Chapter 41 Community Auction (Recommendation, Collection, Reward)

At half past seven in the morning, Ye Tian and Jason left the car rental company and drove straight to Manhattan in a pickup truck. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"This car is awesome, it's not worse than the Raptor, I love it!"

Jason was driving and commenting.

Lao Mei's love for pickup trucks is almost paranoid, and among the best-selling models in the United States, the first is a pickup, the second is a pickup, and the third is a pickup. The Ford F-Series has been the best-selling model for 30 consecutive years, and it has never wavered!

In the Midwest, half of the road is a pickup truck, which is always the first choice for people to buy a car, and Jason from Kentucky is no exception.

After commenting, Jason asked with interest:

"Steven, shouldn't you buy a car?

Ye Tian nodded in response:

"It's very inconvenient to not have a car, I really should buy it, just a day or two, but I haven't decided whether to buy a van or a pickup"

"Of course it's a pickup, this is a car driven by a man, strong, powerful, and strong!"

Jason immediately gave advice.

"I'm more inclined to vans, this is New York, not the Wild West, it's too ostentatious to drive a pickup truck, and the van is more hidden.

And I'm going to put two safes in the car to temporarily store valuable small antiques and works of art, and the pickup truck can't meet this requirement, but the van is fine."

Ye Tian talked about his thoughts.

He plans to turn his car into a temporary warehouse, which will make it easier to hunt for treasures, so that he can run multiple places in a day without being tied up by a single harvest.

Jason thought about it, and felt that what Ye Tian said made sense, and then nodded and said:

"OK! You're the boss, you decide!"

......

It didn't take long for the two to arrive in Peter Cooper, Manhattan, and drive into the stadium where the community auction was held.

This is an open-air basketball court, located in a corner of the community, with more than a dozen fields, the area is relatively large, and today it was temporarily requisitioned and used as an auction venue.

Community auctions are a unique community culture in Laomei.

Residents living in the same neighborhood negotiate a day to put their unused things in front of the garage for sale, usually on the morning of summer weekends.

The things that are auctioned are generally daily necessities and are not worth much, but it is better to sell them than to idle them or throw them away, so the price is very low.

There are also some good things that often appear here, and antiques and works of art are not uncommon.

Especially in a high-quality community like Peter Cooper, where most of the residents are middle-class people with a bit of family background, there is no shortage of hidden riches, and there are also well-paid young Wall Street talents, and there are definitely a lot of good things.

Announcements are made in advance to attract people to treasure hunts, and Americans are very happy to participate in community auctions, and many are even addicted to them.

In addition to ordinary people, professional treasure hunters do not miss this auction, and on auction days, these communities gather treasure hunters to find opportunities to make a fortune.

The reason why today's community auctions are in the stadium is because this is Manhattan, where every inch of land is expensive, and it is impossible for every house to have a garage, so they are all put together for auctions.

The auction has begun, and the scene is very lively and full of people! Among them are professional treasure hunters, some of whom are still familiar faces.

After parking the car, Ye Tian and Jason walked into the auction hall quickly.

Ye Tian's appearance immediately attracted the attention of some treasure hunters at the scene.

In the past two days, he has been a hot topic in the warehousing auction circle, especially those who have participated in the auction of Smithsonian Warehousing Company, and he is even more impressed.

As soon as I walked into the stadium, before I started the treasure hunt, someone came up to say hello.

"Hey, good morning, Steven, good morning!"

It's a familiar face, and it's also the bidding opponent in the last game, Haven.

There were two or three treasure hunters beside him who had never seen him, all looking at Ye Tian, their eyes full of curiosity and envy.

"Good morning!Haven, I didn't expect to meet you here, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

Ye Tian turned his head to look at it, and immediately smiled and said hello to Haiwen.

After chatting casually, Haven asked with great interest:

"Steven, those two auction announcements from Sotheby's, Slash's double-headed piano and a large number of Ferrari models, should all come from you, right?"

"That's right, I did send it to Sotheby's, and it came from the two Smithsonian warehouses."

Ye Tian smiled and nodded in acknowledgement.

This has spread so much that it is impossible to deny it.

Sotheby's needs to verify the legal identity of the lot, so it will inevitably contact Smithsonian Warehousing to ask for relevant information.

When the Smithsonian Company heard the news, how could it be possible to let go of this opportunity to let go of this hype! The news quickly spread throughout the warehousing and auction circles, making everyone dumbfounded.

"Wow! You're super lucky!"

Hearing Ye Tian's affirmative reply, Haiwen immediately let out a burst of admiration.

At this time, his eyes were already red with envy, and his heart was full of holes, dripping blood constantly!

Millions of dollars! Just slip through your hand, who doesn't feel distressed?

Several other treasure hunters are the same, their eyes are full of envy, jealousy and hatred!

After saying a few more polite words that were not nutritious, Ye Tian said goodbye and left, and walked to the auction booth not far away with Jason to start today's treasure hunt.

Looking at Ye Tian's departing back, Haiwen couldn't suppress his emotions anymore, and began to scold in a low voice, even wanting to slap the two of them.

"Fack! I'm a fucking idiot! I've missed so many babes and made this kid a big bargain! Damn it!

"Haven, forget it! This windfall is not destined to belong to you! I know the situation of the day, even without this kid, you can't fight the two old foxes of White and William!"

Another treasure hunter spoke up.

Having said that, his eyes were equally full of envy and remorse.

Why didn't I go to that auction? Maybe I'll have a chance to make a fortune!

Suppressing his feelings of remorse and jealousy a little, Haiwen looked at Ye Tian's back and said fiercely:

"This kid's vision is too sharp! It's only been a long time, and he's already found a treasure several times, go, keep up, see what he buys today, we will make a move if we have the chance, maybe we can make a fortune!"

Several people next to him immediately shook their heads and directly rejected his proposal.

"Forget it, I don't know about Garcia and they were pitted by this kid? one after another, it has become a joke in the warehouse auction circle, I don't want to experience the feeling of being humiliated!"

"This kid is too shrewd and cunning! It's hard to take advantage, let's go ahead with the plan, don't make any trouble!"

Hearing the words of the two friends, Haiwen's face suddenly changed, and he instantly thought of what happened to Garcia.

"I'm not an idiot like Garcia, I can't be fooled!"

Haven retreated, but he didn't give in.

In the blink of an eye, he completely dispelled the idea of keeping up with the competition, no one wants to be regarded as a fool by others, and he is no exception, it is not very honorable to become the laughing stock of the auction world!

At this time, a friend next to him pointed to the very lively auction hall and said:

"Don't worry about a rookie, maybe he's just shit luck, let's go, let's start the treasure hunt!

Afterwards, Haven and his friends walked into the auction hall and began to hunt for treasures with envy and jealousy, and everyone had a ruthless look on their faces!

Hai Wen dispelled the idea of following Ye Tian, but others didn't necessarily think so.

In the distance, there were two treasure hunters paying attention to Ye Tian, and one of them had also appeared at the Smithsonian Warehousing Company's auction site.

Seeing that Ye Tian and Jason had already started the treasure hunt, they immediately followed.

"Jermaine, you must keep an eye on this Chinese kid, let's take action when we see something good, maybe we can make a windfall today!"

"OK! Let's go make money!"

......

Ye Tian didn't realize at this time that he had been targeted, and he was quickly sweeping the stalls inside.

Since it is to deal with idle items at home, there are not many things on the general stall, and you can basically sweep it at a glance.

As long as Ye Tian passes by the stall and scans it twice and finds that there are no antiques and valuable artworks, he will leave immediately, as for those cheap second-hand goods, he doesn't need to look at them, so the speed is very fast.

This surprised Jason next to him, but he didn't say anything, just followed.

In a few minutes, Ye Tian had already passed nearly ten stalls.

This made the two tails hanging behind him a little dumbfounded.

"Fake, is this here for treasure hunting? Why does it look like he's here to go shopping, it's so fast!"

"Don't worry about him! I believe that this kid will never run here to hang out when he is full, he must be here to hunt for treasure, although he is very fast, but every stall has not let go, he will look twice, he must be looking for something!"

After exchanging two sentences, the two tails immediately followed firmly.

Soon, a smile appeared on their faces.

Sweeping to the twelfth stall, Ye Tian stood still and began to check the goods on the stall.

Under his sunglasses, his eyes were already flashing with surprise and a bright and dazzling red light.

Apparently, antiques between one hundred and three hundred years appeared in front of him!
