Ruvio reverently recited the knight's declaration and stood up again, this one-meter-nine man who used to beg for a life on the sea, the breath of the whole person was different in an instant, and he really had a bit of a knight's meaning.

He liked to laugh enthusiastically, and he also became unsmiling: "Master, can I establish a family knighthood?" ”

The establishment of the Family Knights has a fatal attraction for the Knights of Europa.

However, Zhu Shun can't be the master of this matter, the Knights of Europa need to wear full-body plate armor, and it is a felony to hide a piece of leather armor in Daming, and the full-body plate armor can be raided.

It's not hopeless, it depends on whether Ruvio can fight for the qualification to set up a mercenary escort team, if Zhu Shun is not mistaken, there is a mercenary from Francoji in the capital.

Zhu Shun asked the man of the iron tower to bring a lacquered box, and instructed: "It is a felony to hide armor privately in Daming, you should know it." ”

"This plate armor, which symbolizes the glory of the family, is locked in the box first, and then I will go to Wang Gongju to get it after a while."

Ruvio stood upright, leaned forward fifteen degrees, and saluted respectfully: "Yes, sir." ”

After canonizing the knight of the family, it is time to start the next step.

Zhu Shun took Ru Wei out of the Bai Mansion and walked to the gate of the Bai Mansion, where there was also a top-class Liaodong horse with a black body, which was also used to reward Lu Weio: "This horse is for you." ”

A tall steed like this could be exchanged for a small estate in Europa, and Ruvio immediately saluted respectfully and mounted the black steed.

The group rushed to Wang Gongju.

Zhu Shun paid attention to Ruvio's riding skills along the way, he was a generalist, proficient in water warfare, a gladiator, and even proficient in horsemanship.

Arriving at Wang Gong's Bureau, Zhu Shun took a few people off the war horse, walked in from the copper nail gate, passed through the Yi Gate, and came to the public office of the gun factory.

Zhu Yu, the head of the factory, wore a soap-edged round-necked jacket, sitting on the Huanghuali bookcase, dealing with some accounts.

Zhu Yu heard the movement at the door, looked up, and said with a smile: "Big brother, here." ”

Waving his hand and asking a relative to prepare tea, Zhu Yu walked to the main hall and sat beside the eldest brother.

Zhu Shun motioned to the man of the iron tower to guard the door, not letting anyone in, and there were only three people left in the public house: "Boss, prepare for the next two days, and in a few days, the imperial court may let you go to Miyun County to serve as the magistrate." ”

Zhu Yu has relied on his own ability in the past few years, and he has been admitted to the juren, and the six-room head of the county government is okay, and the county needs the fame of the jinshi.

Zhu Yu is just a lifter, and he still doesn't doubt Zhu Shun's words, the eldest brother is now an uncle.

The eldest brother said that if he served as the magistrate, he would definitely be able to serve as the magistrate, but the gun factory was handed over to others, and Zhu Yu was not at ease.

Zhu Shun saw the hesitation of his younger brother Zhu Yu, and did not say it explicitly, some things told him that if the matter was revealed, it would hurt him.

It is also meaningful to arrange for his younger brother Zhu Yu to go to Miyun County to serve as the magistrate, Miyun County is in the northernmost part of Shuntianfu, and the county soil is next to the Great Wall of the border pass, and the outer side of the Great Wall is the grassland of the Mongolian Tatars.

Serving as the county governor of Miyun has the meaning of sharpening Zhu Yu, and he also wants to see if Zhu Yu can rely on his ability to let the poor people of Miyun County live a good life where they can eat well.

Miyun County is the only county and township in Shuntian Province that has not promoted potatoes, not because it has been hindered by the bureaucrats and gentry, but because due to the special topography of Miyun County, drought and flood disasters occur every year, and crops cannot be grown.

Zhu Shun arranged his younger brother's future, asked him to get a Doumi-style rifle, and handed it to Lu Weio: "This is a new type of firearm, tomorrow Uncle Ben will take you into the palace to face the saint, whether you can establish a knight will depend on your performance." ”

Ruvio stood up and saluted respectfully, "Yes, sir. ”

It won't be long before Wang Gongju will no longer exist, Zhu Shun asked his younger brother Zhu Yu to sort out the accounts at hand, and by the way, he took Wang Gongju to say goodbye, and left here with Ru Wei and others, and explained what Lu Wei Ao had to say tomorrow.

The next day, wait until the morning pilgrimage is over.

Zhu Shun took Ru Wei to the Forbidden City, and had already revealed some news to Wang Chengen in advance last night, and the doumi-style rifle had also been handed over.

If it weren't for the fact that it was already past midnight and it was late at night, Chongzhen would have summoned the Franc machine merchant who had come to offer rare treasures last night.

Failed to summon the Francophone merchant to have a long talk all night, Chongzhen didn't sleep well, didn't even fall asleep, and watched the night with a Doumi rifle.

After Wang Chengen's use, Chongzhen has seen the power of this doumi-style rifle, and he is very clear about the significance of this doumi-style rifle to the Ming Dynasty.

This is the third-generation firearm that Zhu Shun has been working on, but he didn't expect it to be invented by this Franc machine businessman.

Zhu Shun took Ru Wei to step into this splendid Qianqing Palace, everything here is more like heaven in Lu Weio's eyes than the heaven in the missionary's mouth.

Ruvio didn't look around, and always looked straight ahead without smiling.

He is now a knight, and he must always maintain his chivalry and protect the glory of the industrial family.

Looking around, it will stain the glory of the industrial family.

Chongzhen saw the Francophone businessman who had been thinking all night, looked at it a few times, and said expressionlessly: "This is a firearm you invented." ”

As soon as Ru Weio got up from the ground, he heard Chongzhen's question, saluted respectfully, and said with a smile: "Yes, respected Emperor Daming, this is a new type of firearm I invented." ”

"The name is the Doumi rifle, with a maximum range of more than 240 zhang and an effective range of 170 zhang."

Chongzhen's real concern is not about power, he already knew the general idea of power yesterday, and what he really wanted to know was the price: "The price of such a superb firearm should be very high, but there are thirty taels of silver." ”

Wang Gongju made a flintlock smoothbore gun, and the cost of one was already 227 yuan of silver, and the price of this more advanced musket was definitely higher.

Tell the price of thirty taels of silver, this is the highest price Chongzhen can give in his heart, I hope this Franc machine merchant can be interesting.

Ru Weio continued to say without a smile: "Dear Emperor Ming, a doumi-style rifle only costs three taels and four cents of silver. ”

When Chongzhen heard this price, he almost got up from his seat, and he didn't speak for a long time, trying to calm the violent fluctuations in his heart.

This new type of firearm costs only three taels and four cents of silver, while the inferior flintlock smoothbore gun costs twenty-two and seven cents of silver.

Good you Ministry of Industry, good you Donglin Party, how much blood has you sucked on the body of the Ming Dynasty over the years!
