Mu Yuan smiled and said,
"Wood Spirit, take me outside the town to test the gun. I've never fired a gun in my life."
Mu Ling nodded and helped Mu Yuan up.
After Mu Yuan stood up, he smiled and pushed the wood spirit's hand away.
"I'm not that weak."
As he spoke, he walked in front.
Soon, Mu Yuan followed the Wood Spirit to the outskirts. The two of them brought a platoon of soldiers with them. The entire An Min Town now knew that Mu Yuan had recovered. Not only that, but he also had a powerful army in his hands. The security guards and the rebellious servants were taken care of by this army in less than a round.
Lin Yousan was dead, and so were all his brothers. They knew that Anmin Town would be ruled by Muyuan in the future, because this was the current situation in this period. Whoever could control the town or county would rule here.
However, Mu Yuan hadn't done anything yet, but they were still very uncertain.
I didn't know that Mu Yuan was different from Lin Yousi.
However, these wood elements don't care
Now, he and the wood spirit had arrived at a mountain forest in the suburbs.
He held the VZ24 rifle that the wood spirit had taught him. At first, the wood spirit explained to Mu Yuan about the things to take note of for about half an hour.
He was afraid that Mu Yuan would make a mistake.
After figuring out everything, Mu Yuan pulled the trigger at a tree 50 meters away.
"Bang ~"
The first time he fired, the huge recoil made Mu Yuan's shoulder hurt.
However, Mu Yuan didn't care. Instead, he smiled and said,
"The charm of a weapon is truly irresistible."
He didn't look to see if he had hit the target. He then fired the remaining four bullets in the magazine at the surrounding trees.
After firing about 50 rounds, Mu Yuan got used to the rifle in his hand. At least he would not miss the target.
He should be able to hit someone who is not moving very fast at a distance of 50 meters
However, Mu Yuan was just having fun. If he really went to the battlefield, the wood spirit probably wouldn't let him go.
After firing 50 bullets, Mu Yuan managed to kill a rabbit. There were quite a lot of wild animals in the forest during this period.
On the way back, Mu Yuan was a little curious and asked,
"Wood Spirit, you know everything, right?”
Muyuan had always been curious.
What use does everything have to him now?
The wood spirit said with a serious expression,
"Yes, Commander. As long as it's in this world, I'm proficient in all the skills and knowledge of this era."
Mu Yuan looked at the rifle in his hand and said,
"Then can you make guns? We don't have many firearms now."
Mu Yuan knew that it was not easy to buy firearms in Kangyuan at this time because the place was surrounded on all sides. It was difficult to transport weapons in. Even if there were, they were only old barrels made in Hanyang.
Mu Yuan was not interested in this kind of rifle. He had also used the Hanyang rifle just now. Compared to the VZ24 rifle, the difference was too big.
Wood Spirit thought for a moment and smiled.
"It depends on whether you want to mass produce it or produce it in small batches. If it's in small batches, I can produce a whole set of simple and crude gun production equipment in a month. If it's by myself, I can probably produce two rifles of this quality in a day."
Mu Yuan asked curiously,
"Doesn't the production of firearms require seamless steel pipes? Also, the quality of the steel must be very high. How can you guarantee that the gun produced can reach the level of this gun?”
The wood spirit wasn't worried at all. Instead, she smiled and said,
" Commander, I said that I'm proficient in everything. I can design and manufacture steel smelting equipment by myself. I can manufacture steel smelting equipment with a daily output of one ton. I can guarantee that the standard of this equipment is very high. It can reach the top of this era. The premise is that you have to give me some help. I don't need any high-skilled workers. I just need some labor, blacksmiths, and masons."
Mu Yuan looked at Wood Spirit with a surprised expression. He was a little surprised by this guy.
He had always felt that firearms were a highly integrated industry and that it was difficult to do. However, in the eyes of the wood spirits, they could produce rifles in a month?
Mu Yuan actually didn't quite believe it.
But when he thought about it
"Then how much money would it take to produce rifles in small batches?”
Mu Yuan actually started to have thoughts.
However, he knew that the industrial investment was very high. It could easily cost tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of silver dollars.
Mu Yuan felt that it would take at least a million silver dollars to do this.
However, the wood spirit smiled and said,
"Commander, I only need 10,000 silver coins."
And with a confident look on his face
Mu Yuan frowned and said,
"Wood Spirit, ten thousand silver coins isn't enough, right? Although I don't know how much the industry needs to invest, I also know that this amount is definitely not enough to make guns.”
The wood spirit no longer had the smile from before. Instead, it said seriously,
" Commander, please believe in my loyalty."
Mu Yuan was still a little shocked in his heart as he muttered to himself,
"Ten thousand silver coins, ten thousand silver coins, ten thousand silver coins to make a spear? Are you sure you're not joking?"
However, he knew that the wood spirit would not lie to him. Moreover, the system had also said that the wood spirit was an all-rounded talent. He did not know how it was all-rounded, but just the words of the wood spirit alone made Mu Yuan feel a little scared.
Creating all the machinery and equipment needed to produce firearms in a month, although it was only a small batch production, Mu Yuan still felt that it was very scary.
How was this an all-rounded talent? This was a super talent!
A talent that is impossible to exist in this world
Mu Yuan took a deep breath and probed.
"What if I want to mass produce it?”
Wood Spirit frowned at this question. This was the first time Mu Yuan had seen him frown at such a question.
Mu Yuan asked.
"Is it very difficult?"
The wood spirit nodded and said,
"Commander, I can create all the machinery and equipment needed to manufacture firearms, and even expand the production line. However, there is a very critical problem. Mass production of firearms requires a large number of technicians. This…"
Wood Spirit did not say it out loud, but Mu Yuan knew that this was what Mu Yuan lacked. There were more than 3000 people in Anmin Town, and there were only about 7000 people in the surrounding villages. It was not a problem to find dozens of blacksmiths and masons, and their skills were not bad. However, it was impossible to find hundreds or even thousands of mechanics who could operate machine tools.
Mu Yuan could only smile bitterly.
"That's still impossible. You need a lot of manpower to expand the production line, right?"
Wood Spirit said.
"I need at least 1,000 skilled workers. However, I can train these workers in a short period of time. I can make them operate in two months and help me. However, if I want to produce and process them, I need at least a year's time. This is the shortest time. I also need the workers to be literate."
Mu Yuan smiled bitterly again. How could there be seven hundred literate people in the entire An Min Town?
Needless to say, Mu Yuan also knew that there wasn't.
Throughout the Second World War, women in Western countries could take up their posts with simple training because they had a certain level of education. However, it was too difficult to find someone who had a certain level of education in Anmin Town, even if they had attended a private school.
However, Mu Yuan smiled and said,
"It's fine. Just make the production equipment first and slowly cultivate it. I'll find you someone who can read. In this year, you don't need to lead the army anymore. Just make the production machinery for guns and ammunition. Also, think about how to make some money for me. Without money, everything is useless."
The wood spirit smiled and said,
" Alright, Commander. As long as you can find me 1,000 literate people, I can give you 1,000 technicians in a year."
