Chapter 1050: The plan is postponed
Once there is gunpowder, muskets, and cannons, they will replace the current bows and crossbows, if this kind of thing is handed over to the Wanliu Empire by pirates, plus their air force, then who is still the opponent of the Wanliu Empire in the future, the Dongsheng Empire will definitely bear the brunt of the Dongsheng Empire's first target to march into the Great Road, which is inevitable.
No, the Wanliu Empire must not be allowed to get the formula for gunpowder, Yuan Fang made up his mind that this thing must be snatched up, and even if it can't be grabbed, it must be destroyed.
Thinking of this, Yuan Fang pretended to have a disdainful expression and said, "What flint powder, is it a black powder?" When it comes to fire, it ignites, emitting a dazzling light and a pungent smell. β
Pirate Armor was surprised and said, "You, how do you know?" β
Yuan Fang said proudly: "We also have this thing, you still have it." β
Pirate B retorted, "No way, the merchant ship was captured by us, and the flint powder was invented by their captain, and we asked, and only he knows the recipe." β
Pirate A echoed: "I was there during the interrogation, there is no possibility for that guy to lie, by the way, the kind of thing that can shoot iron eggs is also the finished product he tried to make for the first time, how can others until, you must be lying." β
Yuan Fang shrugged his shoulders and said, "Is it necessary for me to lie?" Otherwise, how would I know what flint powder looks like? That thing is also a treasure for you, and you have to make a deal with the Wanliu Empire, you are too naΓ―ve, that merchant may have already sold the formula to the Wanliu Empire. β
Pirate A smiled: "Impossible, all those people have been wiped out by us, even the captain's family on the mainland, our big boss has not let go, not a single one is left, it is impossible to leak it." β
Yuan Fang's heart was a little relieved, what he was most worried about was that the formula of gunpowder had been circulated, and now that it was okay, the two pirates proved that they knew nothing else except the pirate leader.
Seeing Yuan Fang's strange smile, the two pirates immediately became alert, and the pirate Jia looked at Yuan Fang gloomily: "Why are you asking this?" β
Yuan Fang said with an innocent face: "I didn't ask, it was you who talked about this matter first." The two pirates looked at each other and thought about it, and no longer paid attention to Yuan Fang.
Pirate B secretly asked Pirate A: "Do you think the Wanliu Empire will exchange land with our big boss?" Will we be able to get a lot of benefits when the time comes? β
Pirate A glanced at Yuan Fang and said, "It's hard to say this, if what this kid said is true, then our big boss's plan is probably going to be ruined." β
Pirate B was stunned: "Why? β
Pirate A had a stupid expression: "This still needs to be asked, if the Dongsheng Empire already has flint powder, then our formula will not be of much value, people can just send a few people to the Dongsheng Empire to inquire and get it, who will exchange the land with us?" β
Pirate B nodded as if he didn't understand, and looked at Yuan Fang: "What you kid said is true?" β
Yuan Fang nodded vigorously: "I don't have to lie to you, right?" β
At this time, the airship had already flown to an altitude of about three thousand meters, and the pirates took the airship for the first time and did not notice anything wrong.
According to the agreement between Yuan Fang and Guan Xiaoyun, Guan Xiaoyun saw that the time was almost up, and shouted loudly in the airbag: "Captain, the right middle exhaust hole is stuck, I'll take a look." "It's a code, a code to prepare for action.
Yuan Fang secretly screamed when he heard this, the formula has not been obtained yet, and it is not time to leave, but Guan Xiaoyun doesn't know this, what should I do, in a hurry, Yuan Fang said aloud: "Wait, you take a look at the tail first, I feel that something is not quite right." β
Guan Xiaoyun, who was preparing to escape in the airbag, was blindsided for a while when he heard this, the code is not like this, did the dean forget? No, as long as the dean answers, he can say a time frame for emergency repairs, and the dean's memory should not be so bad.
Guan Xiaoyun was at a loss for a while, went around to the other side and secretly looked in the direction of the cab, only to see Yuan Fangzheng being watched by two pirates, as if talking to them, it turned out that there was no way to get out for the time being, Guan Xiaoyun suddenly realized, looked at the two pirates who were sleeping with him now, Guan Xiaoyun had to wait.
The pirate leader heard the conversation between Yuan Fang and Guan Xiaoyun and hurriedly ran over and asked, "What's the matter?" Could it be that this airship has been tampered with by you? As soon as the pirate leader's words came out, all the pirates immediately became nervous.
Yuan Fang rolled his eyes and said, "I said that you are the leader of the pirates, can you use your brain when you speak?" You see, such a small thing can make people panic. β
The pirate leader was angry and said coldly, "I don't think you want to live anymore." β
Yuan Fang pretended to be scared, his face changed, and then his attitude became modest and said: "Don't worry, you have also seen, such a big airship is only operated by the two of us, and it is normal for some small problems to occur, even if it is operated by full staff, this situation cannot be avoided, rest assured, it will be repaired later, and it will not affect the flight." The pirate leader stared at Yuan Fang's eyes, nodded for a while, and turned to walk back.
Yuan Fang said loudly: "Big boss, do you really have a recipe for flint powder?" β
The pirate leader paused, stopped and turned around slowly, at this time, his eyes were full of unconcealable killing intent, flint powder, is his most important thing and bargaining chips, he has been in contact with the Wanliu Empire, the other party is willing to use a county of land as an exchange after verifying its power, but he has not thought about whether to exchange it before, as far as his subordinates, even if the Wanliu Empire keeps its promise, he will not embarrass himself in the future, but it is difficult to ensure that the other party plays yin, so the pirate leader has been hiding in the nest for this time and hesitating, Now that the nest has been occupied, and he has offended the Dongsheng Empire, he has no way out, he can only rely on the Wanliu Empire to seek refuge, and the premise of all this is the formula of this flint powder, but how can an ordinary airship pilot know such a secret thing, the pirate leader still maintains restraint and reason, and now he still needs Yuan Fang, otherwise, he will draw his knife and cut Yuan Fang now.
Yuan Fang was startled by the pirate leader's eyes, and stammered, "Don't mess around. β
Yuan Fang's eyes swept to the pirate leader's chest, just now he could see clearly, when the pirate leader talked about flint powder, he subconsciously touched it, Yuan Fang felt that the formula of the flint powder was in the arms of the pirate leader.
The murderous intent on the pirate leader's face did not decrease: "Say, how do you know?" β
Yuan Fang took a step back in horror, pointed at Pirate A and Pirate B, and said, "They said it, I heard it." β
The pirate leader turned his head to look at the two men, drew his waist knife, and said murderously, "You two are looking for your own death." β
