Chapter 1311 Rifle Blueprint

"..."

Peter got straight to the point right away and brought up the subject of 'rifle'.

Zhou Xu really couldn't say that he was not mentally prepared for this matter.

After all, he had a rough idea of ​​Peter's situation, and he had very few chips at hand. Judging from the existing resources, he was almost completely defeated by Fisher.

Under this premise, from a development perspective, the things he might be able to show off are "firearms".

I have to say, this is really something Zhou Xu is very interested in at this stage.

From the perspective of military development, if the Great Zhou continues to develop according to the thinking of modern people, then the next step will be to enter the era of hot weapons.

In fact, thanks to the rough drawings Qin Fen provided before, their Great Zhou's firearms research and development project team had already been established a long time ago, but there were only a few people, and the main focus was on research first. Qin Fen served as the team leader and consultant of the project team.

After all, from an experience point of view, Qin Fen should be the only person in their Great Zhou at this stage who has actually come into contact with firearms and has also played with disassembling and assembling guns.

However, according to Qin Fen himself, he was not very interested in firearms. He went to the shooting club purely for the sake of novelty. After all, this kind of thing was not available in China.

But after playing it a few times and the novelty wore off, he basically lost interest in it. His true love was still the steam engine.

Therefore, he is not an expert in firearms, so Zhou Xu should not have too high expectations.

Now that Peter took the initiative to mention the "rifle", Zhou Xu was undoubtedly still somewhat interested.

I just don't know whether the other party has sufficient understanding of this area. Don't tell him the concept of firearms at that time, it will be useless.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xu simply made a partial showdown.

"Of course I'm interested, but I don't know how much you know about 'rifles'."

Peter's face lit up with joy when he got this answer, and he subconsciously wanted to brag about it.

As a result, he had just opened his mouth and hadn't uttered a single word when his brain suddenly reacted. He was visibly stunned and even stuttered when he spoke.

"Your Majesty Zhou, His Majesty, do you know about rifles?"

"Of course I know. After all, I am also the Chosen One."

Zhou Xu looked at Peter calmly.

Feeling that calm gaze and thinking about his previous remarks, Peter's whole face suddenly turned red.

Good man, isn't this embarrassing? If the other party is also a chosen one, then wouldn't my earlier conversation with him make me look like a fool? Fortunately, Peter is not too thin-skinned now. He quickly suppressed the embarrassment in his heart and looked at Zhou Xu again.

On the other hand, Zhou Xu still looked calm at this moment.

His identity as the Chosen One of God was not even a secret within the Great Zhou. Even Yalvette knew about it. The only people who didn't know this were probably the people in the Smith Republic and the Saint Laurent Empire at this stage.

Zhou Xu did not deliberately conceal it, but he was not interested in telling everyone that he was the chosen one of God.

After all, for him now, the identity of "Emperor Zhou" is more useful than the three words "Chosen One of God".

At this moment, the reason why he took the initiative to make it clear was that he wanted to tell Peter that he also had some knowledge about firearms. If you just want to make up a few words to fool me, then I advise you to give up this idea, otherwise you may not get any good results.

Zhou Xu didn't know whether Peter understood or not. Anyway, after seeing him silent for a few seconds, he directly gave his chips...

“I can draw every component of the M1891, right down to the exact dimensions of the bullet.”

Zhou Xu didn't know much about firearms. At best, he could distinguish the general types, such as revolvers, pistols, rifles, etc.

Peter opened his mouth and said M1891. Zhou Xu could only guess what kind of gun it was, but he had no idea what it was.

But on the surface, he was still calm, as if it was no big deal.

This made Peter feel uneasy.

"So you have already drawn the blueprint now. If it is just a rough blueprint, it will be useless to us."

Zhou Xu was telling him that he could do the rough drawings by himself. Peter, who heard this, quickly said...

"Before coming to this world, I was a hunter, and my favorite is the M1891. Although it is an old gun, it is often more sturdy and reliable than those newer firearms. I perform meticulous maintenance on it every few days, and I know every component of it very well."

Having said that, Peter nodded his head confidently.

“It’s in my head now and I can draw it anytime I want.”

Although Zhou Xu still didn't know what the M1891 was, he could understand why Peter liked old guns.

In essence, to put it bluntly, this means that I like old things.

Modern development is definitely becoming more and more intelligent, and things are becoming more and more sophisticated.

However, sophisticated and highly intelligent items are often prone to malfunction, and once a malfunction occurs, they will no longer be able to function normally.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

On the other hand, some old objects are simple in structure, sturdy and durable, and are more reliable.

From this point of view, Zhou Xu himself is actually a person who likes old things.

However, based on Peter's words alone, it was obviously impossible for him to continue chatting with the other party.

"Then I think you should draw the blueprint first, and then come and talk to me about what to do next."

“I can draw right now!”

"sure."

Zhou Xu did not stop him and directly took a pen and paper from his desk and handed it to the other party.

"This is a pencil. You should be able to use it, right?"

Peter must have had some concerns when he took the pen and paper, but at the same time he knew that it was not easy to seize this opportunity.

From the perspective of strength, although the Saint Laurent Empire is stronger, considering the project of cooperative firearms research and development, the Great Zhou, which is also a chosen one of God and has already developed gunpowder, is undoubtedly his best choice.

Thinking of this, Peter also made up his mind and planned to take a gamble on Zhou Xu! "Wait a moment, it will be done soon."

With this thought in mind, Peter just started painting.

This pencil was indeed very easy to use for him, and in a short while, the drawing was finished.

"It will take quite some time to draw all of them. The M1891 bolt is made up of seven parts. These are three of them. I have also marked the precise data on the sides. This should be enough to prove my understanding of it."

Zhou Xu took the drawing and took a look at it. He had to admit that the other party's drawing was indeed quite realistic.

After looking at it a few more times, Zhou Xu put the drawing on the table.

"Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"
