Chapter 412: This is talent

Although the weather was cold, when Jiang Feng and his party rushed over, it was also close to noon, and the sun was just right at this time, and the guards who were rushed to the courtyard by Jiang Feng chatted with the guy.

That guy is a native of Jingshi, and he is very familiar with the people, and he also knows a lot about this Wu Guang, and when he saw these Jiang Feng's personal guards outside, he was quite suspicious of Wu Guang's identity as a craftsman, so he told the allusions there, and these guards surrounded him to pass the time.

It turned out that Wu Guang's father was a small official who was responsible for supervising the making of utensils for Ouchi, and he did not have any grade, but the work of supervising the construction of utensils, in addition to supervising the work, also had some benefits of purchasing materials, and the life of the family was also comfortable. He has always hoped that his children can study hard and achieve something in the imperial examination, which can be regarded as a glorious ancestor.

However, children's hobbies are rarely based on their parents' ideas, Wu Guang grew up in a craftsman's workshop since he was a child, and he has been exposed to it. He likes to fiddle with these tricks very much, and he is thinking about building them by himself, but he is angry enough, Wu Guang is not good at studying when he is in private school, and he soaks in the locksmith's shop all day long.

When Wu Guang was fifteen years old, he recognized some words, and he could read books, and he didn't even think about achieving fame. However, I learned the good skills of making locks and mechanisms, and even some of the more difficult things, and those shops still came to consult Wu Guang.

Although the skill is high, but after all, this is a lowly industry, Wu Guang his father has been in charge of the craftsman for a lifetime, but he did not expect that his son also became a craftsman, angry and sick, Wu Guang died when he was seventeen years old, Wu Guang lost his mother at an early age, and there are no relatives in the family.

After spending all the money left by his father, he really couldn't find any way to settle down, and he simply didn't care about any decent problems, so he opened a craftsman shop by himself, specializing in doing odd jobs for people. Wu Guang's craftsmanship is superb, and at this time, this kind of thing has been introduced from overseas.

Repairing this kind of thing, even those locksmiths who fiddle with machinery can't play it, but because Wu Guang is young and likes novelty things, he has dealt with missionaries a lot, but he has become an outstanding talent in this industry, and his life is getting better and better.

Several major trading houses in the capital went to him to repair these Western-style machinery, and slowly made some money, but Wu Guang was also a strange person, after earning the money, he didn't want to hire people to make a fortune, but locked himself in his home, fiddling with machinery and mechanisms all day long, and only knew people and the business of the store He continued.

Such a person in this era, but also in this era of the Ming Dynasty, can indeed be said to be a strange person, or obedient or something like that, this word also has a saying in later generations, called concentrating on technical research, no intention of mundane things.

They also knew that the main lord was discussing with Jiang Feng in the house, so they talked in a whisper there, laughing a few times from time to time, obviously taking this as an anecdote.

At this moment, I heard a loud 'bump' in the house, and the guards outside suddenly stood up, the two of them set up short guns, and the rest of the people were about to rush into the house with swords, and they all secretly regretted it in their hearts, thinking that if something happened to Jiang Feng, their sins would be great.

Before he could act, he saw the two guards who entered the house with Jiang Feng, opened the doors and windows, coughed softly there, and a smell of gunpowder wafted out, and saw Jiang Feng holding a novel firearm in his hand, and laughed very happily there and said:

"Not bad, not bad!"

The people outside breathed a sigh of relief, and after the guards ventilated, they closed the doors and windows again, and inside the room, Wu Guang over there was fiddling with the flintlock pistol made by the secret weapon workshop of the thirty-three guards, of course, the ammunition inside had been taken down, and the appearance of the flintlock pistol in Jiang Feng's hand constantly coincided with the memories in Jiang Feng's mind, and those already vague memories and fragments gradually became clear.

The flintlock pistol that should appear decades later should be like this, Jiang Feng couldn't help but shoot at a piece of iron in the house, and the penetration power within ten steps was more than the firearm in his hand, but the quality of the gunpowder was not as good as his own granular gunpowder.

Jiang Feng kept pulling the hammer and then hooked the trigger to hit the flint, watching the sparks burst out on it, he felt that he still underestimated the ancients, and his so-called advanced concepts had already been made by someone at this time, which showed that people with superb intelligence were always there.

Wu Guang's flintlock pistol has an anvil at the hammer, and the anvil is inlaid with flint and has a small cover on it, so that the efficiency of firing is even improved.

"A skilled craftsman like you is exactly what my business firm needs, and you are willing to come and do it with me!"

What is a talent, this is a talent, this person is ten million times stronger than those scholars and scholars who talked about the 'collapse of etiquette and music' that day, Wu Guang's knowledge is really useful, Jiang Feng vaguely felt that he had not crossed the passage of 'a certain scientist can catch up with five divisions' that he had read when he had not crossed.

Jiang Feng went out of the army and finances, and one of the places he was most concerned about was the craftsmen in Huazhou, which also gave them a high status, and it must be admitted that the craftsmen of the Netherlands and the craftsmen of the Tianjin artisan camp did make some new things, but the main achievements were on the ship.

The old craftsmen of the artisan battalion could make small improvements to the arquebus and artillery, but this was all a sample in front of it, and there was nothing new about it, and the gun carriage and gun carriage were still in the style of the Spanish Army artillery brought by the craftsmen of the Netherlands.

Several improvements were made by Jiang Feng to tell the craftsmen about the scales he remembered, and then made improvements.

After entering this room, Jiang Feng saw that Wu Guang's living room and the craftsman's workshop were combined in the space, and there were quite fine drawings, Jiang Feng's first impression was that this person was the candidate for the top technician of Huazhou craftsmen, Huazhou's craftsman system at present, it needs such a subordinate person, not with more than a dozen craftsmen The big bosses are responsible for following Jiang Feng, Jiang Jiajun's various systems are getting bigger and bigger, Jiang Feng can only be a subordinate, and it is an increasingly impossible task to be comprehensive.

Jiang Feng sent out an invitation here, that Wu Guang was still playing with the fire gun, and when he heard Jiang Feng's question, he raised his head and said something else entirely:

"Excuse me, sir, what kind of material are the hammers and tension springs of your fire hammers made of?"

"This is also a secret of our firm, if Mr. is willing to come to our firm, naturally it doesn't matter what secrets there are."

Wu Guang was stunned when he heard this, picked up the fire gun and looked at it a few times, and said with regret:

"I thought I was the only one in the world who thought of such a fire bolt excitation, I couldn't think of it, I couldn't think of it, I used the copper sheet of the copper lock for this tension spring, I don't know what you use......"

After a pause, he continued:

"I understand your kindness, I can't stand the restraints, I'm just willing to fiddle with some things by myself, I'm afraid I won't be able to make any money for your account!"

Jiang Feng put down the firearm in his hand, stood up and walked to the table, looking at the drawings on it, there were all kinds of mechanisms on the drawings, from the improvement of water mills and windmills to the cold arrows hidden on the boxes. But what really aroused Jiang Feng's interest was a drawing placed below, which looked like many pipes were neatly stacked in boxes, with leads and torches behind them.

Looking at the instructions on the drawing, this is a lot of arquebus barrels to load the ammunition, which is fixed to the box rack, and the fuses are lit in turn on the battlefield, and the ammunition will be fired in turn. In this era, in order to pursue the density and intensity of firepower, arquebusiers are required to fire a salvo.

If the things on this drawing are made, it is clearly a soil method of continuous fire machine gun, if hundreds of lead shots are fired in such a concentrated manner, how powerful it should be.

Wu Guang in the back came over, saw this drawing, and explained there:

"The foreigner in the church next door used to say that this weapon was called an organ or something in their place, and I thought it was similar to the 'swarm' in our big open flame weapon (the rocket was placed in the box and fired out after ignition), so I drew a drawing, but this thing is too material-intensive and I don't know what can be used."

Jiang Feng pondered for a while, and then spoke:

"Mr. Wu, if you come to me, you can do whatever you think, whether it is money or things, you can give convenience!"

After hearing this, Wu Guang was obviously a little frightened, but no one would believe that such a good thing would come directly to the door, and after thinking about it, he still refused. Jiang Feng's two guards' faces sank, thinking that Jiang Feng had already achieved such a level of posture, and you still didn't know each other like this.

Jiang Feng smiled, took out the silver and bought the newly made firecracker, said a word of interruption, and walked out of the door with the guards, more than a dozen guards watched their adults come out, and hurriedly followed. As soon as he walked out of the courtyard, the guards behind him asked with some resentment:

"My lord, let's just go? That man doesn't know what to do......"

Hearing this, Jiang Feng smiled and said coldly:

"Come and kidnap him for me at night, remember that there is nothing left in this yard!"
