19 Chapter 19: Attack Together

Those guys didn't know that Sean could fight so well. They were shocked, and two of them rushed to help Tod with their weapons, while the other ran towards the car!

One of them tried to grab Sean's waist, while the other stabbed at Sean with a dagger!

Sean flicked his short stick, knocking the dagger off. At the same time, he swung back, striking the other hoodlum's waist with the other end of the stick!

The hoodlum grunted and just fell down to the ground, convulsing!

Sean showed no mercy with that full force strike!

Chinese people have a natural talent for using sticks. Who hasn't played with a stick since childhood?

Moreover, when Sean was young, he often practiced real fights with his buddies using short sticks!

The hoodlum who dropped the dagger stepped back, showing a fearful expression on his face.

Sean ignored him and looked at another hoodlum coming from the car. He was furious!

The hoodlum was holding a bottle with a cloth stuffed in it and liquid inside, and a lighter in his other hand!

The hoodlum wickedly lit the lighter, setting the cloth on fire, and then, with a backward swing, was about to smash it on Sean's container!

Then there was a "whoosh-"

Sound!

Sean's short stick had already hit him in the face!

Would he give him a chance to do it?

"Ahh--" the hoodlum screamed, his hand loosened, and the frangible grenade was thrown back, into the car!

"Boom!"

The car was set ablaze!

Sean quickly took two steps forward and knocked down the only remaining hoodlum before making a phone call to the police.

A somewhat unhappy Paul returned to the site where he had just left off.

Seeing the four people lying on the ground and the car burned to a skeleton, Paul's eyes widened like copper bells:

"Did you do all this?"

"Yes and no." Sean recounted the events, and Paul gasped, "Are you serious? You took down four of them by yourself? Teach me your kung fu! I never thought you'd know kung fu!"

By the time the whole ordeal was over, it had grown dark outside.

After video chatting with Joanna for a while, Sean's mood improved.

The beautiful girl's affectionate words "I miss you" and suggestive eyes made him even want to go to university right now.

But he thought better of it.

He'd better deal with the matter at hand first!

It seemed that he couldn't stay in this container dormitory for long.

In the end, Paul warned Sean:

"Those Latino Americans stick together. You took down four of them today, and it's very likely that in a couple of days, a dozen more will come! This place isn't safe; you've got money now, so find somewhere safer to stay!"

Sean found this very reasonable.

After hanging up the video call, Sean began packing up his belongings.

Luckily, he didn't have too much stuff, so it would all fit in a pickup truck.

Fearing that they would retaliate at night, he went to a nearby hotel.

Although it was a bit expensive, it was at least safe.

Sean planned to go to the container auction tomorrow morning and then rent a house in the afternoon.

The hotel owner was a plump African-American woman who enthusiastically received Sean, but the room price was not cheap - 100 dollars a night.

Not including meals.

Well, Sean didn't think it was too expensive - even though this couldn't even compare to a 500 RMB per night room back in his country.

They even include breakfast!

After complaining a bit, Sean entered the room, rushed through his washing up and then went to sleep. There had been too much happening today, and he was really tired.

Early the next day, he drove to the port, bought a hamburger on the way for breakfast, and went to the freight yard that John had reported the location for.

New York Harbor is one of the world's largest ports, with an astonishing amount of container throughput every day, and naturally, many abandoned containers as well.

There were quite a few freight yards here, and today alone, there were four freight yards auctioning containers.

Sean wanted to keep a low profile, so he chose a small freight yard that was only auctioning six containers.

In his view, he should not encounter any acquaintances.

However, when he arrived at the freight yard, he discovered that Madden, Elder and Little Joey, Helen Brown, and all these familiar faces were actually there!

Seeing Sean Knight appear, Elder Joey said with a sneer:

"Yo! Isn't this the Chinese boy? I heard your house was burned last night?"

Little Joey pretended to stop Elder Joey:

"What are you talking about? Don't talk nonsense! Sean just offended those Latino Americans!"

This statement was more powerful than the previous one, and those people quickly kept their distance from Sean Knight.

Those Latino Americans were very difficult to deal with, and some of them were among the auctioneers. At this moment, some people had already started to glare at Sean Knight.

Suddenly, another person said:

"Sean, I heard you made a hundred-thousand dollars last week, is that true? I envy you so much!

Do you have any special abilities? Can you tell us about it? I heard all of you Chinese People can do some witchcraft, is it true?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of those who were watching the excitement immediately revealed jealousy and malicious intent!

At this moment, Sean Knight seemed to have become everyone's enemy!

However, some people still came up and whispered to Sean Knight:

"Sean, as long as you give me a reminder, I promise I will find someone to help you deal with those Latino Americans and solve your troubles!"

Sean Knight looked at him, and he remembered John saying that this person was unreliable, so he wouldn't fall for it!

As for today's situation, Sean Knight had anticipated it early on. He just hadn't expected so many things to be revealed. Clearly, some people didn't want him to have an easy time!

He looked up again, thinking that those familiar people, like Mr. Madden and Helen Brown, would say a few nice words for him.

However, when he looked up, he found that these people either pretended not to see or had a gloating expression in their eyes.

Obviously, they were not going to help.

Hehe!

If it weren't for my early preparations, I might have been fooled by you all!

Sean Knight said without changing his expression:

"You guys are thinking too much! It was just that Tod Collins thought I had made money and should give him a share. It's just a conflict between the two of us, and there's no need to escalate it to the entire group!"

"As for the fact that I made money, it's normal! Who among you hasn't had good luck and made a fortune in the freight yard?"

He pointed to Elder and Little Joey:

"Just three months ago, you two brothers bought a container for 1,500 dollars and found twenty new laptops inside, selling them for 40,000 dollars. That's true, right?"

He pointed to Helen Brown: "Three weeks ago, you found a set of collectors' stamps in a container worth fifty-thousand dollars, but you only spent 600 dollars to buy the container. This is not fake, right?"

"And you," Sean Knight pointed to Mr. Madden, "you're the best among us. After spending 300 dollars to buy a container, you found a box of two-hundred-year-old jewelry, sold it for 250,000 dollars, and your luck was really through the roof!"

Sean Knight pointed to a few more people who had made their fortunes in containers. As these words were uttered, the eyes of those onlookers fell on these people.

Especially Mr. Madden!

Such good fortune, it's really enviable!

Seeing that he successfully diverted everyone's attention, Sean Knight finally breathed a sigh of relief in secret.

He could basically guarantee that those who targeted him today, each and every one of the big shots present, had a hand in it!

There are only so many containers. If you grab one, someone else loses one.

A rising star like Sean Knight was bound to be suppressed!

Only they thought Sean Knight had only been around for a week and didn't know anything, making him easy to bully.

However, they didn't know that during the month Sean Knight followed John, he understood the situation of the freight yard very clearly.

Can you rely solely on Sky Eye?

That's a necessary condition, but not the most important!

Know yourself and your enemy, and you'll never lose a battle!

When the Chinese ancestors were playing schemes, your ancestors were still monkeys in trees!

At the scene, there was suddenly silence.

Sean Knight knew that this hurdle had been passed.
