Once the paper shell bullets are replaced with metal bullets, the rate of fire will be greatly improved. Currently, it is 200 rounds per minute, but if it is replaced with metal bullets, it can reach 1200 rounds per minute. What does this mean?
Even with a hand-cranked gun, it has such a high rate of fire, making it a powerful weapon on the battlefield. With this thing, even without a breech-loading gun, it is still powerful enough.
However, judging from the current situation, this will take some time to solve. So Zhu Youxiao didn't plan to stay here any longer, so he let them continue to work on it. His current task was to get money.
If he didn't get money, he wouldn't be able to equip himself with these equipment. Zhu Youxiao would definitely feel bad if he didn't equip himself with such good equipment.
It would be a waste if we didn't build a modern army when we already had the capability to do so. This kind of thing couldn't happen to us.
After rewarding all the craftsmen, Zhu Youxiao left the Academy of Craftsmen and returned directly to the palace.
When Zhu Youxiao returned to the palace, a little maid was staggering and having fun.
A circle of palace maids and eunuchs surrounded her, shouting and yelling, fearing that the little girl would accidentally fall to the ground.
When Zhu Youxiao saw this scene, he shook his head helplessly.
He has done nothing in the past few years and has been staying in the palace, which has led to a high output in the palace.
In addition to giving birth to a son for the first time, Empress Zhang gave birth to a daughter as her second child.
In addition, Concubine Tian also gave birth to a son, and Concubine Yuan gave birth to a daughter.
The one in front of him is Zhu Youxiao's eldest daughter, born to Concubine Yuan. She is only slightly younger than the eldest prince and is not a peaceful person in her daily life.
Ever since she learned to walk, no one can hold her and she has to run on her two short legs.
When she saw a group of palace maids and eunuchs running with her, she laughed happily.
Zhu Youxiao walked over and held the little girl in his arms. He rubbed her face, rubbed it against hers, and kissed her before saying, "Why are you running around again?"
The little girl seemed a little impatient with Zhu Youxiao's tormenting. She rubbed Zhu Youxiao hard and then giggled.
At this time, Concubine Yuan also came up from behind. When she saw Zhu Youxiao, she bowed and said, "I pay my respects to Your Majesty."
Compared to when she first entered the palace, Concubine Yuan has grown a lot. Not only does she look plumper, but she also exudes a sense of maturity and stability.
After taking a look at the little girl in Zhu Youxiao's arms, Concubine Yuan also smiled.
Zhu Youxiao's harem was relatively harmonious, after all, there were not many women in it.
Empress Zhang's authority was unshakable. Not only was she the empress, she also gave birth to the emperor's eldest son and was valued by His Majesty. This went without saying.
Apart from Empress Zhang, there was only one Concubine Tian and one Concubine Yuan, and no one else.
It was unlikely that the three of them would fight, so the situation was generally peaceful. Although there were some minor frictions during the day, they were not a big deal. Therefore, Zhu Youxiao lived a good life in the harem.
It’s just that some ministers outside are unhappy. They say that His Majesty is wrong and should marry more wives.
Zhu Youxiao was too lazy to bother with them. It was not good to have too many people in the harem. If the rain and dew were not evenly distributed, it would be impossible to get them all.
How could this little soup be enough for so many people? These three were almost unable to bear it.
So Zhu Youxiao directly rejected the proposal of those ministers.
Putting the child in Concubine Yuan's arms, Zhu Youxiao said with a smile: "Don't be reluctant to control her. If she makes trouble again, spank her."
After hearing this, Concubine Yuan glared at Zhu Youxiao helplessly.
His Majesty only has this kind of temper when he speaks. On ordinary days, he loves his daughter so much that he is reluctant to let go when holding her in his arms, let alone hit her.
Whenever someone needs to be beaten to teach him a lesson, she is the one who does it.
After she finished beating him, His Majesty went to try to comfort her by being a good person. It was really hard to describe.
Besides, isn't it because of him that he spoiled his daughter like this?
Concubine Yuan was unhappy that he was saying such things again.
Seeing Concubine Yuan's expression, Zhu Youxiao felt a little embarrassed and changed the subject directly, saying, "I have something to do ahead. I'll come over after I'm done."
After saying this, Zhu Youxiao walked away with his hands behind his back.
