Chapter 2: A Day in the Life of Yuan Yun and Cao Chong (Part II)

Looking at the spring in Ma Jun's hand, Yuan Yun was a little dissatisfied, this thing looked too rough, and there was no way to meet the requirements for accuracy, but after seeing Ma Jun and Pu Yuan's dark circles, he still smiled.

After rubbing the spring in his hand a few times, Yuan Yuncai smiled and said: "This thing is still a little rough, and the accuracy is still a lot worse, so I said that this is not something that can be solved in a while, let's just take our time." ”

When Pu Yuan heard Yuan Yun say this, his face immediately darkened, he naturally knew this lord very well in his heart, Yuan Yun said this is equivalent to telling them that this spring can't be used at all, although a few have been symbolically made before, but now the so-called repeating pistol has not been started, which proves that these springs are not up to standard at all.

Smack!

Pu Yuan patted his chest fiercely, and then resolutely said: "Although the lord can rest assured, give a small period of time to ensure that the qualified springs come out, and I will not give up if the standard is not met." ”

Ma Jun on the side also patted his chest like Pu Yuan, and then the two retreated together, walking in a very heroic posture, you don't need to guess to know that they are estimated to hide in the workshop for a long time like back then.

Seeing that his comfort made the two people in front of him more radical, Yuan Yun could only smile bitterly, and then shook his head and said to Cao Chong on one side: "Let's hurry up and produce this rifle, and try to arm five thousand soldiers by this time next year." ”

Cao Chong smiled and said: "Since there is a whole year, I believe that the things arranged by my brother-in-law will definitely be completed, and now it is just a start, and various improvements are still being made in the workshop, but this speed is bound to be faster and faster." ”

At this time, Xiao Liu had already finished a basket of bullets, and after he put down the rifle, one of Cao Ang's personal guards immediately stepped forward, and then attached a number tag to the handle, and the rifle that had just been taken out of the box was considered to have passed the test.

Seeing the guards labeling there, Yuan Yun couldn't help but smile bitterly again, and said, "You don't need to check it so strictly, do you have to label every gun produced?" ”

Cao Chong immediately put away his smile and nodded: "Last time, if it wasn't because the gun was dumb, I really don't know how bad the consequences will be, so this will make everyone feel at ease, the power of this rifle is too powerful, take people's lives hundreds of steps away, I'm afraid no one will be able to sleep well if you don't pay attention to it."

And not only is it strict here, Mr. Wei Bocha also carried out the reform of gunpowder sergeants, and now the weapons issued must not leave the barracks half a step, not only the firearms are statistically recorded, but even the bullets are also marked and recorded, and all of them are placed in the arsenal until wartime. ”

Yuan Yun snorted, he felt very familiar with the set of rules set by Wei Qi, isn't this the management of firearms in later generations, and it is indeed much safer, otherwise if a few such rifles are lost, I am afraid it will really make people sleepless day and night.

Just as Cao Chong was talking, Deng Ai also walked in, only to see him holding a bun, and he looked very calm while walking and eating, obviously he usually does this, so it can also be guessed that after this little guy moved out of Yuan's mansion, he has now 'degenerated' to what extent, just like Cao Chong, he is about to become a copy of Yuan Yun.

Deng Ai walked closer, immediately took out a big bun from the pocket he was carrying, and then threw it to Cao Chong, then bowed to Yuan Yun, and then sat on Yuan Yun's side, it seemed that only in front of Yuan Yun would he behave like such a child.

Cao Chong took a bite of the bun and immediately asked Deng Ai: "My brother-in-law and I are going to the palace for a walk in a while, will Xiao Ai go?" ”

Deng Ai was slightly stunned, and wondered: "What are you doing in the palace?" What's so nice about the construction site over there? ”

Cao Chong laughed and said: "You are active outside all day long, and you should also care about the construction of Luoyang, the Luoyang Palace is now completed, but you are just doing the final touches, you dare not imagine how spectacular it is." ”

When Deng Ai heard Cao Chong say this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he just wanted to agree to go around together, but he seemed to remember something again, so he shook his head and said, "Forget it, I still have some important things to do, you can go over by yourself." ”

Yuan Yun tilted his head and looked at Deng Ai, and then asked, "But are you arranging training?" ”

Deng Ai nodded and said: "Now the number of special forces is still too small, and there are even fewer people who can pass the training, so it is impossible not to strengthen the training, and there are less than three hundred people who can become official team members, so it is not a way to go on like this after all, so I now put the training task in the first place." ”

Yuan Yun patted Deng Ai's shoulder and said, "It's right to be busy with business, but you should always take some time to go back to Yuan's Mansion to take a look, your masters and wives are thinking about you, especially you are still worried about your marriage." ”

Deng Ai shuddered instantly, his face was full of pity, what he was most afraid of was Liu Yiyi, he originally thought that if he moved out of the Yuan Mansion, he would be able to escape the end of being harmed, but now it seems that it has no effect at all.

Deng Ai's depressed expression came out, and he saw Xiao Liu on the side and said with a smile: "I said eldest nephew, you should consider marriage at this age, and you should be grateful if you look for it for you according to your master's wife." ”

Deng Ai's face was even worse when he saw Xiaoliu's uncle say this, his father Deng Ba was active outside all the year round and rarely returned to Luoyang, so for him, Yuan's Mansion was equivalent to home, according to this logic, then Liu Yiyi found him a future wife, whether it was fat or thin, beautiful or ugly, he only had to accept it, and this was understandable, but it was blamed on Yuan Yun, the master, who instilled too many theories about freedom in him.

Yuan Yun has always been only responsible for indoctrination, but he doesn't care about the end, so seeing Deng Ai's butt hurting all over there, he just laughed dryly, and he didn't plan to speak at all.

Deng Ai really couldn't figure it out, so he stood up suddenly, and then shook his head vigorously, and then shouted: "Men should focus on their careers, where do they care about such trivial things as marrying a wife." ”

After shouting, Deng Ai ran out of smoke, only ran out a few steps, turned back, and then looked at Yuan Yun seriously: "Master, can you give our special forces the current new rifle?" ”

Yuan Yun nodded and said, "Yes, but not everyone has to be distributed, what you have to do in the near future is to train a few sharpshooters, only they can be equipped with such weapons." ”

Deng Ai finally heard a happy thing, so he said goodbye again, and then walked out with a smile.

Before Deng Ai left, Cao Chong frowned and said: "Xiao Ai, they often move outside, and death and injury are common, what if our new rifle falls into the hands of others?" ”

Yuan Yun shook his head disapprovingly, and said: "Having a gun without bullets is equivalent to scrap iron, don't worry about this, and I believe that Xiao Ai will be fully prepared, now that the special forces are training in assassination, equipping them with this new type of rifle can make them more perfect." ”

As he spoke, Yuan Yun had already stood up, and Xiao Liu took a very interesting step, knowing that the lord was planning to leave for the palace, and he had to prepare the frame and arrange the guards first.

Cao Chong followed behind Yuan Yun unhurriedly, and suddenly said: "I also want to go to Xiao Ai's special forces to play, but I always stay at home, and I feel very bored recently." ”

Yuan Yun squinted at Cao Chong and said, "They often climb in the sewers of Luoyang, and they don't even take a bath for several months when they go to the field to practice, Xiao Chong, are you sure you want to go there to play?" ”

Cao Chong shuddered instantly, he was also like Yuan Yun, he had some natural cleanliness habits, so he couldn't stand it without taking a bath for three days, let alone a few months, and climbing in the sewers, he would feel vomiting when he thought about it.

"Is there something wrong with your machines?" Yuan Yun asked again.

Cao Chong smiled, nodded very brightly and said, "Brother-in-law guessed it, can you help me ......?"

"Don't help! Didn't you say it before, you said that you have to take care of these inventions and creations alone, what? Going to quit now? When Yuan Yun spoke, his face was full of mockery.

Cao Chong pursed his lips and snorted: "If you don't help, you won't help, it's a big deal that I'll stay up a few more nights, and if I don't believe it, I won't be able to figure it out." ”

Yuan Yun looked at Cao Chong's aggrieved look, and only felt very happy, now there are very few things that can stump the little guy in front of him, so when he can appreciate this expression, he must not let it go.

Knowing that Yuan Yun was also amused by Cao Chong, he said: "Your kind of frame with a gas engine is really good, do you suddenly feel that if you don't install tracks, the body will tremble very much, and you can hardly sit and load people, but the cost of installing tracks is too high, and it can't be popularized at all?" ”

Cao Chong's eyes lit up, and he immediately nodded and said: "Brother-in-law is so amazing, I guessed all of them without seeing the finished product, I do have a headache now, and according to the amount of loading and the fuel consumed, it is almost a loss-making business, I think no one should buy this kind of truck." ”

Yuan Yun said with a smile: "That's true, the current gas engine power is still not very good, load a car of freight and send it out, it turns out that the money for fuel can't be earned, no one will buy it, but Xiao Chong didn't think that a gas engine can actually pull several trucks at the same time, so the cost won't come back?" ”

Cao Chong immediately shook his head and affirmed: "No, one gas engine can't be carried anymore, and if you pull a few more, where can you move?" ”

Yuan Yun instantly stretched out his two index fingers, and then made a gesture in parallel, and then said: "The reason why you can't take it is because the road surface is uneven, which leads to too much friction, but you have to erect two steel bars on the ground, and then let the truck walk on these two iron bars, then it will be much smoother immediately, so the kinetic energy is enough." ”

Cao Chong jumped up and said, "Brother-in-law is really powerful, I thought of a solution at once, no!" ”

Cao Chong was halfway through his words, immediately shook his head, and said: "The cost is too expensive, and then laying steel on the ground is simply a sky-high price, who can afford it?" Doesn't it mean that you have to lose more money? ”

Yuan Yun was still full of smiles, and said: "Private people can't afford it, you still have to go to your eldest brother Cao Ang to discuss this matter, as for the cost, as long as these two iron bars are erected, they can be used repeatedly, and at that time you will find that the cost can be recovered soon, and because of these two iron bars, Luoyang is estimated to be able to reach Chang'an in one day, and I don't need to elaborate on the value of this, right?" ”

Cao Chong listened to Yuan Yun say this, his mouth opened wider and wider, and his eyes became brighter and brighter, and he suddenly felt that this matter was indeed feasible, as long as he said that his eldest brother Cao Ang was moved, then it would be a very earth-shattering event.

"Oh yes, since Lao Tzu has helped me with so many ideas, the naming rights must be given to me, so let's call this thing a train." Yuan Yun added at the end, and then sat leisurely into the frame.
