Chapter 14: Not Only Thick, But Also Black

  Chapter 406: The Sea That Belongs To Me (Final Chapter)

  You can quickly enter the station and provide free downloads of fine products and txt formats! The Arsenal is very far from the Ministry of War, and it took the three of them a long time to get there.

  "This is Director Yang, this is Zhou Shao Bao's eldest son Zhou Hu Chen, and this is Vice General Mo Xian Cheng under Zhou Shao Bao. Please listen to Director Yang's arrangement!"

  The little official's task was to lead the two men to the armory, where they entered an office and he whispered a few words in the ear of Yang, the head of the armory. After introducing them, the little official bowed and left.

  Director Yang and Zhou Huchen and Mo Xiancheng exchanged a few pleasantries, the Minister's order was apparently very effective, Director Yang did not have any nonsense, led the two to come to the front of a huge warehouse door, then opened this arsenal of the Ministry of War.

  Zhou Huchen looked around and found that the warehouse was very large, and there seemed to be several more nearby. The first one opened was an armory, which was a cold weapon storage room. Row upon row of wooden racks were neatly arranged in the warehouse, with the weapons placed on top of them.

  "I've long admired your great reputation, General Hu! Since Minister Shang has agreed, you two just report what you've taken and I'll record it in the register!"

  This Director Yang seemed to have heard of Zhou Huchen, and Zhou Huchen's face was filled with surprise and delight. He had heard that he himself was quite something, and today he was going to go all out: "Director Yang knows Little Tiger, so Little Tiger won't be polite!" After speaking, Zhou Huchen took a step forward, and warmly grasped Director Yang's hand:

  Today I have the honor of meeting Master Yang, it's a great fortune for Xiaohu in three lifetimes. Please accept my respects, Master Yang!

  Yang Zhusi withdrew his hand with a calm and composed expression, a warm smile spreading across his face: "Who in the capital doesn't know of Tiger Young Master! Tiger Young Master has arrived at my humble abode, I'm honored for three lifetimes! I'm honored for three lifetimes!"

  Zhou Huchen's smile bloomed like a flower, because this Yang official had accepted the invitation he handed over, just one thousand two silver coins, which was nothing. Looking at the arsenal's goods, it was unknown how many good things could be obtained! This Ministry of War Arsenal was too tempting, and now Zhang Guowei gave him an opportunity, how could Zhou Huchen not smile?

  The warehouse is clean and well-managed, obviously someone sweeps it regularly. The only things in sight are the wooden racks and the wooden boxes on top of them, and the weapons seem to be inside the boxes.

  "What's inside is a knife, the best knife! Hu Shao only takes care of it..." Yang Zhuren got the benefit and no longer hesitated. He pointed to the wooden box in front of him and began to introduce:

  "Look! Look!"

  As soon as Zhou Huchen's voice fell, Yang Zhuren immediately waved his hand, and the two small officials guarding the warehouse door immediately entered the warehouse. Then, they quickly opened a wooden box.

  "This is a waist sword, an officer's waist sword!" Mo Xiancheng opened his mouth again and said with a smile:

  Not bad! Zhou Huchen's eyes also lit up, this is the real thing, a true waist knife. These knives are obviously more exquisite and heavier than those used by soldiers. The layered pattern on the blade indicates that it is a finely crafted good knife.

  "Five hundred shouldn't be too many for a young nephew like you?" Zhou Huchen asked with a smile.

  "Alright!" Yang Zhu Shi was in great pain. Zhou Hu Chen gave him some silver, five hundred taels wasn't excessive, and since the Minister had already agreed, he wouldn't go do something that would offend people.

  Director Yang waved his big pen, and 500 exquisite war knives were in hand.

  "This is the armor, the best mountain-patterned armor! There aren't many in stock either! Tiger, how about you take 200 sets? And this side... fish-scale armor, how about taking 200 sets too?" Yang Zhuren spoke up himself, seemingly afraid that Zhou Huachen would ask for too much, as these mountain-patterned and fish-scale armors were too expensive.

  The leaves are extremely thick and heavy, this is an absolute masterpiece! Zhou Huchen was considered to have arrived, he hastily responded: "Thank you, Lord Yang! I will follow your instructions, Lord Yang!"

  Then came spears, shields, bows and arrows...

  Everything in the Ministry of War's arsenal is indeed exquisite! It seems that this is the bottom line of the Ministry of War!

  "This is the armory, Young Master Hu, just take a look and let me know if you need anything!" He then opened another warehouse, and Yang began to introduce:

  "How about 5,000 catties of gunpowder?"

  "Tigers are scarce, this is too many! In our armory..."

  "Three thousand catties, isn't it a good look?! We have to consider Yang's dignity, after all!"

  "Alright! Alright! Just take it, Tiger!" Yang Zhuren began to feel a pang of heartache, these things were too valuable, but the Minister had spoken, and Zhou Huchen was also very understanding, so just take them! After all, these things didn't belong to him anyway.

  "Tiger crouching cannon is not bad, come with two hundred more..."

  "General Cannon also came up with two hundred, oh... and also divided into No. 1 and No. 2, then each came up with two hundred!"

  "This is a bird gun."

  "Never mind the bird gun! This thing is useless, where's the shotgun?!"

  "This rifle is still good! Let's get a thousand of them!"

  Yang Zhusi hastily spoke up: "There are only a thousand Lu rifle in this armory, and the Tiger is short..."

  "Then it's 800 rods! This should be enough! We have to leave some family property for the Minister and Yang!"

  After finishing, Zhou Huchen stretched out his hand again. Yang Zhuren seemed to understand that Zhou Huchen was quite capable, but the things he chose were too expensive. However... alright! Zhou Huchen handed him something again, and Yang Zhuren didn't say anything else. This was an order from the Minister himself! The things in the Ministry of War's armory naturally had to be decided by the Minister, and as a small Zhuren, he had to follow the Minister's orders!

  After nearly two hours, Zhou Huchen finally satisfied himself, and Yang Zhuren also finally let out a sigh of relief.

  "Tiger, this is the document signed by Lord Wen for receiving military equipment! As long as Secretary大人 agrees, we can send someone to pick it up on a designated day!" Yang Zhuren understood that they had lost big time this round. The good stuff was gone... but there was nothing to be done about it now that Zhou Huchen had gotten his hands on it. It was better to just pull in closer and build a relationship, who knows when this Tiger might come in handy again in the future.

  "Awesome! Tiger, how did you do it!" Mo Xiancheng was already excited and bewildered as he walked out of the Ministry of War's armory:

  "This is simply a matter of whether one will or won't do it! Uncle Cheng needn't ask, these things are actually just a kind of rule!"

  It's not that simple, without Zhang Guowei, Zhou Huchen wouldn't even be able to get into the Ministry of War's arsenal, let alone without silver. Those officials in charge of the armory wouldn't be so easy to talk to. That's just how it is! But without these...how would Zhou Huchen have gotten such a huge benefit? Alright! Actually, Zhou Huchen understood all this from his past life to his next life.

  "These equipment are too satisfying! I don't even dare to think about it! But the adults have come to ask us to go to war! Hu Zi, how can we explain this time?!"

  "Cheng Shu! You won't say that the Prime Minister doesn't allow us to go to war? Don't you understand this?"

  "But... this is obviously... a lie!"

  "Cheng Shu! What makes you rush to the front line? Don't you know the strength of Jian Nu's army? We have too many new recruits! Once the war starts, don't you know Father's temper? How many people will die? Is recruiting soldiers easy?! We won't be the scapegoats!"

  "This...!" Mo Xian was speechless. Zhou Huchen was right, but this young master was too black-hearted, not going to war yet taking advantage of the situation!

  "If Jian Nu loses, we'll send troops to pursue and attack! If Jian Nu wins, we'll be responsible for defending! We're about to go to Shanxi, the loss is too great, how can we stand firm in Shanxi?!" Zhou Huchen's reason was more than sufficient, not only sufficient but also endless: "Cheng Shu, if you don't want to say it, Xiao Hu will personally tell Father, just say it's the intention of the Minister of Works!"

  Mo Xian rolled his eyes and didn't say another word.

  You're awesome! Indeed worthy of being the renowned Tiger Junior in the capital! Thick-skinned enough! Black-bellied enough! Of course, the excuses you came up with are plenty too!
