Okay, now you can be nicer to Tang Shengbao.
This guy can attract Japanese firepower. Help him attract the Japanese invaders.
Killing Japanese invaders was his specialty.
It would be better if you could hide in the dark and be an old yinbi.
Baby, thank you for your hard work...
"Who owns the house next door?" Zhang Yong asked Yang Zhi, "Go and investigate."
"No need. The house next door belongs to our family." Tang Shengbao replied.
"From your family?" Zhang Yong thought.
"Yes. It belongs to my house." Tang Shengbao explained, "But no one has lived there for a long time."
"Why?"
"Because our family has a lot of houses. There are five houses on Jiafei Road alone. There are three more on Masinan Road. There are also houses on Foch Road and Pétain Road. Where can I live here?"
Zhang Yong:......
Oh my god, the boss is the boss.
Buying a house in the concession is easier than buying cabbage. Listen. There are five sets in Xiafei Road alone.
Xiafei Road is a place where every inch of land is at a premium. It is the most prosperous place in the entire concession. In the whole of Shanghai, the most prosperous one is Xiafei Road. It's simply a status symbol.
"Then give me a set to put things in."
"Put what?"
"Weapons and ammunition."
"Okay. You are my eldest brother, and you will do whatever you say."
"Okay. That's settled."
Zhang Yong was in a happy mood.
If you save Tang Shengbao, you won’t need any more money.
He didn't dare to take the money given by those big guys. But it should be no problem to borrow a house to store some weapons and ammunition.
After checking it above, hehe, this is the Tang family's house. There are weapons and ammunition inside, which is normal.
With the status of the Tang family, even the Concession Industry Bureau must give them some face.
"Brother Shaolong, where do you want a house?"
"Where is the most hidden place?"
"Ma Sinan Road."
"That's okay. Just find one on Masinan Road. All I need is a room. The basement is best."
"Our houses all have basements."
"Is there one next door too?"
"have."
"What's in the basement?"
"Weapons and ammunition."
"What?"
Zhang Yong was stunned. I thought I heard wrong.
You big-headed doll, what are you talking about? Are there weapons and ammunition in the basement?
Nonsense! If so, wouldn't those people know about it just now?
"I'll tell you a secret..."
"What?"
"There are also hidden compartments in the basement."
"real?"
"Really. I'll take you there."
"good!"
Zhang Yong felt incredible.
Good guy, if he really had weapons and ammunition, he would be so happy.
No need to buy it either.
It hurts to make him spend money to buy weapons and ammunition.
Even if it is a very reasonable price, I would not give it up. Or grab it...that's not right. The confiscation came quickly.
"This way!"
Tang Shengbao took Zhang Yong into the basement next door.
The basement has been opened. The contents inside had also been rifled through. But nothing seemed to be found.
Zhang Yong carefully compared the system map. Discover a hidden space.
It's small, less than a meter wide. About two meters in length and a little over one meter in height? I thought it was a cabinet. But I don't know where to open it.
"Pry this open."
Tang Shengbao pointed to an empty wall.
This wall is very noticeable. You can see it as soon as you enter the door. There is nothing on it.
"pry?"
"Yes. Use a knife to pry it open carefully."
"Where to pry?"
"Let me think about it. It should be the fifth row from the left and the seventh row from the bottom."
"Well……"
Zhang Yong counted the tiles one by one.
Finally found the target tile. Use a dagger to carefully pry open along the gap.
Sure enough, the tiles can be pried open. After prying it loose, remove the entire tile.
There is a small dent in the back.
There seems to be a switch hidden inside the recess?
Turning to look at Tang Shengbao.
Tang Shengbao said: "Be careful. Three light and three heavy. First press the light one three times, then twist it 180 degrees, and then press the heavy one three times. If you press it wrong..."
"Will it explode?" Zhang Yong's face immediately turned bad.
"Of course not." Tang Shengbao shook his head, "But it will malfunction for a while. Maybe half a month. It can no longer be turned on within half a month."
"So advanced?" Zhang Yong felt incredible.
Isn’t this the mobile phone lock screen of later generations? If you enter the wrong password, you will be unable to operate for a period of time.
If you press it too hard, the disabled operation time will become longer and longer. If not, the phone will become bricked.
wipe……
Was shocked...
"I asked someone to do it. I don't know the details."
"Let me try."
Zhang Yong took a deep breath. Operate carefully.
Fortunately nothing went wrong.
The wall silently cracked from the left side, revealing a hidden space.
Exactly the same as shown on the system map. But there were dozens of long guns placed there. And pistols. And ammunition. Stuffed to the brim. Almost fell out.
"so much?"
Zhang Yong was stunned.
sky! Enough to equip half a company!
"What is this?" Tang Shengbao curled his lips, "The most I have ever seen are hundreds of guns."
"No..." Zhang Yong hesitated.
Then he shook his head again.
The Tang family are all leaders of the Hunan Army. It’s not surprising that there are weapons and ammunition.
Hidden some weapons and ammunition in various places, firstly for self-defense, and secondly, if something happens, you can make a comeback.
The centipede insect is dead but not stiff.
A cunning rabbit has three burrows, so be prepared.
"Yang Zhi!"
"arrive!"
"Take a careful inventory."
"good!"
Yang Zhi comes up. Count carefully.
Zhang Yong looked around. thought. Such a concealed switch is also wonderful.
It's actually placed in the most conspicuous position.
Who would have thought that there were weapons and ammunition hidden inside a bare wall.
Although he knew there was such a hidden space inside. However, if you can't find the switch, it will take a little effort to open it.
Maybe they're too lazy to smash it.
Last time I spent a long time in Huaigui's villa, but I didn't gain much.
Soon, Yang Zhi counted them out.
There were thirty-five rifles of different models. One thousand four hundred rounds of various bullets.
All short guns are shell guns. Exactly ten. Five hundred bullets.
There were also thirty wooden handle grenades.
It is indeed possible to equip half a company. If you have enough manpower, you can definitely do a lot in the concession.
"Take out all the shell guns."
"I don't want the rifle just yet."
Zhang Yong ordered.
The rifle target is too conspicuous to carry.
Besides, the battles in the concession were all short-range, so bolt-action rifles were useless.
Everything is ready. Seal the secret room again.
Got an idea. After completing the mission, return the weapons and ammunition here. Then left the concession empty-handed.
Suddenly someone came to report.
"Captain, a patrolman is coming outside..."
"how many people?"
"On a."
"Be alert."
"yes!"
Zhang Yong came out.
Sure enough, I saw Zhu Yuan. Didn't see anyone else.
Check the map. No significant increase in nearby small dots was found. There should be no ambush.
This Zhu Yuan did come here alone.
He immediately walked out and called: "Zhu Yuan, this way!"
Zhu Yuan was a little stunned.
Isn't it the 28th? Why is it next door?
"Come in!"
"good!"
Zhu Yuan hurried in.
Saw the little boy next to Zhang Yong. I breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you Tang Shengbao?"
"Who are you?"
"I'm from the patrol house in the concession. My name is Zhu Yuan."
"What are you doing here?"
"It's really you."
"You know I was kidnapped?"
"Of course. Your third brother has issued a reward for finding you, and the reward will be three hundred thousand oceans."
"Brother Shaolong, let me tell you, I will definitely give you money."
"this……"
Zhang Yong was speechless.
The Old Tang family is really rich!
Mr. Tang San was also very wealthy. The price is 300,000 yuan.
Three hundred thousand, a huge amount of money!
His principles were immediately shattered.
Okay, money is enough. Since others are willing to give, shouldn’t he dare to accept it?
In short, I didn’t ask for money myself.
I really do good things...
"You seem nervous?" Zhang Yong asked Zhu Yuan.
"The Japanese have been very active recently." Zhu Yuan obviously did not dare to speak too clearly.
"What's going on with Akagi Gaochun?"
"Well, the Japanese are stretching their hands longer and longer. Not only did they obtain the position of assistant to the police commissioner, but they also placed more than fifty people in the patrol room. Now, every patrol room has Japanese spies. The Japanese all know what we do. No, I don’t dare to bring anyone out now. Even if they are not Japanese. No one knows who has been bribed by the Japanese."
"The Japanese want to control the concession?"
"It's not about controlling the concession. It's mainly about targeting the anti-Japanese elements."
"The French have no objection?"
"I don't know. Anyway, Akagi Gaochun has taken office."
"Haha. Birds of a feather."
Zhang Yong naturally knew what was going on.
Now that the Japanese have not threatened the core interests of Britain and the United States, they will naturally not obstruct it.
On the contrary, they took advantage of the Japanese invasion and gained a lot of benefits themselves. It seems that the United States has made a lot of money exporting scrap steel and the like.
The French also took the opportunity to sell large quantities of weapons to the Yunnan Army. Seek various benefits from the Southwest.
This is typical eating at both ends.
Make money from both sides of the war. The same will be true in later generations.
but……
Once their core interests are damaged, they will immediately fall out.
For example, if the Japanese want to acquire rubber and oil from Southeast Asia, Britain and the United States will immediately wake up.
In the final analysis, it is all about interests.
It's useless to say anything now. There is no way to change the facts.
Little people can only accept it.
"Then our future actions in the concession will be subject to many restrictions?"
"definitely."
"If we start shooting on Joffre Road..."
"Don't, don't, don't!"
Zhu Yuan was startled. Hastily stopped him.
Shooting on Joffre Road? That's really tough.
Xiafei Road is the longest and busiest road in the French Concession. It is also the facade of the concession. Is it okay to use a gun there?
"What will happen?"
"You will be chased and intercepted by the patrol house. There may even be troops dispatched."
"What if we retreat quickly?"
"I'm afraid it will be difficult. Once the gun is fired, all the checkpoints will be closed. Especially now that the Japanese are involved, the checkpoints are very strict. It is difficult to bring in weapons."
"But it seems that some people can sell arms in the concession?"
"Are you talking about the Tiandihui? Now the Japanese are also targeting them, and their life must be difficult."
"What if I kill Akagi Gaochun?"
"The Japanese will bring another person. It's useless. They will also use this to recruit more people into the concession."
"So, there is no solution?"
"In short, don't use guns in the concession in the future. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles."
"Understood……"
Zhang Yong said to himself.
That is, every time you come, don't reveal your identity. It doesn't matter if you reveal your identity. As long as you refuse to admit it.
Then there was a fight. Bring enough weapons and ammunition. No matter how many enemies come, kill them all. It would be best if you come from Japan.
That’s how you understand it, right?
That's right...
