Chapter 45 -45: Protect Yourself, GUN!

Sean and Aunt Susan greeted each other before he returned to his room.

Today, Sky Eye scanned many containers, but the energy consumption was not much.

He realized that after the upgrade, each scan of Sky Eye had not only become clearer but also consumed less energy.

This was undoubtedly good news.

Time to take inventory of his gains.

After buying jadeite and adding the bets and winnings, he had left over 210,000 US dollars.

For today’s container auction, he spent 41,000 dollars and got back 145,000 dollars, leaving a net balance of 310,000 dollars.

Converted to domestic currency, he could be considered a small millionaire.

New novel 𝓬hapters are published on freёwebnoѵel.com.

However, being a millionaire in China did not mean much nowadays.

With money on his mind, Sean thought about his safety.

Americans can possess guns. Although ordinary people are not allowed to buy automatic weapons, semi-automatic guns are still guns!

Considering the people he offended and the envious gazes he received at the container auction site, Sean felt it was really necessary to buy a gun for self-defense.

He called Paul:

“Paul, can you help me get a gun license?”

“No need, Sean. You go to the gun store, take your driver’s license, and the owner will issue you a gun license when you buy the gun.”

It turned out to be so simple!

Sean immediately took the money and went out to ask Aunt Susan where the gun store was.

“Go out and turn left. At the east end of the town, there is a gun store. Mr. Will’s Gun Store has been open for decades and has a good reputation!”

Aunt Susan was not surprised that Sean wanted to buy a gun. She had a rifle in her own house.

Sean thanked Aunt Susan and drove to Mr. Will’s Gun Store.

Seeing the big gun sign, Sean was excited.

Just think about it – which Chinese man wouldn’t be excited when facing guns?

He had only really played with guns during military training in high school, a Type 56 semi-automatic rifle with five rounds, scoring 42 points. At that time, a sergeant instructor said he did well.

A sentence that excited Sean for a long time, but of course, more importantly, the instructor gave him three bullet shells.

According to his father, Mark Knight, when he was young, he was a primary militiaman, and at that time, the Type 56 submachine guns could be taken home.

At that time, Sean was five or six years old, often playing with guns, but he couldn’t remember it anymore.

Entering the gun store, a chubby white man about Sean’s height and in his fifties greeted him with a smile:

“You’re the Chinese man Sean who moved into Susan’s house, right? Here to buy a gun?”

“Yes, Mr. Will.” Sean didn’t expect Will to recognize him. He asked tentatively, “But I don’t have a gun license…”

“That’s easy.” Will seemed to handle this kind of business frequently, took out a card from under the counter and said: “Come on, register. As long as you have no criminal record of possessing a gun and a good tax record, you can buy a gun.”

Sean happily filled out the form.

Once finished, Will pointed to a row of guns hanging on the wall and asked:

“Which kind do you like? There’s a discount now, so you can take your pick of a few!”

Sean immediately spotted a Type 56 semi-automatic!

He was delighted to see domestic Type 56 semi-automatic here, not the ones from Russia.

Unfortunately, it had a flat thorn instead of a triangular military thorn, which Sean naturally liked after watching “C.Z.12”.

“This is an export from your fellow Chinese manufacturers up north, if you want to buy it, 980 dollars.”

Sean did not hesitate to take it!

Next, Sean chose a Glock G19 for 850 dollars.

Originally, he wanted to see if there was a 54 pistol, but there wasn’t any.

Then he bought a Remington 700 with a scope, intending to use it as a hunting rifle.

Having bought the guns, he naturally wanted to test them out. Will happily said:

“Come on, there’s a shooting range out back; you can try them out there.”

Sean Knight excitedly picked up the gun and followed them to the back. A young man took over for Will, set up Sean’s shooting position, and stood nearby.

Sean thought the man might be worried because he wasn’t familiar with guns.

But honestly speaking, having not touched a gun for so many years, he really wasn’t as proficient as before.

The young man helped Sean remove the safety, load and chamber the rounds, and pull back the gun’s bolt.

The man taught Sean how to aim. Holding the Type 56 semi-automatic, Sean started to feel more comfortable!

The rifle was well-adjusted, and Sean lined up the sights, took a steady breath, and squeezed the trigger — bang!

Bullseye!

Sean’s eyes were as sharp as if he had a scope on, clearly seeing everything at 50 meters!

From then on, he fired ten rounds. Only one shot scored a 9 because he held his breath for too long and squeezed the trigger harder, while the others hit the bullseye!

Next up were the pistols, hunting rifles…

When Sean left the shooting range feeling satisfied, the white youth was still a little confused.

Was this Chinese man a born shooter?

Based on his movements and posture, he was indeed a novice. There was no exaggeration or pretense at all.

But looking at the scores Sean achieved, how could he be a novice?

Sean took the completed gun permit from Will, carried the guns in the bag, and happily drove back home.

He carried the pistol on his person, placed the hunting rifle in the car, and intended to bring the rifle back to his room.

If he hadn’t had more critical goals to accomplish at the moment, Sean would have wanted to apply for a hunting permit immediately.

As others had said, when you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail that needs to be hammered!

In celebration of buying a gun, Sean called Joanna to dine with her.

Joanna unhappily said:

“I can’t right now. These days I’m staying at home. I’m being picked up and dropped off for school, so it’s hard to come out alone…”

Upon hearing this, Sean had a faint sense of unease. He asked:

“Is it because your father found out about our relationship?”

“Yes… Yes, it is.” Joanna’s voice was very low.

“What are the conditions your father has? Does he think I’m not worthy of you, or is it because I’m Chinese?”

Sean clenched his fists, yet quickly released them feeling powerless.

This difficult problem was genuinely hard to solve.

“Both reasons… Sean, don’t worry, I love you, and I’ll definitely make it clear to my parents…”

Helplessly hanging up the phone, Sean knew that the only way to change Joanna’s parents’ minds now was to acquire the actual will as soon as possible, secure the farmland, and become a multimillionaire.

He had to speed up his income!

Early the next day, Sean returned to the Port Cargo Yard.

Yesterday, Mr. John sent information that four cargo yards would be holding container auctions today. Sean decided to attend at least one auction in the morning and one in the afternoon, trying to make 500,000 dollars as quickly as possible, so that Robert could help acquire the will!

The first freight yard had only three containers, so not many people came.

Sean didn’t even know any of them, and he laughed.

With fewer competitors, it’s even better.

Jason approached and said with a smile:

“Bosun, one of these three containers came from China. The cargo owner didn’t claim it…”

Sean nodded.

Standing in the crowd, Sean activated his Sky Eye and found that half of the people, like him, were carrying guns.

He turned his gaze to the containers, and the first one contained something that he was familiar with.

Sean laughed.

Such beautiful memories from the past!
