Chapter 726 German Crossbow

Chapter 720 Seventh German Crossbow
Cheers of "O'zapft is!" continued to emanate from the crowd.

Heinrich came to the reserved place and greeted everyone to sit down, looked around Li Junge, and said: "O'zapft is means 'to drink', and you pay attention to the aprons on girls' waists, if the bow is on If it's on the right, it means she's single, and if it's on the left, it means she already has a husband or boyfriend."

The next thing is to serve the food and wine, and then, O'zapft is!

The hard dishes are roasted pork knuckle, and most of the other dishes are grilled. The beer content is higher than ordinary beer, which is quite enjoyable.

The atmosphere in the tent was very lively. The brass music played one piece after another, and everyone sang and hummed happily. Heinrich introduced that this is a German wine song.

This kind of atmosphere made Ah Yin very happy. Except for the different skin colors of the faces, it was similar to the festivals in Miao's village.

From time to time, people jumped on low stools and danced to the music. If they danced well, they would of course be applauded, but if they danced poorly, they would be laughed and booed in good faith.

This atmosphere made Ayin very excited, and when Heinrich and Ida encouraged him, Ayin also took off his shoes, stood on a low stool and jumped up.

Miao dances are either fast or slow, and the effect of conveying joy is one-on-one. After a while, a circle of audience clapping and cheering in rhythm surrounded the small table, and a brass band also came to Ayin's side. A few old men were playing traditional German music while shaking their heads, while happily admiring A Yin's dancing posture.

A few who thought their dancing skills were pretty good also brought small stools, jumped on them and cheered.

The atmosphere was bustling.

Ayin danced three songs before stopping. Li Junge handed her the beer. She stood on the stool and raised the glass high, cheering loudly: "O'zapft is!"

The crowd around immediately applauded and raised their glasses high in response: "O'zapft is!"

A Yin jumped off the stool, happily hugged several old men in the band one by one, praised their music, and then said thank you.Heinrich also gave some tips, and the old men were so happy that they didn't want it.

The crowd dispersed slowly, and everyone sat down again, Heinrich said: "I didn't expect that Ah Yin's dancing skills are so good!"

Li Junge said with a smile: "The Miao family has three things to do, singing, dancing, and celebrating festivals, and only after that can we talk about eating and sleeping."

Heinrich laughed and said, "It means that for singing, dancing, and festivals, you don't need to eat or sleep, right?"

Li Junge laughed and said, "That's the truth!"

At this time, a person squeezed over with a cup and said, "I saw Ingris dancing here from a distance, and I'm here to toast you. Ingris, you danced so well! By the way, Heinrich, why didn't you dance at the door last time?" Come up and talk? No need to bother Ingris with a presentation."

It was Lei Ao who came, and Heinrich introduced him: "Ingris is the chief executive of Lijiagou Village, and also the...well, spokesperson of Lijiagou Group. She came to your group to give a speech on behalf of her boyfriend. This is the president of Lijiagou Group, Jungle."

Li Junge tidied up a bit when he came out this time, at least he was wearing a T-shirt, but it was still a domestic product issued by the old company in Yuzhou when it held a sports meeting for employees.

Li Junge stood up, had a drink with Lei Ao, and said, "Mr. Lei Ao, thank you for your support in saving the finless porpoise."

Lei Ao looked at Li Junge's body and said with a smile: "It should be, but if it was you, I would suspect that it was a scam."

Li Junge smiled and said, "Actually, whether it's a scam or not, you all use the slogan 'dreams create miracles', right?"

Leo said with a smile: "This is a proposal that cannot be refused. Our group is already making a promotional film. By the way, we will go to your Lijiagou to take pictures. We hope to capture the finless porpoise and Ingris riding the red devil Shots of walking through the mountains."

Li Junge said: "Public service advertisement or commercial advertisement?"

Leo said: "Half and half, I heard that Ingris can't accept business advertisements?"

Li Junge said: "It's not that I can't accept it, but the impact is always bad. However, if the theme is animal protection and environmental protection, and the time of appearance is very short, it is not impossible. We will donate the proceeds to the Shanshui Fund for the Li family. Ditch environmental protection construction. Then there should be no problem.”

Lijiagou Group does not need to rely on Ayin to make money now. On the contrary, creating Ayin's image and appeal is far more important to the group than earning tens of millions.

Lei Ao is very arrogant, but he also divides people, and he just sticks to it. He immediately respects Li Junge.

After toasting Li Junge and A Yin again, Lei Ao said, "If this is the case, we will send it to the two of you for review after the book comes out, and we will fight according to what you said."

After finishing speaking, he continued: "The appearance of Ingris is very important, because the engine is called 'Boy's Dream'. With Ayin's participation, it can offset the antipathy of feminists and win the female market."

"Jungle, Ingris, you are indeed responsible Chinese. Thank you very much for your creativity and generosity. I believe our cooperation this time will be very pleasant."

Li Junge added: "Actually, if it's just a few shots, you don't need to ask the advertising company to come in person. The new best director of the Tokyo Film Festival, Si Xingzhun, has a movie that will start shooting in our Lijiagou soon."

"Then his two films, "The Rod Maker on the Wuxi River" and "Shu Mountain", were both filmed in our Lijiagou. If you want to say that the person in the film and television industry who knows Lijiagou best, he is none other than him."

"Mr. Lei Ao, I suggest that your group examine his works. If possible, it is most appropriate to give him the Lijiagou part of this commercial."

Lei Ao toasted Li Junge for the third cup: "Jungle, we will attach great importance to your suggestion, you are really a comfortable collaborator."

After talking about the matter, the topic turned back to the Oktoberfest. As for the commission and so on, that was Wang Lianghou, Fan Mei's sister-in-law and the others.

After chatting for a while, Leo said to several people: "We are holding a traditional crossbow competition over there, why don't you go and see it?"

Li Junge and Ayin were immediately interested: "Go, let's have a look."

When I came to the entertainment area of ​​the tent, I saw this glass cabinet in full bloom, and there was a gorgeously carved crossbow inside.

European crossbows are actually crossbows, but they are quite different from the Central Plains crossbows and Miaojia crossbows in appearance.

Leo opened the glass cabinet, took out the crossbow, and handed it to Heinrich: "Heinrich, you are from a family of military aristocrats, take a look."

The body of the crossbow is more like a rifle with a crossbow on the front, and there is also a foot ring on the front.

Different from the Chinese crossbow, the arm of the crossbow is much shorter than the Central Plains crossbow, and correspondingly much thicker, this is to obtain greater crossbow force in the case of a short crossbow.

The crossbow machine is almost the same as the one in the Central Plains, the only difference is the trigger.

The trigger of a Chinese crossbow is similar to the trigger of a modern rifle, while the trigger of a crossbow is a long metal rod that is almost parallel to the body of the crossbow. It can use the principle of leverage to trigger the arrows of the crossbow by gently lifting it up.

In terms of mechanical technological content, the traditional crossbow machine is far from even reaching the level of the Chinese crossbow machine in the Qin Dynasty.This also led to the need to use a longer crossbow body for the crossbow, which is not as short and powerful as the Chinese crossbow.

However, this has an unexpected benefit, that is, the crossbow tail can be placed on the shooter's shoulders to increase stability.

This crossbow is very gorgeous, and Heinrich flipped through it for a while, and passed it to Li Junge, who had long been coveted, and said to Leo: "Yes, this is the work of the Swiss craftsman Herd Winter, and the time should be ten. In the middle of the fifth century, the main material is hornbeam, and the whole body is decorated with bas-relief carvings of white antler pieces, and the wooden part also has exquisite patterns, which can be regarded as a fine work of art."

Leo gave a thumbs up: "Amazing, is there any more?"

Heinrich smiled and said: "Try me, right? The coat of arms of Württemberg is on those patterns, which shows that this crossbow is the personal property of Count Ulrich V of Württemberg. An important general under Emperor-elect Frederick III, commanding the main force of the imperial coalition forces to fight against Frederick I."

Leo cast his eyes on the ground: "This is the inheritance of the Delane family, right? Heraldry is such a thing, I think it's a big head."

Heinrich pointed to Li Junge: "Over there, their family is much older than ours. The first generation of the family is recorded in the [-]th century AD, which is older than this crossbow."

Li Junge quickly waved his hands: "Mr. Lei Ao, don't talk nonsense about Brother Hai, we are civilians, Brother Hai and his family are nobles."

Heinrich laughed loudly: "Come on, that old house of yours is as exquisite and beautiful as our family's castle. There are three hundred residents in the house and three hundred service staff. And your family has complete family members Pedigree chart, you tell me you are not a nobleman?"

Li Junge continued to shake his hands: "The relatives are all close and distant relatives. At most, there are occasionally a few officials who have studied and graduated from office, and most of them are farmers."

After finishing speaking, he said: "This is too complicated to say, don't think about it for three days and three nights, or we should play with bows."

Of course, you can't play with this bow. After Ayin finished appreciating it, Leo locked the crossbow back into the cabinet.Then take people to the playing field.

There are a few imitations here, which cannot be as exquisite as the Earl of Württemberg's crossbow. They are all simple and practical tools.

The arrow is one foot long and has three feathers. It is quite thick, and the arrow is like a large-caliber rifle bullet. The magic weapon that made the knight's chain armor withdraw from the stage of history is indeed extraordinary.

Li Junge quickly stringed the crossbow and handed it to A Yin.

Leo knew Li Junge was an expert when he saw Li Junge stringing the bow, and said, "Ingris can also use a crossbow?"

Heinrich said that Lei Ao was arrogant, but Li Junge didn't feel it at all, and said, "Oh, she is really a master at this game, I can't compare to her."

Leo asked in surprise, "Really? Heinrich, why don't we compete too?"

Heinrich was also in high spirits: "Bijibi, if you can lose to the Chinese in European crossbows, that would be a joke! Whoever loses will buy beer!"

And then...then it was a joke...

Ayin tried two arrows first, then shook his head, untied the rubber band that tied his hair, tied his hair into a bun, took a crossbow arrow as a hairpin, and then tightened his sleeves, while tying it with a rubber band. Into the arrow sleeve.

After getting ready, the two crossbows began to rotate.Li Junge was only responsible for taking over the empty crossbow from A Yin's hand, stringing the arrows and putting them on the table next to A Yin's hand, and A Yin was responsible for handing over the empty crossbow to Li Junge, then took a new one from the table, re-aimed and fired .

In the 50-meter target, except for the first two arrows that were slightly off, the rest were quickly shot by the two in a tacit rhythm.The firing speed is basically stable at every five seconds, neither fast nor slow, smooth and flowing, without any smoke, but the arrow does not leave the bull's-eye.

After the thirty crossbow arrows were fired, a large group of people had surrounded them, and the cheers, applause and whistle almost knocked down the ceiling.

Families with inheritance in Europe have always attached great importance to sports for their children's education. Mountaineering, skiing, sailing, rowing, horseback riding, fencing, and archery are the main items.

Leo was really convinced this time, raised his beer and toasted Ayin: "Perfect cooperation! Exquisite archery! Elegant demeanor! Ingris, you should not be a gentle oriental woman, you should be our German woman ! Should be printed on the mark!"

The mark was the currency used by Germany before joining the euro zone. There were three outstanding German women on the currency: Clara Schumann, Annette von Drost-Hulshoff, Bettina von A. Nimes.

Moreover, German women are rich in female men: tall, tough and courageous, independent and self-improving, with clear love and hatred.These are indeed very similar to A Yin's personality and temperament.
