120 Chapter 120 : Best Weapon Dealers

It's the start of the chilly season in Japan and people start to wear the most fashionable trench coats and same colored puffer jackets.

With all the black trench coats being worn, it's pretty hard to distinguish who are the members of a criminal organization or just plain fashion savvy.

Outside a tall building with very eye-catching gold crested calligraphy with the word 'Honor', a few men wearing thick black trench coats and sunglasses were waiting outside along with their high-end cars. Some have tattoos on their necks and hands which causes some bystanders to quickly evade them and move along.

With their arrogant demeanor and threatening aura, one could already guess that they are part of a shady business.

One of the men with dirty blond hair suddenly burst out and shouted, "Damn! This is a slow day!"

When the innocent bystanders heard the sudden shout, they quickly dispersed and escaped where they can't be seen by the shady men.

"Oi. You are scaring the tourists." A man smoking a cigarette and sitting in the driver's seat nonchalantly scolded the blond man.

The blond man stretched and grunted loudly as no one can hear him.

"Kazuya, I heard from the boss' secretary that we're having an important visitor today. Seems to be a rich dude from China." the blond man inquired and went near the smoking man.

"Not just a random rich dude, Hiroto. He's the director of a famous top celebrity breeders agency." Kazuya cheaply commented. He heard a lot about the showbiz industry in his own country. It's full of dirty scandals and secrets. He thought that it would be the same in any country since these actors and actresses are not holy like what their fans thought they were.

Since their visitor owns a top agency, he concluded that the important visitor is a dirty old man with a huge belly. Just like those crazies that would always turn to yakuzas to get some help but in the end, they will betray a yakuza's trust once they got what they want. "Pathetic." he loudly expressed his thoughts.

"This visitor seems to be a generous man. He helped a lot of millionaires in the country before. It looks like he's a jackpot for our boss." Hiroto happily muttered while he checks Xing Hongqi's profile on the internet.

He was browsing and scrolling quickly when he suddenly stumbles on a very good looking picture of Hongqi with the rest of the top actors and actresses in his company.

"Woah! He's handsome!" Hiroto loudly blurted and shoved his phone in front of Kazuya's face.

Kazuya irritably looked at his mobile phone. His eyebrows raised when his conclusion wasn't right. He didn't expect that the important, rich visitor is a young and handsome man. It is rare to see billionaires in their young days.

"I bet he bedded all these female celebrities." Hiroto has that smirk on his face while he zooms in each of the female stars in the photo.

Kazuya peeked at what Hiroto was doing. He also agreed to what Hiroto said. A handsome, rich dude like that could get anything he wants. "This man makes me jealous." he honestly commented.

"We will see him in an hour. I'm really curious if he really looks like that in person." Hiroto mumbled. He knew a little bit of Mandarin so he could slight understand some characters. While he scrolls for more articles, he stumbled on to Xing Hongqi's 'treasured' wife.

His eyes glowed when he saw the perfect face of Xing Hongqi's wife. "Wow~ so pretty. This man really is the epitome of what I want in life." He keeps on zooming the photos of Xiulan. Unlike the beauties in his country, this wife of Xing Hongqi seems to be a budding innocent flower. It makes a man want to protect her.

"What are you looking at?" Hiroto curiously asked when he saw Hiroto's tantalizing eyes were glued on his mobile phone's screen.

"That rich dude's wife. It makes any man want to protect her. So pretty." Hiroto showed Xiulan's photos to Kazuya and he completely agreed. He nodded and commented, "This woman looks too nice to be his wife."

Hiroto took his phone back and simply expressed, "Well, these days rich men just get everything even though they don't deserve it."

After an hour of waiting, Hongqi and his team finally arrived in the Goda clan's turf.

Goda clan's headquarters in Kyoto is placed in the heart of the city. The exterior of their building is mixed by both traditional and modern design. Half of it has a typical office building exterior while the other half is a traditional Japanese house with a complete large garden and pond.

Nowadays, the Goda clan's master, Eiji Goda stays in Kyoto instead of staying in Tokyo. It seems that he's fond of his new business in Kyoto and decided to live here until he's bored of it. He's old and currently, his legs are disabled.

Though many want to kill and betray him and get the power of his position, they really can't do it since the money they are getting was all coming from his smart brain.

He invents powerful weapons that could be used for war and battle. Each year, he crafts a new powerful tool. He was a genius weapon maker. He won a lot of awards and the government treasures his craft since it was a huge asset for them in case war happens.

Overall, Eiji Goda can't die yet since he's creations are very important.

"Good afternoon, young master Xing. Master Goda has been waiting for you." the secretary with a weird 50:50 hairstyle greeted them.

Hongqi only nodded and went inside and followed the secretary. The men guarding the place all looked at him sharply.

Hongqi wasn't afraid of any of this. He was sure that they will never touch him. He went to their turf with only him, Secretary Yang Bo, and ten bodyguards. In case a bloody discussion happens, an emergency call is connected to his country's government and this could start a war between the two countries. After all, Hongqi is an important figure in his country.

When they finally arrived in Eiji Goda's room, the smell of a freshly extracted green tea lingers and different weapons are placed on an old mahogany table. A great view of the pond can be seen and the calming sound of water coming out of the bamboo accents can be heard.

"You may sit, young master." the secretary said and went beside Eiji Goda's wheelchair.

The old man didn't say anything when Hongqi arrived. He only looked at him with a smiling face and observed him with his keen eyes.

"Good day, master Goda. Thank you for letting me have the chance to meet you." Hongqi tried to be the friendly one in this meeting.

"Same to me as well, young master Xing. I knew a lot about the greatness of the Xing family but those were in the past. In modern times, your name has been greatly praised by everyone. It's an honor meeting the man with the Mida's touch." The raspy old voice of Eiji Goda resonated inside the traditional room.

Hongqi was pleased to hear what Master Goda said about him. Those words coming from a great inventor is really important. "Thank you, master."

"I heard you got married recently to an ex-general's daughter. Very good. That's better than getting married to a puny starlet." the old master Goda vehemently commented. "My youngest grandson got married too. He was the successor of one of my biggest businesses. I thought he would marry someone from another influential family just like the rest of the men in the Goda family. But the fool married a starlet and god knows how many men that slut already bedded. She's not even useful to the family. What a waste of money spent on their wedding."

Hongqi was not sure how to answer or what to comment on his remarks. They think quite alike and it seems a normal attribute to power-hungry people that each of their movements must be an asset for them.

"I see." that's the only thing he could utter since he was not sure yet of Master Goda's attitude to guests.

"He's using his heart and his pen*s in this kind of matter. To hell with that kid. You should try to talk to him and put his mind on the right track. Love is not useful in business. Especially in this line of industry, true love can never happen to beasts like us." the old man was quite bitter in his statements but he has a point. A dirty and shady business like this doesn't need those fairytale-like stories.

"Anyway, I talked too much. That brat just made me angry." The old man tried to calm down again. "Regarding the tools and weapons you wanted, you must know it's billion worth."

Hongqi finally released a sigh of relief when their topic went to his agenda. He thought he needs to comment about love when he didn't even confess yet.

"Yes, master. Though the money is ready, I'm only here to check on the newest stuff since I'll be opening the security company soon. It would be better if I get some of the latest weapons to showcase in the opening." Hongqi explained in detail and made sure to keep an eye to eye contact with the huge boss.

The old master only nodded and touched his chin. "Well, you are right. That is a good tactic. You sure have the best interests and trust in my art."

"I respectfully adore all your creations. Though my family might be weapon makers in the past, that was in the olden times. We still do build some but of course, the details of your craftmanship are better than ours. We also wanted to use your name." Hongqi mentions.

"Aren't you afraid that your government and the people might get angry that you're getting some goods from this country? As far as I remember, some are still bitter because of the history." the old master questioned. Back in 1937–45, due to the war, a lot of Chinese were killed by the Japanese army. A lot of people are still angry by this and has caused major turbulence when it comes to collaborations.

"I am. Though my company uses weapons from different countries like Russia, the USA, the middle east and my own country. I know very well the backlash I will get but please remember that I'm an oligarch. I will get backlash for a few days or months from the people but it won't stay forever. I have the government on my side whatever it takes." Hongqi has that evil smirk in his handsome face.

The old man's eyebrows raised. He was surprised by this young billionaire's answer. He never thought that a young man like him could be so fearless.

He smiled at Hongqi and raise his hands to his secretary to get the papers for a new contract. "I like the way you think. I hope to have more collaborations with you." He never let any of his business pals see his new creations, but with this smart and evil kid, he would gladly share it.
