Fast Travel: Endangered Pup Rescue Project

Chapter 556 The Master’s Wife in the Martial Arts World

In Linghe Valley, the firearms made by Song Xia finally achieved preliminary results.

She raised her eyebrows at Shangguan Jin: "Let's go and see together?"

Shangguan Jin was extremely surprised: "So fast?"

"I also have to thank you for expediting the shipment of fine iron."

The two rode out of the city and saw the current situation of Linghe City along the way. Shangguan Jin couldn't help but sigh: "Even Yangzhou City is nothing more than this."

In the past, Linghe City was not big. It relied on Linghe Valley to gain some fame. How could it be compared with Yangzhou City, which had been prosperous for hundreds of years? But now, Linghe City has frequent trade. In such a chaotic era, the people in the city No one was naked, everyone had smiles on their faces, and their eyes were full of hope.

Song Xia was also proud of this: "However, just one Linghe City is not enough."

"Song Xia, I am more and more convinced of you now. Sooner or later, there will be such a day."

Outside the city, there were still many refugees transporting stone and wood to build houses and city walls. Compared with the residents in the city, they were thinner, but all of them were very energetic, and some of them were bold. They even said hello to Song Xia and the others.

"When this city wall is built, the area of ​​Linghe City will more than double, accommodating more people."

"Ouyang Zhen will definitely discover the existence of the city wall when he returns from the martial arts conference. By then, the conflict between you and him will have to be put in front of you!"

"Yeah." When Song Xia mentioned this person, her expression became a little indifferent, "It's time to break up."

"Are you sure you've beaten him?"

Song Xia replied casually: "There is half a chance of winning!"

Shangguan Jin knew her, and he was not absolutely sure that she would never say this. The chance of winning was at least 70 to 80, so he felt better.

"Song Xia, thank you for going to Yangzhou City to find me." He felt that he would witness the birth of a miracle, especially if he personally participated in this miracle, which would make him twice as happy.

"Aren't you afraid that I will use up your Wuhualou's money and resources and kick you away in the future?"

"I'm not afraid." Shangguan Jin said frankly, "Wuhua Building's business is so big, I have already prepared to destroy Wuhua Building. Now I can use up Wuhua Building's money and resources to open up a new prosperous era. This is Wuhua Building's glory."

Song Xia looked at him seriously: "The wealth of a country cannot be in the hands of businessmen, but I can assure you that the Shangguan family will not collapse, and the talents of Wuhualou will also exist in other identities."

Hearing what she said, Shangguan Jin was completely relieved. This guarantee was enough.

After riding for some distance outside the mountains, we came to a village. It was obvious that most of the houses were newly built based on the original ones. Everyone here was busy, even disgraced, but everyone was very excited. , doesn’t seem to feel tired at all.

"Grain Master, Shangguan Lou Master, you are here."

"Well, you sent a message saying that firearms have been made, so we'll come and take a look."

"Valley Master, we have lived up to expectations and have made the firearm you need. It weighs one thousand four hundred kilograms, has four kilograms of gunpowder, and has a range of three kilometers."

Hearing this, Shangguan Jin's brows jumped sharply. As far as he knew, the range of the imperial court's firearms was only two kilometers, and the imperial court's firearms weighed more than two thousand kilograms. The weight of several hundred kilograms, the transportation in the war was Fatal and can determine victory or defeat.

"How about safety? No matter how powerful it is, I need to ensure the safety of the brothers who use the artillery."

"We have tested it 20 times so far, and the barrel exploded once. I estimate that as long as we keep the burst within five shots, we can greatly reduce the risk of barrel explosion."

Shangguan Jin took a breath again. Was this terrible data really produced by Song Xia in a short period of time? Where did she get the drawings and skills?
However, Song Xia frowned dissatisfied: "The probability is still too high. I will go and see later to see if any brothers were injured when the chamber exploded?" The steward sighed and lowered his eyebrows: "Two brothers were affected, but neither of them survived. Worry, but one of them has a broken arm.”

Song Xia was silent for a moment before saying: "Has the compensation that should be paid been paid in place? We cannot let the brothers feel cold."

"Once it's in place, Cao Sheng keeps saying it's too much. If it weren't for the pressure from his subordinates, he would have wanted to return to his post as soon as possible."

"Go tell him when you have time. Just say it was the Valley Master who told him to take good care of himself. Linghe City will always need him."

"Yes, Valley Master."

Following the steward's guidance, they came to an empty hillside, where a firearm was riding. The firearm was glowing with cold light. Shangguan Jinguang was imagining it, as if to see how much contribution this firearm could make in the future.

Song Xia sighed quietly in her heart. Today's iron-making skills are still a bit lacking, otherwise she can make them make more powerful firearms, but this is enough for use in this era, that is, it is safe. It can be improved some more.

After Shangguan Jin saw the real thing, he stroked it like a pervert and kept muttering words like "beautiful", "mighty" and "domineering".

After admiring it inside and out, he looked at Song Xia with burning eyes: "Can you try it now?"

The steward also wanted to show Song Xia, and his expression was very excited.

Song Xia nodded: "Then let's try it."

Shangguan Jin looked at her anxiously: "Can I light the fire?"

"As long as you are not afraid of danger."

Soon the cannonballs were delivered and loaded by the steward himself. Shangguan Jin held the torch, his hands even shaking a little.

"This is..." The line of fire was ignited, and the direction of the gun barrel was facing the cliff three kilometers away. Then with a "coax" sound, the shell exploded, and the rocks on the cliff fell one after another.

Shangguan Jin was stunned for a while and then said ecstatically: "It's so powerful, it will definitely crush the imperial court's firearms."

Song Xia also rarely smiled: "It's really good."

Shangguan Jin looked at her with burning eyes: "If you want to make batches, the refined iron I shipped before is not enough. How much is needed for the second stage, I will have people prepare it as soon as possible."

"If we have good luck this time, the movements in Wuhua Tower will attract the attention of the imperial court and the cult."

Shangguan Jin frowned. This was indeed a big trouble, but his attitude was still firm: "Even if it attracts their attention, there is nothing we can do. We have to make firearms. I will try my best to hide it from others."

Song Xia sighed: "Then I'll trouble you. So far, you have been bearing the pressure."

"Who gave you this ability, Song Xia, don't make me wait too long."

"No, as long as the planting area of ​​sweet potatoes and corn and wheat can be expanded and the output can be increased, the uprising is only a matter of time, and..."

"And what?"

"You have ignored the cowardice of the imperial court. After all, the world is not dominated by those treacherous ministers, so they will not confront us head-on in the short term. Otherwise, the power of the martial arts gangs will not expand in recent years. It depends on those treacherous ministers and The extent of the cult’s collusion.”

Shangguan Jin was slightly relieved: "What you said makes sense."
