Chapter 128 Architect Baroque
To tell the truth, although Tang An knew about firearms, even more advanced firearms and weapons, knowing and being able to design them were two different things.

Just such a revolver, limited by the manufacturing process, coupled with the degree of realization of the parts to be processed, has to be designed one by one according to the drawings, and not everyone can do it.

Of course, if there are ready-made design drawings, that's another matter.

Anyway, Tang An fell in love with this revolver.

But no matter how much he likes it, he can't ask for it directly. That would be 'disrespect' to the great craftsman Heglic.

So he put down the gun, and then said: "It is indeed an amazing work of art, but it is only a little novel and innovative in design. In terms of craftsmanship, it is much worse than Mr. Hegrick's work."

The horse was taken directly. Of course, the two of them knew each other very well, so Hegrick was also very happy and proud.

"Design and innovation are also very important." He said.

He obviously admitted what Tang An said.

"I really want to see Mr. Hegrick's work, really, and I will be the first to buy it as a treasure." Tang An sent another compliment, and at the same time, expressed his appeal.

Hegrick smiled: "It will take a few days for this matter. Actually, I have already started to make it, but some parts are very difficult to process."

Tang An agrees with this point.

It doesn't matter how many days you wait, as long as you can get it.

Tang An remembered his purpose at this time, took out the engineering drawings he had obtained, and gave them to Heglic.These engineering drawings are in line with the current world No. 16, and will not be too advanced or too backward.

Naturally, Hegrick liked it very much. Tang An looked at Hegrick's favorability and raised it a bit.

"I also encountered some dangers during this trip, and almost died several times." Tang An said at this time, and he was not lying.

During this period of time, there were indeed several dangerous encounters.

"Fortunately, there is a hand-held cannon made by Mr. Hegrick. Strictly speaking, it is thanks to Mr. Hegrick that I can survive to this day." Tang An said at this time.

This compliment is obviously more skillful.

Heglic couldn't hide the smile on his face.

"Where is the hand cannon, I'll take a look and take care of it."

"In the carriage, I'll go get it."

Tang An ran out. Of course, this was just an excuse. He couldn't take anything from the six-compartment bag in front of Heglic.

Soon, Tang An turned back with a hand-held cannon in his hand.

Heglic took it and looked at it: "The wear and tear is quite serious. When I was designing it, I only focused on power. The force of the gunpowder explosion was too great. Fortunately, the barrel I designed is stable enough. Wait a moment."

Hegrick began to disassemble skillfully, placing the parts on the table one by one. After a while, the hand-held cannon was disassembled into more than a dozen parts.

It has to be said that Hegrick's attainments in mechanical design are extremely high.

After disassembly, some parts needed to be replaced and oiled due to wear and deformation, which Hegrick did with ease.

Tang An was watching from the side, chatting about some anecdotes about Rhine Town from time to time.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door again.

Hegrick frowned, and said to Tang An: "When I'm working, I usually don't like being disturbed, except for you, Tang, of course."

"I'm very honored." Tang An smiled.

Now he is quite fluent in Lathiya, and there is almost no difference between him and the people of this world.

The person in charge of opening the door was naturally Lin Zifeng.

This is what an apprentice must do. Tang An felt sorry for the boy at this time.

It is because he is an apprentice, so in terms of status, it is impossible to become a friend of Hegrick, and Hegrick is extremely rigorous in academics.

The reason he was able to talk and laugh with Tang An was because he regarded Tang An as a friend, and Tang An was not in the field of engineering, so even if he said something wrong, he would not care.

But Lin Zifeng was different.

As his apprentice, given his character, he must be very strict. This is the quality of a responsible mentor. Otherwise, if he says something wrong, it will not only embarrass Lin Zifeng himself, but it will also affect his reputation as a mentor.

Therefore, Tang An could drink steaming coffee and chat with Hegrick on the top, while Lin Zifeng could only study and study in the apprentice room below, and he had to do some things that servants would do.

"Teacher, a Mr. Baroque came to see you." Lin Zifeng's voice came from downstairs.

"Baroque?" Hegrick was taken aback for a moment, then seemed to think of something, and slapped his head: "Oh my god, I actually forgot about this, damn it."

After saying that, he hurriedly said to Tang An: "Baroque is an old friend of mine, an architect. He comes from Quin City, which is a big city. You happen to be here too. I can introduce you to your strange ideas." There are many weird thoughts, I think you will be able to chat about them."

While speaking, he changed his clothes, and then went out to meet Tang An together.

Outside the door, there was a very elegant carriage parked, and under the carriage stood an old man with a kind face, dressed formally and elegantly.

"Baroque, my old friend!" Hergrick stepped forward to hug him.

Apparently, they really are old friends.

In addition, this Baroque was definitely not an ordinary person. Tang An noticed that Lin Zifeng was also observing carefully, and Tang An had a feeling.

Lin Zifeng knew the details of this baroque.

Because he has been peeking into other people's carriages.

Could it be that there was someone else in the carriage?
If this was the case before, Tang An could only guess by himself, but now that he has the advanced extraordinary ability of the seer, the vision of the prophet, then, can some things be 'predicted'?
Tang An looked at the carriage and used the Prophet's Eye.

He wants to do an experiment.

But Tang An soon learned one thing. With the eyes of a prophet, you can only see one item. What will happen in 20 seconds is bound to happen. If you just assume that you walk over, open the car door, and look inside.

Things like this are unpredictable.

Unless the people on the carriage take the initiative to get out 20 seconds later, it is still unpredictable.

Tang An sighed.

If you think about it carefully, this is also inevitable, otherwise conditional predictions can really be made, and that would be amazing.Of course, when using the Prophet's Purpose, there is another rule, which Tang An has known for a long time, that is, the future can be changed.

To put it simply, if Tang An had a gun in his hand, pointed it at a target, and didn't shoot, then he would never know whether he would hit the target.

Only when he shoots will he predict what will happen later, it is nothing more than a hit or a miss. The purpose of the prophet is to be able to choose the 'result' Tang An wants to see.

In other words, if you want to know who is in the carriage, you must either open the door for others, or open the door for him.

Then choose the best one from the results of the inevitable opening of the door.

So, do you want to open the door yourself?
Tang An was a little hesitant. Not all outcomes were good outcomes. If the alternatives were all bad outcomes, it would be troublesome.
