Chapter 237: Chapter 213: Dare to Gamble?
As Jason was checking the items in the container, Sean asked him to send a team of helpers over.
Before the helpers arrived, Jason had already finished checking everything.
He came out and clapped his hands, telling Sean:
"Mr. Knight, this set of standard five-lane mini bowling alley equipment is complete. As long as you find a suitable location, you can set up a venue."
Sean nodded.
He guessed that Jason had more to say.
"However, because it’s small, this kind of bowling alley is only suitable for small places, or private family use, so the value won’t be very high."
"Then give me a price," Sean asked directly.
At this time, the helpers had already arrived.
Sean pointed at the helpers and said:
"If the price is right, I’ll have them move the items for you now."
Jason didn’t expect Sean to have a group of people to help move the items.
He knew that labor costs in the US are not cheap.
"In that case... 45,000 dollars. I can accept."
Jason tentatively threw out a price.
"Fifty-thousand dollars," Sean thought there was still room for bargaining, not for himself, but for Joanna.
Joanna had thought that Sean would just agree directly because of his wealth.
To her surprise, Sean actually haggled too.
Jason looked troubled, with fifty-thousand dollars, he wouldn’t earn much.
But considering that so many people were helping move the items and the efficiency would be high, he gritted his teeth and said:
"Fine, but I won’t pay for the loading fees!"
"No problem, deal!" Sean smiled and extended his hand.
Onlookers saw Sean easily make a profit of fifty-thousand dollars, with a remaining net profit of 31,000 dollars, which made them envious!
When it was time for Jason to pay, Sean pushed Joanna out:
"The items were won by this beautiful girl, let her collect the money."
Joanna’s vanity was greatly satisfied!
Money wasn’t the main issue, but Sean’s thoughtful approach made her feel valued.
How nice!
Under Jason’s command, the helpers moved the items, while Sean and a delighted Joanna went to the third container and opened the door.
Two helpers with a good sense of timing volunteered to move the items, taking out the second-hand fishing gear one by one and placing it outside.
Then the items inside, covered with waterproof cloth, were revealed.
A lot of the onlookers began to speculate.
"Could there be a fishing boat inside?"
"I think it might be a water scooter!"
"Is it possible that it’s a pickup truck for fishing?"
No matter which option, they were all envious — because all the items they listed had a value far beyond what Sean had paid.
But considering Sean’s strength, they extinguished their greedy thoughts.
Instead, they wanted to befriend Sean — if they could get a bit of "Lucky Sean’s" fortune, they’d be able to do well in the container auctions and make a fortune.
So they were always smiling and being polite to Sean.
Sean was a little impatient, so he simply went inside the container with Joanna, and the two of them lifted the waterproof cloth together.
When they saw that there was a small yacht inside, many onlookers gasped!
Their imagination was limited, and they hadn’t thought of a small yacht!
Even a small yacht would have a market value of at least over 100,000 dollars!
Even if it was second-hand, given the size of this yacht, it would be worth at least 100,000 dollars!
Many people even swallowed hard!
The bowling alley was not a big deal just now.
But several tens of thousands of dollars, although not seen daily in the New York Port, could still be seen occasionally.
Which of those auction big shots doesn’t win one or two containers like that in a month?
However, winning over 100,000 dollars at once was rare!
Some newcomers hadn’t even seen it before!
At this time, Jason had arranged for the transportation of the bowling alley and came over to say goodbye to Sean.
But when his eyes saw the yacht in front of Sean, they couldn’t look away!
Sean didn’t mind and was discussing the yacht’s performance with Joanna.
Jason leaned in and asked:
"Did you just get this yacht out? How is it? Can it run?"
Sean shook his head and said:
"I haven’t checked yet, but I think it should. It seems well maintained."
Jason tentatively said:
"I know a bit about yachts, do you want me to go up and take a look?"
"Sure, no problem." Sean didn’t care.
Having just made a fifty-thousand-dollar deal, he could afford to give some face.
Jason happily went forward, checking the yacht’s exterior first.
While checking, he said:
"Mr. Knight, this yacht is indeed as you said, very well maintained. There are hardly any scratches on the outside, and no trace of repairs."
After that, he used a ladder to climb onto the yacht, carefully checking and saying:
"The facilities on the yacht are all in good condition, and maintenance has been performed before shipment, with oil applied."
As he spoke, Jason went down to the driver’s cockpit and saw a document bag. He opened it and laughed:
"Look, all the documents for the yacht are here — it’s not a black yacht."
Without documents, it would be difficult to sell, and it could be considered stolen goods.
Sean boarded the yacht first, then helped Joanna up.
Although the yacht was not tall, it was wide and luxuriously decorated, looking very new. Some key parts even had protective covers.
