77: Chapter 77 The So-Called Super Weapon

It was really no fault of Mr. Li for looking down on Moriarty and the others, because they were just too low-key, wearing clothes that didn't look like those of wealthy people at all.

They were just the simple, plain clothes that ordinary people would wear.

If placed in a crowd, no one would ever think they were people of wealth and power.

Hearing Mr. Li's disdain, Zhang Shan and the others didn't even say a word; they just looked at Wang Lei.

Wang Lei felt sweat break out on his forehead under their gaze, and he could only bite the bullet and explain.

"Ah, haha. Mr. Li, you don't understand. In our Zhili Country, the richer people are, the more low-key they are.

Rest assured, Mr. Robinson and Mr. Moriarty are absolutely the biggest arms suppliers here, and with me, Wang Lei, here, can't you rest easy?

We've known each other since you first met Madam Victoria. In all this time, when have I ever lied to you?" Wang Lei said hurriedly.

Only then did Mr. Li stand up and say, "The main thing is that I haven't taken over our family business yet. The greatest authority in our family lies with my father."

Wang Lei was a bit angry. Why didn't you say so earlier? Are you playing me? But he had to hold it in.

"Then I'll have to trouble Mr. Li to take us to see your father."

"Fine, for your sake, Wang Lei—if I can't trust you, who can I trust? Since that's the case, I'll take you to my father.

You guys came at a good time; my father happens to be home."

"Then I'll trouble you." Wang Lei looked like a total sycophant.

"Follow me."

Moriarty followed Mr. Li into a secret room. It turned out his father was taking stock of his goods.

"Mr. Robinson, these are all Mr. Li's treasures. Some of these weapons can't even be bought by the government.

We're in for a treat this time."

Wang Lei explained to Moriarty and the others.

Seeing how familiar he was with the weapons here, someone who didn't know better might have thought these weapons belonged to him.

"Oh, alright. Sorry, I haven't really looked into this before."

Zhang Shan told him quite bluntly that he didn't know this old Mr. Li.

Wang Lei was speechless; he didn't expect this Robinson to give him so little face.

"Mr. Moriarty, Mr. Robinson, every single piece of weaponry here could sell for tens of millions at our auctions in Zhili Country.

They are truly priceless, let me tell you."

"Oh, really? With things so priceless, Wang Lei, don't you need to buy a few for yourself?"

Zhang Shan looked at Wang Lei's expression.

He really couldn't bear to expose his true intentions.

Whenever Wang Lei stuck his butt up, he knew exactly what kind of fart he was about to let out.

He even dared to act like a big shot in front of him.

He really didn't think much of these few pieces of scrap metal; in his eyes, they were no different from a pile of junk, especially since his own weapons were world-class.

He wouldn't even care for the things in this warehouse if they were given to him as toys.

"It's just that Mr. Moriarty and Mr. Robinson are both here; how could I have the nerve to compete for items you both have your eyes on?

Besides, I don't have that much money to buy these weapons right now, don't you agree?

Even if I had the money, what use would it be to buy these? I don't need to expand my family's influence right now."

Wang Lei said with a fawning smile.

"To tell you the truth, although you speak highly of these weapons, I really don't think much of them at all.

Is there anything else that would actually catch my eye?"

Zhang Shan and the others stopped in their tracks and asked doubtfully.

"Hehehe, Mr. Robinson, you're joking! There should be something here that catches your eye."

Wang Lei was feeling uneasy.

He didn't expect that Moriarty and the others would look down on all these weapons.

But he believed there was definitely something here that Zhang Shan would be interested in.

As long as he was interested, he could achieve his goal.

"Mr. Li, are there any other weapons?

Our Mr. Robinson doesn't think much of your current selection at all.

Can you bring out your store's prized treasure?" Wang Lei said with some dissatisfaction.

Mr. Li hesitated for a moment, then walked into a secret room and brought out a sniper rifle.

Gu Nan stepped forward and took a look.

He thought this weapon was decent.

But he didn't know how powerful Zhang Shan's system was.

"Mr. Robinson, this weapon was obtained by my father through several channels; it's a rare treasure indeed!"

Mr. Li explained from the side.

Zhang Shan reached out to take the weapon, but his hand was stopped in mid-air by the so-called Mr. Li.

"It's not that I'm being stingy.

I just hope Mr. Robinson can be a little careful.

After all, this isn't something that can be obtained easily, and if it were to get broken..."

"What are you afraid of? If I break it, I'll just compensate you, won't I?" Zhang Shan said nonchalantly.

"Hmph, I suggest Mr. Robinson not brag here.

After all, this is a rare weapon in the world, and it's not something you can just pay for if you break it."

Hearing Zhang Shan's words, Mr. Li had only one feeling: this Robinson was a bit too arrogant.

Talking about compensation—what could he possibly use to compensate?

"Oh, what, are you worried that I can't afford to compensate you for this thing?"

Zhang Shan just hated it when people doubted him.

"It's not so much worry as it is fear; after all, this is quite precious to us.

It is our store's prized treasure, after all.

It's something that money can't buy."

Zhang Shan rolled his eyes.

For this piece of junk, to have someone treasure it like this—oh my, that's really something.

"Mr. Robinson, what do you think of this weapon?"

Wang Lei looked at Zhang Shan's unpredictable face with a hint of underlying worry.

He was afraid this wouldn't catch his eye.

"This? It is indeed a fairly good item.

After all, you don't really see this thing on the market anymore."

Zhang Shan gave his assessment.

Wang Lei was secretly overjoyed.

As long as he was interested in this item, he would have a way.

Although Zhang Shan despised this weapon, his goal was to test exactly what Wang Lei's intentions were.

So, he went with the flow and asked for the price.

"How much for this thing?" Zhang Shan looked at Mr. Li.

"Since Mr. Robinson was introduced by Wang Lei, I naturally won't overcharge you.

Let's say 1 million."

"One million? Why don't you just go rob someone?" Moriarty was instantly infuriated upon hearing the price.

"Mr. Moriarty, you're joking.

It's not that my price is high; the main thing is that it's hard to buy, don't you agree?

As the saying goes, rarity makes things valuable; a high price is to be expected."

Mr. Li explained with a straight face.

If it weren't for investigating Wang Lei's intentions, Zhang Shan would have been tempted to show him what a world-class weapon really looked like.
