"When it comes to arms trading, no one in Shanghai has a better background than our Fujiwara Corporation. What do you think?!"

After hearing Fujiwara no Asano point out the issue of arms, Charles actually felt relieved.

"Oh, my friend, if you want to buy arms, it would be wisest to cooperate with me!"

"My company imports a large number of weapons from the United States and Europe. Whatever you want, we have it here."

"Even if you want to buy heavy artillery, tanks, or something like that, as long as you can afford it, I can find a way to ship it to Shanghai for you! Tell me what kind of weapons you need, and we'll give you a specific quote!"

When it comes to his business, Charles is quite confident.

His company has some connections with the U.S. military, U.S. logistics department, and European arsenals.

He could get those weapons from the United States and Europe that were not the most advanced at a very low price.

And those cheap weapons that have been eliminated or stored in the United States and Europe can be sold at ten times the price once they are shipped to China, whose military is backward.

At present, China is suffering from the invasion of the Japanese army. Now staying in Shanghai and privately trading these arms is a good business with huge profits.

The only thing that worried Charles was the Japanese attitude towards him.

Once the Japanese cracked down on his arms smuggling business, he would probably find it difficult to stay in Shanghai and would have to move to another coastal city and start over from scratch.

So in order to continue running his arms smuggling business in Shanghai, Charles actually wanted to have Fujiwara no Asano as his backer.

So in the conversation with Fujiwara no Asanobu, Charles always maintained a humble attitude, and he did not intend to sell the arms too expensively, just to make friends with Fujiwara no Asanobu first.

Shen Yutang saw that Charles was relatively honest and dutiful when facing her.

He then directly stated the type of weapon he wanted to purchase.

"Mr. Charles, forget about heavy artillery and tanks. Even if I dared to buy these big guys, I wouldn't be able to sell them."

"Well, I need some light and heavy machine guns, enough bullets, some American grenades, and a large amount of explosives, detonators, and other more powerful weapons."

"I don't know if you have any stock here right now. I want to pick it up today."

Now in the entire office, only Shen Yutang and Charles were having a secret conversation about the arms.

The Japanese military police and Japanese samurai who were protecting Shen Yutang all stayed outside the office door.

At this time, Shen Yutang did not have to worry too much when discussing the arms business with Charles.

As a private arms dealer, Charles would not be foolish enough to tell everyone in the world what weapons and ammunition the Fujiwara Corporation bought from him.

Obviously, these weapons will most likely be resold to the White Party by Fujiwara Corporation, and Charles does not want to cause unnecessary trouble to Fujiwara Asahi and himself.

"Light and heavy machine guns, as well as American grenades, right? These things are no problem. I have quite a few in my warehouse, and I'll give President Fujiwara a discount!"

"As for explosives and detonators, I do have some here, but the quantity isn't much, only about a few hundred kilograms. Do you think this is enough?"

Several hundred kilograms of explosives and detonators are enough to blow up ten counterfeit money printing workshops.

Shen Yutang didn't intend to use these explosives to fight on the front line. A few hundred kilograms were more than enough to use them up.

Knowing that Charles had misunderstood her and would sell these arms to the White Party troops fighting on the front line, Shen Yutang did not explain too much to him.

"A few hundred kilograms is enough. Then sell me all the light and heavy machine guns you have, as well as all the machine gun ammunition! I also want the explosives, detonators, and grenades!"

"I want as many of these things as you have. Mr. Charles, just give me a price!"

Before coming to Charles to buy arms, Shen Yutang used the remaining more than 100,000 merit points to significantly upgrade his space.

In one go, the primary space was upgraded to the advanced level, and the area of ​​the space also increased to about 5,000 cubic meters.

Such a large space is enough to hold all the arms purchased this time, and Shen Yutang is not worried that these arms will be discovered by the Japanese army.

When Charles heard that President Fujiwara Asagi was going to buy all the light and heavy machine guns, all the machine gun bullets, and all the explosives and grenades in his hands, he immediately showed a happy expression.

"Hahaha, President Fujiwara is really straightforward. I can't sell it too high, or it will hurt our relationship."

"Well, I have about a thousand light machine guns, fifty heavy machine guns, five hundred thousand rounds of machine gun ammunition, five hundred boxes of grenades, and eight hundred kilograms of explosives and detonators!"

"How about selling all of these to you for $180,000?"

Hearing Charles quote a price of 180,000 US dollars, Shen Yutang also knew that he did not quote a high price to her.

Logically speaking, it is entirely possible that these arms could be sold for more than 200,000 US dollars in Shanghai.

But it is obvious that Charles really wants to give up tens of thousands of dollars in profit in order to befriend President Fujiwara Asahi.

Since the price was right, Shen Yutang didn't bargain with Charles anymore and readily accepted his offer.

"Well, this price is fair for purchasing these weapons. I will send someone to deliver the money later."

"Give me a delivery note for the weapons and ammunition, and I'll send someone to pick them up in the evening."

Of course, Charles was not worried that Fujiwara no Asahi would default on his debt, because he was the only black market dealer in the whole of Shanghai who could obtain such a large quantity of arms.

Unless Fujiwara no Asanobu doesn't plan to do business with him next time.

Coming to his desk, Charles issued a delivery note for Shen Yutang from their company's warehouse.

As for the things above, they will of course still be labeled as various kinds of food.

This is how the smuggling of arms works. There are some unspoken rules that are always known to everyone.

In this office, Shen Yutang nominally only reached a grain deal with Charles.

Even the Japanese military police who came with Shen Yutang to protect her this time, and the samurai bodyguards raised by the Fujiwara family, thought that President Fujiwara Asano had bought a batch of food.

In the evening, Shen Yutang sent someone to deliver a silver draft of 180,000 US dollars to Charles.

As for the purchased weapons and ammunition, Shen Yutang disguised himself and went directly into the warehouse in the name of a member of Fujiwara Corporation.

After sending the guard Qian to guard the warehouse, Shen Yutang stored all the weapons in the warehouse into the space.

That night, Shen Yutang placed all the materials Wen Yichang needed to make a time bomb in the basement of the villa in the French Concession.

While Wen Yichang started making time bombs, Liao Xiuya also successfully applied for a female position at the "Yongfeng Food Packaging Factory."
