Chapter 11 The First Large Arms Order

"Ahem, let's talk about magical weapons, you're interested in this kind of weapon?" Derek coughed awkwardly to skim the unfavorable testimony against him.

As the saying goes, nothing does wrong, how many things are caused by people who are too idle, Derek has nothing to do except for occasionally patrolling with the city defense corps, and staying at home all day to play ambiguous and make figures with the maid sister can no longer satisfy him, so he has a bold idea.

Of course, he didn't dare to attack Miss Lina, but Derek was no longer satisfied with making ordinary weapons and decided to make a big one, so he needed money, lots and lots of money!

"Yes, but I want to confirm one question first, is it possible to use this weapon without magic?" Princess Jessica had been watching the little princess's game just now, and found that every time Wei'er fired the cannon, there were almost no magic fluctuations, which was simply incredible.

It's amazing, if you don't need magic power, does it mean that ordinary soldiers can also use it, and if your own legion can be equipped, the combat effectiveness will definitely be greatly improved.

Nowadays, the armies of all countries on the mainland adopt the corps system, and the salaries of all soldiers in the legion are uniformly paid by the state. In addition, the procurement of weapons and equipment is directly handed over to the corps commander, who procures it himself.

Of course, you can also choose to just embezzle the money, or shoddy, but the commander of the legion is different from other officials, as the commander of the unit, he must act with the legion at any time, and the commander who leaves the legion without the king's order, for whatever reason, will be directly executed.

If you think that you can survive on the battlefield with a group of soldiers with broken copper and iron, then please feel free, under this kind of regulation, almost no regiment commander will embezzle procurement funds, money is a good thing, but it must also be spent on life.

"Of course, the purpose of the Rose Workshop is to create magical weapons that can be used by all, not just magicians, and although this has not been done yet, I believe that sooner or later it will be realized.

At the very least, I've made a number of magic weapons that can be used by ordinary people, such as the Napoleon cannon used by Her Royal Highness the Little Princess. Speaking of professional issues, Derek immediately introduced it graciously, hoping to talk about the business.

"Why is it called that?" wondered Princess Jessica.

"Well, this is the story I heard my grandfather tell me when I was a kid, the name of one of the soldiers under his command, who died to protect him. "No way, Derek had to start talking nonsense, I can't say that Emperor Napoleon III made a cannon, I guess you will ask me where he is emperor.

"Is there such a person under the old Count of Ross? I have read the memoirs of the old Count of Rose, why don't I remember this person?" Princess Jessica has been in the army for a long time, and knows the deeds of the old Count of Ross with the name of a hero, this name is obviously a little unfamiliar.

"Because ......" Derek thought desperately, damn it, how am I going to do this? Old man, what kind of memoir do you say you have nothing to do?

How good it is to write some poems and songs, such as "The cannon bombarded his daughter, Weijia Hai returned to his hometown" or "What a Penglai Pavilion, it's really good." If the gods can reach it, I will also sit down. And so on, to contribute to people's poor spiritual world.

"Well, you don't need to say it, I understand, I'll report to my father about this matter. Jessica saw that Derrick's face was embarrassed and speechless, and she couldn't help but ponder, and then said with a clear expression.

"No, I haven't said anything yet, what do you know?" Derek looked dazed.

"It must have been the old Duke Mountbatten who got in the way, so that this venerable soldier did not get the honor he deserved, right? The old Duke Mountbatten had always been obsessed with the fact that Count Rose, who was lower than himself, became his superior, and it must have been a good thing for him to do. Princess Jessica said indignantly.

"Well, you say yes. Derek spread his hands.

"How do you sell this magical weapon called a Napoleon cannon?" asked Jessica straight to the point.

"Which one do you want?"

"There are many other weapons called cannons?"

"Of course, the little princess uses this little Napoleon cannon, the price is only 60 gold coins, I also made a big Napoleon cannon that is twice as powerful as this one, of course, the price is also more expensive, 120 gold coins, I send 100 shells for each cannon. Derek talked eloquently, and when he talked about business, it was immediately like a different person.

Don't think Derek is very generous, Derek has calculated that in this world, the purchasing power of a gold coin is about equal to more than 30,000 yuan.

"This price is fair, but what is the price of this cannonball?" Princess Jessica was a little moved.

"15 gold coins for a cannonball for a small Napoleon, 10 gold coins for a cannonball for a big Napoleon, if you are willing to get a stored value card from me, I can give a little more. Derek said pretending to be generous.

"What is a stored value card?" Princess Jessica asked hesitantly.

"How to say it, that is, you deposit the money with me in advance, and deduct the amount directly from the card for each consumption, starting from 10,000 gold coins, charging 10,000 get 1,000 free, and the more you charge, the more you will send. "Yes, princess, open your wallet, no krypton, how do you become stronger?

Derek remembered the money that was cheated by mobile game operators when he was on Earth, and silently cried in his heart, and today, it was finally my turn.

"I need to think about it, do you have that big Napoleon cannon? I want to see the power. Princess Jessica had a hard time deciding to take a look first.

"Where, of course?" Hearing this, Derek knew that the business was done, and that just the little Napoleon could arouse your interest, and wouldn't it be crazy to see the big Napoleon cannon?

"Just use the martial arts training ground in the palace, it's usually used by the Praetorian Guard Legion, just say it. ”

......

"This is the Great Napoleon 12-pounder field gun, with a barrel length of 1.7 meters, a caliber of 117mm, a gun body weighing 220 kg, a range of two kilometers, and three shells: solid, shotgun, and flower, of course, the other two shells are more expensive.

Personally, I recommend an artillery group of three soldiers to operate, and a skilled artillery group can do almost three shots per minute......"

At Derek's request, everyone stood aside and listened to Derek's explanation, while the cannon was meticulously operated by the three facemen summoned by Derek.

"Master, I want to learn this trick too!" The little princess couldn't help but interrupt excitedly when she found that Master's hand-based spell could still be played like this

"Don't interrupt, practice your batter defenses first. Derek waved his hand and continued, "So, the demo begins!"

"Boom!", "Boom!", "Boom!", "Boom!", the man man, maneuvered the cannon to quickly complete three shots.

The first shotgun smashed the targeted carriage into a sieve, followed by a second solid bullet that smashed the carriage to pieces, which was made by alchemists especially for the royal family, reinforced with steel that only dwarves could make, and was unusually strong.

As the third shell fell, even the fragments of the carriage disappeared without a trace, leaving only a horrible crater, and Princess Jessica was speechless in shock.

It only takes three ordinary soldiers to send out artillery fire that is close to the power of the archmage, which simply subverts her cognition, you know, this time when she comes back, in addition to debriefing, she originally wanted to recruit a few good mages to join her own legion.

Now it seems that there may be another option.

"Can it be cheaper?"

"I'm sorry, but the price is already the lowest. Derek said in the most sincere tone.

"I'll take it, give me twenty first!" Jessica said through gritted teeth.

"It's a really good weapon. An unfamiliar voice came from the direction of the gate and exclaimed.
