The small town of Delt, Arizona's oasis of wonder. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Of course, this is just a name given to themselves by the locals, and the town is not well-known, and there are very few people who pay attention to it, so no one cares what it is called.

Like Humphreys, they claim to be the birthplace of American country music, but no one believes that.

However, the appearance of the town of Delt is a small miracle, because it was built on a wasteland.

Arizona has a lot of deserts and wastelands, and in fact, a lot of land can't support people, lack of water and nutrients, and other plants can't survive except cacti.

Delt was once such a wasteland, and later during a crustal movement, a vein of groundwater migrated to form the Delt River.

With rivers and water, there is the possibility of life.

Later, some cowboys came to the enclosure to raise cattle and sheep, and slowly, some people saw that the pasture lacked pasture, and gradually there was a farm.

Delt is much like Holbrook in that there is a lack of resources and fierce competition between agriculture and animal husbandry.

But it didn't become a place of vendettas, because in the beginning, the local farms were for ranches, and some of them were even run by relatives of the ranchers.

To this day, Delt is still very peaceful, maybe not many resources, everyone does not have much money, but it is comfortable and relaxing.

Turis and the others arrived in the town together, and the town came into view after the trucks lined up along the road, and after weaving through a field of red rocks, the town came into view.

"Maybe we'll be able to get some outdoor stuff this time, and you see, a lot of outdoor travel enthusiasts are here. The bearded Karl said to his partner Charles Dickens.

Dickens asked curiously, "When does this attract outdoor travelers?"

Karl's beard curled and said, "God knows the answer, these guys are all neurotics, why don't they rest when they have free time?"

While they were chatting, someone waved on the road, and Dickens stopped the car and asked, "What are you doing?"

A young man in a denim suit grinned: "Man, can you give me a ride? My car broke down and I have to go back and get tools to fix it." ”

This kind of thing is very common on American roads, and the more cars there are, the more they break down.

Dickens opened the car door and said, "Come up!"

"Thanks," the young man in denim laughed, "what are you doing with so many trucks? I've lived in Delt for twenty-five years, and it's the first time I've seen so many trucks come in. ”

The bearded Karl said: "Let's participate in the warehouse auction, you have a warehouse company here that is going to hold an auction, we want to see if we can get something good." ”

The young man was surprised and asked, "Is there a warehouse auction? Is the Prague warehouse company going to hold an auction? What can there be? There is only worthless waste?"

Dickens winked at him and said, "We are treasure hunters, and we are best at finding good things from worthless waste." ”

The young man shrugged and said, "Yes, as far as I know, the Prague warehouse company is about to go out of business, and I remember that no one has rented it for a while, and I didn't expect that there are still things in it." ”

As they chatted, Bearded and Dickens learned about the town from the young man to help him dig up valuable goods at tomorrow's auction.

Arriving in the town, the truck stopped in front of a grocery store, and the youth jumped out of the driveway: "I'm at the place, I wish you all good things in Delt." ”

A middle-aged man walked out of the grocery store and asked, "Tori, who is this?"

The young man said: "They are treasure hunters who have come to participate in the warehouse auction. ”

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Oh, that's it, it's been really lively lately, I saw a truck driving into the town two nights ago, and I thought someone was coming to buy something." ”

"They're not buying, they're here to deliver. The grocery store owner said leisurely at the door, "I don't understand these people, they were Californians who came two days ago." ”

The bearded Karl and Dickens looked at each other, and the latter asked, "Californians?"

"Yes, a couple of Californians, even though they told me they were Tucson, am I deaf? I can't hear their Californian sissy?" said the boss disdainfully.

Dickens bought two Cokes and said, "Is there a guy with a dog?"

"Yes, two Rottweilers, I didn't expect those sissies to have such good dogs. ”

The bearded Karl took a deep breath and said, "Damn, it's Pol and York!"

In the afternoon, they drove to the Prague Warehouse Company, the only warehouse company in the town.

As the young man said, the warehouse company looked like it was about to go out of business, the warehouses were in disrepair, some of the warehouses were still covered with grass, and the doors were rusty with old-fashioned iron doors.

But the warehouse was cleaned, and someone was packing up in the warehouse, and Dickens walked over and asked, "Hey, man, is this your warehouse?"

The man said in a local accent, "Of course, what's wrong with the place I used to store my tools?"

"Oh, it's fine. ”

Dickens and the bearded Karl are learning from Li Du and stepping on it in advance, but they can't step on anything, it's just that the calf learns the big cow's.

The warehouse company is not large, only thirty or forty.

Dickens quickly walked around and smiled, "This must be the smallest warehouse company I've ever seen." ”

The bearded Karl said: "It's okay to have good goods, I just got the news that there may be a small tractor here, get it!"

Dickens immediately became interested: "Tractor?

Some of the iron doors of the warehouses were damaged, and when they saw that there was no one around, they used the self-defense dagger they carried with them to dig a hole and look inside with a flashlight.

The light illuminated the darkness, and then Dickens's eyes lit up, and he said, "Come and see, what is that?"

The bearded Karl was just about to get up when a security guard came out and yelled, "What are you doing?"

If it was just an ordinary viewing, the warehouse company wouldn't care about it, but the two of them used daggers to open people's doors, which is illegal.

The two didn't say a word, and quickly lowered their heads and ran away.

As he drove away, the bearded Karl asked Dickens, "Man, what do you see?"

"Some cowhides and polished cow skulls, Made, are good things, and it seems that Dert is not as barren as the legend out there!" said Dickens.

These things could not be picked up, and the cowhide was more obvious, so they went back and passed the news on.

The reason why they did this was to obtain a higher status, and the status of treasure hunters could be maintained not only by their earning ability, but also by information channels.

The warehousing and auction industry is very networked, and whoever has more information channels will have a higher status and more popularity.
