Xiao Peng had seen bars and inns before, but he had never seen one that opened up in a small inn. The inns that they found were exactly this kind of place.

As soon as he entered, Xiao Peng thought that he had walked into a bar. There were several people sitting at the bar drinking wine. When he saw Martin and Sean enter, one of them shouted, "Hey!" Martin, you're a vulture that smells rotten. Why are you here? Didn't you say you'd never go to California again? "

"Hey, Congdon, you here too? If you aren't from Nedwa, why did you come here? " Martin greeted the speaker. They greeted each other enthusiastically as if they had not seen each other in many years. In fact, each of them was eager for the other to go out and get hit by a car. After all, this was a direct competitor of this industry. Unless it was a partnership.

Congton, who was drinking, said, "Martin, why don't you go home quickly? We Nida Chinese won't stand on ceremony in the warehouse tomorrow!"

Martin sneered, "Congdon, when did you become a Californian? This local treasure seeker Nick doesn't even dare to say something like that. Aren't you being a little too arrogant? "

Congdon laughed out loud. "Martin, isn't this news of yours a bit too hard to spread? How could you not know about such a big matter? It's impossible for Nick to participate in this storage auction tomorrow. Or more accurately, none of his people will be able to make it. "

Martin frowned: "Is this true?"

Congdon laughed. "Well, who asked me to be kind? I'll tell you guys a piece of information for free. " In a warehouse auction, the most important information was information. For example, if a staff member of a storage company learned about the owner of the warehouse and didn't underestimate it, they could deduce what kind of goods were stored in the warehouse and use that information to bid. It could be said that for people like them, information was the most important asset.

Martin asked, "What information?" Would you tell me the good news so easily? "

Congdon said, "Of course, and it's good news! "Well, the thing is, last night Nick and his companions thought about going to the coast of Monterrey in the middle of the night, but they ran into two violent maniacs and tied them up in a tree for the whole night. They're all in the hospital now, so it's impossible for them to attend tomorrow's auction."

Unlike China, this place was not like China, where there were surveillance everywhere. Even in a tourist attraction like Monterrey, there weren't that many, which made it a lot harder to catch criminals. That's why the crime rate here was much higher than in China. Poor Nick.

Overall, the security situation in Western countries was not bad for the whole world. At least, it was better than those countries in war, but it was definitely not 'safe'.

This is because, in many Western countries, the establishment of a public security system is not possible because of restrictions imposed by the so-called 'human-rights law'. The vast majority of Western countries do not permit the installation of surveillance in public places. Even in a 'civilized' country like France, even a road recorder is a violation of human rights.

Because monitoring and other equipment is not legal popularization, so many areas of the crime rate is extremely low. Compared to many Asian countries, security is far worse. In the case of the Usurper, the crime rate is one of the lowest in the world. And this is possible because the state has the highest per capita police force in the world.

Sometimes the question of safety or freedom is a dilemma. Security is necessary, as is freedom. But it definitely did not include unrestricted freedom to cause trouble for no good reason. Those who shouted 'Absolute Freedom' every day should be thrown into the primitive world. That was the most free place.

What did it have to do with him? Knowing it wasn't safe yet, he still went for a stroll by the sea in the middle of the night? Give them two words — Serves them right!

After Xiao Peng and the others had settled down in the inn, Xiao Peng and Amelia went on a sightseeing trip. Martin and the others were now focusing all their energy on gathering intelligence. After all, they had suddenly decided to come here. They knew nothing about the warehouse's information, so how could they dare to bid directly for it without any intelligence?

However, Xiao Peng didn't care about that. He just wanted to have a good time and look around. He threw his mind avatar into the warehouse. Everything was clear now, wasn't it? Thus, Xiao Peng and Amelia had a great day of fun playing. They had to visit the strange house, and Amelia was even more curious about the scenery of the town. She drew all sorts of sketches and tried to make Xiao Peng a model. All in all, the two of them enjoyed the day to their heart's content. When they returned to the inn, it was already past eight o'clock. However, when Xiao Peng returned to the entrance, he saw Xi En standing there.

"Hey, Xiao, you're finally back. If you're not back, Martin and I might call the police." Sean said.

Xiao Peng was speechless. "Can you guys call me?"

Shaking his head, Sean whispered, "We were afraid that if we interrupted your romantic date, your sister would take off her sunglasses and kill us."

This was a good and powerful reason. In front of them, Amelia was still wearing sunglasses.

Xiao Peng hurriedly changed the topic, "What are you guys doing here?"

Sean said.: "Let's go for a drink. Martin and Hodgson are waiting for us."

Xiao Peng greeted Amelia, who was too tired to go to bed and had to wash up. Xiao Peng and Sean found Martin and Hodgson, who were sitting at a table drinking wine. They didn't seem to be in high spirits. Seeing Xiao Peng walk over, Martin waved his hand.

"Martin, what's wrong with you? "He doesn't seem very interested." Xiao Peng sat over.

Martin sighed, "I ran all day today and didn't have any useful information. I came here for nothing."

Xiao Peng laughed, "What does it matter? "So the lack of information can only be made up for by observation."

Martin said: "It would be amazing if we had your observation skills. Xiao, we need your help."

"Oh? "Why?" Xiao Peng took a sip of beer and looked at Martin.

Martin said, "Xiao, Sean and I have decided to join hands. We will each pay fifty percent of the total amount to be auctioned tomorrow."

"You two have finally cooperated? This is a good thing. " Xiao Peng nodded.

Martin said, "We also want to pull you along. Your observation skills are too strong. We want you to help us pick out the warehouses. "

Xiao Peng was startled, "Martin, that was just luck. It's impossible for me to guess correctly every single time. "Wouldn't it be a waste if I made a mistake?" Xiao Peng did know what items were stored in the warehouse, but he didn't know how much they were worth. If he were to bid high prices and saw that they weren't worth the money, then he would have gone blind.

Martin waved his hand, "Xiao, don't reject us so quickly. Just listen to what I have to say. We trust in your observation skills, so this cooperation isn't in vain. If there is profit, we will give you 20%! There's also something else for you. "

After saying that, Sean reached out his hand to Hodgson, who handed him a card. Xiao Peng curiously accepted the card and saw that it was printed with his profile picture. Xiao Peng took a look at it: Proof of membership of the Treasure Shoppers' Association.

"This is?" Xiao Peng looked at them with a puzzled expression.

Martin said: "Don't you want to earn a lot of money? In the Stellar Union, such a warehousing auction was very common. With this membership, he could ask the association to know where the warehousing auction was located. Sean and I acted as your referees and recommended you to join the association. In the future, you will encounter such a storage auction on your journey, so you won't miss it. After all, some auctions only allow storage auctioneers to participate. The first year's membership fee is our gift, and the rest is up to you. "

Xiao Peng smiled when he heard this. I've finally found an organization in the State of Stars and Strikes? Looking at the small green card, Xiao Peng said with a sigh, "The State of Stars and Stripes really has an organization for everything. There's even an association for picking up trash!"

However, after Martin heard this, he shook his head and said, "We are the Warehouse Pawnbroker Association. We are not the same association that picked up trash. They belong to the garbage collection classification association."

Xiao Peng was speechless. In his eyes, there really was not much difference between storing up for auction and picking up trash. In the end, Martin told him that the two were different.

However, since Martin and Sean were being so sincere, Xiao Peng couldn't just refuse, "Fine, it's a deal. Cheers! Let's sweep the auction house tomorrow!" I will do my best to find the treasure. After all, I still have a commission. "Hahahaha."

Hearing Xiao Peng's reply, Martin and the other two laughed and raised their glasses, "Cheers!"

However, Xiao Peng's voice was a little loud, so the people beside him heard it. Some of them were dissatisfied: "Heh, Chinese brat, what kind of crazy words are you spouting? Sweeping the auction house? "I won't ask if you agree!" Xiao Peng took a look and saw that it was indeed Congdon, whom he had met in the morning.

Congton and seven or eight other Taobao followers surrounded Xiao Peng and the rest. This time, there were quite a few people from Nida Hua as they stared viciously at Xiao Peng and the rest.

Martin stood up. "Congdon, what are you doing?"

Congton proudly said, "Do you even need to ask? We have to teach this arrogant Chinese kid a lesson! "Martin, let me tell you, you better stay far away or I'll take care of this with you!"

"Why don't you try and take care of it?" Martin wouldn't let him.

"Congdon!" Don't fight here! " the boss shouted.

Congton waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, we will go out to deal with this matter. Hua Xia, come out with us. Don't let us down." A man's conflict naturally needs to be resolved in a man's way. Don't tell me all of you Chinese men are so impotent? "

Xiao Peng smiled as he picked up the beer from the table and downed it in one gulp. He randomly grabbed the beer bottle with both hands and crushed the beer bottle in front of everyone's eyes! Xiao Peng looked at Congton with a faint smile. "Are you sure you want to have a conflict with me?"

"Oh my God." Congdon and his men exclaimed in shock. Is this Chinese martial arts? "

Sean widened his eyes. Although old Martin was a little surprised, he could still accept it. He knew that Xiao Peng was a brute force monster.

Congton was also startled. He looked at Xiao Peng and swallowed his saliva. Grasping a broken beer bottle? What kind of power was needed? If this were to happen to him, wouldn't that mean that his bones would turn into mincemeat? Congdon looked at the broken bottle on the floor and rolled his eyes. "I said we should use a man's method to solve this problem!"

Xiao Peng was stunned after hearing that, "Fist against fist, isn't that a man's way of solving problems? Since you have issued your challenge, I shall accept it. "

Congton said, "Are all the Chinese so barbaric?" How do you know how to fight back and forth? There were many ways to solve a man's problem! The fist cannot solve the problem. We have a better solution. "

"What method?" Xiao Peng was curious! This Congton was rather interesting. His grasp of the so-called 'three elements to the survival of hooligans' was superb.

Ah? What is the 'three elements to the survival of hooligans'? Using numbers to win, relying on strength to bully the weak, if you can't beat him, then run.

"I said I want to compete with you in drinking! Whoever drank first would become a coward! The loser shouted three times to everyone, "I am a coward, and will be in charge of treating all of you here today to wine!" Camden explained to Xiao Peng.

Hearing Congdon's suggestion, everyone cheered. To them, who won and lost were not the most important, because no matter who won or lost, they would still be able to drink free wine.

What was the best wine for them? It had to be free!

Xiao Peng nodded. "Then let's follow your suggestion." He picked up the beer bottle on the table. "When do we start?"

Congton saw Xiao Peng pick up the beer and shook his head. "Heh, we don't drink as much beer as these girls. If we want to compare, we'll use whiskey. Do you dare?"

He had noticed that Xiao Peng had been drinking beer here, which was why he asked him to change to whisky.

Everyone who drank often knew that it was taboo to drink together. If several types of alcohol were mixed together, it was easy to get drunk.

Xiao Peng's expression turned very strange after hearing what Congton said. "Are you sure?"

"Of course I'm sure, Chinese, do you dare?" Congdon was triumphant.

Xiao Peng scratched his head. "Then we can drink whatever we want right now, right? They'll have to pay the bill anyway, won't they? "

Congdon thought for a moment. "As long as it's whiskey in this shop."

"If you dare to die, I'll bury you!" Xiao Peng reached out his hand, "Boss, take out the most expensive whiskey in your shop, any brand will do! Give me five bottles of water to rinse my mouth first! "
