Chapter 1536: Revolver

Qingyang Shuo looked at his urgent face and sighed.

Six hundred revolvers were neither too many nor too few, just enough to arm a small unit.

And such a small unit possessed extremely powerful lethality on the battlefield.

Captain Qiaozhi just had bad luck; he encountered a surprise attack while launching one himself.

His bullets were all gone, and he was forced to be captured.

"My Longyan City only has six hundred revolvers right now, how do you expect me to give them to you?"

Kelinxi looked at Qingyang Shuo and smiled, "This matter is negotiable."

"But does your Longyan City care about this right now?" Kelinxi raised an eyebrow and smiled.

Although he had never met this City Lord Qingyang Shuo, according to reports, this fellow was extremely greedy for money.

Doing business with Qingyang Shuo always started at Gold Coins, with no upper limit.

"Three hundred Gold Coins to buy your six hundred revolvers," Kelinxi said indifferently.

Qingyang Shuo shook his head.

"Mr. Kelinxi, you have misunderstood."

Kelinxi sneered, "Need to add more money, right?"

He leaned in front of Qingyang Shuo and said calmly, "As long as you are willing to sell, money is not a problem."

Qingyang Shuo was stunned, looked at the five fingers Kelinxi extended, and immediately revealed a smile like an old fox.

Although the production of these revolvers was extremely strict, Longyan hadn't produced many.

However, the only place that could produce bullets for the revolvers now was Longyan.

"This price is not impossible to negotiate."

Kelinxi broke into a smile, then raised another finger and continued, "Mr. Qingyang Shuo, let's be straightforward."

A flash of heat crossed Qingyang Shuo's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it: "This..."

Kelinxi sneered in his heart, knowing he wouldn't be satisfied so easily.

He raised another finger.

Only then did Qingyang Shuo nod.

Kelinxi chuckled, "Since it's settled, we shall exchange money and goods at the same time."

"Fine, but this price only includes the six hundred revolvers; the other bullets will be calculated separately."

Hearing this, Kelinxi's smile stiffened.

Qingyang Shuo then said faintly, "It's not that I don't want to give them to you, it's just that the production of this kind of bullet is extremely troublesome and the cost is high. Our Arsenal simply cannot produce them; I have to import them from Longyan."

"There really is no Method at all."

Kelinxi squeezed a smile onto his stiff face and asked, "Then how much is one bullet?"

"How about this, I'll give you a fair price: ten Silver Coins."

Upon hearing the price, Kelinxi's cheek twitched violently.

"Ten Silver Coins!"

Kelinxi's reaction now looked exactly like someone else's.

Facing Kelinxi's roar, Qingyang Shuo calmly picked up his teacup, but watched as Kelinxi's spit fell into the cup.

He slowly put it back down.

Looking at Kelinxi's surprised face, he put on a very troubled expression.

"Mr. Kelinxi, you are making things very difficult for me."

"Let me tell you. From the start of manufacturing to completion, one bullet requires over three hundred processes, then it must cross the ocean, drifting at sea for nearly one or two months before it can reach our ports in America."

"Do you think this cost is still low at ten Silver Coins?"

Kelinxi suddenly found himself speechless.

Just as he wanted to speak, he was blocked by Qingyang Shuo again: "Our Longyan City only has this much left."

"As for the bullets, whether I sell them or not, I don't know if it affects the use of the guns!"

Hearing this, Kelinxi's expression collapsed.

He really wanted to curse this shameless old thief Qingyang Shuo!

Did he not know if it affected them!

Dealing with Longyan until now, they had

finally understood that any weapon produced by Longyan must use ammunition manufactured by Longyan.

Otherwise, it was just a display piece, completely useless!

Kelinxi's face flushed red, his fists creaked, but he still held it in.

They couldn't fall out with Qingyang Shuo yet!

"Fine!"

"Ten Silver Coins per bullet, I want fifteen thousand!"

Qingyang Shuo revealed a smile; the real cost of this kind of bullet for them was less than one Silver Coin.

This kind of bullet could be manufactured by the Arsenal in Yun City.

Fifteen thousand rounds would allow them to profit...

Thinking of this, the corners of Qingyang Shuo's mouth almost reached his ears.

Looking at Kelinxi, this big sucker, was like seeing a big sucker who would send him money at any time; he was instantly excited.

"No problem."

"As long as the money is there, everything is easy to talk about!"

Kelinxi gave a cold snort and said again, "I also want the thing in this room that provides warmth!"

Qingyang Shuo took a look at the big sucker... oh no, Kelinxi, and laughed, "No problem."

"This thing is called a Stove, and it is something our Longyan City Chief Minister, Lord Liu Zheng, spent ten years researching to successfully create."

"The quantity is not large, but for the sake of your face, I will gift you ten Stoves," Qingyang Shuo laughed.

Hearing these words, Kelinxi's expression finally softened a little; at the very least, it did not look as ugly as before.

"That's more like it," Kelinxi muttered.

Qingyang Shuo did not want this big sucker who was delivering money to him to suffer too much of a loss.

After all, a thin stream flows for a long time.

As long as the war between Britain and France did not end, Longyan City could continuously rake in money from these two big suckers.

And constantly strengthen itself.

But that was not possible for now.

Out of safety considerations, Kelinxi chose to complete the delivery and payment right there in Longyan City.

Qingyang Shuo had no objections to this and very readily completed the transaction with Longyan City.

Afterwards, Qingyang Shuo even threw in ten Stoves as a bonus and told them how to use them.

Kelinxi left Longyan City with a look of both heartache and joy.

The heartache was because he had spent too many Gold Coins this time.

The joy was because, with these Revolvers, they would have the ability to protect themselves this winter, and could even launch another surprise attack.

To take down the entire gold mine.

Meanwhile, in the French Colonial Zone.

Richard, who had also received ten thousand Bullets, had the same idea.

He personally tested the power of these Revolvers at the shooting range.

The distance to the bullseye was about one hundred and fifty meters.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

He fired six shots in a row; five shots hit the nine-ring, and one shot hit the ten-ring.

The sharpshooter beside him nodded after watching.

"The precision and accuracy are a bit lacking, but the range is definitely enough."

Hearing this, Richard said calmly, "I was aiming for the nine-ring just now."

The sharpshooter was stunned, suddenly realized something, and instantly shut his mouth.

Richard ignored him, set the gun aside, and said indifferently, "The accuracy and precision of these guns are both quite good."

"Reloading is also fast; they are good things."

Richard could not put them down, but it was a pity that they had only seized six hundred of them this time; if they could have more of these Revolvers, they could completely build an invincible army.

However, such an opportunity now seemed slim to none.

After these guns were studied by experts, they told Richard that the craftsmanship required for these guns was extremely high.

It was difficult to mass-produce them.

Hearing this news, Richard narrowed his eyes slightly and looked into the distance: "Could Long-"

"yan City possess even more Revolvers?"
