Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 26
Early the next morning, Sun Xin saw Tang Long come into the house with a piece of peeled black steel skin.

Before Sun Xin opened his mouth, Tang Long pulled him excitedly and asked, "Who made this machine?"

"This machine is so ingenious. I can't figure out how the craftsman who made the machine combined the layers of different materials together. It's so seamless!"

Sun Xin could only deal with it with foreign iron objects floating by the sea. Tang Long was very sorry when he heard the words. After repeatedly asking Sun Xin where the metal was found on the beach, it seemed that he wanted to go there again. Take a chance.

Finally, he had tungsten steel in his hands. Sun Xin quickly asked Tang Long and his apprentice to make two wrought iron pipes more than one meter long for him. Then Sun Xin went into battle by himself and made a simple boring machine. Then he instructed Tang Long took peanut oil as a lubricant and began to grind the barrel slowly. The hardness of the drill bit was still a bit lacking. It took Tang Long four days to grind the barrel and the rifling.

Then Tang Long, the leopard, wrapped the two iron whips with wooden supports according to Sun Xin's request, and added a trigger and gunpowder pool.Seven days later, Sun Xin finally received his own weapon, two "eight-sided iron whips".

Tang Long held this thing at a loss, and really didn't understand how to use it. Only Sun Xin knew what kind of iron whip he was holding in his hand. These were two strange-shaped Kentucky rifles. .

After a few days of dating, Sun Xin finally figured out Tang Long's character. He is very easy to get along with, and he has the feeling of a future technical expert. Sun Xin wanted to keep him in the Zhuangzi, so he secretly took Tang Long out at night to try it out. The effect of this rifled gun.

Sun Xin raised the iron whip that he had carefully trained for several days to get the aim right, and directly and accurately hit a humanoid target more than a hundred away with one shot.

Tang Long was stunned when he saw the iron whip blazing and making noise in the dark night.

"My village will expand in the coming year, and I want to build a few more muskets like this. Maybe brother Tang Long will come to my village to help?"

Tang Long immediately showed joy. As a blacksmith, he naturally realized the value of such a weapon, and even wanted to stay just out of the pursuit of technology.

However, Tang Long was a little confused: "I have made an appointment this year to go to several rich men's houses to make things, and I need to be busy for several months. Since I have already promised, it is not easy to shirk it. Can I come to your village after the New Year?" Help build firearms?"

Sun Xin also knew that Tang Long was a heroic character, and he was never willing to break his promise. If he forced him, with Tang Long's temperament, he would rather give up making firearms and fulfill his promise.

Thinking about my current strength, some cold weapons are enough for self-defense, and when the winter is over, my corn will be harvested, and my strength will expand again at that time, then I really need to build a family armed with hot weapons .

So he said, "Why not?"

Tang Long was overjoyed when he heard the words, "In this way, I will come after the next year, and I will never break my promise."

In the dog days, autumn has arrived, but the heat has not gone yet.

At dusk that day, Sun Li, who had left early on his errands, came to Shili Pai on horseback.

After entering the Sun Family Village, Sun Li first looked around to see the construction of the house with satisfaction, and then entered the house.

Looking at the construction patterns on Sun Xin's table, Sun Li couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

"How could we have imagined that our Sun family has such a reputation now, and we will add another stick of incense to the grave of my father and mother later, thanks to the blessings of their elders in heaven."

Sun Xin raised his head and smiled.

At this time, Sun Li suddenly saw the big box containing gold and silver beside Sun Xin. He felt that it was a bit unsafe to put so much money in Sun Xin, so he reminded Sun Xin: "Keep your eyes open when you sleep at night. With so much money, your village is newly built and very empty, so you must avoid thieves."

"Understood, brother, didn't I create a soldier armor?"

"It's used to prevent robbers from borrowing food. How can we prevent small thieves?"

"Understood, I just need to be more careful."

Sun Xin pushed aside the planting plan he had written, looked up at Sun Li and asked, "Is there a certain date for getting married in Hu's Village?"

"Hujiazhuang is also very happy to hear that you have a lot of income from selling oil here. Taigong Hu mentioned Dongyue and got married. I have discussed with him on the date. He will send gifts back in two days."

After the two discussed the matter, it was almost completely dark, so Sun Li rode his horse and hurried back to Dengzhou City.

Sun Xin asked Xie Zhen and Jie Bao to have a casual meal together, and then he went back to his room and lit the lamp to start writing the planting plan for this autumn.

For Sun Xin, who had arranged for agricultural cooperatives across several townships to work throughout the year, the planting plan of this ancient farm with dozens of people was actually not difficult, so he wrote quickly.

Suddenly, Sun Xin heard a small noise coming from the courtyard.

Shili Pai is basically a wasteland outside, and there are many wild animals wandering outside every night, so it is not surprising to hear some noises. Sun Xin lowered his head and continued to write, but soon he found that the noises this time seemed different from usual , because the voices of Xie Zhen and Xie Bao disappeared.

Usually, Xie Zhen and Jiebao should be ready to go to bed at this time, and the two children would come out to pee every day before going to bed, but tonight the two of them were silent.

Sun Xin secretly put down his pen, and stood up slowly facing the direction of the oil lamp. He tried his best to make the movement range of his shadow smaller so that it would not fall into the perspective of people outside the room. At the same time, he reached out and picked up the iron whip beside his desk.

Zhu Biaomao was in the shadows, with a knife in his mouth and a fire pleat in his hand, and he quietly groped towards the grain depot in Sunjiazhuang.

"What a rascal, dare to rob Zhu Biao's wife, didn't you earn a lot of money growing peanuts? Hehe, tonight I will tell you to burn the company! Let's see how you grow!"

Zhu Biao has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his skills are very good. He is not afraid of that little Yuchi Sun Xin. He has seen Sun Li's ability before, and feels that Sun Li is worse than himself. As for his younger brother Sun Xin, he must be better than Sun Li. Li is more likely to be weaker.

If he doesn't come out, that's all. If he does, Zhu Biao will rush up to him decisively and stab him. It's best to kill Sun Xin in the dark to express his anger.

Sun Xin glanced through the crack of the door, and saw a man tiptoeing towards his granary under the dim moonlight.

In the granary are the peanut seeds that I will plant next year. If this guy destroys it, my loss will be immeasurable!
Sun Xin quickly opened the gunpowder bottle and poured gunpowder into the gun barrel, then took a piece of mountain chamois leather wrapped in lead bullets, and used a cleaning rod to poke the gunpowder into his gun barrel.

After adding the ignition powder into the gunpowder pool, Sun Xin held his breath and moved the flint mechanism away.

Click, this tiny sound made the thief's figure stop for a moment.

Seeing the opponent's figure stop, Sun Xin shouted decisively: "Who is it!"

But the thief's eyes did not flash with fear, but turned around like a rabbit and falcon, raised his knife and made a gesture of both offense and defense.

Sun Xin pulled the trigger neatly, the flames flashed, and the man fell down in one fell swoop.
