"Guys! Since you have come to the Humble House, you can stay in peace and don't have any worries! Deng Zixuan said boldly. Chen Jintang said: "The last time Deng Gongzi helped, I could see that Gongzi was a chivalrous and courageous person, so I wouldn't be hypocritical." This time, I came to Deng Gongzi to avoid it for a while, and I left after the rumors! "Brother Chen, if you can afford to look down on the little brother, you can live in peace." Deng Zixuan was a little anxious.

Chen Jintang's square face flashed red and said, "Deng Gongzi, let me introduce you." This white-faced brother is nicknamed Divine Calculation Pei Gejin!" The white-faced man stood up and clasped his fists with both hands and said, "Childe! I was courteous under it! Deng Zixuan also stood up and hugged his fists and said, "Ashamed! ”

"This is called the cold-faced killer Bai Biao, the long-legged Wu Bao, the strong man Zhang Mancang, the flying knife hand Leng Yifei, the ghost clever Wan Chuan, and the thief Wang Xiaoer." Everyone stood up and said, "Thank you for your kindness!" ”haha！ It's all talent! Integrate my will! Deng Zixuan was overjoyed and said: "Heroes, today we have a good drink, happy and revenge!" But Brother Chen, I don't know what your reputation is? The crowd burst out laughing.

The white-faced Pei Gejin smiled and said, "Deng Gongzi, my eldest brother is called King Xiao, and he is the leader of our hussars!" "Childe, I'm ashamed to say it, I've fallen to such a point, this is the will of God, and the twisted army that swept through the north of the river has been annihilated by the sunset and the clouds." Speaking of the glory of the past, a gloomy expression appeared on everyone's faces. This kung fu Xiaohong served the wine and food. "Come on, come on, let's drink, as the saying goes, thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, feng shui turns in turn, maybe next year will be auspicious, and there will be hope for life." Deng Zixuan cheered everyone up.

"There is hope to be alive! That's great, let's get drunk! Chen Jintang shouted loudly. The brothers pushed the cups and changed the lamps, and after a while, Deng Zixuan became unconscious. When he woke up, it was already the time to hold the lamp, Deng Zixuan opened his eyes, and Xiaohong's concerned and anxious face appeared in front of him, "Madam, the young master has woken up!" The mother was worried: "Zixuan, where did this group of people come from?" Deng Zixuan sat up and rubbed his swollen eyes and lied: "Last year, the child went on an outing and met robbers, and it was this group of heroes who saved my life, so the child became friends with them!" ”

"I met a robber last year, and you didn't say anything when you went home?" The elder brother asked in surprise. "I'm afraid that my family will worry about me, and I'm also afraid that after you know about this, you won't let me go out anymore!" Deng Zixuan continued to lie. "Amitabha, since this group of heroes has saved Xuan'er, it is good to entertain people and not snub others." The mother turned and left. "Zixuan, have you thought about it, how much does your scholar spend? Now that we have added so many people, our family can't afford it! The eldest brother was obviously dissatisfied.

"Brother! I'm sorry for the trouble I caused you, I apologize for my brother, they don't live in vain in our house, and the people in the rivers and lakes are righteous and squander money, and they regard money as dung. The heroes gave me 200 taels of silver, and I will give it to you tomorrow! "I said brother, don't blame your brother for being hypocritical, I have no choice, I have to think about this family. Are you sure you will give me 200 taels of silver? Deng Zide immediately smiled when he heard this. Seeing his brother's undisguised style, Deng Zixuan shook his head helplessly.

"Since Pangu opened the world, the three emperors and five emperors have come to the present. We are the Chinese nation, the descendants of the Yellow Emperor. Antiquity······. A few days later, Deng Zixuan was explaining history to the children. Outside the window, Chen Jintang and Pei Gejin eavesdropped, and the two of them were obviously fascinated. I don't know how long it took, Deng Zixuan finished explaining, and Chen Jintang and Pei Gejin hurriedly left. The two of them came to a secluded place, Pei Gejin said, "Big brother! I found Deng Gongzi extraordinary! "What do you mean by that?" Chen Jintang was slightly surprised! "You see Deng Gongzi raised 20 teenage children, and these children are all surnamed Deng. He does not teach his children the Four Books and the Five Classics, but novelties, which means Weishenme?" You mean that Deng Gongzi has a backbone, how can this be that! ”

"In the past few days, I have observed that Deng Gongzi's personality and conversation are incompatible with scholars, Deng Gongzi's seal hall is full, his face is radiant, and he has the appearance of an emperor, this person is definitely not a thing in the pool." Pei Gejin analyzed. "Not bad! I also feel that Deng Gongzi is unusual. Especially when I said our identity, Deng Gongzi didn't seem to care and was very happy, it seems that Deng Gongzi is planning something? Chen Jintang muttered.

"Big brother! How to decide! Pei Gejin said. Chen Jintang pondered and said, "Go!" Go back and counsel with the brethren before deciding! After eating that night, Deng Zixuan walked into the ear room as usual. Before he could figure out what was going on, Chen Jintang took the lead and knelt on the ground and said, "Gongzi Deng, my brothers and I admire Gongzi's personality. In the past few days, we have eavesdropped on Childe's lectures, and Childe's profound knowledge has made us fall to the ground. We have decided to go to the son to serve the dogs and horses! Deng Zixuan was stunned when he heard this, and immediately said: "Everyone, please get up!" ”

"Ask Childe to agree!" Chen Jintang couldn't afford to be stubborn. "Good! I promise you! Seeing everyone standing up happily, Deng Zixuan looked at everyone, and said slowly with a grim face for a long time: "Those who achieve great things are in one life, not in one moment." Since you have chosen me, you must obey my will absolutely! "We regard Deng Gongzi as the head of the horse, and there is no second heart!" "In that case, I can only tell you to be patient and wait for the opportunity, don't ask, don't guess, don't act, once the time is right, I will tell you, can you do it?" "Obey Deng Gongzi!" Everyone spoke in unison.

"Bring the wine!" Chen Jintang picked up the wine jar and put it on the table, and Pei Gejin lined up the nine bowls in turn. I saw the flying knife hand Leng Yifei took out a sharp knife and handed it to Deng Zixuan. Soon, the blood of the nine people was mixed in the wine jar, and then Chen Jintang poured it all in turn. Deng Zixuan raised the wine bowl and said, "Nine is the largest number in one digit, and it is the will of God for the nine of us to get together." Today we are like-minded and blood-dissolving oath! "Like-minded, blood-dissolving oath!" Everyone spoke in unison. Deng Zixuan took the lead in drinking the wine, and everyone drank it in turn.

"Guys! There is nothing to do at the moment, you can follow my Deng family class for the time being, as for what to do in the future, let me have time to plan! "Obey Childe's arrangement!" The crowd spoke in unison. Deng Zixuan had to be careful, so he couldn't tell them about the jihua in his heart at will. It's not that they don't trust them, it's that they have a hard time accepting their ideas. These rebel fighters are used to revenge, they like to respond to all calls, vigorous, and earth-shattering! For a long time, Deng Zixuan had to reluctantly follow the tiger's den and seek perfection, so the process of transforming them was also part of the plan.

That night, Deng Zixuan had trouble sleeping. Fang Cai Xiaohong was entangled, and Deng Zixuan had no emotion. This kung fu Xiaohong had fallen asleep, Deng Zixuan quietly got up and came to the window, and opened the curtains casually. I saw a bright moon hanging high in the sky, and the afterglow penetrated through the window and sprinkled softly. Deng Zixuan stared at the bright moon, and his mind began to churn again.

Throughout the world, it has now entered the era of hot weapons, but the Qing Dynasty has just woken up, and the Manchu Dynasty is worried that once modern firearms are popularized, the safety of the dynasty will be extremely dangerous, so the imperial court has extremely strict control over foreign guns, which is very beneficial to itself. If you want to pull the flag and rebel, you must equip a quasi-modern army, otherwise it will not be a success at all, and if you want to build a modern army, you must have your own weapons.

Relying on buying foreigners' weapons is pure nonsense, because foreigners will cut off your source of weapons at any time. Weapons must be self-reliant, but manufacturing weapons does not happen overnight, provided that you have manufacturing machines and jishu, and you must have the right steel and related raw materials. And with these conditions, you must have money, and it is a lot of silver, and Deng Zixuan became entangled when he thought of silver. Hell, if only somewhere to find a mountain of gold and treasures.

Thinking of the treasure, Deng Zixuan remembered something in a flash of inspiration, and couldn't help but get excited. The so-called rumors in the market will not be groundless, and now that the heroes have joined to help, they must fight. Deng Zixuan was excited and secretly thought: To carry out this jihua, you must be prepared, find him and think of someone again, and go to him tomorrow. Soon Deng Zixuan fell asleep, and slept very sweetly.

The next day, the temperature dropped a bit, and the cold air began to move southwards in a big way. Three people walked side by side on the road, "Deng Gongzi, what are you taking us to do early in the morning?" It seems to be mysterious! Pei Gejin asked confusedly. Let's go buy guns! "Buying a gun? We are not used to foreigners' rifles, but knives are still happy! Chen Jintang was puzzled. If you are not used to it, you have to make it, haven't you learned the foreign gun team that stumped the Huai Army? "Yes! If we hadn't run into the foreign guns, we wouldn't have lost so badly. Are you going to form a foreign gun team? Chen Jintang was taken aback!

"Isn't that looking for death? I'm not going to do anything stupid! "Foreign guns are too long, they will be found at any time, according to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, it is a capital crime for people to carry guns!" Pei Gejin was puzzled. Deng Zixuan smiled and said: "Let's buy a pistol, to be precise, a revolver!" "Revolver?" The two couldn't help but exclaim. "I'm not sure I'll be able to buy a gun right now, but I'll have to try my luck.

"Oh! Dear Deng, are you here to save money again? Charlie, the manager of Jardine Matheson, greeted him with a smile. Dear Mr. Charlie, I'm not here to save money, I'm here to ask for help! Deng Zixuan's fluent English surprised Chen Jintang and Pei Gejin, and their eyes widened in unison. Mr. Deng is my god of wealth and brings me good luck, please say! Charlie was still smiling

"Mr. Charlie, I want to buy the most advanced revolver made in the United States, 2,000 rounds of ammunition, which is what you often call a Colt pistol!" Charlie was slightly surprised when he heard this, and said: "Mr. Deng is a businessman, I don't know what you are buying guns for, maybe you want to kill people!" "Mr. Charlie, why should I kill someone, it's just for self-defense, if Mr. Charlie is embarrassed, forget it." "According to the laws of your country, it is a capital offense to buy firearms without permission, are you not afraid?" "As long as you don't say it, I don't think anyone will know, and besides, you are a foreigner, even if you find out, you will not be implicated!" Deng Zixuan said with a smile.

Charlie groaned for a while and said, "The revolver is very expensive, I don't know if Mr. can afford it!" "Mr. Charlie, please?" "Wait a minute, I'll come when I go!" I knew I was going to be slaughtered, but now I had to do it. After Charlie left, Chen Jintang asked in confusion: "Deng Gongzi, I didn't expect you to write foreign?" Deng Zixuan smiled and said: "I learned secretly from the priest in the church, and if I don't know foreign language when dealing with foreigners, I will be deceived." But I know about foreign languages, and no one in our family knows about it, so I hope you keep it secret! Chen Jintang and Pei Gejin nodded.

After a while, Charlie came back and said, "Mr. Deng, the price has been negotiated, nine Colt pistols, 2,000 rounds of ammunition, and 500 taels of silver." "Deal!" Deng Zixuan is very simple, the other party is killing you, but what can be done. 500 taels of silver! Deng Zixuan was indeed a little distressed......
