285,000. The same price as Daniel had estimated. It seems the container truly has other goods inside. Daniel chose not to gloat. Abel waved his hand and pointed to Daniel, "No need for compliments, Dan was the one who estimated the price." Allen then put on an understanding face, "I knew it. We're both equally smart. How could you possibly make such an estimate?" "Dan, you really are something. If I had known, I wouldn't have bothered making this call." Daniel just smiled lightly, "It…-

Allen's words gave everyone pause. No one proposed Daniel to be their advisor anymore. Even though they all knew that giving Daniel fifty percent of the value of the goods was better than going home empty-handed or even losing everything. But the thought of giving away half of their money to an advisor who didn't pay a dime made everyone back down. Such is human nature. As Daniel and the Abel brothers made their way in, someone in the crowd harbored malicious thoughts. Glancing around,…

With his new car in possession, Daniel was very pleased. Even in the affluent West Coast community, his limited-edition Brabus had managed to turn quite a few heads. Most of them, of course, were filled with admiration. Passerby A: "Hey, man! Your car is wicked cool!" Passerby B: "Oh, this car gives me the urge to own one!" Passerby C: "Dear, can you step out of the car? Because seeing you in this vehicle fills me with the urge to, uh, get down and dirty. Come on, baby, let's get it on!"…

Daniel had planned to stop, but one shot of espresso martini led the Abel brothers to plead relentlessly. Regardless, he thought, a few more rounds wouldn't hurt and could even broaden their horizons. So, Daniel mixed five different cocktails, leaving Abel and Allen reeling, not from drunkenness but from sheer exhilaration. The three sat at the bar, chatting and sipping their drinks. When Allen found out that Daniel wanted to buy a car, he generously offered, "I have a Raptor that I've never…

Not until the car disappeared around the corner did the smile leave Daniel's lips. Every frown and smile of Sophia's was like a seed sown in the soil of his heart. "What will you walk me out with?" Recalling her words, Daniel seriously pondered, "It seems I really need to get a car." First, he called a car rental service to go back to his low-rent apartment. The book "Qi Origin" was still there, so he packed all his personal items like clothes. Though nothing was of great value, it was…

Daniel was taken aback. He didn't know if Sophia was just talking nonsense. But if she could think of wanting him even when drunk, it seemed she had deep feelings for him. Seeing Daniel frozen in place, Sophia's hands wrapped around his back. Given the circumstances, there was no reason not to act. Daniel was breathing heavily, no longer able to resist. He leaned in, taking in the sight of her dewy, delicate lips, and passionately kissed her. He could feel her small hands around his…

Daniel accepted them with a smile, noticing a handful of coffee cups scattered around Sophia's feet. He couldn't help but ask, "Don't tell me, you've been standing here waiting for me this whole time?" Annoyed, Sophia retorted, "What else? I don't have your number." She added sarcastically, "Some people never change. If someone else forgets to ask for their contact information, they wouldn't bother to say either." Daniel laughed awkwardly, scratching his head, "Sorry, I forgot." No wonder…

At this moment, netizens were completely bowled over by Daniel. His ability to decisively find treasures among junk, see through surface level deceptions, pass up enticing objects, and exploit his rival opportunistically made the show's effect superb. This type of streamer, who had real skills, seemed refreshing and worth following. Instantly, the live stream room was ablaze with firework emojis, and the rocket trails were continuously shooting up. Wealthy netizens, unable to contain their…

"Daniel got cold feet." "He learned his lesson from last time." "But he just missed a surefire money maker." "Turns out, he's not as big as he seemed." "Joseph Thompson just picked up a huge bargain." The treasure hunters all shook their heads in disbelief. Even if Daniel had ended up winning the auction, they wouldn't have felt any regret. At the very least, this young man was a lot more likable than Joseph Thompson. Under envious gazes, Joseph Thompson rushed to the container with…

Before the third container was opened, Robert stated, "The goods in this container are the same as the previous two." "Although we are uncertain if those collectibles got incinerated along with the second container, we still have to pray that they are in this last one." "It's the only way for us to have a shot at a big score." Daniel didn't wait for him to finish, his gaze already locked onto the container, silently uttering the word 'appraisal' in his mind. Detailed information instantly…
