Chapter 8 Liangjia Business Network (6)
Loew could only sit down again, but he didn't know what this magical Oriental boy wanted to do.
"Mr. Loew, can you give me some pieces of paper and a pencil"? Although Loew was a little inexplicable, he still asked the engineer to bring a pen and paper, and Young Master Liang picked up the pen, scratched his head and said, "I'm sorry, can you give me another ruler?" In his previous life, he was used to using computer graphics, and he rarely drew drawings by hand. The engineer brought a ruler without the boss's instructions, and at this time they had already guessed that the eldest young master might be going to draw, so they stopped talking and quietly watched him draw.
It took less than half an hour, and Young Master Liang finally finished drawing, his head was already a little sweaty, and he hadn't drawn drawings by hand for a long time, and he found that he was a little hand-raw. The other two stood up and saw three pieces of paper on the table, which seemed to be drawings, and the two of them looked at it carefully, and soon the engineer exclaimed: "This is three views of a gun, my God, you are so good, you actually drew a set of three views in such a short time". Loew's eyes lit up next to him, and after watching it for a long time, he didn't understand what kind of gun this was, and the highlights of the two people were different.
Loew turned his head, looked at Master Liang and said, "Mr. Liang, can you tell me what kind of gun this is?" Obviously urgent, it seems that he is a gun lover. In fact, Liang Sihan painted the 1888 committee rifle made in Germany in the previous life, and the Germans sold this gun as a Mauser rifle to the Qing Dynasty, who actually bought the design drawings at a high price and imitated them himself, which was made by the famous Hanyang. Now Master Liang is fooling the Germans with a design that is twenty years ahead, hey, when is the time for retribution?
"This is the latest rifle I designed myself, which is at least twenty years ahead of the rifles used in the European armies now," Young Master Liang said truthfully.
"Oh, really"? Loew is not quite convinced, will the backward Qing Dynasty in the Far East have any advanced technology?
"Mr. Loew, you are an insider, let me first talk about the guns in Europe now", Young Master Liang said eloquently to him: "Now your Prussian army uses firing rifles, the British's rifles are similar to yours, the French are more advanced than you, their latest Shaspoo firing pin guns are more reasonable in structure and better airtight, but in general, they belong to the same era as your rifles, Mr. Loew, am I right"?
Loew nodded and didn't speak, that was acquiescence.
"And this rifle I designed will have an epoch-making change, the bullets used are different, from the original paper shell bullet to an all-metal shell bullet, without filling the bullet can be fired six times in a row, the range is more than 600 meters, the effective range reaches 400 meters, the barrel and bullet caliber is nine millimeters." Because smokeless gunpowder has not yet been invented, the caliber of the barrel is not 7.92 mm made in Hanyang, but this problem can be solved by Young Master Liang himself in the future.
Loew couldn't believe it, is there really such a powerful rifle? When he served in the army, he still used a front-loading rifle at first, and then he used a rear-loading firing pin rifle, and the rifle designed by Young Master Liang improved so much that even he, an old soldier, couldn't believe it
"Douglas, do you think this rifle is so powerful"? Loew was not very proficient in drawings and could only ask his engineers.
"Judging from the drawings, it is indeed an unprecedented new rifle, and as for whether it can achieve those parameters, you will only know if you have made it and tried it." Young Master Liang only drew three views of the shape of the rifle, and of course the internal structure and details would not be drawn, otherwise it would become a technical leak.
"Mr. Loew, you can send these drawings and parameters back to Prussia and show them to your best gun designers, the Mauser brothers, and I'm sure they can understand them."
"Oh, you know two Mr. Mauser. Then I'll send them to Mr. Mauser if you wish."
"Okay, then I'll wait for good news", Master Liang shook hands with Loew and Douglas, and left.
Due to the delay in Lihe and the foreign company, there is not much time left to hang out. Young Master Liang left the Shamian Concession with two followers, found a restaurant in the city of Guangzhou, and took a boat home after lunch.
I saw a very grand restaurant near Shamian, there was a big plaque hanging at the door, and there were three golden characters "Penglai Pavilion" on it, and Master Liang was now also not bad for money, and walked in with the two brothers, and the people who ran the hall immediately greeted him, "Young Master, are you sitting in the private room upstairs or in the hall below?"
"Let's go to the hall, find a table", "Okay, you come with me", the three of them followed the hall to the table and sat down, ordered a few signature dishes, and the three teenagers did not drink, they asked for a pot of special herbal tea made by the restaurant, drank the tea, and waited for the food to be served. Eating out, if there are no outsiders, Liang Qiang and Liang Zhuang eat with the eldest young master, these two brothers grew up with him, and stayed in Hong Kong with him for a few years, they are both master servants and hair young, and the young master Liang has a good relationship with them, and he usually does not treat them as a person.
The service of Penglai Pavilion was in place, and it didn't take long for the meal to be served, and the three teenagers were at the age of gluttony, so they immediately ate big. They had just eaten half full, when suddenly there was a commotion from upstairs, and then the sound of plates and saucers breaking, and soon, two people rushed down the stairs, and someone upstairs immediately shouted: "Stop them", and before they could run out of the door, they were stopped by several people at the door.
Young Master Liang looked fixedly, and the two people who ran down were a middle-aged man with a young woman, and the two looked flustered. He thought to himself, this must be those scenes in film and television dramas, where the rich young master flirts with a woman from a good family. At this time, Liang Qiang kicked his feet below, the corners of his mouth were in the direction of the door, Master Liang took a look, and found that the four people who stopped people at the door were actually carrying knives, and suddenly took a breath of cool air, thinking that the identities of these people must not be simple, these four guards with knives are not something that ordinary people can have, and it is impossible for a young master like him to follow four guards with knives, it seems that the people upstairs have a background in the government, and they are very high-level, and the original intention of coming to the chivalrous and righteous scene was suddenly extinguished, He will not be impulsive in two lifetimes, not to mention that in this Qing Dynasty, the prefect of the county order that broke the family was destroyed, and ordinary people were looking for death when they opposed the government.
Young Master Liang felt uncomfortable for a while, and with his ingenuity, he had no choice but to be a bystander, being a passer-by A, and there were two passers-by B and passer-by C next to him. Wretch!
At this moment, two more people walked down the stairs, two young men, dressed in wealth and nobility, and both of them looked good, one had a flushed face and a lustful look in his eyes, and the other had a cruel look and a pale face, and the two of them walked with vain steps, and it seemed that they were hollowed out by wine.
Young Master Liang became more and more depressed when he saw it, this official child of the Qing Dynasty looked like this. Except for eating, drinking, prostituting, gambling, smoking, and bullying the common people, nothing else seems to be there.
The flushed birdman waved his hand vividly: "Take it away", ready to leave, the hotel ran hall did not dare to squeak at all, the shopkeeper frowned and said: "Rich boy, this account ······", "Remember", the red-faced birdman waved his hand again, and left with a group of people, the middle-aged man and the young woman were each dragged away by two guards. The shopkeeper didn't dare to speak anymore, and he didn't dare to mention the loss upstairs.
After seeing this, Young Master Liang no longer had an appetite, so he shouted: "Check out", ready to leave, he didn't want to stay in this unappetizing place anymore.
