Chapter 156 Second Generation Pneumatic Cannon

With the beginning of the planning and establishment of Hongsha City, everything inside the city began to evacuate. The original manors were moved away, either to the sides of the river in the east or outside Hongsha Ridge.

Inside, only a few were retained to temporarily ensure the food problem of the people inside the city.

Hongsha Ridge now has a population of 200,000, but the original Hongsha Town did not have that many. This place has only 50,000 people, which is actually quite a lot.

The rest of the population is in the new territory outside. There are still many jujube trees growing there, so they don't need to worry about food. Inside, the bases that produce Hongsha steel have also evacuated the original land of Hongsha Ridge and all placed on Hongshi Mountain. The iron content of this place is the highest among all areas.

Plant a batch of iron bark trees here, and these iron bark trees will not absorb all the surrounding iron ore in the next hundred years. In other words, in the next hundred years, it is their job to pick up some iron sheets here every day.

The only thing that made Chi Nan dissatisfied was the road he had just built. The road is wide and convenient, and many people have gradually accepted and used it. But this road is still not very good.

There are no various thin lines in the center, no various rule signs, and no traffic rules, because they are not used now. But there are no traffic lights, which makes Chi Nan depressed. But he has no choice, the traffic lights are really not used now. "Hey, I hope they won't get used to not obeying traffic rules in the future."

Chi Nan looked at the pedestrians coming and going, those who completely ignored the side of the road and walked around. There were people and a small number of carriages mixed together. If there were more vehicles in the future, there would be car accidents every day.

For the layout of the city, Chi Nan could only continue to work hard. Now the residential area has begun to grow, but the commercial area along the road and the future handicraft workshop area need to continue to be planned.

Chi Nan didn't want them to build houses here by themselves. What he wanted was for everyone to use the tree houses they planted. But the tree house models of shops and other workshops are obviously not the same as those of residential houses.

Chi Nan himself did not plan to develop industry, so he had to find more jobs for the civilians. Some of these jobs were based on his own plants, and some were based on other aspects, and even the service industry. In short, there were a lot of things to do next, but only he understood these things.

"As for the garbage can, it seems that we need to find a plant with strong digestion ability." Chi Nan looked at the messy garbage on both sides of the road and felt even more headache. He didn't want his territory to become a garbage dump.

While Chi Nan was busy, the nobles on the front line came to the outside of Hongshaling with packhorses. After such a long time, these people finally got the qualification to buy pneumatic cannons.

Seeing them, Lao Muka ordered his men to push the pneumatic cannons over.

"Hey, what's going on? Why are these pneumatic cannons different from the ones we use?" Seeing these different pneumatic cannons, the nobles became anxious all of a sudden.

Isn't it? This is not a cheap thing, especially in large quantities. Generally speaking, this pneumatic cannon is the same as the previous one, but why is there a huge flower bud on the back, and why is there a gap in the magazine where the shells grow below. Could it be that these are all defective products?

Old Muka was not surprised at all. After everyone calmed down, he said: "My lords, we at Hongshaling dare not deceive you. To be honest, this is the second generation of pneumatic cannon."

Pointing to the gap below, Old Muka introduced: "Do you see that place? That's where the shells are rejected. In the past, we could only store five shells. Now when more than five shells grow, new shells will be automatically rejected from that place. We can collect them and use them later."

Then, Old Muka pointed to the flower bud above and said: "Do you see that? That's where the shells are stored. After the five shells are used up, you can put the shells in from above and they will be swallowed."

"This is an improvement made by our lords after they found that everyone was working hard to load the shells. It will be much easier to use the pneumatic cannon in the future."

Many nobles felt blushing. That large wooden stick, and the shells stuffed into it from the front, often damage the pneumatic cannon, resulting in a decrease in the service life of the pneumatic cannon. This is all done by them.

And the nobles above, for their own military merits, do not prohibit this behavior. In their opinion, spending some gold dragons can make them get more military merits, so they don't care.

"But there is such a thing above, won't it explode? We have experience with so many explosions."

Well, this explosion has given us more experience. Old Muka couldn't help but roll his eyelids. What kind of destruction did these guys do to the pneumatic cannon. It was originally able to be used for ten years, but how come it feels in their hands that it can't even be used for two years. But it doesn't matter, buy it again when it's broken, this business is really good.

"Don't worry, this is specially reinforced by our lord, and there will be no problem with the explosion of other places." Chi Nan certainly won't make such a mistake, otherwise why would he make this thing.

This thing is actually improved by fusion of leucopsis. This is a large leucopsis head, but it has no digestion ability and will not attack actively. The two tough and soft wood materials below grow together, and the strength is at least twice that of the surrounding gun barrels. There will be no problem no matter how you look at it.

"Then what about the price? We have obtained the purchase qualification, and the golden dragons have been sent to the imperial capital."

Old Muka said without hesitation: "Our lord said that it is still 100 golden dragons. Even if it is the second generation, it is the same price. Our products are better, but we will not increase the price. In the future, when there are new products, they will follow this."

Chi Nan doesn't care whether those who have already purchased the pneumatic cannon will be dissatisfied, because they are originally discussing the first generation of pneumatic cannons. Now that they have taken the initiative to make it better, they have not suffered any loss and can't say anything.

Even if they come to trouble themselves, at most they can negotiate with the condition of raising the price of the new pneumatic cannon. I believe they will give up in the end. But now, these nobles are feeling unusually excited.
