"Very good! My dear friends, I am very pleased that you have such awareness!
"
Emperor Chongzhen said with a smile.
"Damn it! This old guy earns ten million taels of silver at a time, and he hasn't killed anyone yet. It's better to be the emperor. When I become the emperor in the future, I will definitely collect more money."
Lin Fan thought in his heart.
Chongzhen glanced at Lin Fan proudly and thought to himself: "Now you know how powerful I am, you should learn more. If you want money, you don't have to kill people!"
The officials thanked each other through gritted teeth, and went back to find ways to collect money. Lin Fan returned to the Baihu Si Yamen, and after giving instructions to the Jin Yiwei for the next steps, he went to the arsenal.
The Xuanjia Army is all equipped with armor, and the weapon is Mo Dao?
Now, the Mo Dao is almost finished, Lin Fan plans to equip all the Xuanjia Army with triangular spurs!
This kind of weapon did not exist in ancient times, but in the 21st century, it is definitely a very terrifying cold weapon. The classic triangular design makes it difficult to stop the enemy's wound from bleeding once it stabs the enemy!
Moreover, it will cause serious damage to the enemy's internal body. In an era when cold weapons are king, it is definitely a weapon for individual combat!
"Ouyeye, do you understand the three-sided military thorns I'm talking about?"
Lin Fan introduced Ouyeye.
After listening to Lin Fan's detailed explanation, Ouyeye said in a deep voice: "Master Lin, the structure of this triangular spur is really unique. Although I haven't made the finished product yet, I know that this is definitely an extremely lethal weapon.
Big weapons!"
"Because it has one more blade than an ordinary weapon, it will cause much more damage. Moreover, the wound is irregular in shape, so it is probably difficult to treat!"
The more Oyeye said, the more excited he became. He now felt that his imagination had been limited by traditional craftsmanship. Why didn't he think of such a weapon?
"That would be great if you understand. I plan to equip every Black Armor Army with such a weapon. You should help me build it as soon as possible!"
Lin Fan said.
"Yes! Sir!"
Ouyeye said excitedly.
After Lin Fan gave these instructions, he was about to turn around and leave. At this moment, a system prompt sounded in his ears.
Ding!
"The host will be blessed today. If you sign in at the arsenal, you will have a great chance of obtaining weapons manufacturing blueprints!"
Now that Lin Fan heard such a system prompt, he was already indifferent!
Since the previous experiences, Lin Fan would wait for this prompt to appear every day, otherwise, he would be stuck in signing in before the early morning.
However, this prompt from the system is only a good reward given by chance. The items I was given during my previous check-ins were still ordinary things.
"System! Start signing in."
Lin Fan said.
Ding!
"Congratulations to the host for successfully signing in and obtaining the design drawings of the flintlock gun!"
kindness!
Flintlock gun!
This is the earliest weapon that can fire continuously. It has not appeared in the world at this time. However, the advantages of this weapon are only a little better than the fire gun.
In actual combat, it still cannot play a decisive role, but this flintlock gun can also be loaded with six bullets at the same time!
Not only that, the later reloading is much more convenient than the fire gun. It can also be used briefly on rainy days. It is a good weapon to equip all Jinyi guards.
Lin Fan came to Ouyeye again, gave him the blueprint of the flintlock gun, and said: "Ouyeye, when you are making the three-sided military spurs, you can also make ten thousand of these fusiliers."
"Flintlock?"
Ouyeye looked at the drawing in Lin Fan's hand, his eyes full of doubts.
However, when he looked at the drawings, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes. This weapon seemed to be much more advanced than the fire blunderbuss and could fire continuously!
"Sir, the craftsmanship of this flintlock gun is relatively complicated, and it will be very difficult to manufacture. If you make 10,000 guns, it will take at least a month!"
"I still need to make the three-sided military spurs first. Therefore, I can only allocate a small number of people to make them. The time for ten thousand swords will be delayed to three months!"
Oyeye said.
"Three months is enough. This flintlock gun is just the prototype of a repeating gun. Aren't you a weapons master?
Try to find a way to break through, and if you can develop a better weapon than a flintlock gun, I will reward you greatly."
Lin Fan said with a smile.
Ouyeye said: "Don't worry, sir. Although this flintlock gun is complicated, in my opinion, there is still a lot of room for improvement!"
"Yes! I believe in you, and you should design it well!"
Lin Fan said.
Then, Lin Fan returned to Lin Mansion.
After three days, the ministers in the court collected 10 million taels of silver and sent it to the palace. With a stroke of his pen, Chongzhen asked the Jin Yiwei to escort the 1 million taels of silver to Shanhaiguan.
The remaining nine million taels of silver were left in the palace. Only then did the ministers realize that they were evil. Emperor Chongzhen was even more evil than them!
"Nine million taels of silver. Your Majesty has earned so much money without doing anything!"
"Lin Fan! It must be Lin Fan, that bastard. He must be the one who told His Majesty what we did, and he must be the one who harmed His Majesty!"
"This matter must have something to do with Lin Fan!"
"Lin Fan, this bastard, deserves to die ten thousand times!"
“However, Your Majesty left nine million taels of silver, can we think of a way to get His Majesty to return it to us?
After all, it’s our hard-earned money!”
"Do you think that's possible?
If you dare to go to His Majesty to ask for money, His Majesty will start to investigate two pieces of silver. Do you still want your head?"
"This... ugh! We suffered a big loss this time!"
The officials gnashed their teeth one by one, wanting to kill Lin Fan and get the money back.
This is not the most important thing. They have not received their salary for two consecutive months. If this continues, they will have no choice but to rest on their laurels!
"Sir, we Jin Yiwei have already inspected the gambling houses in the capital, and have notified them to meet you at the Lin Mansion tonight."
In the Jinyiwei Yamen, several Jinyiwei knelt on the ground to report.
Lin Fan nodded with satisfaction and said: "Very good! Next, each of you will bring five hundred guards in royal robes to visit every city in my Ming Dynasty and bring to me all those who have opened gambling houses."
"Yes! Sir!"
Jin Yiwei took the order.
The reason why Lin Fan wanted to meet these people who opened gambling houses was naturally to get money. He didn't care who was standing behind these people. In short, he had to give him 30% of the money.
Otherwise, I will investigate all their gambling houses!
Those who opened gambling rooms had been warned by the Jin Yiwei, so they naturally did not dare to let Lin Fan go. At night, they all came to the door honestly with gifts.
