At about three o'clock in the afternoon, with the signing of the agreement by Stru, the Struh shotgun factory became history. But for Scrooge, this was far from the time to celebrate, the bank loan was about to expire, and if all the money in Scrooge's hand was used to repay the loan, then he would have almost no money to use for production. So, while repaying the loan, he also had to borrow more money from the bank. On the one hand, he persuaded Rockefeller to invest $2ooo in his new plant, and on the other hand, a week earlier, he had been working with Warren ? Draenor got in touch with him in hopes of getting funding from him. To convince Warren? Draenor gave him money, he gave Warren? Draenor showed off his patent for a rotating lock chamber. Scrooge believed that Warrendrano, as an adventurer, would definitely be able to see the value of this thing, and with this, the rifle could shoot several times more while maintaining its power.

Warrendrano was full of praise for Scrooge's patent, but he told Scrooge that his money had just been invested in a new venture—that he was trying to buy a railroad. So for the time being, he couldn't come up with the money to help Scrooge. But could he put Scrooge in touch with a brilliant banker named Junius? Morgan.

Junius? Morgan's name is known to almost everyone in the investment industry in later generations, and he is the founder of the famous Morgan consortium, which will become almost the core of the American financial industry in the coming days. Warren Delano told Scott that if he hoped to get money from Morgan, he had better give Junius a physical item as much as he could? Morgan looks. The day after he got the factory, Scrooge recalled some of his most skilled workers and began to build the world's first rifle with a rotary rear-pull bolt according to his drawings. In fact, this gun is almost a copy of the 1871-style Mauser rifle.

A group of the most skilled workers tossed and turned for three days before finally getting three of these rifles into Scrooge's hands.

"It's so heavy." Holding a MacDonald Model 1857 rifle with a length of more than one meter and a weight of nearly five kilograms, Shi Gao could only sigh.

"It's not heavy for a rifle, but maybe it's a little heavier for you, Scrooge. Well, you'll have to grow up a little bit more to be able to carry this thing. Rockefeller, who was invited to watch, snatched the rifle from Scrooge's hand and made a mockery of Scrooge in a very non-standard shooting stance.

"Alright, don't mess with this thing, let's let Mr. Kerry test shoot first." Scrooge said.

"Okay." Rockefeller knew he couldn't do the job, and in fact, he never fired a gun. So he handed the gun to Kerry, who was standing nearby.

Kerry is a veteran technician in the factory, and he has a good marksmanship, and most of the new guns in the gun factory were test-fired by him. Kerry, who is not a very talkative person, silently took the rifle from Rockefeller's hand, skillfully pulled the bolt, loaded the load, and then firmly pressed the butt on his right shoulder, and pointed the muzzle of the gun firmly at the target placed a hundred meters away.

"Bang!" A puff of smoke came out of the barrel of the 11mm gun, and Kerry put down the gun and looked at the target.

Carter was standing aside with a monocular, and he took a look at it and immediately reported the results: "9 rings!" ”

That's a pretty good result, but just one bullet doesn't say much about it, because unexpected luck always comes to mind. Scrooge knew that in World War II, one of the Germans Tiger once hit a moving T-34 tank at a distance of 37oo meters. This achievement is not necessarily possible with the M-1A2 tank decades later. And in the Battle of Kursk, a 2o3 mm gun of the Soviet army, separated by 12 kilometers, shot a shell through the unclosed hatch of a moving Ferdinand self-propelled anti-tank gun, an accuracy that modern missiles cannot do. Such an example does not really explain the problem.

"Bang!" Kerry fired another shot.

"So fast?" Carter, who was in charge of reporting the target, was taken aback, and he quickly raised his binoculars: "8 rings!" ”

"Bang!" "9 rings!" This time, as soon as the gun went off, Carter reported the number of rings.

……

Kerry fired ten shots in one go, and the results were basically from the eighth ring to the ninth ring, and one shot also scored ten rings. If one shot can be achieved by luck, and ten shots in a row have scored such results, it cannot but be said that the performance of this gun is quite stable.

Kerry stopped, and someone took advantage of the time to change the target paper.

"Mr. Kerry, you take a break, and then shoot ten bullets as fast as you can, and see what kind of results you can make." Scrooge said to Kerry.

"Boss, you don't need to rest, as long as they change the target paper." Kerry hurriedly said. Scrooge is the new boss, although he is very kind to himself, and every time he calls himself, he has to politely bring the word "sir", but he can't be out of proportion, let alone show any bad expressions just because Scrooge is actually a minor. From the appearance of the people around this little boss, he can see that this little boss is definitely not a simple character.

"Then it's hard for you." Scrooge smiled. Many bosses feel that they have supported the workers, and the workers should be grateful to themselves and should kneel to thank themselves for giving them a chance to be exploited. Scrooge did not object to such propaganda, because such propaganda was very beneficial to him. But he also knew that it was just propaganda. It is enough to make the workers believe it, but not to believe it yourself. Because once you believe this, it is easy to unconsciously put on a high stand in front of the workers, and this is not good for the relationship with the workers. Scrooge believed that a better relationship between the boss and the workers would always lead to an increase in labor efficiency, and if he could do it without spending money, why not?

By this time, the target paper had been replaced. Kerry stood up and got ready.

"Let's go!" Scrooge ordered.

"Bang, bang, bang......" In a few moments, Kerry had fired all ten bullets.

"Two full minutes, yes, ten bullets in two minutes." Scrooge looked at his watch and complimented.

"Two nine rings, three eight rings, four seven rings, and one or three rings." Carter also reported the number of rings. This result is far ahead of the accurate shooting results of those front-loading rifles at that time.

"Okay, let's step back another 1oo meters and see how this gun performs." Scrooge said.

……

A full day of tests showed that this was an epoch-making rifle. Even at a distance of 4oo meters, it is still able to hit human-sized targets with great accuracy. And the shot is far more than those breech guns that use Minnie rounds. Shoot almost five to six times more than them. This is a good gun that is unmatched in the world in terms of accuracy and shooting.

Scrooge chose the best of the three guns and was ready to take it with him to New York to visit the famous Junius? Mr. Morgan to get his financial support.

……

Tong guò Volyndrano and Junius? Mr. Morgan made an appointment, and Scrooge took Kerry and Carter on the train to New York. Rockefeller had also wanted to see Wall Street. It was at this time that his mother suddenly fell ill, so he had to stay.

After a day of train rides, I finally arrived in New York. The ox-cart-like degree of the train of this era made Scrooge extremely nostalgic for the "River Crab" that he often rode in his previous life. Scrooge was the first time to New York, Kerry had been here once before, but the stay was very short, so he felt very strange to New York, fortunately, Carter had been to New York a lot when he was a sailor, and every time he returned from Europe, he almost had to fool around in New York, so he was very familiar with New York, and he could be a guide for Scrooge.

They first found a small hotel in New York and stayed there. Scrooge would have liked to try the upscale hotels of this era, but, well, money was tight right now, so, under Carter's leadership, he found a cheap place to stay.

The next morning, they came to Morgan and the company to visit Junius as agreed. Morgan. But it wasn't Junius who came to receive them? Morgan, but a young man named J.P. Morgan.

JP Morgan was wearing a hot and crisp suit, his leather shoes were shiny, and his shiny light-colored head was combed back, looking like a rich second-generation playboy. But Scrooge didn't dare to be deceived by his appearance. He knew that the man in front of him, although indeed a playboy, was also the most legendary figure in the history of American finance.

"You're Scrooge?" J.P. Morgan seemed interested in Scrooge, "I've heard about your table on the Chicago Grain Futures Market. To be honest, although there are still a lot of problems in the technique, you really have a good eye. It's the first time I've been able to make money like this when I'm younger. I hope to make a lot of money with you in the future. ”

At this time, a beautiful maid dressed in a maid's costume came over and poured a cup of coffee for Jp Morgan, and the whole reception room was immediately filled with a strong fragrance.

"Ah, Eugenie, the coffee you brew is getting more and more fragrant." JP Morgan said with a smile as he reached into the maid's buttocks and squeezed it gently. The maid giggled and ducked to the side.

"Well, would you like a drink? We talked as we drank. J.P. Morgan said.
