Chapter 77 Duncan

This blonde and blue-eyed foreigner was a little down and out, and Liu Chang could smell the heavy smell of motor oil from him.

He wore a heavy dress and a pair of wrench in his hand, and introduced himself to Liu Chang: "I am Duncan! I have good things, and I believe General Liu will be interested."

Zhou Xiuying next to him introduced to Liu Chang: "This Mr. Duncan is a Tessie Irish person and is most enthusiastic about justice. This time Xiuying was able to escape from the troubles in Shanghai, so she was helped by Mr. Duncan."

Liu Chang bowed: "It turns out that Duncan was a British person first..."

As soon as he said this, Duncan almost jumped up, and he shouted: "No, no, General Liu, don't mix me with the British who deserve to die, I am a free Irish."

Only then did Liu Chang realize that Duncan was an Irish militant. Since Britain conquered Ireland, Ireland's history has only been composed of blood and tears, especially the just-occurred Great Irish famine that made all the real Irish people hate Britain to the core.

Duncan is a typical Irish activist who explained his identity: "We are free Irish people, and Ireland is the strongest country in the West."

Liu Chang was not interested in Duncan's identity. Whether it was the Irish or the Britons, they were all foreigners. He was concerned about the "good things" brought by Duncan: "His Excellency Duncan, I would like to express my great gratitude for your assistance to my subordinates for their glorious actions. You have any goods that interest me."

"This is a good thing I took out from the Springfield Arsenal!" Duncan said mysteriously: "But no one in your Eastern country recognizes his value, it is definitely a good thing!"

"You just want to be a small warlord, or you want to accept the invitation from the Chinese government. So it doesn't matter whether my good things are there, but if you want to be a real emperor, then my goods are indispensable to you!"

As he said that, he had already taken out his goods. Liu Chang saw many drill bits, all of which are large and small: "Is this a drill bit?"

"You are indeed aware of the goods. You know this is a drill bit. It's amazing, amazing! You are the first Chinese to recognize these treasures!" Duncan praised repeatedly: "I have more good goods!"

Not only did he have a drill, but he also took out dozens of well-maintained raft heads. Liu Chang's eyes seemed to see the second beauty like Zhou Xiuying: "Very good, very good!"

With ready-made drill bits and broach heads, you can directly use the machine tool, especially this broach head, which can directly pull the rifle: "Do you use these drill bits and broach heads?"

"Why can't I? I'm a real engineer at the Springfield Arsenal!" Duncan told Liu Chang: "It only takes a few days to build a bed for you!"

This really made me pick up the treasure. Liu Chang looked at the drill bits and trowels on Duncan's hand and saw such a stunning beauty as Zhou Xiuying.

Duncan continued to talk about his identity: "You are a real big shot who knows goods and has the ability to see. I have been in China for so long. No one knows these trowels and drills. I only want to buy them from me at the price of scrap iron. If you want, I am willing to accept your employment."

"Okay!" Liu Chang was very happy to see this foreigner who came to serve voluntarily. Although Duncan obviously encountered great financial difficulties, he lacked such talents: "How much salary do you want every month?"

"How much is the salary?" Duncan hesitated: "I know a lot of knowledge, and you will definitely know interest in this knowledge. I participated in the war between America and Mexico, and I can make explosives and know how to make sulfuric acid."

"Sulphuric acid!!!" Liu Chang's interest suddenly came. Everyone knew that sulfuric acid was the key to industrial development. With sulfuric acid, it was equivalent to everything: "Can you make sulfuric acid?"

"That's right!" Duncan opened his head, and he talked endlessly about how to use the lead chamber method to produce sulfuric acid: "Since 1749, this has been the most popular and best method in the world. As long as I have enough manpower, the sulfuric acid I can produce is almost exactly the same as that produced in Europe."

What kind of talent is this! Liu Chang feels it is a bit unreliable. It would be fine if Duncan participated in the US-Mexico War. He also worked as a technician at the Springfield Arsenal. He can produce sulfuric acid and even make explosives. This is simply a must-have for time travelers at home!

He didn't know that Duncan was a real Irish terrorist who had created several terrorist incidents in Europe and America. For a terrorist, how to make sulfuric acid and how to make explosives is simply common.

"And I brought a full 100 liters of concentrated sulfuric acid from Shanghai. I have a special method. I can use concentrated sulfuric acid as the lead chamber method to continuously produce more concentrated sulfuric acid!" Duncan showed off his skills: "With sulfuric acid, you can produce nitric acid and mercury!"

Demons next to him had already started calling: "God! You brought sulfuric acid on the boat, God! Fortunately nothing happened!"

As a very veteran terrorist, Duncan ignored Demons's exclamation: "Also, I will make black gunpowder, real granular black gunpowder!"

What Liu Chang was more interested in was that he could make thunder mercury, and with thunder mercury, he could make fire hats.

For Liu Chang, a fire hat is a necessity that must be made by oneself but cannot be made at all. Without the fire hat, it becomes a fire stick. However, the fire gun is the best equipment that Liu Chang can get at present. Including the forty-five shots purchased this time, Liu Chang already has sixty shots in his hand.

Duncan continued to explain his knowledge: "As a veteran of the American-Mexico War, I will also maintain all the firearms, smoothbore, rifled rifle, flintlock rifle, firing gun, Minnie rifle..."

Talent! Talent!

Liu Chang had no choice but to sigh like this. This person may not be eye-catching in Shanghai, but Liu Chang is a real treasure here. Liu Chang asked without hesitation: "How much do you want?"

"How much?" Duncan hesitated for a long time: "I want 200 silver dollars a month, no, no, this is too little, it doesn't fit my value."

"Two hundred and fifty silver dollars, I have to pay my salary in advance at the beginning of each month."

Duncan claimed his salary that he thought was very high, waiting for Liu Chang to cut the price. His bottom line was to be at least 150 silver dollars a month.

He was not going to work in Liu Chang's army for a long time. As long as he earned a few months and raised enough funds, he was going to return to Europe to continue his terrifying and explosive career.

"Two hundred and fifty silver dollars a month?"

"Yes, I want two hundred and five."

"make a deal!"

Liu Chang turned around and said to Demons: "I am very satisfied. Two forty-eight taels of gold ingots, as long as you have enough goods, it will be yours!"
