Chapter 1179 Make a Friend
This is a brand new window, luxurious and full of style.
The cocktail party hosted by the arms tycoon is nothing but a den of debauchery, with countless kinds of delicious food and all kinds of blonde and blue-eyed beauties walking around ready to serve at any time.
This service is not just about delivering wine, but any service can be provided immediately as long as the boss has a need.
The words "bright lights and wine" are not enough to describe the decadence of the cocktail party, which left Lu Xiaoqi stunned: This is the West, this is the cocktail party of an arms tycoon?
We are all people of status, how can we play like this?
In public, young men and women were playing poker together, surrounded by arms dealers.
"100,000 dollars, I bet you can hold on for 10 minutes."
"You're going to lose. I bet you won't last 10 minutes."
"500,000, bet I can last 10 minutes!"
“…”
The waiters played poker with the waitresses, and the big guys gathered around to place bets.
Lu Xiaoqi didn't know what to say. He also played cards when he was at home. Sometimes he played mahjong with his wives, and sometimes he played Pai Gow with the clan leaders.
He is also very relaxed when playing poker.
I do a beauty pageant every year but never thought of linking the two together.
"Play a round?" Curtis said with a smile. "It's just a bet on whether you can last 10 minutes. It's simple."
"this……"
"I bet she won't last more than ten minutes," Curtis whispered. "This chick is quite impressive. Both her posture and strength are quite sticky. Although she doesn't make any sound, her constantly changing breathing is even more lethal."
"Then I'll just place a bet for fun?"
"Put it down more. You need to be noticed."
You have to attract attention, then you can have a conversation, then you can make friends.
This is a routine operation. After all, no one will reject people with deep pockets, especially these arms tycoons.
When they spotted a stranger, they took notice.
"10 million dollars, can't last 10 minutes." Lu Xiaoxia noted.
As soon as he finished speaking, the bosses all looked at him, and some even nodded at him.
In this kind of occasion, people like rich people, especially those who are obviously outsiders.
The arms tycoons were also informed and knew that this strange Oriental man was their rich man and came here specifically to buy weapons.
At this moment, the waiter's body suddenly trembled, and then he exhaled heavily.
"8 minutes and 36 seconds!"
“Haha, I win!”
"Damn, what a loser! He made me lose so much money!"
“…”
Winning is ecstatic, while losing is cursing.
“Bang!”
Gunshots rang out and the waiter was shot in the head on the spot.
The sudden murder made Lu Xiaoqi stunned, and he turned to look at the murderer.
This is a well-dressed middle-aged man with his hair combed meticulously. He is extremely elegant from head to toe and looks like a gentleman.
"If it can't make money for me, there's no point in keeping it."
"Alright everyone, I'll make the compensation later."
The middle-aged man smiled and turned to invite Lu Xiaoqi.
"Have a drink?"
"certainly."
Lu Xiaoqi had no reason to refuse the invitation from the big boss, and he could see that the other party had a higher status and stronger strength among these big bosses.
Banker represents identity.
Not everyone can be the banker, even if it’s just for fun.
Curtis accompanied Lu Xiaoqi to a booth nearby and sat opposite the middle-aged man.
"Curtis, can you please introduce yourself?"
"Okay, this is Mr. Su from the East, who controls power unimaginable to ordinary people. This is Mr. Neil, the ultimate in the arms world and a shareholder in the black market, handling thousands of tons of weapons and ammunition every year."
A simple introduction highlights each person's identity and strength.
"It's clear Mr. Su is no ordinary man. Even his casual entertainment is extraordinary." Neil took out a check and pushed it over, saying with a smile, "This is your compensation. Please keep it."
This is a check for 20 million dollars, which means that Lu Xiao invested 10 million, which doubled instantly.
"Mr. Neil, I didn't pay any real money." Lu Xiaoqi said.
"In the Entertainment Bureau, we always settle the bills later. As long as you shout it out, it counts." Neil said seriously, "This is credibility and also the rules, so this money belongs to you."
Curtis next to them stood up and poured wine for the two of them, also explaining with a smile.
"Mr. Su, businessmen like us value our reputation and will never destroy our own brand, let alone a small entertainment bureau."
"Mr. Neil is respected by everyone because he values rules and is impeccable in both his conduct and his work."
Special emphasis is placed on credibility and rules, which are also things that need to be followed in the arms industry.
Of course, this is just on the surface. Under normal circumstances, everyone will abide by the rules, but when encountering a really big order, they will immediately become wild dogs biting each other.
It's not just the arms circle, it's the same in any circle.
But everyone will take the initiative to maintain decency, which is a business requirement.
After taking a look at the check, Lu Xiaoqi pushed it back.
"oh?"
"Leave it to a friend."
"Hahaha……"
Neil laughed and pushed the check over again.
“Of course you have to make friends, but the money that belongs to you is yours.”
"Mr. Neil, I was in a hurry on this trip and didn't prepare any gifts, so this money can be considered as buying you cigars. Please don't refuse it again."
Very generous and sincere.
No matter what, Lu Xiaoqi is a superior. Facing this kind of situation, he is very calm and at ease, and his expression is very calm.
"In that case..." Neil thought for a moment and said, "It's a matter of reciprocity. Since you gave me cigars, I'll give you three cruise missiles."
"I like this practice of reciprocity, haha." Lu Xiaoqi laughed.
"Come on, my friend, cheers."
"cheers."
Spend money and friends will come.
Neil liked Lu Xiaoqi's way of making friends, and Lu Xiaoqi also liked Neil's frankness, so the two of them soon started chatting enthusiastically.
"I have always been in awe of Oriental people, but I never expected Mr. Su to make me feel so close to him. It was beyond my expectation."
“Where do I begin to talk about awe?”
"Myth! He's from the East. In a short period of time, he integrated mercenaries from all over the world and took control of the Arms Association, dealing an unprecedented blow to our business."
When talking about myths, Neil's eyes showed fear and respect.
"Are you afraid of him?" Lu Xiaoqi asked.
"Who isn't afraid of him?" Neil said in a deep voice, "In this world, whoever has the biggest fist is the boss. When he was alive, our business almost came to a halt because no one dared to challenge him."
"So powerful?" Lu Xiaoqi's pupils shrank slightly.
Although it was his first time to come into contact with the circle of arms dealers, he knew that these were all desperate criminals, each with their own forces, and none of them were easy to deal with.
The black market is also afraid of thunder.
"Amazing is not enough to describe him, because he is a god," Neil said with emotion. "It's a good thing he's dead, otherwise our business would be completely gone."
These words made Lu Xiaoqi feel a little nervous. He knew that Lei Zhen was powerful, but he didn't expect him to be so powerful. In the eyes of Westerners, he was a god-like existence.
Control the mercenaries and control the arms trade.
Fortunately, he is already "dead", otherwise he would not be able to buy arms this time.
"Mr. Su, are you interested in visiting the black market?" Neil said with a smile, "And by the way, get the missiles out of the warehouse. It's a courtesy we agreed on."
"Of course I'm interested. The reason I came here was to buy a batch of weapons, especially the big ones."
"Business comes second. First, let me entertain my friends from the East and fulfill my duty as a good host. Let's go to the fifth floor. That's where you can indulge your soul."
Neil was very enthusiastic and took the two of them to the fifth floor in a hidden elevator.
