After finishing her meal, Xu Zhaoyue and Yue Lanxing went to the storeroom together. They agreed to clear out a room to store these things. The storeroom was built in the woods, surrounded by tall trees, providing shade even during the day.
"The quality is excellent. The Han family keeps its promises." Xu Zhaoyue stroked the gun barrel with satisfaction, looking at the brand-new weapons in the box. This is the foundation of their confidence. No wonder the Han family is so renowned.
“Every single gun has been checked and they’re all in good condition. There are so many bullets that each box was also randomly checked.” Yue Lanxing walked to the side and opened the box containing the bullets.
Xu Zhaoyue reached into the box, scooped some up, lifted it up, and then released it. Bullets clattered into the box, making a particularly pleasant sound, with a faint smell of gunpowder.
"We must be careful to prevent fires when these things are placed here, so that nothing goes wrong." Xu Zhaoyue knew that they usually paid attention to these things, but with so many new items, they definitely had to be more careful than before.
Yue Lanxing also knew this was important, but the current person in charge of the warehouse was still Xu Dachuan, along with those people Xu Dachuan relied on. "That's for sure, but Brother Xu has put his subordinates in charge here, so I can't get involved for the time being."
"Xu Dachuan? He's an old man in the Xu family. What? His men only listen to him and not me?" Xu Zhaoyue's words were ambiguous, but Yue Lanxing was certain that if Xu Dachuan wasn't one of the young lady's people, then the young lady would definitely not protect him.
“It’s not a matter of whether he listens or not. After all, he was the one who recruited me. Our batch has only been here for a few months, and I just became the housekeeper. It’s understandable that he ignores us.”
Yue Lanxing spoke casually, but those who now respect his position as steward are the ones who fought in the warehouse every night to prove their worth; true strength is revealed through fists.
"Is Li Qi bored lately? Go and find him to help out. If you can win him over, try to bribe him. If not, tell them to get lost as soon as possible." Xu Zhaoyue's words were sharp, even though Xu Dachuan was usually very respectful to her.
Xu Zhaoyue's intention to cultivate her own power within the Xu family is quite obvious, but only Yue Lanxing and Xiao Nan can sense it up close. Xiao Nan always puts her mistress first, and even if Xu Zhaoyue does something terrible, she can still hand her a gun from the side.
As for Yue Lanxing, Xu Zhaoyue looked at her with great interest, as Yue Lanxing showed no surprise at her order. "What do you think of my idea?"
“Miss’s idea is certainly good. I’ll go find Li Qi later. He usually gets along well with the bodyguards, so he should be able to come up with a better solution.” Yue Lanxing started by seriously explaining her thoughts, but as she spoke, she realized something was amiss.
"Actually, I've already established good relations with the people Miss met yesterday. If they can bring guns, they'll be a considerable force. If we can settle things with the gang before the master returns, we can not only subdue Tashiro's former underlings, but also have our own territory. That territory is near a major transportation route, so Miss's pharmaceutical factory can transport goods from there."
Yue Lanxing didn't look at Xu Zhaoyue's perspective, but silently uttered rebellious words, saying that he had to get these things done before the master returned, which was enough to show that he understood Xu Zhaoyue's thoughts.
