"Aren't I doing that?" Gao Han spread his hands: "You bring back the firearms I gave to Lord Sun, show Lord Sun, if Lord Sun has a heart, my two families can cooperate!" After all, I want coke and ironware, presumably Denglai also has it, and Master Sun's experience in firearms research is only afraid that others can't learn it, if there is this opportunity, it is not impossible for the two of us to open a firearms factory again!! ”

"Well, this one!" Kong Youde didn't dare to admit it, in fact, the craftsman, with the reputation of Lord Sun, Denglai has gathered some craftsmen who are good at making firearms, under the guidance of Lord Sun, small firearms have also been made, but the number is not enough, large firearms cannons and the like, of course, there is no need to think about it, Denglai does not have so many good materials and craftsmen who cast cannons, no matter how the adults are full of economy, but there are no dry goods, and they can't change out of cannons.

"Don't worry, you can go back and discuss with Master Sun, I think we can still do it!!" Gao Han sent off the guests with a smile.

Kong Youde stayed in Haojing Ao for three or four days, and when he went back, he left with fifty muskets and twenty or thirty mercenaries sent to Sun Yuanhua by Gao Han, which was still tempted by high salaries and muskets, so he recruited so many people, and for those Fanren adventurers, it was too risky to follow the officials of the Ming Dynasty to work in a place where they didn't know their names.

Because of Gao Han's proposal, when he went back, there was almost no delay, and when the ship arrived in Dengzhou, he got off the ship directly, placed those mercenaries in his Dengzhou camp, and went directly to Sun Yuanhua's mansion with muskets.

Sun Yuanhua is forty-six years old this year, although the governor Denglai is supposed to be a civilian official, but after experiencing the war in Liaodong, his demeanor is far more powerful than those civilian officials.

Kong Youde since the death of Mao Wenlong, Sun Yuanhua took him in, and appointed him as the general of the Denglai cavalry, in this regard, Sun Yuanhua is kind to him, Kong Youde often said in front of his cronies, he has two benefactors in life, one is Mao Shuai, the other is this Sun Daren, now Mao Shuai is gone, his life, even if it is sold to Sun Daren.

In the Denglai Governor's Mansion, Sun Yuanhua was in his study, calculating a number that he hadn't calculated for a long time, and when he heard that Kong Youde was back, he immediately couldn't wait to walk out of the study.

"What about people?" He looked at Kong Youde, Kong Youde came with one shoulder and one head on his head, with his understanding of Kong Youde, if he completed his orders, he would definitely proudly bring those craftsmen he wanted to come to ask for credit.

"Your Excellency, you don't blame me for this!" Kong Youde explained seriously: "I plan to smash the silver and smash a few craftsmen to come back, but now all the craftsmen who can make firearms in Haojing Ao have been recruited by Jinyiwei, if I dig people in the hands of others, maybe I won't be able to come back!" ”

"Nonsense!" Sun Yuanhua looked at this lazy guy angrily: "Without evidence, Jinyi Wei dares to detain you as a dignified general?" ”

"I really didn't lie to my lord!" Kong Youde smiled: "I really almost clashed with Jinyiwei, but fortunately, I reported the name of the adult, and the people of Jinyiwei also admired the adult very much, so a disaster was avoided!" ”

"Just make it up!" Sun Yuanhua didn't believe his words at all: "What have I done, dare to let the factory guards admire, if you want to say that, can I sleep with peace of mind in the future, okay, don't talk about it, what's going on, how are things going!" ”

Kong Youde saw his lord speaking seriously, and he also put away a lazy look: "According to the instructions of the adult, if you can't recruit craftsmen, if you can recruit people who are skilled in the use of firearms, it's okay, I have recruited twenty-seven people, and they have been placed in the camp, and some of them have even received formal firearms training in Fanguo, and the adults are free, you can take a good look at their drills!" ”

"What about the craftsman?"

"Not really!" Kong Youde said helplessly: "One of the commanders of Jinyiwei, called Gao Han, took away Fanren's firearms factory in Haojingao, and all the craftsmen were in his hands, and I couldn't find any of them!" ”

Seeing Sun Yuanhua's unswerving face, Kong Youde took out a musket from behind him and put it on the table: "However, that Gao Han is not a solitary eater, although the craftsman can't give it to us, but he still sent a batch of muskets produced by their firearms factory to adults, and besides, the muskets he has there are basically not sold, and being able to send such a batch to adults is already full of sincerity in his opinion!" ”

"The people of Jinyiwei are not so kind!" Sun Yuanhua shook his head: "Say, what do they want, is it the coke?" Since they know what to do, I naturally won't be embarrassed for them! ”

"Not really!" Kong Youde recalled Gao Han's expression: "The commander of the Jinyi Guard, it seems that he really admires the adult, this batch of muskets is given to us, he knows that we probably need more muskets, and he proposed a meaning of cooperation with the adult, that is, we and the craftsmen of his Jinyiwei firearms factory will join together to set up a firearms factory!" ”

"Still nonsense!" Sun Yuanhua didn't believe this: "Did he say where this firearms factory is, if it is in Guangdong, it is clear that he wants to scold my craftsmen in the past, the people of Jinyiwei are very greedy, people are in their hands, and then they want to get out, but it will be difficult, I have taught these students in the past few years, and the craftsmen under my hands have just run in to the same time, so I give them away, am I a fool?" ”

"I didn't say this, but, my lord, we can set up this firearms factory in Dengzhou, if he doesn't send people, it will be insincere, if he is really willing to send people over, then maybe this thing can really be done, then the idea of building a stronger force than the Shenji Battalion, maybe it can really be realized!"

"Let's talk about this matter later!" Sun Yuanhua shook his head, picked up the musket sent by Kong Youde, and looked left and right.

"How's that!"

"Try it first!"

Sun Yuanhua didn't go out of the yamen, just in front of the rockery of the back ya, skillfully picked up the musket and loaded the gunpowder projectile, when the projectile was loaded, there was no reaction, and when Kong Youde explained that the gunpowder in the paper package could be ignited and fired directly into it, he was obviously stunned for a moment.

The gunpowder projectile was loaded, he looked at the rockery more than ten steps away, and the shot was a shot, after the gunshot, the two of them came to the rockery to look, only to see that the rockery had collapsed a huge corner, Kong Youde looked at it, and Sun Yuanhua shook his head slightly.

"How many muskets have been delivered to us?"

"Fifty, in addition to this one, there are still forty-nine!"
