Although Du Qingyuan's musket that can kill the grandmaster is still in the state of development, the transformation of the musket has been put forward in the past few months, and it is still quite smooth, and it has been improved from an arquebus to a flintlock breech gun. Some of the Xuanyi who went out this time were carrying breech guns, and I heard that the effect was good.

In the past, because of the strength of this world, Li Le had never paid attention to the improvement of firearms, but after that conversation with Du Qingyuan in the Barren Mountain of Beixiao, he realized this problem. The improvement of firearms may play a very limited role in martial arts battles, but for large-scale corps operations, it can play an immeasurable role.

Jiangmen has their own information channels, and it is only right that Xuanyi is equipped with a new musket to be discovered by them. These privy envoys and generals, regardless of their own martial arts cultivation, are all commanders of the first army who have fought for half their lives, and their strategic vision is needless to say.

What does the new musket, which has a faster rate of fire, less likely to explode, and more stable, and where do they not understand what it means?

Li Le smiled slightly, and said: "New firearms, some of them are, but the effect of this thing is actually not great, any second-rate master can avoid it, and Xuanyi only plans to use this thing as a secret weapon in the future, and is not ready for mass production." The cost is too high, a gun costs twenty taels of silver, and it is really not cost-effective to equip it, and Xuanyi is only used by some members of the special operation. What, the border army wants?"

Zuo Zhongtang froze slightly, and then said with a smile: "Since the discussion has been opened, then a certain family will not buy Guanzi, a gun of twenty taels of silver is too expensive, even if it is a hundred steel knives, it is only one or two or five yuan, you are a little too much to open your mouth like this......"

Then the two began to discuss the transaction of the new musket, and finally Zuo Zhongtang won the order for 200,000 guns at the price of ten taels of silver each, two million taels of silver, which is really not a small amount for the Nine Legions.

After all, an iron blade knife that can kill people is only twenty-five cents......

The two of them didn't mention anything like Jiangmen taking over the Forbidden Army's Governor's Capital, Zuo Zhongtang's mention of this matter today certainly represents Jiangmen's goodwill to the Forbidden Army, but it also has a hint of threat.

A certain squire of the military department representing the Xungui group has already taken over the Xuanyi Forbidden Army, and there are also people in the civilian system who are fighting this idea, so why not take this opportunity to pick peaches from Jiangmen? It's just that Jiangmen still has a good impression of the forbidden army, especially you, Li Zhi'an, but Jiangmen also has his own interests.

This is what Zuo Zhongtang wants to express here, and the gun in the back hall is what the gate needs at the moment, and that thing does not dare to let the craftsmen of the military department to get it, first, they don't have the design drawings, and second, even if they have drawings, but those people have become accustomed to cutting corners, who dares to use the things they make?

Jiangmen didn't dare to make weapons privately, so he could only collude with the military department and buy new muskets from Xuanyi.

A new type of firearm is ten taels of silver, which naturally includes "after-sales service", such as the supply of projectiles, the standardization of gunpowder measurement, and so on.

In the end, Li Le also took out the formation diagram of the "three-hit section" and "four-hit section" of the gun array, and Zuo Zhongtang naturally accepted it with a smile, and praised nonsense such as "Li Sanzi is really talented".

In fact, the cost of a breech gun is at most two dollars of silver, but they know each other tacitly.

A transaction from noon to the end of the day, Li Le sent Zuo Zhongtang out of the house, parting Zuo Zhongtang said: "Let a certain family come to you to talk about these things, in fact, it is the old Xianggong's meaning, the old Xianggong's plan is actually very simple, one is to borrow Zuo someone's eyes, to see what the young man who dares to risk the world's disapproval to inspect the world's affairs is like." Second, hehe, it's a musket. Now that both things have been done, Zuo can be regarded as having completed his mission. ”

As he spoke, Zuo Zhongtang got into the carriage.

Li Le's brows furrowed.

The old minister, naturally, has now received the Great Privy Counsel with Yu Jiechen, crowned the crown prince and the prince, and inherited the remnants of the general of the Fenglin Army.

There are two types of wind forest army, the old species and the small species. The old species, the small species, the small species, the inheritance, their ancestors were the descendants of the former Song and Western military families, the descendants of the Taoist Plant, and later participated in the anti-Jin Yi Army and served beside the Emperor Taizu of the Great Shang.

The farmer is also the oldest Jiangmen of the Great Shang.

Whether it is the four surnamed families, or other generals and strategists of Nakun Ling when Taizu raised his army, their descendants withdrew from the army after the establishment of the Great Shang Dynasty and became a grandfather and a famous family.

But only the family, although the hereditary appeasement marquis, the children of the family have been continuously involved in the military for more than two hundred years since the establishment of the Great Shang State, and they still started from a small pawn.

During this period, there were countless deaths in the direct bloodline of the seed family, and even many outstanding characters died in the battle array, but the old breeder persevered, so that now, no matter what the official position of the breed family is, under the accumulation of more than two hundred years, they have become well-deserved leaders of the generals, mixed army, who does not say: Seed family, there is a kind!

The old breeder, more than 200 years of generals......

Looking at Zuo Zhongtang's carriage in the distance, Li Le's eyes narrowed.

After a while, he just smiled and went back to the house.

As he walked, he said to the old housekeeper: "Send a message to Xichao, the farmer has made a move...... Wait, this is just the meaning of the old species, and the small species has not yet moved. It'......"

Li Le stopped, frowned, and remained silent for a long time.

After a while, Zhao An was puzzled: "There are nine families in Jiangmen, and the family has the deepest heritage, they want to participate, this is ......"

Li Le shook his head and said, "The plate is too big, even a dog wants to bite it...... I just don't know if this is the meaning of the family or the meaning of the whole Jiangmen......"

After he said these words to Zhao An, he shook his head and headed towards the mansion.

When passing through a courtyard, he saw Miao Yan walking towards him, and behind Miao Yan, he was still followed by the monk of the Bitter Mirror who was protecting him.

"Zhi'an, I happened to meet you, I was relieved to see that you were okay these days, and it was time to leave, you have remembered the smell of the eagle, and it did not hurt its life, my heart is happy to ......"

During the battle for the throne at the beginning of the year, Miao Yan went to the capital, but only asked Mei Xiangzhu to bring Li Le a "geographical map", and the two did not meet, which made Li Le regretful.

The arrival of the wonderful words a few days ago gave him a big surprise, the old people have not seen each other for many years, but when they meet again, they have grown up with each other. The monk's temperament became more and more ethereal, and Li Le felt that he was a little ashamed of himself when he stood with him.

At that time, Miao Yan said that he came here to send this eagle to Li Le, which was what the old Zen master meant, and the old Zen master said that Li Le would eat the eagle and remember the taste of the eagle, so there would be no other instructions. And the wonderful words are that I heard that Li Le has not been doing well recently, and his martial arts have been abolished, so he plans to stay to protect him.

Such a simple statement that sounded funny, but it made Li Le's heart warm, so he didn't hide it, and told him truthfully about his current state, and the wonderful words were relieved.

The two of them had said something about each other over the years, and then turned to the eagle. Li Le guessed that the honest monk asked Miao Yan to send this eagle over, and it should be Lu Xiaofeng's backhand, so he didn't ask anything more, and planned to let his subordinates cook the eagle and eat it.

But after seeing the monk's expression, he was a little soft-hearted, and it was not good to break his friend's compassion, so he called Luo Chuhan to perform an operation on the eagle, unload a leg, and then plan to release the eagle.

But after eating that eagle leg, Li Le was surprised to find that this ordinary-looking goshawk was not only tender and delicious in flesh, but also contained extremely pure heaven and earth vitality in its texture, and the effect of an eagle leg was no worse than a bottle of spiritual liquid. So he thought about it and sent the eagle to Taoyuan Mountain for Zhang Xingzhi to study.

Seeing that Li Le did not kill, Miao Yan was naturally very happy in his heart. In the next few days, Li Le also introduced him to Bai Baiyu, Ma Kongqun and others, and then talked to him about some things about the summer solstice.

According to Li Le's original meaning, he wanted to match the two of them, and he also called Xiao Guo Ding and asked him for his opinion in front of Miaoyan. Xiao Guo Ding looked up and down at the wonderful words, and finally said: "Don't bully my mother in the future, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless under the sword!"

Then he left on his own, which made Li Le cry and laugh a little.

Miao Yan is very embarrassed, he is pious, and has no intention of returning to the vulgar, and now he is being driven by Li Le to put the duck on the shelf, which is really difficult for a strong man.

The next day, he was escorted to Guojiazhuang by Li Le, and he was not ready to say anything to Xia Zhi at that time, so he was not embarrassed or embarrassed by Li Le.

In the face of Xia Zhi, although he had all the feelings in his heart, he couldn't say it, but Xia Zhi looked very cold after seeing him, just glanced at him lightly, and then turned his head to Li Le and said: "There are many things in front of the widow's door, what is Li Tiandao going to do when he brings a monk over?"

This result made Li Le feel very embarrassed, and it was not good to stay any longer, so he left with a smile on his face.

On the way back, Li Le comforted him with a meat chest: "Women, it's inevitable to be petty, and there won't be so much trouble in the future......"

In the next few days, the two never went to Guojiazhuang again, and Li Le needed to prepare for the autumn season, so he spent the whole day practicing Wen Shu. Miao Yan gets along with Bai Yu and Ding Chengfeng, and they are quite similar.

Now that Miao Yan said that he was leaving, Li Le was still very reluctant in his heart, and said: "After wandering outside for so many years, it's not easy to come back and stay longer." If you are not used to living in the house, go back to Dajue Temple, and I will often go to see you. ”

Miao Yan shook his head and said, "I haven't finished the homework left by the master, and I have been delayed for a long time in practicing with the old Zen master over the years. Zhi'an doesn't need to be persuaded anymore, how can you wash your heart without going through Hongchen?

He had made up his mind, and Li Le couldn't say anything more, so he had to send him out of the mansion.

Looking at the back of Miao Yan and the Bitter Mirror Monk leaving, Li Le stood in front of the mansion very stunned, and after a long time, he muttered: "This is a pure person......"
