Just as Li Qin was deep in thought, Hong Guang's car soon arrived at a villa area.
After the car came to a complete stop, Li Qin finally snapped out of his reverie.
"Have we arrived yet?"
Li Qin glanced out the window and found that the place looked very familiar.
"Yes, we've arrived!"
Hong Guang nodded, then got off the bus first.
Seeing this, Li Qin also got off the bus.
After getting out of the car, Li Qin first carefully looked around the villa area in front of him, and soon a look of realization flashed in his eyes.
"I didn't expect it to be here."
Li Qin couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
No wonder this place seemed familiar when I was looking at it from the car; it turns out Li Qin had been here before.
And it wasn't just once or twice.
Li Qin had visited the kind-hearted foreigners in the villa area in front of him many times.
In Li Qin's memory, the foreigners living here were all good people, each one speaking kindly and being very generous.
"Who knows, maybe we're meeting someone we know today."
Li Qin suddenly realized that he had visited almost all the truly wealthy foreigners living here.
The person I might be meeting this time is one of them.
Thinking of this, a strange smile appeared on Li Qin's lips.
Hong Guang, who had just gotten out of the car and was about to give Li Qin a brief introduction to the situation, inadvertently caught a glimpse of the sly smile on Li Qin's lips.
For some reason, I subconsciously shivered.
But when Hong Guang looked at Li Qin's face again, he found that Li Qin's face was full of incongruous smiles, and there was no strange expression at all.
Hong Guang frowned involuntarily.
He even began to doubt whether he had misread the image.
However, he quickly put the matter out of his mind because Li Qin spoke up;
"Mr. Hong, is the gentleman you mentioned living here?"
Li Qin pointed to the villa complex in front of him.
Hong Guang immediately smiled and nodded: "Yes, that's right. I've already contacted them beforehand. Let's go over there quickly."
Li Qin nodded and did not refuse.
Upon seeing this, Hong Guang immediately led the way, guiding Li Qin toward one of the villas.
Li Qin, who was walking behind, looked at Hong Guang with a subtle change in his gaze.
Li Qin knew all too well how arrogant the foreigners were when dealing with Chinese people, especially now that Hong Kong was still under their colony.
Moreover, the foreigners living in this place are all of unusual status.
Hong Guang's ability to strike up a conversation with the foreigners living here forced Li Qin to reconsider Hong Guang's capabilities and identity.
However, Li Qin soon realized that he had been overthinking things.
Because they didn't actually see the foreigner, but instead saw the foreigner's assistant, who was also a foreigner.
"Mr. Li, the Chevrolet I mentioned earlier belongs to Mr. Hudson, the owner of this villa, but Mr. Hudson is not here today."
This is Mr. Delapo, Mr. Hudson's assistant, who is in charge of the car transaction.
Upon meeting the foreign assistant, Hong Guang immediately began introducing the two of them.
When the foreigner Delapo saw Li Qin, although his face did not change much, a look of disdain flashed in his eyes.
During this period, Westerners generally looked down on Chinese people, especially those in Hong Kong.
They all felt they were inferior people.
But as soon as Li Qin spoke, the foreigner De Labo's expression changed instantly;
"Hello Mr. Delap, I am Li Qiu."
This time, Li Qin greeted the other party in English instead of Chinese.
Most importantly, Li Qin's spoken English has a strong London accent.
This is something that only people who have lived in London for a long time, or even grown up in London, can develop.
Upon hearing that familiar tone, De La Bo asked Li Qin with some confusion, "Mr. Li, have you been to England?"
Li Qin first nodded, then shook his head.
This left both De Labo and Hong Guang looking puzzled and confused.
"I haven't just been to England, but I've lived there for many years, and only recently came to Hong Kong from England."
Li Qin's words were obviously nonsense; he was deceiving the other party.
However, because of Li Qin's authentic London accent, neither De Labo nor Hong Guang had any doubts.
At this moment, Delapo's gaze towards Li Qin instantly took on a more intimate quality.
Although Li Qin appears to be of Chinese descent, anyone who grew up drinking English water cannot be treated as a purely Chinese person.
De Labo immediately abandoned Hong Guang and began chatting with Li Qin.
Fortunately, Li Qin had read many books about foreign countries, and also learned a lot about foreign countries through the internet in later generations.
They chatted enthusiastically for a while, and the other party didn't suspect anything at all.
As they chatted, De Labo became even more certain that Li Qin had grown up in England.
Because there are many things that only people who grew up in England can know and understand.
Little did he know that the future would be the information age, where even without leaving home, all one needed was a computer with internet access.
I can basically learn about things happening all over the world.
Li Qin quickly managed to completely intimidate Delabo through his words.
"Mr. Delap, as you know, I have just arrived in Hong Kong from England, and I plan to buy a car for convenience."
It's quite a coincidence that Mr. Hudson happens to have a car he wants to sell.
After rambling on for a while, Li Qin began to steer the conversation back on track.
"Since Mr. Hudson has entrusted this matter to you, what is your intention?"
Upon hearing this, De La Boe's face immediately broke into a smile.
He casually said, "This Chevrolet was only bought recently, and it has probably only been used by the public a maximum of twenty times. It's practically brand new."
In addition, Mr. Hudson went to considerable lengths to transport the car to Hong Kong, so the price won't be low.
At this point, Delap paused slightly, looked at Li Qin seriously, and continued, "However, Li, you are different from others, so I won't ask for an exorbitant amount."
Hearing this, Li Qin smiled faintly and said, "I understand what you're saying, De Labo. As long as the price is about right, I have no objection."
T
In fact, Li Qin would agree even if the other party offered a higher price.
In his mind, the money he was handing over was only temporarily being held by the other party.
In the future, this money will return to your hands.
De Labo was unaware of these things, and upon hearing Li Qin's words, a look of joy immediately appeared on his face.
Then the other party made an offer.
Despite De La Bo's seemingly kind words that he wouldn't arbitrarily raise the price, the final price he quoted was still significantly higher than normal.
This shows that the greed of these foreigners is insatiable.
Hong Guang, who had been acting as a transparent figure, couldn't help but show a strange look in his eyes after hearing the other party's offer.
Hong Guang looked at Li Qin, wanting to say something several times.
But seeing that Li Qin didn't seem to care at all, Hong Guang ultimately said nothing.
