Chapter 534 A Refined Young Lady from the Republican Era Gets the Male and Female Protagonists Killed (36)

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

The people who had been chatting and laughing suddenly fell silent, watching the scene before them with vigilance and caution.

The muzzle of a gun is always pointed at the enemy.

General Liu's actions were clearly a show of defiance against Jiangbei Tower.

Everyone present was shrewd; everyone understood what Commander Liu's actions meant.

Despite being a warlord, he was constantly constrained by Jiang Beilou, a businessman, in BH City.

Elsewhere, chambers of commerce were the private banks of warlords, who could borrow as much as they wanted and take whatever they wanted, since the warlords had guns.

Those who have guns are the bosses; those who have guns have the right to speak.

But BH City is different.

The chambers of commerce here all control the arms and military industry business.

In particular, the North Tower Chamber of Commerce directly joined forces with foreigners to monopolize more than 70% of the weapons business in BH City.

This forced all the warlords who had entered BH City to cower before the Chamber of Commerce like grovelers.

How could the ambitious Marshal Liu possibly tolerate this?

He came to occupy territory and expand his own sphere of influence, not to be someone else's lackey.

That's why he invested so much manpower, resources, and energy into the research and development and production of weapons.

He has finally figured out the latest German gun, which is already famous and much better than the popular guns in China.

Having weapons gives us confidence.

When faced with Jiang Beilou's aloof and arrogant demeanor, Commander Liu could no longer tolerate it.

Since we can't tolerate it, we should let it out in front of all the powerful people in BH City.

What does "killing the chicken to scare the monkey" mean?

Isn't that it?

Commander Liu laughed heartily, his gun still pointed at Jiangbei Tower.

"Want me to fire a shot to show you?"

Jiang Beilou, with a gun pointed at him, remained calm and even smiled slightly.

"I know the Mauser C96 pistol. It's a very powerful gun, and it's definitely much better than the ones currently on the market."

General Liu's laughter grew even more arrogant.

"Hahaha, as expected of Chairman Jiang, your information network is excellent. This gun was only recently developed in Germany, and I didn't expect you to know about it."

Hahahaha, but I'm really curious, Chairman Jiang has always been the leader of BH City, so why is he lagging behind me this time?

Could it be because my men are more capable than Chairman Jiang's men?

At this point, Zhao Hanying was already standing confidently and upright beside Commander Liu.

She deserves irreplaceable credit for the successful development of this gun.

She never expected that Commander Liu would use this gun against Jiang Beilou.

Given this situation, what will Jiangbeilou do next?

This is good, as it will also make Chairman Jiang realize how important it is to have a smart woman by his side.

What help could a woman like Jin Shu possibly offer him?

What else could a useless feudal woman do besides binding her feet?

Jiang Beilou will definitely regret this now.

——

In the tense atmosphere, Commander Liu kept twirling the gun in his hand. Just as the muzzle was repeatedly pointed at Jiang Beilou, Jin Shu, who was sitting next to him, silently handed him the contents of her handbag.

"Here's a little something for you, Chairman Jiang."

Jiang Beilou felt a chill in his palm, and when he looked down, he saw a silver gun in his hand.

And the appearance of this gun was exactly the same as the one in Commander Liu's hand.

He had also studied Mauser pistols and immediately recognized it as a genuine product as soon as he held it in his hands.

Jiang Beilou glanced sideways at Jin Shu, who smiled faintly at him and nodded.

So, just as Commander Liu was making his big provocations, Jiang Beilou calmly pulled a gun out of his pocket and pointed it at Commander Liu as well.

"Has Commander Liu finished his demonstration? If so, then it's my turn."

"What a coincidence! I have a Mauser pistol too, Commander Liu. Take a look, is it the same as the one you have?"

After speaking, the man gently stroked the texture on the surface of the gun with his fingertip. The gun looked exactly the same, but in the sunlight, the gun in Jiang Beilou's hand looked more exquisite and heavier than Liu Dashuai's.

Upon seeing the gun in Jiang Beilou's hand, Commander Liu's arrogant smile instantly vanished by more than half.

His gaze held a hint of surprise and disbelief, but he quickly regained his composure, suppressing his emotions with a chuckle.

"The gun in Chairman Jiang's hand does look quite similar to mine."

Jiang Beilou smiled, pursing his lips.

"They're all Mauser pistols, so it's normal that they look similar."

"You also have a Mauser pistol... So which expert did you have made it?"

The only expert in the world with this skill is now in his hands.

Therefore, Commander Liu had reason to suspect that Jiang Beilou was deliberately bluffing him.

"There are so many gun-making experts in the world, and my Beilou Chamber of Commerce alone has more than a dozen. Why is the commander suddenly interested in this?"

What? It's just a Mauser C96 pistol that's almost obsolete in Germany. You're allowed to have it, but I'm not?

Jiangbei Tower always remained calm and composed, sitting calmly amidst the mountains and seas, his expression unchanged.

Therefore, no one dares to play tricks on him in the business world, because he can see through all your thoughts, but you can't see through his.

General Liu now deeply understands this point.

That is, even though he knew that he was the only one in the country who had the new Mauser pistol, he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart when faced with Jiang Beilou's confident and composed appearance.

"Since that's the case, why don't we have a competition while everyone's here?"

Whether it's true or false, you'll know once you try.

Jiang Beilou tilted his head slightly and glanced at Jin Shu.

Their eyes met, and Jin Shu simply smiled slightly. Jiang Beilou smiled gently in response, and when he turned back, he said calmly.

"Then let's have a competition."

"Today is my mother's birthday banquet. She likes a shooting game that we play in my army camp. It involves a person standing still with a target placed on their head, in their hands, and between their legs. Whoever hits the most targets wins."

Is it okay?

Only a madman like Commander Liu, who's willing to risk everything, could come up with such a tactic of playing with live targets.

Jiang Beilou remained silent; Commander Liu had already made the arrangements.

"You, and you, both of you go stand there."

The two were servants in the warlord's mansion, both teenagers. Suddenly being used as live targets, they stood there holding apples, their whole bodies trembling uncontrollably.

This increases the difficulty.

People can lose control and become unruly when they are nervous or afraid.

Not to mention those two young girls who are both timid and lack courage.

Jiang Beilou squinted and glanced at Commander Liu.
