Jian Heng said generously.

  Hearing that Jian Heng agreed to take a photo, a group of people first took photos of the car, and then evolved into taking a photo with the car. In the end, Jian Heng felt a bit like he was at a new car launch booth at a domestic auto show.
