Li Du did not know what was going on outside. Anyway, his life in prison suddenly became comfortable.
No one asked them to work anymore, and the prison guards politely asked them to leave the prison. Li Du did not leave. Michael Reed's words made him understand.
His connections were starting to work, and he was sure he could leave safely.
First of all, Cole would not watch him be thrown into prison. He had a diamond mine, and Cole was well aware of his value.
Harry Winston would soon rise because of Li Du, and they would have the opportunity to get close to luxury giants such as Tiffany, Hermes International, and L'Oréal.
Of course, Harry Winston was still far from these giants, but as soon as the diamond mine began to produce stable output, the group's market value would surely double!
Cole had even thought about the possibility of Harry Winston going public under his watch. This was a feat that his grandfather and father had failed to accomplish!
Therefore, he could not see Li Du being wrongly sent to prison.
Second was Sophie. Sophie herself was a little doctor, but her parents were professors at a famous school. Although they did not have students all over the world, their connections were no less than those of the bosses of these big companies.
The main event was Porter and Steve. Li Du knew that they had the most terrible power, but he did not know how much they would help him.
In short, as long as they were willing to help, things would be easy for Li Du. Caddy Lent and his uncle, the director, could only wait for bad luck.
Also, he asked Michael Reed to call Tang Chaoyang. This mysterious Tang Chaoyang seemed to have more power. He could even have the original palladium card!
In the evening, Li Du was sitting at the door of his cell. Two prison guards stood on his left and right, chatting with him casually.
They could surf the Internet and know what was going on outside.
"Mr. Li, who are you?" asked a prison guard named Harry curiously.
Li Du leaned against the wall and said, "I'm a Chinese. I'm not an American, so your police station is messing around. You have no right to send me to prison."
The prison guards did not believe him. At this time, Michael Reed came, carrying some coffee in his hand.
He handed Li Du a cup and smiled. "Our coffee beans are bought in the supermarket, but they are freshly ground. I don't know if you like it."
Li Du said with a straight face, "I'm used to it. Thank you, buddy. It's been great meeting you."
Michael Reed felt a little flattered. "Ah, Mr. Li, you are too kind. If you like coffee, I hope you can come to my house after we go out. My wife is very good at making coffee."
"Hey, LeBron James reposted the news about Mr. Li on Twitter. He even prayed for you and defended you," said another prison guard who had been looking at his phone excitedly.
Li Du's interaction with the star LeBron James was not limited to that batch of sneakers. Later, when Harry Winston held a salon in New York, he invited LeBron James, who knew his power.
In his opinion, compared to Kobe, James was a more astute businessman. Their relationship was not as close as his relationship with Kobe, but after knowing that he was a shareholder of Harry Winston, James contacted him frequently.
"Kobe also reposted the news, as well as other NBA stars. Wow, man, this is getting big," the prison guard said.
Warden Felister hurried over and smiled warmly from a distance. "Good evening, Mr. Li. Have you had dinner?"
Li Du curled his lips and said, "I'm not used to the food in there."
Warden Felister said immediately, "I have arranged for the kitchen to order a table of Cuban food for you and your friends. I don't think you can eat such authentic Cuban food in Arizona."
Li Du licked his lips and said, "Then I really have to try it."
Felister smiled when he saw that he was interested and said happily, "That's great. Please come with me. I'll take you to the dining room."
Li Du and Felister walked together, and the prison guards followed them like bodyguards.
Raymond and the other prisoners stood in the corridor, trembling. A white prisoner came out and almost bumped into them. He was so scared that he quickly stepped back.
Li Du grabbed the white prisoner and smiled. "Hey, man, you asked me to get you fried meat yesterday morning, didn't you? I remember you. "
The white prisoner had been avoiding Li Du for the past two days. He knew that Li Du was not to be trifled with when he took care of the black men and the prison guards.
This time, he almost cried when he bumped into Li Du.
Li Du said, "And I remember you told me that I woke you up when I first came that night, didn't I?"
The white prisoner was so frightened that his face turned pale. Three prison guards surrounded him with batons. His knees went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
Li Du pulled him back and pushed him against the wall. He patted him on the shoulder and said, "I apologize to you. I came too late that night and may have caused some noise. I hope you don't mind."
"No, no, no." The white prisoner nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
Li Du smiled and said, "As for the fried meat, when you get out, do a good job in there. When you get out, I'll treat you to good fried veal."
With that, he let go of the white man and turned to leave.
The white prisoner wiped his forehead, which was full of cold sweat.
Li Du did not take his previous provocations to heart. He just wanted to make him happy.
After all, it was too boring to stay in prison.
The prisoners who saw Li Du on the way stood on both sides, not only because he was amazing, but also because everyone knew about the news outside.
There was a public television in the prison, where prisoners could watch the news and learn about the outside world.
After Li Du and the others left, Raymond was the first to show off.
He coughed and sat down in Li Du's former seat. "Guys, come here," he said triumphantly. "Do you want to know about my brother?"
"He's not your brother," someone said disdainfully.
Raymond was furious, pointed to him and said, "Very well, idiot Benjamin, when my brother Li comes back, I'll tell him you said bad things about him …"
The white man was shocked and said quickly, "I was just joking, Raymond, my good man, why can't you take a joke?"
Raymond said slowly, "I'm addicted to smoking, so it's easy to take it seriously."
Benjamin took out half a cigarette and handed it to him to help him. "Smoke, Raymond, didn't you say you wanted to tell us about Mr. Li?"
"Of course, of course, you can ask questions," said Raymond. "One bowl of soup or two cigarettes for each question."
The prisoners were more bored than Li Du. After all, they had been in prison longer.
In this way, they quickly gathered around Rayman and chattered around him.
Raymond sat on the stool in the middle, feeling very powerful, more powerful than ever.
Then he was melancholy: if I feel powerful like this, how powerful would I be if I were Li Du?
