Chapter 122 I Lost Big

Chapter 122 I Lost Big

When Zhao Chuanxin came back, Liu Baogui asked, "What did you do?"

Zhao Chuanxin said mysteriously: "We are poor in Lugang Town, the French are willing to help the poor, so I went to collect supplies."

Liu Guigui was speechless.

Why is France so kind?

The two came to the beach, Zhao Chuanxin found a place where no one was there, and then took things out of the bag.

Liu Guigui's eyes were straightened.

It's not that it's unusual for Zhao Chuanxin to take out so many things from a small pocket, it's not unusual at all, who doesn't know that this kid knows some spells?

The strange thing is that all the opium was taken out!

Liu Guigui could see clearly that these opiums were exactly those on the pier.

"When did you take it away? Why didn't I see it?"

"Hehe, I dropped by when I was leaning against the car to smoke."

"What do you want to do?"

"Down into the sea."

Hearing this, Liu Guigui was taken aback: "This opium is not worth a lot of money, right? Just throw it away if you say so?"

Zhao Chuanxin frowned: "Precious, you have to remember, no matter how valuable it is, but it harms us Chinese people, so it must be destroyed! Have you forgotten Jin Tai, who smoked opium, what happened to his family? ?”

The two stopped talking, began to tear the packaging, and dumped it into the sea.

At this time, Britain was so arrogant, opium was transported and sold in China in a grand manner.

This thing has harmed so many people that the name "Sick Man of East Asia" can be heard all over the world.

When Zhao Chuanxin returned to the hotel, Li Guangzong also returned.

"Sir, the matter has been settled. There is a batch of Colt M1903 pistols, originally intended to be sold to Yuan Shikai. Because Yuan Shikai set up a police station in Zhili, especially in Tianjin. European businessmen feel that they can recommend the guns to Yuan Shikai for distribution. Patrolman, but Yuan Shikai thought it was too expensive and impractical, so he refused. This batch of guns is not many, just the first batch of prototypes, a total of 500. Each gun is equipped with 80 rounds of ammunition, and it costs 8000 yuan. A total of [-] guns [-] yuan, I decided to deliver it directly, and picked up the goods on the spot, and the people from Ma Kuaiban helped to carry them back."

Yuan Shikai, acquaintance!Thanks to this guy who is unwilling to spend the money, otherwise it might not be possible to get it so quickly.

Zhao Chuanxin opened the box, and a smell of motor oil came out.

On closer inspection, these are not American-made short models, but European-made long models.

Immediately overjoyed.

The long model means longer range and higher accuracy.As for things that are not conducive to hiding, does the Lugang Town Insurance Team need to hide them?
He picked up the pistol and rolled it with a click.

Open a box of ammunition, load it, eject it, and catch it with your hands. It's a joy to play.

8000 silver dollars is nothing to Zhao Chuanxin.

"So expensive?" Liu Guigui clicked his tongue, wondering if it was Li Guangzong who got kickbacks?
Zhao Chuanxin didn't take it seriously: "The new type of weapons that have just been released are not too expensive after being transported by ocean. It seems that in the United States, this kind of guns sell for about 20 dollars. As long as they are properly maintained, these guns can send us away. A generation of Gang Town Insurance Team!"

Everyone: "..."

Why does it sound so awkward?

Gao Li also picked up the gun and played with it happily.

Zhao Chuanxin said to Li Guangzong again: "Go to the foreigner tomorrow and tell him that if it can still be shipped in the future, let's order another batch of guns. It doesn't matter whether 100 or 200, 1000 will be all. There is a lot of ammunition. Bring more magazines! We can pay a deposit first!"

Li Guangzong quite liked his role, and said, "I promise to complete the task."

Zhao Chuanxin put away the gun and said to everyone: "Now that the gun matter has been settled, we will start to act tomorrow night. I need your help this time, but everyone can't bring horses..."

The next day, Li Guangzong first visited the Belgian foreign businessman, and when he came back, he brought back bad news.

"Sir, the Belgian foreign businessman inadvertently revealed a piece of news. The bank in Beijing was stolen. According to the meaning of foreigners, the thieves would not leave the capital, so you just need to narrow down the search. But there is one person, Aixinjueluo Yikuang , that is, Prince Qing, but he sent a telegram to set up cards all over the country, so he must catch the thieves."

Gao Li was surprised: "What kind of business does he care about? How can he be full when he is full? Are you so willing to be a dog for foreigners?"

Li Guangzong smiled wryly and said, "It's not that he wants to be a dog. The main reason is that he has a share of the money we stole..."

"..."

Zhao Chuanxin said, "Is this guy so rich?"

It's not as simple as being rich!
Li Guangzong told the news he had learned one by one, and everyone knew what it was.

When Cixi wanted to imprison Emperor Guangxu, Yikuang supported it; when Cixi wanted to suppress the Boxers, Yikuang actively advised; when Cixi wanted to sign the Treaty of Xin Chou, Yikuang was the representative; OK, no problem.What the queen mother said is right and good, no matter what I say, I will do it.

Therefore, no one can touch him, he behaves indiscriminately, sells officials, takes bribes, and tries every means to amass money.

He is said to have millions of pounds in savings.Others despise foreigners' banks and refuse to store money there.But he did the opposite, and the bulk of it was stored in the British HSBC Bank.

Zhao Chuanxin smacked his lips: "Hey, he is a good hand at making money. But something is wrong, he saved so much money, why did I get so little?"

700 million pounds, then there must be more than 7000 million silver dollars.

Zhao Chuanxin wailed: "I have lost a lot!"

The people fed the horses enough, and the people also ate and drank enough to rest well, and they led the horses to set off when it was dark.

The horses were placed in a private house on the north bank of Daguangming Bridge.

Originally planned to go south, but the news brought back by Li Guangzong made Zhao Chuanxin change his mind.

When I finish this vote, God knows how many police forces will be dispatched to the ten-mile foreign market in Shanghai?
Where there are foreigners, it is generally later to turn off the lights and go to bed at night.

After all, how can good time be wasted on such trivial things as sleep?
But after all, the weather was still a bit cold. Wrapped in a shiny leather jacket, the very fastidious old Tianjin man finished his last bath and went home smelling of alcohol and went to sleep.

The marine police team cursed and complained about Shangguan's idea of ​​wanting to work overtime without extra pay, and the last patrol to cope with errands was also called off.

Under the dim light of street lamps, everything was silent.

The three roads were submerged in the darkness beyond the reach of the street lights and stuck to the wall, moving like a two-dimensional painting.

Zhao Chuanxin gestured to Gao Li and Er Fatty, and the two leaned against the wall one after the other to watch, while he went straight to the window of the bank and started cutting.

An old cotton-padded jacket was spread on the ground. The cotton-padded jacket was thick enough to ensure that any debris would not make any noise if it fell.

After cutting the outside and the inside, Zhao Chuanxin clicked his tongue twice, attracting the attention of the two guards.

The two came over, Zhao Chuanxin got down on the ground, and they climbed in by stepping on his back.

All three of them entered the bank, and wrapped a layer of padded jackets on the soles of their shoes, which made them not make any noise when they walked.

Even though there are still two banks ahead, HSBC has become the first choice.

Zhao Chuanxin was not reconciled, and he only got a fraction of the 700 million pounds.

In fact, the sound insulation effect in the bank is excellent, and the wall where the money bank is located is extraordinarily thick and has no windows.

When he touched the location of the money bank, Zhao Chuanxin gestured.

You can't use guns, you need to use cold weapons to solve it.

As long as there are no gunshots, he allows people to scream.

The screams will be invisible in the bank, even if it spreads a little bit, as long as no one walks close to the bank, they will not notice it.

Of the three guards, two were standing against the wall chatting, and the other was fast asleep.

Light bulbs with heavy glass shades hung on the walls on either side of the money vault door.

It seems that the news of what happened in the capital made the bank guards in Financial Street more vigilant, and the guns were always behind their backs.

The three of Zhao Chuanxin didn't have any skills, so they rushed out of the darkness.

Although the gun is fast and accurate within seven steps, it must be loaded and set up.

When Zhao Chuanxin and the others were only seven or eight meters away from the three guards, the guards were startled and called out.

One of them was very funny. He wanted to pull the gun on his back in a hurry, but because there was a wall behind him, he failed to pull it twice, and Gao Li stabbed him in the chest with a bayonet.

The other person was so excited that he couldn't reach for the rifle in a hurry, but reached for his revolver instead.

Er Fatty ran over and put his hand on the holster, preventing him from pulling it out.

The other hand, from bottom to top, pierces from the opponent's jaw.

As long as Zhao Chuanxin is the most relaxed, the Jiling who fell asleep just woke up and "slept" again.

Next is a professional make-up and disarm.

Zhao Chuanxin is responsible for unlocking.

The efficiency of the three is high, especially Gao Li and Er Fatzi who are more bandits than bandits.

After opening the lock, Zhao Chuanxin was really shocked this time...
