The international hunting rifle market was booming for a while more than ten years ago, and was regarded by many foreign hunting enthusiasts as a good gift for relatives and friends.
However, with the emergence of a new generation of new and improved firearms with built-in infrared sights, this five-shot series has gradually declined.
Of course, Fang Xiaoyue’s five-shot imitation shotgun is definitely not as good as the original.
First of all, due to the rough manufacturing process and raw materials, it does not have an automatic loading function. It can only fire one round and pull the butt to reload.
In addition, it can only use shotgun bullets, and its range has been reduced from more than 40 meters to 30 meters.
But having said that, the reduction of its various properties also makes its manufacturing process simpler, and the most critical point is that the raw materials are easier to obtain than the original products.
This point is particularly important in 1646, after the time travel.
After all, in this era, there is no such convenient purchasing environment as before time travel.
Before time travel, as long as you had money, it was very easy to buy some high-quality seamless steel pipes for civilian use. You didn’t need to go to the manufacturer to purchase them in person. You could just place an order online. If you buy more, you’ll get discounts, and you’ll get a thousand off for purchases over 100,000.
Buy more and save more!
At this time, let alone seamless steel pipes, even better steel pipes are not so easy to purchase.
You don’t have any connections, and if you want to purchase in large quantities, you can’t find a seller!
Ma Tianfu’s gun-making machine includes a machine for making low-quality seamless steel pipes.
You only need to pour molten iron in to pull out the seamless steel pipe directly. However, the seamless steel pipe pulled out is not as high quality as those produced by regular manufacturers. It can be used to make a five-shot gun barrel, which can fire up to five rounds.
After ten shots, the barrel may explode due to defects in the barrel.
Of course, for the military team who are now eager to solve the problem, let alone firing fifty CIA shots to blow up the chamber, even if it fires 20 rounds to blow up the chamber, it is still a good gun!
Five consecutive rounds were sent to the hands of the military team. The military team looked completely different in an instant.
The previous military team looked like a group of hooligans carrying steel pipes and watermelon knives to chop people.
And now, each of them was holding five consecutive rounds, and they revealed a murderous aura that made the Ming army prisoners tremble all over.
After the Ming soldiers were captured and returned, the Provisional Management Committee was not prepared to feed them, but instead used them as the first batch of free labor force.
A total of more than fifty people were captured by the Ming army. When they were brought back, the trucks were packed with people.
Now, more than ten of these prisoners have joined the military group under the influence of food and care, while the remaining thirty or so have been recruited by the agricultural group to participate in the reclamation of nearby forests.
In the eyes of Zheng Xiangdong, chairman of the interim management committee, this is a good start.
And that Ming general was a deputy Qianhu of Nanhai Guard Qianhu Station.
Well before, after the guard Qianhu Station learned that a group of bandits had landed on the nearby coast, someone proposed to send troops to encircle and suppress this group of bandits.
However, considering the execution capabilities of the Ming army, sending troops was a long process.
Sending troops, among other things, a series of issues such as paying the soldiers' departure fees, who should be sent to preside over the battle, etc., delayed the dispatch of troops until a week later.
After all, it will take time to ask for extraction fees from nearby Qiongshan County, etc.
If it weren't for the fact that this group of thieves were too close, the dispute over expenses between Guangqiongshan County and Weiwei Qianhu Office would have lasted for a month.
Of course, if he had a choice, the deputy Qianhu would go back to the past and decide not to agree to send troops to the war.
No benefit was gained, and he became a prisoner of this group of thieves.
Now this Deputy Qianhu can no longer think of confronting the thief.
This group of thieves is so terrifying, not to mention what sorcery they used to prevent their archers from even shooting an arrow, just the self-driving truck monsters they control without horses or cattle.
, enough to scare Fu Qianhu to the point of peeing.
To be honest, if the roads were not so bad, the military team would have killed and maimed more than 200 Ming troops just by driving a truck.
This is not the future with traffic laws. If you are killed in a collision, it is okay, but if you are disabled, you can only consider yourself unlucky.
After being imprisoned for a few days, Deputy Qianhu made a suggestion to Sun Xuebin. He was willing to use money to redeem himself.
How much? Five hundred taels of silver!
Fu Qianhu gritted his teeth and made this suggestion with blood dripping from his heart.
Don't underestimate five hundred taels of silver.
In this day and age, silver is actually quite valuable.
Normally, in the Guangdong area, merchants hire a waiter, who pays them food and lodging for only five cents a month.
In other words, a clerk can only accumulate six taels of silver at most after scrimping for a year!
These 500 taels of silver require 80 clerks to accumulate a year's salary.
Depending on the region, a bullock costs between twelve taels of silver and twenty taels of silver. This is due to the war and the slight increase in livestock prices.
In short, five hundred taels is not too little.
There is not much money to be had in the Nanhai area. Fu Qianhu relies on those military households to farm land. He has managed to save 800 taels of silver over the years, and he has to give away 500 taels in the blink of an eye. It really makes him feel extremely sad!
But if you don’t part with this kind money and you are locked up here, who knows what will happen in Qianhuzhuo, maybe your wife will run away with the money.
After Sun Xuebin learned about this, he immediately submitted the matter to the meeting of the Interim Management Committee for everyone to study and discuss.
After all, one person is short-sighted, but three people are wise.
Sun Xuebin did not dare to agree to this matter alone.
However, after the interim management committee met to study the matter, everyone unanimously decided that the deputy Qianhu could be released with a ransom.
The reason is simple, the value of this guy being put back is much higher than being kept here as a prisoner.
Either attract the other party to send troops again in a short period of time and severely defeat them, or make them dare not send troops again and live in harmony with the Provisional Management Committee.
Of course, the specific situation will be studied on a case-by-case basis.
After Fang Xiaoyue made more than 100 five-shot guns, the interim management committee undoubtedly gained a lot of confidence.
Indeed, these five consecutive shots can be considered a weapon for street fighting.
Within a range of 30 meters, a shot fired can cover at least several square meters.
As long as you are not wearing double-layer heavy armor, five consecutive shots will have an unusual killing effect at the ultimate killing range of 30 meters.
With these more than 100 five-shot rounds, the military team has temporarily become a fragrant steamed bun traveling through the streets.
