Wang Zhizhen called Li Canghai over." Canghai, these four heavy machine guns are all equipped in your post. You've been promoted from your current post leader to the battalion commander. Go to the barracks and find 500 people immediately. Including the two heavy machine guns in your post, there are a total of six heavy machine guns. Form a fire support battalion. Wherever there's danger, go and provide reinforcements. The first line of defense can be withdrawn. You guys set up the second line of defense.”
"Yes, my lord! I'll prepare it immediately."
A new day had begun. Wang Zhizhen was already clear about the rules of the God of Wealth System, so he planned to walk around the streets and see if there was anything good to do so that the system would reward him with something.
"Shopkeeper, please sell us the grain!”A woman with a child was kneeling in a grain store.
"Men! Go and ask what's going on!" A soldier immediately went to the door of the grain store and asked the woman what was going on.
After a while, he came back to report,"Sir! It was the shopkeeper who did not sell food to this mother and son, saying that there was no more food in the grain store.”
"Then did you check if there was any food in the grain store?”
"I've seen it. And a lot! It was sold at a high price, and the woman couldn't afford it, so she begged the shopkeeper to sell it to her at a low price. The shopkeeper refused, and this happened.”
Wang Zhizhen walked forward and helped the mother and son up." Wait a moment," she said." I'll be right back."”The two of them nodded and watched as the lord entered the grain store.
"Shopkeeper, I will buy all the food in your shop. How much is it in total? Give me a price!" Wang Zhizhen said as she entered.
" Sir, we are a small business.”
"Then! This is 10,000 taels of silver. I'm buying it sincerely, so please give me a price sincerely!”
"Men! Go to the county treasury and give him 50,000 taels of silver. Remember, from now on, you have to sell these grains at whatever price I say. All of A's five wens per 500 grams have already been delivered to me. I'll start immediately. Hang up the sign!”
"My lord! This kind of grain that was worth 60,000 silvers could not even be sold for 6000 taels! You'll die from losing money! "The shopkeeper said.
"I'm the Defender of the Four Cities. The commoners can't even afford to eat their food, so I bought it to help them. I also sold some food to earn some money, but this money is my personal money. If you dare to take a single cent, I'll chop you up, understand?”
"Understood! Understood! My lord! If you had said so earlier, this servant would have known. I would have immediately done it beautifully for you!”The shopkeeper said with a smile.
Just like that, Wang Zhizhen wandered around the city for a long time. As long as there was a good thing, he would immediately rush forward to do it. As a result, the people in the city called him the Great God of Wealth, the Great Philosopher, and the Great Honest Official.
"Be quiet! Listen to me! Lord Wang is distributing rice and noodles! Lord Wang has distributed food! Each family only needed five wen to get ten catties of grain! "First come, first served. If you're late, there won't be any left ~~~" Wang Zhizhen let his personal guards shout throughout the city so that the commoners could get rice and noodles!
After Nie Cheng retreated from the direction of the Green River, he had been staying in the Xiangyang County Magistrate's Mansion. He had gathered more than 13,000 soldiers, but there were only about 1,000 rifles. The rest were all broadswords and spears. They were completely ineffective against the Japanese army, which had only one rifle each. Wang Zhizhen's troops were stationed outside the city, so Nie Cheng was in charge of the city and commanded the battle according to Wang Zhizhen's suggestion.
Wang Zhizhen went to the county's treasury and exchanged the remaining 80,000 taels of silver for a total of 100,000 yuan.
"The system store is open!" The system's cold voice sounded.
"A whole 100,000 yuan to open the system store. Let's see what we can buy!”
"A G98 rifle costs 100 dollars each, with 100 rounds of ammunition. This was too expensive! Brother Ma's new heavy machine gun was 2500 dollars each, with 5000 rounds of ammunition, 60 mortars were 20,000 dollars each, and 50 grenades. No one knew how to use it? Miss France Infantry Cannon 72 caliber howitzer 100,000 each, with 50 shells. I can't afford this! The grenade was worth 20 dollars each. Take the Breakthrough Cannon for 15000 dollars each and bring ten shells. I'll buy three of these!”Wang Zhizhen looked at the price the system was selling. It was really too expensive, and it was not worth it. However, there was no other way. There was no place to buy firearms now. Nowadays, bullets and shells were one shot less.
"Hmm, why is General Wang here? Is there something wrong?”The guard at the door stopped Wang Zhizhen and said.
"Please inform him that Wang Zhizhen is seeking an audience with Vice Commander Nie!”Wang Zhizhen said.
"Come in! There's no need to announce it. I heard your loud voice. What's the matter today? I haven't seen you for a few days. I'm busy now. If there's anything, hurry up and say it.”Nie Cheng looked at the map anxiously.
"I heard that the soldiers under Vice Commander Nie have no weapons and equipment. I have a batch of firearms that I want to offer, but I need some money.”
"Military Fire! If you can really get a batch of firearms, you must know that there are no jokes in the military.”Nie Cheng asked happily.
"There is a batch, but the enemy wants too much silver. They actually want one million taels of silver. They must be raising the price on the spot, so I want to ask how much silver we have left. Although we can't buy this batch of firearms, we can buy as much as we can. We can't let our brothers fight with the enemy's rifles with swords!”
"I do have a hundred thousand taels of military pay here, but if I go to buy firearms and can't pay the military pay, what should I do? Let me think!" Nie Cheng said thoughtfully.
Wang Zhizhen didn't dare to disturb him and just watched quietly from the side. If it wasn't for the lack of money, Wang Zhizhen wouldn't have had this idea. There was no other way. The system needed money too.
Nie Cheng slammed the table as if he had made a huge decision."I can give you the silver, but you have to buy at least 3000 guns. Each gun has 100 bullets. Otherwise!" I'm going to chop off your head!“
"Sir, this transaction requires both parties to be willing. This subordinate does not dare to guarantee it!”
" I'm not as daring as you. If you can't buy 3000 guns, I'll chop off your head." Nie Cheng looked at Wang Zhizhen with a serious expression. He didn't say a word and just watched.
After a while.
"Alright, I'll take a step back. We can't lose 3,000 firearms, but we can lose some bullets.”Nie Cheng looked at Wang Zhizhen guiltily, hoping that he would understand his painstaking efforts.
