Located in the tropics, the high temperatures are always unbearable.
Fortunately, the hotel's water supply was normal, so we could take a shower.
Otherwise, Chen Dong would feel uncomfortable all over.
I feel much better after taking a shower.
He came out while drying his hair.
Only then did he notice that the low table in the room was filled with all sorts of weapons, including several types of pistols.
In addition, there are bullets, sabers, grenades, etc.
The dragon, the tiger, and the fox were all intently adjusting their weapons.
Upon seeing Chen Dong emerge, Wolong put down a pistol he was adjusting and walked over to report, "Brother Dong, the person I contacted has arrived and is nearby."
Upon hearing this, Chen Dong nodded and said, "You came very quickly! Have you made arrangements for them yet?"
"It's all arranged. The small arms have already been delivered, and we can arm them now. As for the larger, harder-to-move ones, I'll leave them in a nearby house. They'll be there, armed and ready to be deployed at any time."
"Okay, very good. Let's leave it at that for now."
"Brother Dong, do you want to meet them?" Wolong asked.
Chen Dong pondered for a moment before saying, "We definitely need to meet, but let's wait until we've finalized our next steps."
"Okay, then. Shall we discuss this?" Wolong asked again.
"Yes, we definitely need to discuss it. But let's eat first. You must be hungry too, right? After we eat, we'll have a meeting with Lao Qin and the others to discuss it."
“Alright!” Wolong replied.
The tiger and the fox carried the weapons that were easy to carry with them and put away the weapons on the table.
Lately, they haven't had the chance to handle guns or other weapons, and they always feel uneasy about it.
Now that I have the opportunity, of course I should carry them with me, which can also be considered as cultivating a bond.
After all, it wasn't the gun he was used to.
Although the model numbers are the same.
The group went downstairs together and left the hotel.
The hotel also provides food, but these past two days they have often gone out, walking past barbecue stalls and betel nut stands, eating street food.
The food street wasn't far from the hotel, and it wouldn't take them too long to walk there.
The view was still tropical, with lush broad-leaved trees and abundant flowers and plants.
It was getting late, but there were still quite a few people on the street, even more.
With the daytime heat gone, more people began to get active.
Various shouts and languages could be heard, mainly Burmese, but also English and Cantonese.
With various sounds filling your ears and sights taking in your eyes, and the local delicacies to savor, you can truly feel the vibrant, down-to-earth atmosphere of this place.
Influenced by the Chinese, Indians, Thais, and Yelang people, Burmese cuisine is diverse, reflecting the fusion of various culinary traditions.
Of course, Burmese people especially love chickpeas, and they are found in all sorts of dishes.
For example, the samosa salad, dosa sandwiches, Monlimaya (a type of quail egg snack), tofu, and goat noodle soup that Chen Dong and his friends are eating now all contain chickpeas. In fact, the tofu here is made entirely from chickpeas.
These foods actually taste pretty good.
So they ate with great relish.
As they ate, they talked about their experiences at the jade gambling market.
Old Qin was telling them about gambling on stones and antiques, especially about his experiences appraising antiques in his early years.
Those things are often unknown to people outside the industry.
When Lao Qin recounted the tips and tricks he discovered while appraising antiques, the various ingenious events he encountered, and how he exposed the tricks of counterfeiters while subtly hinting to them to take the items away, Chen Dong remarked that it was all filled with life wisdom.
The three men nodded frequently; to them, what Lao Qin said was like opening the door to a new world.
Although there are many street vendor articles nowadays that introduce the ins and outs of some old trades, they are never as authentic and thorough as Lao Qin's explanations as a true insider. In addition, as an expert in the trade, Lao Qin is also very eloquent.
So although Lao Qin wasn't a storyteller, Chen Dong and the others found his storytelling more captivating.
This kind of charm is called "authenticity"!
Just as people enjoy listening to legendary stories, they also hope that these stories are true, such as based on real people or events. However, when Lao Qin and his colleagues tell certain stories, they also edit them, constructing the most important parts that the audience wants to hear to create a realistic effect, that is, artistic truth.
Everyone listened with great interest.
Suddenly, Wolong brought the spoon to his lips, mimicking drinking soup, and then spoke:
"Note the six o'clock position."
He said these things without showing any emotion.
Upon hearing this, Lao Qin and Chen Dong couldn't help but take a deep breath.
But one of them was a seasoned veteran of the martial arts world, and the other was a reborn individual with a strong mental fortitude. Yet they both acted as if nothing had happened, continuing to eat at their own unhurried pace.
Meanwhile, the tiger stood up, pretending to go buy something from the street food stall owner again.
Although he glanced casually to the side, his expression and posture remained those of an ordinary person, and his gaze did not fall on the six o'clock direction.
However, as he pointed at the food on the stall and gestured to the owner, he inadvertently turned his head and slowly glanced over a small stall selling mirrors next to him, finally seeing the six o'clock direction that Wolong had mentioned.
