"Chen Zhang, now that we have so much more money, we can go and buy more muskets, recruit more people, and form more musketeers, and then we won't be afraid of anyone."

"It seems that the Flame Army should be able to expand again."

Qian Ruxue said excitedly.

After all, it is very dangerous to set up a musket battalion, and it also costs a lot of money, so who can think of it is like Chen Zhang, there will be money at every turn, which is really unexpected.

"What, expand the Burning Phoenix Camp. No, absolutely not, expanding the Burning Phoenix Camp is a very dangerous thing.

As soon as he heard this, Chen Zhang's hair exploded.

.. Just kidding only by virtue of these few hundred. You have already defeated the official family and retreated, if you really want to expand the army again, then it will not really be a god to kill a god and a Buddha to kill a Buddha

Chen Shou, who thought of this, rolled his eyes and hurriedly shook his head

"I'm afraid it's not going to work, after all, we need to go to sea now, and not many people are willing to go overseas. How many people do you think are willing to go overseas with us, even if there is a war now, the people of the empire are not living, but for many people, it is very dangerous to go overseas, so instead of buying so many sticks, but in the end, no one wants to go with us, and even if there is danger at sea, these weapons will lose their effectiveness due to soaking in water, we think that improving performance and researching gunpowder is the most important thing."

"Most of the rest of the things are to buy some daily necessities, buy more grain, food, peeling, seeds, farm tools, these things are the most important, compared to the fire things are still a little less."

Chen Zhang can be regarded as heartbroken, after all, the more weapons are purchased to form a musket battalion, the more they are formed, the stronger the number of people, and the stronger the strength.

He really didn't dare to do anything to the Dachang Empire anymore, he felt that he had already messed up a lot of plots.

At least a few of Ye Tian's luck have been snatched away by himself, and if he continues like this, what he knows will be completely unrecognizable, who will he find to kill him at that time?

Qian Ruxue was stunned when she heard this, she didn't expect Chen Zhang to refuse, but after thinking about it carefully, she finally nodded

"I see, you're right, in that case, then after we get these things to Haishang City, we will exchange them all for the materials that should be bought, and we can also buy them along the way, but if we run out of money and have no money, what should we do?"

Chen Shou's eyes lit up

"If you don't have any money, then find a way, and when you go overseas, these gold and silver treasures are not of much use anyway, you have to buy more seeds, food, grain, farm tools, and iron, after all, you need a lot of iron to make bullets."

Chen Zhang said hurriedly

"If I think about it now, I find that although there is a lot of money, it is also quite fast to use, and all these things are converted into logistics materials, in short, as long as they are not converted into combat power, it is already a lucky thing for Chen Zhang."

In case, if one day loses a battle, won't all these things be snatched away by others?

It was really a return to the pre-liberation period.

Congratulations, congratulations.

After seeing that he had persuaded Zhao Dachun and Qian Ruxue, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked around

"We've been here for three days now, and don't the officers and soldiers have the money to hunt us down?"

As soon as he mentioned this, Chen Zhang felt puzzled, he had done so many things, it stands to reason that he should be overwhelmed by the army.

Especially when Zhao Dachun's men actually killed a group of officers and soldiers and cavalry. I should have been annoyed and angry and killed all sides, but I didn't expect any kind of reaction."

Zhao Dachun and Qian Ruxue were stunned at the same time, shook their heads and said

"I really didn't find anything, it seems that I heard that they ran away because of something, and left and didn't pursue us."

what

Because something left, they didn't hunt us down, how could they do such a thing, it's not right at all, right?

Chen Shou gritted his teeth, and the corners of his mouth twitched

He found that when things became the way they were, it seemed like he couldn't do anything.

These officers and soldiers were almost able to kill themselves every time, which was really too embarrassing.

But after thinking about it, it seems that some of them have come to understand that this is probably the result of the super invincible luck they have

Otherwise, it would not be possible to have such a coincidence every time, which made him feel very surprised, and there was something abnormal.

Come to think of this. He let out a long breath

"It's okay, it's okay, at least it won't be long before your own people will go overseas, as long as you get overseas, then there will be nothing"

He didn't believe it anymore, if he arrived overseas, there would be other things.

If that's the case, then I'll admit it.

"If you want me to say, these officers and soldiers must be afraid of the lord. I know that you are powerful, so one by one you will not chase after them, if they dare to chase after them again, we will not be afraid of them, and we will still defeat them when the time comes."

"Is that so? The musketeers were indeed very strong, but I believe that after that battle, they must have lost a lot of muskets and bullets, and without muskets and bullets, do you think there is still a way to defeat them? ”

Chen Zhang directly rolled his eyes and spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, he hurried to the point that something was wrong, why did he tell them

Qian Ruxue was stunned for a moment and immediately said

"Lord Chen Zhang, what you said is not wrong at all, it is true that a lot of bullets were lost in the battle just now, and bullets are the most important."

"The musket is indeed very powerful. In such a situation, all we have to do is gather more bullets and make more bullets, otherwise there will be no ammunition. Muskets are useless.

The musketeers are indeed very powerful, and the only drawback is that they rely too much on weapons and equipment.

"We should find a city right now, and then find someone to make bullets, which is probably also very difficult, and ordinary blacksmiths can't do it."

Qian Ruxue was slightly stunned and immediately spoke

"I knew that when we were in the palace, we should have brought some craftsmen to make weapons and equipment for us. I regret it so much,"

The corners of Chen Zhang's mouth twitched.

What, when you are in the palace, you also want some craftsmen to help you craft weapons and equipment.

Are you kidding.

If you really want to do that, then things will be in trouble.

No. After all, to build weapons and equipment by yourself, then you need to buy raw materials, labor, and costs, and it will cost you more money and energy.

You know, weapons are consumables. It's not that easy to make.

In addition, the most important thing is that as long as you can make bullets and weapons, then you must need people to raise people, you must know that raising people is not a simple matter.

Thinking of this, Chen Shou's eyes instantly lit up, and he patted his thigh and said

"Really, how did I not think of this before? If I had thought about it earlier, it would have been simple, even if I had more money, I couldn't help but get in and out. ”

"That's right, make your own weapons, make your own ammunition, make your own gunpowder, no matter which one you have, this is a big consumable household, even if you have more gold and silver treasures, all of them will be used up in the end, this is a good thing."

The more Chen Shou thought about it, the more he felt right, and looked in front of him.

"I thought about it for a while, Qian Ruxue, your idea is very good, if you want to gradually become popular and continue to develop in the future, then improve gunpowder to make muskets, this is a must, the most important thing is that we must have our own blacksmith and weapon shop, so that we can produce gunpowder and bullets by ourselves, otherwise once there are no muskets and bullets. Muskets are of no use at all, and you don't want your gradual musket battalion to end up with no guns and end up with no guns."

"Of course not, great, Chen Zhang, if you want, then go to the next city, and we will find a way to make muskets and gunpowder. I think Haishang City should be able to have it, I remember that Haishang City has a special weapon making workshop, and we will go and grab it when the time comes, there will be no problem"

Boy. Looking at Qian Ruxue's excited appearance in front of him, Chen Zhang felt that he was really guilty.

Think about how gentle and virtuous Qian Ruxue was before, but I didn't expect to encounter something after following me now, and the first reaction was not to solve the problem through trade, but through robbery, directly robbing people and things"

I have to say that on the way, Qian Ruxue's thinking mode has also begun to develop in the direction of Liukou.

Sure enough, it is red near Zhu, and black is close to ink.

Zhao Dachun didn't have such an idea, but laughed hehehe

"Anyway, I'm only in charge of fighting, and we'll do whatever you say, my lord, there's no problem."

Looking at Zhao Dazui, who had an honest face, the corners of Chen Shou's mouth twitched

This Zhao Dachun seems to be relatively honest, but in fact, he is the one who destroys his good deeds the most.

If you don't want to, it's better to go overseas earlier. Leaving the Dachang Empire as soon as possible is the most important thing

Thinking of this, he said

"I have rested for the past three days, and you guys should rest well, and then we will take advantage of the fact that the officers and soldiers are not chasing, and we will arrive in Haishang City as soon as possible. I believe that Shi and Zhao Zhi should have arrived in Haishang City. We join them as soon as possible.

meanwhile

Not far from Shanghai, there is a city called Bohai City.

The reason why it is called Bohai City is because relying on Haishang City, after the materials of Haishang City are transported to Haishang City, they will enter Bohai City for a concentration and sub-packaging, and then through the sea transportation of Bohai City, symbolizing the transportation of inland places can be said to play an auxiliary role.

Although there are not as many as Haishang City, it is undeniable that Bohai City is also a place where rich businessmen from all over the world gather.

Even in the modern era of war and chaos, Bohai City is still quite prosperous.

A large boat slowly descends the canal, and the scenery is beautiful along the way.
