Chapter 007

On Branlin Avenue in the heart of New York City, a seven-story building is hung with flashing neon lights that read the English signboard of Stark Industries.

Unlike the more than 100-story strange buildings of the 21st century, the current Stark Industries is still in its infancy. The founder, Howard, was only thirty-seven years old and had just resigned from the Academy of Sciences to start his own business.

The street is full of retro atmosphere, giving Jiang Yifu, who comes from the 21st century, the illusion of going back in time. The cars on the street are old-fashioned large-box sedans. The overall design is boxy, very old-fashioned and formal, and they completely lack the streamlined beauty of later cars.

‘Hello, I’m looking for Mr. Howard. Please inform me that Jiang Wanshan’s descendants have important matters to discuss. Regarding weapons cooperation, please be sure to convey it. Thank you, beautiful lady! ‘Jiang Yifu pretended to be a good boy and talked to the sweet-looking lady at the front desk on the first floor.

‘Okay, wait a minute, what’s your name? ‘The sweet-looking receptionist responded enthusiastically. It’s not easy to find a job now. If she were an ordinary person, she wouldn’t talk to him. But the other person is a handsome boy, so the first impression is different. Besides, it’s still conveying the wishes of the elders. It’s probably a microphone.

‘Jiang Yifu, please excuse me, my beautiful sister. ‘The mouth is still very sweet. Only those who talk to people and talk to ghosts can enjoy it. In later generations, many consumers who came to Guangdong lost themselves in the shouts of handsome boys and girls from the shopping guides, and willingly took out the golden money in their pockets!

The front desk lady picked up the hand-crank phone and called the boss Howard, ‘Hello, boss, there is a boy named Jiang Yifu, the child of Mr. Jiang Wanshan, who said he wants to discuss weapons cooperation with you. Howard

, who was flirting with his secretary, was just about to take the next step. Unexpectedly, the phone on the desk suddenly rang at this time. The ringing woke up the obsessed secretary, who ran out shyly with a red face.

‘Damn it, if you don’t give me a reasonable explanation, I’ll let you know how the most outstanding engineer in the United States put you out of a job! Howard was a little annoyed that his good things were interrupted and roared angrily, seeming very dissatisfied.

‘What, Jiang Yifu, I haven’t heard of it. Well, wait, what did you say, Jiang Wanshan!! Isn’t that old stubborn man dead? Well, weapons cooperation? Let me think. Oh, I remember, Ive, that little scientist who likes to blow himself up!! Haha, ask him to come up! ‘

Howard seemed to have thought of the previous news and news. After all, he would not remember a child’s name because of his romantic nature. If it weren’t for Jiang Wanshan, a colleague he had worked with before, who is a famous old stubborn, and his scientific nerd. Son, an experimental maniac who burned down and blew up houses at every turn, Howard really couldn’t remember him!

The receptionist at the front desk breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she didn’t get into any trouble. She seemed to have interrupted the boss’s good work just now!! Howard’s romantic and lustful personality is well known. Smiling at Jiang Yifu who was still waiting, he said,”Mr. Jiang, please come this way!” ‘My right hand made an inviting gesture.

Through the traditional retro elevator, Jiang Yifu arrived at the top of the seventh floor. After waiting for a few minutes, I finally entered the office. The first thing I saw was a middle-aged man with two iconic beards and a frivolous look. He gave people a very evil temperament and easily attracted the favor of women. No wonder he could. He is a romantic man, and he is indeed a man with some capital.

‘Oh, little one, you are the one who came to me, right? You seem to be doing fine. It’s a miracle that the last explosion didn’t blow you up. Tell me if you have any cooperation projects with me. If I’m just here to reminisce about old times, I’m sorry that I don’t have time to chat with you, an explosive genius.

God knows if you’re going to blow up my office! ‘Howard has a very American sense of humor, his verbal skills are also top-notch, and he also behaves a bit, well, how should I put it, neurotic! Yep! Neurotic. Perhaps scientists are more or less neurotic.

Jiang Yifu didn’t get angry. He knew that he wouldn’t be qualified to come in today if he didn’t rely on the face of his cheap father who he had never met and would never see again. It is true that Howard’s company is still in its infancy, but it is not something that ordinary people can see casually. If all cats and dogs could see Howard, his office would have been turned into a public toilet!

He took out a bunch of parts from his backpack and put them together step by step in front of Howard. Click! Wow! The sound of the collision of metal and birch wood, and the sound of buckles joining and fastening is so pleasant to the ear.

Howard shook his mustache and watched the boy in front of him assembling the firearm with interest. He is not afraid of any attacks at all, but is a little interested in the child of his stubborn colleague Jiang Wanshan. A scientist without quirks is not a real scientist. The fact that every experiment causes fire and explosion makes him a dangerous person in the eyes of others. Only knowledgeable people will understand each other’s strengths and weaknesses!

Bang! In less than half a minute, the AK47 was assembled. The assault rifle, about 80 centimeters long, was placed on the table.

‘Is this what you call weapons cooperation? Howard had a flash of interest. As an engineer, he had a deep knowledge of weapons. He could see the simple structure of this assault rifle at a glance, but he didn’t know how effective it would be. If it’s powerful enough, it can really blast most of today’s firearms!

‘This is the AK series weapon I designed. This one is the latest AK47. It is easy to assemble and maintain. It can adapt to special combat environments. Whether it is crossing a river or desert combat, it can still be used normally after being soaked in river water and baptized by wind and sand. There will be no jamming.

The 7.62mm bullet is used. As for whether it is true or false, you will know after trying it. The most important thing is that it is simple to produce, can be produced on a large scale, and is cheap. Jiang Yifu calmly introduced this epoch-making light weapon in the twentieth century.

Howard picked up the AK47 and fumbled around, ‘Follow me! ‘

The two came to the experimental shooting range on the first floor. When the surrounding staff saw their big boss appearing, they immediately greeted them.

Howard ignored it and asked his assistant to take the 7.62mm bullet and start the experiment. Single shot, continuous shot, close range firing, long range blocking.

Try everything. In terms of feel, it is indeed a good weapon. According to Jiang Yifu, just throw it into the pool. Pick it up again after five minutes.

Da da da!!! Pull the trigger and the bullet will still fire without any danger of exploding the chamber! The accuracy has not dropped much, and the jamming phenomenon has not appeared.

After firing more than two hundred rounds of ammunition, Howard put down the AK47. A trace of joy flashed in his eyes. With this weapon, he would be more confident in winning this quarter’s army order! ‘Very good, Jarvis, try it! ‘

Throwing the assault rifle to a middle-aged man who stood behind Howard at some point, his meticulous expression was very much like that of a British butler. After hearing the master’s order, he picked up the rifle and started experimenting.

Jiang Yifu didn’t speak from the beginning to the end, just watched quietly. Real gold is not afraid of fire. Although some parts of this gun were polished in a hardware store, the dimensions are standard. Therefore, in theory, the advantages of AK47 can be achieved. I don’t worry about this. I have also tested it.

Only if the weapons are good can the next negotiation be possible. If the goods are not good, then how about talking about a hammer, life and ideals?

Jarvis put down the rifle,”Sir, this rifle feels very good. The limited distance is about three hundred meters. Beyond three hundred meters, the sight will drop significantly.” In burst mode, the recoil is smaller than that of a light machine gun. Others require further experiments’

‘Great, Jarvis, keep testing the capabilities of this rifle. Ivor, right? Oh, I knew my eldest nephew Ivor was a genius. Come on, come to my office and have a chat. Howard excitedly patted Jiang Yifu on the shoulder, and before leaving, he didn’t forget to take advantage of him.

No matter how you look at the way he walks like a tiger, he looks a bit awkward! When they met for the first time, Ivory felt that like father, like son, just like Iron Man Tony, Howard as a father was not much better.
