Holmes thought for four seconds, and the bull at the corner behind him and the gold bar in his hand took him a second to figure it out.

Now that this game has been added, it's not so easy to quit, and the last person who wanted to quit was named Lockhart, and now the grass on his grave is three feet high.

Moreover, more and more people are joining this game now.

Only the man on horseback in front of him could protect him.

So he rushed forward without hesitation.

Chen Jianqiu directly lifted him to the horse:

"Got it?"

Holmes pondered for a moment: "I want a raise. ”

Chen Jianqiu laughed, galloped wildly, and left the white robes and bulls behind.

He was going to take Holmes to join the birds as soon as possible.

But before the rendezvous, he had one more thing to do.

A minute later, the horses stopped at the door of the Browning gun shop.

The door to the gun shop was closed, and Jerry and Browning probed their heads through the side window. Browning saw the black radish parked at the door, as if he had seen a savior.

"Quick, go open the door." He arched Jerry over his shoulder and told him to hurry to open the door.

The door opened.

Chen Jianqiu strode into the gun shop, carrying a lever rifle behind his back.

"Well, you're here, the west side of town is in chaos, I don't know what's going on, Jerry and I are still thinking about going to the hotel to find you." Browning greeted him, he looked out the door again, and found that there was no one behind him, "Huh? Why is it just the two of you? ”

Chen Jianqiu didn't even look at him, he hurriedly swept past Browning and whispered to him, "Follow me to the back." Then he went straight into the back room.

Browning didn't know what was going on, so he had to follow in.

Chen Jianqiu was not polite, he sat directly on a chair next to the table in the back room, he first took off the rifle on his back and put it on the table, and then pulled out the Colt on his waist and rested it next to the rifle.

He took off his gloves and asked, as he bent down to dust off his trouser legs:

"How many guns did you sell to the mayor?"

Browning was confused, not knowing what he was asking this for at this time,

He didn't think about how to answer for a while, and he hesitated for a while: "This, I sold it, but it's ......"

Chen Jianqiu straightened up, picked up the spear on the table, and threw it directly to Browning: "Did you sell this gun from your gun shop?" ”

Browning grabbed the spear he had thrown in his hands and stumbled backwards a few steps before he picked it up and examined it.

He didn't pay attention to Chen Jianqiu when he entered the door just now, he just felt that this gun was familiar, but after he got it in his hand, he found the problem.

The gun, which he had modified in imitation of Winchester 1873, had arrived two weeks earlier, for which he had to pay a patent fee to Winchester, and the butt was stamped with the words "Made by Browning", which he could not rely on.

"How did you get this gun?" He raised his head and looked at Chen Jianqiu, only to find that Chen Jianqiu was staring at him, his face sinking like water.

"Is this time to ask yourself?"

Chen Jianqiu took out a few bullets from the bullet belt and lined them up on the table one by one, then he opened the Colt bullet nest on the table and began to stuff the bullets on the table into it one by one.

"Browning, did your father teach you what is the greatest taboo of being a weapons dealer?"

Chen Jianqiu asked as he stuffed the bullet.

Browning stood there a little bewildered, not knowing what to say.

"That is, never be killed by a weapon that you have sold." Chen Jianqiu loaded a gun, he closed the bullet nest, raised the gun with both hands, and aimed his gaze along the crosshairs.

Browning suddenly felt sweat running down his back, he wasn't a stupid man, and roughly guessed what was going on.

"I've certainly been selling guns to the mayor, half of the cart of Browning single-shot rifles sold to him the last time I came with you, and this lever repeater was delivered to him last week." Browning said eagerly.

"Those bullets from the other day aren't just galvanized, right?"

"Well, those bullets are 44-40 center primer shells, and with a changed dosage, they are more powerful, but they are more dangerous if they go off." Browning paused, "That's what the mayor asked for too." ”

"So?" Chen Jianqiu put down the Colt and began to load another bullet.

Browning was even more nervous, sweat dripping down his cheeks as the loaded revolver rested on the table with the muzzle pointed at him.

He knew better than anyone the power of this gun, and he even did everything he could to do it.

"Chen, you know the principles of my business, I don't ask about the privacy of my customers, I never ask them what they do with their guns, I don't care who they kill with guns, even the president has nothing to do with me."

"I don't know what the mayor did, I really, really, really don't know anything."

Browning was so anxious that his neck was red, these were his inner words, and they didn't seem to be fake.

Chen Jianqiu put down the gun, he stood up, walked to Browning, sat on the table, clasped his hands to his chest, and said to Browning:

"John, I respect your work ethic and believe that you have nothing to do with this matter, we were, are, and will be good partners.

"I don't blame a friend, but I don't spare any of my enemies, and in general, I don't like to associate with my enemies, and I send them where they need to go."

Browning's clothes were soaking wet behind his back.

"So, can you tell me about our dear mayor now?" Chen Jianqiu inserted the two revolvers back into their holsters.

"All I know is that he knows my father, and that's why my father opened the gun shop branch here from Utah." Browning shook his head, "But I can entrust my brother to go back and find the correspondence between my father and him." ”

"If there is, please leave the trouble behind, and I will send someone to contact you." Chen Jianqiu stood up, patted his clothes and walked out of the back room, and returned to the front hall of the gun shop.

He took the gold bar back from Holmes's hand and handed it to Browning in front of the stunned Holmes.

"You are now the backbone of the company's original shares, don't care about those three melons and two dates." Chen Jianqiu smiled and said to Holmes, "You stay here first." ”

He then turned to Browning:

"This is the cost of making up the gun, maintenance, and changing the gun, and the rest is counted as a deposit and placed here for you, if there are other transactions in the future, it will be deducted from it first."

Browning took the gold bar, he hesitated, but still asked, "Chen, can you tell me what happened tonight?" ”

"The mayor of the town financed a mob to ransack Montrose." Chen Jianqiu said succinctly, "Your side won't be peaceful recently. ”

"So what are we going to do?" Browning verified his guess, a little frustrated.

"Later, I'll ask Zhang Danian to send a few people over to help you, you just need to pay their salaries." Chen Jianqiu looked up and down at the gun shop and nodded, "There are so many people in the gun shop, it's indeed a bit cold." ”

"How many people, is it enough?" Browning was still a little worried.

"Enough." Chen Jianqiu walked out of the door of the gun shop, "Because, those thugs, at least half of them died tonight." ”

Two more
