Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World Chapter 242

After Bryce and Joyce entered the conference room, Derrick got up to welcome them and asked them to sit beside him.

More than one person frowned, because these two people were neither nobles nor knights, and letting them sit with him would really be degrading their status.

According to the intentions of many people, they can only stand when they come in.

What's even more infuriating is that these two guys didn't even have the slightest intention of being humble, and just sat down like that, as if it should be taken for granted.

Really, don't you know who you are? How did Gleiman teach them?

Price Parker didn't mind at all, he cleared his throat and said:

"Everyone! The last new force has arrived, let us discuss how to deal with the Kent family!"

But Viscount Johnston frowned and said, "My lord, should we set the rules first, and it will not be good for everyone if the situation like today happens again."

As soon as the viscount's words fell, there was a voice of agreement. It was not only the major counts who came to join the battle, but also small lords such as viscounts and barons.

Before Earl Parker said anything, Derrick Heller stood up blushing.

"Everyone, it was because of my recklessness that I caused everyone to fight in a daze. I hereby solemnly apologize to everyone!"

"Well...it's good that you realize that."

Earl Parker stroked his beard and said calmly.

"Derrick, our alliance is a whole. What you do in the future must be discussed with everyone, and you must get the support of the majority before taking action."

"Yes, Uncle Parker, I will definitely remember your words firmly."

Seeing Dalrick's resignation, Price Parker was relieved, he was afraid that this young man would be arrogant and bully everyone, and make the scene out of control.

This time against Maltz Kent, the power of the Heller family is indispensable. He also complained in his heart about Derrick's unauthorized actions, but he was afraid of arousing his rebellious psychology, so he wanted to avoid talking about it at the meeting. Talk to him privately after the meeting. But I didn't expect that someone would take the initiative to bring up this matter. Fortunately, Derrick took the initiative to admit his mistake. This is really great.

Earl Parker changed the topic: "Then, how did you break through?"

Derrick replied: "Speaking of this, I have to thank the Arda army that just arrived today! It was they who repelled the pursuers of the Kent family."

Hearing what he said, everyone present suspected that their ears had misheard. When Derrick came back, there was still a knight team of more than 100 people, so the Kent family must have more pursuers than them, right? The unstoppable pursuit of the knights of the Heller family actually let the Arda people solve it?

Derrick stood up and bowed to Bryce and Joyce first, which made them panic and stood up quickly. A high-ranking nobleman bowed to them, and they had never imagined such a scene since they were young.

Then Derrick recounted the battle in detail.

The more people present, the more they heard it, the more they felt incredible. What "Fire Crossbow" and "Thunder Hammer", do these weapons really exist? And the power is the same as in the legend.

But they still chose to believe that even if they were saved by the Ardas, Derrick didn't need to brag about them.

"It's incredible, can we have a tour of this weapon?"

Earl Parker's eyes widened, and he asked what most people were thinking.

Bryce and Joyce looked at each other, and the commander of the First Infantry Battalion stood up and said, "Of course, my lords, but we have to find an open place first."

Since it is a coordinated operation, there is no need to hide it too much. It is still necessary to let friendly troops understand the effectiveness of their weapons, otherwise how can they fight together.

In the open space to the north of the coalition garrison, the sound of gunfire shook the sky, artillery roared, and the air was filled with choking gunpowder smoke.

Bryce arranged for a company of infantry and a battery to demonstrate the legendary "Firebolt" and "Thunder Hammer" for the generals of the coalition forces.

A row of humanoid targets for soldiers to practice their swords were beaten to pieces by them.

"The sharp weapon of the magic weapon, the sharp weapon of the magic weapon!"

The people present sighed again and again, not to mention the great power, just this momentum can scare away a large group of people.

Derrick couldn't take his eyes off even more. Although he had seen the battle of Arda's army before, the distance was still far away at that time. After watching it closely now, the feeling is completely different from before.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Bryce shrugged his shoulders to Joyce. Now besides porcelain and cans, Arda has another thing that others will miss.

But they are fearless, and the standing army of more than 2,000 people, plus thousands of militiamen trained in basic military skills, gave them confidence.

want it? If you have the ability, come and grab it!

Sure enough, many people expressed their willingness to buy immediately.

"I'm sorry, my lords, this is not something we can decide. If you really want to buy it, please go to Lake Town to find Earl Greyman."

Bryce shook his head, throwing the trouble on Paul.

In fact, Huxin Town has discussed the issue of whether to sell firearms to the outside world many times. After all, selling weapons is definitely a profitable industry, and selling firearms is the only one in the world.

With the simple structure of the current musket and cannon, once it is obtained by others, it is very easy to imitate it. It is better to earn a lot of money before others imitate it, and take advantage of the technical advantages to establish "original authentic products with high quality" Reliable" reputation, and then use the money earned to invest in the research and development of new technologies.

The cycle goes back and forth, always maintaining the technical advantage, and walking in front of others.

To reduce the threat of obtaining firearms from the outside world, the only thing that is relatively easy to control is the formula of gunpowder~www.mtlnovel.com~ Guns and cannons without gunpowder are just a pile of scrap iron. There is an ancient species in this world called "hellfire" "The magical weapon of ", because the secrecy work was done too well, it was lost in the end...

The result of the discussion on the sale of firearms in Huxin Town is always "after establishing an absolute military advantage in the Northwest Gulf, choose an appropriate time to sell firearms", but this "appropriate time" is always postponed again and again.

But until the right time comes, potential customers can be whetted.

After asking for it to no avail, Derrick asked anxiously, "Then can I try the 'Fire Crossbow' with my own hands?"

"Of course, Master Heller, you can use my short one. In fact, we named them 'guns', and the big ones are called 'cannons'."

Bryce graciously drew his pistol, loaded it and handed it to him.

"Ha! Thanks."

Derrick took the musket with an excited expression on his face, anxious like a child getting a new toy.

"Oh! Just be careful, don't point it at your own people."

Hearing Bryce's reminder, the people around dispersed with a cry of surprise and moved away from Derrick. Only then did they remember that the thing in Master Heller's hand could kill someone.

"Don't worry!"

Following Bryce's instructions, Derrick pointed the pistol at the humanoid target in front of him, and then pulled the trigger.

"bump!"

Gunshots sounded, and the humanoid target in front was hit with sawdust flying.

"That's the feeling! That's the feeling!"

Derrick had a happy face, feeling the wonderful feeling of slight numbness in his hand, while touching the pistol fondly.

"I want to try too!"

"Give me a try first!"

The onlookers rushed over together, scrambling to make requests.
