Chapter 1535 Becoming an Arms Dealer of Song
Chu Chen smiled after hearing this: "That's right, what I did just now was a small test, suitable for close-quarters combat."
"The next weapon is the real killer."
As Chu Chen spoke, he picked up his submachine gun and addressed Gou Shengzi and the other eight men.
"Each person has two magazines. There are probably only a hundred or so prey in here, the biggest being that tiger."
"So, let's all work together and finish this within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."
After saying that, Chu Chen strode into the hunting circle.
After hearing this, the other eight people also picked up their submachine guns.
Then everyone stood in a place, forming a small fan shape around the hunting circle.
"Fire."
At Chu Chen's command, a series of loud rattling sounds immediately filled the entire hunting grounds.
The loud noise lasted for less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, but after it ended, everyone looked towards the hunting area.
The next moment, everyone was stunned. There was no living creature left in the hunting enclosure.
Even the giant tiger had more than ten bloody holes punched into its body and lay on the ground, already lifeless.
"Your Majesty, congratulations! Congratulations! May Heaven bless our Song Kingdom!"
"Your Majesty, with this item, the soldiers of my Song Kingdom will be invincible, sweeping away all the surrounding countries and truly becoming the overlord of this world..."
For a moment, Tang Yun and his soldiers looked at Dong Shilan with delight.
They offered words of congratulations, but the joy on their faces came from the bottom of their hearts.
Dong Shilan's mouth was agape, and she was speechless for a moment. She looked at Chu Chen with love in her eyes.
"My dear brother, you are truly a celestial being descended to earth."
"Hehe, you flatter me, sister. It's just a clever trick. I don't know if it's worthy of your attention."
"Little brother, don't be modest. I've got you all under my thumb for life. You can't escape my grasp."
At this moment, Dong Shilan was extremely excited. She completely disregarded the other people around her and kept calling Chu Chen "little brother" with her eyes full of love.
"Tell me, what do you want in order to give these to my sister?"
"It's simple, just make a promise."
"A promise?" Dong Shilan looked at Chu Chen in confusion.
"That's right, a promise, a promise to end the world of war."
There will be no more wars in the world? Everyone looked at Chu Chen in disbelief after hearing this.
The very existence of such a powerful weapon is meant for war, isn't it? If it's meant for war, how can we expect the world to be free from war?
However, only Dong Shilan trembled when she heard those words.
Others might not understand, but she did. Chu Chen's talk of a world free from war meant that she should use such a powerful weapon to rule the entire world.
At that time, the world will be one family, so what is there to talk about in terms of war?
It seems I underestimated Chu Chen; this man has grand ideals and ambitions.
At that moment, Chu Chen seemed to be shining with golden light, which made Dong Shilan immediately walk up to him and bow: "Sir, you are so righteous."
Chu Chen grinned: "Sister, you are the emperor, the ruler of the world. I cannot accept such a grand gesture."
What a joke! You think I'd be your slave, making you build guns and cannons just because you bow? I'm not stupid.
Dong Shilan laughed after hearing this: "That's right, you're the younger brother and I'm the older sister, why should I bow to you?"
"Let's go back to the palace. Today I want to have a good, in-depth discussion with the Chu State Preceptor."
At her command, the group quickly returned to the Imperial Study.
Dong Shilan dismissed everyone, then plopped down on Chu Chen's lap: "Little brat, name your price."
Seeing this, Chu Chen smiled inwardly, thinking that they had finally gotten to the point.
But at this moment, as if no one else is around, let's not talk about serious matters; we can discuss that later...▼Expand
Half an hour later, Dong Shilan said happily, "You mean, a pistol like this only costs five taels of silver?"
"And these bullets, five hundred taels of silver?"
Chu Chen nodded and smiled: "Sister, if I, Chu Chen, came here to make money, I wouldn't sell these things to anyone for this price, but you are my good sister, so I'll just consider it helping out."
"But you must keep your promise to me, which is to become the overlord of the world and free the people from the suffering of war."
Dong Shilan nodded seriously in response: "Don't worry, I have no privacy in front of you, sister."
"Alright, in that case, the submachine gun will cost ten taels of silver, and the bullets will be the same as those for the pistol."
"But has your sister considered something else?"
"what's up?"
"My weapons are powerful, but they are designed for infantry. But the Xiongnu's cavalry is exceptionally formidable."
Dong Shilan frowned deeply after hearing this.
Indeed, Chu Chen's weapons were powerful, but they were useless against fast-moving and strong cavalry.
However, seeing Chu Chen's confident expression, she immediately laughed and scolded, "You little rascal, you're keeping your sister in suspense. Tell me, what other good stuff do you have?"
"To be honest, there is one, but it's still under development. It's a weapon specifically designed to deal with cavalry, and that's the machine gun."
"machine gun?"
"That's right. This thing is incredibly powerful and has extremely strong penetrating power. Even a warhorse probably couldn't withstand a single shot from it."
"However, I currently lack sufficient manpower and resources. Therefore, in order to more easily manufacture powerful weapons, I need to expand the scale of my arsenal in Seoul."
Dong Shilan nodded in agreement without even thinking.
Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Chu Chen immediately put on his clothes and prepared to leave.
That's ridiculous. Making weapons on your own is tantamount to rebellion. Smelting iron and making weapons are two completely different things.
Therefore, Chu Chen's purpose this time was twofold: first, to test whether Dong Shilan intended to take action against him; and second, to build an arms factory.
Otherwise, even if Tie Tuo worked himself to death, he would still not be able to satisfy his own and the Song state's demands.
Therefore, assembly line production is imperative.
Moreover, when Chu Chen was talking to Dong Shilan just now, he had no idea that Dong Shilan intended to kill him.
Otherwise, even in the midst of their own pleasure, they might lose their heads.
Now that the Mei family has been destroyed, Dong Shilan has no doubts. The arsenal has already been approved, so what is she still doing here?
I've been away from Seoul for so long, I wonder if Yiping back home is thinking of me.
It should be noted that while Dong Shilan is wonderful, Yiping has her own unique charm.
Seeing Chu Chen pull up his pants and leave, Dong Shilan rushed forward and grabbed him, saying, "You little brat, you're leaving like this? Your sister hasn't had enough fun yet. Let's go tomorrow."
A day and a night later, Chu Chen led Gou Shengzi and the others out of the palace and immediately headed towards Hancheng.
"Brother Chen, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
"You don't know anything. If you don't leave now, your brother Chen will die in this capital city."
