Chapter 1091 Something Lost, Something Gained (2/2)
they had packed up the warehouse very quickly. The things inside had all been</p>
organized in different piles and moved out. Someone took down the cloth bag and upon
opening it, brought out a brand new Taser gun.
Seeing the gun, Princeps laughed loudly, ”X-26 taser gun? Fantastic! I like this thing.
Find a suitable buyer, and it can be sold for five thousand!”
”This is the X-26X, the model with the highest power,” a treasure hunter said excitedly.
He knew Taser guns very well.
That pleased Princeps even further. Raising the gun and aiming it at Li Du, he said,
”Then it can fetch ten thousand?”
”More like one hundred bucks,” Li Du laughed in disdain.
Princeps was just trying to agitate him. That gun was not that valuable. How much was
a Desert Eagle worth?
”How do I use this gun?” Princeps continued to toy with the Taser, pointing the muzzle
at Li Du. ”Is there an electrical dart? Can it kill? Does it mean that there would be no
repercussions for me if I shot someone?”
Princeps was just talking, he wouldn't dare to shoot Li Du.
The treasure hunters in Arizona were all aware that Li Du had the best fighters with him
at the auction. The combination of Brother Wolf, Godzilla, and Big Quinn was sufficient
to scare anyone.
If Princeps had shot Li Du, he would probably be beaten up by his three bodyguards.
Perhaps he would become handicapped for the rest of his life.
Princeps toyed with the Taser gun but did not find anything else that was valuable in the
warehouse.
Everything had been packed and organized. There were many random items, some of
which could be sold, but not for a high price.
Most of the items were trash and not only would not fetch any money but would cost to
dispose of.
Princeps' face started to darken and he called out, ”Look carefully, look carefully, it can't
be. There must be something valuable in this warehouse, find it for me!”
He could not believe that the warehouse Li Du was so intent on taking down had
nothing more valuable than a Taser gun.
The treasure hunters started searching again but found nothing else.
Anxious, Princeps dropped the Taser gun and went to search himself. He was just as Li
Du and everyone else saw him. Princeps had become the leader not because he had</p>
good foresight. In fact, his foresight and experience were no better than any other
regular treasure hunter's.
Hence, even though he did the work himself, Princeps did not find anything worth tens
or hundreds of thousand like he had expected to.
Princeps had been very confident and had held high expectations for the warehouse.
After all, Hans had bid up to fifty thousand dollars!
A treasure hunter from Phoenix walked over and offered Li Du a glass of fruit juice,
saying, ”Big Li, have a drink.”
Taking the glass, Li Du said in a low voice, ”See those tables by the side? Help me get
them. I will give you five thousand dollars. It doesn't matter how much you pay, I will still
give you five thousand dollars.”
At that point, Princeps and his people were all occupied with looking for valuable items
and had not noticed what Li Du was doing.
The eyes of the Phoenix's treasure hunter lit up. He exchanged a few gestures with his
friend and the friend nodded. Then the two of them started their act.
”Hey, Carter, have you packed up the warehouse? What were the gains?”
”We managed to get a couple of chairs, but there's no table. It's not a complete set. It
would be good if there were a few tables to pair with the chairs.”
”Need tables? Get here quickly. D*mmit, we are in luck. Look here, Princeps has some
tables.”
”Princeps, how about selling these tables to us? We would be able to pair them up as
sets of furniture.”
There were five tables in their warehouse. They looked like the small wooden tables
commonly seen in prison cells. The tables were not of good workmanship and were
worth little.
Without giving it much thought, and after a short negotiation, Princeps sold the five
tables for five hundred dollars to the treasure hunter named Carter.
After paying up and taking the tables, Carter immediately made the deal with Li Du.
After a hi-five, Li Du handed him five thousand dollars with a big smile.
He lost something but also gained from somewhere else, so his luck was really not bad.</p>
