please make me king

Chapter 163 "Arms Dealer"

When Zhang Shun heard this, he couldn't help being startled, but he said with a smile on his face: "I was originally called 'Optimus Prime', and I also had the nickname 'Megatron'. Do you know the reason? It's because I am good at making and using firearms." Therefore, if you have a good product, just bring it, and I will not treat you badly!"

Wang Qingzhi liked it and said happily to Zhang Shun: "Wait a minute, I will send someone to bring some color samples in the afternoon, please check!" After speaking, the man coughed twice, Excited to say goodbye.

Zhang Shun knew that his army's combat effectiveness was only average, and most of the time he still needed to rely on artillery to support the scene.He knew that the artillery he forged was not very good, and he was afraid of encountering an opponent with more firepower than himself, so he was quite concerned about this matter, and personally sent Wang Qingzhi outside the door.

As a result, Zhang Shun's behavior was actually seen by the next merchant who came in.He said to Zhang Shun: "General, this man is a stubborn guy, don't trust him!"

Zhang Shun just wanted to inquire about this person, so he quickly asked, "How do you say that?"

"This person is the grandson of Wang Juesi, the Taoist priest of Mengjin Chi. He is naughty and lustful, and he often does some deeds of bullying men and women. I never thought that this person would get carried away and bully the daughter of a Zhizhou. That Wang Juesi is just one How can you offend a magistrate of a prefect just because the Imperial Academy attendant lectures?"

"He had no choice but to sell some fields and houses, and collected some capital with this grandson. Let him go to and from the inland border areas to do some grain and cloth business. This fellow has some money in his hand, but he does not forget the old capital. Okay, I often go in and out between the fences, spend a lot of money, and spend a lot of money!"

"Even those who like to look for those who sell their art but not their body are often empty of both their bodies and their pockets. It is really ridiculous. A few days ago, it was said that in Datong, I found a Datong aunt and fooled around. I don't know how much he lost in one night, so I just want to run back and cheat some more money."

When Zhang Shun heard this, he stopped thinking about this person and didn't care much about it anymore.Unexpectedly, Zhang Shun was busy until the afternoon, and just about to take a rest, he heard Ji Dan coming to report: "A young young man came outside, saying that he had made an appointment with the master and wanted to make a big deal. He also brought a Two Taiping carts, heavy and tight, I don’t know what they are pulling!”

Hearing this, Zhang Shun felt a little vigilant in his heart, so he ordered Ji Dan to check it out before making a decision.After a while, Ji Dan ran back and reported: "It's just some iron bowls, iron buckets and other objects, and some iron balls. I don't know what to do with them."

After hearing this, Zhang Shun felt relieved that there were no assassins, and ordered Ji Dan to bring the person and the goods.

After a while, Wang Qingzhi and his truck were taken to the courtyard by the guards. Zhang Shun saw that the four-wheeled truck was covered with tarpaulins, and almost wanted to kick Jidan to death.

What are the "iron bowls", "iron buckets" and "iron balls" here? They are bowl-shaped, straight-shaped artillery and shells.If the other party intends to deal with him, it is too dangerous.After seeing myself, I have to find a shrewd confidant to serve as a bodyguard, otherwise I will be killed by two idiots, Wukong and Ji Dan, sooner or later.

Zhang Shun suppressed his uneasiness and asked, "Is this the firearm you mentioned?"

"Yes!" Wang Qingzhi pointed to Zhang Shun with a happy smile and said, "Look, my lord!"

"This is a cannon with a bowl mouth. Don't look at it with a shallow mouth and a big mouth. Put this flower bomb in and shoot it down, and it will blow up a lot of people!"

"This is a poisonous fire flying cannon. It only weighs twenty or thirty catties. It is loaded with ten taels of powder. It uses poisonous bullets. One shot can not only injure people and horses, but also poison people."

"This is a mother-in-law cannon, created by Qi Nantang. The bullet is made of wood and carved into screws, and twisted with medicine, which is the most convenient."

"This is Thunderbolt, made of pig iron, with a built-in fuze, hidden smoke and magic medicine, using it to attack the city, it can defeat everything!"

Wang Qingzhi was eloquent, explaining to Zhang Shun one by one.Zhang Shun looked at it for a long time, and thought: "Isn't this just a mortar? There are so many strange names, if you want to say it's amazing, it's the 'heartless gun' I saw in later movies."

"It seems that this guy wants to take me for a fool. I only need to buy a few samples and go back to study and study. Then I will cast a few big guys according to the method of 'no conscience cannon'. This is really a siege. gram!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Shun said with a smile: "You said these things, I don't have any shortages, but it's rare to buy horse bones with a lot of money, so let me buy these samples!"

"If you want to be my voice, it's easy to talk about. Can you get me some western cannons? The big ones are fine, and the small ones are also good. As long as it works, I'll take care of the money."

Seeing the failure of selling firearms, Wang Qingzhi was a little bit bitter, but he didn't expect Zhang Shun to say these words, and he couldn't help but cheer up.He quickly patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, my lord, there is no firearm that I, Wang Qingzhi, can't get. As long as you are willing to part with the money, I can get you even the red cannon."

It turned out that although Wang Qingzhi was a dude, he got on the way of the Datong frontier army through the relationship of his grandfather Wang Duo.At first, this fellow was rather timid, and only specialized in buying and selling grain and cloth.

However, the "Datong mother-in-law" is well-known all over the world, no less than the "Yangzhou thin horse" in the south. Once this guy comes and goes, he can't make ends meet, so he uses his brains.

To say that this Ming Dynasty is also a pill, the frontier army is often in arrears with food and salaries, and the soldiers often fight hungry is not a solution.At this time, the bandits in Shaanxi and Shanxi were in chaos, so they cleverly turned their ideas to "arms".

Wang Qingzhi was such a representative. They bought some obsolete firearms from the frontier soldiers at a low price, and then sold them to bandits and even the newly recruited troops by the court to earn the difference.

But this Wang Qingzhi was more daring, relying on his relationship with the frontier army of Datong Mansion, he wondered if he should get some elite weapons and sell them to Zhang Shun.

Zhang Shun would not worry about how the army over there "balanced the accounts", and how Wang Qingzhi resold the arms.The reason why he proposed to buy Western guns was actually to imitate them.This western cannon is actually a small Hongyi cannon. For Zhang Shun with modern thinking, the size is not important, the key is the shape of the cannon.

As long as he gets the samples of western guns, he is sure that if he improves and develops on this basis, he will be better than blue.

To be honest, the "Tiger Crouching Cannon" currently used by Zhang Shun is behind the times, and he is quite dissatisfied with the performance of this cannon, but due to limited conditions, he can barely cope with it.As for the pile of miscellaneous cannons bought for hundreds of taels of silver, Zhang Shun did not waste his money in vain. He was going to study the technical level of the "blossom bombs" of this era.

For a modern person, if a cannon can't hit a cannon that explodes bombs, can it still be called a cannon?
