The second wind rises in Chang'an Chapter 195 Dare to be the first in the world

"Ding Wu!" Lu Chen shouted directly at Ding Wu, who was arranging someone to transport the glass, and as soon as Ding Wu heard his grandfather shouting to himself, he hurriedly told the craftsmen to transport the glass carefully, and then trotted all the way to Lu Chen.

"Grandpa, do you have something to order?" Ding Wubi asked respectfully.

"Have you made any of the patterns that my father gave you?" Lu Chen looked at Ding Wu and asked, Lu Chen gave Liulifang some glass design drawings, these things were the big killers that Lu Chen used to pit the family.

"Grandpa Qi, those patterns of yours are really a bit difficult, I've been trying for the past few days, and I've only made a few pieces!" Ding Wu said helplessly, they have been experimenting a lot in the past few days, but a few of the patterns Lu Chen gave them are beyond the outline for them, so they have only made two attempts in a few consecutive days.

"Ben Gong is going to take a look!" Lu Chen walked directly to Liulifang with Ding Wu, and Ding Wu accompanied Lu Chen.

Entering the Liulifang, a group of craftsmen shouted "Grandpa" directly at Lu Chenshili.

"No need to be polite, how are things doing?" Lu Chen asked.

"Grandpa, everything is here!" Ding Wu stepped aside and lifted a piece of oilcloth, revealing several glass objects that were covered underneath.

Lu Chen came to the front of those glass objects, picked up one casually and looked at it, the workmanship naturally cannot be compared with later generations, but in this era, it is already good, not to mention that there is still color added to it, looking at this object, Lu Chen is still quite satisfied.

"Where's the glass beads?" Lu Chen looked at Ding Wu and asked.

"Grandpa, all the glass beads you want are here!" Ding Wu took a box from the side and opened it, inside was a box of glass beads that glittered in the sun.

"Not bad! You're doing a great job! Lu Chen nodded, "Each person will be rewarded with three hundred Wen!" ”

"Grandpa Xie!" As soon as they heard that their grandfather had given another reward, these craftsmen immediately excitedly thanked Lu Chen.

"Do your best, the reward is indispensable!" Lu Chen said with a smile, "The method of making glass, my father has taught you, and it will be up to you in the future!" After Lu Chen finished speaking, he left Liulifang directly, and he wanted to see how many flintlock pistols he had recently made in his arsenal, and those soldiers who were not on duty on their backs practiced the posture of holding guns every day!

When he came to the steel workshop, Lu Chen saw a group of craftsmen who were busy, while Liu Laosan, who was the head of the workshop area, was walking back and forth seriously.

"Grandpa!" Liu Laosan, who was inspecting the workshop, saw Lu Chen coming, and just came over to give Lu Chen a gift.

"Excuse me!" Lu Chen waved his hand directly, and when those craftsmen heard Liu Laosan shouting "Grandpa", they all put down the men in their hands and saluted Lu Chen.

"You're busy with yours!" Lu Chen waved his hand at the group of craftsmen, and when these craftsmen heard Lu Chen say this, they continued to bow their heads and carry out their work.

"Third child, how many flintlock pistols have been made?" Lu Chen dragged Liu Laosan aside and asked, the steel workshop here is only manufacturing parts, and the place where it is really assembled into a flintlock pistol has been moved by Lu Chen to a hidden position in the back mountain, if you look at it from the outside, it is difficult to find it directly.

"Back to my lord, there are twenty-five!" Liu Laosan reported to Lu Chen.

"Have you tried it all?" Lu Chen continued to ask.

"I've tried it all! No problem! Liu Laosan said very solemnly, and with many test guns, Su Dingfang and other commanders of the back guards also completely understood why Lu Chen attached so much importance to this flintlock pistol, this thing is too terrifying, even if it is given to a teenager, it can easily kill, you must know that it takes at least three years to train an archer, and as long as you are familiar with the flintlock pistol, you can use this thing to kill, of course, the accuracy is calculated separately.

"Good!" Lu Chen nodded, with these twenty or so flintlock pistols, Lu Chen's plan is even the beginning, why did Lu Chen make a hundred flintlock pistols first, naturally it is to let the back guard practice with the flintlock pistol first, after all, this thing is the easiest to make at this stage, as for the good seedlings in the back guard, as well as those commanders, after they are familiar with the flintlock pistol, Lu Chen is ready to take out things from the base to equip them, at this stage, the things in the base are all non-renewable resources.

"It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish!" Can Lu Chen get the things in the base out of his head? The answer is yes! But if it is only used and cannot cultivate talents, and there is no knowledge inheritance, then the things in the base will be used up one day, and what will be done then?

Therefore, Lu Chen wants to gradually popularize technology and knowledge, so as to drive the development of Datang.

"How many bullets and grenades were made?" Lu Chen was naturally referring to the "paper shell bullets" used in flintlock pistols and the earthen grenades made from clay pots.

"Grandpa, the paper shell bomb is easy to make, and hundreds of rounds have been made in the past few days, if there are more people, more can be made! There are only a few dozen grenades! Liu Laosan looked through the booklet in his hand and reported to Lu Chen.

"Those women in the Zhuangzi can also work!" Lu Chen directly gave Liu Laosan an an idea, and compared to men, women will be more careful if they make bullets and grenades, "Especially those widows, of course, they have to pay their wages, as for how to do it, you discuss it with Du Chengze!" When the time comes, just report the results to my father! Lu Chen directly patted Liu Laosan on the shoulder and said.

"Grandpa, this... There has never been a reason for a woman to show up and work! As soon as he heard Lu Chen say that he wanted to let the widows and women in the Zhuangzi work, Liu Laosan said with some embarrassment.

"What? Just watch those widows live hard? In this Gong, the Zhuangzi, everyone is treated equally, but you remember, women are female workers' workshops, don't put those old men in it, you know? Lu Chen glared at Liu Laosan directly, then turned around and prepared to leave, "By the way, send twenty guns and two hundred rounds of ammunition to the Weiwei camp!" After Lu Chen told Liu Laosan, he left the steel workshop, leaving only Liu Laosan with a helpless face.

In the evening, Liu Laosan came to Du Chengze's house, Du Chengze's wife Liu made a few dishes, and the two of them and Du Yanliang sat in the hall drinking wine and chatting, "Our grandfather really wants to come out of the house, how can there be a precedent for a woman to go out to work!" After informing Du Chengze of Lu Chen's explanation, Liu Laosan sighed helplessly and said, then picked up the wine cup and drank it all.

"Aye, you can't tell your grandfather about this?" Du Chengze also looked at his father Du Yanliang with an embarrassed face.

"What do you say?!" Du Yanliang glared at Du Chengze directly, "What Grandpa decides is something that you and I can change?" Du Yanliang reprimanded Du Chengze, "What's more, you Aye and I also think that this move by the grandfather is a great good, this war has just ended, there are five or six widows in our Zhuangzi alone, we are the Huangzhuang here, and what about those Zhuangzi outside?" Du Yanliang said quietly.

"I'm afraid my grandfather's move is to set an example, since our grandfather came, are you getting better and better these days?" Du Yanliang directly asked Du Chengze and Liu Laosan, and the two nodded thoughtfully, since Lu Chen became the master, the food in Zhuangzi alone is much better than before, and people's spirit is also much higher, not to mention that after the Yuan Day, the children in Zhuangzi will have to go to school, which is something they couldn't think of before.

"Grandpa, this is the first in the world, and how much can you understand about our grandpa's whimsical ideas?" Du Yanliang directly gave his son and Liu Laosan a disdainful look, "So, whatever the grandfather wants to do, you just do it!" ”

"But can those women really be willing to come out and work?" Du Chengze still asked with some concern.

"Then let the Liu family find a few good sisters to go with them first and set an example for them!" Du Yanliang said very solemnly.

"But my son is worried that my mother-in-law is clumsy, don't fail to work at that time, but add to the chaos!" Du Chengze still said with some concern, and at the same time glanced at the Liu family who was waiting on the side.

"What? Are you born to do work? Liu on the side was a little unconvinced and scolded Du Chengze, "Besides, the third brother also said, it's all some simple manual work, which of our women's family doesn't have a good female popularity, in terms of fine work, you men may not be as good as our sisters!" Liu glared at her husband Du Chengze, judging from these words, Liu is also a person with a pungent personality.

"Huh! Be! Be! You're the smartest in your hand! Du Chengze looked at Liu and smiled.

"Okay, I'll take my sisters over to find the third brother tomorrow!" After glancing at Du Chengze, Liu Shi turned around and entered the back room directly.

"Then try it!" Having said that, what else can Liu Laosan and Du Chengze say, they can only sigh, I hope that these girls will not cause trouble to their grandfather at that time!

The next day, Liu made an appointment with a few neighbors and sisters to come to Liu Laosan, and Liu Laosan naturally took them to the bullet production workshop, of course, the bullet production workshop is separated, the gunpowder is the farthest away, a separate place, and Liu's task is to assemble paper shell bullets.

Liu Laosan found a craftsman to teach these women how to assemble paper shell bullets, to say that these women are really powerful, don't look at it and can't read, but in this kind of delicate work, they really get started quickly.

As for Lu Chen, he was asked to carry a box containing a flintlock pistol and paper shell bullets and came directly to the camp of the Beiwei guard.

When I came to the camp of the back guards, I saw the soldiers who were not on duty, who were holding their guns with sticks, and at the same time aiming at the single hanging line with their eyes open and their eyes closed.
