Seeing the fat man with a warm smile on his face, Li Du also smiled, but not very warmly.
He simply nodded and said, "Hello, I'm Li."
The fat man was the blond white boss he had met before. He had shoved him, yelled at him, scolded him, and even insulted him.
However, he seemed to have forgotten what had happened before. He was very warm to Li Du and said with a flattering smile, "Hello, hello, I'm Jim King, the boss of King Kong Storage Company. It's an honor to meet you."
Hearing his self-introduction, Li Du's smile became brighter and brighter. It's an honor to meet me? That's not what you said two days ago.
Of course, Li Du knew very well why he was acting this way. Hans had told him that Knight was pressuring Jim King, and the other party wanted to reduce the pressure through him.
Li Du shook hands with him. Jim King smiled and said, "Welcome to King Kong Storage Company. I have to say, Li, you've been wronged because of our company's poor hospitality."
"It's nothing," Li Du said with a faint smile.
Jim King saw his cold attitude and knew that Li Du had a grudge against him because of what had happened in the past.
So he rubbed his hands and said, "It's like this, Li. I want to discuss something with you. Can you come to my office?"
Li Du said, "Sure, no problem."
This was the purpose of his visit to the storage company. He wanted to see the two oil paintings.
Jim King's office was in the office building. When he walked to the door, he asked in a low voice, "Li, do you still want to take pictures here? If you want, you can take as many pictures as you want. "
The last time, it was because of taking pictures that the two of them had a conflict. Obviously, he still remembered the incident clearly.
Li Du now only wanted to see the two oil paintings. Why would he be interested in this shabby building?
He smiled coldly and said, "No, I don't really like taking pictures."
Jim King was immediately silent and racked his brains to think of a way to win back Li Du's friendship.
Now he was cursing the security guards in his heart. The first time, a security guard had let Li Du in, which led to the conflict. The second time, a security guard had kidnapped Li Du!
For someone like him who had a strong sense of racial discrimination, kidnapping an Asian was something to be happy about.
Even more so, just like what the knight had found out, this incident had something to do with him.
The man with the cleft lip was called Daimler. He had looked for him a few days ago, saying that he wanted to deal with Li Du and wanted to extort some money from him.
Jim King did not have a good impression of Li Du. What could he say in such a situation? Of course, he happily agreed.
However, he really did not know that Daimler wanted to kidnap and kill Li Du. He really thought that his subordinate was only planning to set a trap for Li Du.
No matter what, he was now involved in this case. Knight had sent someone to pressure him, saying that if he didn't find Daimler, they would make things difficult for him so that he couldn't open his warehouse.
Li Du was not clear about Knight's power in Las Vegas, but Jim King was.
What he knew even more clearly was that Knight was a man of his word. If he couldn't fulfill Knight's request, Knight would make sure that he couldn't open his warehouse anymore!
This warehouse was the business that he and his family relied on to make a living. It had been developed by two generations of father and son. If the Knight really made it bankrupt, then he would be beaten to death by his retired father.
He would do anything for the warehouse, and if he knew where Daimler was, he would tell Knight.
The tragedy was that he didn't know!
Therefore, if he wanted to keep the warehouse, he had to think of another way. In the end, the only way he could think of was to use Li Du to ease the pressure that Knight gave him.
Li Du knew all this, so he was in a relaxed mood. After walking into the small building, he looked at the decorations with great interest.
The office building of King Kong Storage Company only looked like a warehouse on the outside. The interior was decorated in a very stylish manner, adopting the style of a collection room. There were many shelves and many glass cabinets, all filled with various collections.
Especially after entering Jim King's office, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Chinese antique porcelain, glittering works of art, oil paintings of famous people, and a lot of statues that Li Du had only seen in books. A large number of antique treasures appeared in front of him.
Li Du was stunned!
It was the first time he had seen such a rich private collection room!
Jim King's desk was located near the window. Behind it were two oil paintings with scribbled signatures. Li Du looked carefully and realized that it was actually Vincent William Van Gogh!
Seeing this, he gasped and exclaimed, "Oh my god, you, you're really an amazing collector …"
Hearing his praise, Jim King laughed awkwardly and said, "You flatter me. Actually, hehe, actually, these are all fakes. I just bought them to satisfy my craving."
Li Du reacted quickly. He was just shocked by the sudden sight of these things and didn't think much about it. Subconsciously, he exclaimed.
In fact, these things were all fakes. If they were real, it would be too amazing. Even the state museum in Arizona did not have so many world-famous collections.
Jim King explained, "I've liked collecting since I was young. That's why I opened a storage company. It's the closest job to collecting."
As he said this, he looked at Li Du and said enthusiastically, "Besides, if I had a storage company, I would be able to interact with my dear treasure hunters. You are all excellent collectors."
Li Du laughed. This guy really knew how to talk. It was a pity that he had seen this guy's face when the two of them had a conflict. Otherwise, he would have been deceived by his performance.
Jim King's secretary brought them coffee. He served Li Du a cup of coffee and said, "I know what happened in the past. I'm really sorry, Li, that such a terrible thing could happen in my company."
Li Du smiled and said, "This has nothing to do with you."
Jim King said, "No, how can it have nothing to do with me? If I hadn't been blind and hired that b * stard Daimler to be responsible for security, this wouldn't have happened! "
Li Du said, "In China, there's a saying: 'The ignorant are not guilty.' Mr. King, you don't know what he is like, and you can't guess what he will do. So this has nothing to do with you."
Hearing this, Daimler laughed and then continued to scold Daimler and the others. He scolded them as if they were his enemies.
After a round of scolding, he said, "Excuse me, what is your relationship with Knight Ferrari? This seems to have angered Mr. Ferrari, and he wants me to give him an explanation … "
Li Du smiled and said vaguely, "We're friends."
Jim King said cautiously, "I see. Then, Li, can you help me explain to him that this really has nothing to do with me?"
