After meeting with the German arms dealer that day, Mu Yaping was a little anxious. After coming out of the Western restaurant, Hou Degui's words made him feel even more ashamed. Hou Degui said: "Nephew, you are too impatient, and the seller has not contacted you well. You are so anxious that you are so rash to make me believe you."

Mu Yaping said: "Uncle Hou, don't worry, my people will bring good news soon." Hou Degui said: "Okay! I'm waiting for your good news. It's not that I have a relationship with overseas Chinese. I don't see a rabbit or a hawk." Although Mu Yaping swears, he can't guarantee that Jiang Sen and Wang Debiao can return with a full load. The key is that this arms trade missed, and he will miss an opportunity to quickly make a lot of money, which is the main reason for his anxiety.

When he returned home in the evening, he returned to the house without eating a few bites of food. Wanqiu said with concern: "Cousin, do you feel uncomfortable when you see you didn't eat much for dinner?" This kind of thing cannot be said to Wanqiu. Mu Yaping said a few perfunctory words and then lay in bed early and couldn't fall asleep. He thought to himself: If Jiang Sen and Wang Debiao cannot come back in time, what should he do if the deal is not settled?

Mu Yaping didn't sleep well all night. When he woke up in the morning, he ate a few bites and rushed to Zhongyi Martial Arts Hall without stopping. The rickshaw was still a distance from Zhongyi Martial Arts Hall. Mu Yaping saw Lu Chuanxiong and Chen Zhanshan standing in front of the door, looking up at him and seemed very urgent. Mu Yaping was happy and felt that there was a chance.

As soon as they met, Lu Chuanxiong said urgently: "The eldest young master, Jiang Sen and Wang Debiao are back." Mu Yaping asked: "When did they arrive and where are they now?" Chen Zhanshan said: "They arrived in the middle of the night and are sleeping now." Mu Yaping said angrily: "Why don't you notify me?" Lu Chuanxiong said stutteringly: "The eldest young master, I'm afraid of disturbing you to rest in the middle of the night."

Mu Yaping raised his legs and walked in without saying a word. The sleepy Jiang Sen and Wang Debiao were aroused, and Mu Yaping asked, "How is the deal? Is it done?" Seeing Mu Yaping's anxious look, Jiang Sen thought something had happened and said, "The deal was going well. You are having a problem, young master." Mu Yaping fell into his heart and said, "Talk about the transaction situation?"

Jiang Sen briefly stated: "The housekeeper of the royal palace we passed by quickly met King De. Old King De heard that there were quick guns, so he asked to buy them without hesitation. King De had a great appetite and asked to buy 15,000 rifles and an additional 5 million rounds of bullets. However, I made a decision without authorization, raising the price of each rifle to 350 yuan and bringing 100 rounds of bullets. In addition, the price of bullets was 25 yuan and 100 rounds of bullets. The eldest young master didn't know if I did it right."

Mu Yaping was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "You did it right, but why are you back so late?" Wang Debiao took it over and said, "Old King De is hard to refuse, there is no way for us to stand in the De Palace for a few days. To be honest, King De is more anxious than us. He sent the housekeeper and a subordinate to the capital to check weapons and ammunition."

Mu Yaping asked again: "Where are the Mongols?" Jiang Sen said: "The Mongols were placed in the inn." Mu Yaping immediately ordered Wang Debiao to go to the inn and would accompany the Mongols. Then he led Chen Zhanshan and Jiang Sen quickly rushed to the Central Bank. After obtaining Hou Degui's approval, he called Director Hu and asked him to notify the German arms dealer.

Soon Director Hu called to inform that the German arms dealer asked to meet at the German embassy in Dongjiaomin Lane. Mu Yaping quickly judged that Bowerman placed the arms in the German embassy. He guessed that the German arms dealer was not simple, and there was a shadow of the German government behind it. This was better, and perhaps the security factor of arms transactions was greater.

Mu Yaping and others rushed to the German embassy. Director Hu and arms dealer Ballman had already arrived in advance. In a room in the embassy, ​​an embassy military officer accompanied him. After a brief greeting, the two sides quickly reached a consensus. Mu Yaping purchased 20,000 rifles with 100 bullets and an additional 5 million bullets.

After bargaining between the two sides, Bowerman finally sold 170 yuan per rifle, and the bullets were sold at 20 yuan per 100 rounds. Then, under the leadership of the military officer, they entered the basement of the embassy to check the weapons and ammunition. After confirming, Hou Degui accompanied the martial arts hall. Hou Degui called himself and asked the bank to transfer the payment to the bank account designated by the Germans.

Ballman accompanied Mu Yaping to continue inspecting the goods. After a while, Hou Degui and the military officer returned to the basement. Hou Degui and Director Hu secretly asked Mu Yaping what price the Mongolians should buy rifle bullets. Mu Yaping replied: "The Mongolians have sent people to inspect the goods. The price we agreed on is 210 oceans per rifle and 25 oceans altitude." Mu Yaping naturally couldn't tell the truth.

Director Hu and Hou Degui thought of the difference of 40 yuan and quickly calculated how much they deserved, and a smile suddenly appeared on their faces. The two looked at Mu Yaping's calm face and thought at the same time that this kid was young and had such courage. In an instant, they had enough trust in Mu Yaping.

Mu Yaping fiddled with the new rifle for a while, and couldn't help but admire the German manufacturing level, which was not just a false reputation. Mu Yaping joined the army and fired live ammunition during three months of recruit training, so he was no stranger to guns. Seeing him skillfully fiddling with rifles, the most surprising person was Hou Degui. He couldn't figure out when the eldest young master had played with guns.

Mu Yaping had almost finished checking and was preparing to carry it. He found that there were several boxes in the corner of the wall, which were obviously different from other boxes. He went up to look carefully. The boxes were square and full of German. Seeing Mu Yaping curious, Ballman stepped forward and explained: "There are German-made 12-shot shell guns, which you Chinese call them box guns. This is the one left in the last business, with a total of 50. Why is Mr. Mu also interested in pistols?"

Mu Yaping said: "Mr. Ballman, can you open it and take a look?" Ballman said: "No problem." As the box lid was opened, Lan Yingying and Zeng Mingwaliang's muffle gun appeared. Mu Yaping took out one and looked closely but couldn't fiddle with it. Jiang Sen took it over and opened the head skillfully. As the trigger was pulled, the sound from the gun chamber was very crisp.

Mu Yaping decided to buy all the 50 shell guns and the remaining 10,000 rounds of bullets. The last price of Mu Yaping was sold for 120 yuan and guns and bullets. Mu Yaping was holding silver notes in his arms. Then Mu Yaping took out three shell guns on the spot and gave them to Chen Zhanshan, Jiang Sen and Wang Debiao. The three of them were happily dancing and loved each other with guns.

Bowerman said: "Mr. Mu, we should raise our glasses to celebrate. Unfortunately, we don't have wine glasses. This arms transaction, Mr. Mu is a trustworthy person. I will return to China tomorrow. I will introduce you to a client. If you need arms and other things in the future, you can directly find my client." Then Bowerman introduced the military officer of the embassy to Mu Yaping.

There were two trucks in the embassy. After Bowerman left, the military officer of the embassy was very enthusiastic and personally directed the truck transport. During this period, Director Hu and Hou Degui also returned with satisfaction. A few hours later, the weapons and ammunition were transferred to the Zhongyi Martial Arts Hall. Seeing so many weapons and ammunition, Mu Heping was a little scared. Could it be that the eldest brother was going to rebel? But when he saw the eldest brother's cheerful look, he didn't dare to ask, and he was confused.

That night, the Mongolians were invited to the Zhongyi Martial Arts Hall, and then checked the rifle and bullets. The housekeeper of the Dewang Mansion felt very satisfied and said: "Mr. Mu, the rifle bullets have been checked. We will rush back immediately. Let's discuss the location of the transaction. In addition, the Dewang asked me to tell you that the silver dollar may not be enough, so we settle it with gold."

Mu Yaping said: "I can provide an accurate location for the trading location. As for the silver dollar of Dewang that is not enough to be settled in gold, there is no problem. My request is very simple. After we agree on the trading location, we should not change it easily." Dewang's housekeeper swore that the Mongolians are the most honest and they promised Changshengtian that they will never break their promises.

That night, the two sides agreed on the transaction location, and the Mongolians quickly returned to report the news. Mu Yaping ordered Wang Debiao to return to Mudan Peak and take the brothers on the mountain down the mountain to serve as escort weapons and ammunition. With Chen Zhanshan's consent, Wang Debiao quickly returned to Mudan Peak that night. As for how he went down the mountain, we will not say for now.

The next day, Mu Yaping came to Rongbaozhai and asked Tong Baosheng to hire 10 carriages at the Beijing Car Store in an orderly manner. Tong Baosheng didn't know what the eldest young master hired for a carriage. He asked tentatively: "Master Tong, you have spent thousands of oceans a few days ago. In the blink of an eye, you spent more than 10,000 oceans. I want to know what you are doing." Mu Yaping said: "Master Tong, you know a lot about me, and there is no benefit. I promise you that I will make up for all the money-losing silver dollars by the end of the year. Since I said it, I will not break my promise. Don't worry, I will let you explain to the master."

When Tong Baosheng saw Mu Yaping being really angry, he hurriedly said, "Master, I, Tong Baosheng, are not pretentious. No matter what, I am a servant. I have no choice between the master and you. Please understand me." Mu Yaping said, "Master Tong, I have nothing to say about your sincerity to the master. But now I manage Rongbaozhai. How much Rongbaozhai owe can only be seen until the end of the year. I hope Master Tong will give me a chance. If I don't have any results at the end of the year, you will tell the master to ask me. What if I kill or cut it at that time, I will listen to the emperor?"

Tong Baosheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, this is what you said. By the end of the year, I promise not to tell the master that I will help you well during this period. I hope the master will take care of himself." Mu Yaping knew that Tong Baosheng was very worried about what he did and he had no malice.

On the third day, Mu Yaping led a convoy out of the capital, headed to the arms trading location, and began an unusual trip.
