Throne of Vientiane Civilization

"..."

Peter got straight to the point when he started and brought up the word ‘rifle’.

Zhou Xu really couldn't say that he was unprepared for this matter.

After all, Peter's situation was generally well understood, and he had very few chips at hand. Judging from the existing resources, he was almost completely defeated by Fisher.

Under this premise, from a development perspective, there are things that he may be able to acquire, and ‘firearms’ are one of them.

I have to say that this is really something Zhou Xu is very interested in at this stage.

From the perspective of military development, they continue to develop in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Following their modern thinking, it is time to enter the era of thermal weapons.

In fact, thanks to the rough drawings provided by Qin Fen, their firearms research and development project team in Dazhou has already been established. There are only a few people. The main one is to study first. The leader and consultant of the project team is Qin Fen serves concurrently.

After all, from an experience point of view, Qin Fen should be the only person in their group who has really come into contact with firearms at this stage, and has also experienced dismantling and assembling firearms.

However, according to Qin Fen's own statement, he actually didn't have much interest in firearms. At that time, he went to the shooting club just for fun. After all, this kind of thing was not available in China.

But after playing it a few times and getting over the novelty, he basically didn't have much interest anymore. His true love was still steam engines.

Therefore, he is not an expert when it comes to firearms, so Zhou Xu should not have high expectations.

Now that Peter took the initiative to mention the rifle, Zhou Xu was undoubtedly a little interested.

I just don’t know if the other party has sufficient understanding of this area. Don’t tell him the concept of firearms at that time, it will be useless.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xu simply staged a partial showdown.

"Of course I'm interested, but I don't know how much you know about 'rifles'."

Peter's face lit up after receiving this answer, and he subconsciously started bragging.

As a result, he had just opened his mouth and hadn't said a word yet. When his brain suddenly reacted, his expression was obviously confused and he even stuttered when he spoke.

"Zhou, His Majesty the Emperor Zhou knows about rifles?"

"Of course I know, after all, I am also the Chosen One."

Zhou Xu looked at Peter calmly.

Feeling that calm gaze and thinking about all his previous remarks, Peter's entire face suddenly turned red.

Good guy, isn't this embarrassing?

If the other party is also the Chosen One, then wouldn’t my earlier conversation with the other party make me look like a fool?

Fortunately, Peter's face was not too thin now. He quickly suppressed the embarrassment in his heart and looked at Zhou Xu again.

Zhou Xu, on the other hand, still looked calm at this moment.

His identity as the Chosen One is not even a secret within the Great Zhou Dynasty. Even Yalvette knows it. Those who don't know this are probably only those in the Smith Republic and the current Saint Laurent Empire. .

Zhou Xu didn't deliberately hide it, but he wasn't interested in telling everyone he was the Chosen One.

After all, for him now, the identity of 'Emperor Zhou' is already more useful than the words 'God's Chosen One'.

At this moment, the reason why he took the initiative to make it clear was to tell Peter that he also had some ideas about firearms. If you want to fool me with just a few words, then I advise you to give up this idea, otherwise you may Nothing good will come of it.

Zhou Xu didn't know if Peter understood, but after seeing him silent for a few seconds, he directly gave his chips...

"I can draw every component of the M1891, including the precise dimensions of the bullet."

Zhou Xu didn't know much about firearms, and he could distinguish general types, such as revolvers, pistols, rifles, etc.

At this moment, Peter opened his mouth and an M1891 came out. At best, Zhou Xu could guess what model of firearm it should be, but in fact, he had no idea at all in his mind. Who knows what it was?

But on the surface, he still looked calm, as if it was no big deal.

This made Peter feel uneasy.

"So you have drawn the drawing now. If it is just a rough drawing, it is useless to us."

Zhou Xu was basically telling him that he could make the rough drawings by himself. Peter, who heard this, quickly said...

"Before I came to this world, I was a hunter, and my favorite is the M1891. Although it is an old gun, in many cases, it is stronger and more reliable than those new firearms. I will review it every few days. It’s meticulously maintained and I know every component of it.”

Having said this, Peter nodded his head confidently.

"It's in my head now and I can draw it any time I want."

Although Zhou Xu still didn't know what the M1891 was at this moment, he didn't understand Peter's preference for old guns.

In essence, to put it bluntly, I like old objects.

Modern development is definitely becoming more and more intelligent, and things are becoming more and more sophisticated.

However, delicate and highly intelligent items often mean they are prone to failure. Once a failure occurs, they will not be able to function normally.

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

On the other hand, some old objects are simple in structure, strong and durable, and more reliable.

From this point of view, Zhou Xu himself is actually a person who likes old objects.

However, Peter's words alone obviously cannot make him continue to chat with the other party.

"Then I think you should draw the drawings first, and then talk to me about the next thing."

"I can draw it now!"

"Of course."

Zhou Xu did not stop him, and directly took the paper and pen from his desk and handed it to the other party.

"This is a pencil, you should know how to use it, right?"

Peter must have some concerns in his heart after taking the paper and pen, but at the same time he also knew that it was not easy to seize this opportunity.

From the perspective of strength, although the Saint Laurent Empire is stronger, considering the project of cooperative firearms research and development, the Great Zhou, who is also a God's Chosen and has developed gunpowder, is undoubtedly his best choice.

Thinking of this, Peter also made up his mind and planned to gamble on Zhou Xu!

"Wait a minute, it will be done soon."

With this idea in mind, Peter just buried his head in painting.

He was very good at using this pencil, and within a short while, he had finished the drawing.

"It takes a long time to draw all of them. The M1891 bolt is made up of seven parts, and these are three of them. I have also marked the precise data on the sides, which should be enough to prove my understanding of it."

Zhou Xu took the drawing and took a look at it. It must be said that the other party did draw it quite well.

After taking a few more glances, Zhou Xu put the drawing on the table.

"Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"
