Chapter 90
When he was led to the courtyard where he lived, Li Xiao almost burst out happy. Soap is very inexpensive, even for flavors. The cost of each piece will not exceed five big children!
In other words, I only need to spend 500 big sons. You can exchange it for a thousand catties of ore! This business is really profitable!
In this world, maybe only Li Xiao knows. How much value does that ore have! Daoist Zhang, who can only mess around with alchemy, actually doesn't even understand a fart.
"Big brother! Why are you so happy? After Li Xiu followed Li Xiao into the house, he made a cup of tea for Li Xiao. Just now, Li Xiao didn't let those two guys surnamed Chen pour wine!
"We've made a profit! Tomorrow we will go back to the island, and you will come here to buy ore from now on. ”
"I'm coming?" Li Xiu was taken aback, he had never done anything alone.
"You're getting older, and you have to help do something. Huzi does things with a tendon, and Brother Hao is small. I can't always do these things myself, I have to do it by you. ”
"Got it, big brother!"
Li Xiao's words instantly gave Li Xiu a sense of responsibility, since his father and mother didn't have it. The eldest brother has done too much for this family, and if it weren't for the eldest brother, several of them would have died long ago.
In the future, I will do my best to help my eldest brother do things, because what my eldest brother does is for this family and to give his younger brothers and sisters a stable life.
Li Xiao didn't see Li Xiu's expression, because the wine was surging. After telling Li Xiu about this, he fell asleep on the bed.
Yesterday at the wine table, the date of delivery had already been agreed. So the next morning, Li Xiao got on the boat and prepared to go back to Phi Dao.
"Fisherman! What did you do under Chen Dashuai? On the way back, Li Xiao chatted with the old fisherman. For these Ming soldiers who have beaten little devils, Li Xiao is still full of respect. Therefore, the old fisherman in Chen Fu's mouth has become the old fisherman in Li Xiao's mouth.
"The old man was originally a blacksmith, and later he was in charge of the craftsman's camp. Carpenters learn a little, and bricklayers learn a little. Anyway, the old man will have some of the objects in the craftsman's camp. When it comes to his craft, the old man said very solemnly.
Li Xiao's eyes lit up immediately, he didn't expect that Yu Lao was an all-rounder! I just don't know how the craftsmanship is!
"My grandfather is so good that the jewelry on the woman's head will be beaten." The little guy who was snuggled in the arms of the old fisherman suddenly said.
"Oh!" Li Xiao immediately became excited.
Li Xiao picked up the charcoal pen, found a stone slab and drew it. It took a while to finish the drawing.
"Old fisherman, do you think you can make this thing?" This is a very delicate little part, since the fisherman can make jewelry for women. Then it must be no problem to make this thing!
"This ......!" The fisherman picked up the slate and looked at it for a while, and after Li Xiao's explanation, he could be regarded as understanding the drawings drawn by Li Xiao.
Li Xiao's drawing is actually three, one on the left, one on the front, and one on the top. In the past, when I was learning machining, I often used this kind of drawing. It's the first time I've painted it, but it's still decent.
"It's simple, sledgehammer! Here you go! After reading the drawing, the old fisher put down the slate. Beckoned a strong man, this guy must be two meters tall. He was born with rough hands and feet, and his arms were full of scars, and he looked scary in dense form.
Li Xiao knew that this guy must be a skilled blacksmith. Because only a blacksmith would burn his arms like this by flying iron slag.
The fisherman explained to the sledgehammer in front of the drawings, and the sledgehammer immediately went to Li Xiu to ask for a carbon furnace. This guy was banging on the boat, but it took half a day to make the things on the drawings.
"Hmmm! Time is a little tight, and the work is a little rough. How about a big boss? The old fisherman took the accessories, smoothed the burrs with a file, and handed them to Li Xiao and said. Quite proud!
Li Xiao was shocked by their efficiency, he didn't expect that he hadn't done anything like this before. You can make it so quickly as soon as you get started!
This accessory is actually the upper cover door of the flintlock pistol, and the bolt hits the cover door and ignites the gunpowder, which can shoot the projectile out.
The reason why Li Xiao asked Daofu Youzhi and Zhao Tiezhu to concentrate on making the barrel of the gun was actually to prepare for the future equipment of the flintlock pistol.
The flintlock pistol is much better than the arquebus, at least you don't have to worry about burning the arquebus. Being able to aim accurately will greatly improve the accuracy of the firearm.
Moreover, Li Xiao also has a secret weapon that can greatly increase the range of the gun.
Chen Fu was a burden to be a fisherman, but he didn't expect that in Li Xiao's eyes, the fisherman was simply a baby pimple. Through his observations during this time, Li Xiao discovered that Inatomi Yuzhi was very proficient in the craft of firearms. But after all, he has not made firearms by himself for many years, and when he does his specific work, he seems to be not very skilled.
With people like the fisherman and the big hammer, Li Xiao estimated that he would never worry about guns again.
It's a pity that the process of fixed ammunition is too complicated, otherwise it is not difficult to make a machine gun even if it is to make a fixed ammunition. Machine guns are an absolute nightmare for all cavalry.
Along the way, Li Xiao was discussing craft matters with the fisherman.
Li Xiao was surprised to find that the old fisher was not only proficient in the craftsmanship of various craftsmen. Even in Chen Lin's fleet, ships were repaired.
If you can repair ships, you will definitely build ships. The thought of being able to build a ship on Phi Island in the future made Li Xiao so excited that he was feverish.
Phi Island is at sea, and the navy is essential if you want to survive. If you don't know how to build ships, that's a navy with wool. At least the current ship is broken down and can be repaired!
"Fisherman! Once you're on the island, you know what it's like. I don't dare to guarantee anything else, but I, Li Xiao, am well fed and clothed, and I still dare to pack tickets. Li Xiao stuffed the chicken leg in his hand to the grandson of the old fisherman. Watching the little guy's mouth full of oil, he couldn't help but lick his mouth.
"Hey......! We don't really want much, just two meals and one night. The old fisherman sighed, he didn't dare to think too much about the future. If you are used to living a hard life, you will have very low requirements for life.
"Huh! Fisherman, we all eat breakfast, lunch and dinner on the island. And you'll be paid every month, and you'll live in a reinforced concrete house. There is no way to take a house like that in a typhoon, if there is a fire in the house, you will be warm!
My brother said that in the future, there will be more children on the island. I would like to ask my husband to help me go to the island to teach the children to learn literacy. Li Xiu said with a smile on the side.
"Really?" The old fisherman's eyes almost fell to the ground, which was simply falling into the nest of blessings.
