Born In England

In Qinglong Martial Arts Hall, Li Lin has just finished a morning of practice.

"Without Qi Boosting Pill, the speed of cultivation is as slow as a turtle!" Li Lin stood up helplessly and sighed.

The person who was sent to purchase precious medicinal materials before is estimated to take a few months to come back. During this period of time, his cultivation level has hardly increased, and he is still staying at the second level of Qi training.

At this time, Li Biao's voice came from outside the door: "Master, that Gavin wants to see you, and he said it was about the Colt pistol!"

"Gavin? Okay, let him come into my study." Li Lin said.

"yes."

Gavin, that is, the son of the old gunsmith Garfield.

After a while, Gavin walked in, and when he saw Li Lin, he said respectfully, "Mr. Li, my father has already made the Colt pistol, and now I invite you to come over." have a look!"

Ever since his father made weapons for Li Lin, he has been connected to Qinglongmen. Now in Liverpool, those big gangs and small gangs hardly dare to bully him.

Anyway, he is living a pretty good life now!

"Colter made it?" Li Lin was slightly delighted when he heard that, but he didn't expect that the old man Garfield was capable.

Originally, he thought it would take a year or so.

Among them, the gun barrel is the most difficult, but considering that this old man used to be a firearms designer in the Royal Arms Company, it should not be difficult to customize the gun barrel privately with some contacts in the past.

"Okay, let's go!" Li Lin patted Gavin on the shoulder with a smile, and led Li Biao and others over there.

an hour later.

Garfield's home.

Li Lin looked at the brand-new Colt M1911 in his hand, "It looks good, but I don't know how stable it is!"

He lightly pulled the trigger, and the unloaded pistol made a crisp sound.

"Have you tried this gun?" Li Lin asked Garfield.

"Of course I tried it. I found a place to test a total of 50 bullets yesterday, and the stability is not bad. It's not much worse than the original gun you showed me." Garfield said confidently.

"Oh?" Li Lin was slightly surprised, and continued: "Okay, this time you have done a great job, and you will definitely be rewarded! Let's find a place to try the gun now!"

Soon, everyone went into the dense forest, found a place, got a simple target, and began to test the guns.

bang bang bang!

Li Lin tried about 30 rounds of ammunition, and found that the gun made by Garfield was really good. Although it was not as accurate as the Colt obtained from the system, the difference was not too big, and it was completely acceptable!

Then he asked everyone to try it again. They tried more than a hundred bullets in total, and found no explosion or jamming.

"Although I don't know how stable it can be, it works just fine! It's a success!" Li Lin thought to himself.

To try its stability, durability, etc., he needs to shoot thousands of bullets continuously to see the data. He doesn't need to do such a luxurious thing for the time being.

After all, he does not plan to set up a weapons company for the time being, so there is no need for such strict requirements!

Of course, it's not that he doesn't want to set up a weapon company. The problem is that with his current status and his energy, this business is untouchable!

Take the Vickers Company in England as an example. There are 2 dukes, 2 marquises, 50 earls and barons, 15 barons, 5 knights, 3 members of the House of Commons, and 21 army or navy members on their board of directors. generals, as well as 2 naval designers and 6 newspaper operators. In addition, several bishops are members of the board of directors of Vickers Corporation. Critics at the time sarcastically said: "England is the mother of Rites, and Vickers is the stepmother of Rites."

In other words, if Li Lin wants to engage in the weapon industry, he must have in-depth cooperation with a group of nobles.

Start a company together!

But the problem is, whether people want to know you, and whether they want to give you the opportunity to cooperate are the biggest problems.

"I don't know if I will get other weapon designs in the future, or even things related to weapons. What should I do?" Li Lin became a little worried.

If a weapon company is established in England, it must cooperate with nobles, and you still have to ask for help!

Of course, if the weapon company is established elsewhere, it will also face this problem.

It's just a matter of difficulty.

Of course, according to the writing methods of those online novels in the previous life, it is also possible to build the factory on an uninhabited island, but you need to transport every piece of material to the island, how much does it cost?

The food, drink and other supplies of the workers in the factory need to be transported there. How much does it cost? How difficult is it?

Second, what if someone finds out?

How to protect it? These are all issues that need to be considered.

So this is also a headache for Li Lin at present!

"Although the Colt M1911 can be manufactured now, there is no need to consider selling it for the time being. After it is manufactured, it can be used by your subordinates first! It is best to let your core members hand in hand." Li Lin began to plan in his heart. .

As for the arms business, let's talk about it later!

Soon, Li Lin and others returned to Garfield's home.

"Mr. Garfield, I am very satisfied with the gun you made. You are really a great gunsmith!" Li Lin praised.

"Don't say such polite words, Mr. Li. In fact, what I admire most is the designer who designed this firearm. Can you tell me? I really want to visit him! His design is definitely an epoch-making design! "Garfield said expectantly.

"There is really no comment on this! In the future, you may know in the future!"

"By the way, I plan to place an order for 1,000 pieces. If you feel that you are short of manpower, I can help you find a few more gunsmiths to help you build them together! How about it, how long will it take to make it?" Li Lin said.

"What? You want to build 1,000? I, I don't have that much energy, I..." "Mr. Garfield, there is a saying in China that those who know the current affairs are brilliant! Your son has joined our Qinglongmen now, and I I think it would be better for you to make weapons for us, besides, the reward we give is not low!" Li Lin said with a smile.

Facing Li Lin's threat, Garfield sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, give me five more gunsmiths and some more equipment, and I can make 100 gunsmiths in a month!"

Li Lin's eyes lit up after hearing this: "Okay! Just wait for your words, equipment and people, it's not a big problem, I'll find it for you!"

After the negotiation was settled, Li Lin returned to Qinglong Martial Arts.

Just at this time, Li Er walked in and reported the situation to him: "Xiaolin, the 400 new core members recruited are enough! Now we have a total of 1,000 core members!"
