After a pause in his words, Yang Lin looked at everyone, saw that his topic had attracted everyone's attention and attention, and continued: "The firing principle of the bird gun is nothing more than igniting the gunpowder inside through the fire rope, so as to push out the warhead and achieve the effect of hurting people. ”

Some of the people and missionaries nodded in agreement, and Yang Lin said, "If we only need to add a device to the inside of the firecracker, the ignited part will be placed inside the bird's gun." In that case, as long as a firing pin is added, the moment the trigger is pulled, the firing pin and the flint inside will rub a spark and ignite the gunpowder, so you can save the time of igniting the arquebus. ”

The stunned blue eyes of the man named Zhao Xiang lit up, and his expression was full of light.

Then, Yang Lin took out two short muskets, threw them at Zhao Xiang, and said, "Here, this is what I got from the Westerners, you see, can it help?" Can you take these two muskets apart, refer to the internal structure, study them, and see how you can combine the bird guns with the muskets to make a more convenient weapon? ”

In an instant, the crowd surrounded them, completely ignoring Yang Lin's existence, and all looked at the musket in Zhao Xiang's hand, or directly and simply snatched it over, touched it, and felt this so-called "musket" that was much more exquisite than a bird's gun.

Yang Lin was very indifferent, and did not show his displeasure because he was left out. Seeing that everyone was already discussing around the musket, he also included what he had just said into the topic.

At this time, no one insisted on sticking to the original structure of the bird's gun, and it was all about how to improve the bird's gun? How to combine the bird gun with the musket?

Yang Lin watched for a while and listened to their issues, so he didn't stay any longer, and left silently, leaving behind the excited crowd, discussing and arguing there, and fighting for it.

Walking on the lively streets, Yang Lin was very helpless in his heart, and secretly sighed that the knowledge he had learned before crossing was still too little, and it was a little faded, and he couldn't remember it clearly. Otherwise, it will definitely be handed over to these people, so that their theoretical level can reach a higher level and their horizons will be broader. But Yang Lin could only sigh at this time, helpless. Not to mention, some modern equipment, which the followers do not have internally. If you talk too much, it will only add to your troubles.

At this moment, Yang Lin thought of Newton's laws, electromagnetism, mechanical knowledge, and so on. But Yang Lin can't say it, he can't talk about it. Because he has graduated for many years, he is afraid that he will make a mistake, which will affect the way of thinking of these people and solidify their cognition.

However, to Yang Lin's relief, in the first year of Jiaqing, that is, in 1796, Newton's laws had appeared, and some mechanical knowledge was relatively mature. Yang Lin is waiting for an opportunity, waiting for an opportunity to get in touch with Westerners, so that he can get relevant books, get Western scientific elites, and improve the quality of the entire R&D community.

In a flash, Yang Lin returned to the real society, walked to the backyard secret room at home, gathered the thirteen guards, and arranged the tasks for the near future, as well as some future plans.

Since Yang Lin completely eliminated the threat from his own clan and firmly controlled the various shops in his family, Yang Lin bought thirteen small residences in the name of various other people around the Yang Mansion, which were very ordinary.

At the same time, Yang Lin dug an underground secret room in the backyard, connecting to the thirteen mansions, through underground secret passages. After getting all this done, from now on, if Yang Lin wants to discuss anything important with the thirteen guards, he doesn't have to visit them one by one, he can discuss them in the secret room.

At this moment, Yang Lin was sitting alone in the secret room, waiting for the thirteen guards, not in a hurry or impatient, quietly thinking about something.

Soon, with the sound of footsteps, the heads of the thirteen guards came one by one through the secret passage and sat in the secret room. There is no distinction between high and low, and the thirteen people are treated equally.

Yang Lin's gaze swept over everyone, and he said slowly: "Uncles, I don't know how the flint I asked you to prepare, how is it?" ”

The thirteen people looked at each other, nodded, and one said, "Young master, it's all ready for you, three hundred catties." Young Master, is it enough? The others nodded in agreement, as did the unanimous ones.

Yang Lin didn't expect to be so happy and said: "Hehe, enough, of course enough, twice as much as I expected, thank you uncles!" ”

Then, Yang Lin seemed to think of something, his tone changed, and he said inquiringly: "By the way, uncles, how is your business?" I have some people here, can you help me adjust it? So that they can help me more in the future, I don't know if it is inconvenient for you? Is there time? ”

The person who took the lead in speaking, without the slightest hesitation, said cheerfully and loudly: "Young master, you are too polite." Isn't it just to train some people, this is the duty of these people, and we should do it. ”

"And, young master, you see, I'm also old, with gray hair on my head, and my body is no longer good. I've been looking for a successor lately, but I don't have a good candidate. Now that the young master recommends someone to come over, I don't have to worry about the successor anymore, I believe in your vision, young master, the recommended person must be good! ”

In an instant, Yang Lin knew that the other party had misunderstood what he meant. The other party thought that it was time for him to retire and hand over his rights, Yang Lin hurriedly said: "Uncle, don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else, I just want you to help bring people, and now I don't have many people available." Moreover, the business will get bigger and bigger in the future, and more people will definitely be needed at that time. ”

The man smiled freely, stroked his gray beard, and said leisurely: "Hehe, young master, don't get me wrong, I'm really old, I've been feeling unwell recently, I'm always tired, and I've long had the idea of finding someone to manage my business for me." And, after so many busy years, I also want to take a good break. ”

The others listened to the conversation between the two and quickly reacted, and they all said that they were too old to do things and needed someone to take over. Although the words are different, they express the same attitude, and it is time to retire.

Looking at the vicissitudes of life, covered with faint wrinkles, although Yang Lin was half-convinced, he was more moved, and his heart was a little panicked, and he couldn't help but have tears flashing in the corners of his eyes, Yang Lin tried his best to control it.

After the mood stabilized, Yang Lin admired these people at the same time. I can't help but think of the father who has never been masked, and secretly sigh that his vision is really accurate, and his recognition of people is even more accurate and vicious. I believe that he knows underground, and his subordinates in the past are still loyal, and they take good care of his son, and I believe that he can also look at Jiuquan.

Yang Lin thought that he just wanted them to help train his subordinates, and they thought so much. Then he did not hesitate to give up that wealth, gave up so many shops, and resolutely retired without showing the slightest dissatisfaction.

Yang Lin was grateful, the surface of his whole body was numb, and he said sincerely: "Uncles, since you said so, I will not postpone my nephew anymore. I'll get those people to report to you as soon as possible, and I hope to give you a little help. ”

"Well, good young master, these are all trivial matters!"

Everyone chatted for a while, and an older man from the Thirteen Guardians seemed to have something in mind, so he asked, "Young Master, the children you let us take in have already been taken in." I don't know when you will take it, it is not convenient to stay with us, after all, there are too many people to take care of. ”

Yang Lin was overjoyed and asked, "Is it a lot~?" "Yang Lin didn't ask one person, but all.

"Yes~" everyone responded.

With a slight groan, Yang Lin continued: "Well, let's do it, I'll go and take them away tomorrow, and by the way, bring the people I said to you, just two things to do together, save trouble."

While talking, Yang Lin had already adjusted the time inside the followers to be the same as reality, so that the group of orphans would always maintain the age of about seventeen years old, and the moment of enthusiasm.

The next day, Yang Lin arrived as promised, visited the thirteen guards one by one, got out the soldiers of the followers, and dressed them up again, each of them was in the costume of the Qing Dynasty. Then, Yang Lin arranged ten people in each guard's shop.

Then, after taking away the flint provided by the Thirteen Guardians and the children they had taken in, they were placed in the Followers of the Temporal History Reverser somewhere outside the city, in a no-man's land.

Subsequently, Yang Lin, followed by more than 300 soldiers, went straight to Fulong Mountain.

It's not easy for newcomers, ask for all kinds of support, ask for collections, ask for recommendation votes, and if you have a reward, you will be grateful
