Chapter 549: Advance

"Sir, look at this."
Liang Hui told someone to open a large iron box with more than a dozen red steel hand armors. The joints used steel nails to connect leather and iron parts. A gold dial was installed at the elbow. Two steam pipelines run through the entire arm and are embedded. Wrist ring armor. Full of metal.
The worker used a carving knife to open the shell and signaled Liang Hui and Li Yan the hot pot-shaped triathlon and steam turbine in operation.
"This is a hand part of an active duty steam guard. It is old and can't be seen without careful inspection. It can operate independently. There is no arms dealer in San Francisco that sells complete soldier equipment, so we can only have one. It ’s been a long time together, and it ’s almost ready.

Li Yan picked up the hand armor and tried to wear it.
Liang Hui's eyes narrowed and he hurried forward to add: "Although this hand armor is not equipped with firepower equipment, it is very sturdy, and it can greatly enhance the user's arm strength after starting the steam ball."
"What do you buy these things for?"
"In just two days after the new bill was promulgated, Hesheng received at least one thousand homeless compatriots from various places. They used to build railways, mines, plant crops, grow fruits and vegetables, and do business in small businesses. Now it has been expelled, opened up, or even killed for no reason. The Chinatown in Hesheng is the largest gathering place of Chinese in San Francisco. There have also been two huge riots and fires. We need to defend ourselves. "
Li Yan nodded: "Very reasonable concerns. So what are you asking me to do?"
Liang Hui peeped at Li Yan's face: "I joined the other halls, as well as the Chinese merchants of the Chinese General Assembly Hall, to organize a large-scale Ge Ge campaign. I also went on strike against railway companies and major factories, so I wanted to ask Mr. opinion."
"This is not a question for me to intervene. After all, this is your home."
Liang Hui blinked, and he always felt that Li Yan's words were a little bit sloppy, but not for himself.
"But ..." Li Yan turned his head. "You may be in trouble."
Liang Hui frowned: "What?"
A sudden sirens sounded suddenly on the street. Several clockwork flying spheres took the lead, followed by a sturdy, noisy steam car. Liang Hui went straight to the door of Liang Hui's house.
Li Yanrao rubbed his right armband with interest, but Liang Hui's face sank suddenly.
Heavy footsteps rang out, and several Pinkerton agents dressed as guards stood alone, and the steam box on their shoulders spit fumes, and the temperature in the entire room was a little high.
"If you don't have a search warrant, this is a private house."
The braided maid tried to prevent the agents from entering.
Duke Willang lowered his head and said in a low voice to the maid, "I'm not a city policeman, and I must be better qualified than you to interpret the laws of this land."
"Forget it, let them in."
Liang Hui greeted him, then hurriedly lowered his voice: "Sir, why don't you go to the inner courtyard to rest first?"
"You are busy with yours."
Li Yan did not lift his eyelids.
Liang Hui's face was somewhat anxious. Although he believed in the power of the Emperor Lan Yi, he would not forget that this was an era of steam prosperity.
If something really happens, the Hesheng family will have a great cause and will be implicated.
Duke Weilang smiled at the maid, and then came to Liang Hui: "You are the leader of Hesheng Liang Hui? Younger than the photo, I can't believe you're half old Guys. I'm Agent Duke of Pinkerton. I suspect you have opium and prohibited weapons in your possession. Search your house, haha. "
When Duke Weilang saw Li Yan's armband and the iron box standing on the ground, his eyes suddenly glowed.
"Let me catch up."
He walked over quickly, but did nothing to provoke Li Yan who was standing by Liang Hui and took armbands by himself. Instead, he took out the same parts from the iron box and signaled to Liang Hui.
"what is this?"
"My lads move thousands of tons of fruits, vegetables, and meat every day, as well as various daily necessities on trains and ships. These days business is too busy, so I bought some equipment to speed up work efficiency. These are just for civilian use. No Equipped with explosives, completely legal, Mr. Agent. "
Liang Hui's face does not change color.
"It's not legal if you say it."
Duke sneered and greeted Liang Hui's yard to be searched by his agents.
"please wait a while."
Liang Hui interrupted Agent Duke's words.
"Do you want to discuss search warrants and judicial procedures with me?"
"This is not, Pinkerton's deeds. I have heard of it. Besides, after the new bill, the police station will almost not accept our case. I mean, you have fewer people."
Duke Weilang gave Liang Hui a surprised look.
Liang Hui looked at the agents behind Duke Willand: "One, two, three ... fifteen people? My house is only that big, but I promise you can't find anything. Think about it, if you Want to find something ... "
Liang Hui raised his cane and pointed at the door.
I don't know when the streets are shaking, whether it's a showman, a shaver, or a hawker, it seems that there are hundreds of people who are constantly approaching the steam car parked by Duke Wieland at the door. The crowd is still gathering in the distance.
Several detectives in the car raised their guns and yelled, but with little success.
"You should send more agents to search door-to-door for prohibited weapons and opiums in your mouth. If you do this, you may have some gains."
Click it.
Aside, Li Yanyi accidentally disassembled the entire small triathlon from the armband, and couldn't help laughing.
Duke leaned closer to Liang Hui's face, his face gloomy: "I'm here this time, just to say hello to you, San Francisco is not a place where you bugs can do anything you want."
"Hmm ..." Liang Hui shook his head: "I heard such words from building a maritime railway more than a decade ago, and now I still don't understand. Where do we wantonly?"
Duke took a sip and exclaimed: "Remove all these steam parts."
Some of He Sheng's thugs stared at him with anger and irritability. These parts were very valuable. He Sheng's money was very painful.
"Khekeke ~"
Liang Hui suddenly coughed, he took out a handkerchief to cover his mouth, and shook his head secretly at his own hands.
Several detectives lifted the iron boxes around the steamy parts blankly.
"And you, take your things off."
Duke said to move the arm armor of Li Yan's arm, which made Liang Hui frightened.
"I don't think you have the right to do so, Mr. Pinkerton's agent."
Seeing that Duke's hand was about to touch Li Yan, a voice came from outside the door.
A well-dressed, bearded man with a suitcase came in: "I'm Redric, and by the employment of Miss Dorothy, I told the City Hall on behalf of all the deported Chinese residents, and" forced eviction " Claim for the loss of destroyed houses and shops, as well as the loss of personal property. If you insist on what you just did, I don't mind adding the name of the petitioner to your business company. "
"Dorothy? That drama star Dorothy?"
Duke asked, incredulously. He did not pay attention to Li Yan's eyes, as if looking at a pig who escaped the slaughter.
"Thank goodness."
Dorothy got off the rail carriage and entered Liang Hui's house, knowing that she saw Li Yan, she was relieved.
"I'm really afraid you'll be missing or playing late with me before the show starts."
