Chapter 9 Eyesight is also needed to pick up leaks!
Zhu Yu picked up a piece of torn clothes, wiped the dust on the old safe, and said with a smile:
"In this container, the most valuable is this safe."
"Safe?" Joanna was a little surprised, and a little unconvinced, "This safe...... Isn't it the usual old-fashioned safe? ”
"No, no, no." Zhu Yu shook his head and said, "This safe is at least eighty years old. ”
"So long? Really? "Joanna knows a lot about motorcycles, but the rest is a layman.
I owe it to her friend who knows motorcycles.
"It's true." Zhu Yu squatted down and pointed to the sign on the safe and said:
"Look at this brand, now the owner of this brand has been acquired, and the brand has been hidden.
That is, there is no longer any production of such new safes in the world. ”
"I see!" Joanna has a long look of knowledge.
Although Zhu Yu knew that Joanna was pandering to herself, she still felt quite satisfied with her vanity.
"And how much is it worth?" Joanna asked the most crucial question.
"Probably ......" Zhu Yu looked at it carefully again and gave an estimated price:
"It should sell for 4,000 dollars!"
"Oh O!" Joanna couldn't help but exclaim, "The two of us, these two containers, have earned more than seven thousand dollars!" ”
Even if Joanna is a little rich woman, after calculating today's earnings, she can't help but exclaim.
This makes money so fast!
Zhu Yu immediately suppressed her thoughts:
"You can't think so. Not all containers can be earned. The two of us are lucky, to be exact, today is a lucky day for you and me, you bring me good luck! ”
He rubbed the safe as he said:
"Most people can make a few tens or hundreds of dollars by photographing containers. Some even have to lose a lot! ”
Although Zhu Yu has only just entered the industry, he has been observing it for more than half a month, and he told Joanna about some examples of gambling failures he saw and heard, trying to dispel her idea of despising the risks of this industry.
Joanna smiled and took Zhu Yu's arm and said:
"Don't worry, I won't come over and gamble on the container myself. There are so many futures cabinets in our yard, if you are really interested, I will go and secretly open one! ”
Zhu Yu Khan.
He forgot that the beautiful girl in front of him had a big freight yard at home.
There are at least a dozen of expired abandoned or forgotten containers in it every day, right?
At this time, Joanna's mobile phone rang, and she picked it up and saw that it was a classmate's, saying that she had arrived at the door of the freight yard.
When I got out of the container, I saw a middle-aged white man and a girl walking over.
"Andy, here!" Joanna beckoned.
The tall, short-haired girl walked over, glanced at Zhu Yu curiously, and said to Joanna:
"This is your Prince Charming?"
"yes!" Joanna graciously admitted, "Hello, Uncle Ronald! ”
"Hello Joanna." The middle-aged white man greeted with a smile, "And you, young Chinese boy, hello!" ”
"Hello, Mr. Ronald." Zhu Yu responded with a smile.
"What's your name?" Andy asked curiously.
Andy is a tomboy, middle-to-middle-looking, and looks quite lively.
"My name is Zhu Yu."
"Uncle Ronald, that's what I call Harley."
Joanna's introduction is like a treasure: "I opened it from the container!" ”
"You're in luck!" Ronald is genuinely envious, not everyone has such luck.
Ronald said, walking over to inspect the car closely.
After checking for more than ten minutes, he stood up and said with a smile:
"Yes, it's a good car, it's well maintained, there's no rust, and the parts are original...... Are you sure to make a move? ”
"Yes, yes!" Joanna said excitedly.
"Well, I can give you eleven thousand dollars......"
"Deal!" Joanna couldn't wait.
I was thinking about 10,000 US dollars, but I didn't expect to have an extra 1,000 US dollars, so naturally it was going to be closed.
The motorcycle, parts, and tools were all let Ronaldella go, and Zhu Yu called John and said that he had an old-fashioned collectible safe here.
As soon as John asked about the model number, he said:
"This one is rare, I know who wants to collect him, you wait."
After a while, a strange phone call came.
"Zhu Yu? I'm White. Hear old John say you have an old-fashioned safe there? What model? ”
Zhu Yu reported the model, and after the person confirmed it again and again, he said that he wanted to come and have a look.
While waiting, Zhu Yu and Joanna picked up the garbage in the container and mentioned it to the garbage dump outside.
Joanna did this kind of work for the first time, and she worked hard because of the bonus of income.
Forty minutes later, a car drove up to the outside of the yard.
A short, middle-aged white man hurried over.
After seeing Zhu Yu, he immediately asked:
"Where's the safe?"
"Inside. Mr. White. ”
Zhu Yu smelled a strong smell of engine oil on this person.
Mechanical?
Zhu Yu guessed and followed White into the container.
Joanna also walked in curiously.
She couldn't imagine that such an old safe, about the size of a bedside table, was worth thousands of dollars.
If it was outside, she probably wouldn't even look at it.
"Well, it's the real thing." White looked at it for a long time before he stood up and said, "I think, three thousand five hundred dollars is a good price." ”
"Deal!" Zhu Yu saw that White was a person with a firm personality, so he didn't plan to bargain and make a deal directly.
"Okay, here you go!" White took out a wad of green coins from his pocket and handed it over.
Zhu Yu thought to himself, sure enough, if he made a counteroffer, there was a high probability that the other party would not agree, and the negotiation might even collapse.
A small profit of $3,300 is not bad!
Zhu Yu was still wondering, the reason why White paid $3,500 was because he had to pay John Sr. $500 as an intermediary fee?
Help White carry the safe into the car, and Zhu Yu and Joanna leave happily.
"Shall we have something delicious?" Joanna hugged Zhu Yu's arm and said, "Celebrate." ”
"Okay." Zhu Yu thought he was going to a restaurant to eat.
Unexpectedly, Joanna took Zhu Yu to the supermarket, bought some materials, and then went back to the container where Zhu Yu lived.
Her so-called delicious food is for Zhu Yu to make!
Joanna pillowed Zhu Yu's arm and said a little unhappily:
"I'm going to class tomorrow...... If you want to see you again, you can only last weekend, it's a real annoyance! ”
Zhu Yu thought it was good.
I can just take advantage of this week to make some money, and when I am closer to the goal, I can also improve my living environment by the way.
It's a bit inappropriate to let such a beautiful girl go on a date with herself in a container!
Even if Joanna doesn't care!
It's such a happy decision!
