Chapter 42 42. Crown of the Pine Tree
"What's the bet?" Dalton immediately asked excitedly.
Li Du remained indifferent: "The loser will provide reliable storage information to the other party."
Andrew didn't even think about it, and smiled disdainfully: "Ha, boy, what you think is so beautiful, you are just a rookie, what valuable warehouse information can you have? I am different, I will give you any information, you Enough for a year!"
It was the same old rhetoric, and the group of people who had gambled on the lore ball rolled their eyes secretly.
Li Du said with a smile: "If we win against you, it means that our vision and related channels are better than yours, so the information you give us is definitely not as good as what we can get by ourselves."
"That is to say, news from the losing party to the winning party can never make the winning party make a lot of money, but the joys of life are not only drinking and making money, winning itself is a kind of fun."
Hans applauded: "That's right, if you want to win, you must be willing to gamble!"
"Of course he has to be sure that he can win." Mr. Li added a knife out of habit.
Andrew stared angrily and said, "Okay, you guys are right, then let's take a gamble, and I will let you know which warehouse auction to participate in."
Reginald grinned and said, "How about we be notaries?"
"That's it." Andrew put on his sunglasses and left.
Dalton shrugged and said, "Well, he hasn't given us the AA meal money yet."
Li Du continued to stay here, don't say anything, just eat and drink hard.
After eating and drinking, the two left.
After driving on the street, Hans immediately shouted: "Hey, what's wrong with you, why are you so aggressive today? You even bet with Andrew, this is not your style."
Li Du said: "You saw the atmosphere at that time. Those guys held this party just to cause trouble. They have been making trouble all the time. I can't give up, can I?"
Hans spat and said, "That's right, fuck it!"
Li Du said: "More importantly, don't we have no good storage auction news recently? Then why don't we gamble? No matter whether we win or lose, at least we can get a good storage auction news."
Hearing this, Hans thought for a while and said, "Yes, this guy Andrew has a lot more news channels than us. The auction that the guy from the 100,000 club will participate in must be valuable."
Li Du said: "And I didn't say that the loser should give the winner the goods. I just said that I should provide the other party with a valuable storage auction news."
"We lost, just give him any news. If he loses, he has to give us a really useful news."
Hans asked, "Why?"
Li Du pointed to his head and said: "Move here, what are we? Rookies, the bottom treasure hunters, we are not afraid of embarrassment, but if Andrew doesn't give us a reliable good news, I will embarrass him , and he is not to be ashamed of."
Hans laughed: "Hey, kid, I found out that you still have some brains."
Li Du said: "If you spend less time messing around on wine tables and women's beds, then you can save a little bit of your brain."
"Don't teach me, haha, it's better to save your energy and deal with Andrew."
After returning, they went online to look at the first-generation IPONE that was listed on E-Bay. They no longer sold it to grocers, but sold it online.
Hans did not set the price directly, but participated in the online auction. He set the starting price for the mobile phone at 20,000 yuan, which was also the lowest price they expected.
As a result, they went out to a party, and when they came back, the price had been raised by 5,000 yuan to 25,500 yuan.
Seeing this, the two clapped happily, and Li Du said, "Why did we sell those goods in private? It would be great if they were also auctioned online."
Hans said: "On the road, I praised you for being smart. Not all goods are suitable for online sales, only things that everyone will be interested in and that cannot be bought through conventional channels."
After reading the quotation on the mobile phone, Li Du went to search for housing again.
Then luckily, he really found a good house, not far from here, just two intersections, the neighborhood where the house is located is called Pine Tree Crown, a mid-range neighborhood.
The house is rented out as a second bedroom, which is fully furnished and home appliances. It only costs 450 yuan a month, and it is said that one deposit is one payment, and it is very good in all aspects.
Li Du immediately called. The owner of the house was named Freys, and the two parties agreed to inspect the house the next morning.
Andrew didn't send any storage information, and he happened to be fine, so he took Hans to see the house.
Hans drove the car and said: "You are right to call me. I am too familiar with Flagstaff City, man, I am too familiar. I know every guy, so I can give you a lot of advice in terms of character. "
The car arrived quickly. The environment in the community is quiet and the green area is large. The lawns and gardens of every household are neatly arranged.
Looking at the peaceful and beautiful environment inside, Li Du murmured: "The blue night
frosty fog in the sky
Bright moon shines brightly
canopy of pine trees
bent into the blue of snow, lightly
Into the sky, frost, starlight
except for the creak of boots
rabbit tracks, deer tracks
What do we know..."
"What are you muttering about?" Hans asked.
Li Du looked at him in surprise: "You don't know? The crown of the pine tree, the poem I read just now is the crown of the pine tree, and it should be the origin of the name of this community."
Crown of the Pines is one of the masterpieces of Gary Snyder, a great modern American poet. He is known as the master of clear meditation, and his poetry style is indifferent, transparent and full of Zen.
Hans shrugged and said, "Poetry? What the hell is that? I only know pop songs. Well, Unit B in Building 15 is here. Let me see who lives here."
The two knocked on the door, and a muscular young black man came out. Seeing them, the black man subconsciously asked, "Who are you looking for? Oh, Mr. Li from China?"
This person was Freiss. Li Du shook hands with him and felt that his hand was very strong. After holding it, he wanted to retreat, but he didn't.
Frass was a very enthusiastic person. He hugged the two of them into the house and said, "You're welcome, guys. Come and have a look and see if it suits you."
While he was leaving, Li Du asked in a low voice, "Do you know him?"
Hans rarely showed an embarrassing expression: "Uh, I, I, I don't think he looks very familiar."
Freys heard it and said with a smile, "Oh, I've been in Flagstaff City not long ago, less than half a year."
Hans shrugged and said in a low voice, "Look, you can't blame me. I was still in Phoenix half a year ago."
Li Du also shrugged. He looked at the living room and then at the second bedroom, and was quite satisfied. The inside was cleaned up very cleanly, and the items were arranged neatly, which was very much to his liking.
When he passed the master bedroom, he hesitated for a moment, and then put the bug in.
According to his current thinking, he intends to rent this place, but he doesn't know Freys well. To be on the safe side, he wants to release the bug to find out.
As a result, the bug flew into the master bedroom, and he was immediately stunned!
