Chapter 1: Initial manifestation of supernatural power (Ch 1)

Li Yang walked out of the tall building carrying a storage box, and turned to look at the traffic on the street, as if he was out of tune with this world.

Yes, he brought shame to the time travelers, but it was not his fault. He had just recovered his memories of his past life last night.

But before he could be happy, God played a joke on him!

He was laid off the next day because the company’s business performance in the past six months was too poor and it could only relieve pressure by laying off employees.

Unfortunately, Li Yang became one of the people who were laid off. Screw your American dream, screw your Wall Street, I won’t serve you anymore!

If I am not welcome here, there will be other places that will welcome me!

As a time traveler, how could he be suffocated to death by urine? Are you kidding me? I wanted to get along with you guys as an ordinary person?

But what I got in return was layoffs. I’m not going to pretend anymore. I’m going to show my cards. However, after scratching my head, I still didn’t say anything so childish!

Li Yang held the storage box and walked towards the second-hand car he bought in the parking lot. He took out the key, opened the car door, and threw the box into the back seat.

Li Yang drove directly back to his rented house. When he was almost home, he passed by a warehousing company.

At this time, there were twenty or thirty people gathered at the door of the warehousing company, chatting and laughing there.

Thinking that he also had a grocery warehouse here, Li Yang stepped on the brakes, then got out of the car and walked towards the crowd.

He was very familiar with this scene. It was obvious that there was a warehouse auction here today.

When he was in college, he read many treasure hunting novels, all of which were about people who made their fortunes from scratch by selling warehouses and auctions.

Unfortunately, he was not the protagonist at that time and did not have special powers. He always returned disappointed and bought some useless garbage.

In the end, it would cost a lot of money to clean up the warehouse. After so many times, Li Yang gave up this business.

But today is different. As the saying goes, if you fail at work, you will succeed at the casino! I will try my luck today no matter what!

Most of the people gathered here live nearby and are here to join in the fun and see if there are any bargains to be had.

The rest are professional treasure hunters who try to profit from auctions, and the rest are gamblers who are eager to get rich overnight through auctions.

Haha, I thought I was one of them, so I bought a lot of treasure appraisal books to refresh myself, but unfortunately…

“Hi, Li! Why are you here at this time?” As soon as I walked to the door of the storage company, someone came up to say hello.

Li Yang took a look and found that it was Jack who lived in the same building.

“I’m unemployed, so I came here to take a look!” Li Yang responded with a shrug.

“Oh God, that’s so unfortunate!” Jack said regretfully.

“What about you? Come here to pan for gold?” Li Yang asked with a smile.

“Hey, you know the job, so come and see if there are any good second-hand goods. Of course, it would be even better if you can make some money!” Jack rubbed his hands and said with shining eyes.

As they were talking, the auctioneer from the warehousing company came out, clapped his hands and began to read aloud the auction rules.

“Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Today, six warehouses are up for auction. Cash only.”

“The cash in your pocket is the upper limit of the quotation. You cannot go to the ATM or bank to withdraw money. And most importantly, you cannot enter the warehouse. Do you understand?”

“ok.ok!” Everyone already knows these rules.

“Please come in, I declare that the warehouse auction begins now!” After saying that, the auctioneer led everyone into the warehousing company.

In addition, there were three staff members following, one was responsible for recording the auction price, another was carrying hydraulic pliers and was responsible for opening the warehouse, and another was responsible for maintaining order on the scene.

The first item to be auctioned was Warehouse No. 112. Everyone rushed in and blocked the warehouse door.

“Click!” The staff member cut the warehouse padlock neatly and opened the warehouse. He was so skilled that he couldn’t be more skilled.

“Ok, everyone, keep order. I repeat, you are not allowed to enter the warehouse. You have five minutes in total, and each person can stay at the door for no more than ten seconds. Do you understand?”

The auctioneer reiterated the rules loudly, then stood by the door to supervise everyone.

“Ah~!” Everyone shouted excitedly.

Then he began to move towards the door, taking advantage of the situation to observe the items in the warehouse and secretly estimate their prices.

From the way these people check the warehouse and the equipment, you can roughly tell which ones are professionals and which ones are just there for fun.

Treasure hunters usually work in groups of two or three, carrying high-powered flashlights that are as big as searchlights and can almost blind your eyes.

They looked very carefully within the specified time, and even for those objects they could not see, they would make a rough prediction and assessment.

They would not leave unless the auctioneer asked them to leave loudly.

Then they gathered together and discussed in a low voice so that everyone could summarize the information and make a relatively accurate estimate.

They set a psychological price, and if it exceeds the psychological price, they will stop immediately. They are not like gamblers who have no bottom line.

As for those who just want to join in the fun, it’s all based on their preferences.

It is simple for gamblers. They only look at the money in their pockets and the performance in the warehouse. Their wins and losses depend on luck.

Li Yang also stood at the door, using the tactical high-intensity flashlight he carried with him to carefully look at the situation in the warehouse.

“Damn it, I hate this kind of warehouse the most~!” Li Yang cursed in his heart.

It was no different from a full gambling warehouse, with only a few items exposed to the outside visible, and the rest was covered under felt.

However, from the side of the felt cloth, one could vaguely see a wooden box with a corner exposed. Li Yang shook his head. He had suffered many losses from this before.

I wish I could see what’s inside. This thought just flashed through my mind.

Li Yang found that the scene in front of him had changed. The felt cloth seemed to become transparent in his sight, and then the same happened to the wooden box underneath.

The mechanical parts inside appeared directly in Li Yang’s eyes, and Li Yang could tell at a glance that these were motorcycle parts.

“What nonsense! Who can’t recognize the frame?”

Li Yang’s pupils shrank slightly, and before he could feel surprised, he saw a red light flashing in the corner of his eye.

I quickly shifted my gaze and found that it was an antique gun. To be honest, I had fired a lot of bullets during these years abroad.

But if you talk about his familiarity with guns, he is not that good. The reason why he could recognize it as an antique gun is very simple.

Because he had never seen a gun of this shape in a gun store, so if it wasn’t an antique gun, what else could it be?

However, why the gun emits red light remains to be verified. I don’t know if it is the same as what Li Yang thought.
