Chapter 1133 It’s Not Me (1/2)

When the bidding hit forty thousand, Princeps called out, ”Forty-one thousand dollars!”

Hearing that, Li Du shook his head and stopped bidding.

The treasure hunters from Phoenix did not want to give up and asked, ”Will you hand it

over to that Tucson bastard?”

”Let him take it,” Li Du said.

”What did you see?” someone asked.

At that point, there was nothing to hide anymore. Li Du took out a high-definition, large

image of warehouse number 21 and showed it to the treasure hunters. He pointed to a

few spots on the image and said, ”Look here, here, and here. See something?”

”Nope,” The treasure hunters replied honestly.

”This is a reflective mirror. This is part of a wheel. This is the bottom half of the

nameplate. The above spells 'HAR' and the bottom spells 'IDSON'. If I did not guess

wrong, the letters on the nameplate should spell out, 'HARLEY-DAVIDSON'. The top

and bottom words are 'MOTOR' and 'CYCLES'.”

Someone shouted instantly, ”It's a Harley-Davidson motorcycle!”

Li Du nodded. ”That's right. In addition, look at the reflective mirror and wheels. It should

be an old model from the 80s or 90s. It can be worth fifty thousand dollars.”

The treasure hunters spread that conjecture quickly. During the time meant for

observing warehouse number twenty-two, someone urged Princeps to open up his

warehouse for a look.

Princeps opened the warehouse and then a surprised shout rang out. In the midst of a

bunch of wooden shelves, boxes and cloth, a Western-looking, ancient, but well-

preserved Harley motorbike appeared before their eyes.

Seeing that, the treasure hunters felt admiration for Li Du. He was a real expert.

A handful of people were curious. ”Now that I'm looking at the motorcycle, indeed, I can

see the reflective mirror and wheels from the picture, but I can't really see the letters

clearly.”

”Li must have seen that when he was observing the warehouse. I have had lunch with

him before. That dude is really sharp and has exceptional eyesight!”

News of Li Du's reputation and the accurate conjecture he just made rang out. Many of

the treasure hunters from other states could not help but grudgingly admit that Li Du

was good.

Black Wild Horse smiled at Jesus and said, ”Hey, Bell, seems like our Arizona produced

someone worthy.”

”I've told you guys, this one was born to dominate the warehouse auction profession,”

Jesus Bell praised. ”After interacting with him, you guys would think the same. You

would also admit defeat.”

Among the crowd at the back, Conrad looked at Li Du, his face full of hatred and

jealousy. George's relaxed looked dissolved and he started to look serious again. Softly,

he said, ”That Chinese dude, he's not easy to deal with!”

”George, we should become friends with him,” a treasure hunter beside him said.

George shook his head firmly. ”I will definitely get back at him once. I will let this sissy

regret bulling my son. I must let everyone know that they cannot trifle with the

Anthonys.”

Hearing his words, a treasure hunter nearby smiled politely and then left his side in

silence.

Princeps locked up the warehouse, celebrating in his heart.

That Harley-Davidson motorcycle was a classic model. It was very popular in the

collectors' circles. At the very least, it could fetch fifty to sixty thousand dollars. While he

would not make a huge margin, he would still earn some money.

Hence, this warehouse sparked off Princeps' strategy to follow Li Du's bids. However,

he warned himself to be wary of Li Du's cunning. He reminded himself to consider

carefully before following a bid and only strike when he was very confident.

Many treasure hunters had the same thoughts as Princeps. For the next few

warehouses, whichever Li Du bid on, other people would follow.

Princeps followed the bids a couple of times as well. However, he was very careful and

as long as the amount exceeded forty or fifty thousand, he would retreat.

Some of the newly-recruited Tucson treasure hunters were dissatisfied. They asked,

”Big boss, we should be more courageous. Why are you always stepping out of the

auction at the most crucial moments?”

Having made a win in that auction, Princeps regained his confidence and became

arrogant again.

He retorted, ”What do you know? Fighting this Chinese dude, you gotta be careful. You
