Chapter 7 Big trouble

"Ah Yeh, Ah Yeh!"

In the early morning, Yang Qiulian, who was free and happy in the Sichuan Army North School, sneezed in the free and happy mouth of the Qin Dada family, kept muttering in his heart whether those close friends in his previous life were thinking of him.

Perhaps it was because the rewards from Lord Chuan Governor yesterday were too abundant. There was no soldier in the huge northern schoolyard. Fortunately, he had no intention of chatting with others, so he started running around the schoolyard to exercise.

This is a habit he developed when he served in his previous life. He never stopped after retirement, because jogging 10,000 meters every morning can not only exercise his body, but also ensure that his muscles are at their peak all day long. Especially now in a chaotic world, we are not aware of our enemies, and we need to be careful to deal with it.

Because there were no training equipment, Yang Qiu stretched out his body and changed his clothes after running. He also put on the fake beard he had asked Bingwen to find last night. Finally, he put on a hat again. After checking the pistol again, he saw that no one was paying attention and sneaked out of the military camp.

After Zhao Erfeng's "promotion" yesterday, he dared not say that he was shouting and beating and killing. At least he has become the most unpopular person in Sichuan, so he must be careful when going out. Originally, yesterday Xiao Anguo told Wan to take them with him to go out, but Yang Qiu still felt that this matter had to be done alone.

What's up?

Exchange money!

After checking the purse stolen from Du Laoliu, Yang Qiu found that there were as many as 5,000 oceans inside. Originally, it was possible to return to Wuhan before redeeming, but after coming to Chengdu, he should go out for a walk. In addition, he forgot that the road protection movement evolved into an armed revolution, just in case he decided to exchange it for cash.

Hesheng Yuan Piaohao is a famous Shanxi merchant Piaohao in the late Qing Dynasty. It not only opened stores all over the country, but also opened in Nanyang, Japan. So Yang Qiu decided to choose this one after a few rounds.

"Master, are you going to...exchange all?" The shopkeeper holding the silver notes and wearing reading glasses looked up and down at Yang Qiu, which made him very upset. He looked like a bully, and even shouted in the Northeast accent he learned in his previous life: "What's wrong? I won't pay it?"

"No, no." The old shopkeeper knew at first glance that Yang Qiu might not understand how many five thousand oceans are. He smiled and said, "This master, the five thousand oceans can be combined with Shengyuan, but where are you going to put them?"

Yang Qiu didn't understand at first, but when he saw the old shopkeeper constantly scan his empty hands, he suddenly realized.

It is the late Qing Dynasty. Many poor areas can sell their children for one or two oceans, so even ordinary wealthy families will not save so many oceans at home, because this thing is not light, and each silver dollar weighs half a tael. After Xiao Anguo and his friends left last night, he did not touch the three hundred oceans, so he did not notice the weight at all. At this moment, the five thousand oceans are more than one hundred kilograms, and even a "burly man" like him cannot take it with him.

Yang Qiu scratched his head and knew that he had blamed the old shopkeeper for wrongly, but he still didn't like silver notes. After all, the Xinhai in history was right in front of him, and no one knew whether the war would depreciate. However, it was not convenient to carry the five thousand oceans with him. After thinking about it, he asked: "Old shopkeeper, can it be exchanged for US dollars?"

"Dollar?"

The old shopkeeper was slightly stunned. He was also a worldly-wise and extraordinary person, but he saw someone traveling to the ticket account to exchange for foreigners' money. He pushed his reading glasses up and said with a smile: "This man, we are ticket accounts. If you want to exchange for foreigners' money, you need to exchange the money first and then go to the foreigners' bank to exchange for money. Don't talk about the old man, if you really want to exchange for foreigners' money, it's better to be more careful. There are many things in it."

Yang Qiu didn't know that the bill number could not be exchanged for US dollars, so he thought it belonged to the banking system.

After guessing Yang Qiu's thoughts, the old shopkeeper narrowed his eyes and said, "My master, I think you are probably going to travel far. I think you might as well go to the foreign concession in Hankou. There can be exchanged there, but you may have to suffer some losses. If you don't feel troublesome, it's better to go to Shanghai, the price is more reasonable."

The old shopkeeper was quite enthusiastic. Not only did he tell Yang Qiu how to exchange it, but he also roughly mentioned the price comparison. According to the official price of 10 yuan in Shanghai, it can be exchanged for 1 pound, and 1 pound is equal to about 5 US dollars.

Yang Qiu thanked the old shopkeeper, took out two oceans and exchanged some copper coins, then packed the silver notes and stuffed them into his arms, but he didn't notice that the pistol under his clothes had leaked out. The young man standing next to him with his hands hanging down was slightly stunned after seeing the gun. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly showed ecstasy in his eyes.

After Yang Qiu left, the guy also made up a lie and asked the old shopkeeper for leave, and then ran to the dock quickly.

"Brother Wang, they are all made in Germany."

In the warehouse next to Su Wharf, a man in black clothes picked up a German-made Mauser rifle and threw it to Wang Tianjie behind him. After playing with it for a few times, he nodded with satisfaction. Although the two hundred rifles are not many, as long as they are used well, they can still play a big role.

"Brother Wang, I'll go and ask my elder brother to come and pick up the goods."

"Stop." Wang Tianjie stopped his subordinates and pointed at his nose and cursed: "You idiot, Qin Zaigen is just a gangster, just use him. If you give him a few more guns, who will listen to us in the future!"

"But......."

"Nothing is not bad." Wang Tianjie couldn't let his subordinates speak at all. He pointed at the gun and said, "Let our brothers come to pick up the goods and take them all back to Rong County. I tell you, guns are the foundation for our peaceful life to overthrow the Qing Dynasty."

Seeing Wang Tianjie staring at him fiercely, his subordinates didn't dare to speak anymore, but they were a little dissatisfied with this matter. No matter what, Brother Lao will be the main force this time, everyone is a grasshopper on the same rope. If the failure is finally caused by missing these guns, everyone will still be unlucky.

After saying that, Wang Tianjie took out a list from his arms and handed it to his subordinates: "This is the list of our revolutionary comrades in Sichuan. You will take it back later, so that you can keep it for the future if..."

His subordinates were slightly stunned. Before they could understand why Wang Tianjie left such an important thing by his side, they suddenly saw a partner looking outside running in and shouting anxiously: "Brother Wang, someone has discovered Yang Qiu on the street!"

"What!" Wang Tianjie jumped up suddenly, his eyes flashed with murderous aura, and then became excited again. It seemed as if he had seen the scene of himself killing Yang Qiu. After the revolution was successful, he was appointed as the governor of Sichuan because of this great achievement. So without thinking, he put the list back in his arms, then gritted his teeth and picked up a rifle, lit dozens of bullets and said, "I'll go back, you can transfer the fortune first." After that, he ran out without looking back, leaving only the subordinates looking at each other and not knowing what to do.

Walking on the street, Yang Qiu was in a much better mood.

Although it was not exchanged for hard currency, the old shopkeeper's words also made him understand the value of silver dollars, and only then did he realize that the five thousand oceans in his arms were really worth a lot of wealth, because nowadays, there are only tens of thousands of oceans to open a large spinning mill.

However, he has no intention of building a yarn mill. Even if he does not have a super-large scale of millions of ingots, he will be run to death by the Japanese and the great powers. Moreover, there is no one or territory now, so it is better to find a way to exchange this money into hard currency such as US dollars and deposit it.

When he has money, he can be considered a rich man, which makes his mind much more active. In addition, he doesn’t need to rush to travel after consciously disguising himself. His mind has also risen when he is just a little bit slower.

The sensational road protection movement seemed to have affected this city. There were some big-character posters promoting road protection everywhere on the streets. Yang Qiu bought a copy of the famous local Shu Daily and found that most of them were promoting the importance of the Hanchuan Railway and the idea of ​​protecting the road and serving the country.

“Get out of the way, get out of the way….”

Just as he was enjoying watching, a small group of Qing soldiers patrolling the streets appeared in front. When the people saw them, the people avoided them. One of the Qing soldiers withdrew from a big-character poster and suddenly his eyes lit up and walked towards Yang Qiu.

"Oops!"

Seeing this guy staring at the newspaper in his hand, a gloating expression appeared on his face. Yang Qiu thought it was not good, remembering that the founder of Shubao was a revolutionary party named Deng Xiaoke and one of the initiators of this road protection movement. These guys would not be trying to make a statement about this.

Yang Qiu turned his head and wanted to leave, but as soon as he turned around, he found a large group of porters walking away from behind. A young man who had seen in Heshengyuanli was also in the crowd, muttering to the lead porter while pointing at the place.

This scene made his heart sink suddenly, and he understood that it was being raised by someone! He unconsciously swept both sides of his eyes.

There is a row of houses on the right. If there is no back door, it will be a dead end. There is an alley on the left, but the three vegetable vendors at the entrance of the alley feel a little weird no matter how they look at it.

Seeing Yang Qiu's eyes drifting, the leader of the porter knew that it was going to be bad, so he didn't bother to expose himself and suddenly pulled out a big knife from behind and pointed it at him and shouted: "Catch him, he is Yang Qiu, the Qing thief who killed my brother robbed!"

"He Shengyuan! You can wait and see!"

Yang Qiu thought that He Shengyuan had betrayed him, so he vented all his anger on the piaohao. He turned his head and was about to run away when he found that the Qing army police officers he had seen had also come over. Not only did he not have the idea of ​​protecting the "No. 1 Hero of the Qing Dynasty", but he also kept sneering at himself!

"Kill him!"

As the loud shout sounded, the three vegetable vendors on the left took the lead. One of them pulled out a bright embroidered saber from under the basket and chopped it down. Yang Qiu, who had already guessed, mistook and avoided it before he could see clearly the situation, a shoulder pole next to him had already swept to his chest.

The violent impact and pain almost didn't make him breathe. He staggered and took a few steps to stand firm. At this time, two more brothers had already arrived. After Yang Qiu avoided the first person's big knife, the second knife arrived again before he could breathe well.

This is really deadly!

Seeing this, Yang Qiu quickly took a step away, kicked the guy away with a sharp whip leg on the axis, then grabbed the basket next to him and threw it backwards. The basket blocked the guys who were rushing, and finally won a gap for him. He took out his pistol with his right hand and pointed it at the vegetable vendor who launched the attack.

After seeing the terrifying pistol described by Du Laoliu in prison last night, the guy was so scared that he quickly dodged. Yang Qiu himself did not want to make a big grudge again. Since the other party avoided it and ran to the left alley, he unexpectedly before he could enter the entrance of the alley, a Mauser rifle suddenly poked out from inside.

This scared him to death. Without even thinking, he suddenly grabbed the barrel with his left hand and lifted it up. The m1911 in his right hand pointed at the person who came to his chest and shot it.

Bang, bang!

As the gunshot sounded almost at the same time, a bullet flew over to Yang Qiu's scalp, a young man in Japanese student uniform flew backwards, hitting his body hard against the wall, his eyes wide open and not yet closed, as if he couldn't believe he would be shot.

"Wang Tianjie is Lord Wang Tianjie of the Tongmenghui! Come on, Yang Qiugou thief killed the leader of the Comrades' Association!"

"Wang Tianjie!!!" The name made Yang Qiu's forehead explode! I remember that this guy was an activist of the Sichuan Road Protection Movement and one of the leaders of the Tongmenghui in Sichuan!

Wang Tianjie died with his eyes open. He never expected that he would secretly bring out the gun when he got the news just now. He wanted to take the opportunity to kill this Qing court lackey who established his power in Sichuan, who would be shot. He did not expect that this guy could react so quickly under the pursuit of so many robed brothers.

Seeing his chest almost shattered, he slowly fell down against the wall like a soft rubber, Yang Qiu knew that he was really finished!

Several Qing army policemen were also panicked. They didn't expect Wang Tianjie to suddenly appear here and tried to attack Yang Qiu with rifles. Although they wanted Yang Qiu to die, this guy killed the Sichuan head of Tongmenghui in public, which made great contributions. The news would definitely reach the Governor's Office and even alarm the court!

If this guy was killed, it would be fine, but now he has entered the alley and his methods are "vicious" and cannot be stopped. So he was so scared that he quickly turned the wind and blew the police whistle and pretended to assassinate the revolutionary party. In an instant, a sharp arrest whistle sounded all over the city.

Taking advantage of a moment of chaos, Yang Qiu glanced at the bloody mud on the wall, and suddenly gritted his teeth and drilled deeper along the alley.

But he didn't see a policeman chasing in from behind who was checking whether Wang Tianjie was dead, and then vanished along the fork in joy.
