When Hong Dali left the room, Jiang Qianxue hurried to catch up.

They finished their meal and went out.

While they were thinking about where to go, Luo Qiang contacted them from the pawnshop. Once the call was connected, it was evident that Luo Qiang was in despair. “Boss, I quit! I want to tender my resignation! I cannot take it anymore. Sob, sob, sob!”

“Eh, Brother Luo Qiang, what happened?” Once he saw Luo Qiang’s expression, Hong Dali was immediately amused. “What has happened to you? Your hair is messy and you have dark eye rings. What happened?”

“What could have happened.” Luo Qiang said forlornly, “Hurry up and come to the pawnshop. I can’t hold on anymore…”

It seemed to be rather serious this time!

He was not in a hurry to get to Star Harbor anyway, so he decided to go to the pawnshop to take a look. “All right. I will go over now. Wait for me.”

So they all got onto the spacecraft and set off.

On the spacecraft.

Jiang Qianxue trembled as she held on to Hong Dali’s left arm. Tang Muxin held on tightly to Hong Dali’s right arm. The situation was tense and volatile. Li Nianwei and everyone else stood at the back, chilled. It was a very uncomfortable ride.

Luckily, they soon reached their destination. At least no one started fighting on the spacecraft…

Once they stepped into the pawnshop, Hong Dali was stunned…

The outside of the pawnshop looked fine, but the inside…

Simply put, the inside of the pawnshop was like a huge empty warehouse—from the walls to the second level, to all the furniture and appliances, everything was broken into pieces and scattered all over. Nothing was left intact. Nothing except the toilet Luo Qiang was hiding in…

On the ground in the center of the warehouse was a big man more than four meters tall. The corners of his mouth were curved up slightly in a smile that was evil yet charming. He was in the midst of a confrontation with a two-meter tall man in front of him, who wielded a black knife. Judging from their expressions, it seemed that the four-meter-tall man was stronger. After all, his expression was very relaxed, while the man holding the black knife looked like he was facing a mortal enemy.

Jiang Qianxue was momentarily stunned when she saw the burly four-meter-tall man. But she glanced at Hong Dali and soon composed herself.

What was the situation here?

Hong Dali looked at the two men curiously. Luo Qiang rushed forward and clung onto Hong Dali’s thigh, wailing. “Boss, I cannot take it anymore! Fire me! If you won’t do it, I’ll leave by myself!”

“Eh?” Hong Dali looked down at Luo Qiang, then looked at the great Mister Gate and second greatest Mister Eagle Eye. He bent down and picked up a brick, then sternly said, “The two of you bullied my Brother Luo Qiang last night?!”

It was a comical scene.

A four-meter-tall giant was in a confrontation with a two-meter-tall man, then a 1.75 meters man with a brick in his hand appeared. Although short, his presence was in no way inferior. He even had a Galaxy Aristocrat hanging on his arm… At the sight of this scene, Comrade Luo Qiang, who was ready to resign, could not resist it…

Who would not be curious about the ending of this situation? Comrade Luo Qiang was really quite reluctant to leave now…

Our boss is amazing! He even managed to successfully woo a Galaxy Aristocrat!

Mister Gate turned to look at Hong Dali, then, he suddenly laughed. “Wahahaha, what an interesting kid. What, are you going to attack me?”

On the other side, Mister Eagle Eye instantly took a step back and took a seat on the side. He muttered, “I will not fight against you today. Let me go back and train a few more days before I fight you again!”

“You bullied my Brother Luo Qiang. As his boss, I must have an explanation!” Not at all intimidated, Hong Dali stood eye to eye with Mister Gate. “If I cannot even protect the people around me, how can I survive here!”

His words were resounding, and Luo Qiang was so touched his tears streamed down his face. “Boss, it’s great to have met you in this life!”

“Hahahaha, kid, you are very courageous.” Mister Gate looked at Hong Dali carefully and suddenly shook his head. “I heard this other kid here call you ‘Boss’. That means you are the little prodigal who paid one hundred and twenty thousand Galaxy Dollars a month for me?”

“So,” Hong Dali looked at Mister Gate and triumphantly raised the brick in his hand. “You are the prodigal mister who accepted one hundred and twenty thousand Galaxy Dollars a month from me and yet does nothing?”

“Wahahaha!” Mister Gate made a thumbs-up sign. “Well done, you’re spirited!”

“Great Mister.” Hong Dali hefted the brick in his hand and grinned. “Are you worth one hundred and twenty thousand a month?”

“In this world, talent is the most valuable thing!” Mister Gate stepped forward and looked Hong Dali eye to eye. “I heard that if I pass level twenty there would be wine for me. Where’s the wine?”

“Oh? Mister, you like drinking wine?” Hong Dali nodded in satisfaction and threw the brick away. He pulled Mister Gate’s arm, led him to a pile of rocks and sat down. Then, he waved his hand breezily. “Xiaoyi, bring wine. Bring a few different kinds. Today, I will discuss wines with this prodigal mister!”

“Discuss wines?” When Mister Gate, who was unafraid of anything under the sky, even Galaxy Aristocrats, heard those words, his eyes lit up immediately. “Kid, you are going to discuss wines with me?”

It was entertaining listening to their conversation. Mister Eagle Eye, together with everyone else, crowded around to see what this amazing prodigal had to offer.

“Why? Do you think I am too young?” Hong Dali pouted. “People should not be judged by their size, wine should not be judged by their age. I may not be able to drink, but when it comes to discussing wines, I am not afraid of you!”

Mister Gate’s eyes positively shone. “Wahahahaha! Good! Let me see what you got!”

Ling Xiaoyi soon returned with the wines. There were ten different kinds in total, all of different qualities.

Hong Dali randomly grabbed a bottle and placed it in front of him. He took a closer look at it. It was a bottle of BoerBlu Wine, a very well-known and expensive wine in the Milky Way. Hong Dali opened the bottle of wine and asked Mister Gate a question. “Mister prodigal, what do you think is the best way to drink this wine?”

Everyone’s curiosity was piqued when Hong Dali asked this question. There were different ways to drink wine? You obviously drink with your mouth, not pour it down your nostrils, right?

“Grape wine?” Mister Gate stroked his crescent moon-shaped beard and said, “It’s such a small bottle. It will be finished in one gulp. How else is there to drink it? It should be drunk with a bowl. A big bowl, so it’ll have enough kick!”

“Wrong!” Hong Dali chuckled. “Drinking wine is an art. This is good wine, but it cannot be drunk without a good receptacle! Mister prodigal, you are so careless about wines. All you do is gulp it like a brute. That will not do, it’s too unsightly. No, no! Wines must be matched with a complementing receptacle. Your cup must match your wine!”

“There’s so much nonsense theory to drinking wine?” Mister Gate was experienced when it came to fighting. But when it came to drinking wine, it was true that he only knew how to gulp it down using a bowl. Although Hong Dali said that he was careless when it came to drinking wine, he was not angry. Instead, he became curious when he heard that wines must be drunk with a matching cup. He asked, “How should I drink it then?”

Hong Dali said, “You should drink grape wine with a luminous cup! Mister prodigal, think about it. There is a saying in my hometown that goes ‘Fine wine in a luminous cup, the sounds of the lute urge us to war as we get ready to drink’. The wine is bright red in color. If a hero like you drinks it, it makes you seem womanly and less impressive, right?”

“Yes, that makes sense!” Mister Gate nodded after hearing what Hong Dali said. “This color is a little too bright.”

“That’s why!” Hong Dali chuckled, his face serene. “You must use a luminous cup to drink this wine! Once the wine is in the luminous cup, its color becomes more like fresh blood. Drinking the wine will be like drinking blood. As the saying goes, aspire to eat your enemies, laugh and chat while drinking the blood of the Zerg. That’s style, that’s ambition!”

Hong Dali managed to come up with so many grand theories with just wine. Everyone who was listening had their mouths agape.

This guy rarely sprouted nonsense, but when he did, it was spectacular! They had a chance to see him in action today!

Jiang Qianxue felt proud too. After all, her boyfriend was so capable, and so she felt capable too—even though this boyfriend was fake…

“This brat.” Tang Muxin covered her mouth and laughed delicately. “That’s really too far-fetched. Hehe.” Li Nianwei and everyone else nodded in agreement.

Mister Eagle Eye was satisfied. He had lost the night before, but today, this amazing young man actually managed to win Gates when it came to knowledge about wine. It was his turn to lose. Amazing!

Mister Gate was proficient when it came to fighting, but when it came to discussing wines, he simply nodded profusely when he heard something that seemed to make sense. Especially when Hong Dali spoke about “aspire to eat your enemies, laugh and chat while drinking the blood of the Zerg”, it sounded grand and heroic. It felt good to hear it!

After he was done talking about the grape wine, Hong Dali started spouting nonsense again. He grabbed a bottle of wine at random. At first glance, the color was golden, and the name of the wine was called Fragrant Pomegranate Bloom wine. He immediately said, “To drink this Fragrant Pomegranate Bloom wine, we have to use a jade cup. As the saying goes, a jade bowl holds amber light. If we use a jade cup or a jade bowl, it will add color to the wine.”

“Well…” Mister Gate touched his chin and suddenly got up. His movements were so fast that, in the time it took to take two breaths, he was back in the pawnshop after suddenly rushing out. When he left, he was empty-handed, but when he returned, there was a big piece of aquamarine-colored jade in his hands. He went up to Hong Dali and dropped the piece of jade onto the ground. Then, his hand was engulfed in black mist and he lightly sliced the jade with a slash of his palm. Another two slashes and a simple jade bowl was made.

It was a beautiful move, and Tang Muxin and the rest applauded and cheered.

Mister Eagle Eye took drew his black sword and said, “Your work is too shoddy. Let me do it!”

After saying that, Mister Gate held the jade bowl in his hands while Mister Eagle Eye waved his black sword around. With just a few strokes, a shiny jade bowl emerged.

“Good sword skills!” Hong Dali praised.

The Fragrant Pomegranate Bloom wine was poured into the jade bowl. Sure enough, the golden Fragrant Pomegranate Bloom wine glowed brightly as it swished in the jade bowl in the soft lighting. Mister Gate drank it in one gulp, laughing. “Interesting, wahahaha, interesting! Kid, continue talking!”

Everyone applauded enthusiastically.

In a sweet voice, Tang Muxin praised him. “Well said, Dali. Grandpa White Beard chose a good piece of jade. Uncle Black Sword has superb skills!”

Everyone nodded in agreement.
