Chapter 108 Firearms
When the other party was about to leave, Yan Xu suddenly remembered something and called him to stop.

"I want to buy some pistols for self-defense. Where can I buy them nearby?" Yan Xu asked, fearing that continuing to hack people would make his situation worse, and because guns did have a greater deterrent effect.

"The hotel has firearms to choose from, including pistols, shotguns, rifles, and styles from all over the world." The lobby manager's eyes lit up. You know, he gets commission, so he answered very positively.

Yan Xu was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that the times and environment were different now, so for the safety of the guests, it would be reasonable for the hotel to sell guns, so he nodded.

After a while, a middle-aged man who looked serious and rigid came in with two sturdy white men with obvious military experience, pushing two heavy carts.

The other party was not good at talking. Yan Xu only knew that he was a German named Schmidt, and was also a gun designer. So if he was not satisfied with the gun he bought, he could pay him to modify it.

Lifting the dust cloth on the cart revealed guns of all sizes, but mostly handguns suitable for carrying, and shotguns for hunting. There were very few rifles because they were inconvenient to carry and not very useful.

What's more, those who can afford to stay in a hotel of this level will never have the chance to use a rifle in their life.

Schmidt put on white gloves and professionally took out several classic pistols for him to choose from, which made Yan Xu speechless.

With its ivory handle, gold-plated barrel, and exquisite patterns, it is more of a work of art than a gun.

Yan Xu did not let the other party take them away directly, because these were all handmade fine products, each one was unique and very collectible.

After looking through them, Yan Xu first picked out a classic Browning M1900 pistol. This gun has a compact structure, is only the size of a palm, and can be easily hidden in a pocket.

The disadvantage is that it only has a capacity of eight rounds and an effective range of only thirty meters. It is okay for self-defense, but it is not enough for combat.

But this pistol is very beautiful. The silver-plated gun body is engraved with an angel holding a trumpet, and the cross on the handle is inlaid with tiny gems, shining in the sun, like a beautiful lady.

In addition, Yan Xu also took a fancy to a pair of revolvers customized by a customer. It was difficult to tell the model and style, but one could only judge from the appearance that they were large-caliber revolvers, so the magazine could only hold five bullets. However, the power was amazing and could smash a bull's head with one shot. Even rhinos and elephants would probably not be able to withstand a single shot.

The only problem was that the recoil was too strong. The customer only test fired the gun once, and that hand could only be used to shoot his own pistols for the rest of his life.

Therefore, these two pistols have only been gold-plated and have not undergone the next step of engraving and inlaying, so they are semi-finished products.

"Have you heard of Guan Gong?" Yan Xu suddenly asked.

Schmidt?
After deciding to buy these three works of art, Yan Xu also ordered a batch of silver bullets. Schmidt was not surprised by this. In order to show off their wealth, people used gold as the bullet heads, so silver bullets were not uncommon.

These are collectibles. If they are to be used in combat, Yan Xu naturally chose a Mauser pistol, and one with a large magazine.

Unfortunately, by the time he learned how to disassemble and maintain the gun, it was already late. Otherwise, Yan Xu would have tried to see if holding the gun flat during full-automatic shooting could really produce a fan-shaped sweep.

After the other party left, Yan Xu wiped the gun for a long time until it was shiny, then loaded the bullets and placed it carefully on the bedside table, making sure the muzzle was facing outwards.

There was also a large-caliber double-barreled shotgun, also loaded with bullets and placed aside.

The gun was only an unexpected gain for Yan Xu in this world. His main purpose was to find a true method of cultivation and a famous teacher. However, this was not easy, especially since he had offended the Qing Gang as soon as he arrived.

The Green Gang started out as a canal transport company, and later switched to sea transport during the Qing Dynasty. However, the Green Gang did not decline because of this. Instead, it began to get involved in lucrative industries such as arms smuggling, and thus grew stronger, making warlords from all over the country give them some face, especially in the Magic City, where it was known as the largest gang.

Although Yan Xu only killed some small figures in the Qing Gang, gang members are most afraid of losing face, because once they lose face, they will be considered to be on the decline, and who knows how many challengers will emerge, so it’s not a big deal, but it’s very troublesome.

Of course, Yan Xu can pay foreigners to come forward, such as the owner of this hotel. As long as the other party is willing to come forward, the Qing Gang will have to give face. After all, the biggest thing in Magic City has never been the gangs or the government, but these foreign masters.

By the time Yan Xu holds a banquet to apologize, the matter will be over, and the two parties may become friends after a fight and start a business selling stockings together.

The problem is that Yan Xu almost died at the hands of the other party twice, and afterwards he was asked to bow his head and apologize. How could he swallow this?

It doesn't matter if you don't have the ability, but if you don't bow your head you will die, and you have to swallow it even if you don't want to.

But now he has all the abilities, if he chooses to bow his head again, then why did he work so hard to train?
He suffered so much and endured so much pain just to make the unreasonable choice sit down and reason with him calmly.

Now Yan Xu has begun to understand why those masters would kill people over trivial matters. It is because they are very capable, have bad tempers, and are even more irritable. If they are not satisfied with something, they think that the other party looks down on them and deserves to be killed.

Anyway, he can kill without having to bear any serious consequences, so why not kill?

Yan Xu knew that this was wrong, but he just couldn't help it, otherwise why would he buy so many bullets?
"The problem of character must be solved as soon as possible." Yan Xu's face did not look very good, because he knew very well that the more people he killed, the more serious his condition would become, but he could not change it. No wonder there was such a thing as being possessed by a demon.

Over the next few days, Yan Xu kept getting familiar with the gun and practicing his aim.

Because of his excellent physical fitness, his marksmanship improved greatly in a short period of time.

When using a rifle, one needs to consider issues such as wind direction, but this is not necessary for a pistol. Within a few dozen meters, the difference between superiority and inferiority, as well as life and death, all depends on who is faster and more accurate.

Yan Xu's strong physical fitness and current super stable mentality make his gun-drawing speed comparable to some famous quick shooters. What's more amazing is that he can almost ignore the problem of recoil, so he is faster and more accurate.

After becoming familiar with firearms, Yan Xu began to ask Caihuashe to inquire about martial arts schools, preparing to become an apprentice and learn martial arts, while also using this opportunity to test the reaction of the Qing Gang.

Yan Xu didn't think that Ge Erdan would keep his affairs secret. He was afraid that from the moment he showed up at the dock to the moment he checked into the hotel, everything had been laid out on the Qing Gang's desk that day, and they had already discussed several rounds of how to deal with him.

Unfortunately, the concession is almost the same as a safe zone, and this high-end hotel opened by the British is even a no-weapons zone. If the Green Gang dares to take action here, the British will surround the Green Gang's lair with guns and even destroy the Green Gang's smuggling routes. The Green Gang cannot afford this price.

But if he leaves the taxis, then the Green Gang's opportunity will come.

The question now is what the Qing Gang plans to do.
