First, lift out the old Maxim machine gun from under the cloth.
The thick water-cooled barrel looks like it is made of brass, and it feels very fierce.
The tripod is iron black, without any rust.
It's very heavy and seems to have been specially made.
After putting this outside, Zhu Yu began to move the boxes out one by one.
Now his strength is not small, at least much stronger than before in China.
I opened a box and found that the bottom of the box was lined with sawdust and two shotguns - or were they old-fashioned rifles?
It's the kind that's really old and feels like a flintlock gun.
Zhu Yu picked up a stick and aimed it at the sky at an angle of 45 degrees. It felt very good and weighty.
At least this wood, Zhu Yu recognized as walnut, was very delicately made.
It feels like a real gun, but a collector-grade real gun.
It's a pity that it is a prop after all.
As soon as Zhu Yu took out the machine gun and shotgun, he immediately attracted the attention of many people!
Although the auction of the container is over, most people have not left yet. They are waiting here just to see what treasures can be found in the container.
It is both a gain in experience and a gain in knowledge.
As soon as they saw Zhu Yu's gun coming out, many people immediately gathered around. Thomas said in surprise:
"Is it a real gun? This should be very valuable!"
"If it's a real gun and it's in such good condition, it's worth at least $50,000!" Madden added with regret on his face.
Thomas and everyone else looked surprised!
If this is true, Zhu Yu can earn nearly 40,000 US dollars from just this container!
Two hundred and forty thousand soft sister coins, many people can't earn it in a year!
Next to him, Todd was also in the crowd. He said sourly:
"I think it's definitely not true!"
I nodded and said:
"It's indeed not real, it's a prop."
"It turns out to be a prop!" Todd immediately became happy, "Not to mention fifty thousand dollars, maybe five thousand dollars is not worth it, right? Hahahaha!"
Seeing him gloating about his misfortune, some people laughed and cheered, but a few frowned.
Everyone is friendly and seeks wealth, and such people are not liked by everyone.
Old Madden came over, picked up another shotgun, looked at it carefully, and then said slowly:
"Since it's a prop, it's definitely not worth fifty thousand dollars."
Todd laughed even louder.
"However, such a well-made prop has collectible value. Even if the price is low, it can still be worth more than 30,000 US dollars!"
Todd's laughter stopped abruptly!
Thirty thousand dollars!
After excluding expenses, this Chinese guy made a net profit of US$17,500!
A lot of money!
"Shit!" Todd cursed, turned around and left with a dark face.
Others also looked envious or jealous.
But this kind of thing is very common among treasure hunters.
If you have good vision and good luck, you can win big with small things.
Who can survive in the treasure hunter team for a long time without having the experience of picking something up once or twice?
The crowd slowly dispersed, and Lao Madeng asked Zhu Yu:
"How about it? Do you want to sell it? I'll take it for $30,000!"
Zhu Yu shook his head and said with a smile:
"Thank you, but I have an agreement with Old John that everything must go through his hands first."
Old Madden said regretfully:
"Old John's investment is really visionary! Zhu, you are very lucky, congratulations!"
After saying that, he went to pack his things.
Zhu Yu continued to move things from the container, and there were also some old military uniforms, which were clearly worn.
Bullet bag, water bottle, gun maintenance parts, almost a complete set.
After moving all the things out and placing them neatly, Zhu Yu called John.
"What? A collectible prop gun? Take a photo and let me see it."
Zhu Yu took a photo and sent it, and then started sorting out the trash.
He felt more and more that he needed to buy a car.
He has taken a liking to the Ford Raptor and plans to buy a second-hand one first.
It is more convenient whether running, hauling goods or cleaning.
There wasn't a lot of garbage here, so Zhu Yu was free after working for a while.
He found that most people had already started loading up their cars and leaving, and even Todd had contacted the garbage man.
Container treasure hunters usually only take valuable items, and those that are not valuable are either cleaned up and thrown into the trash, or they are asked to be collected by specialized personnel.
For example, someone collects old clothes and worthless second-hand electronic products.
Zhu Yu simply turned on the camera and took a video. He planned to do a live broadcast when he had time. I think some people in China should watch it.
Todd took the oven and sold the rest to a rag picker for a hundred dollars.
Zhu Yu subconsciously looked at those things with his heavenly eyes, and then his eyes widened!
I didn't pay close attention when I looked at it before, but I didn't expect that there were actually good things among the garbage!
He quickly walked over and said to the rag picker:
"I'm short of a steel pipe here. How about you sell me that? Ten dollars!"
The rag picker subconsciously paid back the price:
"No, at least twenty dollars!"
Twenty dollars?
If it is an ordinary steel pipe, it will only cost a few dollars!
But these people are used to raising prices when others need it.
Zhu Yu didn't counter-offer and handed over twenty dollars. Although the man was a little confused and felt that his bid might be low, he already said the words, so he took the money and gave the tube to Zhu Yu.
Todd was walking out with the oven in his arms. When he saw Zhu Yu spending twenty dollars on steel pipes, he immediately laughed and said:
"Zhu, Huaxia boy, do you have a lot of money? But you would pay twenty dollars for a steel pipe that costs three or four dollars. How stupid!"
Madden and Helen next to them felt that Zhu Yu's move was not simple.
But Zhu Yu ignored Todd.
He felt that Todd was a mad dog who was always staring at him and was probably a racist.
"What's wrong? Did I say it right? Don't you dare to say anything back?"
Seeing that Zhu Yu didn't speak, Todd became even more proud: "Yellow boy, this is not the place you should stay. Go back to your country! You are not welcome here!"
Zhu Yu put away his cell phone, put down the steel pipe, stepped forward and punched Todd in the face!
Todd was directly knocked out!
Flying in the air with an expression of disbelief on his face!
How dare you hit me?
Zhu Yu retracted his hand and said harshly to Todd who rolled to the ground:
"If you dare to talk like this again, I will make your face look as rotten as a peach blossom next time!"
Then he picked up the steel pipe and shook it at Todd. Todd thought he was going to hit himself with the steel pipe and immediately stepped back.
Zhu Yu said contemptuously:
"Do you know? This steel pipe is worth at least five hundred dollars! You are just stupid and can't see its value!"
This time, several treasure hunters who were still nearby—Madden, Helen, etc.—came over quickly.
"You said there is something in here?" Madden asked in surprise.
"I think so." Zhu Yu had already thought of his words: "Look, the two ends of this steel pipe are sealed, and the color is slightly different. So I guess there must be something hidden inside!"
Seeing Zhu Yu's determination, these people became even more interested!
"Absolutely impossible!" Todd had already stood up and wiped his nose behind him. He absolutely did not believe that Zhu Yu would pick up the leak in his hand!
