"What should we do? Why did ten boxes of firearms suddenly disappear?”
"Auntie, you don't have to be too anxious. The current situation is so chaotic. Uncle Jiang has been working with the French concession for so many years.”
"Min 'er, if it was any other time, I wouldn't be so worried, but you should have heard that the protector of Songhu County is about to be replaced. I'm afraid that someone is trying to cause trouble behind this matter.”
......
In the room, Jiang Hai Feng slowly opened his eyes.
Hearing the muttering in his ears, Jiang Hai Feng was a little stunned as he sorted out the memories in his mind.
1917, Songhu, Jiang family.
Had he transmigrated to the Republic of China?
Hiss!
As a person of the later generation, Jiang Hai Feng was extremely clear.
If this era could be said to be the darkest era in the recent history of Yan Huang.
Then 1917 was definitely the darkest period.
At this time, Old Yuan should have just passed away.
Although Old Yuan didn't have any achievements, he could be considered the leader of those warlords.
If he was alive, the other forces would still have some scruples.
With Old Yuan gone, the last shackle on the warlords was untied.
The various factions would be restless.
However, this was not something he could control now.
Right now, the most important thing was their family.
Jiang Haifeng tugged at his horn and felt a headache.
The Jiang family was considered a wealthy family in Songhu.
All of this was thanks to Master Jiang's courage in the early years. He had snatched a rich oil business in the chaotic land of Shanghai.
Arms transport!
The various factions of Yan and Huang had their own troops, and guns and ammunition were always the scarcest items for these people.
However, all the factions did not have the ability to make their own guns and ammunition at this time.
Even the arsenal established by the previous dynasty was either abandoned at this point in time or had insufficient productivity. It was far from reaching the number needed by the warlords.
If he remembered correctly, the largest arsenal should be the Jiangnan Machinery Manufacturing Bureau.
Although it was said to be the largest, the number of guns produced every month was only a few hundred.
Now that there were so many factions, and there were no less than a dozen warlords in various places, even if the presidential palace could be fair and just, the number of guns distributed would probably not be as many as the number of people who went to collect them.
The only way to expand the army was to buy from foreigners.
However, the various empires had always disliked each other because of the distribution of benefits.
They were happy to sell some broken weapons for money, but no one was willing to give the other empires an excuse to be attacked.
Therefore, under this abnormal thinking, the weapons transportation work of the various empires and various places was handed over to the Yan Huang people themselves.
The Jiang family was the middleman responsible for transporting the firearms to the warlords.
However, there were ten boxes of weapons missing this time.
10 boxes of firearms, 12 rifles per box, a total of 120 rifles.
Logically speaking, it was impossible for the French to punish them for a mere hundred guns.
The Jiang family had been established in Songhu for so many years. Although it was not a big family business, its connections in the four directions could not be underestimated.
In the business world, it was unreasonable to destroy a partnership for such a small profit.
Unless destroying this cooperation could bring greater benefits to someone.
"Mother, where is father?"
Lifting the blanket on the bed, Jiang Hai Feng touched the back of his head. Suddenly, a burning pain surged through his entire body.
In his memory, he was ambushed.
The Jiang Family's firearms were lost, and the only son of the Jiang Family was almost killed.
It would be nonsense to say that this was a coincidence.
In his memory, he was the only one who could trap others in Songhu City. Who would dare to trap him?
Seeing Jiang Haifeng sit up from the bed, the two women in the room, who were originally anxious, suddenly turned happy.
"Feng 'er, quickly lie down. It's good that you're fine, it's good that you're fine. Don't worry, I've already informed the police station in each concession to find the culprit who ambushed you. They're a bunch of bastards. They even dared to hurt the only son of our Jiang family. Do they really think that our family has fallen?”
Looking at the doting and loving look in Mother Jiang's eyes, Jiang Haifeng smiled silently in his heart.
As expected, his original character of committing all kinds of evil mostly came from this excessive pampering.
However, this was not a bad thing.
With this doting, at the very least, there would not be a fire in the backyard in the future.
Jiang Haifeng turned to look at the woman who was standing quietly with her hands wrapped around her purse. He narrowed his eyes.
Zhao Yumin was the eldest daughter of the Zhao family in Songhu County.
Compared to the Jiang family's firearms business, the Zhao family's business was spread across all walks of life.
The two families had been friends since the old master's generation.
Looking at Zhao Yumin, Jiang Haifeng muttered,""Yumin, has there been any ups and downs in your Zhao family's business recently?”
Hearing Jiang Hai Feng's question, Zhao Yumin was obviously stunned.
Mother Jiang was also surprised.
In the past, her son was addicted to eating, drinking, and having fun. She would be grateful if he did not cause trouble. Why was he suddenly concerned about business?
Zhao Yumin frowned, then nodded with a heavy face,""Yes, our family's stores in several concessions have suddenly been temporarily closed down these days. His father was currently busy because of this matter.”
As expected.
Jiang Hai Feng narrowed his eyes.
No one knew better than him.
In this era, if one was only a businessman, they would end up as leeks and be reaped by those powers and warlords.
In an era where hundreds of boats were competing for power, waiting for death meant waiting for death.
If his guess was correct, when the Governor of the French Settlement came to his door, he would try his best to cut off the Jiang family's arms business.
Once this business was cut off, the Jiang family would still have a good life in the Tiger Fall Plain.
The worst possibility was that the Jiang family would be removed from Songhu.
And all of this was probably related to Lu Yongxiang, who was about to take office.
The warlords colluded with the foreigners to scheme for their own people's property. From the perspective of those people, it was definitely a mutual benefit.
"Ding! The Chaotic World Ambition System is binding!"
"Binding successful!"
"The novice gift pack is being distributed. In view of the host's current state, the system has given you two choices.”
"One: 50 boxes of finished guns. The model is a Lebel rifle."
" Second, you need to help the Jiang family solve the Military Fire problem. The reward will be based on your action score. The initial rating was D, and the highest was S.”
Jiang Hai Feng's eyes turned cold when he heard the voice in his mind.
