Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 954: You said you should be more obedient, but then you sell me a howitzer

Kumiko had a strong sense of dominance to begin with, and this time when she served Chu Xiangqian, she was gentle as water, yet a little too excited.

Even in Australia's eyes, this woman was a little crazy.

If Kumiko wasn't usually so gentle and kind, and Olivia didn't know that this girl was only like this in front of Chu Xiangqian, she would think Kumiko had a split personality.

Unfortunately, no matter how excited Kumiko was, she was no match for Chu Xiangqian.

And the more excited you are, the faster you will lose.

Had to ask Olivia for help.

The two took turns challenging Chu Xiangqian several times before Chu Xiangqian was able to vent his restless emotions.

Hugging the two exhausted female ninjas, Chu Xiangqian slept very well that night.

He accompanied Kumiko and Olivia and spent more than ten days in Wong Tai Sin like an ordinary person, and then called Zhang Tianzhi.

Although Kumiko and her boyfriend felt reluctant to leave, although Chu Xiangqian didn't spend much time with them every year, it still added up to at least four or five times and ten days in a year.

They stayed there for more than ten days, and the two women were very satisfied.

I was starting to feel overwhelmed.

If this continues, Kumiko feels that the two of them might be torn apart by Chu Xiangqian.

He helped Chu Xiangqian put on his suit, tidied his hair, and knelt down to put on his leather shoes.

Lying on the porch, after sending Chu Xiangqian out, Kumiko slumped down on the wooden board and said to Olivia with a sigh.

"If the master stays for a few more days, I feel like he's going to kill me."

Olivia nodded in agreement when she thought about playing a game with Chu Xiangqian in the morning, "In two years, when the disciples we have trained have reached adulthood, we can ask them to help us.

By the way, after being in contact with a genius like the Master, ordinary men will no longer be attractive to them. "

Kumiko nodded. Although this method of increasing a sense of belonging and loyalty would still have risks.

But after seeing how powerful and knowledgeable Chu Xiangqian was, it was indeed difficult for the girls he trained to be attracted to other men.

This is similar to raising a daughter in wealth.

Moreover, he has been with Chu Xiangqian for ten years. If he wants to leave, Chu Xiangqian will not refuse.

The second generation guards trained by that time had already earned enough money, either joining the Chu family's company as employees or leaving Hong Kong Island to live an ordinary life.

At least they don’t have to worry about money. This alone solves the biggest problem these people face after retirement.

Besides, after leaving, unless you become a completely ordinary person, you can still accept some tasks such as gathering information.

Although the salary is not high, it is still much higher than the average person's salary.

Chu Xiangqian was actually very willing to provide these guards with stable jobs.

Even though the main subjects of assassin training are related to killing, these people have endured the brutal training and will be able to survive many missions in the future.

Their resilience, willpower and execution are definitely much stronger than those of employees who graduated from university.

Give them time to get used to their new jobs and they will probably do better.

Not to mention, once one's fighting skills are up to par, one will definitely learn some other skills in the years to come.

In addition, they are well-informed. In Chu Xiangqian's eyes, these people are actually very good talents.

Three years ago, Chu Xiangqian let Tsuchiya, a member of Matsuno's team, go.

In the eyes of other members of Matsuno's team, this means that Chu Xiangqian is trustworthy and they don't have to worry about being silenced when they want to retire in the future.

Therefore, the members of Matsuno's team have always been very loyal.

Of course, Tsuchiya himself also knows what can be done and what cannot be done.

There is no need for Chu Xiangqian, the employer, and Matsuno Ichiro, the captain, to worry about causing unnecessary trouble after the members retire.

In the end, Chu Xiangqian and Matsuno Ichiro were forced to hunt down Tsuchiya.

Therefore, when Ichiro Matsuno and Kumiko train the next generation of personnel, in addition to ability, they also pay great attention to the mentality of their disciples.

Those who have an unstable mentality and are unreliable in doing things can be eliminated directly with the greatest possibility after a few years of observation.

Chu Xiangqian is not short of money. Even now, Matsuno's team still receives commissions when they go on missions.

In addition to making money with them, just from the tiger bone wine, although the people in Matsuno's team are not rich, they are definitely not short of money.

However, Chu Xiangqian knew that Ichiro Matsuno and others were elites who survived the brutal training of Ozunu.

If you treat them a little better, these people will be more inclined to you once they see how you treat them.

So Chu Xiangqian sometimes thought, why not just spend money to buy ready-made ninjas directly from Ozunu to be the next generation of guards.

But Kumiko and Ichiro Matsuno spent a lot of time and effort on their disciples.

We can only watch and observe first, so as not to discourage their enthusiasm and affect their loyalty.
-
Chu Xiangqian got into Zhang Tianzhi's car and was not in a hurry to show up.

During the past half month, in addition to living with Kumiko and Olivia and adjusting my mentality.

Chu Xiangqian also got 120 Arabian horses, purebred horses and Arabian horses from the novice village.

Just half an hour after he had transported all the horses to the stable in the afternoon, he received a phone call.

Not long after, Hader hurried to the stable.

Seeing Chu Xiangqian standing outside the fence first, lying on the fence, watching the horse trainer in the training ground testing 40 Arabian horses.

I couldn't help but wonder, this guy disappeared for more than a month, could he really be dealing with the horses?
Unfortunately, this thought only lasted for a few seconds before Hader threw it to the horizon.

Apart from Chu Xiangqian, Hader really couldn't think of anyone else who had the ability and motivation.

The Java military camp was bombarded and more than a dozen members of Sughato's family were poisoned to death.

Even a few children were not spared.

Moreover, recently in the underground world, there has been a mission to hunt down members of the Sughato family's side branch.

As a result, within just ten days, three generations of the family died under a target price of $2.

Many members of the side branches were simply their fellow villagers or even friends who did the killing.

When these people received their rewards, their identities could naturally not be hidden from the High Table Society.

When the news reached Chu Xiangqian, he simply had someone specifically announce that if the work was done by relatives or friends, the reward would be doubled.

In Java, where the per capita income is just over 100 US dollars, the annual income of the middle and lower classes may be only 20 to 30 US dollars.

4 US dollars is indeed enough to drive many people crazy.

Over the past month, Hader told himself more than once not to anger Chu Xiangqian.

When Hadel saw Chu Xiangqian looking back at him, his heart suddenly tightened and his heartbeat accelerated as if he was being stared at by a tiger.

Fortunately, Chu Xiangqian stayed quietly with Kumiko and Olivia for half a month.

He was not in a hurry to return to Beijing or go to London because he felt that his mentality was different from before.

After all, no one could kill thousands of people in one night and cross the bottom line to attack Su Hetuo's children.

There will be problems with your mentality.

Fortunately, deep down, I feel very little burdened by having Su Hetu's family reunited.

Seeing Hader's nervous expression, Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but smile and wave to him.

"Do me a favor."

Hader nodded without thinking, but after nodding, he began to worry again.

Fortunately, if Chu Xiangqian really had something difficult to deal with, he would only go to Hader for business or money. He smiled and said, "I promised Norton, his grandfather, and Philips that as long as they can lobby the two parties to accuse Java of atrocities together.

Even in parliament, when discussing the motion to sanction Java, horses were used as rewards, regardless of whether it passed or not.

At this horse racing auction, you and other members of the poker club helped me buy 5 purebred horses and 5 Arabian horses.

I will have someone hand over the auction funds to you.

Alternatively, you can pay it yourself with funds from Hong Kong Island and I will pay you back in pounds.

These pounds will then be deposited into your account in London or an offshore island."

Norton was promised 20 Arabian horses and 20 purebred horses as rewards.

But Chu Xiangqian would not really buy 40 horses at the auction and give them to Norton.

10 horses come from the auction and 30 horses come from the Novice Village.

The purpose was simply to let the politicians Norton lobbied know how valuable these 40 horses were.

It will be much easier to trade in the future.

As for Morgan Jr. and Robert, they also had 5 purebreds and 5 sweat-blooded horses from the auction.

The other 10 horses will be selected from the Novice Village.

As for the person to hold up the sign, Chu Xiangqian plans to ask He Chaosheng and Zheng Yutong for help.

By the way, it can also be regarded as a warning to them.

Hader was stunned, then delighted.

Although the supervision of funds is not strict these days, no matter what era, the spear and the shield are relative.

To people decades later, the international means of combating money laundering seem very primitive and full of loopholes.

But relatively speaking, the method of laundering money in this era is actually very simple.

Hadel and his gang embezzle hundreds of millions to tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars every year in Hong Kong Island.

The money earned by using power to do business is also considerable.

Rather than letting the underground money lenders take away 3% interest, it would be better to find someone to help Chu Xiangqian buy the horse at the auction.

Then receive an equal amount of pounds from London, the Netherlands or Spain.

"No problem," Hader nodded without thinking, and because of this, the two of them started talking and laughing like before.

After Hader left, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although Chu Xiangqian exudes a heart-pounding aura.

But during the more than half an hour of conversation, Hader could still feel that this guy had not changed towards his friends.

Not long after, Zhang Tianzhi covered his ears with the earphones and listened for a while, then walked to Chu Xiangqian and said.

"Boss, Ah Shui is here."

Chu Xiangqian smiled and nodded. Not long after, Sanjiangshui, like Hader, hurried into the training ground.

Chu Xiangqian was seen lying on the fence, pointing at a Ferghana horse and shouting to the rider on the horse, "Go and try this horse's speed of running a thousand meters."

When the jockeys, trainers, Uncle Hai and other management heard this, they immediately became excited.

Because of these words, Sanjiangshui's tension and uneasiness quickly disappeared.

He walked up to Chu Xiangqian and began to report what had happened in both the black and white worlds of Hong Kong Island over the past month.

In the following days, I met with many partners in Hong Kong and the management of all companies.

Everyone's mentality finally calmed down.

Chu Xiangqian then called and asked Qian Guotai to go fishing on the embankment near the Central Pier.

As soon as they met, Chu Xiangqian asked, "Does the higher-ups have any opinion on what I did?"

Qian Guotai didn't rush to speak. He worked for a while, put out the bait, then sat down and sighed and said.

"You shouldn't have shelled the Javanese."

Chu Xiangqian shrugged, knowing that what Qian Guotai meant was that some people in higher positions were now beginning to be wary of him.

Come to think of it, with dozens of cannons going in and out of Java, if you were the leader, you would also be very cautious.

But Chu Xiangqian didn't care much about what his superiors thought about things outside the Celestial Empire.

To put it bluntly, I am willing to listen to my superiors because I am a Chinese.

But this does not mean that you are under the jurisdiction of your superiors.

At worst, I can just leave and wait a dozen years, then invest in China as an investor.

Even if I am not allowed to return to my country, it doesn’t matter.

Besides, a lot of things have changed after more than ten years.

If you just focus on the economy, there is a high probability that someone will come to you.

Moreover, in the past ten years, I have not done anything detrimental to the Celestial Empire. Time will prove my position and character.

So Chu Xiangqian said nonchalantly, "I have the ability to retaliate, and I will feel unhappy if I don't do it. And if I come forward, the higher-ups won't have to make things difficult for me."

Qian Guotai naturally understood this principle, but Chu Xiangqian's performance this time was indeed worrying, even frightening.

If this guy continues to act recklessly in the future, let alone some small countries.

Even a country like Java, with a population of 200 million and a vast area, might be overthrown by him.

If this happens, there will be too many issues involved.

Fortunately, Chu Xiangqian didn’t have such an idea.

Seeing Chu Xiangqian's indifferent look, Qian Guotai knew that he couldn't control this kid.

It’s better not to say more, lest Chu Xiangqian gets bored and acts even more recklessly.

He then asked, "We captured a lot of magnesium howitzers on the battlefield. The boss asked me to ask you if you want to buy some?"

Chu Xiangqian was stunned. He just wanted to persuade himself not to do anything stupid abroad.

Now you're turning around and planning to sell World War II magnesium cannons?

Fortunately, Chu Xiangqian quickly realized that since he was able to get a 5.5-inch howitzer, he was in the eyes of his superiors.

As long as you think about it, magnesium and Ying weapons are not difficult to make.

In this case, they might as well sell to Chu Xiangqian the howitzers that the Chinese donated to the Kuomintang in the mid-to-late 40s.

There are two types: 105mm and 155mm.

Chu Xiangqian didn't even think twice and said with a smile, "If possible, the first batch of purchases will be 10 155mm heavy howitzers and 5 rounds of shells."

Qian Guotai frowned after hearing this, thinking to himself that this kid is indeed never a content person.

The cannons were still okay, but they actually bought 500 shells, which meant that one cannon was equipped with shells.

It would be strange to say that he would not cause trouble after buying the cannon.

After Chu Xiangqian thought about it, he remembered the magnesium-based M114A1 howitzer.

With a maximum range of 15 kilometers, it can definitely be considered a powerful weapon for the army in this era.

And with magnesium equipment, there is no need to worry about Java shifting the blame to China or the polar bear.
