Wang Yongtai originally wanted to hit the fourth brother, but when he thought that he had become a gentleman because his life was too good, he became the most wasteful one when his family was in trouble, and he was powerless to watch his family persecuted to death. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 If it weren't for the eleven years of hardship, he would not have achieved his current achievements, so he no longer stopped Wang Yongan from doing business. He even gave Wang Yongan an an extra 2,000 taels of silver, totaling 5,000 taels of silver before and after, and let him go to S Sea to see what opportunities there were.

Although Wang Yongan is not short of money, he naturally thinks that the more money the better, and he has not yet figured out how to explain the 300,000 yen in his hand to Wang Yongtai, so he pondered for a while and said in a low voice: "Second brother, I plan to buy more weapons so that I can serve as a nursing home for our family and protect our family." ”

"How many?" Wang Yongtai said with a smile.

"Let's see." Wang Yongan said uncertainly.

Wang Yongtai thought for a while and said: "Fourth brother, there is one more thing to tell you, foreigners will not sell you guns casually, the better the guns, the more foreigners will not sell them." Only if I give you an official disc in the name of the 24th Mixed Association of the Beiyang New Army, will the foreigners be willing to sell it to you. If you buy two or three, I can write a note, but if you buy too much, you need me to issue an official disc in the name of the New Army Procurement Office. ”

"This ......" Wang Yongan thought about it, his future bodyguard team would definitely need twenty or thirty people, which was a large number, so he begged him to issue an official disc for the purchase of guns.

Wang Yongtai was ready in a few days, and specially returned home from the camp, handed over the official disc of the new army procurement to Wang Yongan, and instructed: "Fourth brother, except for the purchase quantity on the official disc that you must fill in by yourself, the rest has been written. ”

Wang Yongan was moved and asked, "Second brother, I bought a gun to protect myself, do you need to report it to the magistrate of the fifth town?" ”

Wang Yongtai shook his head and said: "What I issued to you is an officer to buy weapons and official plates, according to the rules of the Beiyang Army, the general can have private soldiers and horses to protect by his side, if he has more money, he can raise as many private soldiers as he wants." You can go with confidence, as long as nothing goes wrong. ”

Wang Yongan hugged his fists and said: "Thank you, second brother, my younger brother will definitely live up to my mission when I go to S Sea this time." ”

"Fart! It was as if I had asked you to buy a gun, and if it weren't for the fact that there might be chaos in the city these days, how could I have asked you to buy this dangerous object. Wang Yongtai blew his beard and glared, "When you come back, you will take care of yourself, in this way, I have invited a matchmaker, and when you come back from S Hai, you will get married immediately." Wang Yongan was dumbfounded, Wang Yongtai did not allow him to refute, and said: "If you don't agree, don't go to S Sea, there are many revolutionary parties there, if people know that you are my Wang Yongtai's younger brother, I have to arrest you." ”

"Okay, I agree, even if it's a sale." Wang Yongan hung his head and said.

Wang Yongtai laughed, and he didn't worry about his younger brother going to S Sea, so he ordered a clever subordinate Ma Ben Li Yao and another honest subordinate officer Gong Wuyuan to follow Wang Yongan.

Among these two people, Gong Wuyuan is not small, this person is a native of SDQH County, is Wang Yongtai's junior two junior disciples in the Jinmen Martial Arts Academy, this gentleman was born poor, study hard, but there is only one shortcoming - stammering, and he learned the artillery major, after graduation, how can the army be willing to accept the stammering general, so he has been following Wang Yongtai as an adjutant.

That Li Yao is a clever ghost, a native of Jinmen, a mouthful of Jinmen words like a spring, when he was a child, he made a big teapot in a brothel in Jinmen to serve the rich, and he was very handsome, and the kiln sisters were very happy, but they were unexpectedly caught by Cao Kun's younger brother Cao Rui. Although Li Yao was flamboyant, he didn't want to be a rabbit, so he fled in a panic. At this time, Cao Rui pretended to pass on the holy decree and asked Cao Kun's subordinate officer Wang Yongtai to lead troops to arrest people.

Wang Yongtai was not stupid, and immediately guessed that it must be Cao Rui who stole Cao Kun's official seal and falsely passed the military order, but he couldn't offend Cao Rui, as the saying goes, the king of Hades is better than a little devil is unstoppable, if he offends this cautious person, he will wear his own small shoes in the future, so he personally led a team of people to search for Li Yao.

After searching for a few days, there was no news, Cao Rui reprimanded Wang Yongtai, Wang Yongtai was furious in his heart, and said that if it weren't for you being Cao Kun's younger brother, I would have killed you alive a long time ago.

Unfortunately, Li Yao also bumped into Wang Yongtai directly, Wang Yongtai was angry with Cao Rui in his heart, so he had the intention to let Li Yao go, so he took out a gun and pointed it at his head and said, "Give me a reason not to kill you." ”

Li Yao closed his eyes at that time and said: "In this life, the villain will only be loyal to you, the general, if you let me die, I will die immediately." ”

Wang Yongtai threw the pistol to him at that time and asked him to shoot himself, Li Yao was very single, picked up the pistol and shot himself in the head, only to find that there was no bullet in it, and he has been following Wang Yongtai since then.

These two people have much more experience than Wang Yongan, and Li Yao said at the time: "Young master, although this silver ticket is good, it won't work in S Sea, so it's better to exchange it for yen or American money." ”

Wang Yongan had a few hundred yen on him, all of which he earned by working at RB, and when he came back, he hadn't spent it yet, so he thought it would be convenient and exchanged the silver for yen. After deciding, the three of them took a boat along the Beijing-Hangzhou Universiade HN, and crossed Yangzhou is Zhenjiang, at this time the Shanghai-Nanjing railway has been opened, and it takes 12 hours to walk from Nanjing to the S Sea.

However, at this time, the Chinese people were still very ignorant, including the officials of the Qing government, who did not dare to let the train run at night, so the train was a single number (lunar single number, non-Western calendar single number) sent from Nanjing to S Sea, and the double number was sent back to Nanjing from S Sea, with a daily train, departing at six o'clock in the morning and arriving at the station at about six o'clock in the evening.

From Nanjing to Zhenjiang is half past nine in the morning, the three of them came to Zhenjiang Railway Station, only to see the people carrying chickens and ducks, carrying flat poles, holding babies, and some people holding piglets and shouting: "Let one let, let one let mile ......"

"This ......" Wang Yongan was a little dumbfounded, he took a boat when he returned to Yangzhou from the S Sea, this time he wanted to take a fresh ride on the legendary Daqing Shanghai-Nanjing Railway, okay, this day a one-way train is comparable to the Spring Festival every day.

Li Yao immediately said: "Fourth master, why don't we buy a VIP ticket, we will buy a standing ticket." ”

Wang Yongan said: "Can you still buy a train ticket at this time?" ”

"Look at what you said, there will always be some empty seats on this train for people of your status." Li Yaodao.

Wang Yongan sighed, thinking of the China Railway in later generations, every time he went back to his hometown, he would always see the soft sleeper empty, even during the Spring Festival, more than a dozen beds would be vacated, specially prepared for those high-ranking officials and nobles, it doesn't matter if the railway makes money or not, it doesn't matter if it serves the people or not, it doesn't matter if you serve the official well.

"You go buy it, since you have bought it, don't care about the two melons and dates, the three VIP seats." Wang Yongan said.

"Thank you, Fourth Master." Li Yao gave up his hand, ran to the train station quickly, and said a few words in the stationmaster's room, the stationmaster hurriedly ran out, came to Wang Yongan's side, handed over the train ticket, and said: "It's the fourth young master from Yangzhou who is here, you see that my small station is shining, and this seat is specially prepared for you." ”

"Thank you, stationmaster." Wang Yongan said.

When the train arrived at Zhenjiang Station, the stationmaster immediately asked the sentry at the railway station to escort Wang Yongan and his party on the train, and drove away some of the unsightly, nodded and said If there is any trouble next time, you can say directly, our official can't help much. Wang Yongan also smiled and said Trouble the stationmaster, if you have anything in the future, you can come to me.

"Humph! What a great official authority! ”
