Chapter 54 54. Mosquito Legs Are Also Meat

Hearing what he said, the playboy Arcaro Benedetto laughed happily, and he said: "This is what I should do. It is only right and proper to pay back the debt. I will never let Andrew have the opportunity to cheat. "

Hans said: "Yes, buddy, I like you who can tell right from wrong, the news Andrew gave me is..."

Arcaro Benedetto immediately waved his hand: "You don't need to say it, Boss Fu, this is your business secret. I won't ask you to get it back because I want to know it. Don't get me wrong."

Hans nodded and said, "Of course I know, who in Flagstaff City doesn't know your loyalty? I just want you to help identify the authenticity of this news."

What he said was more technical, and he flattered Arcaro Benedetto calmly, and explained why he came up with the warehouse news just now.

Arcaro-Benedetto said: "I will be happy to help you identify it, but forget it. How true this news will be revealed after the auction. Now, don't think about work, eat a pause!"

After the two communicated, Li Du knew that this Yushanfang Chinese restaurant was very famous in Qigan City, and the locals thought their Chinese dishes were very authentic.

But he was very surprised. People in Flagstaff City have never been to China or eaten real Chinese food. Why do they think this Chinese restaurant is very authentic?

The reason is that the chef in this restaurant understands the taste of Americans very well. No matter what kind of food is served, it must be sour or sweet, and the taste must be weird...

Of course, this also has something to do with the dishes they order, such as barbecued pork in honey sauce, Kung Pao chicken, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, shrimp with cashew nuts, etc., all of which are added with sweet and sour and honey.

Finally, a tofu dish was served, and when Hans saw it, he shouted happily: "GOOD, mapo tofu!"

Very standard Chinese.

Li Du rubbed his forehead. In the small place of Qigan City, Mapo Tofu seems to have become a typical Chinese dish. He noticed it when he was in school, and foreign students would definitely order this dish when they went to eat Chinese food.

He ate two mouthfuls. It was more spicy but not tender enough. It was not as good as his mother's.

Arcaro-Benedetto has a strong ability to observe words and expressions, and he looked at him curling his lips and said, "What's the matter, Li, isn't this dish not cooked well?"

Li Du said: "Please let me show my clumsiness. Mapo tofu is the signature dish of our Chinese Sichuan cuisine. It requires a deep red color, a contrast of red, white and green. The shape of the tofu is not bad. , Tender, crisp, fragrant, fresh and other flavors, this is a good mapo tofu."

"But when you eat it, do you feel that this tofu is not tender enough at all, that is to say, the store doesn't use traditional water tofu, he made it rough."

Arcaro-Benedetto exclaimed: "My God, the Chinese are really good at this. They pay so much attention to a dish. Your ancestors must have enjoyed it."

Li Du smiled. This is really wrong. The Chinese nation has been the most hard-working and tolerant race since ancient times.

Although these Chinese dishes were not to his taste, he still had a good time eating them. After all, there are people treating guests, and free food is always better.

After lunch, the two parties parted ways. After getting into the car, Hans said, "How about it, isn't Playboy simple?"

Li Du nodded and said: "Of course, this can be seen from his achievements. How many members of the 100,000 Club are there in Flagstaff City? Four, five? He is one of them."

Hans said confidently: "It will soon become six or seven, and the two of us will definitely join in. Maybe this time the warehouse will make us a profit of 100,000!"

"What warehouse information did Andrew give?"

"A week later, a warehouse company in Jerome Town will hold an auction. There are a batch of old-fashioned clocks in it. Those things are very valuable."

Li Du thought that they were going to participate in the auction, but when Hans was wandering in the bar in the afternoon, he got the news that there would be an auction in a warehouse in Phoenix two days later.

They rushed over immediately, and this time they were going to auction four warehouses, but none of them contained valuable items.

Xiao Chong lingered inside for half an hour, but couldn't find any treasures worth more than ten thousand in one item.

However, this search of the warehouse allowed Li Du to try out the time limit for controlling the bug - 40 minutes. Now he can control the bug to fly outside the body for 40 minutes before getting exhausted.

The most valuable of the four warehouses is the last one, which contains a full set of furniture, washing machines, refrigerators, electric ovens, microwave ovens, TVs and so on.

This warehouse company is a relatively low-end one. The warehouse is dirty and the rent is cheap. Those who rent this kind of warehouse are poor people.

Those who came to participate in the auction were also the poor among the treasure hunters, and the treasure hunters with a little bit of fame would not participate in this kind of auction.

Li Du smiled wryly after knowing this: "Boss Fu, you really don't let a feather go."

Hans laughed and said, "I'm taking you to experience all kinds of warehouses, and I don't intend to make money from this kind of warehouses."

That being said, the money that should be earned still has to be earned. Li Du didn't make a move in the first three warehouses. When he got to the fourth warehouse, he nodded and said, "This can make some money."

Warehouses are worthless, and auctioneers are not interested in them. They make money by taking a percentage of the selling price. Warehouses cannot sell at high prices, so they can't make much money.

When the auction started for the fourth warehouse, the auctioneer said weakly, "This warehouse starts at 50 yuan, is there anyone willing to take it for 50 yuan?"

Someone raised his hand and said, "Yes."

"What about seventy-five yuan? Is there anyone willing to pay seventy-five yuan?"

Hans squeezed in and said, "Hurry up, two hundred yuan."

This price was relatively low, but it turned out to be a high price, and the treasure hunters shook their heads and gave up the offer.

But there are always people who have a certain vision: "There are many boxes of home appliances inside, maybe there are home appliances inside? Two hundred yuan, take a gamble!"

Hans said, "That's three hundred yuan."

"Three hundred and twenty-five yuan, followed."

"Four hundred yuan!" Hans quoted generously.

After the price came out, that person shook his head and left, and no one else was willing to bid.

The auctioneer finally regained some energy and said, "The first time for 400 yuan, the second time for 400 yuan, and the third time for 400 yuan! Deal buddy, this warehouse is yours now!"

After paying the money and getting the delivery note, the two began to clean up the warehouse.

Hans went in and opened the washing machine box, and there was a 90% new washing machine inside. There were two children hugging each other on it. He smiled and said, "Cool, Li, your country's brand."

This Haier front-loading automatic washing machine is worth some money. The new one costs 1,000 yuan, and the second-hand one costs 500 yuan, so this washing machine alone will earn back the investment.

Opening the refrigerator box again, another Haier appliance came out. Hans grinned from ear to ear. The refrigerator is also well preserved, and the price can be sold at a higher price. Six or seven hundred is not a big problem.
