The gunboat brushed the ferry boat by, and the side waves set off made Xiao Anguo secretly sigh ().

On the wharves and on the streets, groups of soldiers patrolling back and forth made the atmosphere in the three towns of Wuchang suddenly tense, because the Sichuan Road Protection Movement turned into a riot, and the three towns of Wuchang guarding the waterway into the Sichuan became the key point.

After the ferry arrived at the Hanyang Pier, before he could see the surroundings clearly, he found that the corner of his clothes was being grabbed, so he was so frightened that he quickly grabbed the handle of the gun and looked back, and found that it was a man carrying a bag, wearing a wide-brimmed hat, and a pair of brown glasses.

"Who are you?"

"Hehe, why doesn't the eldest brother recognize the younger brother?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Xiao Anguo couldn't help laughing: "I said Brother Yang, where are you singing?" This line is not bad, I will give my brother two sets another day, and I don't dare to go out without dressing up recently. ”

Yang Qiu smiled, dragged him directly onto the ferry without speaking, and then took off his glasses and said with a smile when he walked to a secluded place: "So I dragged my eldest brother down ()." ”

"Of course." Xiao Anguo also gradually learned about Yang Qiu's temperament, and quipped: "My brother is still counting on you to pay for losses." After the two made a few jokes and swept away the boredom of the past few days, Yang Qiu asked, "How did the eldest brother take over Pingku?" ”

"The brothers in it are all good, although they don't have noble people to help you, but they are still passable, and." Xiao Anguo knew Yang Qiu's thoughts, and after seeing that no one was paying attention, he leaned into his ear and whispered: "I entered the armory to see, the guards shouldn't be in much trouble, but there are too many things inside, and the rifle alone is fifty or sixty thousand!" There are more than 10,000 boxes of ammunition and more than 100 cannons, and they can't be taken away in ten days and a half. ”

"So much!"

Yang Qiu also stared, he knew that Chuwangtai was currently the largest arsenal in the country, but he didn't expect that there were so many of them, not to mention that he was such a small person, even if he pulled the entire mixed association up, he wouldn't be able to take away so many arms in a few days.

Why don't you blow it up? Yang Qiu shook his head, putting aside this idea, he really wanted to blow up the armory, and when Beiyang came, he was afraid that he could only watch the Three Towns fall.

Seeing that Yang Qiu didn't speak, Xiao Anguo leaned into his ear again and said: "By the way, there is another thing I want to tell you, yesterday I went to drink with a few colleagues in the army, and someone told me that on the night we were assassinated, Jin Leprosy did not come back all night. ”

"Golden dysentery? Who is goldenrod. ”

"Jin leprosy, also known as Jin Mingsheng, used to be a gangster of the Yangtze River Gang in Hankou, and later joined the New Army for some reason, and is now the number one hob meat in the eight towns. By the way, I also heard that he has a close relationship with a person named Zhang Zhenwu. ”

Zhang Zhenwu!

Yang Qiu almost called out, Sun Wu, Zhang Zhenwu, Jiang Yiwu, Shouyi Sanwu are famous figures, I didn't expect that the assassination of himself would actually come from them!

"Made, these guys are really dead!" Xiao Anguo hated to slap the railing.

"Big brother, I hurt you ()." Yang Qiu learned that it was Sanwu who wanted to kill him, and knew that the matter was serious, and he knew that Sanwu had an extraordinary status in the eyes of the Hubei Kuomintang, and they wanted to kill themselves, so they would definitely go all out.

"Don't talk nonsense, if it weren't for your brother, I would have lost my life in Guang'an." Xiao Anguo didn't seem to want to mention this matter anymore, and when he saw that the ship had returned to Wuchang Wharf, he asked, "By the way, where are you going?" ”

"See an old man."

Xiao Anguo was puzzled, Yang Qiu had already pulled him off the boat, and came to a delicate two-story courtyard in three turns and two times.

"Huh, it's you?"

When he entered the door, Xiao Anguo knew why Yang Qiu said that he was an old man, it turned out that he was looking for Shen Shukai who he met that night, and he was full of words and wanted to ask this man who suddenly appeared, but when he entered the house, he found that the next person was actually packing his bags.

"Mr. Shen, where are you going?"

"It's good that I finally met." Shen Shukai has also been anxious to see the two, and after seeing them, he hurriedly took his hand and said: "Don't hide it from the two of you, our Sichuan branch was robbed by a mob yesterday, so I must rush to check the situation immediately." ”

"Brother Shen, if I were you, you wouldn't go to Chengdu." Yang Qiu stretched out his hand and glanced at the old shopkeeper Dong, understanding that the three of them must have something to discuss, the clever shopkeeper Dong immediately dispersed the subordinates, and he walked to Shen Shukai to listen.

Shen Shukai, who was anxious about Sichuan, didn't notice that Yang Qiu had even changed his title, and said hurriedly: "Lord Yang, what do you mean?" ”

Yang Qiu smiled slightly, put the leather bag on the table, looked at the packed baggage and said, "I think Brother Shen went to Chengdu just to check the loss and find a way to reopen the semicolon, right?" ”

"Is that wrong?"

"That's right, it's just that Brother Shen has thought about it, now it's just a mere Chengdu, if there is chaos in Wuchang, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, how can you be separated?" Yang Qiu's few words made the face of the shopkeeper Dong of the previous Chengdu branch change suddenly, and even Shen Shukai suddenly stood up and asked, "Brother Yang, what do you mean ()?" ”

"The trees want to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop!" Yang Qiu got up and walked to the window, looked at the busy river outside and took a deep breath: "Brother Shen, you and I have intersected by chance, and I am afraid that trust is not enough, but don't you think we are very fateful?" ”

"I met Dong Shopkeeper in Chengdu that day, but he was also in distress there, and I apologized to you because of this distress, but you saved me and Miss Miao again, a drink and a peck, it should be God's will!" Yang Qiu glanced at the shopkeeper Dong and said with a smile: "Since you call me brother today, then whether you believe it or not, I still want to persuade you." Immediately! Right away! Sort out all the semicolons, and the liquid money will be returned to the treasury immediately, and if the conditions can, all will be converted into US dollars! ”

Even the most stupid person can understand when he hears these words.

can become the top businessman of this era, who doesn't know how to read words and looks, let alone such a standout person as Shen Shukai. Before he was in Shanghai, he already felt that his ears were full of the sound of the uprising to overthrow the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and even the most stable north had heard discordant sounds, and after arriving in Wuchang, his ears were full of shouts of killing Tartars on August 15, coupled with the Sichuan Road Protection Movement has evolved into an armed conflict, it is said that the fighting in Sichuan has become inextricable, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty has actually been in turmoil.

It's just that at this moment, let him close the stall, but it's not an easy thing, not to mention that he is just the manager and the owner and the major shareholders, just immediately rectifying the semicolon is a big loss.

Yang Qiu saw Shen Shukai's thoughts, and smiled slightly: "Brother Shen, I know you also have concerns, after all, this matter sounds terrifying, but if you believe me, you might as well accept it for 2 months first, if I am wrong after 2 months, I guess the loss will not be very big." ”

"Only 2 months?"

From the Chengdu Bloody Case to the Wuchang Uprising, it was only a month to be full, so Yang Qiu said with certainty: "Yes, it's only 2 months!" For 2 months, you will continue to operate as usual, as long as you pay attention to the safety of your money. ”

Hearing Yang Qiu bite for two months, Shen Shukai was also a little moved, and Xiao Anguo next to him frowned, because Yang Qiu had said before that these two months were the key ().

Shopkeeper Dong nodded and said, "Manager Shen, I think that no matter what Lord Yang said is right or not, we should tighten the money, just like this Chengdu branch, which was looted by the mob for more than 200,000 yuan, so it doesn't hurt to take some precautions in advance." ”

With the words of the shopkeeper Dong, Shen Shukai also had a plan in his heart, and got up and arched his hand: "Brother Yang, thank you for the reminder, tomorrow I will let the local branches be careful, if there is really a big event as you said in two months, then Shen Mou will definitely thank you!" ”

Hearing that Shen Shukai was finally persuaded by himself, Yang Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the purse, patted it and said with a smile: "Brother Shen is polite, you forgot, I still want to do business with you." After speaking, he took out a thick stack of white paper with strips of paper from his bag, handed it to the other party and said, "This is the big business I told you." ”

Although Shen Shukai didn't understand what was drawn on it, he could faintly see that it was some machines, and some of them even looked like cannons, and he suddenly didn't understand: "Brother Yang, what are you?" ”

Yang Qiuxian didn't answer and asked, "I want to ask, is Brother Shen familiar with the Germans?" ”

"I know a few friends from German banks, and I also have some contacts with the German ** officials in Shandong."

"That's enough." Yang Qiu patted his thigh and said.

Hearing Yang Qiu's vigorous play of dumb riddles, Xiao Anguo couldn't help but hurriedly grabbed him and asked, "Brother, just say it directly, don't play dumb riddles with me and Brother Shen." ”

Yang Qiu immediately flipped to the cannon map and said: "This is a stepping stone for Brother Shen, this is the cannon on the latest battleship of the French, although it may not be comparable to Germany, but France and Germany are mortal enemies, I think the Germans should believe you seven or eight points when they see this." ”

After saying that, he pulled out a few more drawings and continued: "This is the real deal, although I don't know how much the Germans will pay, but if these things are less than 500,000 dollars, big brother will burn it ()." ”

"$50? 1,000,000 taels of silver! As soon as he heard that the few pieces of broken paper he was looking at were worth so much money, Xiao Anguo's eyes turned green, and he hurriedly asked: "Brother, what are you talking about, what is this?" ”

"If you say it now, it will only hurt you." Yang Qiu's face became serious, he looked at Shen Shukai and said, "Brother Shen, this picture is big business, but it is also a killer, so if you want to make this deal, you must find a caring person to do it." I have a note in German here, and I have to show the Germans the instructions first, and then the drawings, and you must remember that the drawings must be stored separately, and only half of them can be read until the transaction is all over! ”

Don't blame Yang Qiu for being cautious, although he is sure that Germany will be tempted by this thing, and will definitely be willing to pay a large price, but the current China is not so much the world of Chinese as the world of foreigners, and if you want to take the fire from the hands of robbers who are used to robbing things, you have to be careful and careful.

As soon as these words came out, even if Shen Shukai didn't understand it, he knew that these drawings were very important, so he hurriedly asked: "Since Brother Yang believes in me, then I will do this transaction, but the Germans will really want this thing?" ”

"Yes! And only they need this the most, if you can meet the commander of the German Navy stationed in Qingdao, he will be more interested, but Brother Shen, you might as well keep an eye on it when negotiating, in case something goes wrong, you can tell them directly, if you have something, then some drawings will immediately appear in the hands of Britain and France! Of course, this is the last resort, and you must not start with that. ”

After Yang Qiu took care of it, he faced the surprised and surprised eyes of the three people, and finally smiled: "Tell the Germans, in addition to money, I also need 30 Makqin machine guns, 100 Madsen M50 machine guns and 1 million pointed bullets for European use, which must be obtained within 20 days, as for the rest of Brother Shen, you can do it yourself, anyway, I only need arms, and I don't want anything else!" ”

Hearing the last sentence, Shen Shukai and the shopkeeper Dong suddenly got up, and their scalps were numb and said, "Brother Yang, you are a revolutionary party?!" ”
