The auction was about to begin. Li Du represented the school and brought the young group leaders to join in the bidding.
Li Du said, "Now, we should have a valuation for the warehouse. Based on what we found inside, there's only one item that we found valuable, which is the cigar box. However, we are still not completely sure about what exactly it is, or what is inside. Hence, we need an estimated valuation…"
Some treasure hunters kept their eyes on him. Li Du laughed. Then he gathered the students closer and continued the discussion in a softer voice.
The auctioneer, who was wearing white gloves, stood by the door of the warehouse and started to shout, "Alright, everyone, gather around me. Children, don't get anxious. Everyone, come over, there's no need to push. Alright, I'm going to start the bidding. As everyone knows, the starting bid is 150 dollars…"
Li Du nodded and a blonde lady raised her hand happily and shouted, "One hundred and fifty dollars!"
