From scrap mecha to science fiction paradise

Chapter 30 Auction Warehouse
"Only safes can reveal big surprises. I've opened three hundred thousand cash in them before."

Faced with Lin Yu's speechless complaints, Xu Xiaotu acted confidently.

"Ok."

Lin Yu shrugged slightly.

He could finally see that Xu Xiaotu was just here for fun, and wanted to open the treasure box to gain good fortune.

However, as a poor man, he is still relatively pragmatic. No matter how small a mosquito's legs are, they are still meat.

"one thousand!"

As the auctioneer started, Lin Yu directly joined the bidding and directly raised the price to one thousand yuan.

If there are valuable items in the warehouse, unless the cargo owner is really wealthy or has an accident, it is obviously impossible to let the port manager sell the items for a long time.

Therefore, most of the time the warehouse is filled with worthless junk.

Moreover, the auctioneer also needs to be responsible for cleaning up the garbage in these warehouses, and has to pay labor costs. Therefore, not every warehouse can be sold at a high price, and not every one will be bought. Most warehouses do not have a starting price. .

Lin Yu immediately raised the price to one thousand yuan, immediately attracting the attention of many people who wanted to pick it up at a low price.

"Hey, do you want to take pictures of this warehouse?"

Xu Xiaotu was a little surprised when he saw Lin Yu bidding, and said:
"Don't you want to read more? When you are new to the industry, it is best to buy less and read more. The price analysis of smart glasses can only be used as a limited reference."

“I felt like the stuff inside was worth something, so I gave it a try.”

Lin Yu said while raising his hand to bid.

"Oh."

Several thousand yuan was not a big deal of money in the eyes of Xu Xiaotu and other mercenaries who were engaged in desperate business, so she didn't give much advice after hearing what Lin Yu said.

"One thousand and five!"

"two thousand!"

"Two thousand! Is there more?"

"This gentleman offers two thousand one!"

"Three thousand and five! This gentleman bids three thousand and five!"

Soon, the bidding for this warehouse became intense, and it was finally won by Lin Yu at a price of 3,500 yuan.

Overall, this is not a particularly good price.

Judging from what is revealed, the estimated price is only around three to four thousand. We also need to consider possible discounts during the transaction, subsequent cleanup costs, etc. Moreover, everyone has different visions and different judgments on valuation.

It can be said that this is a gambling price, betting on whether any of the remaining items are valuable.

If it is valuable, you may make a small profit, but if it is not valuable, you will have to pay the cleaning fee in vain.

The reason why Lin Yu was willing to take the gamble was to look at the motors, cutting machines and the like. He felt that the items stored in this warehouse tended to be spare parts and equipment. He might be able to find something useful among the remaining items and repair the ones that were broken. They can all be sold for some money.

After paying the money, the two of them stayed and quickly counted the contents of the warehouse.

Various items that were originally blocked and overlapped were all opened. With smart glasses analysis, it was easy and quick for the two of them to identify them.

"Ah, they are all rags."

After cleaning up, Xu Xiaotu was very disappointed.

Those things that were blocked and stacked were basically worthless debris, with nothing useful. Even the relatively valuable cutting machine didn't respond when the power was turned on.

"It's normal. If it's not broken, it won't be left here. How can it be so easy to pick up big leaks?"

Lin Yu smiled flatly, used the screwdriver he found to disassemble the cutting machine and fiddled with it for a while, and soon got the cutting machine running again.

Immediately afterwards, he rummaged around again and found a robot toy from the warehouse. It was also unresponsive because it was an old thing, but it took on new life in his hands without any effort.

In the end, after some calculations, the valuable things were just around 4,000, plus such a robot toy.

But this robot toy does give a little surprise.

"Five thousand yuan! This robot toy is actually worth five thousand yuan!"

"Wow! We actually made 9,011 yuan. No, it was your first time shooting a warehouse and you made 9,011 yuan!"

As soon as the things were sold, Xu Xiaotu was even more excited than Lin Yu, who had known for a long time that he could at least make a small profit, jumping up and down with excitement.

"Not counting the auction costs and cleaning costs, it's not bad to earn five thousand."

Lin Yu couldn't laugh or cry.

Since they were new here, the two didn't know much about the various channels here. In the end, they recruited a treasure hunter who also took pictures of the nearby warehouse. After spending a tip of 200, they found the acquirer and the cleaner who cleaned up the remaining garbage.

Counting the auction money and these additional expenses, the actual profit is not even 5,000. "So happy, it seems that little brother has made a lot of money?"

After returning from selling the things, the two met the treasure hunter who was asked to help again.

He is a young man who is as skinny as a monkey and gives off a shrewd impression.

"It's not much, just a few thousand yuan. This girl is just having fun."

Lin Yu smiled.

"You are just silly and happy. This is called fully experiencing the joy of making money."

Xu Xiaotu retorted dissatisfiedly.

Next, after arranging for the cleaners to clean the warehouse on their behalf, the two of them and the thin young man who had also cleaned the warehouse continued to rush to the warehouse that was being auctioned.

During the chat on the way, the two of them realized that the nickname of this thin monkey young man was really thin monkey, at least that's what the other party called himself when they were chatting and exchanging names.

The other party didn't seem to have any intention of having a deep friendship. He was just doing a favor for the sake of money, and the small talk was just superficial.

Returning to the auction warehouse, the two quickly parted ways and started bidding.

Soon, the entire afternoon passed in the process of taking photos and cleaning the warehouse over and over again.

And Lin Yu gained quite a lot this afternoon. Either he didn't make a move, or he was absolutely sure when he made a move.

What he buys are basically those with various electrical appliances or electronic components. Since these things are likely to break if they are left idle for a long time, and if they break, they are just scraps. Therefore, the competition is usually not big, and he can basically buy them within the acceptable risk. .

Then it’s time to pick and repair, and even if you don’t go shopping for some second-hand parts, you can still sell them at a good price.

Although there is no huge amount of money, they can basically earn tens of thousands of yuan, and one of them even made thirty or forty thousand yuan.

By the end, he had a total of 110,000 yuan!
With some more money, he could almost build another Daybreak.

Of course, this is a joke.

There was some luck in being able to build Daybreak with 200,000 yuan.

Most of Daybreak's parts are the result of picking up and repairing parts by relying on one's own vision and skills. It is impossible to reproduce the original parts, especially the most core parts.

The Hercules G-1080 hydraulic transmission system and even the hydraulic oil inside are all military-grade stuff. Even if it is a junk product, you are lucky to encounter it, let alone pick it up at a low price.

The other two-phase battery packs, core power motors, etc. are not so easy to come across. Even if we give him enough funds now, it will be difficult to reproduce another Dawn without the corresponding channels.

"There are only three warehouses left today. Those of you who haven't harvested yet should seize the opportunity."

Seeing that it was getting dark, the auctioneer also seized the time and tried hard to cheer up the emotions of the many treasure hunters who were getting tired.

As another rolling shutter was pulled up, Lin Yu cast his gaze over.

"Damn, are you kidding us? Put this empty one up for auction?"

The treasure hunters finally got a little excited by the auctioneer's words, but when they saw the scene inside the warehouse, they suddenly started to curse in disappointment.

The warehouse was completely empty, with just a few items scattered around. It looked like unwanted garbage left behind after someone else had cleaned it up.

"How about it, Brother Lin, do we want to film this?"

Xu Xiaotu just looked at it briefly, and then excitedly set his eyes on Lin Yu. He had a posture that would definitely be worth taking pictures of, even in an empty warehouse, as long as Lin Yu spoke.

In one afternoon, Lin Yu had fully won her respect with his performance.

Never lose money!

It's so scary!
For her, who had always lost more than she won, and to be precise, rarely made any money, Lin Yu was like a god at this moment.

"There doesn't seem to be anything good, but no one probably wants it. It's not difficult to clean up. If it's not expensive, just buy it."

Lin Yu's eyes fell on a small pile of debris in the warehouse, his expression moved slightly, and then he quickly looked away.

There seemed to be a lot of laser heads in that pile of junk that looked like garbage.

It was well hidden, submerged in paper scraps and only the tip was exposed.

Since even the outline was not revealed, even the smart glasses could not analyze what it was.

But this cannot escape him, an all-around fourth-level mecha engineer with both experience and knowledge, and the ultimate garbage guy who has been hanging out in scrapyards for a long time and even built mechas with this.

Although it is unknown whether these laser heads are used in laser weapons or equipment such as laser cutting machines, the prices of these laser heads are not cheap, and it is not a problem to sell them for tens of thousands each.

"five hundred."

The auction started, and the treasure hunters didn't bid for a long time. Lin Yu waited for a moment and could only speak.

"I'll give you a thousand!"
