Chapter 591: A Rumor

Translator: Nyoi-Bo StudioEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Harry Winston Jewelers was not a landmark building but it sure was famous enough. One just had to hail a cab outside the hotel, tell the driver, ”Harry Winston,” and he would know where to go.

The African-American driver looked very trippy. After Li Du had gotten in, the driver said, ”If you wanna, you can smoke in the car, sing in car or drink in the car.”

Li Du was puzzled, ”Huh?”

From the rearview mirror, the African-American driver spotted Godzilla and Big Quinn sitting in the backseat. He added, ”Please don't get mad at me if I say anything wrong and have your men to beat me up!”

Li Du laughed and said, ”You're mistaken. That wouldn't happen. My men are very mild -tempered. Both of them are nice guys.”

The African-American driver grinned. ”If I had a body like theirs, I don't think my temper would be good.”

Li Du said, ”Relax, we are all nice people. You as well.”

The African-American driver laughed light-heartedly. ”Yeah, of course. We're all nice people, all God's obedient lambs. Oh ya, what business do you have at Harry Winston's?”

The cab drove up the street, which was filled with cars and pedestrians, so it couldn't go very fast. There were many traffic lights, so the cab had to stop often. This was why the cab drivers in Las Vegas were very good at chatting with passengers.

Hans had reminded Li Du that the public security in Sin City was not very good. Recalling that, Li Du said vaguely, ”I'm thinking of buying something.”

The cab driver said, ”To buy jewelry? Then you're going to the right place. Have you heard that Harry Winston is going to close? If that's the case, the jewelry will probably go for cheap.”

Surprised, Li Du asked, ”Harry Winston's closing? How could that be?!”

Although the jewelry shop he was going to was not the most luxurious shop in the world, it was well-known and well-regarded in the jewelry trade. It was unlikely to be shutting down.

The African-American driver shrugged. ”You didn't know? Ha, of course people are still not really aware of it. These d*mn investors are way too sneaky. Right now they are busy shifting their assets . . .”

Li Du asked, ”How do you know this?”

The African-American driver just shrugged and said, ”Yeah yeah yeah, how do I know? Because I know everything. I'm the know-it-all super driver NJ.”

This answer was no better than not having an answer.

Li Du took out his mobile phone to search for news on Harry Winston. He knew nothing much about luxury goods and now that he was entering this trade, he would need to find out more.

Yes, he had plans to enter the luxury goods trade. His experience searching for opals made him realize that it was a pity to only use the little bug for storage auctions. There were other jobs more suitable for it.

This included going deep into the ground, going into the ocean and going into the mountains to look for gems or treasures.

There was a lot of news on Harry Winston online, so he filtered the search to include the term ”closing.” There was still a lot of news but most of it was from click bait sites and did not seem legitimate.

After searching for a while, a news item caught Li Du's attention.
