The people present all expressed their approval, this is indeed a reasonable approach, the soldiers in the actual battle are highly nervous, their minds may be confused, if they go in the opposite direction, it will be embarrassing.

What is a short and powerful sentence to write?

There were three people who almost said in unison, "This is facing the enemy? "Face the enemy!" "This is facing the enemy!"

"It must be the least ambiguous and concise." Zhou Changfeng said firmly: "I choose 'this face to the enemy'." ”

The engineer bowed his head and said, "It's most obvious in yellow letters." ”

"It's not good, the yellow is too conspicuous, and the enemy may notice it too. If you want me to say, it's still white or black, and a few raised steel stamps, so that you can see clearly at night and figure out the positive and negative directions. The middle-aged man from the Ordnance Bureau said.

In addition, the choice of a mix of two prefabricated fragments, steel balls and thin and short steel rods, was a bit strange for these directional mine samples.

Generally speaking, when the weight of a single fragment is constant, the total number of cylindrical prefabricated fragments is more, but the flight speed is 10% lower than that of spherical fragments, and the average kinetic energy is about 19% weaker.

Usually it is a choice of steel balls or thin and short steel rods, either the number is slightly weaker, or the number is less powerful, which is really a bit nondescript to mix.

The Arsenal's reply to Zhou Changfeng was that after a number of tests, they found that such a combination could "take care" more evenly at all distances, and the killing effect was better than that of a single type of prefabricated fragments.

"I guess it's going to take an extra step."

"Yes. First, the steel rod is poured and shaken to make it evenly spread, and then the steel ball is poured into it. ”

Zhou Changfeng put the sample back into the wooden box, and said: "Explosives are consumables, this approach is just icing on the cake in my opinion, if it can ensure the needs of the front line, then it is naturally good to be better." But you shouldn't put the cart before the horse, sacrificing production for a little more power, and as a result, the front line won't have enough to use. ”

"It's just a sample." A steward of the arsenal said confidently: "You relax, this will definitely be weighed, we won't do the matter of picking sesame seeds and throwing watermelons." ”

Although there are still a few things that need to be improved, the efficiency of the Yingtian Arsenal still satisfies Zhou Changfeng.

It's just over half a year, and it's not a time of war to be so fast, it's really impeccable.

A few new weapons may be just a few small weights in the balance of victory, but each of them may contain thousands of lives on both sides of the enemy, the more the merrier.

Within a few days, Zhou Changfeng received documents from Shen Yu in the mail, which were several sheets of stitched vertical paper, listing the general information of six medium- or small-scale private gun factories.

There are local ones in Beijing, Lishui County, Yangzhou Prefecture, Shanghai Prefecture, etc., although they are all mainly engaged in gun business, but they still have their own merits in detail.

For example, the Daxin Gun Factory in Lishui County, with a small number of small people, a registered capital of 600,000 yuan, and a total of only 30 machine tools, maintains two production lines, only making .22LR sporting rifles and 12-gauge shotguns.

In a small factory like this, the experience and level of the workers are limited, and they have not even built automatic weapons, so it is unlikely that they can meet the needs of the perimeter wind.

He browsed it and pondered for a long time, and finally fixed his eyes on the Hengguang factory in Shanghai, which was not only a gun and ammunition business, but also a forging, albeit only for contract processing.

"I also took orders from the government police and Yi Anjun, I look okay."

The registered capital is 2.5 million yuan, more than 500 employees, more than 100 machine tools, submachine guns, pistols, civilian automatic rifles, and shotguns are involved, and the production experience is still good.

However, the factory is located in Baoshan County, Shanghai, and the round-trip journey is also hundreds of miles, which is not close in this era of slow train speed.

Because he had no business experience, Zhou Changfeng temporarily reworked the "Daming Business Law" and the rules of folk conventions, and he had a general understanding.

Sooner rather than later, he planned to take the time to go over in a few days to discuss the specific regulations on the spot.

It happened that in the past few days, the schools in Shangyuan, Jiangning, and Shangshang counties have been suspended, and most of the factories have been suspended.

Because of the inventory operation in the past half a month, all the major prefectures and cities have been unable to escape the riots.

In addition to the rebellion and shootouts triggered by the government's search for party henchmen, rightists such as the Democratic Party, the Sun Moon Society, and the Pioneer Rapid Society, which expressed sympathy for Endeavor and the Youth Yongyue Society, organized many demonstrations in solidarity. Not to be outdone, leftists such as the Kuomintang and the Peasants' and Workers' League organized their ranks to fight against them on the streets.

Although order is generally stable, the panicked citizens are still a little timid, and no one wants to walk down the street and experience a police and bandit war.

In order to avoid risks, all schools in the capital were ordered by the Education Bureau of the Tianfu Rite Hall to suspend classes for five days, and children should not go out unless necessary.

Of course, the students cheered, and the teachers were some happy and some worried, and people like Xia Xiaoshi who had a big heart belonged to the former.

In a window position on the third floor of the teahouse, she and Zhou Changfeng chatted about it.

The latter suddenly smiled and asked, "Are you bored?" I'm going to Shanghai, do you want to... No, do you dare to go together? ”

"What are you doing there? Few days? ”

"Talk about business."

Aha?

Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, Xia Xiaoshi, who was suspicious, asked puzzledly: "This is not in accordance with the rules, right?" ”

"I haven't told you before, that's the case, I'm going to ......," Zhou Changfeng briefly explained his plan to her, "one day back and forth, and two days there, a total of four days." ”

If you go to a foreign country for a few days, you must spend the night together.

Before the marriage is over, I will be with each other for four days and three nights, this... That one... Isn't it good?

Although there was a hint of apprehension, Xia Xiaoshi still agreed, "Okay, it's a trip." ”

To tell the truth, this is also an unexpected joy, although the atmosphere of men and women is not conservative now, but the degree of openness is also limited, and it is nothing for young couples to hug each other, but it is still not recognized by mainstream public opinion if they do not return home at night.

Zhou Changfeng proposed this considering that he and Xia Xiaoshi were already fiancés.

"It should cost a lot of money to invest in the gang like this, right?" Xia Xiaoshi suddenly raised her eyes and asked.

"Relatively speaking, there are a lot, try to be less than 90,000."

"Ninety thousand?! Where did you get all this money? ”

"A total of ninety-nine thousand, my cheap boss gave it, saying that it was as a gift money for the engagement." Zhou Changfeng said frankly, and then spread his hands and said: "This money is gray income, so I won't use it for expenses." So... Do something meaningful. ”

As for the fact that he still has a large windfall in his hand, there is no need to hide it, anyway, Xia Xiaoshi is a half-married daughter-in-law.

He felt that his father-in-law could actually guess a lot, but he just pretended to be confused and didn't know what to say.

All dynasties and dynasties are like this, the political arena is deep, and real money is indispensable to win over people's hearts between factions, which has long been a tacit routine operation of the Ming officials.

Money may not buy 10 percent faithfulness, but it can buy 90 percent. Most mortals in the world are realistic, who doesn't want to live a good life?

"Yes." Xia Xiaoshi nodded and said seriously: "As long as you are not extravagant, your salary and I are more than enough." ”

Zhou Changfeng couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.

Not to mention "not extravagant", I am 70 and I am 200, and my monthly income is as high as 270 yuan, and my food, clothing, housing and transportation are basically all covered by the army, and the proportion of disposable income is quite high.

The average monthly income of the people in Beijing is only a few dozen yuan, the blue-collar workers are about 40 yuan, and the white-collar employees have 60 or 70 yuan.

"That's... When do we leave? ”

"Tomorrow, you go back and pack up."

"Hmm."

It was only afternoon, and the two rested in the teahouse for half an hour, and then continued to wander around the nearby department store.

After dinner, it was getting late, and Zhou Changfeng insisted on delivering Xia Xiaoshi to the door of his house, and then left alone.

Although he happily agreed, the latter was still a little ashamed to say it when he returned home.

Seeing her daughter's squirming appearance, Gao Linglu, who was knitting a sweater, glanced up and asked casually, "What's wrong with you?" There is something to talk about. ”

"Hmm... He... He ......"

"Oh? What did my good son-in-law say? ”

"He's going to Shanghai Mansion for a few days, and he asks me if I want to go with him......" Xia Xiaoshi's voice became softer and softer, and her eyes turned to the side.

"You promised?" Gao Linglu, who didn't think about it, picked up the thin sweater made of armor and shook it, and then took a red woolen ball, "Go and go, and experience the feeling of living in advance." ”

Xia Xiaoshi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this-since her mother didn't object, this matter became the majority.

But she was still a little apprehensive and restless, so she couldn't help but find something to do to distract herself, and finally knitted her gloves with wool as well.

Since ancient times, needlework has been the basic skill of Chinese women, and the quality of women's crafts such as weaving, sewing, and embroidery has been used as a criterion for evaluating whether they are virtuous.

As for knitting sweaters, it is often thought that the craft originated in the British Isles or Northern Europe, such as the Royal Navy, where officers and men often sew and mend by themselves, including knitting sweaters. With the British Empire, this craft gradually spread all over the world.

In fact, long before the British came to make trouble, the Europeans living in Guangzhou, Quanzhou, Fuzhou, Hangzhou and other places had already brought all kinds of customs and culture to the Ming Dynasty, and for a hundred years, some inconspicuous customs had gradually integrated into the life of the Ming people.

Just like most Europeans today don't know that the tea culture, calligraphy art, and garden art that they have been accustomed to since childhood are actually deeply influenced by the East.

Halfway through the hour, the exhausted Xia Bing arrived home.

"There have been too many criminal cases recently, and there are hundreds of medium-sized cases in Nanzhili."

The clearance operation is in full swing, and he is naturally busy as a criminal officer.

Later, when he learned that his daughter was going to go to other places with someone Zhou for a few days, Xia Bing couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then showed a look of reminiscence.

I think about when I was young and went to Shanghai to study... Oh, at that time, it was only Shanghai Prefecture, and there were two periods of dust, which can be regarded as a few years of fulfilling and romantic life......

After a while, he stroked his beard and said, "These Heavenly Kingdoms are not stable in all places, just pay attention to some safety." ”

Xia Xiaoshi, who was happy in her heart, was overjoyed, and said happily: "Don't worry, what's so terrible to be with him." ”

"Yes, there are not a thousand but five hundred people who died from him, and he will be so frightened that he will turn around and run when he sees it." Gao Linglu said nonchalantly.

Xia Bing: "......"

Xia Xiaoshi: "......"

Benefiting from the preferential treatment of Chongwu Zhao again, Zhou Changfeng bought a ticket for the first-class bus at a price slightly higher than that of the second-class car.

Moreover, there is a new electrified railway between Beijing and Shanghai, which is second to none in Daming, and the average operating technical level is absolutely remarkable.

The ride is smooth, the noise is minimal, the leather seats are spacious and bright, and a variety of meals are available at mealtimes, as well as a variety of snacks and drinks at other times.

This represents the highest level of the train put into actual operation of the Ming Dynasty, in addition to the fact that there is an experimental high-speed railway called "no dust", some parts of the carriage are made of aluminum alloy to reduce weight, and the front of the locomotive is designed to reduce the wind resistance, with an average speed of up to 150km/h, but the cost is too high and has not been put into operation, which can only be said to be used to show off the technical level.

After a five-hour journey, the train slowly stopped at Chengxi Railway Station.

The turbulent situation has directly affected the flow of passengers, and the crowd is sparse.

"You put that thing away, and the bullets separate."

"Well, it's been unloaded."

Before boarding the train, they had to search their bodies and check their luggage, but the police pulled out the silver Browning M7903 from Xia Xiaoshi's handbag and made a big joke.

At that time, Zhou Changfeng was also confused, and it was thanks to the two of them that they were able to resolve the misunderstanding thanks to all the documents.

Why do you carry a gun when you go out of town? Xia Xiaoshi's answer is that the people have been unstable recently, since the documents are complete and the laws and regulations allow, why not take self-defense?

Driving east from the outskirts of the city into the city, the booming economic capital surprised Zhou Changfeng, and if you leave the dark side behind, it is really difficult to keep the heart calm in this glamour of the city.

In this era, there were dozens of high-rise buildings more than 100 meters high, cars and trams were constantly driving on the wide streets, the number of bicycles was more than in Beijing, and the clothes of passers-by and women were obviously more fashionable than in Beijing.

On the banks of the Huangpu River, towards [zhāo] Xidao Avenue.

This is actually the famous Bund, which the Ming people also commonly call Waihuangpu Beach, which is determined by oral habits.

A tall European woman with blonde hair and blue eyes, dressed in a modified gown, tied in a complicated bun, walked past Zhou Changfeng and Xia Xiaoshi with a handbag cross-body; Immediately afterwards, several Jiangnan women in dresses and top hats greeted them with Wu Nong's soft words.

This, this, this... Is this something interchanged?

When they looked strange, the two of them unknowingly stepped into a dangerous situation - more than 2,000 marchers in support of Endeavor and the Youth Yongyue Society were rapidly approaching, and in the opposite direction, thousands of workers-based processions were also hurrying forward.

Left and right clashes, crowds, and momentum, the danger of being caught in the middle can be imagined.

Looking at the rolling procession, Xia Xiaoshi said in horror: "First... Sir, we ......"

"Let's go!" Zhou Changfeng reached out and grabbed her wrist and ran to the side.
