If this is one of the two kings of Jiangning in the team.
Facing the Tiger Crouching Cannon...
I can’t imagine the consequences.
"My lord, do you want to try the musket?"
After firing a few rounds, Yu Ming suggested.
Musket production is extremely slow.
It has been almost two months since the first musket was born, and only ten of them have been produced.
The main reason is that the barrel is too difficult to work with.
"Try it!"
Song Yang nodded.
The muskets were brought, twelve in all.
This time Song Yang personally directed.
Directly divided into three groups, one group of four people.
Launch alternately.
After the first row has finished fighting, it will retreat to the end, and after the second row has finished fighting, it will retreat, and so on.
Although the number of muskets is small, the time to equip them is relatively early.
These twelve warriors are already skilled in using muskets to attack.
After playing a few rounds, Song Yang looked at everyone with satisfaction and said, "How is it?"
"It's really flexible!"
"The musket can be fired while running away, or it can be used to hide in the corner for sneak attacks."
"Yes, this thing is too mobile. If it can be equipped with an army, the effect will not be worse than the Tiger Crouching Cannon."
Everyone is very discerning and can basically see the advantages of muskets.
Although the Tiger Crouching Cannon is powerful, it still weighs forty pounds.
It's still a bit awkward to move around.
Moreover, once the number of muskets catches up, their power is not small, and they can be fired at will.
"Wars in the future will be a war model in which artillery and muskets coexist."
"If these two arms work well together, they can attack any enemy."
Song Yang looked at the crowd and said, "We in Jiangzhou have these two weapons, what enemies do we have to fear?"
"My lord is mighty!"
Everyone shouted in unison.
As everyone understands, with the birth of the Crouching Tiger Cannon and the Musket, Jiangzhou will surely become the most powerful force in the world.
Revival is just around the corner.
…
Return to Xincheng from the shooting range.
Liu Min couldn't calm down for a long time.
He really couldn't figure out how Song Yang came up with such a magical weapon.
Liu Min already admired this young prince.
"Master Liu, let Fang Zhe take you to the city later. If you don't understand anything, just ask him directly."
Back in the office, Song Yang smiled and said to Liu Min that Song Yang had already talked with Liu Min about the basic situation in Xuanzhou.
There are some things that need to be ordered before we can discuss them until we have seen the development of Jiangzhou with the refugees.
You must first let Liu Min know the current direction of Jiangzhou's development and its development into the city before you can talk to him about Xuanzhou's development goals.
Of course Liu Min also understood that he also wanted to get to know Jiangzhou as soon as possible, so he apologized and left with Fang Zhe.
…
Supply and marketing cooperative.
Fang Zhe brought Liu Min here first.
Although the state of emergency has been cancelled, various ticket systems will continue to be implemented.
The counterpart to the ticket system is of course the supply and marketing cooperative.
Looking at the dazzling array of products, Liu Min was stunned for a while, feeling like she was back before the disaster.
The supply and marketing cooperatives in Jiangzhou are a bit like the old North-South goods.
But the scale is larger and the products are more complete.
After the establishment of the alliance, commerce in various places has begun.
In the middle of the month, the first batch of cargo ships brought special products from other prefectures and counties.
What the Jiangzhou magistrate needs is weapons and armor.
In terms of military production, Jiangzhou is the leader.
Especially after the Daye Iron Mine began to be mined, Jiangzhou's iron supply was definitely the first in the world.
With sufficient materials, Song Yang also stepped up the training of craftsmen.
Now there are nearly a thousand non-professional blacksmiths.
They are all ordinary people in Jiangzhou. After the farming slack, they make extra money by making weapons.
The operation steps are as follows: first buy iron ingots from the supply and marketing cooperative, then go home and turn them into weapons and sell them to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Some people have questioned before, fearing that everyone has weapons, which is a destabilizing factor.
But Song Yang didn't care.
Because there are only a few weapons that the common people can make.
After all, the number of tickets for exchanging weapons is limited.
Each family can make three or four weapons with the iron tickets they receive every month.
The supply and marketing cooperative will also take back finished weapons at high prices.
Of course, Song Yang also trusted himself very much, and the people respected and loved him, so how could they rebel against him?
Facts have proved that Song Yang was right. According to statistics from the supply and marketing cooperatives, more than 95% of the people sold the forged weapons to the supply and marketing cooperatives.
For the remaining five percent, you don’t have to make weapons after receiving iron ingots. Kitchen knives, farm tools, and tools also need iron...
In short, through this private production method, Jiangzhou officials obtained a large number of weapons.
Eventually they were all sold to other alliance members.
Not to mention how good the weapons made by the common people are.
But being able to kill people is a good thing.
The world is like this, do we still need any magic weapon?
This is how the products from other regions displayed at the supply and marketing cooperative Liu Min saw.
"Master Liu, look at these tickets. This thing is easy to carry and easy to use. It will be popular for some time in the future." Fang Zhe took a few tickets to Liu Min.
The refugee looked at the tickets and thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty has foresight. Once the people get used to using tickets, even if paper currency is introduced in the future, it will be quickly recognized!"
Liu Min took a longer-term view, and even Song Yang didn't expect this.
"Banknotes?" Fang Zhe was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up.
He also understood.
Can't a ticket also be regarded as a kind of banknote?
The dynasties before Da Qian also issued banknotes.
Because there was not enough copper, paper money was issued, but the results were not ideal.
After less than a year of circulation, various problems emerged and the implementation had to be abandoned.
Fang Zhe also knew about this, but he was not optimistic about banknotes either.
Until now, Liu Min associates tickets and banknotes together.
If the people can accept tickets, they will definitely recognize banknotes.
In the future, banknotes will be used to replace tickets, and their circulation will be much higher than tickets.
"So that's what the prince thinks!" Fang Zhe said with emotion.
He thought Song Yang had thought of it and didn't tell them.
In fact, Song Yang didn't expect...
"Your Majesty's talents are not something that we can arbitrarily guess. As long as we follow your footsteps closely, we will definitely be able to regain our great glory in the future!"
Liu Min said with confidence.
After trying the artillery and looking at the supply and marketing cooperative, Liu Min and even his future cadre must come from Jiangzhou Longxing.
"Let's go! The sun will set soon. Let's make one more stop and take you to various factories."
Fang Zhe took Liu Min around for a day and a half.
I saw the supply and marketing cooperative, factory area, living area, livestock area, and two docks.
Even the Jiangbei defense system went around for a while.
For more than a day, Liu Min was filled with emotions.
Liu Min admired Jiangzhou's development.
He originally thought that Xuanzhou had done quite well in restoring people's livelihood.
But compared with Jiangzhou, it's not even a little bit behind.
There is simply no comparison.
"Your Majesty is a great talent!"
"Your Majesty is so talented!"
In the end, Liu Min could only sigh deeply, and firmly determined to follow Song Yang.
