Treasure Hunt all over the World

"Go to his American Dream! Go to his New York! I won't serve you anymore!"

Standing on the Brooklyn Bridge, Ye Tian glanced at Manhattan not far away, cursed in anger and despair, and jumped towards the turbulent water.

Everything that happened to me in the past six months started to flash in my mind at this time.

Unemployment, bankruptcy, breakup, house confiscated by the wicked bank, panic every day, countless times of cold rejection in the job search process, until now, I am almost penniless and desperate!

This is half a year of darkness, full of frustration and pain, not even a trace of good times worth remembering, and not even the slightest happiness!

With only the last fifty dollars left, he will have to walk into the shelter tomorrow to register for unemployment benefits, or he will starve to death on the streets.

This is a way of life that I can't tolerate or accept at all. The little bit of self-respect I still have in my heart will never allow myself to live on charity!

The so-called American dream has been completely shattered, and everything that has been hard-earned has completely vanished!

Thinking of this, Ye Tian immediately showed a miserable smile on his face.

"Since the world has abandoned me, I can only abandon this world!"

It was getting closer and closer to the water surface, and it was about to be in close contact with it.

The expression of anger and despair has disappeared from Ye Tian's face. He is very calm now, his eyes are dead, there is no tragic and no fear!

At the last moment of falling into the East River, Ye Tian saw a white light streak across the sky from the corner of his eyes, coming straight at him, and disappeared into his body like lightning.

"What is this? How did it get into my body?"

But then he threw it all away.

"Let it go, love whoever!"

"Snapped!"

Ye Tian hit the water heavily, and the waves splashed everywhere.

everything is over!

...

"puff!"

A mouthful of water spurted out of the sky.

The next second, Ye Tianyouyou opened his eyes.

Maybe he is already in the underworld!

But then the voice in his ear made him realize that he was still in this world, still in damn New York!

"Wake up! This guy finally woke up, he really didn't drink enough water!"

English, with a strong Brooklyn street flavor.

Apparently he was rescued.

"He is so useless, he can't die! He can only live!"

Ye Tian grumbled with a wry smile, speaking in Chinese.

At this time, there was no excitement in his heart for the rest of his life, nor any gratitude to the rescuers, only endless disappointment!

He was rescued by two middle-aged black men who cleaned up the rubbish on the river.

Seeing Ye Tian jumping into the river, they immediately drove a garbage boat over, rescued him, and sent him to the river bank.

When his mind was a little clearer, Ye Tian immediately stood up and said to the two black people with a miserable smile:

"Thank you for your help, I'm all right now"

"Young man, I don't understand why you jumped into the river, but I know it's the dumbest choice!"

said the taller black man.

"Yes, no matter how difficult and desperate life is, it is happier than death!"

Another black man also opened his mouth to persuade, quite a bit like chicken soup for the soul.

"Thank you, may I leave?"

"Of course, you can leave anytime, but I don't want to see you jumping into the river again!"

"No! Since God won't let me die, then I will live and see what the future will be like"

Ye Tian squeezed out an ugly smile, bowed to the two black buddies, then turned and walked to the street not far away.

Eternal hardship is the only death!

After going through this, all other difficulties seem to be less terrifying and despairing than before, and the thick clouds in my heart have dissipated.

Breathing is much easier.

Ye Tian is indeed dead, ready to face life again.

Crossing the street, he threw the mobile phone that was soaked into waste into the trash can and continued to walk forward. It was not far from where he lived, and it took only ten minutes to walk.

It's time to pack your bags when you go back, and you'll be sleeping on the street in the future.

...

After walking for about ten minutes, it was very close to the residence.

Ye Tian was very depressed, thinking about what to do in the future while walking.

Wall Street will definitely not be able to go back, and the financial investment banking sector has completely closed the door to itself. It seems that you can only start from the bottom, doing those jobs that were once dismissed, courier, dock worker, salesperson, etc.

First of all, to ensure survival, and then to look forward to a turnaround in the future.

While thinking about it, a loud noise suddenly came from my ears.

Looking up, there were twenty or thirty people gathered at the door of the warehouse company ahead, joking and chatting.

Ye Tian is very familiar with this scene, and there is obviously a warehouse auction here today.

He also participated in college before, in order to find some bargains, but every time he came back disappointed, and what he bought was basically useless things or garbage.

Many of the people who gathered in front of them lived nearby and came to see if there was anything cheap to pick up. There were also many professional treasure hunters who were trying to make money through auctions of abandoned warehouses.

Seeing them, Ye Tian immediately remembered that he still had a warehouse here.

After the house was confiscated by the bank, some things that had nowhere to store were thrown here, and later they were sold by themselves to maintain their living.

The warehouse has paid half a year's rent, which will expire next month.

At present, it seems that it is impossible to renew the lease. If there is no accident, it will also be auctioned by the storage company.

But no matter who shoots it, it will be a loss-making business, and only garbage will be harvested.

Go to the warehouse and take a look. Maybe there are things that can be sold. You can take them to the second-hand store for some money.

Thinking of this, Ye Tian immediately touched the pocket of his jeans. The keys were still in the pocket, and there were only fifty dollars left.

"Steven, what's wrong with you?"

As soon as he walked to the door of the storage company, someone came up to say hello. Steven is Ye Tian's English name.

It's Jason, who lives in the same building, and is fairly familiar.

At this time, Ye Tian was soaked all over, his clothes were clinging to his body, he was very embarrassed, his face was full of depression, and there was an aura of a loser.

Fortunately, it is summer now, otherwise I would have frozen to death before starving to death!

"I fell into the water just now, that's why it looks like this"

Ye Tian replied with a wry smile, of course he couldn't say that he attempted suicide by jumping into the river.

"You're so unlucky! Why don't you go home immediately? You even came to the warehouse auction!"

"I'm not here for the auction, I have a warehouse here, drop in to get something"

"So that's the case"

"How about you? Are you here to scour for junk or to make a fortune?"

"I'm here to scour for second-hand goods. Of course, it would be better if I could make a little money!"

Jason replied with a smile, his eyes sparkling.

While speaking, the auctioneer came out and began to read the auction rules aloud.

"Good afternoon everyone, there are four warehouse auctions today, and they are only traded in cash. The cash in your pocket is the upper limit of the quotation. You can't go to the ATM or bank to withdraw money, you can't enter the warehouse, and you can't touch the items, understand?"

"clear!"

Everyone participating in the auction responded in unison.

"Everyone, please come in, the warehouse auction starts"

After speaking, the auctioneer led everyone to the building.

There are also two warehousing company staff and a woman who records auction prices. The other carried hydraulic pliers and was responsible for cutting locks to open the warehouse and maintaining order at the auction site.

The moment he turned his head, the auctioneer saw Ye Tian who was embarrassed.

Ye Tian didn't care about other people's eyes, and followed into the warehouse area.

...

The first auction was Warehouse 106, on the first floor, not far from the elevator.

Many auctioneers walked to the door of the warehouse and immediately blocked the aisle.

Ye Tian's warehouse was on the second floor. Although his clothes were half wet and half dry, it was a little inappropriate to squeeze through the crowd to go to the elevator, which would definitely attract complaints from everyone.

It's nothing to do anyway, so let's just watch the fun.

"Crack!"

Workers cut the padlock with hydraulic pliers and opened the abandoned warehouse.

"OK, you can visit, and repeat, do not enter the warehouse, do not touch items, a total of five minutes to visit, ten seconds per person, please don't stay at the door for a long time, understand?"

The auctioneer said loudly, then stepped back and stood by the door to supervise the crowd.

"yeah!"

Everyone responded, then stepped forward to check the items in the warehouse, and secretly appraised them.

From the method and equipment of the warehouse, it can be roughly seen that those are professional treasure hunters, and those who come to join in the fun and pick up cheap ones.

The treasure hunters are basically a group of two or three, with strong lights in their hands, like searchlights, they can almost shake the eyes of blind people!

They looked at it carefully, and discussed in a low voice together to make the most accurate estimate, and set a price ceiling based on the estimated selling price of the items in the warehouse.

For those items that cannot be seen, they will also make a rough prediction and evaluation based on the packaging, a little information revealed elsewhere, and the overall situation of the warehouse, and formulate a psychological price.

But under normal circumstances, they are based on the value of the items in sight. If they exceed the set price limit, they will immediately stop, and they are very professional.

Those who are ordinary Taobao people just look at the surface to see if there is anything they are interested in. They do not look carefully, and the valuation is not accurate. It is completely based on their preferences.

They don't have any professional equipment either. It's better to take a household flashlight.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Ye Tian smiled bitterly.

It won't be long before the door of your own warehouse must be the same scene!
