Normally, the weapons produced by the Marin workshop have a unique gun number, which is a string of numbers engraved on the butt to represent the identity of the maker, consisting of six letters and eight numbers, the letters represent the race and initials of the maker, and the number represents the first gun he has ever made.

The absence of a gun number means that the gun has not gone through the final warehousing procedures and has been directly resold to this unknown organization.

Marin took out a gun and disassembled it to confirm the barrel - there would be a pattern on the end of the barrel, the hammer representing the dwarf, the sun representing the elves, the halfling's four-leaf clover, the gnome's big boots, and the human fist, which was another indication of which class of craftsmen the barrel was made from.

There was no pattern on it either, but Marlin could see an irregular cut at the end of the barrel - which meant that the end of the barrel had been artificially cut.

This means that the barrel is a non-conforming product - because a normal barrel must be printed with a pattern before getting off the lathe, and the only thing that will not be printed is a non-conforming product, because they are destined to be reprocessed, so the end of the barrel will also be cut by hand, and it is seen diagonally.

Marlin checked the length of the barrel and found that the tail end should have been cut twice, compared to the rifle that Tonkin was carrying, and the barrels of the two guns were about ten centimeters different.

"It's as if the butt has been lengthened, and the length of the handguard has been reduced to create the illusion of the rifle in our hand." Tonkin also saw the problem, and he looked at Marin, "It doesn't seem like the handguard is the wood that grows in our south. ”

"Yes, the butts and handguards are not from our workshop, and the disassembled parts are not standard parts from the workshop."

As Marin unpacked a few more rifles, he discovered the big problem - three bolts with length errors of +2 cm, +1 cm and -1 cm.

It's just a matter of the bolt, all the parts on this gun are handmade, although they fit perfectly, but with some parts, there is a problem.

In Marin's workshop, the craftsmen of this craft will be kicked out of the workshop by his compatriots - outside the workshop, there are high-level craftsmen who want to come in, and this kind of craft also wants to be embarrassed?

At this point, Marlin somewhat understood, these guns should only have the barrel from Marin's workshop - yes, with the large-scale shipment of Marin's workshop, now the rear-loading rifle is not a problem for some skilled craftsmen, the bolt can be copied these parts, but the high-precision barrel cannot be produced by hand.

And even if it is an unqualified barrel on Marin's side, it is a very useful good thing to put it in the outside world.

So, someone should have found the guy in the workshop who was responsible for recovering the unqualified barrels, and he deceived the world by providing money and sufficient metal, and the number of staff in the recovery team and the smelting team was equal, and these people usually changed their work schedules once a month, so it can't be said that every team has problems, but it is definitely not a problem of one group.

With this in mind, Marin took the rifles back to his half-plane, told Tonkin to hold the town and wait for backups, and then contacted Ayres - if it was urgent, Marin would have Ayres come and help.

Of course, the lich said yes - he had made a lot of money lately, Marlin had taught him a lot of the old things before the Great Doom, and he was even able to forge his own front loaders, so the lich was even more obedient to Marin.

Marin then takes the gun and Lulu open a teleportation tunnel and goes straight back to the workshop office.

There was only the elven ambassador on duty today, who listened to what Marin said, and then looked at the weapons he took out and became angry on the spot - these barrels are 10 mm, and the last batch of 10 mm barrels was made last year, and it was the dwarves who asked for these barrels, and the head of the recovery team and smelting group at that time was the elves.

The ambassador asked Marin to wait here, and he went to find someone, and ran out of the office in a rage.

"How can it be an elf?" Lulu was a little confused, because in her subconscious, it was impossible for elves to do such menial work.

"Well, if I remember correctly, it seems like they lost to the dwarves when they made a bet." Marin felt that if he remembered correctly, they originally wanted to compete with the dwarves for this batch of goods, and the elven ambassador and the dwarven master craftsman did not give in to each other, and in the end, Faye, who came to inspect, gave a bad idea - since you don't give in to each other, then it is not good to fight, and you still use cards to settle the dispute.

In Marin's opinion, if others said this, they were afraid that they would be spewed out of Fort Carter with saliva from the two great craftsmen, but it was Faye, Marin's lover, who came up with the idea.

So the two master craftsmen sat down and played a handful of cards, the elf ambassador's face was black, there was no king, there was no little king, sixteen flower cards were only the smallest four, and they were hung by the dwarf master and beaten, kneeling without regrets.

Marin remembered this, after all, it was the first time Marlin had seen him like this. Lulu listened to Marin's explanation, and her face was also full of puzzlement, it seemed that she had never seen Hei Cheng like this.

So the two of them sat there and waited for a while, and then they saw the elf ambassador returning to the office with the people. Marlin slapped the detection lie, and the first question was whether anyone knew that the substandard barrel had been re-sold, and as a result, all the elves passed the identification.

The elven ambassador was also confused, and he looked at Marin: "You ask another question?" ”

Marin nodded, and then asked the second question - did you sell to unqualified barrels.

Once again, all the elves have been identified.

Marin wiped his face, Lulu scratched her head, and the elven ambassador stared at the guns in a daze.

"Your Excellency, I would like to ask why you summoned us to ask this question." An elf asked.

Marlin took a gun with his psionic powers, and told the elves about it, and he saw the elves look the way they were.

"Uh...... Is there anything I don't know? Marlin asked.

"Yes, last year, Lady Anna and Lady Faye came over, they wanted a batch of rifles with a quantity of about two hundred, saying that they wanted to supply them to the National Order of the Northern Kingdom, at that time, the workshop was full, and the dwarven master craftsman and Lady Anna knew each other, so they selected two hundred barrels in the best condition from the unqualified barrels, and then asked the dwarven apprentices to go through the training process to make parts and complete the assembly for these muskets." The young elf, who was supposed to be the leader of these elves, smiled a little awkwardly, "You see, we haven't resold the barrel of the gun. ”

Marin almost didn't suffocate himself in one breath, dismissed the elves, and asked Mr. Ambassador to give them an extra two months' salary as encouragement and compensation, Marlin took Lulu to Rongma - it is better to ask about this matter, Lady Anna has not seen the dragon in recent times, and Marin can only go to her daughter.

Faye heard about Marin's intentions, and immediately helped Marin to solve his confusion - this batch of goods, the Northern National Order contacted Saya's mother, Lady Anna, through the Church of Justice, saying that she needed a small number of rifles, but she didn't say why, but the order would not have the habit of asking why, so Lady Anna took her daughter to the workshop, but found that the output of the workshop was scheduled for the year after tomorrow, and she had no choice but to let the dwarf master master transform a brand new rifle with a barrel that did not fit.

The accuracy of these guns is said to be mediocre, but it is said that they are very well received by the inspectors who came to test the guns of the National Order.

So one was willing to fight, the other was willing to suffer, and they were given the gun in October last year, and as for what happened next, I don't know.

Originally, this matter must have been told to Marin, but Mrs. Anna has no effort to run outside all day, and Faye can't touch Marin here, so he will forget about it after a long time, so if Marin hadn't come over to ask today, Faye would have forgotten about it.

Marin glanced at Lulu - how she was going around and around to the National Order.

Lulu was also puzzled.

But the problem is here, Marin's next stop has been settled, considering that the continuous teleportation will have an impact on Lulu, Marin is going to have dinner in Rongma and then go back - after all, there is no problem with the workshop, and the National Order has an accident, and Marin used to watch the excitement.

Since it was a break, Marin cooked, and cooked a lot of dishes with two cooks from southern Thailand, in addition to eating himself, Marin also prepared a lot of delicious food for the female guards sent by various churches.

After all, Marin has been away from home lately, and his wives need them to take care of them.

After dinner, Marin took Lulu back to Cosel Town, at this time Cosell Town was a lot more lively, and the arrival of the following regiments made the town a little overwhelmed, but fortunately, Marin sent all northerners, they were even able to use ice and snow to make snow igloos to avoid the cold, and the town had established a new defense line and camp.

Tonkin was much happier after listening to Marin's information and knowing that these weapons were not flowing out of the hands of the workshop moths, and then he briefed Marin on the afternoon's situation, and a reconnaissance team from the nearby Northern Kingdom troops came to see it, and after confirming that it was Marin's team, they ran away without entering the town at all.

This made Marin a little uncertain, but considering that some things were still explained, he still wrote a letter to His Majesty Mannheim, and then sent the letter to old Hagelberg - there are many such things, and I think the old man should have learned about it.

"I feel like you're embarrassing my grandfather." Lulu complained.

"Where did you come from, your grandfather has been used to it for a long time in the last month." Marin laughed after speaking, and at the same time his heart was still a little hairy.

Will the old man of the Hagelberry family accuse him of elder abuse?
