Chapter 20 Is Nuclear Energy Available?
"Uh, this distance, it's too embarrassing......"
In fact, Nie Yun overestimated the firing range of ancient artillery, compared to the range of artillery fire calculated in kilometers in modern times, ancient artillery was more of a medium-range combat weapon.
A few more shells were fired, and even seeing that there was no danger, he personally lit a fuse. In the process, a lot of duds were naturally found.
After the excitement passed, Nie Yun began to think about how to deal with these shells.
Although he didn't think that he could rely on the firepower of such an ancient warship to cross the seas, he still needed the necessary self-preservation, what if he encountered pirates?
Well, even if the pirates are basically gone now, it is very exciting to pull them out and scare the children!
Armed fishing boats!
As soon as this thought entered Nie Yun's mind, he couldn't stop.
But with these ancient shells, not only is it dangerous, but he can't wash it when he jumps into the Yellow River when he is discovered, and the gunpowder control in the rabbit country is very strict.
Even if it's used to fry fish, it would have to open a lot of proofs.
The mechanical bug is not omnipotent, at least it has no way to combine into a consumable item like gunpowder, and even Nie Yun's pistol bullets are carried with him.
Could it be that you can only use solid bullets in the future? Although it has a certain power, it is completely artistic without an explosion! The excitement of shooting directly drops by half!
"By the way, I wonder if I can reassemble them after eating them?" An idea popped into Nie Yun's mind.
"No matter, try it, little ones, eat this cannonball for me!" Then a puff of smoke and the man ran away.
The mechanical insect carried out Nie Yun's order without fear of death, and the iron shell of the outer layer quickly disappeared in the gnawing sound of "rustling", revealing the black powder inside, and the mechanical insect continued to eat, and it was eaten clean after a while.
Nie Yun looked at it from a distance, there was no, and he hurriedly ran back to take a look, and was immediately happy, only to see that the mechanical insect that had eaten the gunpowder was covered in black, like a lump of black mud, although it was a little ugly, but it did not explode.
Nie Yun tried to ignite a handful of mechanical worms, but they didn't explode!
The flames only burned quietly on the surface of the mechanical insects, and the flames of this temperature were obviously only charging them, not to mention harming the mechanical insects.
After being completely burned, the mechanical insect reverted to its glittering silver form.
"Regroup!" Nie Yun then ordered.
The mechanical bugs quickly reassembled into a silver-white cannonball, which looked the same as the previous one except for the color.
Nie Yun took this cannonball and fired a test shot, and then was pleasantly surprised to find that not only the range had increased, but even the power of the explosion had increased.
However, at this time, a new problem arose, after the cannonball composed of mechanical insects exploded, although the mechanical insects that were the shells of the cannonballs did nothing in the explosion, they turned into silver-white balls and rolled back to join the large army.
But this way is okay here, if after the launch outside, the mechanical bugs are all recovered in this way, then wouldn't it be clear to tell others that there is a T-1000 here?
After thinking about it, he found another flowering bomb, and this time instead of letting the mechanical worm directly digest the iron shell, it broke down into iron filings.
Let the black mud mechanical insect roll on the iron filings, and then change rapidly, turning into a black flowering bomb again, and the original black mud mechanical insect will retire and become the original ecological mechanical insect again.
After the test firing, sure enough, the effect was still improved, and Nie Yun completed the feat of building a cannon!
"Haha! The children are powerful enough, so you don't have to worry about carrying ammunition, as long as the raw materials are enough, this seat can be turned into an arsenal anytime and anywhere! Ha ha! ”
Nie Yun immediately turned all the shells into iron filings and black mud mechanical insects, and stored them in the bilge of the Seawolf.
After solving a major hidden danger and even upgrading the Seawolf to an armed fishing boat at any time, Nie Yun's next visit did not cause any surprises or shocks, but it took Nie Yun a little effort to clean up the large number of skeleton remains in the cabin.
Nie Yun cremated the skeletons and threw them into the sea.
"Dust to dust, dust to dust, may your souls rest in peace! Whether you did evil or good in your lifetime, may your souls find their way home! Nie Yun's face was serious, and he bowed deeply towards the sea.
"The important thing is not to stay, hurry up and go back to your own home, find your own mother, we will not change the green mountains, the green water will flow for a long time, and there will be no time in the future!"
Well, this guy is actually furious when he sees so many bones, and wants these ghosts to hurry to the Western Heaven Elysium.
"Fortunately, I have enough brothers, otherwise I wouldn't have been scared to death when I slept at night!" Nie Yun patted his chest.
In addition to the mechanical insects that can't be defined, there is only one living person in the whole ship, Nie Yun is empty, like a ghost ship, although Nie Yun's courage is not small, but he is still a little worried!
"Gotta find a way to add some popularity to the ship!" Nie Yun held his chin and considered how to make himself a more majestic captain with a light pole.
—————I am the dividing line of evil————————
Two more days passed, and during this time, Nie Yun plunged into the base construction plan, except for going to the waters of South Australia to collect some raw materials in the dark at night, all the rest of the time was spent on the construction of the base.
The mechanical bugs have cleared a route, and getting in and out of the Seawolf is no longer a problem.
In addition, the number of mechanical insects has doubled, but the energy problem is getting worse, and the energy that burning wood can now provide is a drop in the bucket compared to the huge number of mechanical insects.
Just when Nie Yun was worried, Chu Xiaoxiao's call came.
"Hey, Nie Yun, I entrusted the auction house to sell your silver coins, the auction price is 13.5 million, after deducting the transaction fee and income tax, you finally got 11.53 million!"
Chu Xiaoxiao's first sentence made Nie Yun want to hug her and kiss her, and he would become a multimillionaire? Happiness came too quickly, too suddenly, and I didn't even have time to remember the bittersweet.
However, this money came too easily, and Nie Yun felt a little unreal.
"Also, I also found the ship you wanted, our group recently plans to enter the ocean trade industry in a big way, so we have acquired several companies and need to deal with a number of sea vessels, one of which happens to meet your requirements, I let the accountant calculate it and sell it to you for 9.85 million!"
Nie Yun was stunned for a moment, and then his face fell, according to Chu Xiaoxiao's speed of speech just now, it seemed that he had only been a multimillionaire for 5 seconds......
"So, with the remaining 1.68 million, you give me a bank account number, and I'll give you the rest of the money." Chu Xiaoxiao didn't know the ups and downs in Nie Yun's heart, and continued.
"Oh......" Nie Yun replied weakly, and then his heart moved.
"Xiaoxiao, you don't have to call me for the money, I just need something, you helped me buy it and put it on the ship, and I'll go over and receive it together when the time comes."
"Oh, okay, say, what do you need?" Chu Xiaoxiao agreed very happily.
"Well, I want a batch of energy supply equipment, preferably clean and pollution-free, you know, I'm an environmentalist!"
"Well, what kind of energy do you need?" Chu Xiaoxiao automatically ignored the environmentalists.
"Is there nuclear energy?" Nie Yun asked tentatively.
The greatest fisherman must have a nuclear-powered fishing boat!
Chu Xiaoxiao: "......"
