<h4>Chapter 1893: Chapter 1994: Bringing the Weapons Back</h4>


    "Who knows how to drive?" Xiang Yu asked, looking at everyone.


    The crowd looked at each other, but no one stepped forward. They came from the slums; forget about driving, they hadn’t even ridden in a car before.


    Seeing that no one volunteered, Xiang Yu turned to Tie Zhuzi and said, "You better drive us back."


    Tie Zhuzi nodded, "Brother Yu, I’ll take you back."


    "Take two brothers with you, I’ll walk back with the others," Xiang Yu said.


    "No way, it’s not safe," Tie Zhuzi said worriedly.


    "Don’t worry, it’s fine, Xiaoxuan is still around," Xiang Yu said confidently.


    Tie Zhuzi thought it over and agreed, "Okay, I’ll take the guys and bring the weapons back first."


    After speaking, he called two people to get into the car. Those two sat in the car, exploring with curiosity, looking around and touching everything.


    "Alright, sit tight and keep an eye on the surroundings. When the city develops, everyone will get their own car," Tie Zhuzi said heroically.


    "Chief, are you serious?" one of them said, looking at Tie Zhuzi with anticipation.


    Tie Zhuzi enjoyed the title and nodded, "Of course, a car doesn’t cost that much."


    Along the way, Tie Zhuzi started bragging to the two, saying he had over a dozen cars back home, all luxury ones. The car Xiang Yu drove was even cooler, bulletproof and all.


    Hearing this, the two’s eyes were filled with admiration for Tie Zhuzi, as if he was a legend.


    Driving back to the slum, they were stopped by the militia.


    Seeing it was Tie Zhuzi and his guys inside, they were allowed to pass through.


    Tie Zhuzi drove back to the base, where the guards were already waiting.


    Seeing Tie Zhuzi return, everyone rushed forward, some touching the car, others peering inside, eager to see the weapons.


    "What’s the fuss? Line up," Tie Zhuzi ordered with a half-smile.


    The guards quickly lined up, and Tie Zhuzi jumped out of the vehicle saying, "Now that we’ve got weapons, everyone needs to train harder, got it?"


    "Yes!" the guards shouted with high spirits.


    "Okay, unload the weapons but don’t hand them out yet. Wait until the Chief gets back for distribution," Tie Zhuzi said, trying to sound official.


    The others quickly unloaded the gear, handling everything with care, afraid of damaging the weapons.


    After unloading, Tie Zhuzi drove off again, worried about Xiang Yu’s safety.


    Xiang Yu and the others walked leisurely, free of burdens now that the deal wasplete.


    Halfway through, Tie Zhuzi caught up with them.


    Xiang Yu didn’t get in the car and continued walking with his brothers, while Tie Zhuzi followed behind.


    They returned to the base by dawn, and instead of gathering the troops, Xiang Yu dismissed them to rest.


    The next morning, after exercising, Xiang Yu arrived at the base, where the guards were training diligently and earnestly, their faces determined.


    If this unit gets properly trained, theirbat effectiveness will surely be strong.


    "Call them to assemble," Xiang Yu said to Xiaoxuan, who stood with a cold expression.


    Xiaoxuan nodded and made a gesture, quickly bringing everyone together to form a line.


    They knew the asion, and excitement filled their faces.


    "Good morning, Chief," the group suddenly shouted, standing in line.


    Xiang Yu had grown ustomed to the title and nodded, "Starting today, each of you will have a weapon. Remember one thing: a gun isn’t just for killing — it’s to protect our city and families’ safety..."


    Xiang Yu spoke passionately for a while, even surprising himself at how talkative he could be.


    The guards were also fired up, vowing to follow Xiang Yu to the end.


    Finishing his speech, Xiang Yu had Tie Zhuzi distribute the weapons: one pistol per person, a submachine gun, and a hundred rounds of ammunition.


    Among them was a heavy machine gun, which Xiang Yu instructed Tie Zhuzi to ce at the base’s high point, a critical spot in case of an attack.


    "Xiaoxuan, Zhuzi, you both stay and teach them how to shoot," Xiang Yu instructed.


    "Don’t worry, brother," Xiaoxuan replied confidently.


    Xiang Yu nodded and left. The city needed development ns, so he went to see if Long Wu needed help.


    At his lodging, he found Long Wu and Xi’er bent over a table, discussing something intensely.


    A designyouty in front of them, and their spirited discussion had them oblivious to Xiang Yu’s arrival.


    Not wanting to disrupt them, Xiang Yu settled in quietly to admire the pair.


    Both had great figures, but Long Wu seemed to have the upper hand, with her noble aura making her irresistible.


    After a while, Long Wu, feeling thirsty, turned her head and caught Xiang Yu looking at her behind.


    Flushing, Long Wu shot Xiang Yu a re.


    Xiang Yu chuckled and said, "You two seemed busy, so I didn’t disturb you."


    Long Wu gave him a teasing look and asked, "What brings you here?"


    "I came to see if you needed any help," Xiang Yu replied with a grin.


    "We’re nning a school, and they needbor over there. Why don’t you help out there?" Long Wu suggested.


    Xi’er stood awkwardly, then chuckled, "I’ll leave you two to chat, I’ve got things to do."


    Xi’er, aware of Long Wu’s feelings for Xiang Yu, also had a soft spot for him but respected Long Wu’s precedence.


    Curious, she thought Xiang Yu was a tough, fearless man but appeared like a kitten with Long Wu.


    "How’s the factory nning going?" Xiang Yu inquired.


    With Xi’er gone, Long Wu sat down and sipped water, "The funds haven’t transferred yet. I n to focus on the school first; as for the factory, construction will start in about a week."


    Xiang Yu nodded, noticing how Long Wu seemed a bit weary over the days, "You’ve worked hard, remember to take care and rest." he said caringly.


    Long Wu paused, startled. She hadn’t heard suchforting words from Xiang Yu before, and it was initially disorienting.


    "Got it, I’ll be okay," Long Wu replied with a happy smile.


    Just as Xiang Yu was about to speak, his phone rang — it was Wang Qian.


    Not wanting Long Wu to get jealous for no reason, he stepped aside to answer.


    "What’s up?" Xiang Yu asked straightforwardly.


    "Nothing, just missed you," Wang Qian’s voice was gentle.


    Feeling a bit awkward, Xiang Yu moved farther away, d Long Wu hadn’t heard those words, or she’d definitely be jealous.


    "Stop messing around, I’m busy," Xiang Yu said.


    Wang Qian giggled, "I can’t believe you’re embarrassed. Never thought I’d see that."
