Chapter 88 New Customers

"Paul, we should be followed." Ian said softly, and immediately said: "Don't turn your head and look, we continue talking, but be careful. Don't get in the car later, go to the Dragon Country restaurant first. I want to see who it is."

The two of them deliberately speeded up, but the feeling still did not disappear, which further proved Ian's feeling. When they arrived at the Chinese restaurant, there were fewer customers inside.

"Sir, we're almost off work." The waiter said to Ian.

But Ian didn't reply, but walked straight inside, walked to Xiuxiu, and said solemnly: "We have been followed. Can we take us to hide?"

Xiuxiu was a little surprised, but she quickly reacted and took Ian and Paul to the second floor.

Through the window on the second floor, Ian noticed that on a bench across the street, a black-haired man in a suit was sitting. The man stared at the door of the restaurant, and at first glance it seemed like he was waiting for someone.

"Paul, go out and I'll watch here," said Ian.

Paul quickly went downstairs and walked out. Ian saw clearly upstairs. As soon as Paul went out, the man got up and walked to the side. When Paul walked in again, the man came back and sat on the bench.

"Sir, why don't I call the police for you?" Xiuxiu asked with some concern.

Ian smiled and said, "Thank you, no need, let's leave now."

"But..." Xiuxiu's words were interrupted by Ian. Ian said: "I saw it clearly just now. That person is actually a friend of mine, but I haven't seen each other for a long time. Maybe I'm not sure it's me. Thank you again."

Ian and Paul came out of the restaurant and continued to walk towards the parking lot, and the man indeed followed.

"Boss, why don't I call Mr. Muto?" Paul was also a little worried. He hadn't experienced this situation yet, and he couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Ian smiled and said, "What? Are you scared?"

"No, how could you be afraid? We are two people, he only has one person. Even if he is afraid, he should be afraid of us." Paul cheered himself up.

Ian smiled and said nothing. The two came to the parking lot and started the car to leave. As soon as their car left, they saw the man who was following them coming out of the corner, stood there thinking about it and stopped for a while, then turned around and prepared to leave.

Crack! A slight sound was very clear in the underground parking lot.

The man stopped because he could hear that it was the sound of the bullet loading.

"Who are you? Why do you want to follow me?" Ian walked out from behind another car, pointing the gun in his hand at the man who was following him. The two were only more than twenty meters apart. Within this distance, Ian was 100% sure to hit him before the other party responded.

At the entrance of the parking lot, a car drove over quickly. With a squeak, it stopped less than one meter away from the man, and kept slamming the accelerator. As long as he made abnormal moves, Paul would crash into him without hesitation.

"Haha, Mr. Ian, I didn't expect you to be so alert." The man chuckled softly, then slowly raised his hand and signaled that he had no weapons in his hand.

Ian walked forward, looked at the guy carefully, frowned and thought for a while, and seemed to have seen him somewhere, but he had no specific impression.

"Who are you?" Ian asked again.

"I'm just a businessman who wants to talk to you about business. There's no need to point a gun at me, Mr. Ian, we've met you, did you remember at the military fair in San Diego? Mr. Ian?" the man asked with a smile.

After he said this, Ian remembered it. It was indeed at the expo, just before Ian showed Solim the hive bomb, it seemed that there was a black-haired man showing the power of his weapon to others.

Ian asked, "If you want to negotiate a business, you can contact me directly. Why do you want to follow me?"

The man said a little embarrassedly: "If I had your phone number, I would definitely call you directly, but you left in a hurry that day and I didn't have time to ask you for a phone number. I only wanted to follow you after seeing you today to see where you live, and plan to officially visit you tomorrow."

He didn't look like he was lying, but Ian didn't relax his guard, but pointed a gun at him and let him get into the car.

"Drive!" Ian ordered.

Paul immediately drove to the street. He knew that he could not go back directly, so he drove around the surrounding streets.

"Haha, this is the first time I've been pointed at a gun and negotiated a business." The man said relaxedly. He was already sure that Ian would not shoot him. If he wanted to shoot, it would be much more suitable in the underground parking lot just now.

"You kept saying you wanted to talk about business, what business do you want to talk about?" Ian asked.

"You should see the hive you brought that day. All the arms dealers except Solim are very interested. I am one of them, so I want to..."

Before the man finished speaking, he saw Ian shook his head and said, "No, I have signed a contract with Solim Company and handed over the production rights of the hive to Solim Company, so even if I still have a hive, I can't hand it over to you."

The man was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I guess the money Solim Company will definitely not be less, right?"

"This is a trade secret, I won't tell you." Ian curled his lips.

The man hesitated and said, "Since that's the case, I'll just say it. If you hand over the hive to me, I can give you at least 3 billion US dollars. I guess Solim will not give you so much."

Ian was stunned and asked, "Is that thing that valuable?"

"Of course, it won't be worth 3 billion US dollars, but the hive technology is indeed better than the best drone technology in the world today. If it is really sold, it may be the top 2 billion US dollars. However, if you want to buy real good things, of course the price will be higher than others." The man said.

Ian recalled what Trump said at the beginning. If it was really sold publicly, someone might have paid 5 billion US dollars.

"I just have a weapon prototype and don't have real technology. How much is it worth?" Ian also wanted to know how much that weapon could be worth.

"My God, you won't be suppressed by that old fox Solim again because of this, right?" the man slapped his head and said.

Ian smiled and said, "You guessed it."

"If you gave me the hive at the expo, I might give you a price of 3 billion US dollars, but now you have signed a contract with Solim. Even if I get the hive, I can only use the hive technology to develop other products, so I can only give you a billion US dollars in price. How about it? Do you still have a hive?" The man's words made Ian feel fooled.

"It seems that I'm fooled, haha, but now I don't have a hive anymore, and your business is probably going to be ruined." Ian shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly.

"Please listen to me. Since you can get a weapon like the hive, I believe you must have a very powerful energy behind it, so I hope to contact you. If you have other products, I will also give you a better price than other companies to buy it." The man said, taking out a business card from his pocket.

Ian glanced at it and asked, "Jie Shi Zhang?"

"Yes, Mr. Ian, but you can call me - Zhang Shijie." The man said his name in Chinese.

Ian felt a little uncomfortable after reading it several times, but Zhang Shijie immediately praised Ian for his talent in learning Chinese.

"I'll ask you a wise man, are you from Long?" Zhang Shijie asked.

Ian shook his head and said, "We are all businessmen, right? I do have a product in my hands. If you can give a good price, I don't mind giving this product to you."

Zhang Shijie's eyes lit up and he immediately said, "Of course, what is that?"

Ian took out a circular object the size of a glass ball from his arms and placed it in his palm for the other party to watch.

"Is this?" Zhang Shijie looked at this black spherical object and didn't quite understand. Is it a bomb?

"This is a powerful poison gas bomb. After falling to the ground, it will immediately explode into a large area of ​​poison gas. Even if it is just a little inhaled, there is absolutely no possibility of being alive." Ian said.

Zhang Shijie immediately moved his body back and said in surprise: "You will carry such a dangerous thing with you? You are lying to me, are you?"

"Solim didn't believe in the power of the hive at the beginning, but did I deceive him? Instead, he lied to me." Ian said.

Zhang Shijie hesitated for a moment and said, "If its power is really as strong as you said, I am willing to pay ten million US dollars."

Maybe the price of the hive was too high before. When Ian heard about the 10 million US dollars, he felt a little disappointed, but Zhang Shijie said: "If you have the complete technology of this thing, the price will be much higher, but this thing does not have much advantage except its compression technology. After all, poison gas is a chemical weapon banned by countries around the world."

At this time, Ian suddenly realized that these arms dealers actually didn't care much about the lethality of weapons. What they cared more about was the technology of weapons. As long as this weapon had certain advantages, it would be enough to make them pay a very high price. In addition to selling weapons, these people participated in the Weapons Expo, in addition to selling weapons, they had a bigger purpose, which was to find ways to get more advanced weapons and improve their own technology of producing weapons.

Thinking of this, Ian smiled and said, "Actually, besides the honeycomb and this poisonous gas bomb, I have another product now."

"Oh?" Zhang Shijie asked in surprise: "You didn't put all your weapons in this car, did you?"

Ian smiled and said, "Haha, it's just a coincidence." Then Ian pretended to take the following from under the seat and took out the small cloud bomb.

"You have to be careful about this thing. It's very powerful and is a time bomb." Ian introduced.

After hearing that it was just a time bomb, Zhang Shijie immediately said helplessly: "Mr. Ian, are you making fun of me? Do you think I, as an arms dealer, would I buy a time bomb? I can make a few calls, and I can get a car of bombs like this. I bet that the power is definitely greater than the power of your bomb. And you carry poison gas bombs and time bombs with you. Aren't you afraid of the police coming to cause trouble?"

It can be heard that Zhang Shijie seemed a little dissatisfied with Ian's attitude, thinking that Ian was humiliating him and sending him with ordinary bombs. However, after he said this, Ian was a little worried. What is this guy's identity? Is he really an arms dealer? Could he be sent by Solim, or has a government background? At first Ian didn't think about this because he said that he had met himself at the expo, so he relaxed his vigilance.

Ian thought for a while and said, "To be honest, I am not a weapon merchant. These things have been made by me after thinking about a lot of solutions. If you call the police, I will definitely be in trouble, but I can guarantee that even if the police find me, I will have many ways to deal with them."

"No, no, Mr. Ian, you misunderstood. I am not your enemy. I just want to buy your weapon products. You don't have to worry so much." Zhang Shijie quickly explained.

"That's the best, and I don't mean to be joking. This time bomb is indeed very precious. I only have one now. If your price is not satisfied with me, I will never sell it to you." Ian said seriously.

Seeing Ian's expression was very serious, Zhang Shijie asked, "You mean, this thing is really a good thing? But why can't I see it?"

Ian smiled and said, "If you can see it, it is not a good thing. This bomb is a small cloud bomb. Its most powerful thing is not its power, but... Whether it is an airport or anywhere, all the detection instruments currently cannot detect it. Simply put, if you bring it into the White Palace, as long as the guards do not search, you can easily blow up the White Palace."

"Hmm?" Zhang Shijie asked with some difficulty understanding: "Take it to the White Palace? Are you saying that those security instruments cannot detect it?"

Ian nodded and added: "It's not just a security instrument, but for all detection instruments, this thing is an invisible item."

Now Zhang Shijie understood it. His mind was filled with two words "invisible". Could it be that there is any special material on the surface of this bomb? If it is true, then...

Zhang Shijie felt a little excited. Whether it was true or not, he had to find a way to try it. He pretended to be very calm, shook his head and said, "That's impossible. Although the current technology can interfere with the scanning results of the detection instrument, it is really invisible. Unless you can let me try it, if it really has that effect, my price will definitely satisfy you."

Ian smiled and said, "How do you want to try?"

"This is fine. I can contact a subordinate and ask him to send an instrument. Just a little test will tell." Zhang Shijie said.

"Yes, but you have to stay in the car." Ian said. He did this and left a hostage for himself. What if this guy called the police? Although it was not scary to go to prison, it would still be troublesome to escape.

Zhang Shijie understood Ian's idea and took out his mobile phone to edit a message. The content was very strange, roughly meaning, come to me and look at my left hand.

"Isn't this a secret code?" Ian asked half-jokingly.

Zhang Shijie also smiled and said, "Haha, of course it's a code, you'll know later."

Ian had nothing on the surface, but he had already made enough preparations in his heart. After a slight change, he would kill Zhang Shijie first, then throw out the poison gas bomb, and then take the opportunity to escape.

"Paul, park your car at the front entrance of the park." Ian told Paul to park the car while saying to Zhang Shijie: "Give me your phone."
