Xu Youyou understood warehouse auctions in the shortest possible time.

It is called a warehouse auction, but in fact it is Taobao. Those who participate in the warehouse auction are also called Taobao people. What are auctioned are not collections, but expired and invalid warehouses.

These warehouses may contain antiques, gold, silver and jewelry, or of course they may all be garbage. After all, the truly valuable things may have already been collected by the warehouse management company.

Xu Youyou soon found out that the latest warehouse auction would be held this afternoon in Upper New York Harbor, with a total of seven warehouses to be auctioned.

The largest warehouse is about 20 cubic meters, about the same size as an ordinary person’s garage.

Xu Youyou looked at the picture. It was filled with a lot of messy things. She thought she might come back empty-handed, but she still wanted to join in the fun.

"Ms. Xu, for this kind of warehouse auction, it's best for you to bring a local with you," the housekeeper reminded.

Xu Youyou understood immediately. After all, this was a free country. A few days ago, a high-end private museum internal purchasing fair almost had an accident. The warehouse auction she was going to today was probably even more brutal.

Xu Youyou not only brought her two original bodyguards, she also hired a local bodyguard for a single day. Seeing the bulge on the other party's waist, which seemed to be in the shape of a gun, Xu Youyou felt that her sense of security had increased a lot.

The warehouse auction site is near the port. Thanks to the booming personal warehouse industry in recent years, many people have rented warehouses but owe rent due to financial reasons. The warehouse management company will auction the items inside on a warehouse basis.

When Xu Youyou arrived, there were already more than 20 Taobao users gathered here. Xu Youyou was not the only Chinese face. She also saw a young Chinese man in the crowd, who looked to be in his early twenties.

When the time came, a staff member from the warehouse management company arrived. Without any polite words, he directly stated the rules of the warehouse auction: "You are only allowed to observe each warehouse for three minutes, no touching allowed, and each bid must not be less than twenty dollars."

After saying that, the staff member took a group of people to the nearest warehouse. After the staff member opened the scroll door, he took out a timer.

More than twenty people were crowded at the door, looking inside. Xu Youyou was squeezed in the crowd, only then did she realize that she had miscalculated.

Unlike her who came empty-handed, everyone else brought tools, such as small searchlights, magnifying glasses, and flashlights. Xu Youyou was almost blinded by all these tools.

"Why don't you bring anything?"

When Xu Youyou heard the poor Mandarin, she turned around and looked at the person who was speaking. It happened to be the young man with a Chinese face that she had seen before.

"I decided to come here at the last minute, so I didn't make any preparations," Xu Youyou explained.

The young man pulled out a worn-out flashlight and said, "You want it? I'll sell it to you for five dollars."

Xu Youyou knew that the person who suddenly spoke to her couldn't be so kind, so she shook her head: "No, I'm just here to join in the fun."

The young man's face was full of regret. He was anxious to see the specific situation in the warehouse and did not continue chatting with Xu Youyou.

Perhaps because of Xu Youyou's Chinese face, the two white people next to her did not deliberately avoid her when they talked.

"I received an inside tip that there's porcelain in a paper box."

“Porcelain is not necessarily an antique.”

"If it's a complete set of porcelain, as long as there's no obvious damage, even if it's not an antique, at least you can get your money back."

"So you decided to shoot it?"

"Let's try it first. If it's within this number, I'll decide to take it down."

Xu Youyou wanted to see what number they were pointing to, but when she turned around, she was met with a fierce stare from them.

Xu Youyou has long known that there is nothing new under the sun. Although on the surface it is an auction method similar to blind boxes, some people have been in this business for a long time and naturally have ways to obtain inside information.

She had no tools and could only use her naked eyes to look at the situation inside.

The warehouse was packed full, with many cardboard boxes stacked on top of each other. Many of the boxes were sealed with instructions, making it even harder to see what was inside.

"The auction begins now. The starting price is one hundred US dollars, and each increase in price cannot be less than twenty US dollars." As soon as the staff member finished speaking, someone immediately started bidding.

It happened to be the Chinese guy who had spoken to Xu Youyou earlier: "One hundred and twenty US dollars."

Soon someone else bid: "One hundred and forty dollars."

Xu Youyou watched the price soar until it reached three hundred dollars.

She looked at the enthusiastic atmosphere and mentally asked the system, "Is there something to be gained here? Why are they all so determined to get it?"

System: [Just some junk, not worth much money.]

Xu Youyou keenly perceived the meaning behind its words: "Tongbao, without big money, is it worth small money?"

[Don't call me that, it's corny! ]

But it still replied to Xu Youyou: [About $6,000.]

Hearing this, Xu Youyou quickly joined the auction: "Four hundred dollars!"

The scene fell silent, and everyone looked at her strangely.

She raised the price by a hundred dollars at a time, which in their eyes was breaking the rules.

"Yellow pig, go back to your country, you are not welcome here!"

The person who spoke was a young white man with freckles on his face standing next to Xu Youyou.

Xu Youyou's bodyguards wanted to step forward to deal with the man, but Xu Youyou stopped them and frowned at the freckled man and said, "Apologize to me for your inappropriate words and actions."

When the freckled man heard this, he pointed at Xu Youyou and laughed: "The yellow-skinned pig is angry. He really thinks this is..."

Xu Youyou reached out and grabbed the other person's finger, then pulled him, causing him to trip and fall flat on his face.

"Apologize!" Xu Youyou said viciously.

The freckled man was shocked when he saw her posture.

"Tom, how can you be so useless that you can't even beat a little girl?" The people around him laughed at him.

There was a hint of fear in Tom's eyes: "She knows Chinese Kung Fu!"

After all, he was the only one who knew how much strength Xu Youyou had used to hold him back just now.

Xu Youyou acted as if she was going to kick him again.

The freckled man was really scared: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that."

Xu Youyou didn't argue with him anymore.

The staff member watched the dispute cease before asking, "Four hundred dollars, is there anyone who can offer a higher price than this lady?"

"Four hundred and twenty dollars." The person who made the bid this time was standing next to the freckled man.

Xu Youyou remembered that the two of them seemed to be in the same group, and this man was indeed looking at Xu Youyou with a provocative look at this time.

Xu Youyou is now worth 700 million yuan, so how could she care about such a small amount of money? She shouted loudly on the spot: "Five hundred!"

She bid five hundred dollars, but she acted like she was bidding five million.
