So this shot was fired later, and finally many people couldn't help but complain again.

"Nest! This ** is too rushed......"

"The recoil of the gun is still too strong, and my bones are going to be shattered!"

"Every time you fire a shot, there's smoke coming out of the back! The bullet groove was shaken loose, Boss Luo! ”

"This ** smell is also very strange, Mr. Zhao, isn't your ** recipe very different?"

Luo Zhengyi looked at the embarrassed appearance of everyone, and said to everyone apologetically, hey, everyone has worked hard, the experiment is to find and solve the problem, you can rest assured, this gun has not been officially finalized, but these fifty bullets have been fired, which proves that its firing device is still relatively reliable, and the barrel is really not exploded......

"Holy! Don't scare us, if we blow up our lives, it won't be over! ”

"Yes! It's still blowing up like that? That's worth it! ”

"Boss Luo, are you always us, are we guinea pigs?"

Looking at the shocked crowd, Boss Luo hurriedly shook his hand and said, No, no, no, you misunderstood, long before you came back, we used the arquebus and iron you brought back from Sulu to simulate the pressure of the chamber, and repeated experiments dozens of times without exploding, the quality of this Dutch flintlock pistol is much stronger than those arquebuses, and the charge is also reduced by one-third than before, rest assured, it can't be blown up at all.

After listening to Boss Luo's explanation, many people were frightened and their faces turned white before they regained some blood, and Boss Luo continued:

"Okay, okay, the bullet groove is closed and strengthened and improved, and I'll be alive here! As for the problem of recoil, it can only be like this under the existing conditions, and I don't think you can jump around after shooting, right? ”

"Are we okay? What's okay! The shoulder socket hurts! ”

"My shoulder socket is okay, but my ears are still buzzing......"

However, Boss Luo did not respond to everyone's complaints at all, but clapped his hands, looked back at Zhao Xihe with a smile and said:

"It seems that everyone's main complaint is still focused on your old man's ammunition."

At this time, Mr. Zhao stood far behind the crowd and said to everyone calmly, "Ammunition, the whole is very successful!" It doesn't matter...... the charge of ** is indeed a bit of a problem, I think the main thing is that the purification means need to be improved, as for the smoke produced by ***, as far as I know, this is much smaller than the arquebus, right? So it's a success!

"Mr. Zhao, is your old man's success standard a little lower?"

"And the smoke from other people's arquebuses doesn't smell like that chemical, does it?"

"yes, it's too much to talk about......"

Someone in the crowd immediately complained.

After hearing everyone's comments, Mr. Zhao immediately responded to everyone with a serious face:

"Please rest assured, we are not unaware of the opinions you have raised, but have made some efforts, of course, we will continue to seize the time to improve, but you should also know in your hearts that many times there is no way.

We can't make a more advanced ** now, smoke-free ** production needs to further improve the level of our chemical industry, obviously not can be achieved overnight now, so I make it clear here: please wait patiently for a year or two. ”

Everyone was silent for a long time and didn't speak, too, what kind of process conditions the chemical team currently has, everyone knows in their hearts, and they really can't blame others.

"In short, under the existing conditions, only black ** can be used to produce this kind of paper shell fixed ammunition, no matter what, compared to the level of the times and our foundation, this is already considered to be the ultimate ......"

Seeing that everyone was listening carefully, Mr. Zhao went on to introduce:

"And we also have a problem of cost and output, after all, the black ** process is relatively simple, and the technical requirements for labor are not too high, so it is relatively easy to carry out large-scale production, it is really not good, this thing can still be purchased in large quantities in this era, anyway, we can buy it for deep processing, right?.

Speaking of the in-depth processing of black **, which is the so-called 'strengthening', it is based on a formula provided to us by Anna, this formula adds several nitrides, and you can all smell it, the smell is not the same as ordinary black **, right? Because this is an original technology given to us by Anna, which is unique in this era! ”

"It turned out to be the technology given by Anna!"

"Well, I just said, that smell is very special, it turns out to be the smell of the future......"

Looking at the crowd with different opinions, Mr. Zhao hurriedly raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and continued:

"However, this kind of strengthened black ** has a disadvantage: easy to volatilize and fail, the main reason is that the chemical properties of nitride additives are not very stable, you have also noticed that the paper shell of the fixed bullet is coated with tung oil, in addition to playing the role of shaping the paper shell and moisture-proof, another important role is to try to isolate the black ** from contact with the air, obviously, this isolation is not complete, so according to our theoretical calculations, the shelf life of this strengthened black ** should only be about 20 months, beyond this time, black ** If it is not damp, it will still be black**, but it will basically degenerate into ordinary black**, and at that time, if these ammunition are not returned to the factory to refill with nitride, then the range and power of the musket may return to the same level as the ordinary flintlock pistol and arquebus of this era. ”

After listening to Mr. Zhao's introduction, everyone was a little stunned for a while, and many people turned their joy into worry and said, if the ammunition is like this, then the reserve of ammunition is a big problem, whether it is a war or not, these bullets have to be replaced more than once a year, so the cost is too high?

However, Ren Ke put forward a different view on this, and he smiled and said, in fact, this is not necessarily a good thing.

Everyone asked why with a confused face, and Ren Ke replied, "This can maintain our technological advantage, right?"

"What do you mean?"

"It means that we can even use this black ** to sell silver, this black ** is characterized by its power is strong enough, and it can also achieve large-scale production under the existing conditions, isn't it a pity not to sell it for money?"

Ren Ke looked at everyone calmly and responded.

"This ...... Isn't this a pit man? Do we still want business reputation?! ”

Someone in the crowd asked worriedly.

"Hey! That's right! If we clearly explain to customers in advance that this kind of ** only has a shelf life of 20 months, and we are not forced to buy and sell, can others still say that we are cheating? ”

The ** next to him suddenly woke up and pointed out the fundamental way to solve the credibility problem: say it clearly in advance.

"And it won't pose a long-term threat to us, if a customer buys our enhanced black ** and then changes his position and becomes an enemy of us, then he will have to weigh it, do you think I'm right?"

Ren Ke was very satisfied with **'s reaction, he nodded towards **, and smiled a little wickedly.

"It's a benefit I didn't expect......"

"If we sell this ** to the Portuguese, or the Dutch, ......"

"Oh my God! Doesn't this force these forces to depend on us in the end? ”

"Yes, if you don't want your ** to return to the ordinary black ** era, they have to go with us......"

"It's scary to think about it......"

"That's the power of technology!"

"Yes, yes......"

In the midst of everyone's discussions, Mr. Zhao was obviously also inspired by something, he walked to the side, took the flintlock pistol in his hand, pulled the gun on the leash, touched the blackened bullet groove with his fingers a few times, and then put his fingers on the side of his nose and sniffed, and after carefully observing the firing device, he continued slowly:

"Hmm...... After all, the enhanced black ** is still in the experimental stage, and we still have room for improvement. I have to say, after listening to Ren Ke Xiaowei's words, I suddenly felt that the future was terrifying, it seems that our chemical industry group is going to change the direction of scientific research, we were still trying to find alternatives to these nitrites, but now it seems that there is no need at all, and it seems that we can't do it......"
