Chapter 6: A Poor Man's Glare
Translator: Vicky_ Editor: Vicky_
The auction for unit 207 pushed the event to its climax. This unit contained the very well-maintained box for the massage chair, giving off the impression that the original owner replaced it back in its package. 207 was the unit that everyone had e for.
The previous four storage units were each sold for a few hundred dollars, and this somewhat prevented Li Du from taking this auctioning business seriously. However, after the massage chair package was revealed, Li Du witnessed the intensity of this career.
"Two hundred! Two hundred, two hundred is the starting bid. Is there anyone willing to bid three hundred, three hundred dollars for the priceless treasures inside?"
In no time at all the price jumped by more than one thousand dollars.
"… One thousand five hundred dollars is the current bid! Is there anyone willing to bid one thousand six hundred? One thousand six hundred? Very good, this gentleman has placed a one thousand six hundred dollar bid. How about one thousand seven hundred, one thousand seven hundred dollars is the next bid."
It kept increasing.
"… Two thousand five hundred is the current price, anyone willing to bid two thousand six hundred? Very good, the bid is now two thousand six hundred dollars, now let me be a bit aggressive and ask for Two thousand eight hundred! Two thousand eight hundred…"
"Four thousand dollars!" shouted a wealthy looking African American. Li Du was shocked by the price. "There's someone who's willing to bid that high?"
Hans could only admire the wealth of the few still participating, "Of course! Didn't I already tell you? Another name for that Kassrow massage chair is the "Multipurpose Electric Space Capsule." A new one costs somewhere around twenty thousand dollars!"
In the end, unit 207 was won by the wealthy African American for the price of six thousand five hundred dollars. Seeing his smug look as he placed a lock on the door, Li Du only gave him a pitiful stare. He knew that in that box, there were just a bunch of finance books and magazines. Its owner probably thought that the box was quite spacious, so he used it for organizational purposes.
Unit 208, the next storage unit, was offered at fifty dollars because of all the trash inside.
Seeing this, Li Du raised his eyebrows at Hans. "Hey, Big Fox, how about we buy this storage unit?"
"What's inside?" Hans asked, somewhat surprised.
"See, that's a television cover, so there's probably a television under it. That alone is probably around fifty dollars
