Wang Guodong also said with a smile: "Not everyone is like you. Most tourists are still very stingy. After all, they are all hard-earned money. Let's not talk about it, let's talk about you. What's the matter? Come back to Bangkok, Is it business or tourism, is there any place to take care of my brother?"

"I can't talk about it. I really have something to ask my brother for help: I ​​came to Bangkok this time to buy a few guns and go back to play. Does my brother have a way?"

"Buy a gun to go back to play?" Wang Guodong was stunned and said, "You may not know, brother, you can't take a gun back here."

"I know that if you can't take it out at sea, the risk of smuggling ships is high. I know that. But don't worry, man, I have already agreed with people on my side. Friends on the freighter, it's no problem to bring a few guns back."

Wang Guodong only understood at this moment: "It seems that my brother is bound to win this time. I haven't bought the goods yet, and the way has been made. Call me today. Are you waiting for the rice to cook?"

"Well, everything is ready, so I owe Brother Guodong the shareholder wind."

Wang Guodong nodded: "Actually, it's very easy to buy a gun here, as long as you are a Thai, and the public will still have a discount. Since my brother has a way, let's go to a private workshop first, it's more convenient there, just give the money."

"I don't want to go to the workshop. The brothers came to buy guns this time. They are for collection and play. I don't like those junk."

Wang Guodong patted his head with an apologetic smile: "My fault, my fault, my brother's net worth is naturally a good thing to play. If this is the case, then I will take you to a familiar shop to test the gun first, and I will contact a local when I come back. Man, this guy has a gun license, and the gun shop on Khao San Road still needs the locals to come forward as a cover."

"No hurry, no hurry, it's noon, let's eat first..."

In the afternoon, the two of Cao Chuan drove the SUV rented from the hotel, and camped directly on the most famous gun shop street in Bangkok. It was dark and they called it a day...

The next day was also the same. Cao Chuan threw out his money and tried guns at the gun shop. He worked hard in the past two days. He was able to shoot all kinds of pistols and rifles. My whole body is sore, my shoulders are red and swollen, and I am covered in gunpowder smoke...

However, the gains were not small. The guns that he had only seen on the forum before were all thrown by him this time.After getting it on the Internet, he felt shallow. After he actually used live ammunition, he knew which gun was easy to use and which gun was a good one.

At 01:30 pm on the fourth day, the two came to the door of a gun shop on Khao San Road.

Sitting in the SUV rented from the hotel, Cao Chuan took out a bag from the back seat of the car and put it into Wang Guodong's arms: "I won't go in, so as not to be seen by your friends. There is 15 RMB in it, which must be enough , don’t make a mistake about the model of the gun, it’s for military use, brother Guodong has worked hard.”

Wang Guodong opened the bag and took a look, then closed the zipper, sighed and said, "The rich are generous, spending 15 yuan to buy a few guns."

After speaking, Wang Guodong pushed open the door and got out of the car, and stood by the roadside smoking a cigarette.

Cao Chuan leaned back and watched silently.Twenty minutes later, a Thai man in a flowered shirt got off the taxi. This man walked to the front of the store, saw Wang Guodong, and greeted him warmly.Wang Guodong also had a smile on his face, chatting and laughing with this thin Thai man, and the two of them opened the door and walked into the gun shop while talking.

The cashier was at the door of the gun shop. Cao Chuan looked in through the glass window and saw that the two were communicating with the boss. After a while, the boss took out the calculator and began to argue with Wang Guodong about something.

About ten minutes later, it seems that the two talents have negotiated.The skinny Thai started filling out the form on the counter, and after filling out the form, the Thai went to the corner to drink iced tea.Wang Guodong followed, took out a stack of money from his bag and handed it over. The Thai man put away the money, gave him a warm hug, saluted him, and walked away.

Wang Guodong went back to the counter and started taking money out of his bag.

After the boss counted the money, he took Wang Guodong to the back of the gun shop.Cao Chuan knew that there was a warehouse, and after another half an hour, Wang Guodong came out with two large boxes.

Cao Chuan hurriedly flattened the seat and opened the back door of the car. Wang Guodong put the box in the car, turned his head and went back to get the goods. After four back and forth, the battle was over.

Pulling the door to get into the car, Wang Guodong came in and said, "The goods are all here, brother, check it out."

Cao Chuan nodded and began to open the boxes to check one by one. Wang Guodong paid the bills aside: "Two MK17 assault rifles, a full set of tactical accessories, military models, can be fired in three bursts, [-] sets, two sets of [-] in total."

While checking the gun, Cao Chuan said, "It's not expensive. Yankees don't dare to buy this gun in large quantities. One barrel can buy an M16. In North America, the civilian version of this naked gun costs more than 2000 US dollars. The gun is even more expensive, and a full set of accessories will cost at least 3 yuan. This is more than [-] yuan in RMB. This is a military version, and the boss is taking risks, and [-] yuan is not expensive."

Wang Guodong lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and said, "You know the market is good. Originally, the boss asked for a higher price, but it was my friend who did the best. The Tourism Bureau of Thailand is better than Tiaozi, and the boss can't help it. Only after the price is negotiated can I agree to make a move.”

Cao Chuan nodded: "Brother Guodong has worked hard."

Wang Guodong continued: "Two Beretta M9 full sets of accessories, six thousand one, two kinds of ammunition in a box, each box of [-] rounds, [-] boxes, and finally the grenade, this is less, only twenty send."

Cao Chuan nodded: "Twenty rounds is enough for me and my friends to play once. Forget it, let's do it for now."

Wang Guodong nodded: "You rich people just have to have fun."

Cao Chuan checked the MK17 in his hand and was full of joy.

Although the evaluation of this gun on the Internet is very high, there are many touted claims such as fully modular design, such as the perfect combination of accuracy and firepower.But it didn't really make much sense to him before. It wasn't until the past two days that he personally tested the gun that he quickly recognized the gun.

Among the guns he has shot in the past few days, this is the only rifle that he likes after using it. It is smooth and accurate. It is suitable for any use. It does not have the obscure feeling of other guns. Do things in time and cooperate with tacit understanding.

"A good gun, a good gun, Shui You sincerely don't lie to me... It's just a bit more expensive, but it doesn't matter, brother has money, perfection always has a price." A certain person thought while checking the parts on the gun.

After he finished inspecting the goods in the car, Wang Guodong handed over the bag: "There are more than 2 left in it."

Cao Chuan pushed the bag back: "No matter how much is left, it's all hard work. Brother Guodong, you won't be polite to me, will you?"

Wang Guodong smiled: "Mr. Cao is really generous, then I'm welcome, sigh, for this amount of money, I don't know how many customers to get it back, no wonder so many people go to swindle, this arms. The business is still profitable.”

Cao Chuan smiled and patted Wang Guodong's shoulder: "Brother, I have a hunch that I will ask you for help sooner or later. Brother Guodong can also develop in this area if he is interested. How much money can he make by driving a minibus?"

Seeing Wang Guodong's thoughtful look, Cao Chuan said again, "Everyone grew up in the same courtyard. There are some things that you know and I know best, so that we can deal with them later. Brother Guodong, are you right?"

Wang Guodong reacted immediately and hurriedly said: "Don't worry brother, I understand this, no third person will know about this today."

Cao Chuan nodded with satisfaction, the two broke up, and the SUV turned around and drove to the hotel.

Chapter 23 Cold Weapons

By the time the car stopped at the hotel, the car was empty and there were no more semi-bombs.Cao Chuan went back to his room to book a plane ticket and packed his things. At ten o'clock in the evening, the passenger plane taking off from Bangkok had landed at Xiaoshan International Airport.

Back in his house in Cuiyuan Community, Cao Chuan sat on the floor, took out an M9 pistol from the box in front of him, and nodded with satisfaction.This trip was relatively smooth, the things were in hand, and a channel was found.After feeling that he was still rich and able to do things, he yawned and went to bed. He was too tired to catch a flight.

When I got up in the morning, I contacted Li Douzhan first, and learned that the transfer of the antique shop was going through, and now it was going through the renovation and business procedures, so he didn't bother.

Turn on the computer and start looking for information about some cold weapons.In his design, he just stood behind and hugged the fire, and other warriors were naturally responsible for the charge.Considering that if too many people died, he wouldn't be able to create the force of his real Cao, so he planned to buy some weapons and armor to improve the force value of the shanzhai people.

After writing down all the information I found online, I went out to eat, stopped by the dry cleaner to pick up my clothes, and drove straight to a handicraft factory on the outskirts of the city.In fact, he can order online, but he doesn't have the time to wait, so it is more convenient for him to pick up the goods at his home.

When he arrived at the handicraft factory, he explained that he belonged to the props company, and the manager enthusiastically took him to the sample room to see the goods.Walking around Fang Bu in a circle, Cao Chuan played a few times one by one, and finally picked out a wide-blade Tang knife and looked at it carefully.

Seeing that the guests were interested, the manager quickly introduced to the side: "Brother, good eyesight, the style of this knife has been improved, it is one centimeter wider than the ordinary Tang knife, and it looks more powerful. This knife is also made of sufficient materials, chrome steel. It’s made, has good toughness, and usually doesn’t need maintenance. Your company buys a batch to go back, but if it’s an ancient costume drama before the Republic of China, this is the right one.”

Cao Chuan was quite satisfied. In the past, he used curved scimitars on the set, made of plastic, which were shaken and tossed back and forth, just like that job.This knife is much tougher, with a straight blade, a foot smaller in the hilt, two-hand grips, the center of gravity on the front of the knife, and it feels very smooth to swing.

Nodding his head, Cao Chuan asked, "How much does it cost, I'll start with [-], and if you use it well, you will need a batch."

When the manager heard it, he hurriedly replied: "If it is wholesale, it will be five hundred and fifty one. Brother, I have no problem with the quality of this knife. The thinner steel bars will be broken with one knife. If you don't believe me, let's go out and try to chop a few pieces, and you will be satisfied."

Cao Chuan was noncommittal, continued to wander around the showroom, and took a look at a classic short-edged Tang knife more than two feet long: "What about this?"

"The short-edged ones are a little more expensive, seven hundred for wholesale."

Cao Chuan didn't bargain, the two knives cost [-] each. The manager went to stock up after receiving the banknotes. After a while, he loaded the goods into the car. After Cao Chuan asked for a business card, he walked away.

The next stop is to buy stab-proof clothing. You need to balance the attack and the reception.Originally, he was stupid and wanted to buy some armor, but after a casual search on the Internet, he found that he was a good citizen who was really outdated, so he directly changed his target to stab-resistant clothing.

According to the address saved on the mobile phone, I drove all the way to find a company called Hongtai in the city. Netizens commented that the quality of this company's products is good.It's the same procedure. First go to the sample room to see the goods. After the manager learned that the owner of the Land Rover was the one who demolished the company, he took out three weapons and let Cao Chuan test it himself.

Kitchen knives, daggers, three-edged thorns, and three types of weapons were tested separately.Facts have proved that the stab-proof suits that can stop adult men from stabbing with three-edged thorns all cost more than 2000 yuan.The three to five hundred ones can only defend against the first two weapons, and they will kneel when they encounter a three-edged thorn.

The manager knew the test results for a long time, and seeing that the customer stopped in front of the most expensive set, he quickly recommended it: "I know very well about the demolition industry, and I often get stabbed by some people's steel bars. There is not much difference between the three-edged thorns. Brother, it is not me who said that if you have money, you have to spend your life. Brother Bao, you are at ease, how is it?"

What else can Cao Chuan say? Twenty sets are paid on the spot, all accessories are added, and none of the shoulder and arm armor is missing, but the helmet is a bit rough. Cao Chuan did not dare to ask for that kind of glass mask, so he chose one. The desert painting looks khaki color and is inconspicuous.

Still asking for business cards, still stuffing goods into empty cars.

Early the next morning, Cao Zhenren, who was dressed in plain Taoist robes, reappeared in the small bamboo house 400 years ago.

The old rules, messing up the bed and going out, not long after, Cao Chuan was already discussing the specific implementation plan of Baijiazhuang's tough battle with several masters.

This time, Chen Erye attended the meeting instead of Lin San, who was working shifts down the mountain.Due to waiting for Cao Chuan's news, Pingfeng Village took the initiative to shrink strategically in the past few days. After learning that Mr. had successfully invited the magic weapon from the teacher's door this time, Zhou Tong and several others were also excited.

Cao Chuan took out both the anti-stab suit and the Tang knife, first tested the clothes with the broken machete in the stockade, and then directed Chen Huoding to chop each other with the wrought iron knife and the wide-bladed Tang knife...

Looking at the broken wrought iron knife on the ground, Cao Chuan waved his hand to pause, stopping the amazement, praise, and questioning that would inevitably appear next.He was really tired of this set, and he had to make up stories every time, and finally left a cool sentence: "Well, this knife is used by Xi Kunlun to kill pigs, the armor is soft hedgehog armor, pick some people to practice. After a while, it will be useful to rush into the formation."

Chen Erye waved the Tang knife excitedly: "I can't blame Mr. for eating a good pair of skins. This fairy pig is really thick-skinned. It takes such a good knife to kill it."

Cao Chuan: "..."

Zhou Tong was not too obsessed with these swords and armors. After being silent for a while, he euphemistically said that I was not waiting for life and fear of death, but that these weapons were not enough to capture Baizhuang, Cao Chuan sighed and said, "I wanted to practice again tomorrow. Well, let’s find a place, clean and spacious, and don’t have idle people.”

……

Tianmu Mountains, the scenery is magnificent, the peaks are in love with emeralds, the ancient trees are verdant, the dangers of strange rocks and rocks, the victory of flowing springs and waterfalls, the luxuriant trees, the green bamboos, the strange peaks and the clouds, the cliffs, the gurgling water passing through the streams, There is also smoke and white mist lingering on the peak, which is picturesque and beautiful.

A winding line walked among the mountains.The team starting from Pingfengzhai looks like a green worm from a distance, walking through the mountains.

On the 25th of March in the seventh year of the Ming Dynasty, Cao Chuan finally walked out of the mountains and started his own adventure after more than a month after first arriving in Guizhou.

Chapter 24

As the only person in the team sitting on the sliding pole, Cao Zhenren is now complacent.

Underneath is a hard-working bearer, and next to him is an army of bandits who call in front and back.

Along the way, he tried desperately to recall a movie he had seen when he was a child: the old bandit sitting on a sliding pole and holding a bong, the People’s Liberation Army running, the mountain city in the middle of a firefight... Unfortunately, he couldn’t remember the name of the movie, the content of the movie and his The old man's current situation is very appropriate, but this time the PLA is not here to destroy him. Today's script is for him to eliminate harm for the people, and the old man now belongs to the party of justice.

"Sir, I'm afraid I don't know that there are Taoist temples on this mountain. Hehe, Tianmu Mountain is also a blessed place for Taoism. When I'm interested, I'll take my husband to play for a few days. Maybe he can find someone with the same vein, hehe, hehe."

The style of Zhou Dazhai's speech has changed greatly in the past few days. He has suddenly transformed from a person who pays attention to temperament to a long-winded old king next door. Although Cao Chuan is not used to it, he understands that this is exactly the result he wants.

In the afternoon a few days ago, the mountain behind Pingfengzhai, the scorching warhead, the bursting fire, the loud noise, the senior officials of Pingfengzhai who were fortunate to see the power of the "Xianjia Lianzhu Fire Gun", finally put down the "beware of everything." ” mentality, and began to formally evaluate a topic: what can Xianchang bring to everyone?

In fact, someone Cao has always been very puzzled.After the others passed through with bare buttocks, within a few days, the elder brother took off his robes to give way, and the younger brother bowed his head and started all the way to victory.The old man came in a hurry. He brought salt and knives to himself, but he didn't care. This group of people always regarded him as a "dangerous tenant". It can still be seen to prevent him.

Everything changed that afternoon, and he really felt the meaning of the phrase "power comes from the barrel of a gun."Several people in Zhou Tong clearly reached a certain consensus. In the past few days, he began to inquire about his future plans. It also vaguely revealed that if the husband left his brothers in the future, whether it was not very righteous, Cao Chuan could I understand, and I am very satisfied with everyone's current attitude.

Of course, his purpose is not to be the king of the mountain. Right now, he just wants to draw a few people from Pingfengzhai to go to Hangzhou with him.Before that, it was hard to say, but if you say it, you are asking for help, and you can't do business on the pole.Now it is naturally different, the initiative is in hand, and everyone can sit down and talk about career and future together.

Hearing Zhou Tong's introduction to Taoist temples, Cao Chuan smiled and said: "The seniors in the door came out to travel and practice, some of them were incarnation shops, some were coachmen, and some were great merchants, but even those who were not Taoist priests, Taoist temples are also less popular, you Why? It's annoying to see you!"

Zhou Tong laughed: "Mr. straightforward! It turns out that all the seniors went down the mountain to experience, but the dealers and pawns did it, and I admire them."

Having said that, he glanced at Cao Chuan, and then asked inadvertently, "I don't know what your future plans are, sir, is there any place where the brothers can help?"

Cao Chuan knew that there would be such a question, so he laughed, stretched out his hand to take the bamboo tube passed by Zhao Si next to him, and after drinking the mountain spring, Shi Shiran said: "I probably can't be a shopkeeper, and I can't do it these days." After thinking about it, I always feel that I can't wrong myself, and I still need to find a more prosperous place in the future, how about being a rich man?"

Zhou Tong smiled wryly and shook his head: "At Mr.'s age, it's time to make contributions. With great supernatural powers, where can't you make a fortune? What does a rich man have to do? The emperor... cough... can do this too. have to."

Zhou Tong said that he had sex for a while, which felt a little inappropriate, and he was thinking about what to do to remedy it, when he heard Cao Chuan's voice, Shi Shiran, floating from the slider: "The emperor can't do it, it's not in line with Dao, one side Hao Qiang is already at the peak of his luck, let's talk about this later, let me think about it..."

Zhou Tong nodded again and again, shouting back and forth, the team speeded up in vain, Cao Chuan looked back and forth on the sliding pole, and asked Zhao Si, "How long will it take to arrive?"

"Sir, there are still five miles."

This time, Pingfeng Village was really mobilized in full force. After watching the immortal demonstrate the magic weapon, Pingfeng Village took a few days to carry out the second mobilization, except for the one hundred or so people who went down the mountain in advance, not including the left-behind Lv Tent. Old and weak, today's large team has more than 180 people, which is already the entire capital of the village.

According to the plan of the Qingshitai Military Conference, the brigade set off at the fifth watch today, quickly walked the [-]-mile mountain road, rested in Hengtang Village early, recharged for the night, and dispatched all of them tomorrow morning to hit the front of Baizhuang in one breath. Broken village.

Forty miles down the mountain from Pingfeng Village is the official road, and the mountain pass is the small village Hengtang, which is regarded as the dispatched unit of Pingfeng Village.Along the east line of Hengtang, there are Baijiazhuang, Hujiazhuang, Lin'an County, and Hangzhou.

Baizhuang is less than [-] miles away from Hengtang. If the plan goes smoothly, the people from Pingfeng Village will be able to kill them in the afternoon, and they can squeeze in an afternoon to break down the village.

Cao Chuan had no opinion on the plan, he was only responsible for fire suppression.But today, he sat down with a slippery pole all the way, and he was glad that he didn't express his opinion.There are so many people in this mountain, and there are many things that he can't even consider. Today, the forty-mile mountain road alone takes most of the day, and he has to rest, drink water and eat dry food along the way.

Think about the situation in another world where the big brother sends a group letter, and the younger brothers come by taxi within 10 minutes, and then look at the calluses on the feet of these thin, short, and tough mountain people, Cao Chuan was filled with emotion for a while... …

After four o'clock in the afternoon, I finally saw a circle of dirt on the side of the mountain road in the distance, and Hengtang arrived.

Chu Jianli brought people up to meet him from far away, and Cao Zhenren also slid down from the sliding pole with help.There was no way, my legs were numb, and it was a bit embarrassing. After that, everyone filed into the village.

There are only 21 or [-] households in Hengtang. From Cao Chuan's point of view, it is not much different from a poor mountain village in the [-]st century.There are rammed earth houses, bamboo shacks, black and thin children, and villagers with shabby clothes and bare feet.The only thing that interests him is the woman peeking out from behind the window.It's not that he's hungry, it's really the first time he's seen a woman since coming to the Ming Dynasty, so he still can't see her face clearly, but I also know that there won't be any beautiful women.

The village is not far from the official road. There is a pond outside the village, surrounded by a wall of rammed earth. Cao Chuan, surrounded by the crowd, and under the eager gazes of two rows of warriors along the road, came to the front of a large house in the middle of the village. Seeing that Zhou Tong was talking to a few old men, there were two bags of salt grains they picked up with the team at his feet.

Zhou Tong knew Cao Chuan's temper, so he didn't introduce it to Cao Chuan. He walked over and said, "The villagers also need to contribute their efforts these days. Those few are clan elders, and they are all familiar with each other. The good salt brought by Mr. Bags, for some flesh and blood, to feed the brothers today, so that they will have the strength to fight tomorrow."

Chapter 25

As Zhou Tong led him to the village, he said, "The house in the back is fairly neat, and the gentleman will stay for one night. I should be able to live in the house tomorrow."

Cao Chuan laughed and chose a not so dilapidated room to rest in.Looking at the simple bamboo bed and the seemingly unclean bed in the house, I found a sheet from the ring and put it on, and then I loosened my muscles.It's not easy to ride on the pole, especially after riding the forty-mile mountain road in one breath.

After resting on the bed for two hours, I went out after dark. The courtyard was full of people, and pieces of meat were rolling in several large pots.Seeing Cao Chuan come out, Zhou Tong hurried over with a bowl of fermented brew: "The elders set a rule to drink three bowls before going into battle. Afterwards, if you can come back alive, then open it up and drink it, sir, let's do a bowl too."

Cao Chuan didn't drink much of the wine here, he usually drank tea. He always felt that these local brews had a strange smell and the degree of strength was not enough.But there is no way this can be done. Everyone is watching, and if you don't drink, you will have no reputation.

Amid the cheers of everyone around, someone drank the wine in the bowl in one go.

In fact, these people know himself far better than Cao Chuan imagined. In a closed group, anything will spread at an extremely fast speed, not to mention the characters in stories such as Cao Daochang.

As for the rumbling of the mountain in the past few days, and even today's whole group going down the mountain, everyone is well aware of it, but because of the strict order of the master, it is difficult to talk about it publicly.

Seeing Cao Chuan drinking heavily, Chen Erye was also very happy. After drinking a bowl together, he came to the middle of the venue and loudly expressed his gratitude for the gift of the knife. Tomorrow, he will cut off the dog's head of the Bai brothers to serve Mr.

Next, Mr. Chen had to use the newly acquired treasured sword to show everyone a set of fighting Bafang swordsmanship. Zhou Tong was also helpless, so Chen Huoding shouted and fought amidst the cheers and played a lot of routines. The knife is still sheathed.

Finally it was Mr. Zhou's turn to speak. The leader is still capable. He said that Mr. Cao is now a blessing from everyone's previous life. Pingfeng Village is about to usher in a big development, so everyone should keep up with the boss. , seize the opportunity, and order everyone to have another bowl...

After the swearing-in meeting, the whole group started to eat, and there is no limit today, and the meat and bone sticks are full of brown rice.Cao Chuan took a few bites and went to bed. After a night, the dogs in the village barked before dawn. By the time he washed up and came out for breakfast, most of the people were already preparing their weapons.

As soon as it was dawn, Zhou Dazhai, the master of the village, jumped on the table and shouted loudly: "Bai Zhuang's group of dogs and brothers have been fighting for many years, and the enemy is as deep as the sea. Turn your face, wait for this stake to be pulled out, all the people in Lin'an County will be happy for three days, and the money will come out of the public treasury, I will not live anymore!"

More than 200 lean men roared at the same time, all raising their knives, axes and spears.Zhou Tong looked around and with a wave of his hand, Chen Erye had turned into a special policeman, wearing a stab-proof suit, with a pig knife on his waist, and went first, followed by the mountain people with high morale.And Master Cao, on the other hand, drank the meat porridge calmly, and waited until he gnawed another pig bone, then Shi Shiran sat on the sliding pole and followed him away...
