Because of the same score, 17 people advanced to the second round.

Those who can enter the second round have a good shooting skill.

Sean looked around and saw that all four of the Bess Company's seeded players had made the cut, which would greatly increase the chances of getting a better place.

The second round, also 20 minutes, 10 rounds of ammunition per person, 200 meters chest target. Most of the shooters changed a flint, which is a consumable, but if it was a new flint before coming to the manor, there really wasn't a need to be so serious at this time.

The shooters were preoccupied and spent significantly more time reloading than in the previous round, where several men were dumbfounded.

Sean was neither fast nor slow, with six 10-rings, two nine-rings and two eight-rings. This is Sean's first time using this new rifle, although this gun is not unfamiliar, but compared to other shooters, this is not what he is used to after all, and it is beyond his expectations to be able to hit such a result.

However, his score was only 5th, and the second prince's score was 4th, only 1 ring more than him. The four Gunners of the Bess Company finished 1st, 2nd, 7th and 8th, with the 1st place receiving an astonishing result of 10 10 rings, although there is a lot of luck involved, but with Sean's 5th place, this overall result is amazing.

In terms of precision shooting, the Bess Type 1830 rifle showed excellent performance.

"I'm sorry, Sean, I won. The second prince said to Sean with a smile.

"Congratulations, Your Highness!" Sean congratulated heartily.

The rifled gun of the second prince must be a thousand choices, and the lead shot is also specially made, and there is a ring belt on the bullet body that can squeeze into the rifling, which may be customized for him by the most clever gunsmith, but if the shooter is not good, it is also a high probability that all the shots will miss the target.

"Then, Mr. Sean Connery, the Royal Society of Science welcomes you to join. ”

"I am honored, Your Highness!"

"I feel like that was my biggest takeaway today. ”

"Your Highness, I can't afford your praise. The enthusiasm shown by the second prince surprised Sean.

"You can afford it, the chancellor said, adding that the wine industry in northern Xinjiang alone, benefiting from the Conn sterilization method, will directly increase tax revenue by at least 1 million yuan next year, not to mention the resulting increase in production activities and other transactions. The second prince said seriously, "I can't help but convince myself that this guy named Sean Connery must be a member of the Royal Society of Science and be eligible for an annuity of 1,000 per year. ”

From the heart, Sean doesn't want to have anything to do with the royal family, but although the commoners in this era enjoy freedom that they did not have before, there is still a natural gap between the commoners and the nobility.

If Sean were to be granted membership of the Royal Society of Science, that status would be part of the privilege in a sense, at least in the face of the tax collector who came to his door, and he dared his servants to say to him:

The host is not at home, come back next time.

The game was over, everyone stopped, took the hot towel from the servant, wiped their faces, ate some food, and one of the greedy cups had been carried away by their own servants.

Sean noticed that several young nobles were flirting with other noblewomen, and one of them went into the grove with them.

Even Sean saw someone addicted to opium and was hiding to the side enjoying the clouds.

Except for Sean, everyone else is not surprised.

"Got one?"

Bass walked over and pulled out a cigar.

"Thank you!" Sean took it.

"It seems that you are quite accustomed to this kind of occasion, and I see that you are very happy to talk to the prince, you know? Bess exaggerated.

"In fact, I didn't do anything. Sean shrugged and said, "What about you, I noticed that you were talking to the quartermaster's chief of the Military Command Department, right?"

"yes, that guy is tough, and you'll never get a letter out of his mouth. But our rifles have already made a name for themselves, and I have to worry about the question of how many orders there are. Bess said confidently, "Speaking of which, I thank you again. ”

"You know, I just came up with an idea, and you've paid for it. Sean said.

"But your novel has a much greater impact, as far as I know, the quartermaster officers in the Military Command Department have been overwhelmed by questions about why they give inferior weapons to soldiers. Bess replied.

"Do you want to pay again?" asked Sean.

"Don't even think about it!" Bess immediately showed his merchant instincts, "I only pay for contracts, this one is not among them." ”

"Don't be nervous, I'm just saying it casually. Sean said, "By the way, I've just been accepted as a member of the Royal Society of Science, and I'm probably going to visit the Holy City once a year, so I'd like to buy a property here, do you have any suggestions?"

"Oh my God, Sean, do you know what that means? You've stepped into a closed elite circle. The thought that you are only 19 years old makes me jealous to death. Bess said half-jokingly, half-seriously, "If you really want to own a property in the Holy City, it's up to me." But real estate in the Holy City is really not cheap, and those real estate developers are the best at speculating on land, I mean the property that matches your status as a member of the Royal Science Society. ”

Bess said: "A decent set, with a small garden, it is worth at least 20,000 gold louis, you have to hire a few servants, no one of the superior people will personally clean the house, drive the carriage by himself, feed the horses by himself, wash and cook by himself, my family has a cook who is proficient in the cooking of the Great Xia Kingdom......"

Sean interrupted him: "Okay, this is set aside beforehand. I'll talk about it when I've made enough money. ”

"Sean, invest early, as far as I know, your bank balance is no less than mine, I mean the cash that can be taken out at one time, excluding real estate. Bess questioned, "I happen to have a property in hand, it's next to Quds University, it's a civilized neighborhood, and when I open the window, I can see the majestic White House......"

"How much? Sean said directly.

"Well, Sean, do you feel how I felt when I took the check from me?"

"No merit is not worthless. ”

Sean didn't want to take advantage of him, especially as a businessman.

"No, no, Sean, I'm a principled businessman, just because you talked so well with His Royal Highness the Second Prince today, and let my deliberate game go so smoothly, it's worth the price.

Okay, I'll ask the housekeeper to deliver the deed to you tomorrow, but you have to pay the deed tax yourself. Again, I am a principled businessman, and the property that has been taxed is my real property. ”

Bess spoke categorically, patted his buttocks, and went to make friends with dignitaries and nobles.

Sean doesn't think that Bess is naturally benevolent, but this person is principled and personable, and he doesn't drag things out, such as giving away benefits to the end. Such a person can often do a lot of business, because others will naturally think that it is not a loss to associate with him.

Of course, this can also be a delusion. When you have a fundamental conflict of interest with him, he will not hesitate to strike at you.

Sean wanted to be such a big boss before, but in the end he became a speculator who was hated by everyone.

There is no less money to be made, but there is not much popularity.
