Chapter 22 I don't read much, don't lie to me

Came to Boss Wang's ironware workshop again, this time Lin Ziran did not leave halfway, but carefully visited the production of the ironware workshop accompanied by Boss Wang.

In Lin Ziran's opinion, this ironware workshop is still not very simple, there are only a few simple machines, which can barely be regarded as machine tool equipment.

But it's simple, but it's also mechanical equipment.

With these mechanical equipment, this ironsmith workshop can actually do a lot of things, at least build a musket, pull a rifling or something.

The only problem is that there are fewer people and less equipment, and the output is naturally unsightly.

Boss Wang saw that Lin Ziran seemed to be very interested in these machines, and couldn't help but talk more: "Don't look at these old equipment, but they are all good things that I personally bought in Zhoucheng a few years ago, and there is no problem at all!" ”

"Now it's hydraulic, but I'm thinking about buying a steam engine from the county, and I've heard that the new steam engine is much better than any other hydraulic engine."

Boss Wang was chattering crookedly beside him, and Lin Ziran didn't reply, watching and listening.

After a while, Lin Ziran replied: "Boss Wang has also been to Zhoucheng, I don't know if I have been to Fuyuan Factory?" ”

Lin Ziran is a bandit leader, and now he is barely a half-real patrol battalion officer, and the focus of this attention is naturally on the ordnance related to the expansion of the army.

From the memory of the original body, he knew that the Fuyuan Ordnance Factory in the city of Nanhai Prefecture was the largest arsenal in Nanhai Prefecture, and the Fuyuan muskets produced by it were widely equipped with bandit gangs such as the counties, counties, feudal towns, and Lin Ziran in Nanhai Prefecture.

This also made Lin Ziran pay a lot of attention to this Fuyuan factory.

Because he was already thinking about waiting for a while for his strength to become stronger, to see if he could directly purchase ordnance from the Fuyuan Factory.

As for Boss Wang's ironware workshop, it is difficult to even change the rifling, and he can't be expected to rely on them to make ordnance.

Hearing the Fuyuan Factory, Boss Wang was interested: "Go, why haven't you been there, I still worked in the Fuyuan Factory when I was young, but although these big factories also make money, they are also very tired and can't stand it!" ”

"Fuyuan Factory is also the number one factory in our Nanhai Prefecture, with thousands of people."

"But this is not the largest factory in the state city, the Nanzhou Machinery Bureau is only called a big one, just like a city, people who don't know the way have to get lost when they enter!"

Boss Wang talked about those big factories and spitted about the state city.

Between these words, people can also feel the prosperity and strength of the state city!

The state city of Nanhai Prefecture is also the county seat of Luohai County, which is generally known as Luohai City.

Luohai City is located at the mouth of the Luo River, and the surrounding area is the plain formed by the alluvial formation of the Luo River for countless years, and at the same time it is rainy in spring and summer, cool in autumn and winter, and the climate is pleasant.

The Luo River is only the fourth largest river in Dahengli, about 2,000 kilometers from northwest to south, but the navigation conditions are excellent, even if the draft is extremely deep, the 1,000-ton sea ships can go up the river along the Luo River and go deep inland.

After the appearance of steamships twenty or thirty years ago, Luohai City was even more prosperous and prosperous.

When Boss Wang said this, the other buns present all showed expressions of amazement, and Luo Mazi even said: "Then there are really millions of people in Luohai City?" How is it possible, although I Luo Mazi doesn't read much, but don't lie to me! ”

Boss Wang glanced at Luo Mazi, too lazy to care about Luo Mazi's words!

He had been to Luohai City when he was young, and the prosperity of the city was enough to make anyone who went there for the first time stunned!

Of course, when he speaks, he can't help but brag about it, he doesn't know if there are millions of people in Luo Haicheng, but no matter how much it is estimated, there are hundreds of thousands.

Lin Ziran on the side listened to Boss Wang talk about Luo Haicheng, and he was also a little curious in his heart, and wanted to ask a few words.

But Lin Ziran prides himself on being a decent person and well-informed, so naturally he can't ask questions, so he seems to be too ignorant, so he endured it.

However, he had already decided to go back and collect all the books in the town, especially some books on astronomy and geography.

Although he inherited all the memories of the original body, the original body was just a bandit leader, and it sounded like he was going south and north, but in fact he was only going around in the mountains of northern Luo'an County, although the original body also went to school for a few years when he was a teenager, but it was only limited to the ordinary reading and writing level, and his knowledge was very limited.

If you have a chance in the future, you have to go to Luo Haicheng to see how prosperous the big cities in this world are.

As for now, just listen to it!

Luohai County is also very chaotic now, such a good place will naturally attract many forces to fight, in the past ten years, it has been a small fight every year, and a big fight in three years

Where wars are fought every year, hell is not chaotic!

Lin Ziran was worried that he would run over so directly, and it was estimated that he would be arrested as cannon fodder before he reached Luohai City!

Besides, after all, he is a bandit leader and a patrol battalion officer, and recruiting troops and grabbing land is his daily business, and going to the big city to open his eyes is such a thing.

Even if you want to go, you have to kill it with a large army later!

Luo Haicheng has changed hands three times in the past ten years, who dares to say that he, Lin Ziran, is not the next owner of the city?

Of course, you can't say this, it's easy to laugh at it!

If Luo Mazi heard Lin Ziran say this, he would definitely compliment him: The big boss is really humorous, I Luo Mazi will never learn this humorous kung fu in my life!

So, there are some things that you can only think about but not say!

Lin Ziran also knew that he was thinking a little too much, but people always had some dreams when they lived in the world.

Even if this is a bandit leader, but bandits have dreams, okay!

Some people want to make 100 million.

And Lin Ziran is thinking that one day he will lead the army into Luohai City!

Regarding the topic of Luohai City, Boss Wang talked for a long time, and everyone listened to it with relish, but even if you listen to it, you still have to live real life.

Soon, everyone changed the subject back to ordnance.

Lin Ziran asked Boss Wang and them to work overtime and change the rest of the guns as soon as possible.

Boss Wang naturally patted his chest and said that there was no problem.

After seeing this iron workshop, Lin Ziran returned to the city gate barracks to continue training his patrol camp.

This recruit training will not see any results for a while, no matter how it is, it will take a month of training to see the initial results, in order to make the recruits become an army as soon as possible, Lin Ziran basically stares at it in person every day.

Two days later, another group of people came outside Qingshan Town.

Unlike the previous arrival of people and horses that caused panic in the town, this time Lin Ziran and the others were quite calm!

Because it was the baggage troops of the Seventh Regiment under Jian Liangzhi.

When Lin Ziran saw dozens of carriages full of various military supplies in the baggage troops, he was already thinking about how to bite off a piece of meat.
