Chapter 716: Dodge Viper

The auctioneer said: "One thousand dollars for the first time, one thousand dollars for the second time, and one thousand dollars sold!"
After finishing talking, the auctioneer directly recorded the transaction situation on the book, and handed Xiao Peng a lock, and asked Xiao Peng to lock the warehouse door again-this warehouse belonged to Xiao Peng.
With a helpless expression on his face, Xiao Peng locked the door, and followed the auctioneer to the last two warehouses, which was also the highlight of this auction: the medium-sized warehouse.
"Boy Huaxia, tell you the first rule of survival in Star-Stripe Nation, that is, don't do things with the aboriginal people. The so-called pig teammates are talking about them." Condon looked smug and wanted to see Xiao Peng's face depressed. Emoji.
Who knows that Xiao Peng is not only not depressed, but instead asks Condon with a smile instead of a smile: "Is it really what you said? To be honest, I really appreciate you letting out this warehouse. If you get rich, I will ask you to smoke." Thank you for a cigarette."
"Cut, what a dream! Such a broken box can save the cost? I curse that there are broken tiles in it! Your thousand yuan is equivalent to making up for the wine money I paid last night!"
Because the auctioneer was on the sidelines, the treasure hunters still did not dare to conflict, or they would really be kicked out of the auction site, so the two sides still exercised restraint, and there was no direct conflict. After all, the highlight of this auction is here: two medium-sized warehouses, this is the purpose of those professional Taobao people, so the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
The auctioneer is also very experienced. He walked to the door of the warehouse and said: "What everyone is looking forward to today is these two medium-sized warehouses. Now is the time to uncover their mystery. Let us see what surprises there are!"
After the auctioneer finished speaking, everyone looked at him nervously, waited for him to open the door and lift the rolling shutter. . . . . . Everyone sighed together.
This warehouse is big enough, but there is almost nothing in it. Obviously someone has moved the valuables away from the warehouse. Only a few cardboard boxes are piled up in the corners. Small LED bulbs and drawing paper are scattered on the floor. The big warehouse looks Empty.
The auctioneer was also a little embarrassed, and said:
Everyone is 30 seconds long, everyone line up to observe carefully. Well, the original owner of this warehouse opened a mobile phone accessories company here, and later the company moved away, and this warehouse has been Stay here, everyone, take a closer look, maybe there are any surprises!"
"Surprise? What kind of surprise can there be here? It requires careful observation? Isn't everything clear?" Sean walked to the door of the warehouse, flashlight illuminating the carton in the corner: "What is that? Phone case? Xiao , You just gave me a mobile phone case, there are a few boxes of mobile phone cases over there? Is it mobile phone case day recently?" On the top of the box, there are some mobile phone cases scattered around, or old mobile phone cases without outer packaging, some It's still broken.
Xiao Peng shrugged and said nothing. Everyone looked at the warehouse and sighed. Martin said, "The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment."
Xiao Peng lowered his head and held the phone, and whispered beside them, "Take it."
Martin and Sean were taken aback and looked at Xiao Peng. Xiao Peng nodded without speaking.
"Is there no one bidding for such a large warehouse? The reserve price is fifty dollars! This is the lowest starting price for a medium-sized warehouse. Is anyone bidding?" After watching everyone observe the warehouse, the auctioneer shouted, "It turns out that the renters here are a group of young people. , I used this warehouse to build a studio to produce mobile phone accessories and so on. I heard that I have made a fortune now, and moved from here to Irvine to set up a large company. Maybe there is still some valuable goods left here. Yeah!"
"Move from here to Irvine? Let's not make up the story, okay? Take a step back and tell it, even if they really get rich, it is a fact that this warehouse is full of rubbish!"
"Fifty?" Condon shouted, "Fifty shots an empty warehouse? Are our brains flooded? Such a pile of let us be cleaners? I will not do this job after paying fifty dollars! Go directly to the next one. Warehouse."
The auctioneer thought for a while: "Thirty dollars! Where are there a few boxes of mobile phone cases?"
Someone heard the auctioneer's words and directly shouted: "Mobile phone cases? Who are the broken phone cases sold to? Should they be sold as plastic? Then someone has to buy them! Dude, now Huaxia people don’t collect garbage. Now, our country’s garbage disposal fees have risen astonishingly, so let’s not waste time here."
Martin thought for a while: "Ten dollars, I'll take it!"
Xiao Peng and Sean both looked at Martin with a surprised look: "Martin, what did you do to photograph this shit?"
Martin smiled and said, "I just want to change the phone case, what if there is something useful in it?"
Xiao Peng mumbled: "At that moment, you clean up yourself, don't expect me to help you work!"
The auctioneer also laughed after hearing this: "Anyone else wants to bid? Anything else? Okay, this warehouse is yours!"
"Garbage man is only worthy of shooting garbage!" Condon laughed.
The auctioneer was probably because Martin helped him solve the problem of clearing the warehouse, and his words were biased towards Martin. He only glared at Condon: "If you make trouble like this again, be careful I will drive you out of the auction!"
When Condon heard this, he made a zipper action to his mouth, indicating that he would not speak. The auctioneer nodded and directly handed the lock to Martin, and the group came to the last warehouse.
When the warehouse door opened, everyone whistled: "This is so developed!"
"Xiete! That's the Viper! The 89 Viper! I love this car!"
There is really much material in this warehouse! It's nothing else but a car! It looks like three cars, two of which are covered by a covering, and what is exposed from the covering are two real sports car tires. There is also a streamlined sports car without any obstructions on the outside. Everyone looked at it and it was impressive. Dodge Viper! There are still some shelves in the warehouse, and there are some messy sundries on the shelves. Xiao Peng saw a lot of measuring tools, such as arcmeters and long rulers.
"This warehouse must be photographed!" Sean said excitedly.
"Dodge Viper, this is the pride of the Stars and Stripes Nation!" Sean stood dancing at the door of the warehouse.
When the men on the scene saw the Dodge Viper, their eyes were full of brilliance.
Speaking of supercars, many people first think of European sports cars such as Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Porsche. In fact, the people of Stars and Stripes have their own pride! Ford GT, Chevrolet Corvette and Dodge Viper are known as the Big Three of the Stars and Stripes. However, the youngest and the shortest-lived is the Dodge Viper.
Unlike the previous two decades of history, the Dodge Viper was a model that only appeared in 1989. The goal was to be a sports car that can be consumed by young people. It was equipped with the classic 8.0L from the beginning. The V10 large-displacement engine, with violent horsepower and extremely fast acceleration, immediately won the fans' wild support, especially its exaggerated personality, which is more suitable for the aesthetics of young people.
However, with the economic crisis of the new era and the requirements of regulations for energy saving and emission reduction, Chrysler, the parent company of Dodge Motors, went through bankruptcy protection. Dodge Viper was suspended for a period of time. It was not until Chrysler passed the crisis that Viper was re-emerged.
However, the development of the Viper is contrary to the needs of the times. Although Dodge Company adopted methods such as price reduction, sales were still dismal, and finally stopped production altogether. The current Dodge Viper is even more a sentiment for the people of Stars and Stripes.
Xiao Peng looked at Sean and took a flashlight in front of the car: "Sien, have you seen anything?"
Sean looked at the place where Xiao Peng shined: "Xiete, what can I see like this? I can't see anything!"
Xiao Peng nodded, called the two aside, and whispered: "The problem is that you can't see anything. That means there is nothing in it! I noticed this warehouse. There are no accessories such as engines. Where did it go? How much can an empty shell cost? And there are many measuring tools, but there are no disassembly tools such as wrenches. Don’t you think there is a problem here? And the two covered cars, I Do you suspect that it is not a car? Have you noticed that there are residual sludge and wooden boards on the ground. I suspect that the two covered cars are not real cars, but full-scale sludge models!"
Clay models are car models made of industrial sludge and wood boards. Early car body models used plaster and wood as materials. Wooden models are expensive and require high standards of producers. Gypsum models are cheap but low in strength. Easy to modify and long-term preservation. Later, people began to apply industrial sludge to automobile design and development models. Now for almost all world-renowned automobile companies, making sludge models is a very important part of the design process. All automobile design drawings are the first finished product. , Almost all of them are sludge models, and even in many auto shows, most of the concept cars we see are 1:1 sludge car models, with real tires installed, just look at the exterior, and look exactly like real cars.
After hearing Xiao Peng's words, Sean frowned: "Xiao, are you sure?" Xiao Peng nodded.
Sean smiled strangely: "I know what to do."
The auctioneer also had confidence at this time: "It seems that the good things are only the last to appear. This warehouse is worthy of everyone's expectations. Look at the first Dodge Viper in 1989! How beautiful is this line? To show our company's Sincerely, we will give you the most suitable auction reserve price: 1,000 US dollars, with at least 500 US dollars each time! Everyone is willing to bid!"
This is also the confidence of the auctioneer. The reserve price of one thousand dollars is really low and cannot be lowered, but the final transaction price is definitely more than this price. Sure enough, Sean directly raised his hand: "Ten thousand dollars!"
Someone directly next to him began to curse: "Damn it, do you seem to be rich? Did you raise the price like that? This is just a Viper, and it doesn't cost so much money to buy a new one!" Obviously understand the auto market. After the Dodge Viper experienced the production suspension, the latest Viper IV launched at a price of only 15,000 meters of gold! I can't sell it just like that.
Sean triumphantly said: "If you want to bid! Don't talk nonsense if you can't afford it, this is not the fourth generation of Viper! This is the first Viper in 1989! Now Viper is out of production, every Viper I will enter the museum in the future! Besides, this is not one, but three! Look at the two blindfolded cars, how long are the fronts? Either a Viper or a Challenger! What's wrong with my price?"
To say that Sean's price is actually very knowledgeable. If this price is only for one car, the price is on the high side, but for three cars, the price becomes very low. If only sold as second-hand cars, it would be no problem for three Vipers to sell for 20,000 to 30,000 meters of gold, and he was right. The 1989 Viper is indeed very commemorative, and many car fans now leave one. Collection.
Let him say that, everyone came back to their senses, yes, these are three cars, aren't they? Someone directly bid: "11,000 US dollars" "11,500 US dollars!"
Sean still wanted to make an offer, but Xiao Peng dragged him: "We only have 14,000 meters of gold here."
Sean was taken aback: "How come? Didn't we bring fifteen thousand meters of gold?"
Xiao Peng said: "Did you forget? We just spent a thousand meters in gold!"
"Oh Shet! This Condon!" Sean yelled, "How much do we have here? Fourteen thousand right? This must be taken down. This is a chance to make a lot of money! The 1989 Viper is very If there is a market, you can easily sell for 8,000 to 10,000 meters of gold, how can you make money!"
When he said this, he had a pair of eyes looking at him.
"Fourteen thousand meters of gold!" Sean hadn't bid yet. Someone had already quoted the price. Several people looked at it, but it was Condon.
"Conton! Did you mean it?" Sean glared at Condon.
Condon said triumphantly: "Isn't it what you just said? Just bid if you want, and shut up if you can't afford it! Poor ghosts, storage auctions are not where you should be! Here, it's not who has the big fist. It's not someone who drinks well, it depends on this." Condon proudly patted his pockets: "Dollar! After all, this is an auction. Whoever has a thicker wallet will have the final say!"
What more Sean wanted to say, Xiao Peng shook his head: "Forget it, he was right. Here, the real winner is the last laugh."
After finishing talking, Xiao Peng looked at Conton with his most sincere eyes: "My friend from Star Stripes, I sincerely bless you, I hope you can laugh at the end!"
"How do I think you are laughing at me?" Condon looked at Xiao Peng and asked, "But I didn't see how you were blessing me."
"Who said that, look at my sincere eyes, have you seen it?" Xiao Peng looked at Conton, his eyes blinking desperately.
Emilia poked Xiao Peng on the side: "Xiao Peng, from your eyes, the emotion of'sincere' is really invisible, you can only see shit."
Xiao Peng "... Emilia, which end are you from?"
