Charlie had a hint of murderous intent on his face, but Luo Feng seed completely indifferent to it.
“Indeed, we can negotiate the price. I am very fond of, and indeed require, this Buddha statue,” Luo Feng said.
After Luo Feng finished speaking, Charlie gave him a once-over. He couldn’t fathom what was so special about this young man nad Luo Feng, who dared to speak so boldly in his presence.
Unable to suppress a smirk, Charlie headed straight for the elevator. As he walked away, he gestured strangely to the bodyguards behind him.
Just as Luo Feng was about to step forward and inquire if Charlie would like to discuss so terms, the bodyguards surged towards him, their intentions clearly aggressive.
Luo Feng had initially wanted to resolve matters without resorting to violence. After all, his primary aim was to peacefully acquire the cultural artifact and return it to Mr. Wu.
But since the other party had initiated hostilities, there was no reason for Luo Feng to hold back.
Dodging a swift elbow strike from behind, Luo Feng seized the opportunity as his attacker overreached. Grabbing the man’s fist, he effortlessly hoisted him into the air.
Using the man as an improvised weapon, Luo Feng dispatched the remaining bodyguards in quick succession.
In that brief mont of action, a larger group of ard guards converged in front of Luo Feng. The dark muzzles of their guns were now aid directly at his head, forcing him to halt his movents.
“Leave this place imdiately, or your head will burst open!” barked the captain of the security team.
Without entering into direct confrontation, Luo Feng took a piece of paper from his pocket and wrote down his phone number.
“This is my number. If your boss ever changes his mind and wishes to part with the Maitreya Buddha statue, he can call directly. We can discuss the terms.”
After placing the piece of paper next to the Buddha statue, Luo Feng calmly left the Cosmic Tower.
The security at the Cosmic Tower was indeed formidable. From the mont Luo Feng engaged in combat to the point where he faced the loaded guns, less than a minute had elapsed. Acquiring the Maitreya Buddha through unconventional ans seed nearly impossible.
After leaving the tower, Luo Feng visited the National Transport warehouse to ensure that there were no urgent matters requiring his attention. He then went to et Jardins and Alice, who both appeared quite excited.
“You both look happy. I assu the paynt from the other side has co through?” Luo Feng inquired, and Jardins nodded proudly.
“Of course! This is the first deal I’ve closed. If everything goes smoothly, I plan to fra the contract and hang it above my bed, revisiting it every day!”
Jardins’ face was filled with pride, and Luo Feng was genuinely pleased for him. Luo Feng had previously formulated a business plan for this wholesale market. With the warehouse now vacated, they could definitely sustain their livelihood by following the plan.
“By the way, wasn’t Maria quite busy today? How did she find the ti to send the paynt?” Luo Feng asked, recalling Maria’s hurried deanor earlier in the day.
Upon hearing Maria’s na, Alice’s expression instantly soured, and Luo Feng imdiately picked up on it.
Combining this with the news he had heard from Liu Jian, Luo began to suspect sothing.
“Yeah, Maria was really busy today. I was quite concerned, so I called her earlier, and she transferred the paynt,” Jardins explained, only to realize that Luo Feng had been focusing on Alice and had not been listening. “Hey, Luo Feng, are you even listening to ?”
“Yes, yes, of course,” Luo Feng quickly refocused and said, “So when do you plan to deliver the goods? They’ve already sent the paynt, so we should hurry.”
“Don’t worry, it’s all arranged. First thing tomorrow morning, Alice and I will deliver everything,” Jardins announced, his face still flushed with excitent.
But Luo Feng couldn’t share the excitent. He had found Alice, who was of great importance to Charlie. Perhaps he could even exchange her for the Maitreya Buddha. However, looking at Alice’s expression, Luo Feng couldn’t bring himself to make such a decision.
That evening, Luo Feng pulled Jardins aside and revealed Alice’s identity and the current situation. Upon learning that Alice was actually Charlie’s daughter, Jardins’ astonishnt was palpable.
“She has such a background?” Jardins couldn’t believe it.
“That’s why you should not take her with you for the delivery. Maria is one of Charlie’s trusted lieutenants,” Luo Feng advised..
