Master Dao narrowed his eyes at Li Du and asked, “When did you know about it?”

Li Du looked blank as he asked, “Know about what?”

Master Dao pursed his lips and said, “Enough. You can stop acting stupid now. Little guy, we know we have bumped into an expert. Please tell us, when did you learn that we are scammers?”

Now that they had laid everything out, Li Du stopped acting as if he did not know what was going on.

He smiled, “I couldn’t tell. Nevertheless, I always have to be careful, don’t I? My buddies took photos of you and went out to ask people on the streets. You guys are quite famous around here. Then, it was easy to find out the rest.”

Master Dao’s face changed and he said harshly, “Those idiots cannot stop their blabbering!”

Xiao Liao said impatiently, “D*mn, I don’t care about what’s happening out there. Master Dao, what do we do now?”

Master Dao gave Li Du a fist bump and said sincerely, “Buddy, we didn’t know better and provoked you. I hope that you will be forgiving and give us our money back.”

Li Du smiled. “I wouldn’t touch your money, but I won’t let anyone touch mine either.”

Master Dao heaved a sigh of relief and said, “That’s good.”

Li Du turned to walk away. Master Dao was stunned. He stopped Li Du and said, “Brother, didn’t we agree that you won’t touch out money?”

“That’s right,” Li Du nodded, “But I don’t have any of your money on me. All I have is mine.”

Master Dao started to grow angry. He bit back a harsh retort and said, “Brother, this time we provoked you, which was our brother’s fault. We have to apologize to you. But it’s not right to say that this money is yours, right?”

Xiao Liao’s temper was not as calm. He raised his voice and shouted, “Return the money!”

Li Du said, “Why can’t I say that this money is mine? I made it using my own wits. Why must I return it to you??”

“You cheated us of that money,” Xiao Liao said angrily.

Li Du replied, “How did I cheat you? I have witnesses. If you don’t believe me, you can call the cops. Let them handle this case. How about that?”

Master Dao laughed coldly. “Are you acting dumb?”

Li Du lost his smile and said, “I really can’t understand. I used real money to buy those stones from you guys. Everyone saw that. When I cut them open, I found their value. Everyone saw that too. Then you guys got envious and offered to pay for them. Everyone saw that as well. So, when did I ever cheat you?”

Master Dao gave him a thumbs-up and said, “Sure, we have to admit you’re good. You left no loopholes. Nevertheless, this thing is a scam, isn’t it? Are you going to deny that?”

Li Du looked at him and said, “What do you mean deny?”

Master Dao said coldly, “You’ve gone on the dark side for this. That’s considered denying. For a few hundred thousand, you’re getting in trouble. That’s not worth it, right? You need to recognize that this is Hpakant. People die here every day.”

Li Du smiled. “Are you threatening me? Are you saying that my fate is in your hands?”

Master Dao’s expression was cold as he said, “Not my hands, but our hands. Brother, it seems like you won’t rest until you’re in the coffin!”

He waved and a bread delivery van drove over. The door opened and about fifteen young men came down.

Li Du looked shocked, and Xiao Liao smiled. “Now you’re scared?”

After hearing his words, Li Du said, “I’m not scared. I’m shocked. How can so many people fit inside one vehicle? Is there enough space in there?”

Master Dao was furious. “Alright, don’t let your mouth run at this point.”

Li Du raised his hands and said, “Don’t get angry. You guys want to turn violent after your ploy failed. Isn’t that getting overboard? Is there no law here?”

Master Dao smiled sinisterly. “What has law got to do with a newbie China man? Besides, let me teach you something. Here, having money and punches is law.”

Li Du heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good to hear.”

He, too, waved. The door of the SUV parked by the roadside opened. Godzilla, Brother Wolf and a bunch of others walked over. They surrounded the local thugs.

The other party did not have that many people. The youths who came down in the bread van were short and scrawny. To show off the tattoos on their bodies, they were topless. However, other than the colored tattoos, it also revealed their thin chests and flimsy arms.

Godzilla, Brother Wolf and the rest were tall, huge men. Their average height was 1.9 meters. When they stood together with mute expressions on their faces, they looked like a steel wall!

The hearts of the youths started to race. However, they were used to being arrogant on their turf. They did not quiver in fear and still managed to stay somewhat calm in appearance.

The police on the street witnessed the scene and immediately walked over, their pistols raised.

Seeing that, the bread van youths ran swiftly back to the car. They were not afraid of Li Du and his bunch of foreign men. However, they were afraid of the pistols in the police officers’ hands.

Li Du nodded and Brother Wolf waved. The bodyguards retreated and got into the car again.

Master Dao wore a solemn look and Xiao Liao pulled him aside. “Let’s go, let’s go, d*mn it. However, this is not over. We will teach him a lesson later. Let’s go!”

They got up their van to leave. Li Du said in surprise, “D*mn, can a bread delivery van contain so many people?”

Seeing that they have left, the police did not pursue the case anymore. They left along with their pistols.

Someone who had stood by the side walked over and smiled admiringly. “Buddy, you handled this like a pro.”

Li Du looked at that man, who looked as if he were Chinese too. Although Chinese and Burmese people had a similar hue of skin, their facial features were typically quite different.

The man looked to be in his fifties. His hair was white, his back straight, and he walked steadily. A militant air hung abound him. There was a bald middle-aged man beside him who looked tough and muscular.

Li Du smiled at him and said, “It’s alright. Who are you and what do you want?”

That man pointed at his own chest and said, “I’m Zhong Da Pao, and we are something like fellow countrymen too. My dad is from Nanshan, but I was born in Diannan. Then I spent a few years here. Seeing someone from my hometown, I can’t help but feel happy.”

Li Du said, “I’ve bumped into another person from my hometown? I’ve had to deal with another fellow countryman before. He had attempted to cheat me of nearly a million dollars. If you still dare to come near me, it shows that you are pretty brave.”

The man who introduced himself as Zhong Da Pao laughed. “Haha, I didn’t think of cheating you or you cheating me. So why would I be afraid to come near you? However, come to think of it, buddy, you are really quite high-profile. After cheating the cheaters, you still managed to get out of it in one piece. Although the words of that fellow sound like empty talk, I’m afraid you are in danger now.”

Li Du said, “The ones who tried to cheat me are in danger. You know better than I do how many scammers there are around this area. If I don’t show my capabilities, they’d all think that they can bully a newbie like me.”

Saying that, he looked towards Godanwei, who understood his meaning and acknowledged it with a nod and quick bow.

Zhong Da Pao laughed. “Haha, you’re right. If you can, you should deal head-on with an enemy to make sure others fear to approach you. You’re right in doing that since you’re a powerful person. I’m most keen on meeting powerful people. Your surname is not Su, right? Can you tell me your real name?”

Li Du shook his head. “We don’t know each other and had only just met. Why is there a need to be so sincere with each other? You didn’t tell me your real name just now either, did you?”
