Road to becoming the wealthiest: Starting From Treasure Hunting in the Cabinets Chapter 44 - 44 44 Humiliation
Chapter 44: Chapter 44: Humiliation Chapter 44: Chapter 44: Humiliation Sean knew the specifics, realized there was no need to worry, so he cald down, opened the container, and went in to pull off the car cover.
As the Aston Martin logo appeared, it shocked everyone present!
This was an Aston Martin! For the cheapest entry-level sports car, it would cost at least 100,000 to 200,000 US dollars, right?
The car looked relatively new, and although the tires had signs of use, the wear wasn’t severe.
“Sean, did you win this one too?”
Henry followed him in, saw the sports car and his eyes lit up.
“Yes.” Sean was checking the car’s condition while he spoke.
The sports car was in average condition, the key was on it, he sat in and turned it, but it wouldn’t start.
This was a two-door, two-seater hardtop sports car, it looked very attractive and caught the attention of everyone present.
When Sean got down, Henry imdiately opened the door, sat in, touched things and looked around. When he ca out, he said to Sean:
“Sean, how about you sell this car too?”
“You want to buy it?” Sean was sowhat surprised. A farm owner should be buying a high-horsepower tractor, right?
“Yes, I want to buy it,” Henry answered truthfully, “My son is turning eighteen soon and I want to give him a gift.
This sports car might need so repair, but it looks okay. Besides, I can’t afford a new one right now.”
“How much are you willing to pay?”
“If it were new, it’d cost around 150,000 dollars. But it needs fixing, and if the engine has issues, the repair cost would be high…”
“What do you offer?” Sean asked.
“I offer… 60,000 dollars.” Henry thought for a mont before stating his offer.
“No, at least 75,000 dollars.”
Although Sean didn’t know much about cars, he figured if the engine had a problem, it would be scrapped.
So, he tried to haggle for half the price.
“Deal!” Henry happily reached out his hand.
Again, he made a deal for less!
Sean knew this was the second ti, he just lacked experience!
But he thought, it wasn’t too bad – he still made over 50,000 dollars profit, what more could he ask for?
Henry paid the money cheerfully and called the workers that ca with him, they brought a big truck and loaded all the stuff away.
After that, Sean and Jason cleaned up the remaining garbage – thankfully, there wasn’t much to deal with, and they finished quickly.
Sean took out 500 dollars and handed it to Jason, “This is your reward for today.”
“So much?” Jason’s eyes lit up, “Boss, you’re so generous!”
Of course, he was generous. The wage-earning class in Arica now earns only eight hundred to a thousand dollars weekly.
Jason earned 500 dollars just by helping out for one morning – how could he not be happy?
“Be more diligent in the future, and I’ll be even more generous.” Sean promised, waved to him, then turned to leave.
Jason happily took the money, shouting at Sean’s back:
“Boss, when you can, I’ll invite you to our ho, and treat you to our special dishes!”
“Alright.” Sean waved goodbye, got into his pickup truck and left.
He bought a box of high-end cigars and went to Mr. John’s Seven Axes Pub.
Upon seeing Sean enter, his drinking buddies greeted him one by one. After responding to each of them, Sean went to the counter and pushed the box of cigars towards John.
“For ?” John was pleasantly surprised by the cigars, opened the box, took out one, sniffed it, and said blissfully:
“Mmm, it’s been a while since I’ve smoked such good cigars.”
Sean smiled and said, “If you run out, let know, and I’ll get you so more.”
John put away the cigars and said to Sean:
“You don’t need to do this. Every ti you bring out sothing good, I’ll take a cut.”
Sean shook his head and said:
“You’re right; one issue at a ti. If it weren’t for you, I might already be fish food in the sea.”
“I really like your Chinese mindset.” John laughed, “You’ve had so good luck lately. Have you considered buying a house?”
Sean shook his head:
“Not for now. Robert needs more money and I don’t have enough yet. I need to save up a little longer.”
Old John nodded and didn’t ask further what the matter was. He asked:
“Need any help?”
“No, I think at this rate, it won’t take too long for to save up enough.”
“That’s good. However, young people still need to relax appropriately. By the way, why haven’t I seen Joanna around lately?”
“Her parents are back, so they’ve been keeping a close eye on her.”
Old John thoughtfully nodded and then said:
“Sean, Joanna’s father is an extre right-winger and has a natural prejudice against Chinese people. So you have to be careful…”
As Sean listened, he paused, then said impatiently:
“If you knew all this, why didn’t you say sothing earlier? Why did you encourage to be with Joanna?”
Old John hinted with a smile:
“Joanna is a good girl, and you have nothing to lose by being with her. Besides, Joanna is Joanna, her father is her father; it’s not the sa!”
Sean gave a bitter smile. How could it be unrelated? It was impossible for Joanna to live independently, like a little girl, from her parents.
It seed that there were many difficulties to overco on the road to love!
Returning to his rental place after leaving the Seven Axes Pub, Sean saw a luxury car parked outside the yard.
He got out of his car, and before he could enter the door, a young man got out of the luxury car and walked towards Sean.
This was a white youth, wearing evidently expensive, high-end clothes, looking like a successful, elite young man.
The youth walked up to Sean and asked arrogantly:
“Are you Sean Knight?”
“That’s .” Sean imdiately recognized that this was the person who had called him in the morning, telling him to stay away from Joanna.
Had he even co to where he lived?
Sean’s expression darkened.
“You, a yellow-skinned monkey, want to be Joanna’s boyfriend? Stop daydreaming! This is impossible! Drop that unrealistic idea and get out of here or else…”
“Bang!”
Before he could finish his sentence, Sean punched him in the stomach!
“Ah—”
With a scream, the young man doubled over like a shrimp, clutching his stomach, his face flushed, and unable to speak!
Sean grabbed him by the collar with both hands, hoisting the young man up, and coldly said to his face:
“Whether or not I’m Joanna’s boyfriend is none of your business! I advise you not to bother again!
Also, I hate it when people call a yellow-skinned monkey! Got it, you white-skinned pig?”
Having said that, he threw the youth out, who rolled several tis on the ground before he struggled to get up.
“You’ll pay for this!” The youth, covering his bruised face, dropped a sentence before hurriedly getting into the car and speeding away.
Sean just entered the yard when his mobile phone rang. He picked up the call as he walked inside.
Joanna’s voice ca through:
“Sean, I scolded George, that bastard who called you earlier, and told him not to bother you again…”
“You provoked him, so he ca over to humiliate , but I fought him off and he ran away.”
“Well done!” Joanna seed to enjoy the chaos, “I’ve wanted to hit him for a long ti!”
Sean laughed.
Fortunately, the backyard is sturdy!
