Treasure Hunt all over the World
Chapter 41 Community Auction
At 7:30 in the morning, Ye Tian and Jason left the rental car company and drove straight to Manhattan in their pickup truck.
"This car is awesome, not worse than the Raptor at all, I love it!"
Jason is still commenting while driving.
Old America's love for pickups is almost paranoid. Among the best-selling models in the United States, the first is a pickup, the second is a pickup, and the third is a pickup. The Ford F series has been the top-selling model for 30 consecutive years, and it has never wavered!
In the Midwest, half of the road runs are pickup trucks, which is always the first choice for people to buy a car, and Jason from Kentucky is no exception.
After commenting, Jason asked enthusiastically:
"Steven, should I buy a car? Warehouse treasure hunt is no good without a car! Not only do I have to run around, but also load goods"
Ye Tian nodded and replied:
"It's very inconvenient to not have a car. It's time to buy it. It's just a day or two, but I haven't decided whether to buy a van or a pickup truck."
"Of course it's a pickup. This is a car driven by men. It's strong, powerful, and sturdy!"
Jason immediately gave advice.
"I'm leaning more towards the van, it's New York, not the Wild West, pickup trucks are too ostentatious, and vans are better for concealment.
And I'm going to install two safes in the car to temporarily store valuable small antiques and works of art. The pickup truck can't meet this requirement, but the cargo is fine."
Ye Tian talked about his thoughts.
He plans to turn the car into a temporary warehouse, which is more convenient for treasure hunting, and can run multiple places in one day without being tied up by one harvest.
Jason thought for a while, and felt that what Ye Tian said made sense, then nodded and said:
"OK! You are the boss, you decide!"
...
It didn't take long for the two to arrive at Peter Cooper in Manhattan, driving into the stadium where the community auction was being held.
This is an open-air basketball court. It is located in a corner of the community. There are more than a dozen venues. The area is relatively large. Today, it was temporarily requisitioned and used as an auction venue.
Community auction is the unique community culture of Laomei.
Residents living in the same community, after negotiation, choose a day, usually on a summer weekend morning, to put their unused things on sale at the garage door.
The things auctioned are generally daily necessities, which are not worth much, but it is better to sell than to sit idle or throw away, so the price is very low.
There are also often good things to see here, and antiques and art are not uncommon.
Especially in a high-quality community like Peter Cooper, most of the residents are middle-class with a little background, there is no shortage of invisible millionaires, and there are young Wall Street talents with high incomes. There must be many good things.
Auctions are announced in advance, attracting people to hunt for treasures, and Americans are very happy to participate in community auctions, and many people are even addicted.
In addition to ordinary people, professional treasure hunters will not miss this auction. Every auction day, these communities will gather treasure hunters to find opportunities to make a fortune.
The reason why today's community auction is in the stadium is because this is Manhattan, where every inch of land is expensive, and it is impossible for every home to have a garage, so it is gathered together for the auction.
The auction has started, the scene is very lively, and the voices are full of people! Among them, there are many professional treasure hunters, and some are familiar faces.
After parking the car, Ye Tian and Jason quickly walked into the auction.
The appearance of Ye Tian immediately attracted the attention of some treasure hunters at the scene.
In the past two days, he has been a hot topic in the warehouse auction circle, especially those who participated in the auction of Smithsonian Warehousing Company, and he was even more impressed.
As soon as I walked into the stadium, before starting the treasure hunt, someone came up to say hello.
"Hey! Good morning, Steven, good morning! Jason"
He is a familiar face, and also the bidding opponent in the previous competition, Haiwen.
There are two or three treasure hunters around him that he has never seen before,
They were all looking at Ye Tian with curiosity and envy in their eyes.
"Good morning! Haven, I didn't expect to meet you here, it's a pleasure to meet you!"
Ye Tian turned his head to look, and immediately greeted Haiwen with a smile.
After chatting for a while, Haven asked enthusiastically:
"Steven, the two auction announcements Sotheby's released, the two-headed piano and a lot of Ferrari models, should all come from you, right?"
"Yes, I did send it to Sotheby's, and it came from two Smithsonian warehouses"
Ye Tian smiled and nodded in recognition.
It has been so thoroughly spread that there is no way to deny it.
If Sotheby's needs to verify the legal identity of the lot, it will inevitably contact the Smithsonian Storage Company for relevant information.
And when the Smithsonian Company learned the news, how could it possibly miss this great opportunity for publicity! The news quickly spread throughout the warehouse auction circle, leaving everyone stunned.
"Wow! You are super lucky!"
Hearing Ye Tian's affirmative reply, Hai Wen immediately let out a burst of admiration.
At this time, his already envious eyes were red, and his heart was riddled with holes, bleeding non-stop!
Millions of dollars! Just slid from the hand like this, who doesn't feel bad for it?
The same goes for the other treasure hunters, with envy, jealousy and hatred in their eyes!
After saying two more unhealthy polite remarks, Ye Tian said goodbye and left. He and Jason walked to the auction booth not far away, and started today's treasure hunt.
Seeing Ye Tian's leaving back, Haiwen couldn't hold back his emotions any longer, and began to scold in a low voice, even wishing to slap himself both in the face.
"Fake! I'm a fucking idiot! I missed so many treasures and let this kid get a lot of money! Damn it! Unforgivable!"
"Haven, forget it! This windfall is destined not to belong to you! I know the situation that day, even without this kid, you can't beat the two old foxes of White and William!"
Another treasure hunter persuaded.
Even so, his eyes were also full of envy and regret.
Why didn't you go to that auction? Maybe I have a chance to make a fortune too!
Suppressing the feelings of remorse and jealousy a little, Haven looked at Ye Tian's back and said fiercely:
"This kid's eyes are too sharp! It's only been a long time, and I've already found treasures several times. Let's go, follow up, and see what he buys today. We'll take action when we have a chance, maybe we can make a fortune!"
A few people next to him immediately shook their heads and directly rejected his proposal.
"Forget it, I don't know about Garcia and the others being trapped by this kid? One after another, it's become a joke in the warehouse auction circle. I don't want to experience the feeling of being humiliated!"
"This kid is too shrewd and cunning! It's hard to take advantage of it, let's just follow the plan, don't make extra troubles!"
Hearing the words of the two friends, Haven's face changed suddenly, and he instantly thought of what happened to Garcia and the others.
"I'm not a fool like Garcia and the others, I can't be fooled!"
Haiwen's heart resigned, but his mouth did not soften.
In a blink of an eye, he completely dispelled the idea of competing with others. No one wants to be regarded as an idiot by others, and he is no exception. It is not very honorable to be a laughing stock in the auction world!
At this time, a friend next to him pointed to the very lively auction hall and said:
"Don't bother with a rookie, maybe he's just lucky, let's go and start treasure hunting! Maybe you can find better treasures and make a lot of money!"
Afterwards, Haiwen and his friends walked into the auction hall and started treasure hunting with full of envy and jealousy. Everyone's face was full of ruthlessness!
Haiwen dispelled the idea of following Ye Tian, but others didn't necessarily think so.
Two treasure hunters were watching Ye Tian in the distance, and one of them also appeared at the Smithsonian Warehouse auction site.
Seeing that Ye Tian and Jason had started treasure hunting, they immediately followed.
"Jermaine, you must keep an eye on this Chinese boy, and we will take action when we see something good, maybe we can make a fortune today!"
"OK! Let's go make money!"
...
Ye Tian didn't realize at this time that he had been targeted and was quickly sweeping the stalls inside.
Because it is dealing with household idle items, there are not many things on the general booth, and it can basically be swept away at a glance.
Ye Tian will leave immediately as long as he passes by the booth and finds that there are no antiques and valuable artworks. As for the cheap second-hand goods, he doesn't need to look at them, so the speed is very fast.
This surprised Jason next to him, but he didn't say anything, just followed.
In a few minutes, Ye Tian had passed nearly ten stalls.
This made the two tails hanging behind him look a little dumbfounded.
"Fake! Is this here to hunt for treasure? Why does it look like he's here to go shopping? It's so fast!"
"Don't worry about him! I believe that this kid will never run here to hang out with nothing to eat. He must be here to hunt for treasure. Although he is very fast, he has not let go of every stall. He will take a look at it. What are you looking for!"
After exchanging two sentences, the two tails immediately followed firmly.
Soon, smiles appeared on their faces.
After sweeping to the twelfth booth, Ye Tian stopped and began to check the goods on the booth.
In his eyes under the sunglasses, there was already a flash of surprise and a bright and dazzling red light.
Obviously, there are antiques between one hundred and three hundred years old in front of him!
