Wednesday, around 9:40 a.m.
Xiao Ran took Elaine and drove to a cargo yard in the Port of Los Angeles.
Behind his SUV was the Chevrolet Saaban driven by Anthony and Sam.
They are here today to attend a container auction.
At this auction, a total of eleven containers were publicly auctioned.
Container auctions like this are held irregularly in various ports in the United States.
Containers stored in the port that have not been claimed for more than three months will be handed over by the port to the auction house for public auction.
Due to the special situation of the moment, the number of containers being auctioned is becoming more and more large.
Container auctions are also becoming more frequent, with one every three forks and five forks.
The reason for this is that more and more companies are failing.
These containers contained various goods originally ordered by different enterprises.
When these containers were shipped across the ocean to various ports in the United States, the companies that ordered them were closed, and no one claimed them.
There are also containers that some people take with the goods, and as a result, the containers have been shipped to the United States, but people cannot arrive because of the suspension of sailing, and they have to abandon these containers.
All these unclaimed containers will eventually end up at auction and be auctioned off publicly.
As for the container auction rules, they are basically the same as warehouse auctions, but you can pay by card.
Because these containers are larger, they tend to contain more and more valuable goods, and auction prices can rise.
Correspondingly, bidders invest more costs, often tens of thousands of dollars, and higher prices abound.
Once lost, the loss is also more ruthless.
Professional treasure hunters with poor eyesight and bad luck may break their bones or even go bankrupt if they lose several times in a row.
Because of this, professional treasure hunters who participate in container auctions have a little money in their pockets and sales channels.
Professional treasure hunters with average strength, as well as lively passers-by, rarely participate in container auctions.
After parking the car in the designated area, Xiao Ran took Elaine out of the car and walked to the temporary office of the auction house, ready to register.
Because they were carrying guns, Anthony and Sam could only stand on the periphery and were not allowed to enter the auction site.
However, they could also see Xiao Ran from a distance, which was enough to ensure his safety.
During the march, Xiao Ran was also conducting a live broadcast and interacting with the fans in the live broadcast room.
"Xiao Ran, if you pick up a big leak today, can you postpone the auction time in the live broadcast room so that the buddies can go fundraising?"
Chu Tianyang, who loves to eat soup peels, said.
"What big leak did you find?" How can it be so easy, you think that the United States is full of big leaks!
"Besides, today is a container auction, and there are more likely to be various goods in the container,"
Xiao Ran said with a smile.
The words fell, and the obsession picked up the stubble.
"The goods may also be leaky, what if it is a box full of high-end graphics cards? Definitely made a lot of money!
As they spoke, Xiao Ran had already arrived at the temporary office of the auction house.
There are many professional treasure hunters gathered here, groups of three or five gathered together to chat, and some auction house staff and so on.
Among these people, there are many familiar faces, as well as a few old friends.
Sylvia and Garcia, as well as Kevin and Jeremy, came to the container auction.
Xiao Ran's arrival immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone here knew him, and as soon as they saw him, they immediately whispered.
"Look! It's Sean, the lucky guy, I didn't expect him to come to the auction, and he didn't make enough money!
"Who says it isn't, through those previous big leaks, this guy made at least $60 million, or more!"
"If I had so much money, I would immediately retire and enjoy the sun and sand and hot beauties, enjoy life to the fullest, and the idiot would work!"
At the same time, these guys were all kinds of envy and jealousy, and their eyes were red.
Several of the guys looked at Xiao Ran's eyes and expressions, all of which were a little unnatural.
And Xiao Ran's eyes looking at them were even more hostile, and even a little murderous.
Fortunately, everyone wore sunglasses, but they avoided eye contact.
These guys were the same people who had previously infiltrated Xiao Ran's apartment and installed pinhole cameras and bugs in the apartment.
Some of them went to the apartment in person, others asked friends to pass, but they all left fingerprints on those surveillance devices.
After Anthony's anti-tracking, they quickly identified these guys hiding in the dark.
Before approaching, Xiao Ran asked Elaine to register, and he greeted several professional treasure hunters.
"Good morning, Sylvia, Garcia, I didn't expect you to come to this container auction, it seems that we are going to be opponents today
" "Good morning, Sean, it should be that we didn't expect it
" "You guy is so rich, you actually came to grab business with us poor ghosts, leave us a way to live!"
Sylvia said with a smile and came up to give Xiao Ran a hug.
Subsequently, Garcia and Kevin also came over one after another, said hello to Xiao Ran, and touched their elbows.
After registration, Elaine also walked over, stood beside Xiao Ran, and waved hello to everyone.
After a few small talks, Sylvia suddenly lowered her voice and said:
"Sean, I heard that after you left Malibu that day, you went directly to the Chinese Consulate General in
Los Angeles" "Are you afraid that the Los Angeles police or the FBI will make trouble?" And I also heard that you stayed there for a week before leaving
" "What happened to the top antique artifacts and works of art that you found that were priceless, have you dealt with them?"
With Sylvia's words, several people at the scene all looked at Xiao Ran, and everyone was full of curiosity.
Obviously, this is a question that everyone cares about and wants to know the answer.
"I'll go! Foreigners are also so gossipy!
In the live broadcast room, Killing said with a smile.
Xiao Ran shook his head and explained in a low voice:
"The few Chinese antique cultural relics found that day were stolen nearly fifty years ago, so I will rush to the Consulate General in Los Angeles as soon as possible
" "As for other things, I didn't think much about it at that time, those legends from the outside world were all groundless, unfounded, and the police did not trouble me" "I
lived in the Consulate General, first to identify those treasures, and then because my apartment was ransacked." , for the sake of safety, that's why he stayed at the Consulate General"
With these words, he directly diverted the topic.
The words did not fall, and there was already laughter in the live broadcast room.
"Xiao Ran, it's really a waste that this guy is not an actor, and he doesn't blush when he lies!"
"Don't say it, I believe it, when did the Los Angeles police become so good?"
While laughing, everyone also knew Xiao Ran's intentions.
Everyone gave a thumbs up, the struggle is experienced!
Looking at Sylvia again, their faces changed.
When they heard that Xiao Ran's apartment had been ransacked, they were all taken aback.
They instantly understood that among those who ransacked the apartment, there was probably a professional treasure hunter they knew.
After a pause, Jeremy suddenly whispered:
"I heard that Howard was arrested by the police yesterday and was shot."
Sean, did Howard ransack your apartment?
Xiao Ran did not answer directly, but said with a smile:
"Whether Howard ransacked my apartment, whether it was involved, I don't know
" "But my bodyguard found a lot of monitoring equipment in the apartment and handed it to the
police" "According to police feedback, there is a lot of fingerprint information on those monitoring devices, maybe there is Howard's fingerprint
" "Shhh!"
Sylvia and they all gasped, secretly terrified.
Looking at their surprised appearance, Xiao Ran's eyes flashed with pride.
This is exactly the result he wants, he wants to spread this matter through the mouths of Sylvia and others.
He wants to warn everyone that he is not easy to mess with, and that there are many ways to deal with those who have bad intentions.
Before Sylvia could react, he had already diverted the subject.
"Guys, are there any good things in these containers auctioned today? Reveal some news
" These professional treasure hunters looked at each other, and only then did Kevin say:
"It is said that one or two containers are from Saudi Arabia, which may belong to a
Saudi prince" "The Saudi prince was thrown into prison by the crown prince, and the container shipped to the United States in advance was not claimed
" "Many people who came here today came to the
prince's container" "The Saudi prince's container, It's kind of interesting to hear,"
Xiao Ran nodded gently, eager to try.
