Chapter 416 New Weapons
"This man's name is Xiang Yutang. We met by chance on the ship. He grew up abroad."
"Adjutant Qi has inquired about it. He studied chemistry and biology, but the foreigners abroad don't like him. Even if he has good ideas, they won't believe them."
"They only believe in themselves. He heard that the country was doing well, so he came back. We brought him back to Beiyang City."
"He taught Juanjuan and Achen a lot along the way, but I hope you can get in touch with him to see if he can use it for us." Siming recounted Xiang Yutang's situation.
"Chemistry and biology?" Si Gu's eyes lit up.
"That's what he said. I have no way of confirming how well he has learned. You can only observe and judge for yourself." Siming still maintained a skeptical attitude towards him.
But what should be given should still be given. As for whether he has real ability, we will have to see in the days to come.
Si Gu has already started thinking about whether chemistry can solve the problem of raw materials for Western medicine.
And it will also be of great use in other aspects.
He was almost impatient to meet this person and discuss something with him.
Si Tian waited for them to finish before speaking: "The orders from the clothing factory and the shoe and hat factory have increased a lot recently. We may have to put the bulletproof vest issue aside for now."
"There's also the hardware factory, which has already produced a batch of children's bicycles, and they're selling very well."
"The sales of the canning factory and other factories are growing steadily. I am considering acquiring a bank." Si Tian said to several people.
"Bank?" Mrs. Si was a little surprised by his decision.
"Yes, the bank will be helpful for our future investments. However, acquiring a bank is not that easy. I must at least obtain a controlling stake."
Although Si Tian thought so, it was still difficult to implement it.
Now many banks are in the hands of foreigners, with state-owned banks accounting for a small portion, and there are also some small private banks.
The development prospects of such a bank are not very promising, and it would be best to obtain controlling stake in a large bank.
Miao Jiu rested his head on the armrest of the sofa with one hand: "Ah Tian, you are quite ambitious. Stocks are something you can lose everything if you are not careful."
"Brother-in-law, we have to gamble now. We will need money a lot later." Si Tian looked at him and sighed.
Construction of the aircraft apron and runway has now begun, but all this is being done in secret.
The construction workers didn't know what it was used for. After all, a group of people would be replaced after each section of construction to ensure safety.
Siming tapped his fingers casually on his legs: "You can try, take Juanjuan with you."
"Okay, I just said I would take her with me before, but it was delayed until now." Si Tian had originally planned to take her with him.
"What's the situation over there in the valley?" Siming is now more concerned about the situation over there.
"Everything is going smoothly. The power has been restored and the power system is stable. Father and son Jiang have already started casting the model made by Achen and Mayang."
"If everything goes well, the first batch of his improved shotguns will be ready before the end of the year." Miao Jiu looked at him and said.
He was also looking forward to the improved guns. He heard that they were much more powerful than before and the bullet reserves were also increased.
Ma Yang's eyes lit up when he heard this, because this was made by him and the young master together.
But the most important thing is the lady's prompts, otherwise it would not be completed.
This time he will not leave until after the Chinese New Year, so he should be able to try other things with the young master.
Madam Si looked at the clock on the wall. It was almost midnight. "Now that we have finished discussing important matters, let's all go back and rest."
Liu Cheng'an stood up and prepared to leave the Si family, and Xiao Zhang drove him back.
The next day.
Ma Yang took Yan Anqing's class again and it was very pleasant.
Yan Anqing looked at his homework and stroked his beard with satisfaction. This kid is really hardworking.
Chu Zhaoning also took Ma Yang's martial arts exam and patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "You've made great progress. I'm afraid that in a few years, I won't be your opponent."
"Teacher Chu, you are too modest." Ma Yang didn't think so.
He has been working hard to practice solid basic skills in the military academy, so his physical fitness is better than that of his classmates.
Seeing how quickly he was progressing, Liu Yueya became more determined to go to military school.
The four children were still very serious in Si Gu's class. As for Juanjuan who was absent-minded, he could only turn a blind eye.
When all the classes for the day were over, several children ran to the room full of guns.
"I heard that Mr. Jiang has started making the guns that we improved before." Ma Yang said with a smile as he looked at the few people.
"Really?" Liu Yueya and Si Jinchen both looked surprised.
"Well, if nothing goes wrong we will be able to see it before the New Year." Ma Yang himself was also looking forward to the gun they had improved together.
"Then let's keep working hard and see if we can make other guns better." Si Jinchen encouraged them.
Juanjuan found the telescope that Liu Yueya gave her from somewhere, took it out of the box and put it to one of her eyes.
"Falcon, I've locked onto you, surrender quickly."
She closed one eye and looked into the distance through the telescope, and saw a peregrine falcon standing on a tree far away.
The little hand made a small pistol shape, as if it was about to shoot.
The three of them looked at Juanjuan who was sitting on the ground, holding a telescope, looking at the sky, the ground, and then at them.
"What do you think would happen if guns could see the enemy clearly from a long distance?" Ma Yang asked the two men.
"Kill the enemy faster?" This was Liu Yueya's first thought.
Si Jinchen didn't answer so quickly, but thought seriously. If he were on the battlefield, he would need to occupy the highest position and have some cover.
Then the person who can see and aim at the enemy at the highest point can be considered invincible and can even block the enemy's offensive rhythm.
It can also protect your teammates and avoid causing greater casualties.
Si Jinchen and Ma Yang expressed their thoughts at the same time and found that although their statements were different, their purposes were the same.
This is the perfect sentry tower, which can disrupt the enemy's attack and protect your teammates.
After listening to this, Liu Yueya thought of something, but she still disliked it when she went to the clothing factory.
Now hearing their description, I suddenly got excited: "I thought of something."
Juanjuan put down the telescope in his hand and looked at her with his head tilted.
The other two also looked at her and asked, "Sister Yueya, what did you think of?"
