Chapter 542 Buying a Gun

Director Smith was very upset today, smoking one cigarette after another, and the air of the entire power department was filled with a low-pressure atmosphere.

Anyone could see that the director was in a very bad mood today.

Because it was the weekend, the director only worked half a day, and he didn't even take the newspaper when he left.

The waste newspapers that had been sorted out were useless, and the cleaning lady finally took away the waste newspapers happily.

On the way home, Director Smith suddenly shouted to stop the car.

After getting off the car, he walked into the gun shop on the side of the road.

Director Smith is a cultured person. He is not very interested in this kind of thing. Today, he suddenly had a whim and went into the gun shop to have a look.

For more than a decade, the models of firearms have been varied, from standard rifles to large-caliber hunting rifles.

Director Smith looked around and finally fell in love with an exquisite revolver.

"Show this to me."

The boss was very happy. This kind of exquisite goods has a higher profit. Selling one is equivalent to selling five ordinary goods.

Moreover, Director Smith was well-dressed and looked rich.

"Sir, you have good eyesight. This gun is the 10th anniversary collector's edition. You only need six gold coins and 50 rounds of bullets."

Director Smith aimed awkwardly. Since there were no bullets in it, the boss let him fiddle with it.

He weighed it a few more times and it felt just right.

"Okay, I'll buy it. Will you take the gold coupon?"

"Yes, of course."

The boss checked Smith's ID with a smile, swiped it casually, and filled in the basic information.

In fact, the sale of guns is not strict at all. What is strict is the qualification to carry a gun.

Most people who buy guns can go out hunting, but they cannot carry guns in the city, and concealed carrying is even more impossible.

After paying, the boss specially took a wooden box to pack it.

This kind of rich customer is the most ideal customer.

"You can come to me for free maintenance twelve times a year. We can provide accessories, repairs, and bullets. We have the best service. Welcome to come again."

Such an easy business, without saying a word of extra nonsense, the boss happily sent Director Smith out.

When he saw the car with the mark of the Electricity Department driving away, he was still looking at the door: "It turned out to be a rich man from the Electricity Department. Haha, I made four gold coins."

When the car completely disappeared and the exhaust gas could not be seen after turning, the boss turned back.

But before he sat down, he heard the sound of the door being pushed open, and then a group of people walked in.

This kind of business must be guarded against. The boss took out a shotgun from under the counter and put it on the counter.

"Friend, what do you want to buy?"

"The Investigation Department is handling the case. Take out the registration book."

The man had a fierce face and a bad voice, as if he was suppressing his anger.

The gun shop owner was confused and subconsciously said: "I have reported this to the Public Security Bureau."

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Bring it here."

The man snatched the registration book and took a look. Fortunately, it was just a revolver.

But on second thought, what the hell?

A revolver can also kill people.

There won't be any accidents today, right?

"Who are you? I tell you that I opened the store not without background." The gun shop owner was still chattering.

In the background, the agent smiled grimly and opened the registration book: "The registration information is incomplete, close the shop!"

...

Director Smith didn't know that his casual purchase of a revolver would lead to a change of owner of the gun shop.

Before he went home, he took the revolver out of the box and put it on his waist, of course... without bullets.

Speaking of which, there was a reason why he was in a bad mood. His daughter, who had always been excellent, had a boyfriend quietly, which made it difficult for Mr. and Mrs. Smith to accept it for a while.

Let's not talk about the joke that the father is honored by the daughter. His daughter is so excellent. It would be strange if she could be happy to think that she was pushed by a pig.

He made up his mind to check it carefully today and buy a gun to test the other party's courage.

When he got home, the servant was already preparing dinner. Director Smith stretched his head to take a look. Fortunately, his daughter didn't come back.

When he entered the door, Mrs. Smith was no longer in the mood to read the newspaper. She sat alone in a daze.

It was too sudden. They had never heard of it before. Suddenly, a boyfriend appeared and came to visit. The two couldn't accept it for a while.

The key is that Claire is very tight-lipped, and they still don't know each other's background.

Mrs. Smith saw her husband coming back and asked with a worried look on her face: "I think... my daughter won't be deceived? The students in the university come from complicated sources. I don't want her to find a nobleman. I can accept that the family is a little poor, but don't let it be a liar who is attracted by your status."

If the two were still university professors, she would definitely not think so much.

But Smith is also a figure, and he is still tempting to ordinary people.

Smith himself was a little panicked, but he pretended to be calm and sat down. He rubbed the match several times but didn't rub it.

Smiled and changed one, Smith said: "It shouldn't be, Claire has always been opinionated and so smart, who can deceive her?"

The couple looked at each other and felt quite uneasy.

...

On the other side, Qin was also fidgeting. The narrow carriage space was very depressing. He tidied his clothes and adjusted his smile from time to time. The whole person was very unnatural.

They had seen each other many times in big occasions, but it was the first time that the prospective son-in-law came to the door.

In the final analysis, it’s because of your mentality that you need some experience.

Claire was very calm. At the critical moment, she grabbed Qin's hand and held it tightly.

"Don't worry, at most you can confess your identity and let them kneel down to receive the order."

Claire was obviously serious. Not to mention that the two of them were in love, even if they were not suitable, as long as the royal family recognized it, they had to be suitable.

Besides, she knew her parents and had always given her great freedom. They should not interfere... right?

Qin was relieved. He trusted Claire very much and thought that he would not encounter any difficulties when he came to the door.

It's just a meeting. Can the father-in-law point a gun at me?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

I heard that the father-in-law was a scholar, very scholarly, and most gentle.

Thinking of this, it seems that he is not nervous anymore.

A gentleman deceives others with his own way. Both the father-in-law and the mother-in-law are scholars. At most, they can interrogate a few questions. They can't use violence, right?

Qin quickly convinced himself and he was not nervous anymore.

When they arrived at Smith's house, the door was open and there were servants waiting at the door, showing the importance that the Smith family attached to their daughter's boyfriend.

It was just getting dark, and Qin held Claire's hand tightly, and walked down from the carriage as if to declare his sovereignty.

Director Smith couldn't help but walk into the yard after hearing the noise, and just saw the two of them walking down hand in hand.

Director Smith took a deep puff of his cigar, and his mood was complicated.
