Of course, he still had another way of earning money, which was treasure hunting at storage units.
After leaving Harry Winston and returning to the hotel, he continued to rest in preparation for checking storage units the next day.
On the morning of the second day, he walked out the door, full of energy, before seeing Godzilla waiting outside.
”Hey, mate. The fire opals were already sold off. You don't need to guard the door anymore,” Li Du teased.
Godzilla handed him a piece of paper and said, ”Boss, Fox says he won't be going to the storage unit company.”
Li Du had already anticipated this as Hans would have definitely wandered around Las Vegas all night.
He took the piece of paper and looked at it. On it was the rundown of the situation of the storage unit auction, including the number of units on auction. The number gave him a shock as there were 145 storage units!
Among the previous auctions he had participated in, having 14 or 15 storage units was already considered a large scale auction. Yet, the amount for this auction was 10 times higher!
While pinching the bridge of his nose, Li Du said, ”Godzilla, my friend, this is going to be an uphill battle.”
Godzilla clenched his fist. ”Doesn't matter what—we will overcome it!”
Li Du bumped fists with him and said, ”Yeah, you're right. We will overcome it. Let's go. Call Big Quinn for breakfast.”
”Big Quinn went to rent a car.”
Li Du nodded. The two subordinates were great. Godzilla was loyal while Big Quinn was meticulous. As such, he was willing to spend large amounts of money on them.
When they reached the lobby, two tall Asian ladies with exquisite makeup took notice of him and stopped him in his tracks.
”Excuse me?” Li Du looked at them curiously.
A lady with a cone-shaped face and thick eyebrows said in a pitiful manner, ”Hello, sir. Are you Chinese?”
Li Du nodded. ”Yes, what's the matter? Is there anything you guys need help with?”
The lady was delighted. ”We are, too. My sister and I are also Chinese. The thing is, we would like to go to the casino on the lower level to have fun. However, we are not yet 21 years old . . .”
According to America's law, anyone under the age of 21 was not allowed to enter a casino. If anyone under 21 was caught entering, the casino would be closed down as a form of severe punishment.
Therefore, every casino checked their customers' age. Furthermore, known as the honor among thieves, there was an unwritten rule among casinos that no harm was to come to children.
Nonetheless, there would always be loopholes in the law. Even though by law, anyone under 21 was not allowed to enter a casino, many casinos had a large lobby reserved for people to relax in.
Although this area belonged to the casino's boss, there was no gambling equipment inside. As such, it was not considered a part of the casino and people who were under 21 could stay in the area and observe the gambling activities in their surroundings.
Consequently, many tourists who brought their children along on vacation in Las Vegas would bring them to such places for a tour. Not only was it lawful, it was also an eye-opener.
After hearing the lady's words, Li Du smiled and said, ”You guys want to go to the casino on the lower level to have a look, right?”
Both ladies nodded in excitement. The other lady replied, ”Yes. We need someone to bring us in. Could you help us, handsome? We will repay you after.”
Li Du looked at both of them with interest and inquired, ”Repay me? Repay me in what way?”
