It was a weekend in mid-November, and Li Du was busy.
Cars poured into his villa, including luxury cars such as Bentleys and Maybachs, as well as work vehicles such as Ford Raptors and Toyota pickup trucks.
The parking spaces in front of the villa were already full, and there were cars parked on both sides of the road.
Steve arrived early. He landed at the airport on a commercial plane, and Li Du arranged for Brother Wolf to receive him.
When they met, they gave each other a warm hug. Li Du patted him on the shoulder and said happily, "Hey, buddy, you look good. You're as strong as a bison now."
Steve tilted his mouth to one side like a wild bison. "Huff, huff, wow, I'm a bison, I can destroy everything!"
The white-haired Elson smiled. "You can't destroy Li's love for Sophie. Their love must be as strong as a rock!"
"Of course," Steve laughed.
He handed a gift to Li Du and said, "Happy engagement, Li. When do you plan to get married?"
Li Du shook his head. "That's hard to say. We haven't made a plan yet."
Steve revealed a thoughtful expression and said, "I see. Okay, I understand."
Li Du didn't understand what he understood, but there was no need to ask.
The Flagstaff treasure hunters arrived in groups, laughing and hugging each other's shoulders. Li Du let Sophie come over to chat with Steve, and he went to receive Big Beard Carl and the others.
Compared to Steve, these people's status and wealth were nothing, but they had always done their best to support Li Du when he needed it most.
Perhaps at first, they supported Li Du because they could follow him to make money, but gradually, they really saw Li Du as the leader of their group.
These people were very careful to maintain Li Du's dignity. Sometimes, when they chatted with treasure hunters from other places, if someone provoked Li Du, they would get angry.
Li Du hugged them one by one and greeted them together with Hans.
"Hey, Big Li, happy wedding."
"This is an engagement, Ollie, you idiot, are you drunk?"
"Bullsh * t, I'm very sober. Big Li is not like Big Fox who goes around flirting. He is a responsible guy. His engagement is a marriage!"
"D * mn it, what does it have to do with me? Why is the fire of war on me? "
"Haha, Big Fox, chase Olly out. At least don't give him any alcohol."
Li Du invited them to sit down on the lawn and said, "I heard that there will be a big warehouse auction in Tucson in the next two days. I thought you were all there."
"How can a storage auction be more important than Big Li's engagement ceremony?" Dickens laughed.
Turis nodded and said, "This bootlicker is beautiful. Let's give him a thumbs up."
"F * ck you, Old Tu you bastard, don't tell me you don't think so? Do you want to be chased away like Olly? "
Turis quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no. Boss Li's engagement ceremony is a once-in-a-lifetime event. You can attend several auctions in a day."
"You're also very good at bootlicking." Another person nodded.
"Stop joking." The calm Felix shook his head. "But Boss Li, what are your thoughts after the engagement? Do you want to go somewhere? "
Li Du said, "I don't think so. Leave the honeymoon for another time."
When he said that, Felix, like Steve before him, also showed a thoughtful look.
Li Du was puzzled and asked, "What's with your expressions? What do you mean? "
Felix smiled and said, "Don't get me wrong, Boss Li. What I want to say is, if you don't have any plans after the engagement, you can attend the smuggling container auction. That's the highlight of the Tucson auction."
Li Du had decided to show off his skills at the Arizona auction. When he heard that there was a big auction, he was interested.
"Tucson's smuggling container auction?"
Hans said, "It's actually an auction in Nogales, but it's close to Tucson. Sometimes the auction there is considered an event that belongs to Tucson."
Nogales was a city located on the border between the United States and Mexico, 104 kilometers south of Tucson. It was an important transit point for trade between the United States and Mexico.
Mexico was a country with poor security. There were all kinds of crimes, and smuggling was rampant. Because of its location, smuggled goods often appeared there.
Li Du asked, "How's the auction?"
"It's very big. It's the most famous and attractive auction in Arizona."
"Then we must attend," Li Du said happily.
The group of treasure hunters high-fived each other and cheered, "Hooray!"
Two pickup trucks drove in again. Chris Bell and Magic Hand got out of the truck together.
Li Du was even busier. He greeted the two of them. Porter came again. His appearance was very different from his usual shy and introverted image. He flew in a luxurious business helicopter.
He was chatting with Porter when Steve came over and said with a smile, "Hi, Pastor, long time no see."
Porter looked at Steve in surprise and said, "Buddy, you're here too? Ha, I should have expected it. Li introduced you to me. You guys are good friends. "
"We're all good friends, right?" Li Du asked.
Steve shook hands with Porter and nodded. "Yes, we're all good friends."
The two of them knew each other, but they were not very familiar with each other. There was no trade or business cooperation between the two families, but they were both top families in Boston and would meet on certain occasions.
Then, the senior management of the Harry Winston group had also arrived. The group was relatively large. There were eight or nine shareholders and some senior management, such as Roger Golden, the director of the Las Vegas sales area. In total, there were twenty people.
Li Du patted Steve and Porter on the shoulder and asked them to wait for a while, then went to greet Cole and the others.
The people who came were basically in two circles.
One circle was the treasure hunters, and the other was Cole, Steve, and the others.
Cole and Steve knew each other. He had invited Steve to the annual salon organized by the Harry Winston group in Australia.
In this way, the two sides met. Li Du introduced Porter to them, and Cole and the others quickly accepted Porter. After all, the Porter family also had a huge influence in New York.
Porter was more introverted and had no interest in such occasions. When outsiders greeted him, he smiled and greeted them. Most of the time, he whispered to Li Du and Steve.
As a result, Cole and the others had the illusion that Porter was arrogant and looked down on ordinary people, but he had a good relationship with Li Du and Steve.
After understanding the identity of Steve and Porter, and seeing that they had such a close relationship with Li Du, Carlston shook his head helplessly and whispered to Cole, "You win this round."
Cole smiled happily.
