Starting My Treasure Hunting In England

The next three warehouses are also of this type with all their contents on the outside, and they have all been bought by some locals.

Because compared to outsiders, the auction prices of warehouses that put all items on the open side are almost always transparent, and only locals can make profits from it.

Soon the auction arrived at the warehouse, which was full of boxes and oil-paper packages. At this time, everyone suddenly became cautious. Because compared to the auction just now, the current auction is more like gambling.

"Okay, now is the fifth warehouse we are auctioning today." Finally, half an hour later, it was the auction's turn to the warehouse that Liang En was paying attention to before.

"The starting price is still 10,000 euros, and the price increases by 1,000 each time. Does anyone want to offer 11,000 euros?" Liang En immediately raised his hand to indicate, and then the auctioneer pointed at him and said, "Okay, now it is 11,000 euros. Is anyone willing to offer more?" High price?."

Whispers immediately came from behind. Obviously, not everyone discovered the mark during the observation just now, so everyone was hesitant about whether to take a gamble.

"Me!" At this time, the only woman present raised her hand, and it could be heard from her accent that she was also a non-local.

Obviously, traveling thousands of miles to get here and then returning empty-handed is unacceptable to many outsiders, so naturally some people are willing to take the risk and take a gamble.

"Very good, it's already 12,000 euros now." The middle-aged man who hosted the auction immediately waved his arms and started to heat up the atmosphere. For him, it was too bad to have only one buyer, so he naturally heard that there was competition. I got excited.

"Okay, now it's 12,000 euros. 12,000 euros. The next bid is 12,000 euros. Who is willing to follow?"

"I'll keep following you." Liang En shouted in a German accent that was very standard but basically no one used in broadcasting. Then he shrugged in a rather American way and muttered, "It took a whole day of driving to get here. I don’t want to go back with an empty car again.”

"Then it's now 13,000 euros. 13,000 euros. This is a low price. Who is willing to increase it to 13,000 euros." After hearing Liang En's offer to continue, the auctioneer immediately shouted loudly.

It’s just that compared to the previous auctions, everyone needs to be much more cautious this time. Because compared with the previous warehouses, this warehouse can reveal too little information.

Considering that a warehouse has a minimum reserve price of 10,000 euros, everyone will think twice before bidding and observe the attitudes of those around them.

In the end, when Liang En raised the auction price of the warehouse to 15,000 euros, no one continued to bid.

Because no one knew whether those boxes were empty or full, and those oil paper packages were wrapped too tightly, so it was impossible to see what was inside.

Of course, Liang En's stupid temperament also intimidated many people. Because for everyone, coming here to auction is to seek wealth rather than anger, so they feel there is no need to fight with a stupid young man like him.

After asking a few more questions quickly, the auctioneer, who found that no one was following up, pointed at Liang En and said, "Okay, now this warehouse is yours."

Compared with previous warehouses with an average price of more than 20,000 euros, this warehouse can be said to be significantly cheaper. When it came time to pay, Liang En paid 10,000 euros, while Pierce and his son paid another 5,000 euros.

Because Liang En is more optimistic about this warehouse, he naturally spends more money to obtain a larger share of future profits.

But at the next warehouse, everyone suddenly became energetic.

Because although this warehouse was also covered with oilcloth, a corner of one of the oilcloths was lifted up for some reason, revealing the wooden box underneath.

These green wooden boxes, which look a little mottled on the outside, but look very well preserved overall, are obviously boxes used to transport weapons.

If you consider that the warehouse itself belongs to the army, then everyone can basically guess the contents of the boxes in these warehouses.

In an instant, a crazy bidding contest began. After just two attempts, Liang En and the others were eliminated from the bidding circle.

Because they found that after just a few price calls, the price at the warehouse exceeded their entire budget for this trip. In the end, the warehouse was bought by a strong-looking local man for 63,000 euros.

However, the next warehouse passed the auction because the entire warehouse was clean except for a few things covered by canvas in the corner. It looked impossible to be worth 10,000 euros anyway.

After the auction ended, those who didn't get anything cursed and drove away. The person who won something at the auction backed his car to the door and prepared to load the goods, blocking the view of others.

Under the push of Liang En and Pierce, the large iron door slowly moved sideways along the track, revealing a warehouse that looked as huge as an indoor basketball court.

"Okay, take off the lights first." Old Pierce parked the car at the door at this time, and then asked two young people to put the LED headlights he had prepared previously from the container behind the car on several commanding heights in the warehouse. .

After the lights were placed, Old Pierce pressed the remote control in his hand. In an instant, the entire warehouse was illuminated as bright as day.

Everyone standing at the door could clearly see the load-bearing columns and beams of the reinforced concrete structure in the warehouse, as well as the old-looking electric lights on the roof.

On the ground, the cracked cement floor had accumulated a lot of dust. After being blown by the wind outside after opening the door, it suddenly rose from the ground and dispersed in the air.

I have to say this is good news. Because compared to a humid environment, a dry environment makes it easier to preserve the contents inside.

The three people, who put on gas masks and work clothes, began to walk along the gap and opened the oil paper bags and boxes one by one to check the contents inside.

"Red scarf, blue scarf, red scarf -" After opening a dozen oil-paper bags in a row, Liang En found a whole row of brand-new, neatly stacked red or blue scarves on the shelf.

Looking at the packaging and specific conditions of these scarves, it seems that they were stuffed into this warehouse without ever being used after they were produced.

"It's the same here. Each box contains ten wooden signs, and each wooden sign has a German letter on it. These should be the placards used by those people to form slogans when they marched." There was also something in Pierce's tone. With frustration.

Indeed, there will always be people who are willing to collect these items with period characteristics, but in any case, this is a very niche collection. And now the volume found by Liang En and Pierce is almost equivalent to the entire Europe's annual shipments.

These low-value items obviously made everyone feel depressed, but everyone still carefully turned over the oil paper bags and wooden boxes one by one.

Because according to what Old Pierce just said, based on his experience accumulated from decades of treasure hunting, only boxes used to store some important items will be painted with various emblems.

Sure enough, when flipping through the oil paper bags on the second shelf, Liang En discovered something different.

"——This is blue again...wait?" After seeing another blue textile in the package, Liang En sighed and was about to flip through it twice before opening the next oil paper package, but after flipping it with his hand, Some golden tassels peeked out.

"I seem to have found some flags, Mr. Murphy." Liang En shouted loudly after unfolding the piece of fabric. "Can you see what these flags are about?"
