After they got the units, the next step was to clean up.
They had to clean up the four storage units in one day. Hans bewailed, ”Sh*t, we have to stay up all night!”
Li Du shrugged. ”We have a saying in our hometown, which is: ‘Making money is difficult and feces are disgusting.’ Since we want to make money, we have to work hard.”
Hearing this saying, Hans nodded thoughtfully, ”That makes sense. Yes, feces are really disgusting. D*mmt!”
Mr. Li stared at him, stunned.
Hans reacted and laughed, ”Why are you looking at me like that?
”Do you mean you have eaten feces?” Li Du asked in surprise.
Hans snorted, ”Who hasn’t been young and frivolous?”
”Do you mean we have to eat feces to be young and frivolous? Sh*t, you were a kid who ate feces. Ah Meow, let’s stay away from him!” Mr. Li said in a disgusted tone.
Ah Meow also showed a disgusted facial expression.
”F*ck!”
Prescott had a reputation for cowboy antics, and grumpy locals. But after observing the attitudes of the people at the storage auction, Li Du believed they actually have a good temper.
”None of them stayed to have a look at what we got. They all left. These guys simply desire nothing.” Mr. Li looked at the desolate area outside the door of the unit.
Hans opened the door of the last storage unit and said, ”Of course, no one would be so silly to stand under the rain? Also, do you really think the local people have a good temper?”
”Yes. It was not competitive during the auction.”
”First of all, these are rubbish storage units, and nobody will compete for these. Second, they are not ”cowboys”. If you attend a livestock auction or an agricultural auction, you will know who the real cowboys are!”
The golden rule of cleaning up units was starting with something valuable. This was because people tended to be impatient, and it was easier for them to clean if they found valuable items at the beginning.
Li Du had said there was something valuable which worth a photo-taking in the last storage. Therefore, Hans started to clean up this storage with enthusiasm.
His enthusiasm was quickly rewarded. Soon, he found the safe deposit box in the corner; he exclaimed excitedly and carried out the safe deposit box.
”How do we open it? We don’t know the password,” Li Du said.
Hans said, ”I have no idea, but fortunately some of our new equipment might help.”
He went to the second unit and opened it. It was filled with a complete set of tools, and he carried back a sledgehammer. Then, he smashed it onto the password-lock of the safe deposit box.
The sound scared Ah Meow while it was washing its face. ”Meow-oo!”
The password-lock was destroyed. Li Du pulled the door and shook his head regretfully. ”What the h*ll? That was a good safe deposit box. You just destroyed such a useful thing!”
”Well, we wouldn’t be able to open the safe deposit box if I didn’t. Stupid kid.” Hans threw the sledgehammer and tilted the safe deposit box forward. A pile of documents and a couple of handguns dropped out of it.
He exclaimed immediately, ”Sh*t, we’re lucky! We got handguns! ”
Handguns were not so valuable in the United States. Normally, a new handgun cost a few hundred dollars. Some good handguns—such as the Desert Eagle or HK series—could sell for thousands of dollars.
However, Americans have extraordinary enthusiasm toward handguns. They would be very happy if they got a gun from a storage auction.
Hans took off the holsters and he saw two dark, smooth-shaped handguns; they were almost exact replicas. A complicated pattern was carved on the walnut gunstocks.
Seeing these patterns, Hans cried happily, ”We are so lucky! This is the M1911 Crown, which is the collective edition. Also, they are double-barrelled!”
”What?”
”Do you know the M1911? It represented the image of the United States Armed Forces. It was widely used by military forces from 1911 onwards. It was replaced and phased out in 1985 after being used in World War I, World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and the Persian Gulf War. It was probably the handgun which was most widely produced in the United States.”
