Chapter 28

Feel comfortable!

Zhu Guoqiang has been in a very good mood these days, especially after safely receiving the first batch of 100 "props" from Chengtian Company.

Looking at those exquisitely crafted weapons, Zhu Guoqiang even started working on them himself.

"First use hollow double-headed hexagonal screws to replace the primer..."

Because the raw materials and tools were readily available, Zhu Guoqiang quickly completed the modification of the props. In fact, it was just a matter of replacing a hundred screws.



But even so, when Dao finished his work, he still felt a little tired. After stretching and listening to the faint voices outside, Zhu Guoqiang patted his head and said.

"Why did you forget them?"

"Um, um, Wang Xi, call some palace maids to come over and do something for me,"

After thinking for a while, Zhu Guoqiang remembered the name of the internal official outside the door. As soon as he gave the order, Wang Xi who was outside the door quickly responded and went to call the person.

But in just a few minutes, the maids could be heard cooing and cooing through the window. Then five or six young and pretty girls walked into the room and wished him well.

"This slave has met His Highness."

Zhu Guoqiang, who had something on his mind when he heard the blessings, took out a few boxes and said to them.

"I asked you to come here because I have a job for you to do."

"Look, here is a box of copper caps and a box of order papers. Tear off the order papers... this one one by one, and then glue them into the copper caps."

This job is very simple, just tear it off and stick it on, and you will have a finished flash cap.

However, it only took a while for these palace maids to master the skills skillfully. In fact, there is no skill at all in this job. In less than half an hour, the seven palace maids who worked together and worked together made a box of tens of thousands of firecrackers.

The hats are all "made".

Then, they began to roll up the paper shells again, because they had already prepared a certain amount of copper shells and paper. In fact, they glued the paper rolls into a tube, fastened the weighted lead shot in the paper, and then loaded it.

Enter the prepared gunpowder.

Although the production process was very simple, it still took almost half a day to make because of the large quantity, tens of thousands of paper shells. In the meantime, Li Jingyun, who heard that the prince wanted help, also brought his own

The maid came over and started working together.

Finally, after working for a while, Li Jingyun raised her head and saw the prince playing with the musket after the last round of paper shells was ready, so she asked.

"Your Highness, what is this musket?"

"It's similar to a gun, but it's more convenient to use."

While explaining, Zhu Guoqiang smiled while holding the "steel gun".

"Come on, let's go to the yard and I'll try a few shots!"

In fact, Zhu Guoqiang had already had the idea of ​​testing the gun. After all, it would not be reassuring to test whether something can be used without trying a few shots.

When Li Jingyun and the others heard this, they immediately followed them curiously. Under the curious gaze of the girls, Zhu Guoqiang picked up a bullet, and according to the video he had seen online, he first bit the tail of the paper shell bullet, and then removed the gunpowder from the gun.

Pour into the barrel of the gun.

Although the raw materials for making gunpowder are brought from another world, the craftsmen are from Jinan. The gunpowder particles produced are of different sizes, so deal with them first.

With this thought in his mind, Zhu Guoqiang took out another flash cap, opened the hammer, and stuffed it into the primer...

Of course, Zhu Guoqiang didn't know whether the movements were standardized, and he didn't even care whether there were any mistakes in the steps. Now he was more concerned about whether he could succeed. After all, sometimes the suggestions from netizens were not necessarily reliable.

Hold the butt of the gun to your shoulder, aim and shoot...

At the moment when he pulled the trigger and the deafening gunshot sounded, Zhu Guoqiang felt the butt of the gun recoil violently, and then a cloud of white smoke spewed out from the muzzle.

Did the bullet hit its target?

"I hit it, I hit it, the prince is so good at shooting!"

Wang Xi had just shouted out, and all the palace maids around him were cheering. These cheers made Zhu Guoqiang feel a sense of ecstasy, and then he tried several more shots in succession, but none of them missed.

"Would you like to try it on?"

Turning around and seeing Li Jingyun looking eager to try, Zhu Guoqiang smiled and said

"Is it okay for me to be a concubine?"

"Is there anything you can't do? Come on, let me teach you..."

After putting the gun into Li Jingyun's hand and standing behind her to teach her how to hold the gun, Zhu Guoqiang couldn't help but regret it. Breathing the faint fragrance in his nose, he found that he seemed to be distracted.

"Look, the left hand is holding the handguard, right here, and the right hand is holding..."

After taking a deep breath and calming down, Zhu Guoqiang half hugged Li Jingyun in his arms and guided her.

"Then, aim, you see, here is the gap in the sight ruler, this is the crosshair, aim at the big tree, aim at it..."

"Are you aiming?"

"Um……"

Being held in someone's arms, Li Jingyun's breathing was a little rapid, but she still tried her best to aim at the target.

"Shoot!"

After the gunshot, even though the bullet missed, she still said enthusiastically.

"Can I get another shot?"

"You can fight as many times as you want. Didn't I ask you to gather the maids? You take these guns first and use them to fight. There is no difference between women and men!"

War never lets women go away, and in this war, living women are often worse off than dead. Instead of doing this, it is better to fight desperately.

"Really?"

"Can I still lie to you?"

Looking at Li Jingyun's happy look, Zhu Guoqiang said with a smile.

"By the way, we saved a lot of women last time we went out of the city, and many of them were homeless. Otherwise, you should group them together first. It's not sure whether they can fight when defending the city, but they can always help.

busy."

Throughout the ages, there seemed to be no distinction between men and women when guarding the city. Li Jingyun was naturally very happy about this arrangement, and even said excitedly. She would never let down the prince's trust. In response, Zhu Guoqiang just smiled casually and felt

Feeling a little tired, he gave instructions to the palace maid named Qing'er beside him.

"Okay, that's it for today. Let's boil some water. I'll take a bath to relieve my fatigue later...

"ah!"

When Qing'er's maid heard this, her pretty face turned red, she waved her hands and said with a smile:

"No, no, Master, I don't dare to mess with Master. I still remember the last time Sister Xi'er sent you to take a bath. It lasted two or three hours and you didn't know what to do. We couldn't go in either.

Later, after washing, I went in and took a look. The water from the ground covered the bed, and even the quilt was covered with water. I don’t know how it was washed. People laughed at Sister Xi’er for several days! Ask Sister Xi’er to wait on you.

Can you take a shower?"

What?

This is that and that?

Looking at the maids around him who were smiling with their heads down and even looking forward to it, even Li Jingyun blushed and turned away from him. Zhu Guoqiang only had one thought left in his heart - originally he thought

"Zhu Ciying" is a gentleman who doesn't understand anything, but I never thought that this kid is also a high-ranking official from Ximen who is well-read in poetry and has a sharp literary mind...
