Chapter 1578 - I Am So Cocky

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Xie Lao Hou’s face turned pale from anger. He gritted his teeth and said, “Fine, Dumb Pao, you win. You can keep being so cocky…”

Zhong Da Pao could not hold back any longer. Xie Lao Hou was the villain and now he was acting all innocent like a victim. Zhong Da Pao threw out a punch, causing Xie Lao Hou to fall onto the couch.

“F*ck you! D*mn you!” Xie Lao Hou jumped up angrily to retaliate. The two men looked like they were about to start fighting.

Li Du nodded and Brother Wolf went to pull the two apart.

Zhong Da Pao raised his voice, “Master Li, get your men to move away. I must teach this scum a lesson today! D*mn, just because I’ve been lying low all these years, you think I’m an easy target?”

Xie Lao Hou did not relent. “C’mon, then, let’s do it! Dumb Pao, don’t say that I didn’t warn you. There are numerous eyes watching you in this town now. D*mn, you’ll have a taste of being attacked from all directions!”

Li Du put out his grenade again and said, “Shall we all die together?”

Such a weapon was uncommon in the streets. After all, Myanmar was no Somali or Iraq. There were pistols and hunting rifles on the streets, but not such heavy-duty weapons.

Xie Lao Hou heaved a breath and said, refusing to back down, “Alright, d*mn, let’s all die together!”

Li Du placed the grenade on the table and said, “But get this clear, you will be the fish and we will be the net, alright? When the fish dies, it really dies. When the net is torn, it still can be repaired, get it?”

“Let me phrase it more clearly. You guys are a bunch of trash. You will be dead when you die and that’s it. But not Master Pao and me. Do you believe that you can just find a few scapegoats if we die and the government will do nothing?”

He patted the grenade, pointed at Xie Lao Hou and said, “Before you decided to provoke me, you should have checked my background.”

Once he was done saying his piece, he grabbed Xie Lao Hou’s shoulders and gave him a slap.

They were not familiar with the place and tried their best to minimize the trouble they caused. However, if the worst came, they did not have to fear, especially not when dealing with local thugs like Xie Lao Hou who bullied the weak. The cockier Li Du behaved, the less Xie Lao Hou would be able to comprehend his intentions and the more he would be afraid to deal with him.

Indeed, Xie Lao Hou could only point at him angrily and say, “Fine, fine, you dare touch me and…”

Before he finished his sentence, Li Du stuffed the grenade into his mouth.

With one hand wrapped around his neck and another hand on the grenade, he said, “Don’t agitate me. I have panic attacks. Do you know what that is? It is a mental illness. A mental patient who kills people won’t be breaking the law. If I pull the trigger of this grenade and push you out of the window, what do you think will happen?”

Xie Lao Hou’s bodyguards were anxious to protect their boss. They wanted to deal with Li Du, but the Markelov brothers rushed forward. Each of them threw out a kick, causing the two bodyguards to fly back to the wall.

Li Du patted Xie Lao Hou’s check and said, “Regardless of whether you believe me, I must first warn you. Even if I use the grenade against you, I can still return to America in one piece, do you understand?”

“Also, if you’re not convinced, you can watch me. This time around at your public auction, you will not get to land anything. No matter how much money you fork out, you won’t be able to buy a single stone. Besides, you will not be able to find out who I got to deal with you!”

Having said that, he took out the grenade and pushed Xie Lao Hou onto the couch. He waved and said, “Let’s go!”

Xie Lao Hou watched them as they left. He still could not help but stand up and say, “Hey, it’s just a misunderstanding. Does it have to turn out this way?”

Li Du turned around and pointed to the stone on the ground. “If you wish to apologize, change your attitude. Can I pick a few stones from here?”

The veins on Xie Lao Hou’s forehead popped and he yelled, “No!”

Those stones were all pieces that he had picked carefully. Each of them had a high probability to produce good-quality jade. He had intended for Da Mao to help verify that for him and even got the milling knife ready. He wanted to get the stones milled on the spot.

Hence, there was no way he would give up on those stones.

Li Du laughed coldly and said, “Fine. Watch how I will teach you a lesson. Provoke me? Ha, even in America, no one dares to do that, do you understand?”

He waved again and led everyone out of the room.

Da Mao walked out behind him with his head held high and his chest puffed out. When he walked past Master Dao, he purposely kicked him and said, “D*mn, you touched my butt!”

The bunch of them left and Master Dao and the other four men stood up, whining. Their faces were now swollen as if they were pigs who have been overfed or hamsters that have stuffed the behinds of their cheeks full of nuts.

Lu Da You held onto his chin in pain and looked at Xie Lao Hou. Then he made some sounds from his throat, “Woo, woo, woo, woo…”

Xie Lao Hou was thoroughly embarrassed. His blood was boiling and when he heard the sound, he lashed out, “Whine and whine and whine, whine your head off! It’s all because you guys did not complete your tasks carefully!”

The bodyguards, too, had been containing their anger. They surrounded the bunch and started to kick them.

Initially, the few of them only had wounds on their faces. Now, their every limb was being attacked!

After having lunch, the bunch of them returned to the public auction and continued viewing the stones.

This time around, Zhong Da Pao was much more careful and followed behind Da Mao closely, watching him like a hawk.

Da Mao giggled. “Master Pao, won’t people mistake us for being fags? You’re too close to me.”

Zhong Da Pao asked curiously, “What are fags? Is this some kind of new slang?”

Li Du laughed and said, “It means ‘gay’.”

“D*mn you!” Zhong Da Pao kicked Da Mao in the shins.

There was an open auction in the afternoon. Li Du went to look at the stones and managed to win the bids for two.

The stones that were entered into the public auction were all promising pieces. The cheapest one was worth upwards of 10,000 dollars. Most of the stones were upwards of 100,000.

These stones have been appraised by numerous experts. They were not of the same quality as those in the market, not all over the place. The stones there had studies done on them and were verified. It was unlikely to get one for cheap as a steal.

Because the starting price was high, everyone who was there was rich. The bidding war during the auction was even fiercer. A stone with a starting bid of 100,000 was often purchased for more than a million.

After spending 655,000 to buy his two stones, a big one and a small one, Li Du returned to the main hall and continued to check out the situation with the stones inside.

Starting from the second day, the closed auction began as well. It meant that it was time to bid for the stones.

Li Du was in no hurry to call out his bids. He had to check out how much the others would offer. Before he saw a good chance, he would not bid. He would not reveal his threshold until the last day, when bids were accepted.

However, to prevent arousing suspicion, he also dropped several bidding slips into the box starting from the second day of the event.

Those bids were definitely unable to win him any stones. That was because he had considered the bids entered before he made his. He did not enter the highest price and thus would definitely be unable to win.

In the meantime, Li Du’s group bumped into Xie Lao Hou again.

Xie Lao Hou pretended not to know them. Even after seeing them, he did not change his expression or blink. He walked steadily and silently as he avoided their path.

“At least he knows his place,” Liu Zi dissed. “D*mn, I wish this piece of shit would die!”

Li Du said to Liu Zi, “No hurry, I will get someone to deal with him. All you guys have to do now is stay low profile. After all, there are many eyes on us. We have to weaken the influence of the King of Hpakant.”
