Jia Hu, a fan of wealth in the Red Chamber

Jia Hu was feeding fresh bamboo shoots to Gun Gun, and was taken aback when he heard this, "What's wrong?"

"When I was in the imperial study today, I heard from the sage that there will be no rewards for this envoy's visit."

"No rewards?" Jia Hu was startled, "Then what do you bring back for them? It's rare to come to the Heavenly Dynasty, so we can't let them go back empty-handed?"

Wei Jiang looked at Jia Hu firmly, the expression on his face was indescribable, "A reprimand order written by the sage himself."

"Pfft!" Poor Jia Hu didn't come up in one breath, and sprayed directly, "Reprimand order?!"

"Yes, reprimand order!" Wei Jiang replied affirmatively.

Jia Hu was stunned, and the villain in her heart couldn't help complaining: Oh heaven, heaven, earth, which fairy sister appeared?The saint also started to take an unusual path?

Wei Jiang looked at Jia Hu's unpredictable face, and stretched out his hand to touch it, "In the past few days, the fourth brother and the saint have said a lot of things they heard from you, and the saint thinks that these words are true, right? Otherwise, the old man How could it change the previous arrangement?" It should be noted that his uncle's methods are very powerful.

After rubbing my face, I finally let go of the heart I just raised, "This is a good thing. But our plan has to be changed."

Wei Jiang listened attentively, "What's your idea?"

Jia Hu tapped his chin, and said while thinking, "These days, our people have already saved almost all their money. The so-called being a human being keeps a line so that we can meet each other in the future. Since the saints don't plan to give them rewards, we also It's time to stop, if they really lose all their money, we have to prepare travel expenses for them to go back, it's not worth it."

"You mean, just let them go?" Wei Jiang raised his eyebrows.

Jia Hu snorted, "Who said I'm going to let them go?" Turning around, she walked to a huge box, buried her whole body in it, and rummaged through it for a while.

Wei Jiang followed him over, seeing him take out the contents of the box one by one, his eyes widened.

Forget about the parts he doesn't know, those knives, daggers, and spiked weapons with weird shapes, with a cold light, make people feel horrified.

Looking at these random things piled up on the ground, Wei Jiang's mouth twitched uncontrollably, and he bent down to pick up a gleaming knife, "What is this?"

Jia Hu looked back, "Oh, that's a bayonet, be careful, it's sharp."

Wei Jiang carefully looked at the bayonet in his hand. The blade was only as big as a palm. What made him unable to see through it was that the blade was made into a diamond shape with a concave hole in the middle.

Jia Hu: "Although this thing bleeds blood quickly, it is not suitable for the battlefield. It only has a stabbing attack method, and it is not convenient to carry. If you are interested, here is a dagger that can open blood. If you like it, I'll give it to you." While speaking, he handed Wei Jiang a dagger.

The alloys of this era are far from being as hard as those of later generations, and Jia Hu is not satisfied with the products made.

Thinking of those swordsmiths in the later generations who devoted themselves to restoring the ancient sword casting process, he wondered if he should send someone to Longquan to look for it, maybe he could find Ou Yezi's descendants?

Seeing that Wei Jiang was still looking at the dagger and bayonet over and over again, Jia Hu pouted, stepped forward to grab the bayonet, and stuffed another thing into his hand.Wei Jiang was taken aback for a moment, and thought about it with his hand, which was quite tight, and it was cold when he started it. When he looked carefully, it was a slap-sized hand with a cold light—a firecracker?

"Is this a firecracker? So small?" He remembered that Shentuqian gave Jia Hu a firecracker, which was as long as an arm. This?Shrunk?

"Yes, this is the firecracker that I asked the craftsmen to make for self-defense. It's a pity that the steel is not good enough, otherwise it can be made better." Jia Hu sighed.

Although he knew some simple methods of refining metals, the finer ones were useless. That's all, the craftsmen continued to explore them based on his dictation. He was already satisfied with such achievements.

Wei Jiang touched the cold firecracker in his hand. In his opinion, this firecracker was good enough. If it was taken out, it would definitely drive the soldiers on the border crazy.

He didn't know what kind of steel Jia Hu said could pass the test. If the steel that Jia Hu was satisfied with was really made, then could this firearm be improved?

Jia Hu also had a firecracker of a similar style in his hand.He made this firecracker modeled after the May [-]th pistol.However, when he was in military training, he was exposed to rifles. Although he had seen the structural diagrams of various firearms, it was easier to make a rifle that he had seen with his own hands.

As for this pistol, it comes from many imitation guns. He really admires the current craftsmen. The half-baked theory he put forward by such a half-baked guy actually let them make it. He is so happy that he is a rare one Wealth boy.

It really hurts to think about it, no matter what, I should make up for it from those envoys.

He took the cotton cloth on the side and carefully wiped the shiny gun body, "These were just delivered yesterday, and I haven't tried them yet."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's try it now." Wei Jiang hurriedly pulled Jia Hu to go out.

"What's the rush? There's no place to try it at my house, and it's not suitable for trying this stuff. It will cause everyone to panic. You'd better go and call Lord Shang Wei and Fourth Brother, let's go to Day Camp in the suburbs of Beijing." Turning to Yun Shu ordered, "You go to Hou's mansion, and invite the two masters to go too."

Yun Shu took the order and ran out quickly.

Wei Jiang thought so, and immediately asked Huai Qing to call someone, Huai Qing went out and called the two servants who followed him to invite someone respectively.Wei Jiang took Jia Hu and brought a box of unassembled gun parts to Daying in the suburbs of Beijing.

Jia Hu was dragged to run all the way, but fortunately his physical fitness is good, otherwise he really couldn't keep up.

The anxious two didn't notice that Luo Yun and Huai Qing, who were packing up behind them, took advantage of Qingfeng and the others not paying attention, and looked at each other. The tacit understanding of the two things that they had already set eyes on, they acted as if nothing had happened. followed.

When Shen Tuqian, Shen Xuan, Yang Liu, King Zhongyong and Princess Jiahui arrived at the camp in the suburbs of Beijing, they found that there were significantly fewer guards outside the camp. Those who are absent-minded will look into the camp from time to time.

Shen Xuan and Prince Wei glanced at each other. Both of them are people who run the army rigorously. How can the desertion behavior of the soldiers be noticeable? !

Shen Xuan approached a soldier and saw that he was still looking around and didn't even know he was approaching. He was even more dissatisfied, "Cough!"

The soldier was startled, turned around and saw that it was Marquis Wu An, and immediately ran down on one knee to plead guilty, "Lord Marquis!"

Shen Xuan asked, "What happened inside? Where are the others?"

Seeing that Shen Xuan didn't send him off, the soldier secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said everything, "Back to Lord Marquis, early this morning, Wei Shizi and a young man brought a box of firecrackers to the camp, saying they were going to try shooting. I heard from the captain that the firecracker is more powerful than the firearms in the army and has a longer range. The most important thing is that the firecracker can fire continuously. The younger ones were very curious. Several brothers discussed it and changed it in turn. I went to see it. Who knew that after the first wave of people went in, they never came out, and the others couldn't wait, so they all went in."

"Oh? Brother Hu made the firearm?" Shen Tuqian didn't expect that when Jia Hu said he could improve the firearm, he actually made it, and the speed was really fast.

"What's going on here?" Princess Jiahui hurriedly asked.

Only then did Shen Tuqian tell the beginning of the matter.

It's just that he didn't know that Jia Xiaohu had been studying the firearm for a long time before he gave it to Jia Hu, but it was normal to take it out at this time.

King Wei was impatient, and before Shen Tuqian finished speaking, he couldn't wait to enter the barracks. The others were not far behind, and followed up. The soldiers guarding the gate had a bitter face, and he wanted to go in and have a look too!Those bastards!

None of the soldiers that could be seen everywhere in the barracks in the past was seen at this time. The whole barracks was quiet, and "bang bang" sounds could be heard from time to time, and there were bursts of exclamations in the distance.

King Wei said: "It's in the martial arts arena. Let's go!"

Approaching the martial arts arena, the exclamations and cheers became louder, accompanied by a "bang bang bang" sound, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.

I don't know who threw a pottery bowl into the air, and the pottery bowl shattered with a bang.

"Hiss!" King Wei gasped.

A few people didn't delay any longer and squeezed in from the crowd.

I saw Wei Jiang holding a nearly three-foot-long firecracker in both hands, and naturally separated his feet, half-squinting his eyes to aim.With a light tap of his right hand, another pottery bowl was shattered with a bang. After the shot was fired, Wei Jiang leaned back. Although the movement was not big, he could clearly feel the back file of the firecracker. Great power.

Sure enough, after firing the shot, Wei Jiang put down the firecracker in his hand, shook it, and Jia Hu walked over, "I told you not to be addicted to playing, does your shoulder hurt?"

Wei Jiang said indifferently, "Compared to being forced to practice martial arts when I was a child, what is the pain?"

Jia Hu: ...

He was speechless.

"Hmph, if I hadn't stared at you practicing kung fu back then, with your small body, it would not have been enough for Brother Hu to slap you." King Wei stepped forward and slapped Wei Jiang on the head, the movement was not light, Wei Jiang staggered straight away.

Wei Jiang covered his head, looked at King Wei with an aggrieved face, and then complained, "Mother, look at my father! He bullied me again."

Before the words were finished, Princess Jiahui stretched out her hand and copied the action of King Wei. King Wei shrank his neck and lost all momentum, "Don't bully my son!"

Jia Hu: ...

Turn around and walk to the side of the two masters, "Master."

Shen Xuan looked at the appearance of the little apprentice, narrowed his eyes with a smile, and said to Yang Liu proudly, "I told you earlier, Brother Hu is the most like me."

Yang Liu glanced at him lightly, "Really? If that's the case, you can sleep in the study tonight."

Shen Xuan: ...

"No, no, I didn't mean that. I always thought that brother Hu has gathered all the advantages of you and me. He is really a good boy for us two!"

Only then did Yang Liu nodded in satisfaction, and stopped talking about letting Lord Shen sleep in the study.Shen Houye wiped the sweat from his forehead, Yizhi's aura is still so strong, he really is a little scared.He was in a cold sweat, it frightened him.
