Chapter 90

"I am foreign to these firearms . All I need is a slightly powerful handgun with a recoil that is not too strong . Also, its accuracy needs to be above average standard . "

"Any requirements for the range?" That man asked .

"I will be playing with it in the woods and reckon that a distance of tens of meters would be sufficient," Ren Baqian elaborated . He intentionally used the word "play" .

That man got up, took a black handgun from the shelf and placed it on the table . "This is the QSZ-92-5 . 8 . It should be able to fulfill your requirements .  A few days ago, someone actually included this handgun in the list of top ten guns . Although it is a rumor, this handgun is indeed pretty good . Moreover, it is cheap . The only shortcoming is that the cartridge might jam at times . "

[QSZ-92-5 . 8, made in China semi-automatic pistol designed by Norinco, using 5 . 8 mm caliber bullets]

"Apart from this model, are there any others?" Ren Baqian felt a little terrified upon hearing that the cartridge might get jammed . If by any chance he needed help and the cartridge suddenly jammed, he would not have the chance to cry anymore even if he wanted to .

"CZ83 from the Czech Republic . It's safe and reliable . There's the 9mm as well as the 7 . 62mm variation . " That man picked up another gun and placed it on the table .

[CZ83 - compact semi-automatic pistol made for the Czechoslovakian military, the CZ83 is a civilian export version of the original CZ82 . 7 . 62mm or 9mm caliber bullets can be used . ]

"What's the difference between the two?" Ren Baqian asked .

"The 9mm will be slightly more powerful, but its range will be shorter . "

Ren Baqian fiddled with the CZ83 . Every man would be interested in two things; cars and guns . Naturally, Ren Baqian wasn't an exception . In the past, he would have never expected that he would actually get the opportunity to possess a handgun of his own .

"This handgun will do, the 9mm one . Will the recoil of this handgun be too strong?" Ren Baqian asked immediately . In any case, he wasn't familiar with this stuff . As long as it was powerful, the recoil wasn't too strong, and was overall safe and reliable, it would be acceptable . Furthermore, he felt comfortable when he held the handgun .

"For a man, these are all nitty gritty details . " That man laughed .

Soon after, Ren Baqian displayed a shooting pose and then slapped his wrist upwards . "It should roughly be this amount of strength . "

Following which, Ren Baqian made a few other purchases which included a military crossbow, bullets, reserve magazines, arrows, a silencer, three hand grenades, and also a 20 centimeter long military knife .

Ren Baqian merely asked about what ran through his mind . He didn't expect that they actually sold grenades and bulletproof vests over here . In particular, grenades as they could not be bought as one pleased .

"Those sons of rich men always like new and fresh items . If n.o.body introduced you, you wouldn't be here either . " That man's unenthusiastic words made Ren Baqian understand that the customers of this place were all those kind of people . Originally, he still thought that it would be similar to television series whereby the main customers were people from the underworld . To his surprise, the customers were mainly the rich .

However, after thinking about it, it was actually better to sell these firearms to the rich than the underworld people . Firstly, they would be less likely to commit a crime . They also had a lot of money and were a safer bunch of people to sell to . The rich were only having fun and were afraid of breaking the law . Often, they were able to cover their own tracks as well .

Ren Baqian spent a sum of money and brought the items back to his car . While walking towards his car, he felt very scared and edgy, for fear that he would run into a traffic police officer that was checking for drunk drivers .

In the past, he never had to worry about running into the traffic police . But now, he had a load of prohibited items inside his car . If Ren Baqian was caught, then, the word disastrous would not even be sufficient to describe his situation .

Ren Baqian couldn't even imagine what the consequences would be if he travelled to and fro from the other world while being locked up in the detention center . He was very certain that would not have a good ending—very certain about it .

Fortunately, such a melodramatic thing did not happen .

Ren Baqian successfully brought all the firearms back to his apartment . Afterwards, he headed to the hospital to retrieve anesthetic which could be used with his military crossbow .

The following two days, he was fully immersed in practicing how to shoot at the shooting range .

While Ren Baqian was practicing his shooting in China, the empress was sitting in the palace, drinking a gla.s.s of wine . Soon after, the Seventh Prince was brought in to meet her .

"It's my pleasure to meet the empress of Dayao . " The Seventh Prince cupped one of his fists in the other hand . The other party was Dayao's empress and he was Great Xia's prince . As such, his etiquette towards her naturally wasn't too excessive .

Since the Seventh Prince's entrance, her gaze was fixed on his face .

"Why, does the empress of Dayao find me familiar?" The Seventh Prince smiled .

The empress used her fingers to tap on the wooden couch and did not speak . But, she somewhat straightened her body a little .

"You are not him, the way you speak is different," the empress took a sip of wine and replied .

"I am the Seventh Prince of Great Xia . " The Seventh Prince made his intention clear .

"Anyone, please bring the seat of honor for the guest," the empress's cold voice sounded, and immediately, someone placed a seat right in the middle of the palace . The Seventh Prince did not stand on ceremony and sat on the seat .

"What's your agenda in wanting to meet me?"

"I would like to exchange something with Dayao's empress . Using seven dragon scales in exchange for a bottle of blood . " The Seventh Prince grinned . This was his objective in coming to Dayao . As for the empress's birthday celebration, he absolutely did not care about it . If it wasn't because of the huge importance of the items he would like to exchange, he wouldn't even head to this wilderness .

Regardless of whether it was dragon scales or that bottle of blood, the value was extremely costly as far as he was concerned .

The empress did not even ponder the slightest bit and replied the Seventh Prince, "Not enough . "

Even though the dragon scales were of considerably high value and the empress would be able to use them, it was not sufficient for her to exchange them for a bottle of blood . The empress knew that the blood he wanted was the kirin's pure blood .

As the kirin's blood wasn't completely pure, the kirin would lose a lot of vital energy just by extracting a bottle worth of pure blood from it . It was also unknown how long would it take for the kirin to recover from this .

"These dragon scales are not the from the same dragon at Great Xia's palace . They were found in the surroundings at the same time that dragon was discovered . The aura of the real dragons which have become extinct, are actually contained in these dragon scales . " 

"Now, you are the one who's begging me for a favor . " The empress was rather tempted, but she still did not relent .

Although the dragon scales were useful, it was not something that the empress absolutely required . It was more than enough to prove the importance of the bottle of blood to the other party because a prince like him travelled more than a thousand miles away to Dayao for it .

The Seventh Prince had already predicted that such a scene would happen, and he was not all surprised . He then nodded his head and offered, "I'll throw in an additional drop of dried-up dragon blood that was discovered at the same time as the dragon scales . "

Only then did the empress nod .

If Ren Baqian overheard the transaction between the two of them, he would probably get a shock . In addition, he would once again re-evaluate how he felt about this world .

Previously when he had just arrived in this world, he managed to see a kirin . But, he never had the chance to see it again . This issue was being buried at the bottom of his heart . To his surprise, there were actually dragons in Great Xia . This proved that this world was much more profound than what he had always believed it to be .

"There's someone that I want as well," the Seventh Prince spoke again .

The empress knitted her brows .

"Not an aboriginal . It is someone whom is not at all important to you," The Seventh Prince added .

The empress recalled the face of that person who was identical to the Seventh Prince and laughed out loud suddenly . "Actually, I like your face a lot . I feel good every time I see it . How about this, you leave your head here with me, and then you take him away?"

The Seventh Prince was slightly stunned . It had never crossed his mind that the person was actually so important in the eyes of the Dayao's empress . He thought that a foreigner was insignificant when compared to the person standing right in front of her . That was actually a miscalculation on his part .

"Since the empress of Dayao wishes to keep him, I'll forget about it . The deal still stands," The Seventh Prince replied with a fresh smile on his face .

However, the empress's reply made him momentarily unable to move .

"No, I have changed my mind . I detest those who pry into my things . On the account that you are the prince of Great Xia, get lost!" the empress said as she waved her big sleeves while lying on the couch . The Seventh Prince instantly sensed a bout of terrifying aura hitting him on his face .

  

… . .

After quite some time, the Seventh Prince returned to the residence arranged by Dayao . His brows were tensed, and he felt a mixture of anger and confusion .

This deal had originally been settled .

But in the end, it was messed up as a result of me trying to demand for Ren Baqian .

Why did this happen? No matter how he tried to work it out, he could not understand why the empress made such a decision .

That was actually the scales and a drop of dried-up blood of an already extinct real dragon .

As far as this was concerned, it should be the most valuable treasure to the Dayao empress .

"Your Highness, did you not settle your business?" the beautiful lady by the name of Xiu Wu asked softly as she approached him .

The Seventh Prince ignored her and directly went into the house . His entire head was filled with why, and only why, did the empress make such a decision .
