Chapter 13
In a flash, it's time for the new year again.
Unlike other families who celebrated the new year in high spirits, the sun family was immersed in grief.
Sun Yuanwai left ahead of time before the baby was born.
However, he walked peacefully, because at the end of the year, he heard that the farm tools designed by Wang Zhong had finally opened the market. After they were given to those farmers for use, they were widely praised, so he quickly bought all the farm tools of the sun family.
The news even spread to neighboring counties and other provinces, and many businesses came to buy this kind of agricultural tools.
The difficulty of the sun family's funds was suddenly relieved, which made sun Yuanwai very happy.
When he was dying, he personally called Wang Zhong to the bedside and told him to take good care of sun XiuXiu. After that, his eyes kept tilting, his head tilted, and his feet kicked, and he left.
At the cloth shop, sun Jitian escorted the goods himself. Although the horse thief was still targeting them, they also found that the horse thief seemed to know their whereabouts, targeting them again and again.
But who makes sun Jitian powerful.
This guy can fight more than a dozen with a machete. If he has help, he can deal with more with his kung fu. Therefore, he takes the motorcade away from the territory of the horse thief without danger every time.
The next summer, Wang Chong's child was finally born. Wang Chong's paralyzed face finally smiled. He found that being a father was still very good.
Things seem to be moving in a good direction. Wang Zhong believes that if he continues like this, he can make the sun family develop better and better.
But soon after the baby was born, one night, sun Jitian rushed into the sun family with his broken arm.
"The cloth, all the cloth were robbed, and the people in the team were all dead..."
With these words, Sun Ji's head tilted and he completely fainted.
Wang Chong, who was coaxing the child to sleep with sunxiuxiu, got the news and rushed out immediately.
"Call the doctor quickly, quickly!"
Fortunately, sun Jitian was in good health since childhood, so after breaking an arm, he carried it down. After a week of unconsciousness, sun Jitian finally woke up.
"Doctor, how is he?" Wang Zhong looked at Sun Jitian who had woken up and asked.
"It's OK for the time being. I'll recuperate more in the future, but I can't do anything about this broken arm." The doctor sighed and left here.
"Hahaha..." Sun Jitian laughed a few times, "Er Ping, I'm fine. I'm not just an arm. After I'm cured, I'm a hero again."
"Brother, don't say a few words." Sun XiuXiu hugged the child and her eyes were red.
Lin Mei wiped sun Jitian's face with a towel and cried, "it's OK, it's OK, it's OK, just in the future, Wuwuwuwu..."
Due to the limited technology of the ancients, it is difficult for the disabled to live. No wonder Lin's eyebrows are so sad.
"Tell me what happened." Wang Chong nodded to sun Jitian.
"This time we came back with cloth from other provinces, which was the same way as before, but this time there were three masters, all of whom were covered, and I could only manage."
"Is it ma Dahu's mountain bandits?" Wang Zhong asked.
"Ma Dahu is also there, but he is not my opponent at all. This time, I doubt we know the three masters, so they all cover their faces."
"Three brothers of the Zhao family!" Sun XiuXiu gritted her teeth!
There are three brothers in the Zhao family. The eldest is Zhao Shouzheng, the second is Zhao Shouyi, and the third is Zhao Shouqiang. All of them are martial artists.
However, these three people are not as good as sun Jitian in terms of force. If they add up, it is not necessarily.
"Zhao Shouyi and Zhao Shouqiang studied martial arts outside a few years ago. Have they come back?" Sun XiuXiu said.
"Now that they are injured, Ji Tian will hide for a period of time." Wang Zhong thought for a moment and said, "it doesn't matter, but I have a way to deal with them."
In the following days, the sun family suspended the import of cloth and operated only in industries where they had advantages.
Wang Zhong has been at home these days. No one knows what he is doing, but boxes of firecrackers have been moved into the house.
Blacksmith Huang, a former villager, also sent Wang Chong's iron pipes, with a total of ten. In addition, Wang Chong asked other blacksmiths to make iron pipes of different lengths, all of which were moved home by him.
No one knew what he was stirring up, only some servants of the sun family heard 'Bang Bang' from the yard from time to time.
The sound is so loud that it startles people every time.
It is rumored that the son-in-law of the sun family, who became redundant, began to do nothing but play with firecrackers and let his wife take care of everything.
Half a year later, sun Jitian's injury finally stabilized and he could get out of bed.
And Wang Zhong finally designed something he was satisfied with, a suifa gun!
Yes, these days, he has been designing a killing weapon, Flint gun, and some people call it musket.
He thought about this idea that year after the disaster. After the disaster, the people were in dire straits, thieves rose, murders and robberies occurred in many places, and refugee riots occurred in distant places. Some local warlords took advantage of the chaos to become kings, and the corrupt and incompetent imperial court simply had no time to control it.
In this life, his body is too weak. In order to protect himself, Wang thought of a gun again. With a gun, he can easily deal with horse thieves like Ma Dahu without any effort.
So he asked blacksmith Huang to build the main body of the gun, the iron pipe.
Because he also participated in the design of muskets in the Dragon Dynasty, he knows how to do this thing.
After the iron pipe was made, because there was no modern industry, he could only choose the flint gun with warhead and gunpowder separately. Although it was troublesome, as long as it was skillfully operated, it was actually very useful.
Wang Chong remembers that in the 18th century, the main weapon used by Western expeditions was a flint gun. First, fill the tube with gunpowder, with small iron beads in his mouth. Fill the tube with gunpowder, and then pull the trigger.
The striker struck the flint, and the spark ignited the gunpowder, sending out small iron beads one by one.
Therefore, the flint gun can also be regarded as a shotgun, because the bullets fired are scattered.
This is much easier to use than the fire gun barrel in ancient China. The reason why the fire gun was not fully developed in ancient China is that the aiming rate is too low, but if the bullet is scattered, it will completely solve the problem of poor aiming.
Apart from the trouble of filling, the disadvantage of suifa gun is its short distance, which is only effective with a range of 30 to 40 meters, but this is enough for Wang Chong.
In fact, it is not so easy to make these flint guns. In terms of materials, gunpowder, flint and barrel, although there are all these, it is more difficult to make small objects such as firing pins.
Therefore, Wang Zhong asked the craftsmen to design and polish for a long time before he could produce dozens of them.
During this period of time, his yard was also transformed into an iron making place.
However, the effect is also gratifying. He has fully assembled 58 flint guns, ten of which are short barrel flint guns, and the rest are flint guns like rifles.
"Very good. The next step is to train them how to use it." Wang Zhong went to sun Jitian at the first time to discuss his plan to enter the cloth in person.
