Chapter 348 Are you threatening me?
As soon as Lomachenko finished speaking, his bodyguards surrounded him and stood behind him.
"I know you're quite skilled!" Lomachenko said. "But I think you might not know that my bodyguards are all from 'Lavender', not the little hooligans from Marseille!"
Thanks to the former Soviet Union, Ukraine has numerous special forces, all under the Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs. Besides the "Golden Eagle," which was forcibly disbanded, there are also the "Alpha," "Omega," "Falcon," "Titan," and others. "Lavender" is one of two special high-altitude infantry battalions under the Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs. Those who come out of this unit are all tough guys.
Xiao Peng laughed: "Are you threatening me?"
"A threat?" Lomachenko shook his head. "I just want to work with you. Didn't you see I offered $100 million? If it was a threat, I wouldn't take the money."
Xiao Peng took a sip of champagne: "Shouldn't I thank you for this?"
Lomachenko took a sip of champagne and shook his head. "That's not necessary. I just hope we can have a pleasant cooperation! Xiao, you're a smart person. I think you'll make a better choice. This is Ukraine. All kinds of weird things happen all the time. It's possible that a wealthy Chinese man overdosed and fell from a building!"
Xiao Peng grinned. "I'm sure now that you're threatening me. Do you rely on a group of 'Lavender' bodyguards? Have you ever considered this? I don't care even if you have more powerful bodyguards. I just need to control you!"
Lomachenko was stunned after hearing this, then burst into laughter. "They all say Chinese people have no sense of humor, but that's because they don't know you, Mr. Xiao. You're really hilarious! You mean you can get past all these bodyguards and control me? Are you so confident in your skills? How about this?"
After he finished speaking, the two bodyguards took out pistols from their pockets, placed the guns in front of them with their hands hanging down and crossed, and looked at Xiao Peng with eyes full of threats and disdain.
Xiao Peng shook his head: "Mr. Lomachenko, are your clothes sturdy?"
"Huh?" Lomachenko didn't understand what Xiao Peng meant and looked at him with a frown.
Xiao Peng suddenly threw the champagne glass in his hand at a bodyguard with a gun. The bodyguard smiled contemptuously and tilted his head to avoid the glass thrown by Xiao Peng. When he turned around, he found that Xiao Peng had disappeared!
Xiao Peng took advantage of the moment he dodged and rushed towards another bodyguard with a gun. The bodyguard tried to raise his gun, but a sharp pain came from his arm! He didn't know what was happening, and his arm felt a sharp pain and then he lost consciousness. Xiao Peng grabbed his clothes and turned him around, hitting the other bodyguards like a stick.
Before the bodyguards could understand what was happening, Xiao Peng threw them to the ground like bowling balls.
Lomachenko felt his feet lifted off the ground before he could even see what was happening. When he came to his senses, his face almost turned green. He finally understood why Xiao Peng asked him what he meant by "strong clothes": Xiao Peng grabbed his collar with one hand and pulled him out of the rooftop. As long as Xiao Peng let go or his collar broke, Lomachenko would turn into "Superman" and kiss the ground, and his life would come to an end.
Lomachenko's pupils dilated. Is this something a human can do?
The bodyguards who had been knocked away by Xiao Peng climbed up from the ground. Seeing this scene, they were also shocked and drew their guns and aimed at Xiao Peng. However, Xiao Peng was not nervous at all: "Mr. Lomachenko, tell your men to put down their guns. If I get shot, you will fall too!"
Lomachenko quickly shouted at his bodyguards: "Damn it, put down your guns, are you trying to kill me? Throw your guns on the ground! Throw them on the ground!"
After hearing his words, his bodyguards put their guns on the ground. Lomachenko saw that the bodyguards had put down their guns and said to Xiao Peng, "Mr. Xiao, my men have stopped. Can you take me back?"
Xiao Peng said with a gloomy face: "Now tell me about my friends!"
Lomachenko quickly waved his hands and said: "I didn't do anything to them. They are watching the show in the casino now."
Xiao Peng sneered after hearing this. "My company has two ironclad rules for its employees: no drugs, and no gambling. How could they possibly go to a casino? Get my people to show up in front of me right away. I'm really tired of holding you up like this. If I can't hold on and let go before they show up, you'll be in trouble."
Lomachenko quickly said something to one of his men, asking him to bring the man back quickly. He was really afraid that Xiao Peng would let go, otherwise he would be turned into a meat pie!
The waiting time was also very boring. Xiao Peng thought for a while, took out his phone and made a call.
The first one was to Chen Zetao, telling him about the situation he had encountered.
Lomachenko was right: he was indeed an upstart with no background, but that didn't mean he had no connections! He called Chen Zetao and told him what had happened.
Chen Zetao was also a little confused after hearing this. What the hell? Someone was planning to forcefully acquire shares in Xiao Peng's company? This guy was pretty ruthless!
China is such a big country, giving away ships and people, but they don't dare to talk about buying shares in Xiao Peng's company. Are you forcing it to buy shares? Let him handle this matter. Contact the Chinese Embassy in Ukraine immediately!
However, he gave Xiao Peng an idea: let him invest, take his money! Give him 51% of the company's shares! Then take the 100 million US dollars and leave. The company can just give it to him directly.
Lomachenko is also stupid. He doesn't understand at all what's so great about Xiao Peng's ocean salvage company. It's not because of their equipment or their resources, but because of Xiao Peng's ability to find shipwrecks!
You've offended Xiao Peng, and you still want him to help you make money? What a pipe dream!
He told Xiao Peng not to be nervous and that he would contact someone to help solve the problem immediately.
What is Xiao Peng nervous about? Is it Lomachenko who is nervous now?
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Peng felt more and more uncomfortable the more he thought about it!
I have had a rough ride since I came to the Black Sea. My ship was seized by Türkiye and I was bullied by oligarchs in Ukraine. What the hell is going on?
Thinking of this, he made another call.
Ivan's voice came when the phone was connected: "Xiao, I wouldn't dare call you if you didn't call me. I know about what happened in Turkey and I'm very sorry."
Xiao Peng sneered and said, "Ivan, you don't have to apologize to me. Now it's my turn to apologize to you. I won't salvage this boat anymore. I'm going back to France now."
"Why?" Ivan asked, puzzled. "Didn't you already pass through the Turkish Straits and reach Ukraine, and even sent people to search for the sunken ship? Why are you suddenly going back? We still have high hopes for you back home!"
Xiao Peng shook his head and said, "Ivan, I'm almost dead now, and I'm still helping you salvage the ship? There are people in Ukraine who want to kill me!"
Ivan's voice lowered: "Who is it? He's looking for death!"
