Chapter 438: The Snake Spirit Reappears
"Open the reward package.
Lin Chen glanced at Di Renjie who was absorbed in the autopsy.
When he had nothing to do, he opened the reward package he had received from Ping'er.
[The package has been opened]
[Obtained 300,000 taels of silver]
[Obtained 1,000 Spanish flintlock muskets]
[Obtained a rare item: Hundred Phoenix Gold Hairpin]
[Obtained blast furnace steel forging technology]
[Ding, Hundred Flowers Collection: Second Volume of the Twelve Hairpins of Jinling: Ping'er]
After Lin Chen saw the rewards from the gift package, his expression was not How many changes.
Unlike before, he no longer feels much about ordinary rewards.
But this Hundred Flowers Book.
Lin Chen felt that this thing was a replica of the list of the Twelve Beauties of Jinling.
Now he really included a few people.
Except for Qingwen and Xiangling who have not been opened in the Lin Mansion.
Counting Qin Keqing, Xiren, Wang Xifeng, Ping'er, and Jia Yuanchun, they are all listed in the Twelve Beauties and the supplementary book.
As for the other members of the Golden Hairpin in the Jia Mansion, he planned to let nature take its course.
Back to Rewards.
Although 300,000 taels of silver is not much, it can make up for Lin Chen's consumption in the two secret realms during this period.
I have to say.
They are really a master and servant, and even the rewards are similar to Wang Xifeng.
Wang Xifeng's reward package also opened a thousand of these Spanish flintlock muskets.
It is still in Lin Chen's system backpack and has not been taken out for use.
The reason is simple.
Compared with the matchlock gun, the flintlock musket is an advanced version of firearms.
In the ordinary ancient world, Lin Chen can rely on it to flatten the barbarians, and maybe he can start the Age of Exploration in advance.
However, in this comprehensive martial arts world, it is a bit difficult.
Not to mention that outside the Li Tang sea borders, the Western Ansa people have already started the great voyage and have begun colonization in Southeast Asia.
Compared with the weak industrial capacity of the Li Tang, if this flintlock musket is obtained by the Western colonists, it will be a big trouble.
On the other hand, there is no need to worry about the matchlock gun.
"Maybe I can talk to Li Zhao about this gang of Western robbers. "
After all, the benefits that colonization can bring are too exaggerated, but Shenzhou has always been a land power country and has really little interest in exploring the ocean.
Before seeing the actual benefits, Li Zhao and the important officials in the court would probably not take this matter too seriously.
So Lin Chen intended to integrate coastal maritime trade a long time ago to bring a little free trade shock to Li Zhao.
Of course.
Lin Chen was not qualified to get involved in this matter before, but now he is.
"Let's talk about it later. "
Lin Chen rubbed his brows with a headache.
There are too many things to do, but too little time.
Now he understands what it means to wish to break a quarter of an hour into two halves.
[Rare Item: Hundred Phoenix Gold Hairpin]
[Introduction: A gold hairpin containing a trace of the origin of Phoenix Fire, which can increase the speed of women's cultivation, and there is a very small probability of cultivating a trace of the origin of Phoenix Fire for their use]
What a good thing!
Lin Chen looked at the introduction of the Hundred Phoenix Gold Hairpin, his eyes lit up, and then dispersed.
If it is not limited to gender, even he is a little tempted by this thing.
"But... this thing can be given to Wan'er. ”
Shangguan Wan'er's icy body originally required a lot of extremely yang treasures.
Although she broke through the innate realm with the help of Lin Chen's great efforts in pure yang purification and no longer had to worry about her life, it would be difficult for her to break through the purple mansion.
But with this Hundred Phoenixes Golden Hairpin, Shangguan Wan'er's purple mansion road seems to have hope.
Besides.
He was quite interested in this so-called origin of the phoenix fire.
According to the system introduction, this fire should be very extraordinary.
Lin Chen's mind moved slightly, and he looked at the Hundred Phoenixes Golden Hairpin in the system backpack.
It must be said that the shape is really grand and dignified.
The craftsmanship alone is rare in the world to carve a hundred phoenixes on the exquisite golden hairpin that is only the size of a palm.
Lin Chen, who was amazed, retracted his gaze and turned to look at the last object.
Blast furnace forging technology.
After reading it, Lin Chen When he saw these four words, a strange color appeared on his face.
He was not unfamiliar with blast furnace forging steel, which was a common technology in time-travel novels.
However, when he came to Li Tang, he realized the difficulty of this matter.
Just kidding, the innovation of a technology is an extremely arduous task.
And he only knew the surface of blast furnace technology.
The distilled liquor technology still had many craftsmen found by Xue Ke to work together, and Lin Chen only needed to give a general direction.
But steelmaking technology is different. A slight mistake will make a furnace of molten iron scrapped.
Fortunately, this time a complete version of blast furnace forging steel technology was released, not only with a full set of parameters for building a blast furnace, but also with the admixture ratio of 100-forged steel, and even the quenching time was recorded in great detail.
"If there is 100-forged steel, maybe you can try to boil water. "Lin Chen touched his chin and muttered to himself.
Why had he never tried to let craftsmen manufacture matchlock guns on a large scale before?
The reason was that the iron forging technology in ancient times was immature.
Although a steel pipe can be used to manufacture firearms in modern times, it was a fantasy in ancient times.
If the barrel cannot withstand the chamber pressure of gunpowder, it will explode.
If the gunpowder ratio is reduced, what is the difference between the manufactured musket and the firework tube?
On the contrary, with more advanced steel forging technology, these can be considered for a try.
Of course, Lin Chen did not intend to present this technology to Li Zhao.
The reason is simple.
Li Tang called these technologies strange and lewd skills and did not pay much attention to them.
In this case, it is better to hand them over to Ziwei Chamber of Commerce for research.
You know, Xue Ke is different from ordinary merchants. Through contact with Lin Chen, he learned a lot of business knowledge far beyond this era.
At the same time, Xue Ke, under the instruction of Lin Chen, recruited a large number of craftsmen, and there were also many skilled workers recruited from the flood refugees.
In other words.
The industrial buds of Li Tang Jiuzhou are all on Ziwei Chamber of Commerce.
While Lin Chen was thinking, he heard Di Pangpang suddenly say "Huh".
He came back to his senses, collected his thoughts and turned to look at Di Renjie and the slightly rotten corpse.
Although the Dali Temple had done embalming for the second son of the Duke of Liu.
But at this time, less than half a month, the corpse had begun to rot.
Di Pangpang took out a handkerchief from his pocket with a solemn expression, and then carefully reached his hand under the scalp of the corpse to feel for something.
After a while, he seemed to touch something and gently took it out.
Lin Chen stared at the handkerchief in Di Pangpang's hand. When he saw the object wrapped inside, his eyes narrowed slightly.
It was a flying needle!
According to Zhuge Shenhou, the second son of the Liu family died of a flying needle piercing his skull, and then for some unknown reason, the injury broke out and he died suddenly.
"The coroner of the Dali Temple didn't even find the murder weapon on the deceased?" Lin Chen said in a deep voice.
Di Pangpang was embarrassed when he heard this, and he could only smile bitterly.
Lin Chen's eyes suddenly became sharp, staring at the flying needle.
At first, he didn't pay too much attention, but now he looked closely, the shape of this flying needle is really strange.
Although its size is no different from an embroidery needle, its shape is winding, like a poisonous snake!
Yes, it is a snake!
Lin Chen's heart suddenly moved, as if he thought of something.
The strange death of all the envoys of the Later Jin Dynasty in the past was also involved in a certain snake organization.
Could it be... another snake spirit?!
...
