Bright Sword: Starting from the Improved Grenade

In the room, after Li Yunlong left, the thugs walked in.

One of the thugs asked, "Boss, are these two guys reliable?"

"Whether it's reliable or not is none of our business, we just want to make money."

"Who are these two people? They are quite generous!"

Another thug asked curiously.

"At least he's not a businessman."

The short man played with the gold watch in his hand and said, "Old Third, go back and ask Third Aunt to send some people over."

"Brother, are you afraid that they will rob you?"

"It's better to be safe. Although we are doing a business with no capital, it would be embarrassing if we were cheated by a little devil by accident, right?"

"Brother is right. I will go back right away."

The third brother nodded, turned around and walked out of the room.

On the other side, Zhang Dabiao and Li Yunlong, who had just left the coal plant, had a headache.

"Captain, where can we find small yellow croakers? There isn't much money in the group right now."

Hearing this, Li Yunlong thought for a moment and said, "Let's go back first, and then ask around if there are any wealthy and unkind people around, and then we can start a plan to fight against the local tyrants and distribute the land."

"Captain, this is unacceptable! It's a violation of discipline!"

Zhang Dabiao became anxious.

"What can I do? Where can I get so many small yellow croakers for him in such a short time?"

Li Yunlong had no choice, although he could choose to rob the robbers when getting the goods.

He is not bragging. The New 1st Regiment is fully armed with Japanese weapons. Even if this gangster has Yan Laoxi's background, they can still easily deal with him. It's easy.

But Li Yunlong wanted to keep this trading point as much as possible so that they could continue to purchase goods from here in the future.

"But........"

Zhang Dabiao was still a little hesitant. It was easy to say "beat the local tyrants and divide the land", but that had to be under the leadership of the Party. Otherwise, who would know whether you were fighting the local tyrants or the enlightened landlords?

"Don't worry, let's go. We still have to go to town to buy other things."

Soon after buying several large pottery jars and some tools needed for forging from a small town.

Li Yunlong paid a deposit, rented a cart from the town, and he and Zhang Dabiao took turns as laborers to push the cart back to the small mountain village.

When Li Yunlong came back, Zhao Tianyang was teaching mathematics to the engineers in the factory.

Because it is a technical job, the people in the engineering platoon spend most of their time with Zhao Tianyang, and a small part of their time practicing physical strength and marksmanship with the people in the New 1st Regiment.

"Brother Tianyang, all your things are here. The ore will be brought back in two days. You can start the preliminary preparations."

Li Yunlong leaned on the cart, fanning himself with his hat as he spoke.

"Row."

Zhao Tianyang nodded, called Li Yun and asked him to put all the things in the warehouse.

"Would you like to drink some water? You are sweating profusely."

"No, I have something else to do."

After saying that, Li Yunlong took Zhang Dabiao and hurriedly left the arsenal.

"Send out all the reconnaissance companies. We must find a suitable target before dark tomorrow."

As soon as he returned to the ancestral hall, Li Yunlong gave instructions to Zhang Dabiao.

"understood."

Unable to twist the power of the opponent, Zhang Dabiao could only issue orders obediently.

After Zhang Dabiao left, Li Yunlong stood up and prepared to go talk to the old village chief to see if there were any bullies nearby who were rich and unkind and had caused great resentment among the people.

“Bully.”

The old village chief lowered his head and thought for a moment: "Speaking of which, there are bullies in the villages near us, and they are all useless..."

"Wait, not the bully kind. The powerful kind."

Li Yunlong interrupted quickly.

Those were all local thugs. If he was stationed there, he would have just dealt with them. But now he just ran over and beat others to death for no reason. What was that?

"That's all. We don't have any scholars in this poor and remote area. We don't even have a school to educate our little kids..."

Seeing that the old village chief was talking further and further away, Li Yunlong hurriedly said a few vague words of comfort and left.

The next night was a dark and windy night perfect for murder.

"Captain, why are we here to fight the rich at night?"

Outside a magnificent courtyard, Zhang Dabiao asked Li Yunlong in a low voice.

"It's nonsense. If you come during the day, they won't be all present. If you come at night, the whole family will be here."

Li Yunlong adjusted the mask on his face and said as a matter of course.

"I understand the reasoning, but the question is why do we still need to wear masks?"

"If we don't wear masks, they will know who we are!"

Li Yunlong's words made Zhang Dabiao stiffen: "Captain, let me ask you, are we here to fight the local tyrants and divide the land this time?"

"of course."

Li Yunlong looked at the sky and said, "Okay, stop talking nonsense, let's get moving. Remember to call me Boss Xie. We are the heroes of Black Cloud Village."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Dabiao and the other soldiers of the New 1st Regiment looked at each other. None of them were fools. Although Li Yunlong did not say it explicitly, those who understood understood, and those who did not understand would not understand even if Li Yunlong said it.

"What are you looking at? Follow me!"

Zhang Dabiao put on his mask and followed.

No wonder the captain asked him to lead the veterans of the New 1st Regiment. These people were most influenced by the captain and had no burden at all in doing this.

The Li family is a big landlord within a radius of thirty miles. Their ancestors produced three scholars and they have been domineering in Qingshan Village for many years. Today they are facing the coming of their strong opponent.

The soldiers of the new regiment were well-trained and worked in perfect harmony with each other. They subdued the guards in the manor in no time.

Then he took the list and broke the legs of those lackeys who were accomplices to the evil one by one.

Finally, he left with the Li family's accumulation of several lifetimes, and left a message saying that the heroes of Heiyun Village acted in the name of justice, and that the next time they heard that the Li family did something bad, it would not be solved by just money.

"Master, it must be those peasants who complained."

As soon as Li Yunlong and others left, a wealthy-looking woman dressed in jewels spoke hurriedly.

"Shut up and be careful next time."

There was a gleam of light in Master Li's eyes. Porcelain should not be allowed to touch earthenware jars. Before he could figure out a way to deal with this so-called Black Cloud Village, it was better to be cautious.

"Haha, the captain has made a fortune!"

Although Zhang Dabiao seemed worried before, he is now very excited.

Not only him, but even the other soldiers of the New 1st Regiment felt greedy when they looked at the sacks on their and their companions' backs.

"Everyone calm down and don't forget that we are the Eighth Route Army, the great liberation fighters, and the heroes who fought bloody battles for the new China and the Japanese invaders."

"This money is to be used to build weapons to fight against Japan."

Li Yunlong's deep and powerful voice immediately made everyone sober up. Everyone present was a veteran of the Eighth Route Army and it was impossible for them to give up their ideals for some money.

"Don't worry, Captain. I'm watching over you."

Zhang Dabiao quickly patted his chest and made the promise.

Hearing this, Li Yunlong smiled and said no more. He still understood the principle of "too much is as bad as too little". Moreover, even he was a little touched by the hundreds of taels of silver and dozens of taels of gold.

As the saying goes, money is a man's courage. Li Yunlong, who has money, is particularly tough in front of the short young man.

"We are all here for the sake of appearances, so we don't need to worry about those petty scheming people, right?"

Li Yunlong looked at the coal yard and saw more than a dozen thugs suddenly appearing. He was relaxed and not worried at all about the possibility of black-eating-black thugs.

"Hey, it's better to be safe for the first transaction."

The short young man laughed dryly.

"alright."

Li Yunlong waved his hand, signaling Zhang Dabiao to give the money.

After putting the small yellow croaker into his mouth and taking a bite, the short young man nodded with satisfaction, and at the same time waved his hand to let his men retreat.

"Come, come, Shopkeeper Li, you have come a long way, come and have a cup of tea to moisten your throat."

Facing the short young man's enthusiastic greeting, Li Yunlong waved his hand and said, "Forget it. I have something else to do."

"Ok."

Soon the short young man brought Li Yunlong to a warehouse in the coal yard.

"The things are all here. I don't care how you take them away."

Seeing this, Li Yunlong signaled Zhang Dabiao to call for help. A moment later, soldiers from the new regiment appeared outside the coal yard pulling carts.

Looking at these young men with crew cuts, each of them full of imposing manner, the short young man felt a little scared, but fortunately these people were still well-behaved.

"Manager Li, let's continue our cooperation next time if there is a chance."

Outside the coal yard, the short young man said to Li Yunlong and others who were about to leave.

"Don't worry, there's a chance."

Li Yunlong nodded with a smile.

I don’t know if I should pay you next time we cooperate, Li Yunlong thought secretly.
