Early the next morning, Lawrence was awakened by the sound of the factory's whistle. Because he still had some things to do in the morning, he simply got up from the bed. After cleaning up briefly, he opened the door and left.
Then he went out and then went downstairs with Saifei, who went out almost at the same time.
"Successful, I made it." Just when the two people just walked out of the building, the dwarf Ou Ren ran over with excitement. "I made the weapon in the picture yesterday."
After the short figure came closer, Lawrence realized that his hair and beard looked messy, and his shirt and leather apron were also full of stains left from various metal processing. It seemed that after getting the drawings
Eugène was busy all night after that, and this morning as soon as the things were finished, he ran over to inform Lawrence of the good news.
"The design of this thing is really ingenious, and it's very simple to make. I swear it definitely meets the needs of the military. It's really a genius design -" Eugene said with excitement immediately after seeing Lawrence.
Thanks to the fact that he is not only a dwarf but also a supernatural being, he has a much stronger body than normal people. Otherwise, a person like him who stayed up late and did heavy physical work all night would never be as energetic as he is now.
.
Following Ou Ren's chatter along the way, they arrived at a factory. In the factory, except for a few workers who were standing by a bullet production line assembling bullets, other workers who had no work for the time being gathered around to look at something.
"Everyone, give in a little bit. I called the designer and asked him to come over and help us see if there are any shortcomings in this thing." Ou Ren shouted loudly. As soon as he finished speaking, the workers
A gap was opened, revealing the artillery that they had watched before.
This is an artillery piece that looks very different from today's artillery pieces. First of all, in terms of size, this is a little guy that only reaches the height of a person's waist. It looks much smaller than ordinary artillery pieces.
Secondly, the structure of this artillery is extremely simple. In addition to a barrel, it is an iron plate fixed at the rear of the gun, a tripod that lifts the muzzle through a somewhat complicated-looking part, and a bracket fixed on the left side of the muzzle.
Very simple iron sight on the side.
Finally, the wall of the barrel of this artillery is very thin. This means that although the barrel does not look very thick, the caliber is much larger than that of similar artillery.
"A very good artillery piece." Lawrence nodded and said after circling the artillery twice. He found that the artillery in front of him looked almost the same as the World War II mortars he remembered. But after he looked carefully
After looking at the sight, he asked with some confusion, "But how did you get the shooting table on this sight?"
"Actually, we built this cannon more than four hours ago." A worker wearing blue denim work clothes said, "Then we rowed the cannon with Brother Ou Ren.
Go to the small island in front to test-fire, and these data are all obtained during the test-fire."
"It's really too dangerous for you." Saifei seemed a little excited after hearing what the worker said, because although the island he mentioned can be seen from inside the factory, it is still three or four kilometers away from them. More importantly,
The thing is, although this island is in an inland bay, there is a high possibility of encountering a murloc commando at this time.
"It's okay, little girl, don't we still have this?" The worker uncle said and patted the mortar. Maybe because Saifei was too young, the uncle subconsciously thought of her as himself.
A child of my daughter's age. "We did encounter a group of more than a dozen murlocs during the cannon test, but our boss's skills in using the cannon were very good. Only two or three were left alive after one cannon shell passed by. As a result, we easily used the gun."
nailed it."
"Yes, yes, there is not much danger." The dwarf Ou Ren also agreed, "The reason why I was attacked that day was purely because I went to the headquarters to discuss business, and I only carried a small-power pocket pistol with me. If I
If you are fully armed, you will definitely not be caught by those smelly fish——"
After everyone got together and talked for a while, Lawrence and the others came to an office on the second floor with Ou Ren. After closing the door, Ou Ren looked at Lawrence and said, "My friend, I believe this thing will definitely work."
Adopted by the military. So please tell me what do I have to pay to get this design?"
"Well - I want to buy a stake in your factory through this? Of course, I only need half of the shares at most, and I don't ask for management rights except for normal audits." Lawrence said straightforwardly, having obtained sweetness from the manufacturing industry before.
After that, he now has a very strong interest in investing in this kind of factory.
"This -" After hearing Lawrence's request, Ou Ren showed an embarrassed look, and Lawrence quickly said. "Of course, I can also understand that your factory is like your child. If you are not happy, then forget it.
Yes, we can think of other trading methods."
"It's not that I'm reluctant to sell you the shares of this factory." Ou Ren showed a wry smile. "But you have also seen that although my factory is barely visible in terms of scale, it is now in a very serious situation.
In a difficult situation. I think its shares are probably not as good as your design, and I would be sorry for you if it were traded."
"Hey, what did I think it was?" Lawrence smiled after hearing what Ou Ren said. The dwarf Ou Ren lived up to his reputation of being loyal and honest, and he could still think of these things at this time. "Anyway, you are trading.
Zhong also did not lie to me about the problems faced by the factory, but my judgment on the current situation is different from yours. I think it is a very worthwhile thing to acquire shares in the factory now, not to mention I am optimistic about the future of this factory."
After all, this is a factory named after Bofors. From a metaphysical point of view, Lawrence believes that if it produces weapons, it will definitely be able to make a name for itself.
"Thank you, thank you." After listening to Lawrence's words, Ou Ren shook his hand vigorously, with tears oozing out of the corners of his eyes. After he calmed down, Lawrence and he began to plan the next move.
After serious discussions, Lawrence and Saifei exchanged 50% of the shares of the Bofors factory for 50% of the shares of the Bofors factory with new weapon designs and trophies worth 4,200 yuan seized in the previous battle with the fishmen. Saifei believed that he had
He did not contribute much in the process of rescuing people and obtaining loot, so he only asked for 3% of the stock dividend rights from Lawrence.
After the shares were arranged, Eugene immediately began to organize workers to produce artillery and ammunition. According to the plan, they would produce 10 mortars and 500 rounds of artillery shells in one day with the full help of Eugene.
Lawrence and Saifer went directly to the military's scientific research institute to find Kaug, hoping that he could help them obtain a demonstration opportunity.
"That's no problem. In fact, we have been having a headache recently." Cog said bluntly after hearing Lawrence's request. "The fish people and many wilderness races are actually not very strong, but their numbers are too large.
More. The firepower of the basic infantry units is indeed insufficient when facing this situation. If your weapons are as effective as you say, I believe you will have a steady stream of orders."
What happened in the next few days also proved that Kauger's guess was completely correct. After discovering that this kind of mortar is not only cheap and easy to produce, it can also follow the maneuver of infantry units and has a weapon that is as good as large-caliber against wilderness races.
When the lethality of heavy artillery increased, military orders immediately flew to the Bofors factory in a steady stream.
Using the large deposits previously paid by the military, the Bofors factory quickly merged with several other poorly operating factories and began to continuously provide the military with such weapons. Lawrence's status as a member of the Commonwealth Scientific Society and the Oren Volcano
The family background also forces those who want to use evil thoughts to retract their claws.
