Since its inauguration in 1866, the square has undergone many renovations and has continued to evolve with the times, and has never been obsolete by the times, and still performs the function of entertaining the public.
The most recent modification of the square took place in February 1994 and was redesigned in a postmodern style, and later, although the square was not overhauled, minor repairs continued to be made.
For example, the most recent repair took place at the beginning of the year, and the square was equipped with an internet connection, and now the whole square can be connected to WIFI.
Pershing Square is a rare open public space in the old downtown area of Los Angeles, and Li Du and his family arrived at the auction company early, and instead of entering, they stayed in the square for a while.
At this time, the sun hung in the eastern sky, and the golden sunlight shone down, and the weather was not too hot, and it was not uncomfortable to shine on people.
There were some breakfast carts in the square, and Godzilla went over to buy a bunch of sandwiches, burgers, and other fast food, and brought them back to eat happily with Ooku.
Li Du was not interested in these things, and when he saw that there was a Chinese food truck, he went to buy a xiaolongbao.
As a result, the xiaolongbao was unexpectedly delicious, and there was soup in it, so he drank soy milk, and he ate the xiaolongbao with four drawers and spent fifty yuan.
The price of this breakfast is a bit high, but considering that this is the center of Los Angeles, and the breakfast cart is slow and expensive to make xiaolongbao, the price of fifty yuan is acceptable.
While eating, he sat on a square seat.
The chairs are interesting, with old postcards on the backs.
The postcards are porcelain and black-and-white photos of Los Angeles in the past, and the clarity is so high that it can help people recall the city's past.
After breakfast and a break in the square, the four of them went to the auction.
There were a total of six warehouses to be auctioned, and more than 40 people came, and it was clear that there was no shortage of people in a place like Los Angeles, especially treasure pickers.
Hans looked around, shook his head, and said, "There is no threat." ā
Li Du said: "It seems that there are a lot of people. ā
Hans sneered: "It's just some unemployed vagrants, these guys see that there is no threshold in the warehousing and auction industry, so they want to make a fortune by good luck, it's too simple." ā
Although the two of them communicated in private, the warehouse company was such a big place, except for the necessary aisle corridor, the rest of the place was a warehouse.
After all, this is downtown Los Angeles, and every inch of land is no joke.
More than forty people gathered in the aisle, and even if Hans's voice was small, someone next to him could still hear him.
While they were chatting, a big black man suddenly stretched out his hand and pushed Hans, and said in a vicious voice, "What were you talking about just now?" ā
Hans was pushed by him and staggered, and Li Du teased: "Man, it's time for you to work out, why are you so weak now?" ā
The treasure pickers around laughed, most of them didn't know the two, and thought that the two had infighting.
But after all, some people saw Hans and Li Du, and saw the black man pushing Hans, and these people retreated one after another, so as not to be innocent.
Hans was not angry, he staggered to his feet, turned around and said: "Let me remind you, warehouse auctions are not for everyone, if you want to make money by luck, it is better to buy the big lotto." ā
The big man gave him a middle finger and said, "I'll buy your strips." ā
Hans sighed, "God has left you a way out, why did you block it with?" ā
The big man said fiercely: "Shut up, foreigner, don't provoke me, or I'll crush your head!" ā
Hans walked over and said, "Come, crush my head." ā
The big man slammed his face gloomily and hit him with his chest, but as soon as he took a step, two strong men squeezed in and squeezed him to the wall.
was blocked by two strong men with a height of two meters and one by the wall, and the big man suddenly panicked and shouted, "Damn, what is this for?" ā
"Aren't you going to blow my head off? But it looks like you're going to have to blow up my two brothers first. Hans grinned.
A treasure picker next to him added: "Idiot, you really dare to provoke anyone, this is Boss Li and Boss Fu of Flagpole City, have you seen a lot of Chinese treasure pickers?" No vision! ā
"Who are Boss Li and Boss Fu?" Some treasure hunters exchanged heads.
Someone replied: "The most legendary treasure hunter in Flagpole City, that Chinese is a genius, and he may be the person who took the shortest time to join the 100,000 Club from the 10,000 Yuan Club." ā
"Last time Warner Bros. held an auction at the film and television warehouse, the two of them cleaned up Pol and York!"
"Pol and York of the Million Club? Oh, they're kind of a quasi-million club. ā
The black man was so frightened that he said weakly: "I'm sorry, I must have been dizzy just now, Boss Fu, I'm sorry." ā
Hans didn't have the same knowledge as him, and after all, he was talking nonsense, so he waved his hand and told Godzilla to get out of the way.
This incident was just a small episode in the auction, the black man had no face to stay here, and he was afraid of retaliation when no one was around, so he hurriedly left.
The auction began, and Li Du was only tentatively offering.
When he arrived at the fourth warehouse, he saw the fire extinguishers scattered in two large boxes before he began to bid in earnest.
It may be that the previous images of Godzilla and Ooku are more intimidating, and when he made an offer for the fourth warehouse, the other treasure hunters withdrew from the competition.
The auctioneer pointed at him and said, "One hundred, one hundred, one hundred, is this warehouse so cheap, everyone must see the contents clearly, it is more than a hundred......
From the outside, this warehouse is just worthless, and there is a reason why people do not participate in the quotation.
In the end, for a hundred yuan, Li Du took the warehouse at a very low price.
When the auction was over, they didn't bother to clean up the warehouse and hurriedly drove to the next one.
There is also a warehouse company holding an auction today, and this one is more numerous, with a total of eleven warehouses.
After they rushed over, they auctioned off to the third warehouse, and this auction attracted more treasure hunters, more than 80 people gathered together.
The two squeezed in, and someone pushed Li Du from the side, and Li Du bumped into a treasure picker.
The treasure picker frowned and turned around, and when he saw that it was him, he laughed and said, "Boss Li? Hello. ā
Li Du smiled and nodded, then looked to the side with a gloomy face.
A bald man was smiling at him: "Hey, Chinese guy, are you a soft-footed shrimp?" I almost fell while walking. ā
