Chapter 17 Inaccurate Information (2/2)
The owner of the restaurant came over and announced, ”Alright, Hans's Chinese buddy is the winner. Lucas will have to pay the bill.”
”Not yet, it's not over yet,” Li Du said.
”Buddy, he has already collapsed, don't overdo it,” the owner grimly stated.
”No, we bet that the loser would have to pay for this meal, and we haven't eaten anything yet. Big Fox, come over here and start ordering,” Lu Du replied.
The crowd gasped at Li Du's request.
”Two servings of spicy tortillas, two tamales, and a Mexican style barbecue pork steak. Also, let's also try a couple of shots of your Emerald tequilas. Just this stuff for now,” Hans smirked.
The Mexican owner frowned. ”Do you know how much a shot of Emerald tequila costs?”
”Who cares? Someone will take care of the bill either way,” Hans said indifferently. ”Unless you guys can't afford it. Then we can call it a day.”
This immediately caused a wave of displeased murmuring in the surrounding crowd.
The owner of the restaurant stared at Hans fiercely. Finally, he nodded at the teenage server. Soon, an emerald glass of alcohol and multiple plates of food were placed in front of Li Du and Hans.
Several Mexicans sat at the next table with strained expressions. They were waiting for the opportunity to beat them up because, at this type of buffet, you had to finish everything you ordered.
However, the Mexican food there was very authentic, so Li Du happily finished the plates and continued asking for more.
”Sh*t, is this now an eating competition?”
”This time Lucas really lost big,” someone pitied.
”It's only a meal. How much can it be?” someone else asked.
”These dishes already cost over a hundred dollars for one serving, and they've ordered four! Although I don't know how much the tequila they drank before costs, this Emerald brand is high class and sells for twelve hundred dollars!”
Li Du drank the tequila as if he were drinking tea.
Hans felt as if his heart broke and immediately stopped Li Du. ”Yo, buddy, leave some for me.”
It was only after four servings that Li Du finally let out a satisfied belch. By then, the Mexican owner's expression could not have appeared worse. He was Lucas's cousin. He thought that his cousin had a very high alcohol tolerance, and had wanted to extort Li Du and Hans for a large amount of money. However, now, he could only force more debt onto Lucas.
Under the admiring gaze of everyone, Li Du and Hans swaggered away.
As they got into the car, Li Du's expression immediately changed. ”Big Fox, do you really find it amusing making me do the dirty work?” Li Du was not stupid. He could see that Hans was using him to teach that guy a lesson.
”Okay, I apologize. I have some issues with Lucas. However, he's one of the most well-connected treasure hunters, so I was also getting rid of one of our most powerful competitors,” Hans explained.
The Cactus Storage Company's auction would be held the day after tomorrow, and with Lucas down with alcohol poisoning for at least a week, there was no way he could attend it.
”Also, I've heard that Lucas contacted a couple of managers from the Cactus company. That bast*rd probably knows where the Yamaha is located.”
As Li Du continued to glare at him, Hans raised his hand and swore, ”I swear upon my profession, I'm not lying!”
At this, Li Du only let out a snort.
”Alright, then I swear upon my love for Hannah that I'm telling the truth!”
At this, Li Du finally believed him.
When Li Du woke up the next day, he was filled with a lot of energy from the food and alcohol he consumed the day earlier.
With not much time left, Li Du quickly toured the rest of the six storage units of the Cactus company. Even though he once again used up almost all of his energy, he was still unable to find the Yamaha!
Thankfully, they found the set of drums that the bikers talked about, along with a beautiful red grand piano in the unit next-door.
These two items were both quite nice, and probably were the most valuable items in those eleven storages. But Li Du was still frustrated about the missing Yamaha motorcycle!
