Chapter 1361 Chapter 1361 - Tiger, Tiger, Tiger (1/2)
Li Du did not pay much attention to the animals becoming famous on the internet. That was because he could not show himself, and neither did Sophie. Sophie had only filmed the things that had taken place between the six animals.
He found it strange. Sophie had said that the animals were becoming famous, extraordinarily famous.
At the end of June, Li Du brought along Lu Guan and the rest and stepped onto the grounds of Southern Tucson. He was planning to attend an auction.
In the past, when he went to other places to attend auctions, Sophie would go along. That was because, first, she was bored. Second, she had not traveled much around America and was still pretty curious and interested in seeing new places.
However, she had not joined in this time around. She kept the animals at home with her and watched them, keeping her camera and phone close.
The animals did not want that and thought of all imaginable ways to get into the car and run off. For over ten days, being famous had entertained them. However, after the short-lived novelty wore off, they had become sick of it.
Li Du had thrown them out from the car window without a qualm. As the car drove on, the animals howled and cried out. Then, Sophie came out with the camcorder.
On the journey, Lu Guan gave Li Du a quick update of the situation at the auction. ”It's jointly organized by three warehouse companies. One of them is clearing the warehouses because of bankruptcy. It has joined up with two other companies and there will be a total of forty to fifty warehouses.”
”So many?” Li Du asked.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
Lu Guan shrugged and said, ”That's right. Because one of the companies has gone bankrupt, all the warehouses that don't belong to anyone have to be auctioned off. Just that company alone has got 31 warehouses.”
”How about the valuation?”
”Based on the information I have, the valuable warehouses are among those 31. There's an old military warehouse in there which had belonged to a veteran who has been through the Second World War. As you know, boss, these veterans like to keep some valuable items,” Lu Guan said excitedly.
Li Du said lazily, ”That's right. Old soldiers like keeping good things. But they might not keep them in warehouses.”
The veteran would be at least ninety years old if he were still alive. Having lived so long, he would have had a fruitful life. He would have the money to survive and to be a collector.
Lu Guan said, ”This time, the items belonging to the old soldier must be kept in the warehouse. According to the information I got, one of the things he kept is a tank!”
Hearing that, Li Du sat up instantly. ”A tank? You mean he kept a tank?! A tank from World War II?”
”Yes, a Tiger Tank!”
Surprised, Li Du asked, ”Is he such a bigshot to collect things like that? I'm talking about a Tiger Tank, is that right? A Tiger Tank! How many of them are still around today?”
”Six. Two in France, two in Russia, two in England, and there's only one that can still be operated. It's in the military gallery in Britain.” Lu Guan had clearly done his homework.
Li Du said, ”And you are telling me that there's still one in the warehouse? D*mn it, there are six that still exist, and none of them are in America.”
Lu Guan smiled. ”No, boss, there's one in America. The officials have never taken this one into calculation. It is from my personal information source that I know of its existence. If you find it, there are seven Tiger Tanks!”
