Chapter 1593 I still have some unimportant weight

At this time in the villa, Xiao Peng also told Vincent what happened that day.

Vincent thought for a moment and said, "Xiao, forgive me for being frank! I suspect you did this because there is another important reason for you to do it."

"Huh?" Xiao Peng was about to grab two more bottles of beer from the refrigerator when he was taken aback by Vincent's words: "Any other reason?"

Vincent said, "This solution isn't your usual style! From what I've heard, you've embarrassed France and Germany numerous times. Even with your current good relationship with William, you've often killed him if he's provoked you! You're in control of both Dutch royal estates! You never back down just because of someone or their background."

After hearing this, Xiao Peng opened the refrigerator door, took out two bottles of beer, handed one to Vincent, and took a gulp himself before asking, "Vincent, do I look like a fool?"

Vincent was stunned. He didn't understand why Xiao Peng asked that, but he shook his head. "No, no, no, you're certainly not a fool. No one's success is accidental. You're definitely capable of reaching the top of this industry."

Xiao Peng nodded and said, "Vincent, you've hit the nail on the head. We have a saying in our country, 'If you make a fuss, the child will get candy.' You see how much trouble I've been in over there. To put it bluntly, it's all because of two words."

"Which two words?" Vincent asked puzzledly.

"Interests," Xiao Peng answered. "Those countries seem powerless against me. But no matter how powerful I am, I'm still just one person. I can't possibly be a match for the state apparatus. Look at me now. Everyone says I'm thriving in Europe, but I don't dare go to the UK. Why? I've offended someone so badly! But I'm not worried they'll cause me trouble again. It's all about 'interests.' They've gotten themselves into such a mess over just me, and several European countries need me. They can't possibly offend so many countries over me. And who knows, maybe one day they'll find me, just like the Mitsui Group did. Frankly, I'm a businessman. As long as the interests are right, there are no permanent enemies. I'm doing well in Europe now because what I do is in their best interest. So even if I make a fuss, as long as it doesn't affect their fundamental interests, they'll turn a blind eye and even make some concessions for me."

Vincent nodded. What Xiao Peng said was absolutely correct.

Xiao Peng continued, "My business has always been in Europe, not North America. I don't have the capital here to stand tall! Especially who is my opponent this time? Kevin Ishii! He's the one who pulled out biological weapons and tried to kill my entire crew over a disagreement! Why did he dare to do that? Isn't it because he's from the CIA? Others would investigate and collect evidence first, but you guys just go ahead and kill people! Do you believe me when I say I'm not afraid of such an opponent?"

Vincent was about to speak when Xiao Peng interrupted him and continued, "I promised you back then that I would come to America. It would be a lie to say I didn't want revenge, but when I calmed down, I realized I couldn't do that—I had no bargaining power. But I'm lucky, and hey, I actually found something I could bargain with. My mind was active again, but then I calmed down. As you said, Kevin Ishii is from both the CIA and Fort Detrick. He's such a powerful person, the bargaining chip I have may not be enough to kill him, so I decided to let the matter go. I didn't expect so many things to happen later? Even the entire Langley was wiped out? I can only say that God is helping me."

Vincent heaved a sigh of relief. "Wait, you said you still have leverage? What do you mean?"

Xiao Peng lowered his voice and said, "I'll tell you a secret! Some time ago, I was invited by a certain country to investigate a missing strategic nuclear submarine of theirs. I won't tell you which country it was, but there are only a few countries with strategic nuclear submarines. I originally wanted to deal with it, so I followed the preset route they gave me and searched around. In the end, I actually found the submarine! Guess what?"

"What's wrong?" Vincent asked quickly.

Xiao Peng broke it open with both hands: "That strategic nuclear submarine broke into two pieces! What's even more terrifying is: the reason they broke was due to a collision!"

"Hit?" Vincent was shocked. "Who hit it?"

Xiao Peng said, "Who should I ask if you ask me? But I found something near the wreckage of that submarine that doesn't belong to that submarine! Can you guess what it is?"

Vincent was anxious: "How could I possibly guess? Stop beating around the bush with me, what is it?"

Xiao Peng was quite pleased with Vincent's expression. "It's a broken towed sonar. If I'm not mistaken, it's a good thing from your country!"

"Where is that sonar? Where did you find it?" Vincent asked hurriedly.

Xiao Peng looked at Vincent as if he were a fool. "Vincent, even though we're familiar with each other, do you think I could tell you something like this? Forget the sonar, it belongs to the client country, and the coordinates I discovered were the bargaining chip I originally planned to use to kill Kevin Ishii with your country. But after thinking about it, I felt that the chip wasn't heavy enough to kill Kevin Ishii, so I chose to compromise and reconcile. As the famous Daxia cultural saying goes: 'One step back, the sky is wide open.' Okay, I admit I was a coward. But that's normal. Have you ever been a coward in your life?"

Vincent didn't answer Xiao Peng's question, but asked anxiously, "What are you going to do with that coordinate?"

Xiao Peng lit a cigarette and said calmly, "Since Kevin Ishii is dead, selling these coordinates would be a good idea! Think about it, forget about that strategic nuclear submarine that's broken in two; their country won't give it up. But maybe we can find traces of the perpetrator at the scene, right? Selling these coordinates for a billion or eight billion dollars shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"How do you prove that what you said is true?" Vincent asked.

Xiao Peng smiled and said, "I'll send you a photo of the sonar wreckage. See for yourself if I'm lying. At least I have to make back the money I spent coming here, right? To be honest, several countries have already contacted me. I really don't understand why so many countries are so interested in these coordinates!"

"How do you get in touch with other countries when you're here all the time?" Vincent asked puzzledly.

Xiao Peng answered directly: "You don't think I would carry such information with me, do you? What if someone kills me? I have to learn to protect myself when I go out!"

At this time, in the car outside, the middle-aged man in a suit heard this and shouted, "Quick! Quickly, get the action team back! Tell Vincent that we have stopped investigating Xiao Peng and let him contact him normally! You guys stay here, I need to go report what's going on here!"
