Chapter 1406 Boss, You Are Also a Noble
Xiao Peng and his companions were stunned as they emerged from the bathhouse. There was no "blacksmith shop" at all; it was clearly a group of people smashing cars in the parking lot with baseball bats. The cars being smashed were the same two Xiao Peng and his companions had driven in. A woman, richly dressed and adorned in gold and silver, was directing the vandalism.
Xiao Peng wasn't in a hurry, however. He took out a cigarette and handed it to Chen Zetao to light. He then lit one for himself and said, "Why are people so violent these days? Kasin, Bruch, don't let any of them go!"
"Yes! Boss!" Kasin and Bruch went straight over. There was a man who was still smashing the car with a baseball bat. Kasin kicked him in the back from behind. He flew out and hit the car. The broken glass in the car scratched the man and he was covered in blood. He screamed in pain.
Before the men could react, Kasim and Bruch, like wolves among a flock of sheep, caught and beat down every one of them.
Xiao Peng smoked a cigarette and said, "Brother Chen, look at how rough their job is. They're worried that they won't destroy my car completely, so they're throwing people up."
Chen Zetao asked in confusion, "Why did they smash your car? Who is that woman?"
Xiao Peng shook his head: "I don't know him! Do you know him?"
"How could I know him!" Chen Zetao shook his head.
"Boss!" Bruch grabbed the woman by the neck and brought her over like a chicken. "This woman ordered the vandalism. How do we solve this?"
Xiao Peng looked at the woman and frowned slightly: "Why did you smash my car?"
"You...boss?" The woman looked Xiao Peng up and down.
As soon as Xiao Peng heard her speak, he knew who she was: "It's you?"
Chen Zetao asked in confusion, "Who is she? Do you know her?"
Xiao Peng asked, "Didn't you see him in the bathhouse just now?"
"You're lying!" Chen Zetao exclaimed, "Did he just change his head?"
Xiao Peng spread his hands and said, "I wouldn't have recognized her even if she hadn't spoken. You'll get used to it. They're so good at putting on makeup!"
Chen Zetao lamented, "Where has the trust between people gone? This is too deceptive, isn't it?"
The two of them were chatting animatedly when the woman got anxious and shouted at Bruch, "Let go!"
Bruch kicked her directly in the knee, and the woman screamed and fell to the ground.
Chen Zetao took a deep breath. He felt pain just watching this. He said to Xiao Peng, "Brother Xiao, your men really don't know how to be gentle with women! They are so cruel to women."
Xiao Peng said, "Brother Chen, what do you mean? I'm the victim, okay? Did she ever think about being a woman when she was doing something illegal? Did she only realize she was a woman after she suffered? Besides, this is the Netherlands, a place that values gender equality! Be careful if people say that and accuse you of being a womanist!"
Chen Zetao opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
"Boss, this guy looks familiar!" Kasim carried a man over like a dead dog.
Xiao Peng took a look and shook his head: "I don't recognize him. You think everyone looks familiar! How can you recognize him with his face swollen like this? What are you standing there for? Call the police! We are the victims!"
All the onlookers at the scene had dark lines on their faces, looking at the people lying on the ground wailing. They really wanted to ask Xiao Peng: Where do you get the courage to say that you are a 'victim'?
The woman kneeling on the ground raised her head and said angrily, "Do you know who I am?"
Xiao Peng spread his hands. "I'm not your father, so how do I know who you are? But I despise people like you the most. You're so arrogant when you bully others, and when you get hurt, you just use all kinds of names. Remember: only being strong yourself is the most important thing. If you rely on other people's names to be arrogant, who are you?"
The woman looked at Xiao Peng for a few times, took a deep breath, and endured the pain. She said, "I admit that I was mistaken. Judging from your bodyguards and your clothes, you must be a wealthy man! Although I don't understand why you drive such a shabby car, you should know! What are the consequences of offending a noble?"
"Noble?" Xiao Peng laughed. "What era is this? Nobles still exist! Nobles still exist these days! Bruh, he slapped her in the face for every word she said!"
The woman wisely shut up after hearing this. That bodyguard named Bruch was a fool, and he didn't know how to be gentle with women. He had just kicked her in the knee and it hurt like hell! He really knew how to give her a big slap!
But her eyes were filled with hatred as she looked at Xiao Peng! Just wait! It won't be long before I kill you! I want you to kneel before me, lick my toes, and beg for mercy!
Bruch said, "Boss, that's a bit off. You're also a noble! Have you forgotten that you're a viscount?"
Xiao Peng was stunned. "Isn't this just a title? What's the use? Who would buy into this?"
Bruch said, "Many people fall for this. Having a noble title means connections. Johannes Hooker became the mayor of Delft after first being awarded the title of 'Baron'! Although we're now calling it a democratic society, noble titles are still very popular! For example, if a commoner offends a noble, even though everyone is equal under the law, if the law really gets involved, the commoner will always be the one who suffers in the end."
"Oh." Xiao Peng suddenly realized: "So it's still the same feudal society!"
Bruch shrugged. "Why else would the Netherlands have a royal family? Do you think King William is just a decorative mascot like everyone else says? Those claims are just for the common people. Really? The king is still the king, and the nobles are still the nobles! Look at those who have been bestowed with noble titles. Aren't they filled with gratitude? It signifies great success!"
Xiao Peng curled his lips and said, "I don't feel that way!"
Bruch said, "Of course, Boss, you don't need such a fancy title."
Chen Zetao blinked: "Brother Xiao, why do I feel that all your men are moving closer to Ka Xin?"
Xiao Peng nodded. "Actually, I noticed that, too! Huh? The police are here? Pretty quick! Brother Chen, the police in Delft are pretty reliable, at least more reliable than the police in The Hague. The last time we had that car accident, the first ones to show up were the Delft police! Look, they're here in just a few minutes! We have to give them a thumbs up!"
However, Xiao Peng soon realized that he praised the Delft police too early.
Although three police cars drove over quickly, they couldn't get across the river and had to go around several large circles before they could get across. Moreover, the roads here were narrow and the police cars couldn't drive fast at all.
When Xiao Peng was about to fall asleep, the police finally arrived in front of them. Xiao Peng looked at his watch: Very good, forty-two minutes!
This is the efficiency of the Dutch police.
