In exchange for teaching him to draw, Anna hoped that Qin Beiyang would teach her to shoot, saying that she would learn to defend herself in troubled times.

Qin Beiyang refused: "I hate killing people, and I don't want to see you with a gun." If, there must be someone to protect you, then I can. ”

"Can you protect me for the rest of my life?"

As soon as these words came out, Qin Beiyang was extremely embarrassed and blushed, he was no longer a child, knowing the meaning of this sentence, he shook his head and ran away.

The next day, Ouyang Anna went to the Jiangwan swamp with Qi Yuanshan and asked him to teach him to shoot and shoot targets.

Qi Yuanshan did not shirk, he did a good job of targeting in the wilderness, and taught Anna how to use the gun, how to maintain and even disassemble and restore it. His marksmanship was excellent, not only hitting the bull's-eye, but also several wild animals, but Anna told him not to kill. Qi Yuanshan and her almost face-to-face corrected their posture, but they did not take the opportunity to be light and thin. He and Qin Beiyang are both seventeen years old, but Qi Yuanshan's eyebrows, eyes and speech are like adults, he understands the sophistication of human feelings, knows how to survive in troubled times, and is more ambitious.

"Qi Yuanshan, what do you think of my father?"

"Mr. Ouyang is my master, a hero who stands up to the heavens and the earth, and the only way for my generation to be a disciple is to serve Master and Miss with hard work."

Anna frowned: "I hate these polite words the most!" I'll ignore you. ”

"Well, every time I see your father, I am scared from the bottom of my heart." Qi Yuanshan couldn't hold back, he could only say the truth, "People say that a companion is like a tiger, I don't know when, I will offend him and disappear from the world silently." ”

"My dad is a demon king of the world." Anna raised her gun and fired a shot, but she didn't know what it hit, and the recoil made her wrist hurt, "Ten years ago, he was a pirate!" ”

"On September 2, 1907, the Japanese steamer that disappeared in the East China Sea, the millions of silver in the indemnity of Gengzi, is really related to your family?"

"I'm sorry I can't tell you these secrets!" Ouyang Anna pointed her gun at the center of his eyebrows, "Qi Yuanshan, you are like a stout little tree, sooner or later it will grow into a towering tree." ”

The autumn wind blew through the reed flowers in the wilderness of Jiangwan, and the reed flowers flew all over the sky like heavy snow, almost blindfolding the girl's glass-colored eyes......

Qi Yuanshan and Ouyang Anna returned from shooting in Jiangwan, it was already dark, and there was a knock on the door of Dharma Mountain on the sea.

Qin Beiyang repaired the electric light in the door room and opened the door easily. He saw a man in a suit and tie, no more than twenty-seven or eighteen years old, with meticulous hair combed and a small car parked behind him. Where do you think you've seen it?

The other party also took half a step back, frowned and asked, "Mr. Qin?" ”

No one had ever called him "Mr. Qin", and Qin Beiyang instantly recognized it - the Japanese who fought in the Hongkou Judo Hall in Jingwu Sports and acted as an interpreter for both sides.

"I'm Taiki Haneda, so please take care of me."

Qin Beiyang was stunned for a moment, so he had to exchange courtesies, and clasped his fists with both hands: "I am Qin Beiyang, it's getting late, what are you doing?" ”

"May I ask if Mr. Ouyang, the owner of Dharma Mountain on the sea, is here?"

With that, he handed out a famous post, which read "Haneda Kisen Co., Ltd." Qi Yuanshan also came, he glared at Haneda Taiki, took the name post, and went upstairs to report.

After a while, Qi Yuanshan came to the living room with Haneda Taishu. Unexpectedly, Ouyang Sicong attached great importance to this meeting, deliberately changed into a black silk flower satin horse coat, and personally brewed Longjing new tea to entertain the guests. He also dragged his daughter Anna as a companion, and Qin Beiyang and Qi Yuanshan stood in the corner waiting.

Ouyang Sicong twisted his Napoleon III-style beard. He had invested in the shipping industry and knew that Japan's Haneda Trading Company was a powerful chaebol, and its subsidiary, Haneda Kisen Co., Ltd., was a shipping tycoon on the same level as Nippon Yusen and Nissin Kisen, with eight ships of more than 1,000 tons on the Sino-Japanese route alone. Daiki Haneda is familiar with Chinese etiquette, and with the politeness of the Japanese, his speech is like a spring breeze. He also specially praised Qin Beiyang, saying that Ouyang Mansion has a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, no wonder he can become a man of the year in Shanghai.

Of course, the owner of Mt. Dharma on the sea did not eat this: "Mr. Haneda, your Chinese is so good, where did you learn it?" ”

"Since the Edo period, the Haneda family has been doing business with China, and has a warehouse in Nagasaki dedicated to receiving Chinese merchant ships. My father ordered me to come to China to study, and I graduated from the East Asia Tongwen Academy in Shanghai. ”

"I've been to your school building on Hongqiao Road in Xujiahui, and many of your classmates are well-versed in Chinese history and archaeology."

There is still the second half of the sentence that is not said -- the East Asian Tongwen Academy, which was opened by the Japanese government in Shanghai, has also cultivated a large number of spies to spy on Chinese intelligence.

"Mr. Ouyang, I want to talk to you alone, can you ......?"

"Okay."

He immediately withdrew from the crowd around him, including his daughter Anna.

There were only two people left in the room, and Haneda Taiki was a little nervous, and he held back for a long time before he said: "The Dharma Mountain on the Sea is famous in Shanghai, but I heard that there is another Dharma Mountain." ”

As soon as these words came out, the owner's face immediately turned cold: "Yes, the real Dharma Mountain is an isolated island located in the center of the East China Sea. ”

"I heard that that island is also Mr. Ouyang's hometown."

"Why the hell are you here?"

As he spoke, Ouyang Sicong quietly moved his right hand and approached the pistol hidden in his waist.

"Ten years ago, in the 40th year of the Meiji era, the 33rd year of Guangxu, and in 1907 in the Western calendar, my grandfather, Haneda Ryoma, the president of Haneda Trading Company and Haneda Steam Turbine Co., Ltd., was entrusted by the Japanese government to take the steamer Xu Fukumaru to escort the Gengzi indemnity of that year, and set off from Shanghai to Kobe. One million taels of silver, as well as hundreds of passengers, went missing on the way, and their whereabouts are still unknown. ”

"Mr. Haneda, I've heard about this too, some people say it's a pirate encounter, others say it's a storm."

"There is also a theory that my grandfather went into exile in Brazil or Peru in South America, greedy for the million taels of silver...... It's ridiculous! The Imperial Japanese government censored the Haneda trading company for a year, and the trading company almost went bankrupt. Fortunately, the Prime Minister at the time, His Royal Highness the Prime Minister of Saionji Temple, supported my family and asked the insurance company to pay the full amount, so we were able to avoid this catastrophe. ”

Ouyang Sicong responded carefully: "The East China Sea is turbulent, and there are countless secrets, I am afraid that this Gengzi indemnity has already been buried at the bottom of the sea." ”

However, the meteorological data at the time showed that there were no major winds and waves in the East China Sea. The location of the ship's disappearance is most likely on Mt. Damo, near the central point of the Sino-Japanese route. ”

"Although the location of Dharma Mountain is good, there are dense reefs nearby, and it has been a ship since ancient times, and I don't know how many people have drowned."

"My father passed away last year, and I am already the governor of the Haneda family, so I am curious about the whereabouts of this Gengzi indemnity, but the most important thing is the life and death of my grandfather."

"What do you want to say?" Ouyang Sicong didn't allow himself to be led by others, so he simply went straight to the point, "Do you doubt that I did it?" ”

Haneda Taiki was afraid of his vicious gaze and shook his head repeatedly: "No, I'm here for another thing. I heard that your mansion has come to a treasure of the town hall. ”

Hearing this, Ouyang Sicong's face was slightly relaxed: "May I ask which treasure are you referring to?" ”

"Gravemon."

The hall was silent for a moment, and beads of sweat appeared on Haneda Taiki's forehead, obviously the room was so cold that people shivered.

"There are heavy weapons at home, unless you are a guest, you can't show people. It is also an honor for us to have Mr. Haneda here today. Mr. graduated from the East Asia Tongwen Academy, he must be a naturalist, so please appreciate the treasures for my family. ”
