Li Du could tell that Marate and Taylor didn't want to be with them. He didn't want to be a third wheel and disturb the two couples, so he wanted to reject them.
But Hans said, "Sure, it'll be more fun with more people. We don't know much about trucks. It would be great if we could get help from an expert."
Since his partner had said so, Li Du could only play along. "Yes, that's great."
Just like that, they entered the heavy-duty truck area together.
The showroom in the heavy-duty truck area was huge. Many fierce looking trucks were placed there, like steel beasts coldly searching for prey.
Among these beasts, there was one with a red base and blue flame pattern. Its long chimney was as tall as a dragon's horn, and the front of the truck was wide and square. It was very eye-catching.
Seeing this truck, Li Du couldn't care less about Sophie and the others. He shouted excitedly, "Oh my god, Brother Pillar, that's Brother Pillar!"
"What?"
"My Brother Pillar, Optimus Prime!"
Marate nodded calmly. "Oh, Peterbilt, a good truck. It used to be the king of the road. Does China have it too?"
His last words sounded condescending, and his tone was full of superiority.
Li Du smiled and ignored him. Instead, he said to Hans, "Then let's buy Brother Pillar! Autobots, transform! "
"Sh * t, let's not talk about whether we can drive into the warehouse. First, can you drive a truck with your license? Mine can't, anyway. "Hans shrugged.
Li Du could only sigh with regret. His couldn't either.
Taylor, who was standing by the side with his arms crossed, snorted. "What's wrong with you guys? Are you from the 1980s? Autobots transform? "
"They're not from the 1980s, but this guy should be from China. You know China, right? They specialize in selling porcelain and pandas. I've been there before. They're like America 30 years ago, "Marate grinned.
The two girls frowned. Natalie said unhappily, "What are you two talking about? That's too much! "
Sophie apologized to Li Du, "I'm sorry, Li. Marate and Taylor like to joke around. I don't think he meant to laugh at you guys."
Marate said, "I'm not mocking anyone, Sophie. I've been to China. I'm telling the truth. Ask him, isn't China backward?"
Li Du smiled, and Ah Meow immediately jumped down from his arms. Hans, on the other hand, pulled Sophie back.
"What? That bastard Marate … "Sophie said angrily.
Hans said, "Watch quietly. Li is about to get angry. It's time for the Soviet Iron Fist to punish the world."
Sophie's pretty face was blank, she did not understand what he was saying.
Li Du smiled and said, "Well, my motherland is China's home. We don't have mobile phones, computers, or televisions there."
Then, he changed the topic. "But you definitely haven't been there. Otherwise, you would know that the streets there are full of cars, and these trucks are child's play."
Marat laughed and said, "Child's play? This is very funny. Your jokes are very funny. "
Li Du said, "No, no, no, I'm not joking. Maybe you're simple-minded and didn't understand what I said. I mean, the kids in my hometown know these trucks very well, at least more than you know. "
Marate was still laughing, but his laugh was full of disdain. "I can't help but laugh at your bragging."
Li Du shrugged and said, "No, you're laughing because you know what I said. You know less about cars than the kids in my hometown."
Taylor couldn't take it anymore and said, "Then let's not talk nonsense. You and Marate compete. Let's see who knows more about trucks."
Li Du shook his head and said, "Really? Forget it. I've said that the kids in my hometown know more than you do. It's not fair for me to compete with you. Besides, you're Sophie's friends. I don't want to embarrass you. "
"I hate the way you brag with a straight face. Come on, Mr. Treasure Tycoon, let's compete," Marate said.
Li Du said, "Are you serious? What about the loser? "
"You say it!" Marate said confidently.
Li Du said, "The loser has to climb onto the Raptor at the entrance and shout 'I'm a country bumpkin' three times. How about that?"
"That's not a Raptor. The F150 is a Raptor. The code for the F650 hasn't been released yet," Taylor laughed mockingly. "You want to compete with Marate just like that?"
Sophie reminded him, "Marate is a customizer who specializes in cars."
Li Du looked at Marate and said, "If you don't dare to agree, then forget it."
The tall, blonde young man laughed, "Americans aren't afraid of anything. Alright, let's compete."
"How? You state your terms, "Li Du said casually." You don't have to. I'm the host. I'll make sure you lose. "
The veins on Marate's forehead twitched. He said, "No need. You state your terms. I'm the host. I'll make sure you lose."
Hans shook his head and said in a low voice, "This kid is really not afraid of death. I respect him for being a real man."
Ah Meow also shook its head. Its chubby face was full of disdain.
The man and the cat had been with Li Du for a long time and understood his temper. Retreating in order to advance was his most common tactic. However, many people were too arrogant, and it was easy for them to fall for this tactic.
Since that was the case, Li Du did not hold back. He had originally wanted to state his terms. If they were to compete on their own, even ten of him would not be a match for Marate.
However, he had the little bug as his helper. As long as he could use the strength of his helper, even ten Marates would not be a match for him.
Li Du pretended to think for a moment and said, "Let's be straightforward. Sophie, you go and turn all the information plates to the other side. Let's guess the information of the truck's engine. Do you dare?"
This car dealership was very formal. Next to each car, there was an information plate with the relevant equipment registered.
However, just in case, Li Du proposed to compete on understanding the engine's information. This way, even if there was no information on the license plate, there would still be a description of the car's engine.
Marate's eyelids twitched. There were more than 50 trucks here. The engine's horsepower, specifications, displacement, and number of cylinders were all different. Even a salesman would not be able to understand all this information.
Taylor also understood this and said, "This is reckless."
Li Du said, "If you think my terms are too difficult to fulfill, then I'll go first. You can pick any ten trucks and I'll introduce them to you. How's that?"
Seeing Li Du's confident look, Marate hesitated. Taylor whispered, "I think he's just trying to scare you off with his harsh terms."
This helped Marate make up his mind. He said, "Alright, let's compete."
Taylor looked around and pointed to a big red truck. "This truck."
Sophie turned the information plate around. Li Du released the little bug to take a look. Then he laughed, "Wow, you're very cunning. Not many people know about this truck."
"This is not an American truck. It's an Italian truck. Iveco specially provided it for the Ferrari factory in Maranello."
"It has a 12.9 L engine with a maximum of 570 horsepower. It can output 2,500 Nm of torque between 1,000 and 1,575 rpm. It's matched with an automatic transmission …"
Marate and Taylor's faces darkened as they listened to Li Du's introduction.
