Rich and powerful

Lin Yun sighed and said, "I thought we could concentrate on developing for a year or so after the next year, but we didn't expect it to be revealed so soon! We must not retreat half a step, otherwise the Lin family will continue to squeeze us even harder! There is only one plan for now. There is a way to go! As for the starling asking me if I am ready, it doesn't matter, I have already made enough mental preparations from the day I planned to fight the Lin family to the end!"

"If myna is willing to share weal and woe with me, then I will never let you down!"

Lin Xuan was waiting for this sentence, his eyes lit up, he clasped his fists and said: "Brother Yu is incompetent, I am willing to listen to my fourteenth brother!"

Lin Yun turned his head to look at Ah San, and said, "Ah San, go and invite Mr. Yang!"

"Yes!!"

Ah San turned around and left.

Lin Xuan frowned and said, "Old Yang? Who is this?"

Lin Yun said with a smile: "Brother, please be safe and don't be impatient. Since the next struggle with the Lin family is inevitable, then I will give mynah some good things!"

Lin Xuan also secretly looked forward to it. He had seen Lin Yun's methods before.

Knowing that my fourteenth brother has endless means, if he really fights with the Lin family, he may not lose, at least in the short term, the Lin family will not get any cheap.

It's not like they have no chance at all.

At first, Lin Xuan just wanted to be a rich man, and he could live a good life from year to year.

Of course, he has trained a large number of subordinates in Taoyuan Town this year, and he has also made some preparations.

After all, ants still steal their lives, let alone living people.

Soon, Ah San and Yang Tiexin walked in.

When Yang Tiexin saw an outsider, he immediately said respectfully, "Young Master, I have seen you!"

Lin Yun got up and smiled, and supported him to sit on the chair.

Seeing this, Lin Xuan was also secretly surprised. For Lin Yun to treat him so courteously, this old man must be no ordinary person.

Lin Yun sat down again and explained: "Old Yang, this Lin Xuan is my half-brother, and even my starling!"

Yang Tiexin suddenly realized, and hurriedly clasped his fists in greeting.

"Brother, this Mr. Yang used to be an old blacksmith in the blacksmith shop in Yucheng, but don't underestimate him. Mr. Yang is skilled and has helped me a lot. Now it is my Niubei Village who is responsible for producing and manufacturing all kinds of blacksmiths. The person in charge of weapons and equipment!"

Lin Xuan stared, and quickly got up to bow.

From his point of view, his fourteenth brother seemed to be just an ordinary introduction, but in his ears, the taste changed again.

Now in the entire area of ​​Yucheng and Haocheng, there is no one who does not know that Niubei Village is powerful and has excellent weapons.

In particular, bamboo guns have long been the golden signboard of Niubei Village.

If it is true what my fourteenth brother said, then this unremarkable old man in front of him is definitely a very powerful person.

The bamboo gun is a cross-age weapon that will change the way of fighting in the future.

Yang Tiexin also looked puzzled when he was praised so highly by Lin Yun.

But seeing Lin Yun winking at him, he could only acquiesce.

Lin Yun could only push Yang Tiexin to the front, he didn't want to expose himself.

The outside world only knows that Niubei Village is the production place of bamboo guns, but they don't know who made the bamboo guns.

Lin Xuan seemed to understand what Lin Yun meant, and said, "The fourteenth brother means..."

Lin Yun smiled and said, "How many people are there under Starling's command now? I mean, how many people are trustworthy!"

"There are about 200 people! But there are only [-] people who I value more, and the rest are recruited from Taoyuan Town!"

"Okay, then I will calculate based on the scale of 200 people!"

Immediately, he looked at Yang Tiexin again and said, "Old Yang, how long will it take to make two hundred bamboo guns?"

Yang Tiexin stroked the uneven beard on his chin, and said decisively: "If the villagers are employed, the project can be completed in at most three days!"

Lin Yun nodded. He is now very confident in the production capacity of Niubei Village.

The villagers followed me for more than a year, during which they suffered a lot and suffered a lot.

But after this year's tempering, their production capacity has also increased rapidly, and the efficiency of working together is extremely high.

This made Lin Yun very satisfied.

On the other hand, Lin Xuan was taken aback, and said, "Fourteenth Brother, can Niubei Village produce two hundred bamboo guns in three days?"

Lin Yun smiled and said: "Yes! Nowadays, the manufacturing technology of bamboo guns has matured, and it can be mass-produced!"

"Great!! If you have these weapons with great lethality, it will be much easier to deal with the Lin family!"

While Lin Xuan was shocked, he also began to imagine.

Based on the manufacturing progress of [-] bamboo tube guns, about [-] bamboo tube guns can be produced in a month. If all of them are used to arm the army, what kind of combat effectiveness will it be?

Two thousand soldiers with bamboo guns completely outnumbered the opponent's [-] regular army.

Thinking of this, Lin Xuan suddenly became excited, stood up suddenly, and said: "Okay!! No wonder the fourteenth brother has such ambitions, so it turns out that he has such a powerful trump card in his hand!"

Lin Yun smiled slightly and said, "Myna, don't be too optimistic! Bamboo guns are powerful, but they also require manufacturing costs. Although we have some money in hand now, we still can't do it if we equip soldiers in large quantities! First of all, the raw materials That's a big problem!"

Bamboo tube guns are naturally made of bamboo, but bamboo suitable for making guns is very rare. If it does not meet the standards, even if a bamboo tube gun is manufactured, there will be a safety hazard.

Lin Xuan nodded and said, "Take it easy!! I believe that after the Lin family has suffered a few times, they will not dare to do anything to us easily!"

Lin Yun jokingly said: "Actually, it's better for them to do it earlier, and tear up their face in advance, so we don't have to pay taxes to the Lin family every year!" '

At this time, Lin Xuan waved to the subordinate standing behind him, who immediately took out a stack of bank notes in his arms.

Lin Yun saw it in his eyes, and asked in puzzlement, "What does myna mean?"

"Brother Yu knows that the fourteenth brother has money now, but brother Yu can't let you spend too much! Here is 1 taels of silver, and I don't know if it is enough for the production cost. If it is not enough, please bear the burden of the fourteenth brother!"

Lin Yun smiled wryly and said: "Brother, forget about the money! You are going to face the Lin family this time, and you are protecting me from the wind and rain, buying more time. How can I ask for your money? You need money in Taoyuan Town There are still many places!"

Lin Xuan looked embarrassed, and it was true. During this period of tossing, he didn't have much money at his disposal.

Although the copper mine on Nianzi Mountain was officially mined, but now that it has been mined, no gold owner has yet bought it.

It is also very difficult for him to feed a large number of people.

Lin Yun forced the banknote back into his hand, and said with a smile, "Actually, the cost of making a bamboo gun is not high, as long as there is enough bamboo!"

"Bamboo? My Taoyuan Town is called Xiaojiangnan in Fengyang County. There are bamboo forests everywhere. You can have as many bamboos as you want!"

Lin Yun nodded and said: "Okay, if there is a need, I will say hello to myna!"
