Chapter 1382 1382. Old Photos (15)
Li Du went to the warehouse first. In his opinion, the things in the office were of little value. Before the studio went bankrupt, the studio would definitely clean up and take away the valuable things.
The warehouse of the studio may also have been cleaned, but after all, it has been stored for a century and a half, and there are more or less valuable things hidden in it that ordinary people cannot find.
The studio has only undergone one relocation in a century and a half, so much of the warehouse remains intact.
The warehouse is located in the north of the insurance company building. It is less than 500 meters away. The warehouse is very old and has almost become a dilapidated building. It can be seen that it has been around for some time.
Li Du roughly scanned and found that there are a lot of warehouses, more than one hundred.
Lu Guan said: "The warehouses to which the studio belongs are twenty-four. This is their number. The other warehouses belong to other companies."
Perhaps it was because of the confusion in the ownership of the warehouse. Unlike the warehouse company, there is no walled barrier here, but an open management is adopted, which facilitates Li Du's entry.
He compared the warehouse distribution map given by Luguan, and found the warehouses to which the studio belonged, mainly small warehouses, and there were four medium-sized warehouses and two large warehouses.
The Space-Time Flying Insect first entered the large warehouse, which contained some desks, chairs and office equipment. The things were arranged in a mess, which gave him more confidence in the harvest.
Bankruptcy warehouse auctions are most afraid of encountering well-organized warehouses. This shows that people usually clean up properly and it is difficult to leave anything valuable.
But shelving the chaos does not necessarily mean that there are valuable things in it. Two space-time flying insects shuttle back and forth in it, one flying to the left and the other to the right, and occasionally cross-flying.
Then, after spending so much effort, Li Du found nothing!
"It's a waste of energy." Mr. Li shook his head again and again.
However, he didn't hold much hope for this auction. It's just that the vacation was a little boring, so he went out to hang out and find something to do for himself.
The second large warehouse is still very chaotic. Office supplies such as tables, chairs, and photo frames are still placed in it. It can be seen that the studio has eliminated a lot of office supplies in the past century and a half.
Old furniture is quite valuable. The retro style of furniture is popular in the United States now, but the furniture here is incomplete, and after taking it out, it needs to be overhauled, and its value has dropped sharply. Li Du doesn't want to spend so much effort to make so little money.
Li Du's lack of confidence in the medium-sized warehouse due to the failure of the large-scale warehouse. When the time-space flying insect went in and took a look, his confidence became even less.
Inside are some obsolete cameras and other equipment. Of course, all of them are broken, and the damage is so complete that they cannot be repaired.
Looking at these things inside, Li Du felt a headache for a while. Is this a studio warehouse or a garbage dump? Why are things so rotten inside?
Moreover, there is no time energy in these junk things. I don't know the reason. It stands to reason that these cameras were used every day in the past, so they should contain some time energy.
But there is nothing in it, and the space-time flying insects have no interest in it.
Li Du thought about it for a while, and it should be that the energy of time can only be preserved in artworks. Cameras and old tables and chairs are tools, and space-time flying insects look down on them.
He didn't know the real reason, so he could only guess for himself.
The medium-sized warehouse has some value, but Li Du probably won't be able to make money, because the door is not covered, and what's inside can be seen at a glance. When the time comes to bid fairly, the price will not be low, and the profit margin will not be large.
The space-time flying insects entered the small warehouse, and there were some shelves with numbers on them, and there were boxes of all sizes.
Seeing this, Li Du became even more depressed. These warehouses changed from the chaos of medium and large warehouses, and they were cleaned up in an orderly manner. As a poor ghost in the studio, he must have packed away valuables.
Through time and space flying insects, he went into the box and took a look. Although it was blocked by the box, everyone knew what was inside, because these were some film boxes.
Sure enough, the space-time flying insects entered the box and saw that there was a film inside.
There's some value in this warehouse, but it's also hard to make a profit, and it's filled with brand-new film and reels that would be of interest to traditional photographers.
But the box was well preserved, and everyone could judge its value, so it was still a fair bid, and Li Du had no chance of missing it.
He has a way to get these films, as long as the little flying insects absorb the time energy in the box and destroy them into tatters.
But this violates professional ethics, consumes energy, and most importantly still does not make much money, so Li Du is too lazy to work hard.
Entering a small warehouse again, the time-space flying insect was suddenly attracted by something, and quickly flew to the shelf in the corner.
Li Du regained his spirits, followed the little flying insect to look around, and saw several distinctive boxes.
These boxes are carved from a kind of purple-red wood, about the size of a "Bible", with various complicated patterns on the outside, which look quite beautiful.
The time-space flying insects were interested in these boxes. Li Du thought that there would be something hidden inside. When the time-space flying insects went in and took a look, it was still film!
But there are also a few photos with these films, very simple black and white old photos, which have turned yellow due to air oxidation.
The Space-Time Flying Insect has excellent eyesight. Its eyes scanned the photo, and Li Du saw a sentence on it: The treasure of the Kehaina Tribe and Chief Alisena.
He was taken aback, did he encounter a treasure again? I am about to change from a treasure hunter to a treasure hunter.
Treasure means money. Li Du pondered for a while. This time, he shouldn't have to go to places like the North Pole. Let's see if he can find something.
There are very few materials in the box, only films, old photos and half a newspaper, and no other information.
The newspaper introduced the Kehaina tribe, an Indian tribe deep in the Appalachian Mountains, who had a tradition of being buried with their chiefs.
After the death of each generation of chiefs, they will be buried with the jewelry and weapons they collected during their lifetime. In order to prevent the tomb from being robbed, each generation of chiefs will secretly find a place to build a tomb after taking office.
The location of their tombs is as hidden as possible. After they die, they will be buried in it by trusted cronies, and they will enter the underground world with jewelry.
This is a bit similar to the burial system of ancient Chinese emperors and nobles, but in the Kehaina tribe, the burials of each generation of chiefs are different, and they are very hidden and difficult to be found, so it is difficult to be robbed.
The custom was introduced in the newspapers, and there is no other information.
Seeing this, Li Du lost interest. He didn't want to be a tomb robber. That would be a shameful thing.
But when Little Flying Insect looked at the opposite side of the newspaper, his attention was attracted by what was introduced above: Tribal gold news from Kehaina!
