Chapter 8: A New Beginning
At this time, Yang Chuangrui, who was lying on the bed, was still thinking about the information in Kohler's words, and then he sorted out all the information he had obtained from his mouth in the past two days.
He found that there were actually a lot of hidden dangers in this seemingly harmonious town, and there must be many people like Kohler, so he had to find a way to leave a way back for himself, and he couldn't pin his hopes on others when the crisis came.
At present, the most important thing is its own strength, and the development of weapons cannot be delayed, but after all, this still depends on the town, if you lose the support of the town, you will return to the original point, and all the previous ideas will become illusions.
Pate and Kohler are not very credible, and they are now completely unable to bring real benefits to themselves, so they just give up.
So now for the time being, there is only one way left to rely on the town, and when you can't afford to wave alone, you have to make good use of all the resources in front of you.
First of all, it is necessary to bring actual benefits to the town, help the town develop, and let the town survive this difficulty, so as to gain the trust of the people in the town, all in order to create a growth space for themselves, and if the development is good, maybe the town can become its own force.
Then I need to provide irreplaceable value as much as possible, and I can't invest too much time and energy in substitutable value.
Thermal weapons must be made so that even ordinary people can have good combat effectiveness, and the ruins that Kohler said must also be seen.
After the bullet is settled, go to Pete to verify the situation, cooperation is impossible, which will bring trouble to the town, but you can get location information on the grounds of verifying the accuracy of the information, and then talk about it for nothing, and if the other party refuses, you will directly give up the cooperation.
Well, I have to find a chance to talk to the captain to learn more about the situation and make a detailed plan.
…………
Early the next morning, Yang Chuangrui was woken up by a knock on the door, after yesterday's events, he was about to have a nervous breakdown, fortunately he heard the sound of a small stone, otherwise his first reaction would definitely be to take the sword first.
He responded, and walked to open the door without hurrying, and as soon as he opened the door, good fellow! There were more people coming today, a large group of Wuyang, and he even saw two old men in the crowd.
The yard is estimated to be full, and he also found that a few little kids who came yesterday actually brought their own small benches and snacks!
He wondered if he would have to charge a ticket or something in the future? Otherwise, I am thankful, but there is no concept of money here, currency! Yes, currency is a good thing, and this has to be on the agenda.
Yang Chuangrui put everyone into the small courtyard and pulled Xiaoshi into the room, this time there are adults, he is not worried about this group of bear children doing things, he now has to confirm the information of Kohler and Pete with Xiaoshi.
After some inquiry, Yang Chuangrui learned that the people in the town did not know the true information of Kohler's gang, according to Xiao Shi's account, Kohler's five were brought back by the fourth team of exploration two years ago, and they all claimed to be escaped slaves.
Three of them knew how to work with stonemasons and brought seeds for several new crops, so living in the town, the three of them were honest and capable, and soon integrated into the town, and even one of them found a partner.
Pate is a sycophant who doesn't know anything, but his set is not good here, the people here only respect the capable, he is also very lazy, he will never move if there is food around him, and he walks around the town every day, relying on his two brothers to feed.
Khloe is a suspicious man, he has a good relationship with all outsiders, but he often runs around, he has seen him everywhere, he likes to inquire about the exploration team, and he looks gloomy when he is alone, and he doesn't know what to think.
It was enough to get this information, and it matched exactly what Kohler had given, and then it was just a matter of going to Pate and his two brothers to verify the rest of the information.
There's no rush now, let's deal with the group of little kids in front of me first.
Then the two walked out of the house, looking at the crowd, Yang Chuangrui adjusted his state and put everything else aside first.
He said loudly: "Let's change the character story today, okay." ”
"What about the Great Sage?"
"yes, we're going to listen to the Monkey King!"
"We're going to hear a big havoc in the Heavenly Palace!"
There was a lot of noise in the crowd.
Yang Chuangrui pressed his hands to show quiet, but a group of hairy children still made a lot of noise, he had no choice but to shout:
"The Monkey King has been pressed by the Buddha under the Five Elements Mountain! Today we will tell the story of Little Nezha. ”
When everyone heard the familiar name, they stopped making noise, but there were still many people who were not very interested.
"Don't underestimate Nezha, he's very powerful."
"Say a myth~... Ahh "I almost started singing, Yang Chuangrui thought about it, let's talk about the birth of the demon boy, he likes this a little more.
Suppressing his voice, he continued:
"The aura of heaven and earth has been bred for thousands of years... Mixed Yuan Beads! He greedily absorbed ......"
As he spoke, he found that a few older children were still recording his story.
…………
And so it went for a few more days.
Yang Chuangrui told the children myths in the morning, studied his bullets in the afternoon, and the number of people who came in the morning increased day by day, and he had to change the venue to the town square, and some of the adults who had leisure time would also come to listen to it.
He told almost all the stories of Erlang God Yang Jian, Lei Zhenzi and other immortals, but what made him happiest was that he finally figured out the final formula for the propellant on the afternoon of the fourth day.
So he excitedly ran to the blacksmith shop, found the blacksmith brother, got a few shells and warheads that he had made before, and began to experiment.
After the bullet was assembled, he took a few gadgets from the blacksmith shop and tried to stir it up several times, and this time the propellant and fire cap were very successful, fully meeting the requirements of the idea, and then it was only left to design the warhead with various functions and formulate the eggshell with the appropriate charge.
After leaving the blacksmith's shop, he made his way to the farmland and found one of Keller's brothers.
They walked along the track and field to a place where there was no one, and Yang Chuangrui said directly:
"I know you're from Saroder, I..."
Before he could finish speaking, the other party made a direct move and punched him in the throat, fortunately he had been in a state of vigilance, so at the moment when the other party moved, he stepped out with his left leg, and his upper body was crooked to the side.
The other man punched the air, stabilized his body and shouted in a low voice, "You shouldn't have come to ruin my current life." "While putting on a posture and preparing to strike again.
In order to prevent the other party from continuing to move, Yang Chuangrui could only shout quickly:
"Pate... It was Pate, and he was the one who told me this. ”
Hearing Pate's name, the other party's mood was obviously much calmer.
"He wants to go home, we have cooperation, I am here just to confirm with you the information he provided, I will not disclose your situation to others."
After the other party calmed down, Yang Chuangrui finally got the opportunity to talk to him and got the answers he wanted to know.
According to the other party, the city of Saroder was a slave city-state, which was divided into two floors, the lower floor was underground, where slaves and homeless people lived, and the upper floor was where ordinary residents and nobles with noble blood lived.
The "explorers" in Pate's mouth are actually a small group of slaves and outcasts, because they cannot survive without the protection of the city, so they have to work for the nobles to obtain the right to live and a small income.
Their exploration team consisted of 5 people, four of whom were outcasts, and Kohler was the dogleg who was watching them.
After they came here disguised as fugitive slaves, they found that as long as they had a skill, they could live well, they could eat well, they would no longer be treated as animals, they would no longer have to exchange their lives for food, and the most important thing was that the people here would respect the valuable and capable people.
So three of them in the team decided to leave Saroder, to stay here and start a new life, to get rid of the old days when there was no tomorrow, and to live as individuals.
