Chapter 208 Novelties
"It's a pity that so many gold bars have disappeared like this." After the banquet, Old Man Zhang looked at the empty boxes and sighed, "I'm really unwilling to watch so many gold bars divide the officials. I don't know if they really will help you?"
"Aren't you not loving money? What a pity?" Li Jiuzhou smiled.
"I looked at it and after collecting the money, most of the officials just agreed on the surface. When it comes to sincere words, there are probably not many people." Old Man Zhang said softly.
"Don't worry about this." Li Jiuzhou was confident. "I don't expect them to help me. As long as they don't make trouble for me, they collected the money and decided that I was a money tree. At the critical moment, they would still stand on my side."
Old Man Zhang looked sad and said, "Since you are a piece of fat, maybe many officials who did not attend will be greedy after hearing the news. Are you really planning to spread the gold out in vain?"
After thinking about it, Li Jiuzhou smiled and said, "Greedy? Who is not greedy? It's not a waste of time. The reason for collecting money to eliminate disasters for others is always understood that the more people can buy with money, the better things are for me."
Li Jiuzhou is now extremely strong. With a gold mine and a variety of businesses, he is naturally not short of money, so he is so confident in speaking.
When Old Man Zhang thought of a thing, he couldn't help but say, "Since you are so rich and so generous, you want to deal with An Lushan, why don't you use money to bribe An Lushan?"
Li Jiuzhou snorted and said, "I don't plan to bribe him, and I don't want to get any benefits from him. The only thing I want is his life."
Old Man Zhang gradually turned into a sad look and said, "Since you want his life, why not I assassinate him for you."
Li Jiuzhou smiled and said, "An Lushan's martial arts skills are not weak, and he is very cautious around him. If you want to assassinate him, I'm afraid you will be successful first."
Old man Zhang frowned deeply and said, "How do you know if you don't try?"
"Okay, don't have this idea." Li Jiuzhou laughed sarcastically. He knew that it was not easy to assassinate An Lushan, and his current power was almost up to An Lushan. If he fought head-on, it would not be certain who would die.
Old Man Zhang smiled and said, "You have now bribed most of the officials in the capital who hold important positions. What are you going to do next?"
Li Jiuzhou laughed dryly, had a thought in his heart, and said, "Next, I have to make something."
In the next few days, Li Jiuzhou locked himself in the house and closed his door to thank the guests.
He wants to make something unique.
gun!
With some of my own knowledge, I don’t know if I can succeed.
China was the earliest inventor of gunpowder and one of the earliest ancestors of hot weapons. However, due to the feudal era, the mainstream Chinese culture has always maintained a high degree of resistance and disregard for the so-called "strange skills" such as engineering and natural sciences, resulting in the lack of systematic organization, research, and inheritance of relevant technical systems, and lack of high-quality people to study.
After all, in ancient times, people were more willing to study imperial examinations.
This made it possible for the development of thermal weapons in ancient China to stagnate as the performance of guns improves, and as the requirements for materials, process and structural design become higher and higher, the development of thermal weapons in ancient China began to stagnate until it was eventually greatly surpassed by the West. Although China has introduced a large number of modern gun manufacturing and design technologies since the late Qing Dynasty, its ability level is still far less than that in the West.

Cut the patch to the right size, then fix it with iron wire, and make the nut.
The next thing to do is welding, and the iron shop helped solve this problem.
The spring is simple, and it didn't take long for Li Jiuzhou to make it. It was just because of the limitations of materials, it was still different from the springs in modern society, and the elasticity was not as good as imagined.
A simple piston was not as difficult as expected. Although it took some time, it still made a rough one.
After a while of trouble, Li Jiuzhou finally made an air gun.
So he made two more air guns, a total of three, which had been spent by Li Jiuzhou for a long time.
Why not find someone to follow the imitation?
The reason is very simple. With modern technology, Li Jiuzhou could easily learn it by the ancients, so it would be better to be confused.
Besides, this is something that I have worked hard to make, so how can others learn the technology easily?

I don’t know how long it had passed, but Li Jiuzhou went out with the prepared air gun and came to the yard.
It's a pity to try the power!
It is OK to use it for bird hunting at close range. If you take it to hunt, you will probably not even be able to kill a rabbit.
Although it was very different from what I imagined, Li Jiuzhou was still very satisfied.
He didn't expect this gun to be used for war.
Old Man Zhang looked around, frowned slightly, shook his head and said, "What's the use of making this thing? You can't kill anyone. Do you plan to sell it to the rich children of the playboys to make a fortune?"
Li Jiuzhou laughed at himself, put away his airsoft, and said to him: "Although it can't kill people, it can at least hurt people, and it's good to use it for self-defense."
Old Man Zhang subconsciously glanced at the air gun again, and still shook his head: "If you are on the battlefield, you may not be useful to use this thing to defend yourself."
"Who said I want to defend myself?" Li Jiuzhou answered disdainfully.
"Then why are you doing this?"

"Send someone!" Li Jiuzhou looked at the air gun and felt happy.
"Who are you sending?" Old Man Zhang asked.
Li Jiuzhou glanced at him, "Why did you ask so much? Get a carriage for me."
Old Man Zhang snorted lightly, reluctantly retreated, and prepared the carriage.
The carriage moved slightly and began to move forward in the official road, slowly moving towards the westward direction.
After passing through several small streets, he came to a quiet house. Old Man Zhang, who had been keeping his eyes closed in the carriage, opened his eyes and looked around, and suddenly said, "Where is this?"
Li Jiuzhou had already jumped out of the carriage, "You can wait outside."
Old man Zhang also got off the carriage and looked around. He saw that the courtyard wall was high and the courtyard was invisible. The courtyard was deep and the surroundings were extremely quiet, just like a place where noble people lived and raised.
Old Man Zhang couldn't help but ask curiously: "This yard is obviously home to noble people. Which noble people are you going to please?"
Li Jiuzhou gave him a blank look, "You are so old that you are still asking questions like a child. Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, just wait for me outside."
Old Man Zhang really pouted like a child, reluctantly stayed next to the carriage and started chatting with the coachman.
Li Jiuzhou walked slowly over with a long box with an air gun, reached out to pull the door knocker, and knocked the door.
With a creak, the door opened.
The person who opened the door was surprised when he saw Li Jiuzhou: "Why are you?"
