Recently, the two of them had finally completed all the procedures at Harvard.
He had successfully transformed from a student into a member of society.
He was about to start his first storage auction as a treasure hunter.
" This time, we're going to an industrial zone. It's the largest manufacturing center on the East Coast. It includes clothes, car parts, large machinery and equipment, and so on..." Feng Zewei introduced the warehouse that would be auctioned tomorrow in the car.
You need to understand this information beforehand, or else it will greatly affect your judgment.
"Then it seems that there won't be many people participating in the auction with us today.”Chu Feng said casually.
"How did you know?" Feng Zewei asked curiously.
"Because this kind of heavy machinery is usually very risky. If it can be used, then we can make a lot of money. If it breaks down, then we can suffer heavy losses.”Chu Feng analyzed matter-of-factly.
"There are indeed very few people participating. There are only twelve storage units in this auction, and there are even fewer people who signed up.”Feng Zewei was already used to Chu Feng's erudition, so he continued.
"That's normal. Maybe when we officially auction it, the number of storage units will decrease.”
"Why?"
"There will be a period of publicity before the auction. After the owner of the warehouse sees the publicity, it is very likely that he will come over to pay the fee. In the end, the auction will definitely be canceled, especially for a warehouse that mainly consists of mechanical items.”
Ever since he obtained the snake head, this knowledge had been firmly imprinted in his mind.
The two of them arrived at their destination, Marstar, before dark.
After resting for a night, Chu Feng and the others arrived at the auction unit early the next morning. However, there were only a few people at the door.
"Are we in the right place?" Feng Zewei asked suspiciously.
Chu Feng glanced at the number plate at the door and said,""That should be right. Someone should have given up.”
After waiting for a while, an old man in a suit walked out of the warehouse management office.
"Thank you for attending this auction. I'm Jeff. Our rule is that all transactions are done in cash. Before you bid for him, you're only allowed to look at the door of the warehouse. You're not allowed to enter, and you're not allowed to touch him.”
'It seems that this old man named Jeff is a professional auctioneer,' Chu Feng analyzed in his heart.
"In addition, I'm very sorry, everyone. I have bad news. There are only three storage units up for auction today.”But Jeff didn't look apologetic.
After all, this was very common in the industry.
It was just as Chu Feng had expected.
“艹! "This is too ridiculous. I thought I could make a fortune, but now seven people are fighting for three storage units. Brother Feng, you have to work harder. I don't want to come here for nothing," Feng Zewei complained.
"Don't worry, as long as there's a profit, I'll definitely get it.”Chu Feng said confidently.
He followed the auctioneer through the office and arrived at the storage area behind.
He found the first storage unit to be auctioned, C5!
"This is the first storage unit of the day, and the third from the bottom. If you want to make money, you have to seize the opportunity.”the auctioneer said as he cut open the lock of the warehouse.
The warehouse rolled up.
Everyone immediately used all kinds of searchlights to shine inside, hoping to find some clues that others could not see.
Chu Feng and Feng Zewei also looked over immediately.
Gas welding equipment for oxygen and ethyne, steel, boards, tires…Only a part of the area was visible, and about half of the area was blocked by the board. Chu Feng moved left and right but could not see what was behind, so he could only look for clues from other aspects.
Soon, he set his eyes on something.
"I think these things add up to about 1200 dollars at most. It looks like a warehouse filled with waste.”Feng Zewei said after taking a glance.
Chu Feng shook his head and said,"Not only that, do you see the yellow wheels behind?"”
"I saw it. Is there any explanation for this? The tires were second-hand and would cost at most 15 dollars each.”Feng Zewei said as he watched.
"No, those are special tires for cranes. They are made of completely solid rubber, so there will be no air leakage. Even if they are second-hand, one of them will cost at least 200 dollars.”
"Damn, these five are worth 1000 knives? It's about the same as that heavy-duty gas welding machine?”Feng Zewei said doubtfully.
"It's about the same, and the risk is also lower. I don't know what's going on with the welding machine being covered with cloth. Although there's a high chance that there won't be any problems, judging from the rust on the gas tank at the back, it probably hasn't been a short time.”Chu Feng analyzed.
"2000 knives already?" Feng Zewei
"And do you see that board? It was called a diamond board, and it was an expensive renovation material. One piece cost at least 150 dollars, but it was more troublesome to transport it, so it could be sold nearby. Even if it cost 120 dollars per piece, four pieces would cost 480 dollars in total.”Chu Feng continued.
"In that case, including the other things, if we buy it for less than 1800 dollars, we can basically make a profit.”Feng Zewei calculated and said.
"I think we won't lose anything if we buy it for less than 5000 dollars.”Chu Feng said a number that made Feng Zewei's jaw drop.
"5000? Are you crazy?" Feng Zewei was shocked by the number that Chu Feng suddenly said.
Chu Feng immediately shifted his gaze to a fork in the corner.
"Do you see that fork?"
"I saw it a long time ago. It's a fork for a fork truck. A brand new one is estimated to be about 200 dollars. Even if it's sold in the second-hand market, it's estimated to be about 120 dollars.”Feng Zewei said indifferently.
" That's the special fork for the Lynx engineering vehicle. The Lynx engineering vehicle is known as the Swiss Army knife of the engineering equipment industry. As long as there's suitable equipment installed, it can do almost any job. A brand new one costs 40,000 dollars. I suspect that it's behind the diamond board.”Chu Feng analyzed.
"Even if there is, what if the car is broken? This is very common." Feng Zewei was a little suspicious.
"The possibility is not high. If it's broken, then the matching forks shouldn't be here. Moreover, look at the original owner of this warehouse. He covered the basically broken welding equipment with cloth.”Chu Feng gave his analysis.
"Alright, observation time is up. Let's auction this abandoned warehouse.”The auctioneer was very experienced. He didn't open all three storage units but chose to auction them one by one.
This way, he could ensure that each unit could be sold at a relatively high price.
If you think it's not bad, you can give me some flowers and evaluation votes!
