Ming Dynasty: The poisonous imperial teacher, Zhu Yuanzhang advised me to be kind

Chapter 158: Firearms equip the Jinwu vanguard, let’s see if Hu Weiyong and Han will provoke him!
"Yes, sir!" After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Jiang Lin immediately went down to convey Zhu Yuanzhang's order.

Another reward?
But when Chu Nan heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, his face turned ugly.

Brother Zhu, isn't your Ming Dynasty poor? Why do you think about rewards every day? He was a little scared. Zhu Yuanzhang would not reward him again tomorrow. This would be like roasting him on the stove.

But Chu Nan had no other choice. After chatting with Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bowen for a while, Chu Nan went straight out of the palace.

Jinling.

Chu Nan's residence.

A carriage was approaching slowly from a distance, with twenty fully armed guards beside it. This was Chu Nan's carriage.

"The master is back!" At this moment, the entrance of Chu Nan's mansion was full of people, including Chu Nan's housekeeper, Chu Nan's servants, and Chu Nan's maids.

When they saw Chu Nan, their faces were filled with joy: "Master has really returned safely!"

"Huh!" At this moment, Chu Nan's carriage stopped and he got off the frame with joy on his face. He finally returned to this place.

This trip to the grassland really exhausted him and almost killed him.

"Sir!" Seeing Chu Nan coming down, Xihua and the other four maids immediately came forward and supported Chu Nan. Chu Nan immediately felt a fresh scent of a young girl enveloping him, making him feel refreshed.

"My lord, I'm glad you've returned safely. You've worked so hard." The four maids also smiled happily. They were really looking forward to Chu Nan's return.

Chu Nan is handsome and treats them as human beings. Who wouldn’t like such an adult?

"Congratulations, sir!" The butler and the servant beside him also laughed.

"Your Excellency has been appointed as the Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guards and the Commander of the Jinwu Vanguard. With the power of the army in your hands, who would dare to provoke you in the future? Congratulations, Your Excellency!"

"Hahahaha!" Chu Nan laughed when he heard this. He was indeed very happy because he had the military power, because if he didn't have the military power, it would be difficult for him to get out from Hu Weiyong.

Then he said to them: "You said it well, I am very happy, take it as a reward!"

"Come here, each of you go get twenty taels of silver, and take it as a reward from me!"

"Thank you, sir!" Upon hearing this, the housekeeper and servants in front of them became happy. As long as they followed Chu Nan, they would never have to worry about food and drink.

"Sir!" But after hearing Chu Nan's words, the guard beside him spoke.

"You have taken too much bribes along the way. Although you still have some money, if you continue to take bribes like this, you will be out of money."

"What?" Chu Nan was shocked when he heard this. He had indeed forgotten this.

On the grassland, for his own safety, he rewarded his soldiers with a lot of money, and those soldiers did their best to protect him and kill enemies for him.

After returning, he arranged for people to fly to Jinling and rewarded the Jinwu vanguard and the Jinyiwei who were in contact with him with a lot of money. Those people were also very grateful to him, which was why they attacked Hu Weiyong's mansion for him before.

So Chu Nan was careless all of a sudden, and it seemed that he was going to give away all the gold that Zhu Yuanzhang had given him.

"These things have nothing to do with you. I am a man of my words. Go and get the money." But Chu Nan knew that he had to keep his words so that he could have prestige.

So the reward money was not taken back.

"Sir, you don't have to do that." But after seeing Chu Nan's predicament, these housekeepers and servants simply shook their heads and refused.

"My lord, you have rewarded us a lot during this period of time. We have enough. If you have difficulties, it's okay. We just need to behave ourselves and take our wages." "No need." But Chu Nan shook his head when he heard what they said.

"This is what you deserve, just take it." Then he didn't care about their thoughts and walked straight into the mansion.

"This!" But the housekeepers, servants, and maids were deeply moved when they saw this scene.

It’s so great to follow Mr. Chu Nan. I will continue to work hard for him in the future!

Many servants had worked in other people's houses, but the masters of those houses would only reward them with a few cents during festivals, and they also wanted them to be grateful. They would also beat them from time to time and not give them food.

How can anyone be as generous and respectful as Chu Nan?
So these people at the bottom were very happy. If they didn't work for Chu Nan, who would they work for?
However, Chu Nan didn't care about these. He just walked slowly to the backyard and still heard the sound of iron colliding.

It was the sound of craftsmen making firearms. Then Chu Nan walked directly into the yard. He wanted to see how these people were making the firearms.

"Lord Chu!" The craftsmen immediately became happy when they saw Chu Nan.

"Master Chu, you're back? That's great. We have made a lot of firearms according to the drawings you gave us before!"

"These firearms are very powerful. We thought that if you didn't come back, we would take these firearms and go rescue you."

"Oh?" Chu Nan became happy when he heard this. If he really had firearms, it would mean that his power would be even stronger. After all, he, Chu Nan, now had military power.

Just ask Zhu Yuanzhang to equip his Jinwu Vanguard with firearms. Then how dare Hu Weiyong and the others act so arrogantly?
You’re crazy, I’ll blow your head off with a firearm!

"What firearms have been made?" Chu Nan asked impatiently.

"Here's this!" The craftsman immediately took out a gun.

"Wow!" Chu Nan was immediately delighted when he saw it.

There are hammers, flints, flash gates, and even springs. The bullets are also made of paper shells, which greatly increases the firing rate. It is much more powerful than the muskets currently used by the Ming army.

"Good!" Chu Nan looked satisfied.

"Have you tested it? What's the range and how powerful is it?"

"Test firing!" The craftsman was delighted when he heard it.

"This gun has a very long range, it can shoot about 200 steps! And it is very powerful, it can easily penetrate wooden boards, and even the armor the general is wearing can't stop it. It is much more powerful than a bow and arrow!"

"So powerful?" Chu Nan showed joy when he heard this.

Two hundred steps is very far, equivalent to more than three hundred meters, which is farther than the range of many bows and arrows in the Ming Dynasty.

Chu Nan was so happy that he would report to Zhu Yuanzhang and start mass production, and then equip his own soldiers first. Who would Chu Nan be afraid of this way?

"Okay, okay, then are there any other firearms?" Chu Nan asked again.

"There's more." Hearing Chu Nan's words, the craftsman took out something like a wooden stick.

"According to the drawings you gave us, Master Chu, we also built this thing."

"Hand grenade!" Chu Nan was also shocked when he saw it. The lower body was a wooden stick, the upper body was wrapped in iron sheet, and it also had a fuse. If this wasn't a hand grenade, what else could it be?
He was so shocked: "You guys are really amazing. You even made a grenade?"
