Chapter 278: Prepare to exchange shotguns for cannons
  It should be specially used to mine ores.

However, this tool is so crude that if it were to be mined, the efficiency would definitely not be much higher.

Seeing this, Lin Yun sighed secretly, it seemed that he had to prepare in advance.

When mining iron ore in the future, we will definitely encounter similar problems.

If the output cannot keep up, then no matter how skilled your own iron smelting factory is, it will be useless.

Lin Yun stepped forward and tapped the protruding rocks on the rock wall with his fingers. His eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "It is indeed a copper mine!"

"Sir, you're not just here to verify the authenticity, are you?"

Lin Yun glanced at him and said: 'Of course not! I just want to take a piece of copper back with me! '

As he spoke, he picked up the pickaxe on the trolley and slammed it on the rock wall, and a piece of ore the size of a human head fell down.

He understood that the ore in this location was on the fringe and its purity was definitely not high.

However, it doesn't matter. Anyway, when you refine the bullet casing yourself, it is also a fusion of copper and iron.

Lin Yun picked up the ore on the ground and said with a smile: "Okay! Let's go!"

Jiang Kun was confused. He didn't understand that Lin Yun came all the way just for such a piece of ore?
  "Sir, why are you bringing a piece of ore back?"

"I want to take it back for an experiment! I don't understand even if I tell you!"

While talking, the two of them had already walked out of the mine.

Lin Yun wrapped the ore in a rag he had prepared in advance and carried it on his shoulder. He got on his horse and said, "Jiang Kun, I just observed the surrounding camps. The defense is too crude. Tomorrow I will order people to guard the mountain top inside and outside." We surrounded everyone outside and ordered people to patrol day and night, and no outsiders were allowed to enter!"

"Don't worry, young master, I have already arranged for scouts at the foot of the mountain to keep an eye on me at any time. There will be no loopholes!"

"I know, but the safety factor of this camp is still not enough! If someone sneaks in under the mountain, these soldiers will not be able to know it immediately!"

"I understand! I will arrange for them to take action as soon as daybreak!"

Jiang Kun could only agree.

Lin Yun nodded and said, "Okay! I'll take my leave now! Remember what I told you before!"

Jiang Kun cupped his fists in greeting and watched Lin Yun leave.

At this time, the soldier from before stepped forward and asked curiously: "Sir, who is this young master?"

Jiang Kun glanced at him and said: "I'll tell you what you should know, and ask less about what you shouldn't know! Knowing too much will do you no good!!"

"Yes Yes!!"

The soldier hit a wall and could only nod awkwardly in agreement.

Jiang Kun looked around at the soldiers and shouted: "Did you all hear it just now? Tomorrow morning, renovate this camp for me. Even a mouse cannot be allowed in. Do you understand?"

"Yes!!"

The surrounding soldiers responded in unison.

Jiang Kun nodded with satisfaction.

On the other side, when Lin Yun rushed back to Niubei Village, it was already dawn.

This was another sleepless night, which made Lin Yun feel tired.

During this time, he was severely sleep deprived.

Although I can sleep in during the day, my body still cannot get enough rest due to the reverse day and night.

Lin Yun also felt top-heavy.

However, along the way, he kept thinking about the information he got from San Yufeng.

There must be a big conspiracy behind this autumn day.

You have to be careful yourself.

In the early morning, Lin Yun took the horse into the stable and walked home.

As soon as he entered the hospital, he saw activist Yang Tiexin walking out of the room. It could be seen that he must have just woken up.

"Hey, Mr. Lin, could you have just come back?" Lin Yun stared at the dark circles under his eyes, which everyone could see.

"Hey, don't mention it! I'm sleepy after working all night last night! By the way, you've come at the right time. I just got a piece of copper ore from Taoyuan Town, and I still need you to help me process it. one time!"

Yang Tiexin glared and said, "Copper mine? What are you trying to forge?"

Lin Yun smiled mysteriously and said: "Come on, follow me!!"

With that said, he entered the operation room first.

Yang Tiexin followed closely behind.

After this period of contact, Yang Tiexin is also very familiar with this operation room.

Of course, besides Lin Yun, only Yang Tiexin is qualified to enter this operation room.

This is what Lin Yun ordered before.

Lin Yun came to the table and drew a rough outline of the bullet shell with a pen.

Yang Tiexin frowned and looked at it for a long time, then said, "What is this long and thin thing?"

Lin Yun smiled and said: "I want to make a batch of bullets containing copper and iron specifically for shooting! Do you still remember those fine iron parts that I ordered from you?"

Yang Tiexin's eyes lit up and he nodded: "Of course I remember! Does this bullet match those parts?"

Lin Yun smiled and said: "Just wait a moment, I will come as soon as I go!"

With that said, he pushed open the door and went straight to the study.

He took out the fine iron pistol placed in the drawer.

When he returned to the operation room, he saw Yang Tiexin looking at the simple drawings drawn by Lin Yun, frowning and staring, looking thoughtful.

Lin Yun took out the magazine of the pistol, compared the space in the magazine, and said, "This bullet is only of this size. You are very skilled, so it should be fine, right?"

You know, larger objects are easier to manufacture, and more precise parts are more difficult to manufacture.

The size of the bullet must be moderate, not more or less, otherwise it will be an unqualified product.

It cannot be used for shooting. Once the chamber explodes, it is no joke.

Lin Yun didn't even dare to joke with his own life.

The bamboo barrel gun was originally designed relatively crudely, with a lot of space inside, and compared with this fine iron pistol, the design principle is completely different.

Therefore, the requirements are also extremely high.

Yang Tiexin smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, I'm afraid this difficulty is not ordinary! I only dare to try, but I can't guarantee that I will succeed!"

Lin Yun smiled and said: "It doesn't matter! You try your best! If it doesn't work, we will forge it together. No matter how hard it is, we must make it!"

Yang Tiexin nodded and said: "Okay then! I will try my best!"

He was also very shocked in his heart. Every time Lin Yun gave him a task, it seemed to him that it was almost impossible to complete.

He suffered a lot last time in order to forge this fine iron pistol.

It only takes him an hour or two to successfully forge normal iron tools.

But it took half a month to forge the fine iron pistol.

During this period, I don’t know how many times I failed and how much precious iron was wasted.

He never mentioned these things to Lin Yun. Anyway, Lin Yun gave him enough money at that time, and Yang Tiexin was not afraid of wasting it.

But this time forging bullets was more difficult than last time.

According to Lin Yun, the bullet is empty and needs to be filled with gunpowder.

It's such a thin layer, and the requirements for forging skills are absolutely terrifying.

Lin Yun arranged everything, left the fine iron pistol behind, and turned around to leave.

He is very sleepy now and must catch up on his sleep.
