After chatting and drinking until midnight, the number of customers in Wazi gradually became less and less. Seeing that Sun Lei and others had almost finished drinking wine on the table, the waiter came over and asked if he wanted more. Qinbei Pavilion
Ling Zhen naturally knew that the waiter came here to ask for money for the drinks, but he was penniless now and felt a little embarrassed for a moment. He didn't know how to deal with it. How could he get along with this treat on credit? It’s impossible for the store owner to agree.
"A few more jars and a table of dishes!"
Sun Lei took out a piece of silver and handed it over to help Ling Zhen out. He could see that Ling was short of money.
"The taste of this wine is a bit off. Bring some good wine! If you don't have any, go to the inner city to get some!"
Lu Zhishen looked at the waiter and said, he was drinking happily and this guy came to ask for money, but he really didn't look at him.
"Brother, this was originally my invitation to you, but..."
Ling Zhen said with some embarrassment.
"Meeting is fate, drinking is it!"
Sun Lei raised his wine bowl and interrupted Ling Zhen's words with a smile. There were some things that didn't need to be said.
"By the way, brother Ling Zhen, are you going back to Jiazhangku later?"
After drinking a few more bowls, Sun Lei looked at Ling Zhen and asked.
"Hey, I was originally a soldier from Yanling. Because I was proficient in firearms, I was transferred to Tokyo. I worked in Jia Zhan Ku and became a deputy gunner. If I don't go back, I will have nowhere to go."
Ling Zhen said helplessly that although he had caused trouble, he could only go back to receive the punishment.
"Brother Ling Zhen, my place is a good place to go. As long as you go there, you can study firearms as much as you want. Money is not a problem at all. You will definitely be able to display your talents, promote firearms, and shock the world. Your name will also be famous along with firearms. Eternity.”
Upon seeing this, Sun Lei sent out an invitation. If Ling Zhen did well in the army, there was no way he could poach him. Although Ling Zhen looked young, he could tell that he had some backbone and was not the kind of person who would give in under intimidation. .
"Can you manage enough money? Brother, it's not that I don't believe it. This research on firearms and gunpowder requires a huge amount of money. The more you go into the depth of research, the more expensive it becomes. This is not something ordinary people can afford."
"Furthermore, firearms and gunpowder are also controlled by the imperial court. For most people, it is a capital crime. The most they can do is make firecrackers."
Ling Zhen was a little excited at first, but then he shook his head again. Gunpowder and firearms are not things that the common people can possess. What he wants to study is not firecrackers. What he wants to study is a big killer weapon on the battlefield. This It was destined that he could only stay in the armory, even if his life was not going well.
"Haha, brother Ling Zhen is overly worried. Why do people like you need to study things like firecrackers? Isn't that overkill? What I want is a sharp weapon that can knock down a city gate tower with one shot!"
Sun Lei smiled and pointed at the Suzaku Gate not far away. This is the south gate of the inner city of Tokyo and the largest gate in the inner city. What he wants is at least the kind of Italian cannon that Li Yunlong used to destroy Ping An City. He doesn't like guns.
"Afraid of the Suzaku Gate?"
The wine bowl that Ling Zhen was holding almost overturned. He never dreamed that the artillery could be so powerful. That was the Suzaku Gate! The entire city gate tower is only two hundred paces wide. How powerful would it be to destroy it with one shot? Pushing several large carts of gunpowder might not be enough.
"Well, I do have a secret recipe for gunpowder. If you are willing, I can give it to you. It will definitely be much more powerful than what you experimented with today."
Sun Lei whispered to Ling Zhen with a mysterious look on his face. If he wanted to conquer a technical talent like Ling Zhen, it would definitely not be possible to just draw a pie or throw money at him. He would have to get some hard goods that interest him.
"Much bigger? How big?"
Ling Zhen asked excitedly. At this time, his face was filled with ecstasy, and there was nothing else in his eyes except gunpowder.
"At least several times more!"
Sun Lei said with a smile and his words were very conservative.
"Several times! Impossible!"
Ling Zhen stood up with a shocked look on his face. He had been studying for more than a year and had only increased his power by 20%. The man in front of him actually said that it could be increased several times. How could he believe it? No one in the Song Dynasty knew gunpowder better than him.
"Brother Ling Zhen, it doesn't have to be like this. I dare to say so and I am sure of it!"
Sun Lei smiled and motioned for Ling Zhen to sit down.
"Brother, if this is true, Ling Zhen is willing to follow you and become your disciple, but if it is false, don't blame Ling Zhen for falling out!"
Ling Zhen sat down and looked at Sun Lei seriously and said, "You can joke about other things, but gunpowder can never be joked about here."
"Hehe, there is no need to become a disciple. If you go to my place, we are all brothers. From now on, my brother will protect you!"
Sun Lei said confidently.
"Who dares to be a brother?"
Ling Zhen saw this and asked. The confidence of the person in front of him made him believe it. Is there really someone in this world who knows more about gunpowder than he does?
"Liangshan Po Sun Lei!"
Sun Lei said with a smile.
"Liangshan Po Sun Lei? Monkey King Sun Lei! Beat that Gao Yanei to death!"
Ling Zhen was so frightened that he couldn't sit still and was about to turn over and fall. Fortunately, Shi Qian quickly caught him with his hands and feet.
"Does anyone in Tokyo dare to impersonate my brother's name?"
Shi Qian looked at Ling Zhen and asked with a smile.
"No! Absolutely not!"
Ling Zhen's head shook like a rattle. Who in Tokyo would dare to impersonate the Monkey King Sun Lei? What's the difference between that and seeking death?
Ling Zhen looked at Sun Lei who was smiling and drinking in surprise. This harmless image was far different from the rumors. The Tokyo officials said that Sun Lei was a ferocious demon who killed people without blinking an eye.
"I don't want to lie to you. We, Liangshanbo, are currently short of an artilleryman. I see that my brother is extremely talented and I am determined to recruit him. With Brother Ling Zhen's talent, it is really overkill and underutilized to stay in this armory. It is better to cast a pearl behind the scenes." Go to Liangshan and I will definitely let my brothers show their talents."
Sun Lei smiled and formally invited.
Ling Zhen looked at Sun Lei and hesitated for a while. Sun Lei's magnanimity and sincerity really moved him, but it was still hard for him to accept that he had to go from being a deputy gunner in the army to join a Jianghu cottage.
"I think you are also a straightforward man. Why are you being insulted in Jiazhangku? It is not as good as going to Liangshan to do justice for heaven and be free and happy!"
Lu Zhishen looked at Ling Zhen and said.
"Thank you for the invitation, brother. I am obsessed with the art of gunpowder. As long as what I just said is true, I will follow you to the death!"
Ling Zhen looked at Sun Lei and said with a serious face, he didn't care about anything else, he only cared about the secret recipe of gunpowder that Sun Lei mentioned.
"Brother Ling Zhen, don't worry, I, Sun Lei, never tell lies!"
Sun Lei poured a round of wine with a smile, raised the wine bowl and said with a smile.
"My brother is famous all over the world, brother Ling Zhen can rest assured."
Shi Qian also smiled and raised his wine bowl. There was no need to doubt Sun Lei's credibility.
"Brother, do you really understand this?"
Lu Zhishen raised his wine bowl and looked at Sun Lei. It wasn't that he didn't believe Sun Lei, but he was surprised. Sun Lei didn't like to study or study on weekdays. Besides practicing martial arts and drinking, his favorite thing was visiting brothels. Sun Lei, who had such advanced knowledge as gunpowder, was also confident. Abnormal, and conclusive.
"Hey, how else can I be a brother?"
Sun Lei chuckled. Gunpowder is not difficult at all. He is good at chemistry. His favorite thing about studying in his previous life was taking chemistry classes and doing various experiments. What's so difficult about black powder?
