Chapter 1499 Da Pao (1/2)

Master Dao narrowed his eyes at Li Du and asked, ”When did you know about it?”

Li Du looked blank as he asked, ”Know about what?”

Master Dao pursed his lips and said, ”Enough. You can stop acting stupid now. Little guy, we know we have bumped into an expert. Please tell us, when did you learn that we are scammers?”

Now that they had laid everything out, Li Du stopped acting as if he did not know what was going on.

He smiled, ”I couldn't tell. Nevertheless, I always have to be careful, don't I? My buddies took photos of you and went out to ask people on the streets. You guys are quite famous around here. Then, it was easy to find out the rest.”

Master Dao's face changed and he said harshly, ”Those idiots cannot stop their blabbering!”

Xiao Liao said impatiently, ”D*mn, I don't care about what's happening out there. Master Dao, what do we do now?”

Master Dao gave Li Du a fist bump and said sincerely, ”Buddy, we didn't know better and provoked you. I hope that you will be forgiving and give us our money back.”

Li Du smiled. ”I wouldn't touch your money, but I won't let anyone touch mine either.”

Master Dao heaved a sigh of relief and said, ”That's good.”

Li Du turned to walk away. Master Dao was stunned. He stopped Li Du and said, ”Brother, didn't we agree that you won't touch out money?”

”That's right,” Li Du nodded, ”But I don't have any of your money on me. All I have is mine.”

Master Dao started to grow angry. He bit back a harsh retort and said, ”Brother, this time we provoked you, which was our brother's fault. We have to apologize to you. But it's not right to say that this money is yours, right?”

Xiao Liao's temper was not as calm. He raised his voice and shouted, ”Return the money!”

Li Du said, ”Why can't I say that this money is mine? I made it using my own wits. Why must I return it to you??”

”You cheated us of that money,” Xiao Liao said angrily.

Li Du replied, ”How did I cheat you? I have witnesses. If you don't believe me, you can call the cops. Let them handle this case. How about that?”

Master Dao laughed coldly. ”Are you acting dumb?”

Li Du lost his smile and said, ”I really can't understand. I used real money to buy those stones from you guys. Everyone saw that. When I cut them open, I found their value. Everyone saw that too. Then you guys got envious and offered to pay for them. Everyone saw that as well. So, when did I ever cheat you?”

Master Dao gave him a thumbs-up and said, ”Sure, we have to admit you're good. You left no loopholes. Nevertheless, this thing is a scam, isn't it? Are you going to deny that?”

Li Du looked at him and said, ”What do you mean deny?”

Master Dao said coldly, ”You've gone on the dark side for this. That's considered denying. For a few hundred thousand, you're getting in trouble. That's not worth it, right? You need to recognize that this is Hpakant. People die here every day.”

Li Du smiled. ”Are you threatening me? Are you saying that my fate is in your hands?”

Master Dao's expression was cold as he said, ”Not my hands, but our hands. Brother, it seems like you won't rest until you're in the coffin!”

He waved and a bread delivery van drove over. The door opened and about fifteen young men came down.

Li Du looked shocked, and Xiao Liao smiled. ”Now you're scared?”
