Are We Even Going to Live Like This?!
Li Yao felt a little melancholy...
Ever since he sent Jiang Zhiying to Lin Xiaowei, this guy hasn't contacted him for three days. What a treacherous bastard who forgets his duty for lust!
The dog went missing on the third day.
I miss her.
However, Lin Xiaowei forgot him, but he couldn't forget about Lin Xiaowei.
I, Boss Li, am particular! The day after Jiang Zhiying left, Li Yao took out the contact information given to him by Big Sis Feng Li and dialed the number to contact Hua Ge.
original,
Li Yao thought Hua Ge would be a tough guy, but after actually answering the phone, Li Yao realized he had misunderstood.
Surprisingly, Hua Ge's demeanor was quite refined, and his deep, magnetic voice was rather charming. He explained his request to the other party, mentioning that Big Sis Feng Li had introduced him. Hua Ge then said that this matter was difficult to handle and that he needed to inquire before giving an answer.
He didn't make any grand promises or say he could definitely handle it.
But that's precisely why people find it so reliable.
Today was the day Hua Ge would reply to him. Li Yao sat in front of the fireplace, studying magic knowledge while waiting for Hua Ge's reply.
The temperature in the provincial capital suddenly dropped these past two days, and late autumn suddenly felt like early winter.
However, it's still a bit unrealistic to expect snow to fall in the provincial capital.
In contrast, many places in Su Bei experienced light rain mixed with snow, and further north, the snow had already blanketed the area.
The poem "Snow Between the Brows" states:
In early winter, several jugs of aged wine were buried in the courtyard, hoping to share a drink with you upon your return.
The First Snow in the provincial capital was long overdue, while the north was already blanketed in heavy snow... This was the first year since Lin Xiaowei left, and there would be many more winters like this to endure. There wasn't enough room under the Osmanthus Tree in front of the door to bury so many jars of wine.
Then let's just keep those few jars.
Anyway, there weren't many people drinking, just a handful.
In the afternoon, Li Yao finally received a call from Hua Ge: "Hello Mr. Li, I've made contact with the channels. Would it be convenient for you to meet in person?"
Li Yao: "That's convenient. There's Lost Tavern on Drum Tower Road. I'll wait for you there."
Hua Ge: "Okay, see you later."
Li Yao put down his phone and glanced at the bar. He saw that Chen Xi was busy and the big guy Wei Dadong was clumsily mixing drinks. Li Yao thought he should give this guy a chance to show off, so he said to Wei Dadong, "Da Dong, I have some guests coming in a bit. Can you help me mix some drinks?"
Wei Dadong nodded solemnly. "You can rest assured that I'll handle things!"
Not long after,
A man carrying a briefcase, dressed in a suit and tie, with his hair slicked back, walked into the tavern. He casually glanced around and immediately spotted Li Yao standing in front of the fireplace.
There's no way around it; the spot in front of the fireplace on the first floor is the most unique, making it hard to go unnoticed.
Hua Ge approached Li Yao and asked softly, "Mr. Li?"
Li Yao stood up and said, "Hua Ge, please sit down, Da Dong."
Wei Dadong quickly carried a tray to the fireplace and placed two glasses of wine on it.
Hua Ge was attracted by Wei Dadong's strong and muscular physique and couldn't help but take a few more glances at him. After Wei Dadong left, Hua Ge looked away and said, "Boss Li is a capable man. This tavern is truly full of hidden talents."
He picked up the glass and took a sip. The moment the wine touched his lips, Hua Ge's face changed! Had the hell been he poisoned?! But then he thought again, it couldn't be that bad!
There's no reason for the person introduced by Big Sis Feng Li to harm her!
Hua Ge gritted his teeth and swallowed. As the liquor entered his throat, slid down his esophagus, and into his stomach, the burning sensation of the strong liquor spread like a fire, making his whole body feel hot.
He loosened his tie and chuckled awkwardly, "This liquor is pretty strong."
Seeing how much Hua Ge was suffering from the drink, Li Yao calmly put down his cup and glanced at Wei Dadong.
Wei Dadong assumed this was Boss Li praising him, and immediately nodded heavily and firmly, his eyes seeming to say:
You are welcome,
It's all as it should be! Li Yao: "..."
He looked at Hua Ge again and changed the subject, saying, "Is your surname Hua? Judging from your name, I thought you were a gangster."
Hua Ge laughed, "My surname is Yu, and my name is Shouwen. The nickname Hua Ge actually came about in a rather interesting way... Um, could I have a glass of water?"
Damn, it burns my throat! Li Yao didn't dare let Wei Dadong get water, so he personally filled a cup and handed it to Hua Ge.
Hua Ge cleared his throat and continued, "I was quite mischievous in high school, loved to fight, and was pretty good at it. Back then, we would arrange fights near a bookstore behind the school. I would always arrive early, so I would read books in the bookstore when I had nothing to do. When the guys arrived, they would call out ' Yu Shouwen,' and I would put down my book, grab an iron rod, and rush out."
Huh? This character contrast is actually quite appealing!
Hua Ge fell into his memories, his tone becoming drawn out. "Later, there was a time when I cracked open the head of a rich kid, and my family had to pay a lot of money in compensation. My father even knelt down to apologize to him. After that, I suddenly realized: no matter how fierce or brutal you are in a fight, it's useless. In the end, it's something that can't be brought to the table. In this world, if you want to stand up and talk to people, you have to have some status, but thugs who fight don't have any status."
Since then,
Hua Ge stopped fighting and started studying seriously.
After failing his college entrance exam in his senior year, he studied desperately for another year. When the results came out, Hua Ge ranked third in the county.
So everyone called him the Tanhualang.
later,
The title "Tan Hua" became his nickname.
After graduating from university, he became a lawyer.
By chance, he began to get involved in some gray industries, and later got entangled with the supernatural side. He committed a crime and was arrested by the Wallfacers. After some maneuvering, Hua Ge became an outsider of the Wallfacer Organization.
After hearing this,
Li Yao thought Hua Ge was an interesting guy.
He pulled out a thermos from behind the sofa and took a sip—he should have known better than to show off and let that Wei Dadong mix the Tie Tou! What a mess he made! After moistening his throat, Li Yao said, "Hua Ge is awesome, how do I ask for what I want?"
Hua Ge said crisply, "These things are hard to come by in China, but I have a friend in North Russia who has contacted a seller. There are some abandoned military production lines for sale there, including an AK production line. As for the Mauser 98k, it's hard to get, but you also said that you don't have to force it, so I got you the blueprints. You can make it using the AK production line."
Li Yao: "The bullet production line?"
Hua Ge said, "Yes, that's the main point. The bullet production line includes gunpowder manufacturing, Cartridge Case case stamping, core pressing, tail pre-compression, sealing, and other steps, involving a variety of complex processes..."
Li Yao's heart skipped a beat. "Can't get it?"
Hua Ge: "No, you have to pay more."
Li Yao: "..."
Okay,
As long as we can get it, the money isn't a big deal, as long as it's not too outrageous.
So he asked, "How much?"
Hua Ge said, "The entire bullet production line costs 26 million RMB."
What the heck?!
Li Yao suddenly felt like he had been robbed!
He had done his homework. In 2014, China sold five rotor-type bullet assembly lines to Malaysia. Each machine could produce more than 40,000 rounds per shift, producing small-caliber 5.56mm bullets, which required relatively high precision.
Although the bullets produced by these devices are still significantly weaker than those produced by some developed countries in terms of both quality and production capacity.
But it's cheap!
The average cost per line is 2.8 million yuan.
The Russian-made bullet production line is indeed of good quality and has a decent production capacity, but even with inflation in recent years, it shouldn't cost 26 million, right? After all, it's an old production line!
Li Yao's face immediately darkened. "Why do I feel like this is robbing me?"
Boss Li is now rich.
But his money didn't come from thin air!
If you keep spending money like this on everything you do in the future, how are you supposed to live a normal life?!
Second update! You didn't expect that, did you? I'm still updating so late... Surprised? Excited?
I'm totally devastated tonight. The Qidian server crashed, and I'm experiencing writer's block. I've racked my brains trying to find information, and I've even lost a lot of hair...
Oh shit!
I'm so good-looking, I don't want to go bald young...
Fortunately, I did see some classmates coming from the pirated version to support it.
Thank you!
I also want to thank "Black Night Night" for the Rudder Master donation; I'll owe you one more chapter.
I hope you enjoy reading this, and I also hope you will support the official version on Qidian.
I, Teemo, am extremely grateful!
