Chapter 170: Hot Goods
"Ping Pong..... Ping Pong"
"Bang Bang"
"Giggles"
In the small shooting range in the back garden of the Marquis of Lorraine, Olive and Fani took turns to shoot the target continuously with the No. 3 revolver, experiencing the fun of rapid fire.
At this time, Charles was standing behind the two of them, and he was thinking about whether it was right or wrong for him to get the fire cap out in advance.
The reason why Fani and Olive can complete continuous rapid fire is not only the structural relationship of the single-action revolver, but also the special firing gunpowder is also one of the important reasons.
Charles had just designed a series of revolvers with front-loading flintlock pistols, and although the flintlock mode of black powder was simple in structure, there was a delay in the ignition of gunpowder, and the ignition rate of gunpowder affected the rapid firing performance of the pistol.
But if there is a fire cap, it is completely different, the combination mode of fire cap + gunpowder + impact bolt is already the pinnacle of front-loading thermal weapons, which can fully meet the technical requirements of the Shire.
Moreover, because of the development of alchemy technology in this world, basic chemicals such as nitric acid have appeared, and it is not difficult to make such things as thunder mercury fire caps.
The bullet propellant used by Fani and Olive is a granular black powder made by Charles with a diluted "Explosive Potion" potion as a binder, which ignites quickly and violently, coupled with the good ignition effect of the fire cap, which realizes the rapid burst of western cowboy fire.
However, it is impossible for this kind of propellant to be popularized on a large scale, because its cost is too high, and the spiritual power materials of the "Explosive Elixir" are not a large number of road goods, and can only be supplied as a limited edition special supply.
"The Mercury Fire Cap has appeared, will the rear-loading gun be far away?The complete decline of the knightly class....... How much longer?"
Charles had decided not to make a facilitative improvement to the world's thermal weapons for the time being, but he asked Roy to collect information on the development of muskets in recent years, and found that there were already attempts to replace the flintlock method with a new firing method.
"You must build your own arsenal legally and quickly!"
Charles finally has a sense of urgency, he now has skilled skilled workers, new processing equipment, nothing to want, the loyal military organization has not even seen a shadow, really to make Makqin does not have the ability to quickly and massively riot!
If you don't have a strong ability to fight and a powerful enemy presses you over, you're not dead?
With the strength of the Moyano family, under the banner of civilian weapons, it is one of the next development plans of the Shire.
"Okay Fani, don't shoot any more guns, or you won't be able to hold the knife and fork steadily in a while!"
Seeing that Fani was about to reload her pistol again, Charles hurriedly stepped forward to stop it, and just now he had noticed that Fani's wrists were starting to tremble, which was a muscle injury caused by a long handjob.
"Well! it's an addictive toy, and I think the ladies will love it!"
Fani gave up reloading, shook out the remains of the cap from the revolver magazine, picked up the strip and damp cloth next to it, and began to clean the gunpowder residue from the revolver with a seemingly skillful technique.
"You've used a musket before?"
"Of course, a nobleman can be illiterate, but he must not be able to hunt. ”
Fani nodded slightly, "But I usually hunt with a long spear, and the short spear is too heavy to hit!"
“........”
Well, this is an era of the whole people's fierceness, and there is no such thing as a real lady who does not touch the spring water.
"Charles, how much are you going to price this No. 3 revolver?" Fani wiped the pistol clean, and the more she held it in her hand, the more pleasing it became.
"If it's a practical model that isn't polished or silver-plated, I think three or five louis will do, and as for the silver-plated or even gold-plated luxury, you're going to set the price!" said Olivie. ”
"You don't know much about money, and you can buy such good goods for three or five louis? How is this possible? And although you can make money, you can also spend money indiscriminately......."
Olive was also tired, and muttered while wiping her little revolver, but the little girl's basic training as a knight over the years was not in vain, and after nearly a hundred bullets, her little wrist was still very stable.
"I spend money...... Am I not spending money on you?"
"All right, I will negotiate the price with Madame Butret Moyano, who is a shrewd businessman, and will certainly get the most out of us. ”
Seeing that Charles was about to fight with Olive again, Fani hurriedly persuaded her, this was the first time she had relieved Charles, and she had watched Olive make Charles speechless in the past.
As for why? My own man has a chance! At this time, we have to coax a little, the current Charr is not what it used to be, it is a standard hot commodity.
..........
..........
"Bourne, I have solemnly informed you, now the organization is in great need of those two spiritual power potions, now our potions have become a sought-after commodity in the market, we urgently need those two sought-after goods in exchange for cloth and food, our brothers and sisters are freezing and starving in the cold wind, but you two take my words as fart ......."
One of the heads of the Liberal Council in Nasser, the upright-looking Polka, was already a little angry, and the reason for this was that Byrne and Gerson, who were standing in front of him, did not fulfill his demands.
"Mr. Polka, Lord Count Bayonne is now very reluctant to provide a first-class potion, and he demands that the powder of tabby orchid and the juice of itch grass only take a small part of each transaction, and it is impossible to account for eighty percent of it......"
"Bang!"
Polka slapped the table angrily, "We have paid the OEM price of the second-level spiritual power potion, why doesn't he do the business of the first-level potion? Also, why is his OEM ratio getting higher and higher now? It used to be three strokes and one, but now it is almost four to one, do you know how difficult it is for our soldiers on the northern front? They endure the darkness .......?"
Polka began to speak at length again, but Byrne couldn't listen to a word.
In the past few days, Byrne has followed Charles's advice and brought Gerson into the trading of spiritual power potions, asking him to help him pay more attention to the movements in the council, and Gerson's head is indeed better than Byrne's, and it only takes a few efforts to find a lot of secrets from the mouths of the bald Doraun, the thin Hasen and the female secretary Lambie.
The spiritual potions that Polka got from Bourne were not fully recorded in the council's accounts, and a large part of the spiritual potions were personally embezzled by him, most of which were tabby powder and horse itch grass juice.
Now that Lumber alone can no longer meet the needs of the polka, he has applied for a secretary from above, young and innocent, and when Bourne came today, he saw the tears on her face, and he didn't know how to tell the feeling in his heart, and he didn't know who to talk to.
Gerson told Bourne that the juice of the itchy grass had a very strong effect on women, and that Lumber had been an innocent and beautiful girl in the first place, and that this bastard used this kind of thing........
Now that Charles didn't have to speak, Byrne was very resistant to the OEM of these two special potions, and Polka was still talking about "for the council, for the sake of brothers and sisters" in front of him, and he felt sick and vomited when he listened to it.
"The Earl's ....... There is some truth, maybe I can save more people, but I have to go to a higher position!"
Byrne remembered what Charles had said to himself, and thought that even he himself was afraid.
