Chapter 45 Teenagers, come and work! Ask for a monthly pass)

"Boom..."

A grenade hammer exploded in an open space outside the Zhujiawei Building!

This grenade hammer is much more "advanced" than the "wine pot-shaped" grenade hammer that Chen Jinnan and Qiu Hui saw last time. The main reason is that the hammer head is more like a hammer - it is no longer used to make a wine pot, but is cast by the coin minting master of the Dongyin Coin Factory in Dahao, following the wood model given to them by Zhu Hesheng, and created a hollow copper hammer that can be filled with up to four taels of medicine (can contain less sweet gunpowder and add some copper sheets at the same time).

Therefore, this model of grenade can not only explode and injure people, but also be used to smash people's heads. It is a single hammer and is definitely the best tool to kill Qing demons, kill traitors, and fight against Qing and restore the Ming Dynasty!

Moreover, once this model of grenade reaches mass production scale, it will change the model of future wars.

Perhaps the scene of queuing up to be shot will never appear on the battlefields of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries again.

Maybe using a large Ya-shaped slingshot to fire a grenade hammer is the most common scene in future wars! In the future, France might take the emperor's army with a slingshot and a copper hammer to the battlefield.

Of course, the Ya-shaped slingshot has not been developed yet - this thing requires the gold finger of vulcanized rubber. Vulcanized rubber is not difficult to make, but Zhu Hesheng cannot buy natural rubber now, so Zhu Hesheng can only use a counterweight trencher to just go.

At the same time, he also selected twenty or thirty "Rebel Army" soldiers with thick arms, and practiced bomb drops outside Gucheng Village with training hammers loaded with sand every day.

Zhu Hesheng has also been training and dropped bombs these days, spending an hour practicing every day... The rest of the time has to focus on production and promote learning, and has to deal with young powerful men like Ma Chenglong, Li Youcai, and Lin Ahu. He is so busy.

To be honest, it is really hard to be a warlord at this stage of entrepreneurship!

"Three, how about it?" Zhu Hesheng was standing behind a chest wall built with sandbags at this time, pointing to dozens of scarecrows in front of him who were blown up by grenades, and said proudly to Lin Ahu, Ma Xiucai, and Old Man Li, "This explosion is more powerful than a turtle dove-footed musket? Lin Ahu, can your cannon open the flower bullet? Can the flower bullets fired have such power?"

"Architecture Zhu... Young Master, isn't the grenade filled with ordinary gunpowder? It looks like it is several times larger than ordinary gunpowder!" Lin Ahu's name for Zhu Hesheng has changed, and he dared not call him Huanming, but respectfully called him "Young Master".

Zhu Hesheng was convinced when he saw this "tiger", and quickly shook his body and looked at Li Youcai and Ma Chenglong with burning eyes.

The two of them quickly bowed and said "Young Master".

Zhu Hesheng immediately showed a smile. His current "evil" has been sublimated. There is no need to shout and kill, nor do you need to curse. No need to be stern, and others will know his "evil". Because he has mastered the most powerful arms in the 17th century - sweet gunpowder!

"Ahu," Zhu Hesheng smiled and said to Lin Ahu, "You guessed that a new type of gunpowder with particularly powerful added to this grenade hammer... I invented this gunpowder, and now I can only do it in the world! There is no one in the Tartars, so they can only be bombed!"

None of the Tartars?

So, is there really a chance to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty?

"Young Master," Li Youcai, the big salt owl, was careful to do things, so he asked again, "Is this new type of gunpowder difficult to make? What raw materials do you use?"

This is a military secret!

However, Zhu Hesheng is still willing to disclose his patents to the three little heroes in front of him.

He smiled and said, "The main raw materials of new gunpowder are tinea and white sugar!"

"White sugar?" Ma Xiucai Ma Chenglong's eyes lit up, "This is easy to deal with! Our Longjing is rich in white sugar!"

In addition to an ancient fishing village, Longjing also has large areas of sugar cane fields, which produce a large amount of sugar for export every year. These days, sugar is much more expensive than beef (the price in Dahao can reach fifty or sixty cents per kilogram, and in Beijing, it is hundreds of cents in Nanjing), so it is still very profitable to grow sugar cane to produce sugar... If sugar can be further become an "arms", the price will be even more expensive!

Zhu Hesheng nodded and smiled, "Although the materials used for this new type of gunpowder are not complicated, they are still troublesome to prepare... Moreover, this new type of gunpowder is too powerful to be used to fire guns and shells, so black gunpowder is still needed."

His eyes swept over Lin Ahu, Li Youcai, and Ma Chenglong, and said, "Since you call me a young master, I can't make a fortune alone. Moreover, I am doing big things, and I am not a businessman who only knows money?"

What does this mean?

Do you have money to make money together?

This young master is OK, it’s more interesting than the boss Hui!

All three of them looked at Zhu Hesheng with great pride.

Zhu Hesheng said with his fingers: "This pile of nitrate, making nitrate, making black gunpowder, and making sweet gunpowder are all craftsmanship... I can pass it on, but you all know this rule, right? You have to learn from your master!"

All three nodded, but no one knelt down and called the master.

Zhu Hesheng smiled and said, "Of course, you three are old, so I can't accept you as disciples, and I can teach you Dharma too!

There are many smart boys among your tribes, right? Each of them will pick up a hundred people and send them. You can't be too young. I'll be their master myself if you're over twelve or under 18."

Zhu Hesheng said that the rules for learning to learn from his master are the "feudal habits of helping others", which is "three years of apprenticeship and two years of service", "the master's destiny is the most important thing", "the master's destiny is to clean up the door", etc.

So he couldn't teach Lin Ahu, Li Youcai, and Ma Chenglong... These three are all powerful men with great prestige and it was impossible for them to really abide by the rules of master and apprenticeship. At most, the three of them would just hand Zhu Hesheng a post to their disciples and form nominal master and apprenticeship, and it was impossible for them to really teach their skills.

If you really want to learn the art, you can only choose the teenagers of the three races to come and worship Zhu Hesheng as your teacher.

In other words, three hundred young men will give Zhu Hesheng five years to do it!

Not only do you have to do it for nothing, but you also have to learn the skills and knowledge that Zhu Hesheng wants them to learn - if you have five years to teach slowly, how can you teach hundreds of "middle school youth"?

In addition to these three hundred teenagers, Zhu Hesheng also had sixty young soldiers from Tianwang Village. Daboling also recruited forty or fifty teenagers from Jinghai Fortress, and Qiu Hui also sent twenty or thirty people.

In addition, Zhu Hesheng also planned to recruit some merchants from Haimen Port and Dahao Island to learn the arts, and strive to gather him as a young man of 500 middle school.

In this way, Zhu Hesheng’s nitrogen collection field and gunpowder factory will not be short of labor!

Moreover, Zhu Hesheng can also arm them and make them "workers' armed forces"... Wouldn't the workers' armed forces fight the feudal army be destroyed?

After Zhu Hesheng finished speaking, Lin Ahu, Li Youcai, and Ma Chenglong were all ecstatic and thanked Zhu Hesheng one after another.

"This is so good. The young master is willing to teach them, which is their blessing!"

"Thank you, the young master, for preaching. I will go back and recruit people for you now, and keep all 100 people!"

"Naruta must remember the kindness of the young master!"

Because Guangdong has not been stable for many years, and after the chaos in the late Ming Dynasty, conflicts between people and land disappeared and food supply was sufficient, the fertility rate was relatively high, and there were more children from all clans.

These half-aged men cannot do heavy work for adults, but they eat more than adults. It would be great if they could send some out to learn craftsmanship.

Seeing these three people convinced, Zhu Hesheng couldn't stop smiling. After these three families handed over 100 teenagers, Narita, Longtian and Longjing, even if Zhu Hesheng had completely mastered the three capitals.

Only when he, the big warlord from five villages, has been put into practice.

Thinking of this, Zhu Hesheng's smile had already been closed: "Three, I really treat you as my own people... But do you really treat me as the young master?"

This is a condition to be made!

How can you teach others your true skills for nothing?

Lin Ahu, Ma Chenglong and Li Youcai quickly patted their chests and promised.

"You are our young master!"

"Young master, but he has his own fate, Ah Hu will do everything!"

"Young Master, just order it!"
