Hans's answer made Li Du want to punch him. No wonder Old Brian had once said that if he had been young, he would have used a gun to kill Hans. If his daughter had been fooled into sleeping with a man, he would have used a gun to kill the man.
But this time, Hans was not doing it for beauty. He really wanted to marry Blonde Ponytail, and even stayed on the farm.
Li Du respected Hans's decision as long as the matter was clear.
He could see that Hans was really satisfied with his current life. When they were together, Hans would laugh, but not as unreservedly as he was now.
Maybe everyone had a childhood dream, maybe Hans had had enough fun, or maybe Barbara had really won his heart. Anyway, he was going to take root in the small, traditional place of Riverdale.
In a way, Blonde Ponytail was like an honest girl who took over a prodigal son, who had had enough fun and found her to spend the rest of his life with.
But for Americans, this was normal. It didn't matter how they played before marriage, as long as they were loyal to their family and loved ones.
Even so, there were very few who could do it. Li Du had seen a statistic that said that 20 percent of husbands in the United States were helping other men raise their children …
Since Hans was willing to stay, and the farm did not make things too difficult for him, Li Du could leave with peace of mind.
Although he had saved his child, Victor Brian still did not like him very much. This prejudice came from Hans. He felt that Hans was not a good person, so Hans's friends were not good people either.
Li Du saw his attitude, so before he left, he knocked on the door of Victor Bryan's study.
"What's the matter?" asked Victor.
Li Du said, "What kind of person do you think Hans Fox is?"
"Not a bad person, not a good person," said Victor calmly.
Li Du thought for a moment and said, "But for Barbara, for your daughter, and for your family, he is a good person. He will not hurt you."
Upon hearing this, Victor became angry. "Huh? He won't hurt us? Do you know what he has done? He has already hurt my family! "
Li Du said, "Calm down and listen to me. Hans probably hasn't introduced himself, so I think you don't know him … "
"First of all, let me introduce myself. Hans and I are both treasure hunters, but I've saved almost all the money I've earned. He's donated almost all the money he's earned to welfare organizations. The total amount he's donated is at least 10 million dollars."
Having said that, he took out the news report he had downloaded in advance from his mobile phone and showed it to Werther.
"Secondly, Hans still has a few million in his savings. He also has shares, which are worth hundreds of millions of US dollars! Yes, you heard it right. His net worth is hundreds of millions of dollars! "
"But he chose to stay here because he loves Barbara and this farm. He treats you with sincerity, I swear," Li Du said.
Victor looked surprised as he read the news report online.
In his heart, Hans was just a loser at the bottom of society, taking advantage of his daughter's innocence to trick her into bed. But now, it seemed that was not the case.
"He was willing to give them up for Barbara and a life on the farm." Li Du continued, "From this point of view, his love for Barbara is sincere enough, isn't it?"
Victor coughed. He turned on the old desktop in the study and went online to search for the authenticity of the information.
Li Du asked him to log on to the official website of the American Association of Storage Treasure Hunters. There was an introduction about the members of the Million Dollar Club, and Victor easily found Hans's photo.
"You may not understand the significance of this club, but your brother does. Hans's choice to stay here means he's giving up the achievements he's made in the outside world for many years. He's giving it up without hesitation."
Victor nodded silently, and his attitude gradually changed a little.
Li Du also nodded and said, "That's all I have to say. Also, I swear that Hans didn't lie to Barbara. He treats this girl with sincerity. I'm his brother, and I know him. He treats Barbara differently than he used to treat everyone else. "
Victor said slowly, "I'll observe him. If what you say is true, then I'll give them my blessing."
Li Du laughed and waved. "Goodbye, I'll give them my blessing too."
They left the farm and met a police car on the way. When Sheriff Wigley saw Li Du, he waved from the car.
Li Du said, "I've talked to the Bryans. My friend is fine here. You don't have to bring him out. I'll drop the charges against your men."
Wigley breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank God!"
He understood Li Du's power, and his attitude toward Li Du was much better than that of the Bryans. Later, he kept inviting Li Du to stay in Riverdale for a few more days, and even invited Li Du to his family dinner.
The town sheriff never gave up any opportunity to expand his network, because his position was based on his connections.
Back in Phoenix, Lu Guan asked, "Boss, how are we going to arrange the work plan? Who will be in charge of the information department in the future? "
Their company was on the right track. Although it was small, it had all the essentials. There were not many employees, and all the departments were complete. The important ones were the information department and the marketing department, which were previously managed by Hans.
Li Du still chose Hans for the sales and marketing departments, but he could not continue to let Hans lead the information department, because he could only get information through the Internet and phone in Riverdale, which was far from enough.
So Li Du patted Lu Guan and said, "As you wish, you will be in charge of the information department in the future."
Lu Guan was overjoyed. He patted his dry chest and said, "I have a few good pieces of information in my hands now. Let's go and do it!"
Li Du said, "Where do you get your information from?"
"There's Tucson, Phoenix, Holbrook …"
"The focus of the information is moving to California. We will no longer stay in Arizona. This place is not enough for us to do our best," Li Du interrupted him.
Lu Guan asked in surprise, "We're leaving Arizona?"
Li Du said, "Yes, we still belong here, but our scope of work has expanded to California."
He had wanted to go to California for a long time. Previously, Hans wanted to stay in Arizona to become a treasure hunter. Now that Hans had given up almost everything in the warehouse auction industry, Li Du had no need to stay in Arizona.
Lu Guan said hesitantly, "But there's a good auction in Tucson. I suggest we go to this auction and move to California after it's over."
Li Du said, "Yes, when will this auction be held? What's going on? "
Lu Guan said, "The auction is in July. It's a joint warehouse auction. There are many large warehouses in it, including a veteran warehouse. It is said that it is very valuable!"
