Chapter 26 Revenge
Chapter 26 Zhu Biao burns the granary in revenge
Early the next morning, Sun Xin saw Tang Long coming into the house with a piece of peeled black steel skin.
Before Sun Xin could speak, Tang Long pulled him excitedly and asked, "Who made this machine?"
"This machine is so ingeniously made. I can't figure out how the craftsmen who made the machine combined the layers of different materials together. It's so perfect!"
Sun Xin could only deal with it with the foreign iron tool that floated from the sea. Tang Long was very sorry after hearing this. After repeatedly asking Sun Xin where he found the piece of metal on the beach, he seemed to want to go there again.
Try your luck.
Finally having tungsten steel on hand, Sun Xin quickly asked Master Tang Long to make two wrought iron pipes more than one meter long for him. Then Sun Xin went to work on his own and made a simple boring machine, and then he gave instructions.
Tang Long used peanut oil for lubrication and began to slowly grind the barrel. The hardness of the drill bit was still somewhat lacking. It took Tang Long four days to grind the barrel and rifling.
Then Tang Long, the golden leopard, wrapped the two iron whips with wooden supports and added triggers and gunpowder pools according to Sun Xin's requirements. Seven days later, Sun Xin finally received his weapons, two "eight-sided iron whips."
Tang Long was confused as he held this thing. He really didn't know how to use it. Only Sun Xin knew what kind of iron whip he was holding. These were two special-shaped Kentucky rifled guns.
.
After a few days of interaction, Sun Xin figured out Tang Long's character. He was very easy to get along with, and he felt like a technical expert for later generations. Sun Xin wanted to keep him in Zhuangzi, so he secretly took Tang Long out with him at night to try it out.
The effect of this rifled gun.
Sun Xin raised the iron whip that he had carefully trained for several days to get the accuracy right, and accurately hit the humanoid target a hundred years away with one shot.
Tang Long was stunned when he saw the iron whip making fire and sound in the dark night.
In that granary are the peanut seeds that I want to plant next year. If this guy destroys them, my losses will be immeasurable!
Sun Xin quickly opened the gunpowder bottle and poured gunpowder into the barrel. He also took a piece of suede leather and wrapped it with lead bullets and inserted the gunpowder into the barrel of his gun.
At this time, Sun Li suddenly saw the big box containing gold and silver next to Sun Xin. He felt that it was a bit unsafe to put so much money in Sun Xin's place, so he reminded Sun Xin: "Open your eyes a little more when you sleep at night. Now in this village,
With so much money, your village is newly built and very empty, so you have to avoid thieves."
If he doesn't come out, Zhu Biao will rush up and stab him decisively. It's best to stab Sun Xin to death in the dark before venting his anger.
So he said, "What's wrong with that?"
Suddenly, Sun Xin heard a small noise coming from the courtyard.
Tang Long was overjoyed when he heard this, "I will come here after the new year and will never break my promise."
Sun Xin secretly put down his pen and slowly stood up with the oil lamp on his back. He tried to make his shadow move within a smaller range so as not to fall into the perspective of people outside the room. At the same time, he reached out and picked up the iron whip beside his desk.
Sun Xin called Xie Zhen Jie Bao. The two had a casual meal together, and then he went back to the room, lit the lamp and started writing this autumn's planting plan.
Sun Xin also knew that Tang Long was a heroic person and would never betray his promise. If forced by him, Tang Long's temperament would rather give up making firearms and fulfill his promise.
"What a scoundrel, you dare to rob Zhu Biao's mother-in-law. Didn't you make a lot of money growing peanuts? Haha, I will call you a burning camp tonight! Let's see how you still grow it!"
Seeing the construction drawings on Sun Xin's desk, Sun Li couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Then adding igniting powder to the gunpowder pool, Sun Xin held his breath and turned the fusilier mechanism.
Thinking about my current strength, some cold weapons are enough for self-defense. After the winter, my corn will be harvested, and my strength will be expanded by then. Only then will I really need to build servants equipped with hot weapons.
.
It’s the dog days of summer, autumn has arrived, but the heat has not gone away.
Tang Long instantly beamed with joy. As a blacksmith, he could naturally realize the value of such a weapon, and he even wanted to keep it just out of the pursuit of technology.
Zhu Biaomao was in the darkness, holding a knife in his mouth and a fire fold in his hand, and quietly moved toward the grain depot in Sunjiazhuang.
"I understand, I just need to be more careful."
"I know, brother, didn't I build the armor?"
Normally, Xie Zhen and Jie Bao would be getting ready for bed at this time, and the two children would run out to pee before going to bed every day, but tonight they were silent.
"My Zhuangzi will expand in the coming year. I want to build a few more guns like this. Maybe Brother Tang Long will come to my Zhuangzi to help?"
"It's used to prevent robbers from borrowing food. How can it prevent small thieves?"
Sun Xin pushed aside the planting plan he had written, looked up at Sun Li and asked, "Has the wedding date been determined in Hujiazhuang?"
However, Tang Long was a little confused: "I have made an appointment this year to go to a few wealthy people's homes to build items. I need to be busy for a few months. Since I have already made a promise, I can't shirk it. Can I wait until after the New Year to come to your village?
Help build firearms?”
After the two of them had discussed the matter and it was almost dark, Sun Li mounted his horse and hurried back to Dengzhou City.
Entering Sunjiazhuang, Sun Li first looked around with satisfaction at the construction status of the house, and then entered the house.
"How could I have thought that our Sun family would have such a great momentum now? I would like to add another stick of incense to the graves of my father and mother, thanks to their blessing in heaven."
"Hujiazhuang is also very happy to hear that you have a good income from selling oil here. Grandpa Hu proposed to get married in Dongyue. I have discussed the date with him. He will send back gifts in the next two days."
For Sun Xin, who had arranged year-round work for agricultural cooperatives across several townships in the past, the planting plan for this ancient farm with dozens of people was actually not difficult, so he started writing quickly.
Sun Xin raised his head and smiled.
The place outside Shilipai is basically a wasteland, and there are many wild animals wandering outside every night, so it is not surprising to hear some noises. Sun Xin lowered his head and continued writing, but soon he discovered that the noises this time seemed different from usual.
, because the voices of Jie Zhen and Jie Bao disappeared.
Sun Xin glanced through the crack in the door and saw a man tiptoeing towards his granary under the dim moonlight.
Zhu Biao has practiced martial arts since he was a child and is very good at it. He is not afraid of the little Yuchi Sun Xin. He has seen Sun Li's ability and feels that Sun Li is worse than him. As for his younger brother Sun Xin, he is definitely better than Sun Xin.
It takes a weak hand to set up a watch.
At dusk that day, Sun Li, who had left his job early, rode to Shilipai.
Click, this subtle sound made the thief pause for a moment.
Seeing the other party's figure stop, Sun Xin shouted decisively: "Who is it?"
There was no fear in the thief's eyes, but he turned around like a rabbit and a falcon, and made a gesture that was both offensive and defensive.
Sun Xin pulled the trigger neatly, the fire flashed, and the man fell down.
Chapter completed!
