Chapter 679 Different from You

With the arrival of the large group, Frederick has another hit product.

The trolleys used to transport materials on the ship are assembled from steel pipes. They take up little space after being disassembled and can be assembled quickly. They can easily pull 200 kilograms of cargo on solid roads, and the two wide wheels can adapt to less favorable roads.

There are also small trolleys that look like suitcases, which are more flexible and convenient.

A large cart cost 5 grams of gold, and a small cart cost 2 grams. Fofana ordered of each without blinking an eye. The village chief who came to buy salt in the past two days also placed orders for to .

They mainly rely on hunting for meat and picking fruits. The weather in the south is hot and there are many mosquitoes and flies. If the prey is not transported back in time, it will easily rot. Sometimes they have to give up transporting fruits in order to carry the prey.

If there is such a small car, it means more prey and fruits can be transported back to the village, and there will be more food.

Gold is precious, but not as important as having a full stomach.

Seeing that more and more people were coming, Frederick took out the goods that were hidden in the bottom of the box.

"Oh!"

After the gunshot, a bloody hole appeared on the black rhino's body, and blood gushed out like a faucet, quickly attracting flying insects, and a number of blood-sucking slimes as big as eggs jumped onto the ground.

Fofana and others didn't know how many times they broke out in cold sweats. They had previously privately laughed at Frederick's soldiers for using a steel pipe as a weapon and not knowing how to sharpen it. Now they realized how powerful this weapon was.

The black iron rhino is large in size and very strong, and most importantly, its skin is extremely tough and can be used to make leather armor and shields. It can only be hunted by brave warriors.

Now, with just an iron pipe and an iron ball wrapped in animal skin, you can kill the black rhino from ten steps away by just moving your fingers.

What Frederick sells here is a large-caliber single-barrel muzzle-loading shotgun with a caliber of 20㎜. The short barrel is suitable for use in the forest. The bullet is loaded at the muzzle, so the structure is simple and not easy to break. There is no rifling, and homemade metal projectiles or even stone balls can be used. You only need to wrap them with greased animal skins, cloth or even leaves to reduce the wear on the barrel. If necessary, you can directly use stones or sticks to shoot. The effective range is 50 meters.

Frederick tried to offer 100 grams of gold per gun, along with fifty bullets, cleaning tools and a gun bag.

Fofana gritted his teeth and bought it.

This weapon can be used to kill black iron rhinos. It can also be used to kill people. If others have it, I must have it too. If I don't have it, then I'm doomed.

As for how many guns Fofana and others finally bought, Frederick didn't know. The professionals from the Dawn Chamber of Commerce were responsible for the next work. Early in the morning of the second day after the hunting rifle demonstration, the Flying Tulip and the Flying Cornflower set sail.

Frederick was drinking tea on the top of the island and called Kamara.

Kamala brought a message: "Sir, Xisai has not returned to the village until yesterday."

Frederick took a sip of his tea and said, "It seems he is dead."

The father and son went to the woods to look for arrows, and in the end only Mendy came back. It was obvious what had happened.

Frederick just felt it was a bit of a pity. Cisse would have been a good agent if trained, but he ended up dying because of the father and son falling out over beauty.

He looked at Kamala deeply, and had a guess in his mind that this person might be doing something behind the scenes, with the purpose of preventing the emergence of a second agent of the Principality of Wessen here.

Kamala's eyes immediately turned to the teapot on the table. She picked up the teapot and poured tea into the half-empty cup in front of Frederick.

It wasn't that he was mentally weak, but Frederick's reputation was too great, and he had no idea that he could hide it, so he seemed guilty.

Frederick took a sip of tea from the cup, put it down and looked at the land that was getting farther and farther away. After a long while, he said, "For things in the south, I only look at the results, not the process."

“How to maximize benefits is a science.”

Kamala nodded in agreement.

Frederick was reminding him that there were many learned people in the Duchy of Wessen, and he was not irreplaceable. Even if he offered his daughter as a lover, it would be useless. Everyone knew that Frederick separated the things in and out of bed.

Frederick originally had things to arrange for the setting up of a trading post, but now he thought about leaving him alone for a while, as he had the initiative anyway.

But people can't be left alone. Kamala is a middle-aged man who has achieved some success in his career and has his own ideas. Blindly suppressing him will only force him to rebel, so we have to find something for him to do.

A revolver was placed on the table, its silver-white body inlaid with gold patterns.

Frederick said: "I have asked Fofana, and the only solution for you when you return home is to duel with your uncle."

"After we get to the Horseshoe Islands, you will take the Flying Bluebonnet and leave first. Hurry up and take care of things at home. I will start building the largest base in the south as soon as I get there."

He didn't just want Kamala to go home for revenge, but to take over the place completely and establish a stronghold as soon as the fleet arrived.

Kamala agreed immediately and was excited at the same time. He finally had the opportunity to return home in glory and show his skills. It seemed that what happened just now did not leave any grudges for Grand Duke Wesson.

As the sun rises, the weather gets hotter. No one will stay on the deck unless it is necessary. Everyone goes to the cabin to enjoy the air conditioning.

The humidity in the air was also increasing, condensation water began to be forced out, and the sound of rapidly flowing water could be heard in the corridor.

Susan sat at the desk, carefully recording and organizing the medical records of Zhenzhen's treatment over the past few days.

Judging from this case, the treatment was successful, but the side effects were too great and the medication had to be adjusted.

Frederick didn't disturb her. He picked up a novel from the bookshelf and lay down on the bed. He read the book and thought about other things.

Amy has been following Susan these days. Now Susan is busy and Amy has nothing to do. Seeing Frederick reading a book, she took a fan and came over to help fan him.

Frederick suddenly pulled her over, holding the book in one hand and stroking it gently with the other.

Amy was a little nervous. Frederick had never done such a thing during the day in these days. He suddenly did this today. She didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.

After a long time, she suddenly noticed that Frederick's hand stopped.

Frederick said, "Go to the kitchen and see if lunch is ready. If it is, bring it over for me and Susan."

After Amy left, Susan came over and sat on the bed, leaned over and gently pinched Frederick's face and said, "I thought you were going to start."

Frederick brought Susan to him, kissed her, shook his head and whispered, "She will never be as good as you."

Susan understood that Frederick had just considered bringing Amy into the core of power, but for some reason, he gave up in the end.

Susan was different from other girls. She was sent to Frederick as a bond of interest and an investment, and was privately taught court intrigues by her family members since she was a child.

According to the plan, all she had to do every day was to curry favor with Maria, compete for Frederick's favor, step on Frederick's other lovers, and then recommend certain family members to hold important positions under Frederick at certain times.

But the situation is different here with Frederick. Everyone has his own career and is busy all the time, so these political schemes are of no use.

But this did not mean that Susan had forgotten all these things, and she soon understood the meaning behind Frederick's words.

She was wondering again why Frederick said all this to her. Was there any other meaning behind it?

Before Susan could figure out what was going on, Frederick stripped her naked.
