Starting My Treasure Hunting In England

Chapter 298 Gold Rush in the Sand

"We met a rich man today!" After watching this man walk into the room, Pierce lowered his voice and patted Liang En's shoulder excitedly.

The reason why he can say this with confidence is because this South Asian man has a necklace of gold and gemstones hanging around his neck that can blind people's eyes.

As an antique dealer with a family background, Pierce could see that the large gold chain hanging around this man's neck and the gems inlaid on the chain were not only genuine, but also antiques with many years of history.

As we all know, although the overall economic situation in South Asia is average and there are many poor people, the rich are really rich.

“I have heard before that some rich people clean out all their old things when they move, so they just throw away the valuable things and let the treasure pickers make a lot of money. I didn’t expect to see such an example in the United States today. .”

"Thanks to you for asking more this time, otherwise we would definitely miss these good things. But how did you come up with the idea of ​​asking for these things today?"

"Actually, I originally wanted to get a batch of old computers for the aboriginal people to use. Mrs. Nell had previously said that the computers in the school over there were too old, and I hoped to find a batch of slightly newer computers. Liang En said while putting on the equipment.

"I think since I have invested a lot of money in the aborigines, it would be a good thing to give them something to connect with them. After all, no matter how old these computers are, they should not be the computers of ten years ago."

It was very simple for Liang En to make such an inference, because this place is a wealthy residential area in Silicon Valley where land is at a premium, so the probability that there is a pile of electronic waste in the garage is really low.

"This is the garage. I hope you can clean everything in it today." The South Asian man pressed a remote control he took out of his pocket, and the garage door opened.

"Sir, are you sure you don't want these things?" As soon as the garage door opened, Pierce walked in and looked at the outer packaging and asked in surprise. "This is the top-of-the-line Apple laptop that was released just two years ago."

"Yes, I'm sure." The South Asian tycoon seemed to appreciate the surprised expressions on other people's faces. "You must buy the latest electronic products. The ones from two years ago are already too outdated."

"Okay, I understand." Liang En took a deep breath to calm down, then nodded and said. "We'll empty this garage out before dark, and the reward is whatever's in this garage, right?"

The reason why he wanted to calm down was because the computer he used before was an ordinary computer he bought the year he was in college, and the price was probably only about 1/3 of the laptop here.

"Yes, that's it." After saying this, the man gave Liang En a copy of the contract he had just prepared, and then nodded. "By the way, during the cleaning process, you can only move around the garage and the door, and you can't go to other parts of the yard."

"Let's start work! There are about three hours until dark now. This garage is not big, so it should be cleaned up in about two hours." After the wealthy man left, Liang En snapped his fingers and told everyone to start work.

"This guy is definitely a die-hard Apple computer fan, and his brain is a little abnormal." Fan Meng said in a surprised tone shortly after starting to count. "Otherwise, there is no way to explain why I bought ten of these desktop computers without opening them."

"We ordinary people must not be able to figure out what rich people think, but from my perspective, I personally hope that there are more such rich people, the better." Liang En said, picking up a computer with a host in it. The box went outside.

"Look at this, a set of desktop computers worth more than 88,000 US dollars that was released more than a year ago." After everyone moved a lot of things, Pierce took out a metal box from behind the pile of things and the others whispered. shouted.

"Absolutely crazy. This kind of electronic product itself is a consumable. I don't see anything gold-plated or inlaid with gems. No matter how good the performance is, it won't be able to sell for ten times the price of other similar products."

After hearing Pierce tell the prices of the items in these metal boxes, Liang En felt that his spirit had been severely impacted again.

He had previously known that some businessmen dealing in luxury goods would put a gold case on the outside of those electronic products or encrust them with precious stones, and let the owners show off their wealth through this method.

But Liang En never expected that such a conventional desktop computer could be sold at the price of a luxury product. He felt that this could only be said to be the hobby and sentiment of the rich.

"How much do you think this thing is worth now?" Liang En asked Pierce after thinking about a bunch of things in his mind, because he really didn't know much about the situation of these electronic products.

"It's estimated to be around US$80,000." After thinking for a while and taking out his phone to look at it, Pierce made an estimate. "Although most second-hand electronic products are priced at a steep discount, this item has sentiment, so if you want to sell it, the price shouldn't be much discounted."

"This sounds great!" Liang En said excitedly. He came here to dispose of garbage today because he wanted to do something good, but he didn't expect to receive this huge windfall.

So from a certain perspective, this should be regarded as a way of showing that good people are rewarded.

"You said the garage is full of these things. Then where does the owner of this house put the car?" During a break at work, Jeanne asked curiously while wiping the sweat from her head.

"I think the original owner of this house was probably a big shot in Silicon Valley, and he used this house as a temporary resting place when he was at work." Liang En said after thinking for a moment.

At this time, a servant came over with a pot of water and four cups. It seemed that there were indeed monitors nearby, so the other party could deliver drinks at this time.

After chatting with these servants who were obviously hired locally, Liang En learned that this place was indeed owned by a Silicon Valley tycoon, but he died in a skiing accident a few months ago.

Since the number of heirs has even reached double digits, in order to facilitate the division of family property, the entire house was sold to the current owner from South Asia last month for cash.

This also explains why there are so many electronic products produced by Apple in the garage. For a wealthy IT practitioner, if you are an avid Apple fan, then buy yourself a warehouse of such products. It's also very reasonable.

The difficulty of cleaning this room is not very high. The real trouble is how to secure these things in the bed of the truck. After all, such electronic products are likely to be damaged if they vibrate violently.

"What is this?" Just as she was finishing her cleaning, Joan found an old-looking wooden box under a pile of messy items in the far corner of the room.

This wooden box looked like the most common box used to transport things in the past. Liang En had seen it in many places before, but it looked very eye-catching in this modern-style room filled with computers.
