Chapter 67: Tang Dao
In terms of venues, Li Cheng has more here, a shooting range, at most one acre is enough, and it also comes with all the firearms you can experience, which is a good thing for Li Cheng, but as a Chinese from China, Li Cheng feels a little apprehensive to let strangers come to the door with a lot of lethal hot weapons.
"Well, old Peake, is Bata reliable? You know, I've always cared about the safety of the ranch, and if Bata enters the ranch with so many weapons on him, it's not that I don't trust you, but I'm very suspicious of the customers that Bata brought...... "The Grizzly Bear Ranch will be patrolled by Noah and Banjie in shifts every day, and in addition to preventing wild beasts from attacking the grazing foals, the main thing is to ensure that no illegal intruders arrive.
"Cheng, don't worry, Bata and I have been friends for decades, he will not bring unidentified people into the ranch, they are all gun lovers with gun licenses, the file is clear, there is no criminal record, and the proportion of gun crimes in Canada is still very low, most of them will not take AK47 to rush into other people's homes and sweep the ......" The average Canadian has a strong sense of law, and under the constraints of rules and regulations, there are very few cases of illegal gun crimes. Firearms are used in a stealthy environment and do not pose a threat to anyone.
Li Cheng thought about the dazzling array of firearms in Bata's shop, nodded, and determined that Bata could shoot on an acre of land near the national park, provided that it did not affect the normal operation of the grizzly bear ranch, which was still far away, and it was the extreme west of the ranch, and if she was grazing, she would not come here, so it would not have any effect on the foal.
"Okay, I'll inform Bata of the good news, you don't have to worry about the cost, I'll fight for you."
"Come on, this rent is not enough for me to stuff my teeth, just collect some from him symbolically, and give it all to you." Li Chengke can't look down on these hundreds of dollars, it's not enough for him to feed a foal, and to please the relationship with the owner of the weapon shop, what kind of gun will he play with in the future?
Without collecting Bata's rent, there would be no contract signed with him, and without legal effect, Li Cheng could expel Bata and the others at any time, and as long as it affected the ranch, this verbal agreement would definitely be terminated.
After the elder Peake left, Li Cheng began a busy day again, until in the afternoon, a pickup truck drove into the grizzly bear ranch, and a white man in his fifties, led by a white man in his thirties with a full beard, came to Li Cheng's residence.
"Hey, Cheng, I haven't seen you for a long time, my store has recently entered a batch of Barrett, and the accessories are similar to those of the military, so you can try it when you have time." Barrett's price is so expensive that ordinary people can't afford it at all, and it's all for high-level gun fans.
This is Bata, the owner of the weapons shop in the town of Kananaskis, who has been in the town for decades and is familiar with the cowboys in the nearby ranches, after all, the cowboys need to buy shotguns from the weapons shop in order to protect the safety of the ranch or hunting.
"Mr. Bata, who is this?"
"Oh, look at me, I forgot to introduce it, this is Mr. Mars, the former sergeant major of the French Foreign Legion, who used to be stationed in the Sahara Desert of Africa to train volunteers, and after retiring, he is still obsessed with firearms, but he is hindered by ...... You know, it's hard to find a suitable venue for non-restricted and forbidden weapons these days. Bata shrugged his shoulders and said, Mars should be German-Canadian, who joined the French Foreign Legion in his early years, a mysterious and romantic unit, and now he is retired and has a comfortable life, but he is still very fascinated by guns, suffering from the lack of a good shooting range, fully automatic firearms have not been used for a long time, and I don't know if they are rusty.
In addition to the beard of the Peugeot surname, Mars is still very burly, although he retired, he did not slack off, and every day he fixed his surname to run 5 kilometers in the morning and do 200 push-ups......
Mars, who was close to 2 meters, looked down at Li Cheng like a brown bear, and his eagle-like eyes seemed to see through him, but Li Cheng did not show any timidity, and looked directly at Mars, who was like a rainbow, and the two confronted each other for a long time.
Mars took the initiative to come over, stretched out his hand and said, "Cheng, you are the first Asian man who can confront each other for 5 minutes, I am really surprised, have you also participated in the Foreign Legion or served in some unit?" As a sergeant major of the French Foreign Legion, Mars has fought against special forces from various countries, and there are many Asian special forces, especially those in South Asia, who are all cowards and are not opponents at all, so he looks down on Asian soldiers.
Li Cheng was neither humble nor arrogant, shook hands with Mars, this veteran ruffian had not given up, and wrestled directly with Li Cheng, but Li Cheng, whose face was red from Mars, gritted his teeth and persevered, until Mars couldn't hold it back, shook his pig's liver-colored palm, cried and laughed, squatted down and looked uncomfortable, the scene suddenly changed, Bata looked surprised, and old Peake was very calm, as if he knew that Li Cheng was not a vegetarian.
Looking down at Mars who was crouching down, Li Cheng was also surprised by his strength, and secretly rejoiced: "If my brother didn't have Long Wei, he would have been torn apart by this bear a long time ago." "Mars estimates that he has lived in the military for a long time, and the way to make friends is more direct, no matter what the identity of the other party is, first try brute force, and show no mercy, this kid is from a barbarian?
Mars suffered defeat for the first time, and he squatted in the ground for a long time, waiting for the bruise on his palm to heal a bit, before he stood up and pulled out a Swiss Army knife that he had carried with him.
Bata thought that Mars's old temper had been committed again, so he hurriedly stopped Mars and said, "Cheng, I'm sorry, Mars is not usually like this......"
Mars pushed Bata away, only to see him pick up the foldable Swiss Army knife, hand it to Li Cheng, and said: "Cheng, I, Mars has never admired anyone in my life, you are the first!" This saber is something I have always carried with me since I joined the Foreign Legion, and I am giving it to you today. ”
This Swiss Army Knife is a foldable and versatile knife, which is more practical than the Damascus Sabre, and is a must-have for survivors in the wild, and it seems that this saber is also specially customized, and it is difficult to buy the same style.
Li Cheng took the Swiss Army knife, didn't say much, but walked straight to the villa, and took out a big guy, a beautiful and unusual long gift box, on which was written the Chinese characters of dragon flying and phoenix dancing - Longquan Tang knife.
"Your Excellency Mars, we Chinese have always believed in 'courtesy exchanges,' and this is my gift to you." Although Li Cheng did not have a very good impression of Mars who made friends by violent means when they first met, he felt that he was very affectionate, spoke directly, acted decisively, and did not drag his feet, which still met Li Cheng's appetite, not to mention that he came from the French Foreign Legion, for Li Cheng, he had admired this mysterious army very much before.
Because it has appeared in many novels, film and television works, Mars is a sergeant major, a senior non-commissioned officer level, and it is estimated that it may be a first-class sergeant major?
Mars opened the gift box and found that it was a long knife, and after pulling it out, the cold Tang knife was presented in front of everyone, Mars exclaimed and praised: "Good knife!" Good knives! ”
Li Cheng also thought that Mars would say: "What a ...... of this knife" I didn't expect him to be quite shrewd, not knowing how to pretend to understand, although it is somewhat the same as this knife, but there are still some similarities and differences in the production process and shape, the most important thing is that the decoration is completely different from the knife.
"What kind of knife is this?" Bata was also extremely curious.
"China's Tang Dao!" According to the ranking of the world's top ten knives, the Kara sword ranks third, and it is easy to confuse with the second ranked Samurai samurai sword in the world.
In addition to the fact that the traditional production process of Tang knives is gradually lost and cannot reach the level of ancient times, it is also related to many foreign movies, and the frequency of the appearance of the samurai sword is too high, more than the Damascus knife in the first place, and what about the Tang knife? Domestic films are rarely mentioned, not to mention foreign, publicity and production technology and many other aspects, resulting in the Tang knife gradually not known to the world, this time Li Cheng engaged in a few Tang knives, which were customized in China a few months ago, because the handicraft appraisal documents were presented, so they were able to pass the customs smoothly and mailed to Canada, and it was not long before Li Cheng had time to give it to Noah, and he was taken by the former sergeant major of the French Foreign Legion.
