Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 1257 Le Miao's Telegram, Director Qin Teaches You How to Use a Handgun! (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets)
"Um... Brother Fang, where did you get your gun and bullets?" Xiao Zhang asked Fang Yan.

"This is what happened..."

Fang Yan then briefly explained the matter of the guns and bullets, and also clarified that Director Liao had asked him to come and register.

Xiao Zhang smiled and said to the dialect, "If you want to register a firearm here through the normal procedure, you need to fill out a 'Firearms Registration Form' first, clearly stating the source of the firearm, its model, and the quantity of ammunition. It also needs to be signed and stamped by your unit leader."

He paused, then pointed to the bag on the table and added, "But Brother Fang, your situation is special! Since this gun was specially approved and issued by Director Liao as a self-defense weapon, and he specifically asked you to register it, we can handle it as a special case."

As he spoke, Xiao Zhang opened his handbag to inspect it:
"Let me check the ammunition first."

"Are you sure that's all we have right now?"

Fang Yan nodded.

Xiao Zhang, carrying the bag, said:

"Sure! I'll fill out the registration form for you; you just need to sign it at the end. I'll issue the registration number on the spot; it'll be done in five minutes!"

He turned to his colleague and said, "Xiao Shen, quickly bring the registration book and the official seal! And pour Brother Fang a cup of tea."

"It's so hot outside, you can just sit down and rest for a while. We'll take care of the errands!"

After a while, Xiao Zhang finished what he needed to do.

Then he handed over the gun, bullets, certificate, and gun license to Fang Yan.

"Thank you so much. I'm so glad I ran into you guys today, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get this done," Fang Yan said, expressing her gratitude to Xiao Zhang who gave her the green light.

“Hey, we’re all old acquaintances. You’re practically one of our own people,” Xiao Zhang said to Fang Yan.

Last year, Fang Yan not only trained trace evidence experts for the Municipal Bureau, but also helped them catch enemy agents.

Many people consider dialects as their own.

So he was quite quick when it came to getting things done. After finishing his business, he took the gun home. Although he had already registered, he didn't plan to carry the gun with him unless there was a problem.

He even had to lock this thing up to prevent the kids in the house from finding it and causing trouble.

There are quite a few children in this courtyard during the summer vacation, especially Zeng Yuxun from Zeng Wanli's family. Now that he's gotten to know them well, he's become incredibly mischievous.

Fang Yan has finally experienced what it's really like to have an ordinary, unruly child around.

Fortunately, Zhengyi was not corrupted by him, and although Zhengyi was not as old as him, he had been learning martial arts from Fang Yan for so long that he could easily suppress the naughty child.

When Fang Yan got home, his wife told him that another telegram had arrived from Hong Kong.

“It was Le Miao who sent it to you,” she emphasized.

Upon hearing this, Fang Yan casually asked:

"What did you say?"

Zhu Lin said:

"I didn't open it to check, you can see for yourself."

Fang Yan was both amused and exasperated. His wife was now in her late pregnancy, with only thirty-odd days left until she gave birth, and her temper had changed quite a bit.

Fang Yan said to her:
"It's nothing shameful, just look."

Zhu Lin shook his head:
"I don't want to see it, take it apart yourself."

Fang Yan shrugged and said:

"Fine, fine, I'll dismantle it myself."

Fang Yan didn't go anywhere else to open it; he opened it right in front of Zhu Lin. The contents inside were very simple.

"We made money again," Fang Yan said.

Zhu Lin asked curiously:
"Really?"

He handed the contents of the telegram to Zhu Lin:

"See for yourself, it's money earned from investing in stocks using your royalties."

Upon seeing the contents of the letter and discovering that his assets had appreciated, Zhu Lin exclaimed in admiration:
"She's amazing."

Fang Yan said to his wife:
"This inside information is amazing. It was given to her by Guo's daughter. All she had to do was invest money and she was guaranteed to make a profit."

"But this isn't information that just anyone can get; she must be incredibly resourceful to make money from it." Fang Yan felt that regardless of the era, information asymmetry is always a great way to make money.

As long as most people don't know and a few people do, this information gap can be used to make money.

Zhu Lin put down the telegram in his hand and asked Fang Yan:

"Do you think... I should buy her something to thank her?" Fang Yan raised an eyebrow:

"No need?"

Hong Kong has everything now, but I really don't know what Le Miao is still lacking in terms of dialect. If he buys something too expensive, he'll feel bad about the money; if he buys something too cheap, people won't like it.

At the end of the year, we'll just give her a share of the profits based on how much she earned.

However, Zhu Lin has a different opinion on this.

She said:
"Yes, yes, they've been working so hard, we definitely need to show our appreciation. A small gift carries great meaning, right? Help me think of something suitable to buy?"

Fang Yan shrugged:

"do not know……"

He really doesn't know.

Zhu Lin said:

"Then I'll go ask Wong Wai-kit; she'll definitely know what's good to send to Hong Kong right now."

"Okay." Fang Yan thought that Huang Huijie was indeed the most suitable person to ask for this, mainly because she was knowledgeable and knew what kind of gift would be appropriate.

After Zhu Lin went to find someone, Fang Yan locked the guns and bullets in a hidden corner of the study.

The results of the postgraduate entrance examination will be released in the next few days, and then it will be clear how many people are in Fang Yan's class and who they are.

I don't know what kind of graduate-level teaching I'll be able to receive then.

The dialect is quite looking forward to this.

He was confident that he could pass the exam; if he couldn't pass, there must be something fishy going on.

There are rumors circulating that the original plan of one class will be changed to two classes.

At that time, Yue Meizhong will lead one class, and Ren Yingqiu will lead another class.

However, these are all hearsay, and their authenticity has not yet been confirmed.

If it's true that they were divided into two classes, then it means something: the number of students enrolled this time is much larger than the number of students in the original history of the dialect.

If we were only accepting eighty or so people before, now it's likely to be over one hundred and sixty, or even two hundred.

After all, many people have made significant progress with the guidance of the dialect, and many have come to thank the dialect after the exam.

Tao Guangzheng was able to be summoned by Fang Yan immediately because he felt that he had completed the postgraduate entrance examination thanks to Fang Yan's help.

Just as Fang Yan was thinking of taking a break today, the phone rang again. Fang Yan answered the phone, and a voice came from the other end:
"Hey, Fang Yan, this is Qin Nong! I just heard Xiao Zhang say...you registered for a gun license?"

Fang Yan was taken aback, then said:

"Yes, Director Qin, it was Xiao Zhang who handled it for me."

"Any questions?"

Qin Nong asked:

Have you ever fired a gun? I mean a handgun.

Masturbation?
"When I was a sent-down youth, I trained with the village militia and fired rifles," Fang Yan said with a strange expression.

Qin Nong said:

"So you haven't trained yet!"

"You need to go through a safety shooting training session! Come here and I'll teach you!"

The deputy director of the municipal police bureau will personally teach you how to use a handgun?

Wow, that's quite impressive. Dialect really doesn't enhance one's shooting skills with a handgun.

Since Qin Nong was going to personally train him, Fang Yan immediately said:

"Okay, should we go directly to the Municipal Bureau or the firing range?"

Qin Nong said:

"Come to the Municipal Bureau, there's a new indoor shooting range here! And since there are leaders here, you can also help them with their medical needs!"

Huh? Fang Yan was taken aback. Good heavens! They were waiting for him here.

P.S.: That's all for today. Please come early tomorrow.
