"Your Majesty, this is the musket factory." Bi Maokang said with a bit of pride in his tone.
Indeed, he should be proud.
Zhu Youxiao nodded and led the way inside.
Bi Maokang explained: "The ones in the front produce pistols, and the ones in the back produce rifles."
"Do you have a finished product? Bring it here for us to see." Zhu Youxiao said directly.
"Your Majesty, yes." After saying that, Bi Maokang winked at the people around him.
They had actually already made preparations long ago, and everything was ready. When the emperor arrived, they would show it to him immediately.
Soon, someone came up holding a box.
After Bi Maokang took it, he opened the box in front of Zhu Youxiao.
Inside the box lay a pistol, its yellow frame looking quite dignified.
Zhu Youxiao reached out and picked up the gun. It felt very heavy in his hand. It was a revolver.
At this time, the production process and difficulty of revolvers were much lower and they were very useful.
"Do you have bullets?" Zhu Youxiao looked at Bi Maokang and asked directly.
"Your Majesty, yes." Bi Maokang agreed and waved to another person in the distance.
The man ran over holding a box.
The box contains bullets.
All dangers should be avoided in front of the emperor. When making the arrangements, Bi Maokang put bullets and guns on the two men respectively, and at the same time arranged people to watch the two men so that they would not gather together.
To put it bluntly, no one except the emperor can put the bullets and the gun together.
Although everyone here is trustworthy, who knows if someone might have lost their mind?
The emperor would never appear on any edge of danger.
Zhu Youxiao looked at Bi Maokang with appreciation and nodded with satisfaction.
In fact, these things had been arranged long ago, and Zhu Youxiao's personal guards had already checked them. Otherwise, they would not have allowed people to bring the things to Zhu Youxiao like this. Moreover, Zhu Youxiao's personal guards were also watching behind the two men.
After opening the box, Zhu Youxiao saw yellow bullets lying inside.
After seeing these things, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but reach out to touch them.
Over the past eight years, he has invested tens of millions of silver here.
In this era, this is a huge investment, and now we are finally seeing the results.
With his own guidance and the efforts of Bi Maokang's team, the bullet was finally produced.
Zhu Youxiao reached out and picked up the bullets, loaded them one by one into the revolver's cylinder, and then gently buckled it.
Zhu Youxiao said to everyone, "Stand behind me, I want to test the gun."
Everyone quickly hid behind Zhu Youxiao.
Some people also wanted to step forward to persuade him, after all, this thing was too dangerous, and it would not be good to hurt themselves or His Majesty.
At the same time, someone turned to look at Bi Maokang, not only with a questioning look, but also with a threatening look.
The meaning is very simple, is this thing of yours safe?
Bi Maokang had a bitter look on his face, and he didn't want the emperor to experiment.
Although this gun and these bullets have been checked repeatedly, no one can guarantee 100% success.
If anything goes wrong and His Majesty is hurt, everyone will be doomed.
Zhu Youxiao ignored all this, turned the pistol in his hand twice, and aimed forward.
Of course, there was definitely no target or anything like that, and Zhu Youxiao didn't intend to hit anything, he just wanted to fire a shot.
He pulled the trigger sharply.
With a "bang", smoke rose from the muzzle and a recoil force instantly spread to Zhu Youxiao's arm.
Although he wasn't knocked back several steps, his body still shook, and the hand holding the gun trembled, causing the bullet to fly diagonally upwards.
Forget about the accuracy of this kind of shooting; if you don't hit your teammates, it's already a good performance. Hitting your teammates is not impossible.
Although his arms were numb from the shock, Zhu Youxiao was still very happy.
Good stuff.
Zhu Youxiao casually handed the gun to the guard behind him and said, "Let's go and take a look at the spears you made."
The world's first breech-loading rifle that fires fixed metal bullets is really a good thing.
Compared to the Minié bullet, this thing is a groundbreaking invention.
