Chapter 85 Valuable Arms

(Chapter 2 is here, please collect and vote. Thank you to the book friends "Leng Yingyue", "Fengmu Longbow", and "My baby is very cute" for rewards and evaluation tickets.)

Three hours later, a small county in Jinzhong

In the largest pawn shop in Yuansheng in the county, the shopkeeper in charge of the pawn shop was sweating heavily

"This, this guest, you dare not accept these guys you want to be a small shop! I beg this military master to give it a lot and let it go. The shop is willing to give it to the military master five hundred oceans as a filial piety."

The pawnshop shopkeeper, who was almost in his sixties, nodded and begged for mercy when he saw bags of open guns and ammunition in the yard. The pawnshop shop owners who were in charge also looked at Liu Qi in great horror.

"...I said, shopkeeper, have you made some mistakes? You wouldn't think I'm here to blackmail, right? Please see clearly that these are just arms and medicines I'm going to sell!"

Liu Qi looked at the scene of the grey-haired shopkeeper begging for mercy in a speechless manner. What's going on? He just asked to use dozens of 38 large covers, a few crooked light machine guns, and dozens of boxes of bullet and grenades to exchange for a few antiques in this pawn shop. There is no need to make it as if he was going to rob you, right? I remember that during the Republic of China and the Anti-Japanese War, weren't the arms and medicines in the Celestial Empire were quite popular? Why didn't this pawn shop be collected? Do you have to rob yourself directly? It seems that this place is not occupied by rogue chickens, and this pawn shop is a legitimate business. Liu Qi really couldn't do it if he wanted to rob, so of course he wouldn't hesitate if he changed it to a traitor.

"…You are not a soldier? But you are really here to pawn?"

After hearing Liu Qi's words, the old shopkeeper finally stopped begging for mercy and cried, but raised his head and looked at Liu Qi carefully, with a serious tone.

"Do I need to lie to you? Let me give you a good word. Can these firearms and medicines be replaced with antiques and other things? Of course, gold, silver and jewelry are also fine. If you don't want to change, the old man will take the things away!"

Liu Qi was also a little angry and said something tough.

"Switch! I'll change it for you now! Third son, hurry up and take out the list of death for me!"

After hearing Liu Qi's affirmative answer, the shopkeeper immediately agreed and quickly ordered his friend to start to exchange for antiques and antiques for Liu Qi. Just kidding, antiques in chaos are not too valuable now. There are so many such deadly antiques in pawnshops. The price of pawnshops is as low as possible. However, the prices of guns, ammunition and medicines have been rising all the time, and there is still no market price. It is not something you can buy directly if you have money.

Soon, Liu Qi knew why arms and medicines were all profitable.

“Seventeen antiques and antiques??”

Liu Qi was a little surprised when he looked at the dozen or so antiques in front of him. Can he change these antiques by just thirty 38 large covers, two crooked handles and some ammunition, plus a box of ten bottles of medical alcohol and disinfection bandages? Even though Liu Qi was not sure about the evaluation of the antiques, the dozen or so antiques in front of him gave Liu Qi an old feeling in his mental sense. It was obviously all old items that were really old, not a parallel product.

"Guest, the total price of your guns, ammunition and medicine is 6,000 oceans. The total price of these seventeen antique shops is 6,300 yuan. If you are not satisfied, you can discuss it..."

The pawnshop shop owner was obviously a little misunderstood. He thought Liu Qi was dissatisfied with the price, so he quickly explained, and took out the list of pawn items to hand it to Liu Qi for a look.

"No need, I'm very satisfied. Just this price! By the way, shopkeeper, can you eat more guns and ammunition here? I have a batch of more guns and ammunition on hand!"

Liu Qi looked at the dozens of antique vases, inkstones, and booklets, and was very satisfied with the transaction results. Anyway, those guns were plundered from the soldiers with feet and basin chickens, so Liu Qi didn't feel sorry for him. Besides, the most valuable ones on his hand were those infantry cannons and shells, which were something that could be exchanged for a high price.

"More? Can guests say a rough number?"

When he heard that Liu Qi was very satisfied with the deal, he breathed a sigh of relief. His deal was profitable. Although the value of those dozen antiques was far more than 6,000 yuan, there were really few people who had the time to play with antiques in this chaos and he had collected these dozens of antiques at a low price. Now he saw Liu Qi exchanged guns, ammunition and medicines for antiques and he decisively chose to take action. The dozen antiques he chose were genuine, and none of them were fake.

Well, of course, this is because Liu Qi is too arrogant. He has thirty 38 large covers and two crooked machine guns. The pawnshop owner doesn't want to die because he makes a few fakes in it. I believe that the person who can get these things is not something he can afford. Besides, these guns, ammunition and medicines are much more popular than antiques now. Whether it is the landlords, bandits, the Jinsui Army, the Central Army, or the miscellaneous army, the more weapons and ammunition, the more prices they are, the higher the prices.

There is no way, after Yan Xishan's Taiyuan Arsenal, which had been run for many years, fell into the hands of the footbow chicken in an almost complete manner, Yan Xishan, who could have met the consumption of the Jinsui Army and had excess arms production and exported money and materials, could only rely on the small number of factories that were relocated to produce a small amount of weapons and ammunition, and could not even meet the requirements of the Jinsui Army itself. As for other Central Army, miscellaneous army, Eighth Route Army, etc., most of the new regiments like Li Yunlong can only hold old rifles, and a small number of them are equipped with big swords.

Although the remaining Central Army and miscellaneous army can obtain some weapons and ammunition to supplement, they also lack sufficient weapons and ammunition. As for those landlords who spend a lot of money to buy weapons and ammunition to protect their homes or expand their strength, bandits and other things have made the arms market in Jin Province extremely popular, and the prices of weapons and ammunition have also risen all the way.

Liu Qi's group of arms pawn shop owners can get nearly twice the profit after re-selling, and medicine is even more popular. Therefore, when Liu Qi said that there were still guns and ammunition to trade, the shopkeeper's eyes immediately glowed.

"Two hundred and eighty large covers, nine crooked light machine guns, nine grenade launchers, four submachine guns, two miscellaneous rifles, one miscellaneous light machine gun, two Type 92 infantry cannons, and several ammunition!"

Liu Qi calculated and threw out more than half of the rifles, light machine guns, grenade launchers and Call of Duty 5 that he had harvested, and even took out two Type 92 infantry cannons.

"Customer, guest! You just said there was a cannon???!!"

The shopkeeper heard Liu Qi's words, especially the last two 92 infantry guns, as if he had just discovered that he had Parkinson's syndrome. His hands were trembling and asked tremblingly.

"Yes, what about the 70MM caliber Type 92 infantry cannon produced by two-door footbath chicken? Is there any problem?"

Liu Qi looked at the pawnshop shopkeeper and was very curious. Is it necessary to look like this?

"Guest! This, this shop can't eat so much goods, especially those two infantry cannons! The shop really doesn't have the ability to take action like this. This thing is really too hot..."

After taking a few deep breaths in a trembling manner, the shopkeeper finally calmed down and explained to Liu Qi.

This is not something he can do. He can make the decision on dozens of rifles and two light machine guns, and then go back and discuss it with the owner. However, this kind of problem involving hundreds of rifles, more than a dozen machine guns, grenade launchers and artillery is definitely not something he can do. This kind of big deal must be done by the owner to nod.

"This is easy to say. You can find someone who is capable of eating it. I believe it should be enough for one day, right?"

Liu Qi also felt that it was unreliable to let the largest pawnshop in a small county eat such weapons and equipment that were enough to arm an infantry battalion, but it didn't matter. There were people in Jinzhong who could eat this arms.

"Sure, this is fine. My surname is Zhang, and I am known as Zhang Manager. I dare to ask the customer's name, how to contact the customer? And is the customer planning to trade real money or something else?"

One day was enough, and Zhang Manager Zhang suddenly felt at a loss. This transaction seemed to be out of the way. Even if he could not eat the arms, it was enough for his family to share it.

"Preferring priority to exchange antiques, followed by gold, silver and jewelry. As for banknotes, don't take them! Tomorrow this point goes to the small woods ten miles outside the city to trade, and hand in the money and deliver the goods in the same way!"

Liu Qi did not have the leisure to collect legal currency issued by the principal or Yan Xishan’s local tickets. This must be made in advance, otherwise Liu Qi would not want to receive a pile of waste paper and go back.

"Of course, you can give priority to exchanging antiques. Is it okay to have any antique?"

Manager Zhang was not surprised. In fact, paper money was not very reliable during the Republic of China and during the War of Resistance Against Japan. There were not too many things about devaluation. It was far less reliable than gold, silver and other things. However, this man actually asked for priority exchange of antiques. This is a strange thing.

Of course, it is their freedom to exchange what people like, and Zhang Manager Zhang doesn’t care. But just in case, Zhang Manager Zhang asked first and confirmed what types of antiques were traded.

"Yes, as long as it is a real antique, there is no limit on the type of transaction!"

Liu Qi didn't know how troubled he would find that there were so many kinds of goods traded to open a museum tomorrow. Instead, he began to leave and check his things after he finished speaking.

One hour later, several fast horses began to run out of the county town and began to run in one direction.

Two or three hours later, a group of cavalry in Jinsui Army uniforms followed these fast horses back into the county town, and began to communicate and exchange interests with several wealthy families in the county town.

Liu Qi, who is conducting some special experiments, did not know that a county in Jinzhong, Jin Province, in the world of swords, had already caused a slight wave of his actions because of his actions.
