Meow Ba

Chapter 391 The Little Prince Joins

However, running all the way to the station, Ron saw two sisters chatting happily with an aunt in her forties while waiting for the bus.

…………

Two days passed in a blink of an eye.

Ushering in a sunny morning with hot sun shining on the ground, the Newman Warehouse Auction was held as scheduled.

"Today we will definitely make a fortune."

Getting off the pickup truck, Catherine clenched her fists, Molly nodded aside, only the little African prince looked around the parking lot full of trucks with interest, and looked at the warehouse in front.

If you want to participate in the storage auction, you can't do it without a truck, and Catherine doesn't want to bother Papa Tom anymore, after all, Papa Tom's truck is used by herself.

So Catherine found her boyfriend Terry and asked him to rent a truck and do coolies by the way—but instead of renting a car, Terry bought a second-hand old Toyota pickup.

"Hey, little girl, don't take it for granted."

"Last time it was just your luck."

"The storage auction is not as simple as you think."

There was a rough voice, and Ron stood up from Catherine's arms, grabbed her by the shoulders, and looked behind.

A strong body was getting off the back of the pickup truck, which was several laps larger than the old pickup truck. Ron remembered seeing him at the last courier company's auction, when Papa Tom introduced him.

It seems that his name is Carter, and he is one of the leading treasure hunters in Los Angeles. However, when Papa Tom introduced him with a bit of disdain, he said that he was good at cutting beards.

"Meow~"

lucky?
Hehe, today we will have better luck!

Winking on Catherine's shoulder, Ron sneered, relying on Carter's incomprehension of meowing.

The three Catherines who heard the voice also turned their heads together. After seeing that it was Carter, Catherine said with a smile.

"It turned out to be Mr. Carter. Luck is also part of strength."

"And I've always had good luck."

"Boom~"

Ignoring Catherine's answer, Carter snorted and closed the car door, passed Catherine's trio, and strode into Newman Storage Company.

He saw that Catherine was really lucky last time. After all, except for the shelves, everything auctioned by the courier company was packed in cardboard boxes, and no one knew what was inside.

In the final analysis, the business of warehouse auctions depends on eyesight and experience in the end. Luck is unreliable.

It's a pity that Carter didn't know that Catherine had her own cheating device - before everyone else, Catherine already knew what was in the warehouse and had a general understanding of the value of these things.

…………

"Gentlemen, um, ladies, lean in."

"The auction of Newman's warehouse is about to start."

The auction time for this warehouse should be earlier. At about [-]:[-] in the morning, the auctioneer of Newman Warehouse stood on the auction stage. He coughed lightly into the microphone, attracting everyone's attention.

It's just that in the follow-up speech, he hesitated a little - the characteristics of the warehouse auction industry determine that this is a man's world, and suddenly two little girls came in, which made him almost unable to change his words.

Like the last courier company auction, there was also 1 minute to stand at the warehouse gate and look inside, and then the auction started.

And the words of these professional treasure hunters also made Catherine's trio nod continuously.

"I saw the wheels of the mountain bike, under the tarpaulin over there, it should be a four-wheeled mountain bike for one person."

"There should be two lathes under the tarpaulin over there. It looks like an old-fashioned lathe. I don't know if the motor is there..."

Ron nodded as well. These Taobao people were right. He had been in the warehouse two days ago. Under these tarpaulins, it was indeed what they said.

But if he didn't go in, Ron would be able to tell that it was a car just by looking outside the warehouse. He didn't know the make and model at all, so he couldn't estimate the price.

"Okay, okay, let's see it all."

"The auction starts now!"

The first warehouse didn't have any good goods, so it was sold directly at the reserve price.

Because there was a mountain bike in the second warehouse, the value was immediately much higher, and the auctioneer directly called out a reserve price of one thousand dollars.

But this did not scare the treasure hunters - as a famous American brand, Polaris is the world's largest manufacturer of mountain bikes.

It is mainly engaged in the design, research and development, manufacture and sales of snowmobiles, all-terrain vehicles (mountain bikes), road motorcycles and utility vehicles.

Its various mountain bikes adopt CVT continuously variable transmission technology, timely all-wheel drive, independent suspension for each wheel, and a maximum displacement of 850cc. Although the body weight is only a few hundred kilograms, the trailer loading capacity is as high as one Ton.It is definitely a master at dealing with complex road surfaces.

Although there are only four wheels on the mountain bike under the tarpaulin in the warehouse at the moment, the cheapest new model of Polaris is more than [-] US dollars, which is worth a gamble.

"Two thousand dollars."

Someone bids directly.

Ron looked along the voice, just in time to see Carter's smug expression, his mouth moved slightly, Ron's ears perked up, and he had already heard what Carter and others said.

"It's a Polaris Razor 1000 four-wheel drive version. The market price is [-] U.S. dollars. Even if it is [-]% new, the price is half of the price. Excluding the risk, [-] U.S. dollars is no problem."

"Two thousand dollars! Two thousand dollars!"

"Has anyone offered a higher price~"

"Two thousand and five!"

"Two thousand five, two thousand five, is there a higher one?!"

"..."

"Four thousand dollars!"

The price quickly doubled to $[-].

Such a high price made the rest of the auctioneers hesitate—they didn't have Carter's vision, they couldn't see the brand and model, they could only see that it was a four-wheeled mountain bike.

But there are good and bad mountain bikes. A new model of an ordinary brand of mountain bike costs only six to seven thousand dollars. Now it’s too risky to pay such a high price for only four wheels.

"Four thousand dollars, one time for four thousand dollars, two times for four thousand dollars, four thousand dollars..."

"Five thousand dollars!"

Just when Carter thought that he could get it for four thousand dollars, and that it would not be a problem to repair it and sell it for tens of thousands, there was a crisp voice with the raised white arm.

Under the eyes of everyone, Catherine smiled and quoted the price given by Ron-Carter's analysis was correct, it was indeed a Polaris Razor 1000 four-wheel drive version, and Ron had observed it closely, and there were long tires on the tires. Long lanugo, and many parts of the car even have a protective film, definitely more than [-]% new, at least [-]% new.

Even in the past two days, Ron has asked second-hand dealers online, and got the latest quotation for the same car that is probably new, at [-] US dollars.

That is to say, even if he took over the warehouse with an offer of [-] US dollars, Ron could still earn thousands of dollars after tidying it up.
