I want to be a good person

Chapter 393: Transaction in the Dark

The car slowly left the city gate under the salute of the puppet soldiers.

If you have money, you are a master!

Each of them was given a dollar, and the other puppet soldiers saluted respectfully with their guns raised.

"Captain, who is so generous?"

"Shanghai Ning, comprador."

"I want to go to Shanghai. Guarding the gate every day is like being a dog. It's useless."

"Who are you going to? Even Mr. Du ran away."

"I don't believe that the comprador just now is doing all legitimate business."

"Alas, the world is complicated. No one dares to use a white body. Others may not trust you."

"Then I'll wait for my chance."

Are things in the world difficult or easy? If you do it, the difficult things will become easy; if you don't do it, the easy things will become difficult.

Heyisheng Grocery Store, Shanghai.

"When will the boss be back?"

"Wait a little longer. It may take some time."

"Master Wuweizi sent a letter saying that he wanted to continue purchasing guns. Since the boss is not here, he dare not make the decision."

Jia Bisheng has become much more low-key.

"Sell it. I won't sell the flower machine, but you can sell the rest."

Gao Deli pondered for a long time, hesitating to make a decision on how to be independent in the future.

The guns were sent to Baiyun Temple, and only the guns for self-defense were left. After several secret activities, the brothers got into trouble and did not escape unscathed, and they all regretted it very much.

In fact, similar experiences were the norm during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. People lost their lives in exchange for a bloody victory.

Following Zhang Aiguo in battle, everyone developed a sense of dependence and awe towards him.

While his boss is away, Gao Deli decides to run the business and let his boss see his growth.

Soon, everyone was busy and continued to investigate the news.

"Mr. Hao, your weapons are not seen."

When Shopkeeper Qian saw Zhang Aiguo with his bare hands, he couldn't help but feel worried and scared.

Zhang Aiguo glanced at him lightly and smiled to comfort him, "Don't worry, my people have already notified you by telegram, and they have sent the things over."

"You guys don't want to rob the gangsters, do you?"

It's inevitable that I'm a little worried when asking this question.

When the time comes, everyone will retreat.

"I'll go there myself, don't worry."

"Besides, we are all fighting the war, how could we do something that betrays our ancestors?"

"I can rest assured that."

There was still a trace of hesitation and worry in Manager Qian's heart.

The car stopped, Zhang Aiguo turned off the engine, got out and locked the car.

"Where is the thing?"

As soon as he got off the car, Manager Qian asked hurriedly.

Zhang Aiguo stared at him expressionlessly. His mood was understandable and a little anxious, but he couldn't take himself too seriously. After giving the commission, he was just a broker.

"sorry."

My excited heart felt like a bucket of cold water was poured on it, it instantly tightened and I forgot my identity.

"Go get two rooms."

A small inn, a location specially chosen by Zhang Aiguo.

The door of the house next door was closed tightly, and the peach charms on it were mottled. It seemed that no one had lived there for a long time.

As night falls, the moonlight is obscure, sometimes bright, sometimes dim.

"Walk."

Zhang Aiguo took out a piece of wire and pulled open the copper lock.

"You wait here."

Shopkeeper Qian stood outside obediently.

The mule cart was taken out, the corresponding guns, ammunition and accessories were placed on it, and it was led out.

"lead the way!"

Zhang Aiguo changed into a short cotton-padded jacket and wore a fisherman's hat.

"Hey"

One knock and you're immediately back to the time when you first met. Businessmen are all smart people.

The transaction took place on the bank of a river.

"coming."

Seven or eight figures emerged from the darkness.

"This is Captain Wang of the Civil Resistance, and this is Mr. Hao from the Damei Commercial Bank."

"Nice to meet you. I'm the deputy. Captain Li is going to a meeting with his superiors to apologize."

"No problem. Nice to meet you."

Both parties stretched out their hands and shook hands at the same time.

"Inspection"

The lantern was taken from the mule.

The two sides passed each other.

There were three wooden boxes in front. When they were opened, one box contained silver dollars, one contained gold and silver jewelry, and a set of silver tableware, tea sets, and wine sets; and the other contained calligraphy, paintings, and porcelain.

After collecting and putting away, there are only 500 silver dollars. The price of the second box is usually based on weight. The third box cannot be evaluated. It is not valuable in troubled times. The total amount is less than half.

Food, weapons, gold and silver are the hard currencies!

Zhang Aiguo turned around and looked at the other group quietly.

With a feeling in his heart, he raised the lantern, made a gun shape with his fingers, and pointed in two directions.

"No, he found us."

"Don't panic, we are prepared."

"He seems to have come here alone, and he is fearless."

"That shows that we are deeply supported by the masses and are trustworthy."

Someone noticed Zhang Aiguo's action and pulled his collar.

Captain Wang turned around and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Hao. For our own safety, there are too many traitors and lackeys. We have to be on guard!"

"Understood, understood."

"Have you inspected the goods?"

“They’re all good guns.”

“There’s not enough money.”

"I was just about to discuss this with Mr. Hao. We are behind enemy lines and can only fight the enemy if we have the support of the people. We are a little short of money, so I hope..."

"Write me a promissory note and specify the price, okay?"

“Only if we can get the support of many people with lofty ideals can there be hope for the country and the nation.”

After saying that, he took out an IOU from his pocket and handed it over.

"It turns out that it was prepared in advance."

"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Mr. Hao. We are not the Democratic Party. We have discipline. We must pay back what we have borrowed. We will never let down the people's trust in us."

"well said."

"Borrowing 1000 yuan? That's a big difference."

"Oh, that's right. We have evaluated it. The calligraphy and paintings cannot be sold at a high price now, but we will definitely drive out the invaders and build a democratic and free country. We have to wait and see about the future. It's a prosperous antique."

The words are sonorous and powerful, and the blood is boiling. Now he is a person with firm beliefs and deserves respect!

"Okay, let's take over."

He hung the lantern on the mule, took down the weapons, and loaded the valuables onto the cart.

"drive"

"Mr. Hao, please stay."

"That, that..."

Zhang Aiguo knew there would be follow-up, and he could do without money, but he couldn't be fooled.

In my previous life, I drank countless chicken soups and learned many new words. In the past, I lived and learned until I was old, and now I work until I am old.

"77mm bullets? The price has gone up now!"

"what?"

When Shopkeeper Qian saw this, he hurried forward and tried to mediate without saying a word.

He didn't expect that the money was not enough, but it mattered whether he was close to his fellow townsmen or not.

"Snapped"

A big slap on the face.

"you?"

"Snapped"

Another big slap.

"Get lost, who are you? You keep interrupting me. I'm giving you face. Who are you? I'll give you a full commission. Believe it or not, I'll let you accompany the Dragon King!"

Shopkeeper Qian covered his face and dared not speak any more.

He knew that he had made an enemy and violated the rules of the middleman's trade, and according to tradition he would be drowned in the river.

"Mr. Hao, don't be angry. It's all because of our lack of preparation. Don't worry, after you drive away the devils, you can come to us for repayment at any time. We are trustworthy."

"No, I believe you, but we have different ideals and we will never meet again."

After saying this, he saluted and turned to leave.

The embarrassing thing for Shopkeeper Qian is that he has offended the seller, so how can he go back?

Zhang Aiguo respects all the heroes and ancestors who fought against the Japanese aggression, and respects those who have faith.

I can't do it myself, so I respect them even more in my heart!

They have defended the territory with their blood for a lifetime, suffered for three generations in a lifetime, and laid a solid foundation for take-off!

It’s just that the word “promise” in promise and the word “oath” in oath are both spoken without meaning!

Time is like running water, washing away everything!
