Chapter 50: Overwhelmed

Xiao Lin experimented for a long time, roasting it with fire, pouring it with water, and even using a connecting wire, and the gold coin had a little reaction. Eventually, he discovered the secret of the gold coin, but it almost turned his worldview upside down. Xiao Lin looked up the information and learned that this gold coin was used by the Inca Empire to worship the sun god. Other methods didn't work, so he thought, try the sun and don't know if it will work. One day, when the sun was just right, Xiao Lin took out the gold coin and used a magnifying glass to gather sunlight and project it onto the gold coin.

Unexpectedly, this is still crooked. As the sunlight shines on, the coin once again appears with a blue arc of light, which is small at first and gradually grows larger. When it expands to the size of a thin noodle, the size of the arc does not change. Instead, a new arc of light is formed, which is originally submerged into the surface of the coin, forming a thin blue line. Under the second blue arc of light, Xiao Lin found that it would take about twelve arcs of light to complete the charging process.

However, this uses an extra-large high-powered magnifying glass and a variety of fire-grilling utensils to complete one in a day. If it's cloudy, it will take two days to complete one. If you want to open the portal again, it will take a month. Xiao Lin didn't know, in fact, three of a kind can be opened, which is also the most basic, but at this level, he can only let him enter alone. Each time you have more, you can bring something ten cubic meters over.

The gold coin charge is solved, but how to open the gate of time and space at this time still needs to be studied and studied. The space-time portal was opened twice, once unconsciously after he was drunk, and once when he was chased by a black bear, which suddenly opened and saved his life. Although Xiao Lin was drunk at that time, he still had an idea in his heart to find a solution to the factory's predicament. And the time he was chased and killed, all he thought was to escape safely.

It seems that this is started by one's own thinking. Holding the gold coin, Shoren uses self-taught self-hypnosis to imply that he just wants to return to the American continent. Finally abandoning the rest of the distractions, the arc of light on the gold coin began to converge into a dot and then flew out. Just as he was about to form a space-time gate, Xiao Lin's mind was turbulent and disappeared in one fell swoop. Fortunately, he has no plans to return to the American continent now.

The factory has not had much business for a long time, just relying on providing some parts to the motorcycle repair shops in the village. Xiao Lin's business is like pouring a dry well into a clear spring. Under the auspices of Qu Zhenguo, the remaining fifty-one workers in the factory, all with hope, began to modify the old machine tools. 200,000, 150,000 is necessary for several modifications and the purchase of raw materials. The remaining 50,000 is everyone's bonus. The salary is still not repaid, but with this money, everyone believes in the authenticity of the deal.

Tang knives are not difficult to forge, as long as there is good steel, cut the appropriate length. Use a lathe to grind to one end thick and one end thin, and then polish the edge. Then install the wooden-handled scabbard, and then carefully deal with the details, it is a Tang knife that cannot be seen in the Tang Dynasty. However, the solidity of this forged Tang knife only depends on the raw materials. If there is high-quality steel, it is absolutely better than the refined Tang knife of the Tang Dynasty, if the steel is not good, it will not take long to be damaged.

However, this compound bow will not work. There are example pictures of bow and arrow frames everywhere on the Internet, just choose a good one and copy it, and you can assemble it with a few pieces of wrought steel and wood. The reason why plastic is not used is because the factory is not able to manufacture that kind of high-strength plastic. And the price is too high, now the 150,000 is not enough to spend. However, in order to achieve the range of one hundred and fifty meters required by Xiao Lin, the requirements for the bowstring are still very high.

The ancient primitive bow-making material was a single material, made of bamboo and wood, and later developed into composite materials, which were generally composed of animal horns, tendons, bamboo wood, silk, lacquer, glue, etc. Bowstrings are generally made of beef tendons. And now the strings of the bow and crossbow are all steel wires, and several steel wires are entangled together. For steel wire, it requires strength, which cannot be pulled off after a few pulls, and must also have toughness, and it cannot be changed back if it is not pulled away.

There's never been anything like this in the factory, so it's stuck here. Xiao Lin is also in a hurry, and the longer this drags on, the more money is spent. The little money in the factory, plus Xiao Lin's resettlement fee, can't afford to spend a few days. In the end, there was really no choice but to purchase other people's bowstrings. There are now those that specialize in this, and they specialize in providing bowstrings for making tournament bows and hunting bows. The price is not very high and the quality is good. That is, to show proof of production.

If this is made into a strong bow, the arrow will be able to be made by itself. Although bows and crossbows have been reduced to recreational tools with the development of firearms, if they are close enough, they can still hurt and even kill. Therefore, supporting documents are required. There is no way, Xiao Lin can only run the formalities by himself, but fortunately, he still has a little such a relationship in his hands. When I was on a mission for the first time, I saved an old policeman, but later I heard that my physical injuries had recurred and I couldn't stay on the front line, so I was transferred to the Administrative Examination and Approval Department as a section chief. I heard that they are all working here now.

This life-saving grace is quite great. However, Xiao Lin had a tender face and never wanted to go to him. Now I have been forced to have no choice but to use this relationship. Xiao Lin thought about it, and directly gave the proof of the production of weapons from the World War II era, all in the name of filming props. Xiao Lin is not afraid that someone will come to check whether it is really used as a filming prop, anyway, these things are going to be transported to the American continent, and no one can trace where they went.

One hundred and fifty Tang knives, one hundred and fifty strong bows of modern craftsmanship disguised as Tang Dynasty war bows, three hundred wholesale fruit knives, a change of clothes, firewood, rice, oil and salt, and various gifts for pearls and Sai Qunxiong, these are the things that Xiao Lin intends to bring to the American continent. It took a medium-duty truck to load everything. Three months later, taking advantage of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, a sunny day, Xiao Lin drove off like this. As soon as you get out of the highway, drive directly to a remote place.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Shawlin drove onto a country road. There is no light at all around, and the nearest residents are more than 1,000 meters away. Sholin waited until the lights were out and he went to bed before he started moving. He had tried three times in the past three months, and he knew that this volume was completely capable of passing through the space-time gate opened by fully charged gold coins. In a few minutes, Xiao Lin disappeared from the 21st century China again. In the 21st century, it was late at night, and in the 18th century, it was the beginning of dawn. Xiao Lin is the first time to see such a magnificent sunrise.

When I returned to the tribe again, it was exactly noon, and at this time, the warriors who had gone out hunting also came back for lunch. Because of the limited productivity, they could not afford to eat three meals a day, come together in the morning and go out to work, and only have a little rest time at noon.

The people of the Indian tribes had never seen a wagon, and of course, not in this era. The people of this tribe are, in Xiao Lin's opinion, the kind of isolation from the world, not to mention the things of modern society, they have not even been exposed to white people, otherwise it would not be possible not to have a refined steel weapon. The wagon driven by Xiao Lin was, in their opinion, a huge beast, and one by one the warriors rushed out of the hut, armed with stone axes and wooden bows, and gathered in front of the wagon.

"Friend, friend, don't attack, it's me. ”

Seeing that the Indian warriors were about to attack, Sholin hurriedly stuck his head out of the stopped wagons and shouted at them in the Indian language. The Indian warriors who were nervously confronting the unknown beast were very strange, didn't this man suddenly disappear? For three days, everyone thought that this man was dead.

"Brother, you're all right. You were being chased by a grizzly bear, and by the time we got there, you were all gone, and I thought you were dead. ”

A tall warrior walked out, put away the bow and arrow in his hand, and came up and hugged Xiao Lin and slapped it several times.

"Alright, alright, Apache, I'm back to my hometown. ”

"Oh, it's your tribe. ”

"Well, well, how do you say that? Sort of, my hometown is a very powerful place that can make very advanced tools. ”

"Oh, I don't know what's good?"

"Hehe, you'll love it, it's all good swords and bows. Brother, look, can you let everyone disperse, I'll drive the car into the tribe. ”

"The car?"

"Yes, you can think of it as a wheelbarrow, and everything I'm going to trade with you is in the car. ”

Apache watched Sholin drive the car into the tribe, so he pushed the onlookers away and hurried towards the tribe, surely to find his father, the Eagle Patriarch. Xiao Lin simply stopped and turned off the engine here, got out of the car and opened the cargo box. Three Tang knives and three sets of compound bows were selected as samples for the onlookers to see.

In order to demonstrate the power of the weapon, Sholin spoke to the Indian warriors, and a wooden stake was raised. Xiao Lin first took the Tang knife and slashed at the wood, but as a result, half of the blade entered in one fell swoop. Then he took his bow and arrows and walked to a place about a hundred and fifty away from the stake, drew his composite bow, and shot an arrow at the stake, and some Indian warriors ran to look at it, only to find that the small half of the arrow had sunk directly into the stump. The powerful power of the Tang knife and compound bow amazed all the Indian warriors present.

As soon as Xiao Lin finished the demonstration, a middle-aged man rushed up, holding a compound bow and gently rubbing it as if he was holding his lover. It was the first time Xiao Lin had seen the eagle, and the last time he lived here for more than half a month, the two had never even met once. Now it seems that he is also a hot-blooded warrior type character, and he loves powerful weapons to the extreme.

"Boy, how do you sell these weapons?"

When Xiao Lin heard this, he showed a treacherous smile, if his comrades-in-arms saw it, they would know that this girl was going to start pheating people again. The people of the Eagle Tribe are not that kind of bandit character. If you have something you want, you will still offer to barter first, and the price given is still very good. Someone saw Xiao Lin's watch before and proposed to exchange it for ten pieces of fur, which would be more than 500,000 yuan in the 21st century. Xiao Lin's watch is only worth 5,000 yuan, but because it was given by his comrades-in-arms, it is commemorative, so Xiao Lin did not change it.

However, he believes that these weapons, which enhance their combat capabilities, can sell for a large amount of money compared to flashy watches. Although the unit price is not high, it can't stand a large amount.

"Three pieces of fur for a sword, six pieces of fur for a bow and twenty iron arrows. Well, the price isn't too high. ”

"It's quite affordable, can you be sure that each one is as strong as the one you just showed?"

"Of course, Tong Su is not bullied, if there is a problem, I can return it. ”

"Okay, but our tribe doesn't have that many skins. I don't know, do you collect gold?"

"Gold! yes, yes. Is it gold or gold ore?"

"Ore. ”

"Okay, a fist-sized piece of gold ore is worth two skins, okay?"

Shoren also wanted to try it and see if they knew the value of the gold ore. A fist-sized piece of gold ore weighs almost 3 catties, which is 1,500 grams. Even according to the raw ore processing price of 100 yuan per gram, it is 150,000 yuan, which is a lot of money. However, the Eagle Patriarch immediately refused.

"You kid is not honest, don't think I don't know the value of gold. In this way, one fist-sized piece of gold ore is worth three skins. ”

"Okay, I accept. ”

"Well, okay, that's it, let's start trading right away. ”

One old and one young, just negotiated business. The eagle only knows that gold ore is quite precious, but he really doesn't know what the specific value is. Seeing that Xiao Lin agreed so happily, he always felt as if he had suffered a loss. Still, he accepted the price. Xiao Lin didn't know that there was a medium-sized gold mine near the Eagle Tribe, and even if it was a backward tool of the Eagle Tribe, a strong laborer could collect a fist-sized gold ore in a day.

Seeing that the patriarch and Xiao Lin had negotiated the price, the tribal warriors dispersed in a hurry. Before Xiao Lin could react, a group of people ran back with all kinds of furs. The enthusiastic warriors swarmed up, almost drowning Xiao Lin away. Xiao Lin hurriedly pulled the Apache and Pearl, and hired them to help count the number of furs with a Tang knife and a composite bow for each person. The people of the Eagle Tribe are not easy to deceive, they know which furs are very valuable, and Xiao Lin does not dare to cheat people, this is not a hammer deal.

"Coyote, ten whole furs, well, take note. What do you want?"

"A knife, a long knife, and a set of bows and arrows. ”

"Okay, these are your stuff, put them away. ”

Xiao Lin happily started his business. Although Tang knives and compound bows were not sold at too high prices, those fruit knives were a piece of fur, and the cost of a few dollars in exchange for a minimum of thousands of pieces of fur was really profitable. On the first day, Xiao Lin was busy until late at night, and half of the contents of the truck were sold out. There are only more than 20 fruit knives, Xiao Lin calculated, just today he made about two million things, and the whole person was extremely excited.
