Seeing Lu Chen hang up the phone, Mother Lu quickly asked, "Xiao Chen, who are you calling."
Lu Chen said: "I'm giving it to my elder brother. He said he will be back today."
"The boss is coming back, Xiaochen, did you lie to me?" Mother Lu confirmed.
"I didn't lie to you, eldest brother has already made an agreement with me."
Lu Chen returned.
Mother Lu shouted upstairs with excitement: "Old man, Jianming is coming back today."
After a while, Father Lu came downstairs again.
"Old woman, what are you saying, Jianming is coming back?"
Mother Lu nodded and said, "Yes, Xiaochen called Jianming, and Jianming told him he would be back today."
Father Lu said: "Didn't he say that he is very busy now and is preparing to go to Guangzhou to fight? How can he have time to come back?"
Lu Chen asked doubtfully: "Brother, are you going to fight in Guangzhou?"
Father Lu ignored Lu Chen's question and asked Lu Chen, "Is what your mother said true? Is your eldest brother really going to come back?"
Lu Chen said: "Why did I lie to you? He will definitely come back."
Hearing Lu Chen's affirmative answer, Mother Lu quickly ordered her servants to start cleaning the house. Then he asked people to go out to buy groceries. He is also planning to cook by himself, making some of the Lu family's favorite foods, and preparing to welcome brother Lu Chen back.
Looking at the busy family, Lu Chen couldn't help but feel sad for the original owner. Look at this treatment. When I heard that my eldest brother was coming back, the family started getting busy, as if it was the New Year.
When he came back, he was scolded. Original owner, what a sin you have done.
In the evening, Lu Jiaming brought someone back home.
As soon as he entered the villa, Lu Jiaming called: "Xiaochen, where are you? I brought my commander back."
Mother Lu heard her eldest son's voice and ran out quickly.
"Jia Ming, you are back and you have brought guests back."
Father Lu also walked out. Seeing that Lu Jiaming had brought someone back, he quickly greeted:
"It turns out that Chief Jiaming is here. Please sit down quickly. Please sit down."
Lu Chen was the last one to come out. He slowly came down from upstairs and found a seat to sit down carelessly.
Father Lu saw Lu Chen's appearance and couldn't help but lecture him: "Sit tight, don't you see there are guests at home?"
Lu Chen curled his lips and ignored Father Lu. He looked at the old man sitting opposite and said, "Are you my eldest brother's commander?"
The old man said: "I am Lu Jiaming's army commander. I heard Jiaming say that little brother has a batch of German equipment. I don't know if it is true."
Lu Chen nodded and said, "I do have a batch of German-style equipment. You must have heard from my brother about the quantity. I don't know how much money you are going to spend to buy this equipment, sir."
The old man thought for a moment and said, "I'll pay 70 silver dollars for the rifle, and 1,000 silver dollars for Maxim. What do you think?"
Lu Chen sat up straight and said, "How much do you want?"
The old man smiled and said, "I want as much as you have."
Lu Chen said calmly: "Old sir, please don't lie. I didn't say that I only have this batch of equipment. Don't worry about not having so much money by then."
The old man smiled and said: "Little brother, don't brag. You are already capable of getting one batch. How can you get a second batch? I don't believe it."
Lu Chen smiled and said: "Old sir, I really didn't lie to you. This is just the first batch I got. I have already set up a line in Germany. If necessary, I can still get a few more batches." of."
The old man looked at Lu Chen with some surprise. Looking at Lu Jiaming with questioning eyes, Lu Jiaming could only shake his head, saying that he didn't know whether what Lu Chen said was true.
The old man turned around and said to Lu Chen: "Let's talk about this batch in my little brother's hands. I want all your heavy machine guns, and I also want 14,000 rifles."
Lu Chen quickly began to calculate in his mind. He got back 450 Maxim heavy machine guns, which is 450,000 silver dollars, and 14,000 rifles, which is 70 each, which is 980,000 silver dollars. A total of 1.43 million silver dollars.
Lu Chen was completely shocked when he thought about it. He couldn't help but sigh, Damn, it's still a huge profit from arms. This time around, I became a millionaire. This much money, I guess even my cheap dad can't afford it.
Lu Chen suppressed the excitement in his heart and said quickly: "Okay, a total of 1.43 million silver dollars. How do you plan to pay the old gentleman?"
I took a box from Lu Jiaming, opened it and pushed it to Lu Chen.
"Here's $700,000. I don't know if it's enough."
Lu Chen felt excited when he saw so many U.S. dollars. He knew that the ratio of U.S. dollars to silver dollars was 1:2. Although it seemed like he was short of 30,000 silver dollars, U.S. dollars could be used in more places than silver dollars.
Lu Chen quickly said: "That's enough, that's enough. Now I'll take you, old gentleman, to see the equipment?"
The old man looked at Lu Chen's parents, waved his hands and said, "No rush, it's not too late to have dinner first and then go."
Father Lu heard the old man and Lu Chen talking about equipment. He pulled Lu Jiaming aside and asked, "Jia Ming, what are your superiors and Lu Chen talking about."
Lu Jiaming didn't want his father to know that Lu Chen was in the arms business. After all, smuggling arms was very risky. He didn't want his father to worry about Lu Chen, so he said:
"It's just that Xiaochen got a batch of good equipment. Our army needs these equipments, so the commander is going to buy them from Xiaochen."
"It turns out to be equipment."
Father Lu thought for a while and then asked: "Jia Ming, is he planning to sell our factory's equipment to your army commander? No, I have to stop this little bastard."
Lu Jiaming quickly grabbed his father. He explained: "It's not the equipment in the factory, it's other equipment. It's for the army. The equipment in our textile factory can't be used by our army."
After hearing Lu Jiaming's words, Father Lu felt relieved.
Seeing that his father was relieved, Lu Jiaming quickly asked, "Dad, do you know where Lu Chen got this batch of equipment? And where did Lu Chen go during this time? Did he tell you?"
When Father Lu mentioned this, he became angry and said:
"This little brat has hardened wings now, and he made me very angry when he came back, so I didn't ask him."
Lu Jiaming explained: "Father, I think you should not let Lu Chen take over the factory. He has been wild-tempered since he was a child. He is not suitable for managing a factory."
Father Lu said angrily: "If you don't let him take over, who can take over?"
"I originally had three sons. You went to be a soldier, and now you are a brigade commander. You must not be able to take over. And the second son, now I can't even find him. Where can I find him and come back to take over? factory."
When Lu Jiaming heard what Lu's father said, he also found that only Lu Chen could take over the family's factory, and he felt helpless.
Seeing the old man waving him over, Lu Jiaming quickly said goodbye to Father Lu and walked over.
After Lu Chen finished talking to the old man and finished eating at home, he took Lu Jiaming and the old man out of the villa and rushed to the factory.
Lu Jiaming asked Lu Chen: "Xiaochen, where have you been during this time? Why is there no news at all? My family has asked me to help find you."
Lu Chen explained: "Didn't the factory lose sales during this period of my childhood? I went abroad to resolve this matter."
Lu Jiaming didn't expect that Lu Chen had gone abroad. He continued to ask: "Then when you went to that country, how did you solve this matter?"
Lu Chen didn't hide anything and said directly: "Isn't there an international student who came back from Germany in my factory? I transported our fabrics to Germany with him, and then met a noble man in Germany and exchanged all the goods with weapons. .And also reached a cooperation with me."
Hearing this, Lu Jiaming and the old man also knew where Lu Chen's weapons came from. But Lu Jiaming was confused. Such a large batch of goods could not be exchanged for the fabrics he produced. he asked:
"Xiaochen, I know how much fabric we have in our factory, but we can't exchange it for so many weapons."
Lu Chen said with a smile: "If you sell it normally, you won't be able to get so much in exchange, but the noble man I met is not an ordinary person. In his eyes, these fabrics are worth so many weapons."
Lu Jiaming said quickly: "Then can you help me introduce this noble person..."
Lu Chen quickly said: "Brother, let's stop. You know the rules. It's impossible for me to reveal my business partners to you."
When Lu Jiaming heard what Lu Chen said, he stopped asking.
The car arrived at the factory quickly. Lu Chen took Lu Jiaming and the old man into the factory and arrived at the warehouse.
As soon as he arrived at the warehouse, Lu Jiaming narrowed his eyes when he saw a few people standing in front of the warehouse. He quickly grabbed Lu Chen and asked seriously: "Xiao Chen, who are these foreigners?"
Seeing Lu Jiaming's serious look, Lu Chen immediately smiled and said, "Brother, relax, they are all my employees."
After speaking, Lu Chen walked towards the warehouse and called out: "Hey, Hans, Martin, Ike, Locke, why are you here?"
Hans said: "There are so many weapons here. I was worried that something would go wrong, so I took a few of them here to watch."
Lu Chen waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I have found a buyer and these things will be moved away soon."
Then Lu Chen pointed to Lu Jiaming and the old man and said, "These two are the buyers. I will take them to see the goods."
Hans nodded to Lu Jiaming.
Lu Chen turned around and introduced to Lu Jiaming: "These are the employees I invited back from Germany, Hans, Martin, Ike, and Locke."
Lu Jiaming also nodded to Hans and others as a greeting.
Lu Chen led Lu Jiaming and Lu Jiaming into the warehouse, then pointed at the neatly stacked boxes and said, "Brother, the weapons are all here. You can take the weapons away as long as you pay the money."
Lu Jiaming walked to the box, picked one and opened it. After confirming that it was indeed a Mauser rifle, he nodded towards the old man.
The old man handed the box containing the money to Lu Chen, and then said to Lu Jiaming: "Inform your troops to come here to move things."
After Lu Jiaming replied "Yes", he asked Lu Chen: "Where is your phone number here?"
Lu Chen pointed to his office.
Lu Jiaming ran over quickly, and ran back after a while and said to the old man: "I have made arrangements, and the people moving the goods will be here soon."
Not long after, a Sanbengzi and two military vehicles arrived in front of the warehouse.
Lu Chen took a look and saw that they were still old acquaintances, and it was Wu Kai who came with his troops again.
When Wu Kai arrived at the warehouse, he immediately ran to Lu Jiaming and saluted.
Lu Jiaming said, "There's no need to say hello. You can just load the things inside and take them away."
Lu Chen quickly ran over and pointed at the bullets in the corner of the warehouse and said, "You don't need to move those things. Also, leave me 20 boxes of the stuff inside."
Wu Kai looked at Lu Jiaming, and Lu Jiaming nodded to indicate that he listened to Lu Chen.
This time Wu Kai brought more people, and it didn't take long to load the goods into the car and then left the factory.
After the matter was done, Lu Jiaming was ready to leave with the old man.
Lu Chen quickly grabbed Lu Jiaming and said, "Brother, why don't you stay at home for a few more days?"
Seeing this scene, the old man said to Lu Jiaming: "Jiaming, just stay at home for two more days to spend time with your family, and report to the army in three days."
Lu Jiaming saluted the old man with a military salute.
The old man waved his hand and left in the car alone.
