Chapter 57 [Hand-to-hand Combat]

The two of them are predators in the New York warehouse auction house, and there are many contradictions when they look down and don't look up, but Old Tom is a halfway monk who started from a small warehouse like a snowball, slowly expanding his business, unlike the bald George.

It is true that the two men have contradictions, but the bald George also admires Old Tom's ability to do business, and sees Old Tom come through the crowd to the auctioneer's side. The bald George came over with a smile, looked at the beautiful auctioneer with his hands crossed, and said gloomily to the old Tom next to him.

"I've taken a fancy to this British porcelain container, how about it? Tom is going to compete with me, do you have that capital? ”

Old Tom shook his head disdainfully, calmly watching the auctioneer gushing and mobilizing everyone's emotions. "The import and export terminals are not opened by your family, and whoever has the money can auction off expired containers, which is a right granted to citizens by law. Since I'm here, I can't go back empty-handed, you like me and I like it, it depends on who takes the container with how much money. ”

Although Old Tom is a black man and a halfway monk, he is not as strong as himself in terms of experience and capital, but Old Tom will always cause trouble for himself if he does not admit defeat, and he is particularly cunning, and the bald George has suffered from Old Tom not once or twice.

Half a year ago, when the two of them were auctioning off a medium-sized warehouse, they found a fanned Cadillac in the warehouse, although there was no way to determine what age this Cadillac was. But it is very well preserved, even the four tires are original, and the antique car is quite marketable.

Both of them fell in love with this warehouse, and at the same time they also fell in love with this piece, and the green oilcloth fanned up Cadillac launched a fierce competition, and at that time Tom Sr.'s capital was not as strong as it is now. But old Tom has a lot of eyes and thieves, and his methods are also very tough, making a desperate appearance and competing with the bald George for the price.

However, the auctioneer who auctioned the warehouse at that time was very happy, and the price continued to rise, and finally ended in the victory of the bald George, but the price paid was too painful.

Because the Cadillac looks very classic on the outside, the bald George opened the front hood of the car when the most critical core parts were gone, which means that the Cadillac was just an empty shell without an engine.

The engine number and the frame number are the ID cards of the vehicle, they are uniformly linked, if your Cadillac, the frame number and the engine number are related, the car is considered an antique car.

But now that the engine is gone, if you add a Cadillac engine, the engine number is different, and its price will immediately drop by 1/3.

No matter what you say, this car is assembled, not produced by the original car, which is a big taboo in antique cars, so it made the bald George suffer a big loss all of a sudden.

Although he didn't lose money, he didn't make much, this time it was a waste of fun, and when he looked back and thought about it, Bald Joe realized that his anger had been hooked up by old Tom and he lost his mind.

This is in the hands of old Tom, since then the bald George is 100,000 careful about the competitor of the old Tom, and reminds himself that he must not be fooled, this time I saw the old Tom shoot, to be honest, the bald George is a little bottomless in his heart.

Because Old Tom didn't come alone, there were two young people standing next to him, and just now the three of them lowered their heads and muttered for a long time, they must have found a way to dig a hole for themselves.

So the bald George's precautionary heart immediately raised a few levels, and seeing that the atmosphere was good, the beautiful auctioneer began to bid, this imported from the United Kingdom, the container, the starting price was 5,000 US dollars.

The starting price has reached such a high level that his bid price is calculated from $500, which means that the price of a bid is increased by $500 and $1,000, and so it doubles up.

Old Tom and bald George fell in love with this porcelain container imported from England, are everyone else blind, and the bidders around them are not as strong as two people at the time of the auction, but they also want to make a lot of money, otherwise why would they come today.

So the auctioneer said it, and after the starting price was $5,000, the bidders began to immediately surround like piranhas, smelling blood, with two large crocodiles on the outermost part.

After a long time in this industry, you will know that if you really have your eye on which warehouse, there is no need to raise the auction price with these troublemakers, but will choose to sell last. After killing the main competitor, this warehouse is yours, so these bidders who have made previous bids are basically small miscellaneous fish.

Sure enough, when the price reached $10,000, the small trash fish withdrew from the middle batch of big catfish and began to surround the fish, and began to compete for the price, and at this time Tom and George began to calculate in their hearts how much the container would earn.

Calculate your own psychological price, when the price of the container reached $15,000, there were only two bidders left, and at this time, Old Tom took the lead in holding up his number plate and shouted loudly.

"$16,000,"

Before Old Tom's words fell, the bald head on the side held up his number and shouted, "$18,000,"

After only a few seconds from 10,000 to now, the price climbed to $2,000, and the sudden entry of these two big crocodiles into the battlefield made those catfish-level carnivores immediately scatter.

Who can afford to provoke the two of them, so they obediently withdrew from the competition and watched the excitement on the side, the two of them are you coming and going, competing for the price of $1,000 and $2,000, so it will rise up.

The beautiful auctioneer was so excited that she trembled, and the sweat on her face fell, the higher the price, the higher his commission, the higher the profit of the dock storage company, as for whether the container auctioned by the bidder can return to the cost. That's not within everyone's consideration, who will have a grudge against money, the beautiful auctioneer is doing this, and the time is not short, and she has developed a pair of sharp eyes.

It's very interesting to look at two people, one black and one white, one tall and one short, but when the two of them ask for a price, they never frown, and they are not bad at first glance. Who can miss the opportunity to make money? The beautiful auctioneer began to use her auction skills, and the change in the speed of her speech pushed the bidding price of the two people to the crater.

Obviously know that there is a volcano below, but the two of them still add money to the top, you sing and I will appear, the other party raised the card and just put down the number plate here, and the auction pays attention to a momentum.

The momentum can suppress the opponent's arrogance to him, and the atmosphere at the scene can be called hot, and at this time, standing in the middle of the Year of the Goat, John next to him stabbed Yang Nianzhong's ribs and looked at the boss and said.

"Boss, I just heard the outside bidders whisper that this container contains British porcelain, and any set worth more than a hundred dollars will be worth more than a hundred dollars, should we give up?"

Yang Nianzhong looked at John, stared at the big eyes, smiled in disbelief, patted him on the shoulder and said. "My dear brother, rest assured, I know in my heart, the big fish is still to come, why are you in a hurry?"
