It was time for dinner. Luckily, John attended the banquet. Otherwise, Gao Qi would have thought that he had run away.
Since John also attended the banquet, there were some things that were not easy to discuss. Therefore, Gao Qi could focus on enjoying his dinner.
The main dish for dinner was roasted pork knuckle with pickled vegetables. When the huge pork knuckle was placed in front of Gao Qi, Gao Qi's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
This was too … satisfying!
Gao Qi was very skinny. In fact, he was a little too skinny. However, he could really eat a lot.
There was about half of the pork knuckle. It was crispy. Huang Fei ate half of it and did not want to eat anymore. However, Gao Qi was full of anticipation. He ate half of the pork knuckle until there was not a single bit left.
Bernhard also finished the pork knuckle. As for Huang Fei and John, they did not even eat a quarter of it.
Huang Fei and John were used to enjoying life. However, Bernhard was known as the world's richest man. It was indeed commendable that he could eat a large portion of pork knuckle.
Other than the pork knuckle, there were also Weisswurst sausages. They were the same Munich delicacies. Gao Qi ate them with great satisfaction.
Gao Qi had an appetite that did not match his appearance. He also had a gluttonous soul that yearned for and enjoyed delicious food.
However, Huang Fei was full of praise for Bernhard's home-brewed beer. However, in Gao Qi's eyes, this beer was extremely bitter. It took up space after drinking it. What was so good about it?
"Come, Mr. Bernhard. Let me give you a toast."
The two-liter beer glass was filled to the brim. Huang Fei raised the glass and gulped down a quarter of it. Then, he burped with a rosy face and said to Bernhard, "This beer is too good!"
Bernhard nodded and put down the beer glass in his hand. Then he looked at Huang Fei with a serious face and said, "Please don't get drunk. We still have things to discuss."
John immediately put down his knife and fork. He smiled at Bernhard and said, "Mr. Poulenc, I'm sorry. I need to return to the ship to deal with some matters."
John wanted to run. He was a tactful person and was good at protecting himself. After feeling that he might be in the way, he wanted to retreat immediately.
Bernhard said faintly, "Please."
John stood up and left. Huang Fei stammered, "Hey, hey, why are you leaving?"
John quickened his pace, while Bernhard said to the big-sized maids behind him, "All of you can go out. Don't come in unless I call you."
The two maids, who were 1.8 meters tall and weighed 180 pounds, left. They were going to talk business.
Sure enough, Bernhard looked at Huang Fei and said, "Mr. Huang."
Gao Qi's first reaction was that Bernhard knew the true identity of him and Huang Fei. No wonder this John wanted to run.
Huang Fei said with a slightly hazy voice, "Ah?"
"I'm very curious. How do you distinguish between abilities? For example, do you rely on vision or sensory ability? Can you describe it in detail? "
Gao Qi felt that Bernhard's trick was too old-fashioned. This was the way to make Huang Fei spill the truth after drinking.
Huang Fei, whose face was already red from drinking, pulled his collar and said, "You want to know? Okay, we're so close. There's no problem telling you."
Gao Qi did not say anything. Bernhard could not help but feel a little nervous.
Huang Fei said that there was no problem, but he turned to Gao Qi and said, "Come, cheers!"
Gao Qi raised his beer glass and clinked it with Huang Fei's. He took a small sip, but Huang Fei kept drinking.
Huang Fei was trying to get him drunk until he could not say anything.
Bernhard was helpless. He said in a deep voice, "Mr. Huang, I heard that you like cars?"
Huang Fei put down his glass and said loudly, "Ah, I like them."
Bernhard said indifferently, "What a coincidence. I like them too."
Huang Fei waited for Bernhard to continue, but Bernhard did not, so he had to say, "And then?"
"There is no then."
Huang Fei was stunned for a while, so he picked up his glass again. At this time, Bernhard said slowly, "I will not give the car I like to others, but … I built a car production line. If you like a model, I can build a car that you like."
Huang Fei put down his glass, burped, and said, "But, but we don't have gasoline."
"Well, this is a problem. Why don't I send you a batch? You know that I have trade with most cities in the world. It is not a problem to send you gasoline in the long run. "
Huang Fei swallowed his saliva and said, "I... I like Ferrari!"
Bernhard frowned and said, "Italian products are not reliable. Don't you think Porsche is better?"
"But Ferrari is beautiful. Porsche is like a frog. I don't like it."
Bernhard shook his head and said, "Mr. Huang, you need to improve your taste."
Huang Fei immediately said, "I also like Mercedes-Benz."
"Of course, Mercedes-Benz is perfect. I like it too."
"But I still want Ferrari."
Bernhard's face sank and said, "I can't do it."
Gao Qi could not help but say, "Let's get down to business, okay?"
Bernhard and Huang Fei glared at him together and said, "You don't understand!"
Gao Qi was stunned for a moment. He thought that Bernhard, the richest man, a great scientist, and the mayor of the city, would not argue with Huang Fei, but it seemed that he was wrong.
A man's pleasure was not due to the difference in status and wealth.
Huang Fei and Bernhard argued. Gao Qi concentrated on eating all the food he could eat. Then he felt that he was a little full, so he began to enjoy the quarrel between the two.
Finally, Gao Qi could not stand it anymore and said loudly, "You two, the food is cold."
Bernhard sighed and said seriously, "I'll give you a Porsche 918, a Mercedes-Benz G-series off-road car, and an Audi RS6. These are all classic models. Don't say anymore, or I won't give you one."
Huang Fei immediately stopped and said, "You have to let me play a few laps on your track."
"Do you really know how to drive a sports car? Do you know that racing requires a lot of professional skills? "
"Are you going to let me or not?"
"Alright, I can let you broaden your horizons."
Finally reaching an agreement, Huang Fei immediately said, "My ability is to see the color of other Metahumans' bodies. Every type of Metahuman has a different color, and if the type is different, the location of the light will also be different. It is still very obvious."
Bernhard immediately said, "Is it similar to people? Under different emotions, the position of the body will be different?"
"I don't know. Anyway, none of you can see it from what I see."
Bernhard pondered for a moment, and Huang Fei said confidently, "You're not planning to develop a detector that can detect the type and strength of ability, are you? Impossible. "
Bernhard said confidently, "Why not? As long as you cooperate, I can develop such a detector. "
"Then I'll lose my job?"
Bernhard shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Then your life will be saved. Huang Fei, do you know how many people know about you? There are no secrets in Chaoxi City. I only need to ask around when I'm doing business, and I know your information. Do you think it was John who told me? No, he sees you as a cash cow, so he won't reveal your secret. "
Gao Qi and Huang Fei were a little surprised, and Bernhard continued, "Your ability will make many people want to kill you, but if a more advanced detector comes out, your ability will not be so outstanding, and there will be no need to kill you. Think about it, I'll wait for you."
Thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be true.
Huang Fei and Han Ruofeng, the two psychic ability users in Chaoxi City, their abilities were very valuable, but the problem was that ability users had just appeared for a few years, and no one knew the importance of keeping it a secret, including themselves.
Now, Huang Fei was slowly learning to keep it a secret, but it was too late. Too many people knew what his ability was, so it was inevitable that he would be regarded as a thorn in the side of many ability users.
Bernhard said confidently, "I only need to know how your ability works. I don't need to dissect you, nor do I need to lock you up. As long as you cooperate, I can quickly make a new detector. I will give you a generous reward, so that you can be rich for the rest of your life without doing anything. Or you can move here and live, and my runway will always be open to you. You will get the best treatment, or you can go to a city you like, and I will give you shares of the Bavarian Instrument Factory. Think about it."
What was bold and unconstrained, what was meant by using money to smash people? Bernhard was the real deal. John's idea of using tens of thousands of grams of gold to tie up Huang Fei as a money tree was ridiculous. Bernhard's method of controlling him for the rest of his life was the real deal.
Bernhard didn't say much nonsense, but as a bystander, Gao Qi understood very well that Huang Fei was going to be rich, and Huang Fei was going to become Bernhard's man. It was only a matter of time.
Sure enough, Huang Fei looked at Gao Qi. His eyes were a little blurred, and his expression was a little hesitant.
Bernhard continued faintly, "Invite Han Ruofeng as well. I also need his ability. I know that you two have a good relationship. Think about it. The two of you can live the life of a super-rich person. Moreover, I won't restrict your address, nor will it affect your work. Please believe me, I'm definitely the best and most generous partner in the world."
Gao Qi couldn't help but take a deep breath. Bernhard looked old-fashioned, stubborn, and very stubborn, but he was the one who really hid his strength. No wonder he could become the richest man in the world. With this kind of temperament, he couldn't help but admire him.
Huang Fei twisted his neck and whispered, "I'll think about it."
Bernhard didn't continue to dwell on the same topic. He looked at Gao Qi and said, "Now let's talk about Anna."
"Well, okay."
Bernhard said faintly, "I combined my genes with the best woman I could find through gene editing. She was born through test tube baby. I'll make it clear that it's not a clone."
"Ah!"
Gao Qi was surprised. He wasn't surprised by Anna's origin, but by Bernhard's honesty.
Shouldn't he be doing everything possible to cover it up? Shouldn't he be doing everything possible to silence them? Shouldn't Gao Qi and the others slowly discover the truth? Why, why did Bernhard tell the truth so simply and directly?
This didn't make sense!
