The Black Duke of the Pirate

Therefore, before the new firearms are completely developed, we can only make improvements on the original muskets. However, the improved weapons can temporarily meet Reinhardt's current arms needs.

Because Reinhardt provided a lot of advanced ideas for the newly developed weapons, especially some knowledge that was inaccessible to the natives of this era, the progress of these research and development was getting slower and slower.

"There is progress, but we are currently encountering some problems." Cole answered first, looking at Reinhardt and then continued, "The new firearms idea provided by the president is very unconventional. It took Braunck more than half a year to finally understand it.

However, the problem currently encountered is the construction between the fire control module and the chamber module in the firearm, because it is currently impossible to allow the bullet to successfully enter the predetermined propelling track during the rotation of the runner after the impact of the firearm.

middle."

"Because they are modules that are interconnected as a whole, but they must be absolutely independent of each other."

"In other words, we can completely make the outside of the firearm, but we are still unable to complete a series of shooting actions." Brank, standing next to Cole, said simply.

Reinhardt nodded thoughtfully. Two years is a very short time for research and development. He is naturally prepared for this and does not expect to have a huge breakthrough in just two years.

.

However, he didn't understand firearms. The reason why he could provide them with new firearm design ideas was just to use some superficial knowledge in his past life memories to tell them what kind of firearms there were and what shooting levels they could achieve, so he

Relying on vague memory, I drew the simple appearance and structure.

It is precisely because of this that it took two years for Braunck and Cole to develop new weapons.

But even so, the design ideas proposed by Reinhart seemed to them both to be wild and imaginative. This gave them, especially Braunck, too many new ideas, as if

The door to the new world was suddenly opened, and it was discovered that all the gold and silver treasures inside were there. However, it may take a lifetime to take away even one ten thousandth of these gold and silver treasures.

Reinhardt was silent for a while, and finally said with a smile: "I don't know much about firearms, but if you need anything, you can tell Blatt directly. I will try my best to help you get anything in this world. As for the research and development process,

We encountered difficulties, and in the end it was only the two of you who could overcome them."

Seeing the two of them nodding their heads without any doubts, Reinhardt continued: "I will not impose some invisible pressure on you, let alone urge you to speed up the research and development progress, because I know that scientific research requires money and time.

.”

"I have never lacked patience, but since I am a core member of Reinhardt Works, it means I am a member of this big family. I have always advocated that everyone performs his or her duties, the division of labor is clear, and everyone has their own areas of expertise.

The ways of expressing value are also different.”

Having said this, Reinhard stopped.

Kohl and Braunck naturally understood that from the moment they joined the Reinhardt Working Society, they knew that every member of the Reinhardt Working Society must reflect their due value.

"Anubi, how is your arms deal going now?" Reinhardt asked another young man. Anubi replied: "Our improved weapons are very popular, except for Merlin.

In addition to the market we occupy, most of the market in Beihai has been eaten up by us."

Apparently the improved weapons are very popular in the North Sea, especially among pirate groups.

"The arms trade between the Grand Line and Shichibukai Crocodile has been successfully established."

The deal with Crocodile was naturally about arms. At first, Reinhardt personally intervened in this matter, but later he handed it over to Anubi. Now it seems that he has done a good job.

"In the past six months, according to the share of the brewery occupied by the revolutionary army, the due dividends have been transferred to food and arms and handed over to the revolutionary army. However, there is a request to increase the demand for food and arms, and they propose additional transactions.

.”

After listening to Anubi's words, Reinhardt naturally knew the reason.

Since the World Government's campaign against the Revolutionary Army reached its peak six months ago, the Revolutionary Army will have more and more demands for food and arms in the future. However, it is estimated that the Revolutionary Army will soon be unable to support it, so they are anxious to increase transactions.

.

"Then let's re-establish additional trading plans." Reinhardt was silent for a while. His connection with the Revolutionary Army is already very close, so it is better to maximize the benefits, and he will use the Revolutionary Army to do something in the future.

This is a major event that affects the world, so we still need to lay a solid foundation for transactions with the revolutionary army so that one day they will be unable to do without us.

"But I have one request." Thinking of this, Reinhard made another request.

Anubi listened quietly.

"The payment method for future transactions will all be changed to metal ore." Reinhardt said slowly. He believed that the Revolutionary Army must also be trying to find professionals who can independently develop and manufacture firearms, and these raw materials are the key to manufacturing firearms.

Half a month ago, he heard from Crocodile's news channel that the revolutionary army had taken over a country that produced metal ore.

"But...will the Revolutionary Army agree?" Anubi was a little worried. The Revolutionary Army would not trade these scarce resources for no reason.

"We are the active party in this matter. If they don't agree, we will directly pay the factory's dividends to the revolutionary army in the form of Bailey."

Reinhardt had full confidence in this matter. With the current situation of the Revolutionary Army, what they needed most was definitely weapons and food. No matter how much Bailey they had, they might not be able to use them.

The two discussed some more details, and then Reinhardt continued to communicate with the members of the working club for a long time in the hall, and finalized the plans for the working club in the near future.

After all the core members of the Reinhardt Work Society left, he ordered his guards to ask several ministers from the kingdom to come to see him. After the ministers reported, he systematically understood the current situation in the kingdom.

The last few people who came in, although they were not members of the Reinhardt Working Society, worked for Reinhardt, including the chief brewer of the brewery, the chief designer of Clock Port, the owner of the workshop, and the chief executive of the shipyard.

Shipbuilders, scientists in the steam research and development laboratory, etc.

Some of these people hold positions in the Kingdom of Porkaria, and some hold the title of person in charge of businesses belonging to Reinhardt. They all work for Reinhardt, so they cannot be confused with the ministers of the Kingdom of Porkaria, nor can they be confused with them.

Mixed up with core members of Reinhardt Works.

Although all the ministers of the kingdom were promoted by him, they are the leaders of important institutions in Porkarlia after all, so in order to maintain the long-term stability of Porkarlia, they need to be distinguished based on their status.

After listening to the report, Reinhardt briefly made some suggestions, but by the time these things were done, the night was already very late.
