Shuke and his gang of 15 people were arrested at the hotel by the police of the United Company of Fighters of a battalion, a company and a platoon at noon the next day. Of course, it was Kent who told the secret. If the previous person hadn't shown ill intentions towards Jenny, then even if these people didn't agree with his ideas and didn't understand his approach, he wouldn't have done anything. However, falling in love can lower people's IQ, and Kent cherishes Jenny so much that Kent can only report these people just in case.

Xiao Lin was also very speechless, he didn't expect such a talent who had always been a little resistant, to completely stand in the company's camp because of a woman. Even if he still has some friendship for his family in his heart, after this incident, the Addams family is afraid that he will be regarded as a target of killing. But that's fine, Kent is a military talent after all, and this time he has also handed in the nomination, and he can reuse it in the future.

Fifteen spies, of course, were very vigilant, and when the warriors approached, they noticed that something was wrong. However, their strength was still not comparable to that of the first battalion of these elite soldiers, and they were blocked before they left the hotel. They had no weapons in their hands, just a few short-handled muskets and daggers hidden in their underwear. The short-handled musket was fired every minute, and it was suppressed by the Yanhuang 1-style rifle in the hands of the soldiers, so that they could only shoot blindly without aiming, and the dagger was even more useless, and it was not as long as the saber in the hands of the soldiers.

In just half an hour, they were all taken down without causing any harm to the fighters. The spies were directly dragged away with their heads covered and locked in a confinement room in the barracks. For this reason, the soldiers in the barracks were very happy, because there were only fifteen confinement cells, and the spies took possession of them, and they would not be punished by confinement if they made mistakes. Xiao Lin didn't plan to visit them for the time being, because these people didn't have much use value. If it's information, Jaime and them can do it, and they don't have to go through the trouble of torturing these people.

On the day of the capture of the spies, a caravan composed of Indians entered the town of Yanhuang. This Indian is also an old acquaintance of Shawlin. They are a tribe of traders, and they are also the intermediaries who have made several large trades with Jaime and the others. With the aggressiveness of the whites, there were also some rudimentary forms of alliance among the Indians, which were still not united enough, but were much better than the previous melee situation before each tribe.

These Indians, united to fight against the whites and reclaim their own land and resources, also wanted to grab a handful from the whites. However, their equipment is simply too poor. Not many years have passed since the last Great War, and the white blockade of them is still in place. With the exception of the Indians who had explicitly taken refuge in them, who were able to buy a limited number of outdated firearms, the other Indians were able to use their own bows and arrows and cold weapons.

In this case, it is actually sending people to death. So, they had to find a way to get enough advanced weapons. After suffering so much, they did not refuse to give up their bows, arrows, knives and axes, and were very eager to get muskets and artillery. After dozens of rounds, they found a tribe of traders. The Trader Tribe has also gained a bit of fame around them by trading with Jaime and them, everyone knows that they can get their hands on white people's things, and the tribe is also equipped with muskets.

Although the Trader tribe can also be regarded as Indians who are close to the white people, they still hope that the Indians can rise up on their own and expel the white people from the American continent. Therefore, they will be very friendly to Yanhuang Trading Company, and therefore, they accepted this commission. However, Jaime could not have sold them too many muskets and cannons, and they were all backward models. However, apart from Jaime, they found themselves with a new option, which was Sholin's Yanhuang Trading Company.

In their opinion, Shoren is also an Indian, so the company is also the power of their compatriots. It's better to find a compatriot than to find a different race. The Yanhuang Trading Company also defeated the British army several times, captured a lot of weapons, and the equipment of the guards was better than that of the whites. The tribe of traders has always suspected that they have their own military factories. They didn't dare to hope for the Yanhuang rifle and the heavy-fist artillery, but the muskets and artillery captured from the British active army in the company's hands were going to be directly rounded.

Xiao Lin really didn't expect this, he had five thousand intact muskets and thirty-seven ordinary front-loading guns in his hands. If the rest is repaired, you can assemble about a thousand muskets and about a dozen cannons. These seizures, in Shawlin's vision, had only two uses. One is to sell them as handicrafts in the 21st century, which are all brand new things, and no one will believe them when they are sold as antiques, and the other is to dismantle and recycle metal raw materials.

Neither of these uses will gain much value, and if you sell them to someone else, the profit will be very high. Before receiving the people of the trader tribe, Xiao Lin specially asked his subordinates to find someone to count the prices of these artillery muskets. The Quald Patriarch personally led a team of thirty men in five wagons loaded with furs and gold ore to the Yanhuang trading town.

It was also the first time they had come to this legendary town, and they were relieved to see that there were Indians in the majority. As for those white people, they haven't seen them before, and they don't want to interfere in the company's affairs, so they just ignore them. Xiao Lin was counting the prices and sorting out the items, and then asked the officials who went to meet them to hold people down. The officials directly prepared a banquet, and for the first time they ate food with 21st century cooking skills, they also began to doubt their lives, and they used to eat pig food.

Quelder had wanted everyone to be a little more reserved and not to lose face. However, even his son was gobbling it up, and he almost couldn't help but become a starving ghost. After a meal, it took two hours, twice the total amount of the same people in the company, and the company officials were a little amused. Xiao Lin also asked people to spread the news and take people directly to the shooting range. Chaulyn sorted out a hundred muskets and ten three-pounder cannons, and waited for Quelder to inspect them.

When the two met, there was not much greeting, after all, they were not particularly familiar. After shaking hands and saying hello, we started talking about business.

"Patriarch Quelde, I also know the purpose of your visit, and I specially asked someone to sort out a batch of samples, do you want to try it. ”

"Patriarch Xiao Lin, you are really too sweet. I've brought a lot of furs and gold with me this time, do you think I'd like to inspect the goods first?"

"This is not necessary, if the Patriarch of Quelder can trust us, it is more convenient to have one of his henchmen bring furs and gold to our exchange to have a valuation, and then exchange it for our currency and trade. ”

"Yes, I'll let my brother go with you. ”

"Okay, then let's take a look at these muskets and artillery, I don't know if you like it or not. ”

Shoren said, taking a brown bass musket and handing it to Quelder. Quelder hadn't seen such a musket yet, and was a little unsure of what to do.

"Patriarch Sholin, what kind of musket is this?"

"Oh yes, you probably haven't seen it yet. This is the newest musket developed in Britain, and it was purchased by the white people of the colonies not long after it was used to arm the army against us, but it was captured by us after failure. ”

"These hateful white people just can't see us rise up. It's a good thing you're strong, otherwise we don't know if there's hope. ”

"Listening to the meaning of the Quaild Patriarch, he also hopes that we will rise, or will you bring the tribe to join us?"

"Ahem, this is not in a hurry, we will talk about it later, first talk about how to use this musket. ”

Shoren also doesn't force Qualde, and when he doesn't cultivate enough political talent, it's easy to get caught if he takes too big a step. He didn't bring up the previous topic and began to teach Queld how to use the Brown Beth Musket. This musket is not as complicated to use as the previous muskets, especially after using the powder and bullet boxes allocated by the company, as long as it is loaded in order to start aiming. The effective range of the brown bass musket was 120 meters, and in order to show the accuracy of this musket, Sholin set up a target at a distance of 100 meters.

Nor did he let the elite fighters demonstrate, Quelder himself went up, and under the instructions of Shoren, he began to aim in a half-crouch. I don't know if God is helping Xiao Lin, Quelder hit the target with the first shot, although it was not ten rings and nine rings, but also hit seven rings. Quelder had used a backward musket before, and he couldn't hit any target at all at a hundred meters, and he could only shoot at a distance of about seventy meters. This time, he was excited.

"Yes, yes, that's what we want, it's very good, I like it very much, how much does this cost. ”

After all, the Indians did not have an education system, and they were still not treacherous enough. Isn't this kind of performance a clear show for the seller to slaughter, but the people of the trader tribe present did not feel that there was anything wrong. The corners of Xiao Lin's mouth couldn't help but put a treacherous smile on his mouth, and he was not in a hurry to make an offer, and pulled Quell to the side of the artillery.

"Let's not rush for now, let's try the artillery first and see if you like it. ”

"Okay, let's try. ”

After all, this batch of artillery is also the active equipment of the British army, and Quelder and they are not dissatisfied. At the shooting range, they tried out all the weapons that the big man could shoot. Looking at their performance, Xiao Lin also determined the price. A brown bass musket sells for 10 Yan Huang Coins, and a three-pounder cannon sells for 50 Yan Huang Coins, and the caliber is doubled, and the price is doubled. And a piece of elk skin, Xiao Lin was only estimated at 10 Yan Huang coins. Let's compare it this way, a brown bass musket can only be sold for 100 to 200 yuan in the 21st century, while a piece of elk skin can be sold for 3,000 yuan, which is too profitable.

Shoren was still waiting to bargain, but unexpectedly, Quelder said so directly.

"No problem, we all want it, it's too cheap. ”
