Zhu Yu asked curiously:
"Where did you learn Chinese?"
"I'm in my hometown." Freya was a little proud: "There were Chinese people in my hometown who built a bridge. I went to help cook, and then I learned some Chinese from them."
I have to say that Freya speaks very standard Chinese.
"Then why don't you continue doing it there?" Zhu Yu asked curiously.
"Because of the war." Freya's tone was filled with sadness. "The Chinese left, half of the bridge was repaired, and then it was blown up... We also lost our home..."
Well, it's a sad story indeed.
Jason waited for Zhu Yu and Freya to finish speaking, then smiled and said:
"Freya is the most beautiful and smartest in our village. It's a pity that there was a war there, and then we came here..."
Zhu Yu didn't ask how Jason and others came here.
He is not a kind person, and he does not have that much energy. Rather than knowing that he cannot help, it is better not to ask.
"By the way, Freya's food is very good, you must try it!" Jason strongly recommended Freya's advantages to Zhu Yu.
Looking at the cooking utensils inside, Zhu Yu had a familiar feeling. Isn't this the one cooking Chinese food?
Thinking that Freya once helped cook in a Chinese company, Zhu Yu understood.
Freya went to cook, and Jason took Eli and Malawi to pick out things that could be used.
No need for Zhu Yu's help at all.
After a while, the meal was ready. Zhu Yu took a look and almost laughed.
A pot of rice and a pot of mushy vegetables - the ones that can be distinguished include potatoes, peppers, unknown meat and the like.
Freya took out the washed bowl, filled Zhu Yu with a full bowl of rice, poured a spoonful of "mushy vegetables" on top, and handed it to him.
Zhu Yu was curious and scooped some with a wooden spoon and put it in his mouth. Unexpectedly, it tasted quite good!
Jason, Eli and Malawi started eating happily.
Freya watched Zhu Yu eat. Zhu Yu raised his wooden spoon and said:
“It tastes good, quite authentic!”
Freya smiled happily.
Not sure whether it was because he was hungry or because it was really delicious, Zhu Yu ate two bowls, then got up and moved around for a while. Seeing that it was almost time, he said to Jason:
"I'm going to the goods yard, will you go?"
"Go, go!" Jason threw the bowl away, turned around and said a few words in native language to the older Eli, and then followed Zhu Yu out.
Zhu Yu waved to Freya, Eli and Malawi and left.
The goods yard we went to this time was only five hundred meters away from where Jason lived, and the two of them arrived quickly.
According to the information obtained in advance, seven containers will be auctioned here, which is a good amount.
Zhu Yu came earlier, and there were only three people on site. The containers had already been laid out. The auctioneer hadn't arrived yet, and the yard owner and his assistant were discussing something.
Zhu Yu was happy to take a good look at these containers while there were few people around.
Standing not too far away, the first container is a pile of porcelain.
Judging from the model, it should be the old-fashioned export porcelain from China at the end of the last century and the beginning of this century.
Zhu Yu was not interested.
In the second container, there were two cardboard boxes outside. One of them looked like a small tire. Although the other one was not covered, the shredded paper on it buried the contents. Zhu Yu could tell at a glance that there were parts inside.
Further inside, the waterproof plastic is tightly covered, with only half of the tire exposed in the upper left corner.
Zhu Yutian looked over and saw thirty or forty tricycles inside.
A more sophisticated tricycle with a rider in the front and two seats in the back. Purely human.
Brand new!
You can definitely take a gamble on this!
The third one contains furniture, which is relatively shabby.
The fourth, fifth and sixth containers are filled with home and travel items. Although they are not as shabby as the second one I bought earlier, they are not very valuable.
In the seventh container, however, there were several boxes containing professional machines. Zhu Yu could only tell from the boxes what mining was written on them.
Looking back, Zhu Yu just felt a little tired.
Tianyan 2.0 is indeed more powerful!
While he was looking at these containers, some treasure hunters came one after another.
What surprised Zhu Yu was that old Madden, Diana and other big guys came over, as well as a few others he didn't know.
These people were a little surprised to see Zhu Yu's presence, but they all came over to say hello.
Zhu Yu is considered a budding newcomer, but the newcomer is very good, so the friendship is very important.
Maybe when will we collaborate?
When everyone arrived, the auctioneer also arrived, so the yard owner asked the auctioneer to start.
The assistant cut the lock of the first container and opened the door. Many people looked disappointed when they saw the contents inside.
However, old Madden, Diana and other big guys were watching intently.
The auctioneer stepped aside to allow those who were planning to bid to come over and take a look.
Zhu Yu also pretended to go over and look at it for a while, and then withdrew.
Helen came over and whispered:
"How's it going? Do you plan on filming?"
Zhu Yu hesitated and said:
"It depends, if the price is right..."
"Then let's cooperate?" Helen whispered, "I think both Madden and Diana want to take the photo, but I'm afraid I can't compete with them."
"No." Zhu Yu shook his head decisively. Helen was an unreliable woman, and he didn't really want to take the photo, so he decisively refused.
A few minutes later, the auctioneer spoke:
"There are a lot of good things in this container. The base price is five hundred US dollars. Each increase will be no less than fifty US dollars. Now the auction starts..."
A tall, fat black man immediately raised his hand: "Six hundred dollars!"
Diana raised her hand: "Seven hundred dollars!"
Helen was not to be outdone:
"Eight hundred dollars!"
…
Soon, the price soared to $1,700.
Something was wrong with Zhu Yu. These are porcelains for export. They only took 20 or 30 years of work. How can they be so expensive?
However, thinking about the news I have seen, the enamel spittoons from the 1980s and 1990s can be sold for tens of dollars. I think these porcelains should be more expensive.
He smiled and raised his hand: "Eighteen hundred dollars!"
Seeing Zhu Yu raise his hand, some people who had never seen him became even more excited:
"Two thousand dollars!" After raising his hand, he raised his chin demonstratively at Zhu Yu.
Zhu Yu laughed angrily.
What is this all about?
Do these people regard themselves as their imaginary enemies?
The price rose to US$3,100. Seeing the number of people bidding, Zhu Yu shouted out a price again:
"Three thousand three hundred dollars!"
After shouting, the place fell silent!
Except for the auctioneer's continuous shouting, no one else raised the price.
Zhu Yu sweated, wouldn't it fall into his hand?
He just confuses others, but he doesn't really want to take it down!
Fortunately, after more than ten seconds of silence, someone immediately started quoting:
"Three thousand five hundred dollars!"
Zhu Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and shrugged, indicating that he would not join.
In the end, the porcelain inside was sold for $6,500, and it was Old Madden who bought the porcelain.
It was really beyond Zhu Yu's expectation.
Next, is the second container that Zhu Yu has chosen.
As soon as the container was opened, many people's eyes widened.
This kind of almost completely covered container is the most exciting thing to gamble on!
