Breakfast was delayed for a long time, and when Sun Wei arrived at the patrol room, he naturally exceeded the time stipulated for work, but no one in the entire central patrol room cared about this, let alone stood up and blamed.

"Detective, where are we going today?" As soon as he entered the office, the detective surnamed Huang appeared in front of Sun Wei.

"Go and get busy with your business today, I have something to do." Yesterday he visited his various properties in the concession, and Sun Wei plans to go to Pudong today to have a look, which is the base camp of Sun Li's armed forces, but it is not well known to the outside world.

Sun Wei actually didn't know the specific location of Sun Li's armed force, but fortunately, the bodyguard who followed him was one of them and could take him to the exact location.

There is no bridge from Shanghai to Pudong, the only means of transportation to cross the Huangpu River is the ferry, and the reason why Pudong is listed separately from Shanghai is that the current Pudong can not be called Shanghai, it is the place of Shanghai County, Nanhui County, Chuansha Fumin Hall, the smallest of which is Shanghai County, only a small one along the middle and upper reaches of the Huangpu River.

Sun Wei's armed forces were stationed in the territory of the Chuansha Fumin Hall, which was a scattered hall set up in the 15th year of Jiaqing in the Qing Dynasty, and the whole hall was a little larger than Shanghai County in terms of area, but the population of the whole hall was less than one-tenth of the public concession, and it was very desolate compared with Shanghai County.

On the territory of the Chuansha Fumin Hall, Sun Wei's biggest business is the sale of German arms, including the 1888 commission rifle, the 1889 Mauser rifle, the 1891 Mauser rifle, the 1892 Mauser rifle, the 1894 Mauser rifle and the 1898 Mauser rifle, etc., of which the 1898 Mauser rifle is the most advanced individual rifle sold by Sun Wei, and it is the standard weapon currently equipped in Germany.

In fact, the design and production of the 1898 Mauser rifle is divided into two stages, the rifles produced before 1905 are all using round-nosed bullets, and after 1905, Germany developed pointed-head bullets, whose trajectory is straighter, so the use of round-nosed bullet rifles that have been equipped with troops can only have two ways out, one is to modify the barrel to be suitable for pointed bullets, and the other is to directly eliminate, and the batch of G98 sold by Sun Wei is the batch that was eliminated.

Although Sun Wei's predecessor was not very good, he treated his brothers quite well, especially this elite who bled hard for him, each of them was much higher than the ordinary workers in Shanghai, which also caused this team of more than 100 people to basically start a family, and some even had the next generation, these people lived on the side of the warehouse, forming an artificial village.

"Captain, the boss is here!" The team members guarding the door soon saw Sun Wei who was walking towards them, and hurriedly entered the warehouse compound to report the news.

"Master!" "Boss!"

The team members in the warehouse moved quickly, and when Sun Wei just walked to the door of the warehouse, they walked out under the leadership of Sun Li to greet them, but although their actions were fast, they were not neat, and they were much different from the disciplined forces that Sun Wei imagined.

"I'm just here to see you today, you don't have to greet me, you can all go and get busy." Sun Wei responded to everyone.

When the team members heard Sun Wei's order, they all returned to the courtyard of the warehouse, and only after losing the obstruction of these walls did Sun Wei really see the scene in the courtyard.

The yard of the warehouse is very large, almost half a football field, and there are more than a dozen weapon racks on the field, and most of the shelves are cold weapons with swords, guns, swords, and halberds.

"Is this how everyone usually trains?" Before Sun Wei came, he was full of longing for his legendary armed team, thinking that his predecessor had left him a capital to rely on, but when he really saw the actual situation of this armed force, he found that this armed force was very different from what he imagined, which also made him quite disappointed.

"Master, isn't this what you set before?" Sun Li asked in surprise.

"I set it? What do you think I used to do? Sun Wei wanted to know the true situation of this team, and he couldn't hide his ignorance.

Although Sun Li was full of curiosity about the master's abnormality, he didn't dare to ask, but explained: "Master, you said before that although we didn't set up a door number, it can be regarded as a dart game, and there must always be martial arts when escorting darts, so let the brothers below train foreign guns on the fifteenth day of the first month, and practice martial arts every double. ”

"Oh, I see, let's go to the warehouse and have a look." Sun Wei didn't expect that such a training plan was formulated by his far-sighted predecessor, which may be the limitation of the times.

"Okay master, you come with me." When Sun Li heard this, he led Sun Wei into the warehouse door.

The design of the warehouse is a standard masonry structure, except for the extremely wide space for the entrance, the rest of the place is divided into one small room after another by the internal wall made of masonry, there are almost 20 rooms, these independent rooms are equipped with heavy iron doors and huge iron locks, and its defense measures are still very in place.

Sun Wei scanned the situation of the entire warehouse with his eyes, and then asked Sun Li, "What goods are in the warehouse now?" ”

"Now the warehouse stores the most tobacco, foreign cloth, sugar, foreign guns, these four kinds, of which there are 2,320 quintals of tobacco, all of which are fine cloud soil, 20,000 foreign cloth imported from Citigroup, 6,000 quintals of sugar imported from Nanyang, a total of 350 foreign guns of various types, a total of 122,000 rounds of ammunition, and a small amount of soap and other daily groceries in the warehouse." Sun Li may have been in the warehouse for a long time, and many goods can be remembered clearly without looking at the bill.

"Let's go, go in and have a look." Sun Wei came to Pudong to inspect, on the one hand, to inspect, and on the other hand, to satisfy his curiosity, especially the firearms.

The first to open is the compartment near the door, the compartment space is about 100 square meters, but they are all filled with rows of wooden boxes, the highest wooden boxes are placed to the roof of the warehouse, but several boxes near the door are placed separately, it is estimated that the goods on it have been taken away by the buyer.

"What's in there?" There was no sign outside the wooden box, so Sun Wei had to ask Sun Li, who was following behind.

"Master Hui, it's tobacco soil, there are a total of six hundred and twenty-seven quintals in it." Sun Li replied.

"Oh, open it and take a look." To be honest, Sun Wei really hadn't seen what the smoke looked like when he was so big, so he instructed the people behind him out of curiosity.

"Yes, boss." The team member on duty did not ask Sun Li's opinion, and after hearing Sun Wei's order, he took out an iron pry from the corner of the compartment and directly pried open the lid of the wooden box.

What appeared in the wooden box was not the kind of crow ball that Sun Wei saw in the history books of later generations, but was wrapped in oil paper in the form of a block and neatly stacked in the wooden box, and the oil paper was printed with the head of an old man, which is estimated to be the trademark of tobacco, and it seems that the seller of tobacco is also very modern.

Sun Wei stepped forward, took out a cigarette brick from the box and put it on his nose and asked, there was no fragrance as others said, but there was a faint smell of urine, and then he pointed to the head on the oil paper and asked: "Who is this old man, is he the boss who sells tobacco soil?" ”

"I heard that it was Lin Zexu, who is said to be a big official of the imperial court, as for why it is printed on it, I don't know." Sun Li replied.

"Lin Zexu!?" Sun Wei exclaimed in an incredible tone.

"Master, do you know this official?" Sun Li didn't expect Sun Wei to react so much, so he asked.

"I've just heard that it was a big official in the Daoguang period, and he once served as the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou." Sun Wei replied casually while observing the humble head printed in ink.

"The governor of Yungui is really a big official, it is estimated that he did a lot of good things for the people when he was in Yungui, otherwise the people of Yunnan would not have printed his head on this tobacco soil." Sun Li said with a little understanding.

"Hehe, he did a lot of good things, but not in Yunnan, but in Guangzhou, he was appointed as the minister of the Qincha, specifically responsible for going to Liangguang to ban smoking, which led to the first opium war." Sun Wei couldn't help but laugh as he spoke.

The packaging of tobacco soil is actually printed with the head of Lin Zexu, who is famous for selling tobacco in Humen, and regards a person who advocates smoking as a symbol of tobacco soil, which is really funny in the world, and Sun Wei can only say that they Yunnan people really know how to play.

"The First Opium War, what kind of war is this, are we fighting with foreigners?" Sun Li thought about it, and finally didn't think of which war Sun Wei was talking about.

"It's terrible to have no culture, the first war of the opium was naturally fought with the British, but we lost, not only let the imperial court cut Hong Kong Island, but also lost a lot of money, even our Shanghai was forced to be set up as a treaty port at that time." Sun Wei was defeated by Sun Li's ignorance and patiently explained.

"Ah, isn't that the treaty signed during the Battle of the Southeast in the Daoguang period, master, how do you say that it was signed during the Raven War, is it that the storyteller is lying to me?" After listening to Sun Wei's explanation, Sun Li became even more confused.

"Huh?" Sun Wei was immediately embarrassed when he heard this, although he had not heard of the name of the Battle of the Southeast, but according to Sun Li's explanation, even if he thought about it with his knees, he knew that the Battle of the Southeast must be the first war in his mouth, one is the current name, and the other is the name given in the history books of later generations.

At this time, Sun Wei did not hesitate to speculate with the worst malice that the benevolent brother who compiled the history book was estimated to be half-witted, and he couldn't find the official name of the war, so he gave a name that could be recycled, so there was the second opium war, which would really save trouble, but now he is going to make a fool of himself.
