”Two hundred! Two hundred, two hundred is the starting bid Is there anyone willing to bid three hundred, three hundred dollars for the priceless treasures inside?”
In no time at all the price jumped by more than one thousand dollars

Very good, this gentleman has placed a one thousand six hundred dollar bid How about one thousand seven hundred, one thousand seven hundred dollars is the next bid”
It kept increasing

”Four thousand dollars!” shouted a wealthy looking African American Li Du was shocked by the price ”There's soh?”
Hans could only ad, ”Of course! Didn't I already tell you? Another nae chair is the ”Multipurpose Electric space Capsule” A new one costs somewhere around twenty thousand dollars!”
In the end, unit 207 on by the wealthy African American for the price of six thousand five hundred dollars Seeing his save him a pitiful stare He knew that in that box, there were just a bunch of finance books and ht that the box was quite spacious, so he used it for organizational purposes
Unit 208, the next storage unit, was offered at fifty dollars because of all the trash inside
Seeing this, Li Du raised his eyebrows at Hans ”Hey, Big Fox, how about we buy this storage unit?”
”What's inside?” Hans asked, somewhat surprised
”See, that's a television cover, so there's probably a television under it That alone is probably around fifty dollars”, Li Du said as he pointed inside
”Anything else?” Hans asked
”For that, we'll have to wait and see”
”In other words, you only see one thing that would make us break even?” Hans asked ”Then don't bid for it! When we bid, we are undertaking a risk, and the reason that we face such risks is for the sake of profit Why would we undertake risks with little to no return?”
The last storage unit had a few items that looked quite nice However, after Hans swiped the unit with his flashlight, he only shook his head with regret
”What's up?” Li Du asked
”If I still had e Do you see that case? I think it's a gun case There's probably an antique gun inside that could be sold for quite a high price” Hans sacrificed convenience when he hadthe bid for a storage unit, they only had 24 hours of ownershi+p Within that tie They e company If they only take away the valuable objects and leave behind the worthless ones, then they would not be welco company
When one didn't have a car, it was a lot harder to deal with the trash
In the end, the final storage unit was sold for 1,500 dollars Just from this, it was apparent that Hans wasn't the only one who had seen the gun case
When the auction ended, Hans went to pay the fees This storage company didn't accept credit cards or online wire transfers, so Hans had to pay with cash
