As Li Mu envisioned, after Will took office, Bresta and Chad were promoted to sergeants, and even Li Mu was assigned a position as sheriff of the reservoir district. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Li Mu doesn't want to be a sheriff, it's not bad to have a police identity as a talisman, but Li Mu doesn't want to hold any position.

So the position of sheriff of the reservoir district was assigned to Ford Benjamin by Li Mu.

Originally, Li Mu wanted to arrange it for Yan Hu, but Yan Hu was indeed unexpected, after winning two championships in the National Shooting Competition, he won again in the competition with the French, becoming the biggest profiteer of the National Shooting Competition, becoming a national hero of the United States as a Chinese-American, and being hired as a shooting instructor by the National Rifle Association.

According to Burnside's meaning, he originally wanted to keep Yan Hu in Washington as the business card of the National Rifle Association, but Yan Hu insisted on returning to Springfield, so Burnside did not force it.

Springfield also has a rifle association, and when Yan Hu returns to Springfield, he can also serve as a shooting instructor for the Springfield Rifle Association, but the effect is almost the same.

With the position of the Rifle Association, it was not easy to arrange Yan Hu's other positions, Li Mu weighed it repeatedly, and finally arranged the position of the sheriff of the reservoir district to Ford Benjamin.

Ford Benjamin had enough seniority that he would not have been reduced to homelessness if it weren't for his business failures.

Some people are like that, they are at home in familiar territory, and once they leave it, they immediately become as overwhelmed as aliens.

Ford Benjamin didn't expect to be hit by such a big pie, and after being appointed by Li Mu, Ford Benjamin swore allegiance to Li Mu, and returned to Michigan to pick up his family and prepare to take root in Springfield.

In fact, there is no shadow of the reservoir yet, this is not a project that Amis came up with in order to win over Li Mu and pat his head, Springfield City originally had this plan, and Amis just put it on the schedule in advance. As the industrial center of the United States, Springfield City is very wealthy, and there is not much financial pressure to undertake such a large project.

After the crisis from George was resolved, Li Mu immediately began to work together, and the first stop was the Springfield Arsenal.

The Springfield Arsenal was founded in 1794, and in the decades since its establishment, the Springfield Arsenal has been the largest small arms production center in the United States, with more than 70 percent of the U.S. weapons produced at the Springfield Arsenal, and the largest rifle produced at present is the Spencer Seven Round, which is also Li Mu's goal.

Similar to what Li Mu expected, the years when the Civil War had just ended, it was the most embarrassing time for the Springfield Arsenal, there was no need for weapons in peacetime, and the scale of the US Army was pitiful, so the Springfield Arsenal has been in a semi-open state for several years, and the weapons produced five years ago have not been sold out.

It is precisely because of this that Li Mu poached talents from the Chuntian Arsenal so easily, if the Chuntian Arsenal had been running at full capacity, Li Mu's poaching behavior might have been on someone's blacklist.

Li Mu's order came at the right time, and the Springfield Arsenal offered Li Mu a price of fifteen dollars a piece, and also included 200 rounds of ammunition, in order to thank Li Mu for helping the Springfield Arsenal destock.

Fifteen dollars a piece, which means that Li Muhe and the Rifle Association's business can earn about 150,000 dollars, and this business is really cost-effective.

However, compared with Burnside, Li Mu still made a small head, and Burnside just took a kickback of 200,000 US dollars, and there is no one who can make money efficiently.

This deal can really be called a happy one, not to mention Li Mu and Burnside, these two people can earn more than 100,000 or 200,000 dollars with their mouths, and it can't be easier; Springfield is also happy about this deal, fifteen dollars a rifle, although it is not a lot of money, but it is still profitable, in this economic downturn, it is already very good; The Cuban side had nothing to say, did not spend a penny, and obtained 10,000 rifles from Li Mu, and only the US government would be the culprit of such injustice; Of course, the U.S. government is not at a loss, and although it has been the main culprit, the U.S. government has achieved its goal and successfully avoided suspicion, not to mention the political significance and impact of this incident, which is what the U.S. government values.

After talking about the order, Li Mu casually chatted with Larry Reed, the director of the Springfield Arsenal, about smokeless gunpowder.

"Smokeless gunpowder - stable?" Larry Reid was unaware that a stable smokeless gunpowder had been patented.

"Yes, stable smokeless gunpowder, you should know what this means for our military industry." Li Mu has already prepared the big knife, and he is waiting to slash at the heads of the foreign devils.

"Of course - I understand - it's just that I have a question, why don't you produce it yourself?" Larry didn't rush into the trap, he had to buy time to calculate the benefits and losses.

As the largest weapons factory in the United States, the Springfield Arsenal of course has a bullet factory, and gunpowder is also part of the bullet factory.

Compared with Li Mu's Horse Weapons Company, the Springfield Arsenal is also a big business, and it is not easy to launch a new project, not to mention that smokeless gunpowder is a project that determines the direction of enterprise development, and it will definitely be cautious, so Li Mu did not expect Larry to make a decision with a slap on the brain, and the Springfield Arsenal needs time to hold a demonstration meeting, and a decision can only be made after many demonstrations.

"I don't have a bullet factory, and I don't have relevant machines and technicians, so I don't plan to get involved in this area, but you, your equipment is ready-made, personnel, venues and everything, so I think at this stage, win-win cooperation is our best choice." Li Mu didn't say anything to death, laying the groundwork for the future.

Although it seems that the production of bullets is simpler than the production of weapons, in fact it is not the case, the performance of smokeless gunpowder and black powder is completely different, so in order to maximize the effectiveness of smokeless gunpowder, it is necessary to redesign a new type of bullet, and for Li Mu's Junma Weapons Company, there is currently no such ability.

Don't underestimate the work of designing bullets, a small warhead, a slight deviation in material, weight, shape, structure, and even the center of mass will affect the flight attitude of the warhead in the air, and then affect the range, accuracy, and lethality.

Li Mu's factory still lacks high-end professionals, so Li Mu's horse weapons company can produce pistols, but it can't produce bullets, at least it can't design a new bullet, so about this smokeless gunpowder, it is better to authorize the production at this stage, so that it is conducive to eliminating the old weapons as quickly as possible and promoting new weapons based on smokeless gunpowder.

When it comes to profits, the profit from selling guns is obviously much greater than selling bullets.
