160: Chapter 157 Customized Equipment

Li Changsheng wasn't stupid enough to ask why the other person didn't go to the hospital, nor was he interested in taking a look; even if he knew surgery, he couldn't be bothered to help.

However, his eyes flickered as he observed the young man's craftsmanship.

"Brother Chang Wei, right? I just saw you working on something at the workbench?"

Li Changsheng pointed at the other's workbench, where there seemed to be a small integrated grinding and polishing machine, some small furnaces, and even some blacksmithing tools.

It had to be said that this repair shop could pass for a small car modification plant; if they had a pile of parts, blueprints, and a technician, they could probably even build a car themselves.

"I'm making a few car parts. Many of the cars that come here for repairs are very old models, and it's hard to find relevant accessories on the market. Even if you can find them, they're very expensive, so it's cheaper for us to just custom-make them here."

Chang Wei still scratched his head with a silly grin; Li Changsheng suspected there was a reason why this young man's hair was already thinning.

"So you can make small items. Could you do a private job for me? Don't worry, the price will definitely satisfy you, and it won't take up too much of your time. Just finish it within a month; there's plenty of time."

"Huh? What kind of thing?"

Chang Wei was clearly stunned. He hadn't expected this newly arrived Brother Li to have business for him, especially since he hadn't seen Li Changsheng's car.

Seeing the confusion on Brother Chang Wei's Face, Li Changsheng could only explain while gesturing, "It's like this..."

"It's a type of walking stick in appearance, but it has a button. When pressed, a section of a telescopic spear shaft pops out. However, the exterior of the walking stick needs to be covered in wood, making it look as much like a real cane as possible."

This was something Li Changsheng had wanted to make ever since his fight with the Japanese guy—a long-range weapon with a disguise. Usually, it would just look like he was carrying a walking stick when he went out, but it would become a spear once a fight started.

After all, that incident with the Japanese guy had served as a reminder; sometimes, not having a handy and portable weapon was truly inconvenient.

"The item itself isn't hard to make, but Brother Li, do you have any blueprints? I've never made this before, so I'm afraid I won't achieve the effect you want."

Chang Wei was still quite cautious; after all, the person before him was a guest whom even San-ye had to treat with courtesy.

"I'll print the blueprints for you in a couple of days," Li Changsheng said with a smile. Blueprints were easy to solve; he could contact some friends he had met during his previous job.

Working as a programmer, he occasionally dealt with people in software design and 3D gaming.

Li Changsheng could simply outsource it at a high price.

With the work efficiency back home, as long as the requirements and the money were right, the speed would be incredibly fast.

It was just that Li Changsheng's funds were tight right now. Most of the bounty from Shenzhen had been given to his grandmother, and he had gone abroad before he had the chance to collect the bounty from Chu Province.

This left his finances quite strained, relying only on his remaining US dollars. If there were really no other way, he could only exchange his remaining RMB for USD as well.

After chatting with Chang Wei for a bit longer, Li Changsheng waved goodbye and began his run.

The Golden Gate Bridge route is 2,780 meters long, with the main bridge spanning 1,967.3 meters. Given this length, Li Changsheng did indeed feel a sense of pressure running there from Chinatown.

By the time he reached the other side of the Golden Gate Bridge, steam was rising from his body, and his breathing had become erratic.

However, the scenery here was quite beautiful. Especially standing on the bridge and looking around, the field of vision was extremely wide, and standing in such an open place made one's mood exceptionally good.

After all, this was a filming location for many Hollywood movies. Many films, and even the TV series specifically memorializing Brother Dragon, had featured this bridge multiple times.

With its entirely red metal structure and the steel cables hanging vertically, it was clear that this bridge was indeed an iconic landmark.

In his pleasant mood, Li Changsheng couldn't help but take a few light steps and begin practicing his fist techniques.

Combining footwork with fist techniques, he switched between the Xingyi Twelve Shapes, the Five Elements Fist, and even interspersed Baji Quan.

Getting into the spirit of it, Li Changsheng even stood on the railing on his tiptoes, maintaining his balance while continuing his coordinated strikes.

A normal person would be scared half to death standing up there, but Li Changsheng was completely focused.

He had little fear of heights; the only thing creating difficulty for him was the strong wind that appeared on the bridge at any time, which greatly affected his balance.

At around seven o'clock, there weren't many vehicles on the Golden Gate Bridge, and even fewer pedestrians—only the occasional man or woman running in casual wear.

Originally, a Chinese man like Li Changsheng wouldn't have attracted much attention. Even though Li Changsheng was quite handsome, in the eyes of foreigners, most Asians seemed about the same.

But as Li Changsheng suddenly jumped onto the railing, he immediately attracted many people who stopped to watch.

There were actually many people who performed extreme sports on the bridge every year; after all, there was a reason why the population in America was so small.

But while they had seen extreme sports enthusiasts carefully wearing recording equipment, they had never seen someone jumping and turning so freely on the railing.

Moreover, he could even have both legs leave the railing from time to time, rapidly changing his leg positions in mid-air.

It had to be said that thanks to the vigorous promotion by the two "Brother Dragons" in the film industry over the years, as well as the globalization of a multitude of domestic kung fu movies, many places had a good understanding of kung fu.

It was even heard that there were extreme admirers of Brother Dragon in several countries; both the former and the latter "Brother Dragons" possessed unparalleled influence.

Among them, the Brother Dragon who died young had the greatest influence in America, with admirers ranging from high-ranking government officials to ordinary citizens.

Jackie Chan also had a significant say; for instance, in Hollywood, Brother Dragon's Face carried immense weight, and many famous stars greatly admired him.

There was even a cartoon specifically made about Jackie Chan.

And over in Japan, there were even more followers, such as mafia bosses. It was said that because Jackie Chan went there for some business, the mafia boss had hundreds of his subordinates line up in two rows to receive him with the utmost respect.

Even Jackie Chan's attendance at many award ceremonies would cause many winners to be wild with joy.

In the Universe Country to the north of China, they even once wanted to change Jackie Chan's nationality to their own, which showed the influence of these two.

As for other kung fu giants, such as Brother Dan and Brother Jie, they also had vast networks of contacts abroad.

It could be said that almost all the kung fu giants who could fight back then carved out huge markets and fame abroad.

This could be considered a relatively successful cultural export.

And now, seeing Li Changsheng's movements—which weren't particularly flashy but were very methodical—many foreigners who were out for a morning run couldn't help but start imitating him on the spot.

Several blonde beauties in tank tops and athletic leggings, with curvaceous figures, even took out their phones and started filming.
