Chapter 137 Vehicle Transfer He drove back to the city and went straight to the Green Letter Shelter. After Sig parked the car on the side of the road, Zhang Ailun also chose to go directly through the front door. Reina and other staff were still busy, so the two waited for a while and helped out. When the work became less busy and it was time to take a break, Reina handed Zhang Ailun's ID and bank card to him. Sig asked, "Can I apply for this kind of card?" "This is a charity savings card issued by a private bank. Ordinary people are not eligible to apply for it. You must have an internal member introduction to open it. And only those who are engaged in charity and have a job position can apply for it." Reina glanced at Sig and answered calmly. Although Sig had worked part-time, he was just an anonymous temporary worker, and the one who really helped was Leon. He glanced at Zhang Ailun with some complaint. Why did you bring someone with you? The chief leader completely ignored and was immune to her gaze, and only felt that the love card in his hand with the red cross and other prints was very pleasing to the eye. Escaped again. Otherwise, if you want to get this card from Reina, you must make her happy. The leader will have to work very hard and it will be very tiring. Under Reina's guidance, I also downloaded the private banking app and bound my resume information.
After taking a look, the savings balance showed 0. Zhang Ailun was a little confused, "Hasn't the donation been received?" "It will take some time to process the money." Reina took out her phone and took a look. "You chose me? Mine has already arrived, but I don't need so much credit." The savings balance showed a limit of $6000, so Reina transferred the money directly to Zhang Ailun. The reminder message arrived soon and the balance of the savings card showed US$12000. Zhang Ailun was satisfied. As long as he kept the accounts, he could spend the 12000 US dollars as he pleased. In the future, if you get cash rewards from completing missions, you can donate all of them to charity through online banking transfers. If you get money from selling collectibles, you can deposit it in a bank and pay a maximum tax of 1%. If it exceeds a certain amount, you can just donate all of it to charity. You don't have to think too much about virtual currency settlement. The money you earn now is still small, so you can continue using this method. If your assets grow bigger, you can directly invest in and set up a foundation or charity. It was afternoon and the alarm on his cell phone rang. Zhang Ailun logged into and searched for the platform's container blind box sales. While others were still watching the introduction, he directly located the blue container, paid a deposit of $100, and locked on the target. 其他的集装箱也是很快就被人下单订购了，机遇网的商家也在后台给张艾伦发送了一条私信：恭喜你成功下单编号5668的集装箱盲盒，请在最晚22:59分之前抵达洛南港口区B1私人中型仓库里领取序列号为C-510的蓝色集装箱。可使用现金或虚拟币支付900美元等值的卫生管理费用。超过限定时间三天会取消订单，订金不予退还。 "Why are you so happy?" Sig was puzzled when he saw the smile on Zhang Ailun's face. "Because I spent a thousand dollars on an auction of a container blind box on ." "What? 1000 dollars?" Sig felt like the sky was falling after hearing this. Some people doubted their lives. "No matter how rich you are, there is no need to squander it like this, right? Do you think you are lucky enough to get something like those scrapped cell phones worth $50,000? How is this different from gambling?" "Just go there and take a look. I have a hunch that I can definitely make a fortune this time!" After saying hello to Reina, Zhang Ailan and the depressed Sig left the Green Letter Shelter. Driving through the city center, it took some time to reach the southern port area of Luo. After parking the car, Zhang Ailun got out and took out his cell phone to contact the warehouse manager. Soon a slightly plump middle-aged white man rushed over.
"You came so fast?" The administrator rushed over and was also very surprised. He smiled and said, "This batch of goods has been here for several months and no one has claimed them. Our supervisor asked me to sell them online. I thought no one would bid for them, but I didn't expect you to buy them in seconds." "Is it too late to refund now?" Sig was a little puzzled. That's a thousand dollars, why not do something with it? "Oh, man, stop joking. You have already paid the deposit. If you want to return the goods, that hundred dollars will be really wasted. Moreover, this batch of goods is stored in a private warehouse, and the box door locks are disposable. Without instructions from above, we are not qualified to open and destroy it. We don't know what is inside. There may be some very valuable items in it!" The administrator said tactfully. But looking at his grinning face, you can tell that he often puts container blind boxes on the shelves for sale, and most people lose all their money after buying them. "To be honest, I would rather buy lottery tickets or go to casinos. At least I can make money there than running this thing." Sig complained, "This is like picking up gold from a garbage dump." "Since we've already bought it, there's no point in returning it. Take us to have a look." Zhang Ailun was full of confidence. Aren't they always doing this kind of thing of panning for gold in garbage dumps? Professional counterparts. It just costs a little more this time. "Ok, please follow me." The warehouse manager said, took out a bunch of keys, and took the two of them to the private warehouse. They soon arrived at the B1 storage room, opened the door and walked in. As soon as Zhang Allen and Sig entered, they smelled a rotten and moldy smell. "WTF! Are you sure this thing has only been here for a few months?" Sig was a little numb for a moment. I saw a lot of rubber products, wooden boxes and iron boxes piled up inside. What good stuff could be in there? Rotten nuts? Snacks? Or an inflatable doll? What does the owner of this private warehouse do? The administrator felt a little guilty when looking at the mold spots. He explained, "It's mainly because there is no ventilation. This is a private warehouse. Our job is just to look after the goods. We rarely come here. The goods have been unclaimed. We contacted the owner a few days ago and found that he is already in prison. You know, no one wants this batch of goods, so we need to deal with it and empty the warehouse." The more Sig listened, the more desperate he felt. He glanced at Zhang Ailun, who was very excited, and said, "Boss, I think your money is really wasted." "That may not be the case." Zhang Ailun quickly found the blue container piled up among the cargo. The administrator took out the order list and took a look at it. "You ordered a C-510 blue container. In addition to the $100 deposit, you also need to pay a $900 sanitation fee. Do you want to pay in cash, online banking, or virtual currency?" "Isn't this the equivalent of us paying you to take out the trash? Your supervisor is a genius." Xige quickly understood their business model. Shameless, can you be any more shameless? "Don't say that. This is something we both agreed to, and there are legal clauses." The administrator's attitude was still mild. Who wouldn't be happy to see a sponsor come to give money? After all, they gave money, so what's wrong with saying a few nice words? Although you can't open the box directly, they have also roughly understood what is inside from the warehouse owner, so it is impossible for them to really leave you any good things. Those people still want to get treasures through blind box opening. Isn't this just fooling fools? I just picked up $1000 for free. "I choose to pay in cash." Zhang Ailun took out $900 in cash and handed it to him. The administrator counted the amount, smiled happily, and immediately gave Zhang Ailun a receipt. He turned around and walked to the utility room, took out a large pair of pliers, and said gently, "Do you need me to help you open it?" "Of course." Zhang Ailun and Sig came over. The door lock of the container was intact and there was a note on it. The administrator went forward to emptied the goods, directly cut the chain with pliers, and opened the door of the container. Looking inside, there were a pile of cardboard boxes, foam, and a layer of pitch-black linen. Nothing else could be seen. The administrator took a look and said regretfully, "It seems to be just some foam boxes?" "Get out of the way, let me see what I bought with this thousand dollars!!"
Xige was a little overwhelmed. Seeing the leader losing money was more painful than losing his own money. He immediately pushed the administrator aside and started to pull out the cardboard box, cursing under his breath. Soon I felt something was wrong, as if I had hit something hard. Was it a shelf that was tied tightly? "Is this a metal cabinet?" Sig hesitated. The administrator also expressed his confusion. Zhang Ailun had already vaguely seen the outline of the tire, so he went over and tore off the nylon rope that fixed it, then lifted the black cloth covering it. "This is clearly an off-road vehicle!" An all-terrain off-road Wrangler was revealed. "WTF!!" The Sigs were all dumbfounded. The administrator felt as if his heart had stopped beating and he almost passed out from lack of breath. He stared at the SUV in the box in amazement. "The paint is still brand new, and the chassis and engine numbers are from last year, but it probably hasn't been used. What a fortune!" Zhang Ailun checked it and found the documents on the passenger seat. He said happily, "The matching documents and keys are also in the car!" Sig came back to his senses from his state of doubting his life. His expression changed at the speed of light and he smiled happily. "Hahaha! Boss, we are so lucky! We can buy a jeep in such good condition for one thousand dollars? This car must be worth at least 50000 dollars, right?" The administrator was also shocked. Why does this guy have a Wrangler? Didn’t the warehouse owner say that there was nothing good in there and that he had already explained everything that needed to be explained? Is it reasonable that the big baby could stay under their noses for so long without being discovered? He forced a smile, clapped reluctantly, and said sourly, "Guys, I have to say you are really lucky." This broken box has been here for more than half a year and no one has cared about it or claimed it. He never expected that an off-road vehicle could be driven out of it. I can only say it’s fate. If this container is not sold, won’t this off-road jeep be theirs? Regret, I really regret it. Zhang Ailun sat in the car, started the vehicle, and took Sig out for a test drive. He felt that the vehicle had plenty of power and a full tank of fuel, worthy of being a Jeep off-road vehicle. The administrator was like a frost-bitten eggplant. He took out his mobile phone to chat with other administrators and supervisors at full speed, and the beautiful language starting with F was definitely included in it. If they had known there were good stuff inside, they would not have sold it at all and would have opened the box secretly themselves. The off-road vehicle was driving on the flat road, and the humming sound of its engine power attracted a lot of people's attention. Some professional treasure hunters learned about the situation and their eyes changed when they looked at Zhang Ailun. Damn, that broken box with a guaranteed reserve has been stored in the warehouse for more than half a year. There are so many tricks in it that no one would buy it. How can it be opened to produce goods worth tens of thousands of dollars? A Wrangler? If this isn’t Destiny’s Child, then what is? When buying boxes, you have to buy fresh ones. The administrator will not have time to tamper with them. This requires eyesight, knowledge and luck. But I spent a lot of research and spent $36000, only to buy a bunch of inflatable dolls. Who can I complain to? Someone came over and asked, "Hey, buddy, are you selling this car?"
"Sorry, I don't plan to sell it. I plan to keep it for myself." Zhang Ailun knew it was a car dealer at a glance. He patted the car and said happily, "I like this big guy very much. Who doesn't want to own a big, durable Jeep?" He looked at the administrator who was doubting his life and waved his hand. "Thank you for your service. It saved me $49000. I got such a nice car." I honked the horn twice. Didi! My husband is in trouble. The administrator tried hard not to curse. It was obviously me who came here first. I have been looking at the warehouse door here for half a year! The administrator forced a smile and said, "Of course, of course. It's all based on luck." He was cursing in his heart again. Zhang Ailun drove the Wrangler for a spin and asked Sig to drive the shabby old pickup truck. They left the southern port area of Los Angeles and decided to go to the vehicle management office to transfer the ownership of the truck. I logged into the official website of DMA in Los Angeles and made an appointment to register online in advance. The vehicle registration fee is $15. The transfer of used cars requires registration fees and license plate fees. The license plate is attached to the car and is not bound to an individual. DMA requires the year and month of the license plate. The license plate fee is waived if the transaction is made within 72 days. If the transfer exceeds the deadline, a 2% vehicle tax will be required. The license plates of the previous hiking RV and pickup truck had expired a long time ago. Normally, a license plate fee should be paid for the transfer of ownership, but Dominic used another method. Because the owner had passed away so long ago, the information of the RV from the last century had been sealed in the files of cancellation and scrapping. He spent only $15 to re-register and activate the vehicle information. He did not use the old license plate, but directly registered and replaced the new license plate. Jason directly found a scalper to help him, and it only cost a few dozen dollars to transfer the old pickup truck. Those old black men returned safely from the suburbs. They were scared by coyotes and robbers, so they didn't dare to act willfully when they were found. They were very cooperative and turned over a new leaf! This SUV had been registered once, and it had all the necessary insurance and other formalities. It had the information of the previous owner, and the condition of the vehicle was nearly new, but the registration information was that of a used vehicle. If Zhang Ailun wanted to transfer the ownership, he would need to pay a 2% license plate fee, and he would also need the notarized document of the owner, but the other party seemed to have gone into prison and lost contact, so it was not convenient to print the title document for him. He sent a message directly to Jason, asking him to help him find a scalper to get it done. Jason: You need to pay the scalper $65 to transfer your car, which includes a $15 re-registration fee and a $50 handling fee. Zhang Ailun: OK. This small amount of money is a drop in the bucket compared to a $50,000 Wrangler. It’s a really reasonable price. They soon arrived at the DMV in the fifth district of Los Angeles and met the scalper. Zhang Ailun directly paid him $65 in cash and the scalper went in through the back door. There was no need to queue up. The other party went through the back door to advance $15 for Zhang Ailun, re-register the vehicle information, and print out the receipt for online banking payment. Just select a license plate number at random, then wait for signature. After signing, wait for the license plate to be printed out and the transfer registration can be completed. The scalpers are very efficient. Most importantly, you don’t need to queue up in front. The license plates are printed by fully automatic machines and can be printed out in just a few minutes. Take the license plate and use the tools in the toolbox to install it on the front and back of the Wrangler, then take the money and leave. If you want to get something done, you still have to find people from such formal institutions. Unlike those staff sitting at the window, they are too lazy to talk to you and are not formal at all. “Finally I have a car.” It has been so long since Zhang Ailun came to the West Coast, but he finally has a real asset registered in his name. Sig also felt that his luck was incredible and he couldn't understand it, but he expressed his respect. "You don't need to drive this antique pickup truck anymore, do you? It's almost falling apart. It doesn't even have the strength to hit someone. And you still dare to call it a pickup truck? A Wrangler is not easier to drive than this broken Ford!"
Sig immediately decided to hand the pickup truck over to Jason because he was tired of the old one and wanted to take care of it. From now on, they only needed to take the leader's car when traveling. The Wrangler was very powerful whether it was for hauling goods or hitting people! If it was this SUV that collided with the black guy before, would you still want the fender to be flattened? A drift would definitely make his shit come out, and then crush him into the shit, so that even his mother would not recognize him. (End of this chapter)
