The road was extremely slow, and the sun set out at midnight every day. When the sun was just west, it stayed in the sky. It took only three hours, and it could not even reach ten miles per hour. For an army composed of cavalry, its speed was already outrageously slow.

Fortunately, no one cares about them, and Wang Ping'an is very tactful and never harasses local officials. Moreover, if he can stay at the inn, he will try not to spend the night at the inn. In this way, no local official dislikes him, and the road is smooth.

After ten days, Wang Ping brought a group of troops to Qizhou. After leaving the Jingji area of ​​Chang'an, the nearest state, he did not let the soldiers enter the city, but instead found a large town outside the city and stationed in the town.

That night, Wang Ping'an called Jiang Tiedan'er. Because he had been taking medicine these days, Jiang Tiedan'er's condition improved greatly. He had eaten, drink, defecation and urination. He was almost cured.

Wang Ping'an examined Jiang Tiedan'er again and said to Jiang's couple: "Tiedan'er's disease is probably cured in less than five days. But as the saying goes, the disease comes like a mountain of falling, and the disease goes like a thread to get rid of it. I'm afraid that the disease will be repeated!"

Jiang Lao Nian was anxious, but stammered and couldn't speak clearly. Aunt Jiang had to say it for him. Aunt Jiang said, "Marty, you can save people to the end, but you must have to get Tiedan'er's illness removed!"

Wang Ping'an said: "That's natural. I either don't save me. If I want to save me, I have to save me to the end. Don't worry." After a pause, he said: "By the way, I suddenly remembered something. I want to build a weapon to defend myself. I wonder if Brother Jiang can help me?"

The Jiang couple followed Wang Ping'an on the road. Wang Ping'an specifically instructed them to treat them well. Therefore, Ouyang Li changed into new clothes for their family of four and asked them to take a bus every day. He greeted them with delicious food and drinks, which was really good to them.

The Jiang couple no longer called Wang Ping'an the little genius doctor Ping'an, but called the Marquis. They felt that Wang Ping'an was so good that he was so good that he had nothing to say. They treated him and gave him food and clothing, so that they didn't know how to repay him. They could only be grateful in their hearts. In addition, they prayed to God before going to bed every night, wishing Wang Ping'an a hundred years of life.

Just as he was worried that he could not repay him, Wang Ping'an spoke up, and how could the Jiang couple not agree? Jiang Lao Nian'er was abnormal and quickly patted his chest and said loudly: "Mr. Marquis, please give me instructions. As long as the villain can do it, I will do my best!"

Aunt Jiang said hurriedly: "Don't worry, Marquis, I am in charge of other things, but it's absolutely right to find him by making weapons! How much pounds of general's sword do you want to hit?"

She thought Wang Ping'an wanted to make a big knife and pretend to behave! They heard these days that Wang Ping'an was going to go outside the pass, and of course he had to show off his power when he went to the grassland. If he could have a big knife for decoration, it would be the best thing!

Wang Ping'an smiled and shook his head and said, "I'm not going to fight the General's sword. I have countless warriors under me, so I don't need that thing to show off. I want to create such a thing." As he said that, he took out a piece of paper and asked Jiang Lao Nianer to come and see it.

Jiang Lao Nian quickly stood up, took the paper and looked at it. He saw something a bit like a sickle on the paper. There was a tube in front, which was round and not thrown away. There was a handle at the back, and there were some small objects on it. I don’t know what it was.

Jiang Lao Nianer suddenly became dumbfounded and looked at her wife. Aunt Jiang followed her husband for a long time and naturally knew about various weapons. When she came over and saw it, she immediately became dumbfounded!

I was a little too anxious to boast. They have indeed seen all the weapons in the world, but they have never seen such things!

Jiang Lao Nian'er was imagining in his heart how to hold this weapon and how to attack the enemy. But after thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure it out!

Wang Ping'an looked at them, smiled and said nothing, and did not speak out.

After a while, the Jiang couple, who believed that there was no weapon they could not make, had to admit defeat! Aunt Jiang asked, "Marty, is this a sickle or an axe? It's not like it!"

Wang Ping'an smiled and said, "This thing is called a musket, which is used to fire bullets!"

"Mustgun, bullet? What do you mean? I haven't heard of it!" Jiang and his wife asked in confusion.

In this era, let alone muskets, there is not even gunpowder yet. Where did they know about these things?

Wang Ping'an said: "There is another picture here, which is to separate the thing called muskets. You can take a look at the pictures of each part."

As he spoke, he took out another picture and handed it to the Jiang couple. The picture was drawn in detail, and each part was drawn in standard and the size was also indicated, which was very detailed.

Looking at the second picture, the Jiang couple still didn't understand. They were dizzy now. They really didn't know what this thing was, what it could be used for. Judging from the size, it was smaller than an axe, smaller than the Yu Ruyi held by the rich man. At most it was just a small holder. Can this also be called a weapon?

When Jiang Lao Nian was anxious, he couldn't speak. Aunt Jiang said, "Marty, this cannot be used to kill people, right?"

Wang Ping'an smiled and said, "Don't worry about whether you can kill someone for now. I just ask you, can you create such a thing according to the drawings?"

When talking about craftsmanship, Jiang Lao Nian'er's confidence came back. He nodded and said, "Yes, it can be created. Although it is a little more exquisite, it is much simpler than carving patterns on iron eggs. There is nothing special about it!"

Wang Ping'an said with a oh, "Is it difficult to carve patterns on the iron egg?"

Aunt Jiang hurriedly said, "It's very difficult for others, but it's not difficult for me to be in charge! If you make this thing according to the Marquis' drawings, it's not a problem at all, but what is this?"

Wang Ping'an breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he could make it, he would naturally know what it was! After making it, he smiled and said, "How long does it take to use the best iron to make it?"

Jiang Lao Nian thought for a while and said, "While the road, the production process is as long as you go. As for the rest time every day, it will take more than ten days, not more than half a month. If you stop at one place and carefully prepare it, you can make a rough one in two days, polish it carefully, assemble it, and add it up to five days at most!"

Wang Ping'an was overjoyed. A skilled craftsman is awesome. Although he didn't know what a musket was, he could be made according to the drawings. This is really great!

He said: "Our next stop is Longzhou, where we can go to make preparations, but we will do the preparations in Qizhou. When you are on the road, you can take a closer look and strive to do the best. What do you think?"

Jiang Lao Nian whispered: "If you make it according to the drawings, you don't need to figure it out!"

Wang Ping'an pointed to the iron pipe on the picture and said, "This pipe must be seamless and cannot be welded. You can do it, right?"

Aunt Jiang nodded immediately and said indifferently: "Yes, this is my master's skill. I dare not say it to Gyeongju to the south, but to Gyeongju to the north, only I am the master's skill to the north!"

Wang Ping'an nodded and said, "Then do it. Go and find Di Renjie. My brother will prepare all the things you need. Don't be afraid of spending money. Make everything lenient. If this thing is ready, I will give you an official and let you be a lieutenant!"

The Jiang couple was shocked. Although this musket or something was strange, it was not very difficult for them. Just by this, you can become an official or a lieutenant?

Aunt Jiang murmured, "This, the Marquis was trying to polite us, right? We have never done anything!" There is actually a good person like Wang Ping'an in the world who treats children, provides food and clothing, and also sings Jiang Lao Nian as an official. There will be no such good things, right?

Wang Ping'an smiled and said, "As long as you work hard for me, there will be many benefits in the future. Just a lieutenant, what's the point!" He waved his hand and asked the Jiang couple to leave with the drawings.

The Jiang couple took their son Tiedan'er out of the house and returned to their place where they lived. They were inexplicably surprised and could not think of what the musket was important.

Jiang Lao Nian'er asked, "Damn, why do you think the Marquis are so good to us? Your head is so good, think about it!"

Aunt Jiang shook her head and said, "I, I can't think of it..." As she was talking, Jiang Tiehuaner came in from outside, holding a kettle in one hand and two small bags in the other, with a red face.

Aunt Jiang asked, "Daughter, what are you doing? What are you holding in your hand?"

Miss Jiang blushed and whispered: "I just went out to fetch water, but I didn't want to meet Brother Hou. He gave me a small bag. When he came back, he met Brother Niu. He also gave me a small bag. I don't know what it contains!"

The brother Hou she was talking about was Hou Ling, and the brother Niu she was talking about was naturally Niu Dali. The two guys fell in love with her and naturally curled up with all their strength and used their own means to please her. Miss Jiang himself also understood, but she was embarrassed to say it.

Aunt Jiang took the two small bags from her hand and smiled and said, "These days, someone has given you something every day." When she opened the small bag, she saw that one of the bags contained pine nut candy and the other contained mutton jerky, which were all very exquisite snacks.

Jiang Tiedan'er's eyes lit up and she shouted, "Okay, give it to me, give it to me!" She reached out and grabbed the candy, put it in her mouth and started eating.

Aunt Jiang looked at her daughter, then looked at two packs of exquisite snacks. Suddenly she slapped her thighs and shouted, "Master, I understand why the Marquis is so nice to us? He is fond of our Tiehuaner, and is trying to please you, your father-in-law!"

Jiang Lao Nian'er whispered, suddenly realized, and said, "So that's the case!"

Miss Jiang became even more shy and whispered: "How could the Marquis fall in love with me? He has two maids!"

Aunt Jiang curled her lips and said, "That's not necessarily the case. Look at what those two little girls look like, like thin monkeys!"

Jiang Lao Nian took out the drawings and looked carefully. His son grabbed a piece of dried mutton and stuffed it into his mouth. Jiang Lao Nian said while chewing the dried stew, "Then this thing needs to be cooked well, and the Marquis... must satisfy Ping'an!"
