บท 55: The Antique Clocks

Hans was very happy with the household appliances they had gotten.

"How much can we get from this?" asked Li Du.

Hans patted the clean, white fridge. "I bet that we can sell it for at least 4,000 dollars. If we can find the right buyer, we'll be able to sell it for 5,000."

Li Du was disappointed. "So little?"

Hans's eyes bulged. "Hey man—do you really think that you're the son of God? You think you're the sworn brother of Jesus Christ? We only spent 400 dollars, and we'll get 5,000 dollars in return! That's a lot!"

"I think that's very little."

"My man, would you feel better if I told you that before this, we would have settled for storage units which could only bring in 400 dollars of income?"

Phoenix had many general stores. Nevertheless, Hans towed the household appliances all the way back to sell to Kevin, the manager of the general store in Flagstaff.

"That's how relationships are built," he explained.
