"the American dream! New York!

Ye Tian stood on the Brooklyn Bridge, looked at Manhattan not far away, scolded angrily and desperately, and jumped into the slightly choppy water. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Everything that has happened to him in the past six months has begun to flash in his mind at this time.

Unemployment, bankruptcy, breakups, houses taken over by evil banks, panic every day, countless cold rejections of job hunting, until now almost penniless and desperate!

It's been a dark half year, full of frustration and pain, not even a trace of good times worth remembering, and no half of happiness!

With only the last fifty dollars left, tomorrow I will have to go to the aid station to register for unemployment benefits or starve to death on the streets.

This is a way of life that I can't tolerate and don't want to accept, and the little self-esteem that still exists in my heart will never allow myself to live by charity!

The so-called American dream has been completely shattered, and everything that has been won through hard work has completely disappeared!

Thinking of this, Ye Tian's face immediately showed a miserable smile.

"Since the world has abandoned me, then I can only abandon this world!"

As we get closer to the water, we are about to get up close and personal.

The expression of anger and despair had disappeared from Ye Tian's face, he was now very calm, his eyes were deadly silent, there was no tragedy, no fear!

At the last moment of falling into the East River, Ye Tian caught a glimpse of a white light in the sky out of the corner of his eye, coming straight towards him, and disappeared into his body like lightning.

"What is this, how did it get into my body?"

But then he left it all behind.

"Let it be, love whoever it is!"

"Smack!"

Ye Tian slammed into the water, and the waves splashed.

It's over!

......

"Poof!"

A mouthful of river water spewed out violently to the sky.

In the next second, Ye Tianyouyou opened his eyes.

Maybe you're in the Netherworld!

But then the voice in his ears made him realize that he was still in the world, still in damn New York!

"Wake up! This guy is finally awake, he really hasn't lost water!"

English, with a strong Brooklyn street flavor.

Apparently he was rescued.

"What a hell of a wreck, you can't die!

Ye Tian smiled bitterly and muttered, speaking in Chinese.

At this time, he did not have a trace of excitement in his heart for the rest of his life, nor did he have any gratitude to the rescuer, but only endless disappointment!

He was rescued by two middle-aged black men who cleaned up the garbage on the river.

Seeing Ye Tian jumping into the river, they immediately drove a garbage boat over, rescued him, and sent him to the riverbank.

With a slightly clearer mind, Ye Tian immediately stood up and said with a miserable smile to the two black men:

"Thank you for the rescue, I'm fine"

"Young man, I don't understand why you jumped into the river, but I know it's the stupidest choice!"

Said the taller black man.

"That's right, no matter how difficult and desperate life is, it is happier than death!"

Another black man also spoke to persuade him, which tasted like chicken soup for the soul.

"Thank you, can I leave?"

"Of course, you can leave at any time, but I don't want to see you jump into the river again!"

"No, since God won't let me die, then I'll live and see what the future holds."

Ye Tian squeezed out an ugly smile, bowed to the two black buddies, and then turned around and walked towards the street not far away.

The only death through the ages!

After experiencing this, all other difficulties seemed to be less terrible and less desperate than before, and the thick clouds in my heart dissipated a little, and my breathing was much easier.

Ye Tian is indeed dead and ready to face life again.

Across the street, he threw his soaked mobile phone into the trash can and continued walking, which was not far from his residence and only ten minutes away.

It's time to pack your bags when you go back, and you're going to be sleeping on the streets in the future.

......

After walking for about ten minutes, it was already close to the accommodation.

Ye Tian was very depressed, and as he walked, he was thinking about what to do in the future.

Wall Street will definitely not be able to go back, and the financial and investment banking sector has completely closed its doors to itself. It seems that you can only start from the bottom, doing those jobs that you once disdained, couriers, dock workers, salespeople, etc.

The first thing is to ensure survival, and then to hope for a turnaround in the future.

While I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard a commotion in my ears.

Looking up, there were twenty or thirty people gathered at the door of the storage company in front of me, laughing and chatting.

Ye Tian is very familiar with this scene, and there is obviously a warehouse auction here today.

He used to be involved in college in the past, looking for some bargains, but every time he was disappointed, and basically bought useless things or garbage.

Many of these people gathered in front of them live nearby to see if there are any cheap ones to pick up, and there are also many professional treasure diggers who are trying to make a profit by discarding the warehouse auction.

Seeing them, Ye Tian immediately remembered that he still had a warehouse here.

After the house was taken away by the bank, some things that had nowhere to be stored were thrown here, and later sold by themselves one after another to make ends meet.

The warehouse paid half a year's rent, which is due next month.

At present, it seems that it is impossible to renew the lease, and if nothing else, it will also be auctioned by the storage company.

But no matter who shoots it, it will be a loss-making business, and all that will be gained is garbage.

Let's go to the warehouse again, maybe there are still things that can be sold, and you can take them to the second-hand store for some money.

Thinking of this, Ye Tian immediately touched the pocket of his jeans, the key was still in his pocket, and there was only fifty dollars left.

"Steven, what's wrong with you?"

As soon as he walked to the door of the warehousing company, someone came up to say hello, Steven is Ye Tian's English name.

It's Jason who lives in the same building, and it's quite familiar.

At this time, Ye Tian was wet, his clothes were clinging to his body, he was very embarrassed, and his face was full of dejection, revealing a loser's atmosphere.

Fortunately, it's summer, otherwise I would have frozen to death if I didn't starve to death!

"I just fell into the water, that's why it's like this"

Ye Tian replied with a wry smile, of course he couldn't say that he had attempted suicide by jumping into the river.

"You're so unlucky! Why don't you go home right now?

"I'm not here for the auction, I have a warehouse here, drop by and get something"

"I see"

"What about you, are you here to buy thrift or to make a fortune?"

"I'm here to buy thrift goods, and if I can make a little money, of course it's even better!"

Jason replied with a smile, his eyes sparkling.

As he spoke, the auctioneer walked out and began to read out the auction rules aloud.

"Good afternoon everyone, there are four warehouse auctions today, only cash transactions, the cash in your pocket is the upper limit of the offer, you can't go to the ATM or the bank to withdraw money, you can't enter the warehouse, you can't touch the items, understand?"

"Understood!"

Everyone who participated in the auction responded in unison.

"Everyone, please come in, the warehouse auction begins"

After saying that, the auctioneer led everyone to the building.

In addition, there are two warehouse company staff members, and a woman is responsible for recording auction prices. The other is carrying hydraulic tongs, responsible for cutting locks and opening warehouses, as well as maintaining order at the auction site.

The moment he turned his head, the auctioneer saw the embarrassed Ye Tian, but he didn't care, there were everyone involved in the warehouse auction, even the homeless was not unusual.

Ye Tian didn't care about other people's eyes, and followed into the warehouse area.

......

The first auction is warehouse 106, which is on the ground floor, not far from the elevator.

A large number of auctioneers walked to the door of the warehouse and immediately blocked the aisle.

Ye Tian's warehouse is on the second floor, although the clothes on his body are already half wet and half dry, but squeezing through the crowd to go to the elevator is a little inappropriate, and it will definitely attract everyone to complain.

Anyway, it's nothing, so let's just follow and see the excitement.

"Click!"

Workers used hydraulic pliers to cut the padlock and open the abandoned warehouse.

"OK, you can visit, reiterate, no entry into the warehouse, no touching of items, a total of five minutes of visiting time, more than ten seconds per person, please don't stay at the door for a long time, understand?"

The auctioneer said loudly, then stepped back to the side of the door and supervised the crowd.

"Yay!"

Everyone responded, and then stepped forward to inspect the contents of the warehouse, and secretly estimated the value.

From the way and equipment of the warehouse, it can be roughly seen that those are professional treasure diggers, and those are running to join in the fun and pick up bargains.

The treasure diggers are basically two or three in a group, holding a strong light in their hands, like a searchlight, and they can almost dazzle people's eyes!

They look closely, discuss in low voices, make the most accurate estimates, and set an upper limit on the price quoted based on the estimated selling price of the items in the warehouse.

For those items that cannot be seen, they will also make a rough forecast and evaluation based on the packaging, a little information revealed in other places, and the overall situation of the warehouse, and formulate a psychological price.

But in general, they estimate the value of the items in their line of sight, and if they exceed the upper limit of the price set, they will immediately stop and behave very professionally.

Those ordinary Taobao people just look at whether there is anything they are interested in, they don't look carefully, and the valuation is not accurate, and they are completely based on their preferences.

They don't have any professional equipment, so it's good to get a home flashlight, and some don't even have a flashlight, just look at it.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Ye Tian smiled bitterly.

It won't be long before the door of my warehouse must be this one!
