Chapter 17: Assassinate
They wandered around. Except for Uncle Zhang, everyone was physically strong. They watched Yuegang, ate local delicacies, bought rouge gouache for Shuang'er, Northeast wild ginseng for Uncle Zhang, and bought them for the elders such as Chen Zhongji. Had good tea.
What surprised Yan Changwu was that Yuegang used silver dollars extensively!
The "double-pillar" silver dollar made by Spain in the colonies of South America, circulated earlier and almost spread all over the world. It flowed into China during the Ming and Wanli years, and is now popular in Yuegang. If you use Chinese silver, you will be OUT.
Money is money. No matter where it comes from, silver dollars are of stable quality, standard production, accurate weight, and moderate value. It also has a variety of supporting standard coins that can be used for larger or smaller value transactions and change , And soon became popular in the circulation market and replaced the traditional silver ingots of the Ming Dynasty.
Silver ingots are very inconvenient to use. Take a large ingot of silver and cut a piece with scissors according to the price of the goods and commodities. After weighing it, it will be flattened even if there are errors. It is inconvenient and very inaccurate!
Moreover, silver ingots are refined, melted, and processed in different workshops. It is difficult to say that the impurities are unified. Some unscrupulous merchants add things that God knows, and they can think of them with their butts.
Silver dollar is better than silver ingot, which is better and worse at a glance. So starting from southern Fujian, in our country’s private valuation and trading, silver ingots were eliminated by silver dollars.
In fact, the silver that the two silver accounts are going to give to Yan Changwu shows that it is a silver dollar!
"We will use silver dollars in coinage in the future, as well as daily use, but still use silver dollars!" Yan Changwu secretly made up his mind and decided to use those silver dollars to circulate in Beigang to pay civil servants and soldiers' salaries and purchases. The silver is also ready to be cast into silver dollars by itself.
Hey, there are so many places to worry about!
...
They have been using the carriage of Ruixing Bank to return to the entrance of the Sihai Inn, and began to unload and get off the car. Several buddies and porters who wanted to get the silver came up to help.
Jie, Yan Changwu has not yet fully entered the role of "I am a nobleman" (not dealing with inferior people), a little bit of compassion, no refusal, let them help, so that they can get rewards.
The scene was a bit chaotic. Among them was a young man with a healthy physique, a square face and a docker's short shirt. He picked up a large box and approached Yan Changwu's position. He muttered and seemed to be asking: " Where is this box?"
actually let him get close to Yan Changwu's side!
The security forces are not aware of it!
Things happened suddenly. He threw the box on the ground and magically conjured a wrist-knife knife. It was not very long. The key was that the knife brought out a fishy wind and pierced Yan Changwu's throat!
Yan Changwu is not a superman after all. He watched the knife stabbing at himself, feeling helpless, his head was blank: "No, labor and capital must return!"
Shuang'er let out a hoarse scream!
Uncle Zhang's hands and feet trembled, and his heart was splitting!
Other people and so on, never dreamed that such terrible things would happen in front of him, and the sharp knife went to his master!
The gust of wind knows the strong grass. At the moment of the lightning fire, Shui Shen stood behind Yan Changwu, without thinking, a stride rushed forward, blocking the sharp knife!
The opponent's target was not him, so a blood mark was drawn on his arm, and then the water was hit hard, and the assassin had already been knocked out three steps away.
The assassin knew that he had lost his best time, and immediately turned and ran!
At this time, people realized that someone was chasing the assassin, but the assassin started fast and had a high speed, and no one could catch him.
But bullets can!
Shui Qian saw that the master almost died, and the brother was hit by the knife, and immediately took out a fire system from the bag in his hand!
Flintlock style, the ammunition has been loaded.
aimed at the assassin, the muzzle moved down, triggering the trigger!
"Boom!" After a loud bang, the assassin staggered and was shot in the back of his right thigh!
Speaking of the power of black powder pellets, it’s okay for someone to hit hundreds of iron-sand pellets, but the bullets fired in shallow water are not strange.
It is inlaid with lead **** on the iron beads. When it hits the human body, the lead and iron beads are separated. The lead **** are pressed into a mushroom shape by the human muscles, which expands, releases energy rapidly, expands the wound outlet, and makes the warhead resemble an explosion. The wounding effect of the warhead!
is actually a dum bomb!
But it is not as powerful as the dam bomb, because the dam bomb pushed by the yellow explosive has a large kinetic energy, and a dozen is a big wound, resulting in a trumpet-shaped or gourd-shaped cavity in the human tissue, and the wound area can reach hundreds of times the cross-sectional area of the projectile!
The weakened version of the dum bombs fired at shallow water is not so powerful. At most, the wound area is three or four times the cross section of the bullet. (I have tried it, and the pork is at most five times the cross section)
Needless to say, these bullets are Yan Changwu's masterpiece!
He has the knowledge of "Dum bullets", and he tried his best to strengthen the power of the black powder gun. It is effective when used to deal with unprotected people at close range. The stopping effect of the bullet is obvious (Stop effect: refers to the warhead that makes the enemy lose The role of resistance, for example, pointed warheads and round warheads, round warheads have a short range, but their stopping effect is better than pointed warheads, pointed warheads sometimes shoot through the human body, and the bullets pop out, but the human body can tolerate them).
The assassin was shot in the leg. It’s really not a problem to change to a normal projectile. There is a problem with the projectile. The problem is that the Dum bullet has a big hole in the leg. There are many blood vessels in this area, and the blood is like a spring!
ran two steps with one leg, and saw the person rushing towards him, the assassin had no choice but to stop, and his heart was as cool as the seawater of the moon harbor!
He also knows himself well, knowing that if he falls into the hands of a man, a terrible fate will await him!
So he raised his knife and prepared to wipe his neck, and then he heard someone yelling: "Everyone stop!"
what!
The fear of death and the yearning for life made the assassin look at Yan Changwu, and heard him anxiously: "I swear to Tianfei Empress, if you tell the messenger, I will let you go!"
Tianfei Empress, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Mazu!
Ming became the ancestor Yongle for seven years, and named her "protecting the country and protecting the people, Zhaoying Hongren Puji Tianfei"!
This sacred name is revered by people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait!
She is the **** of the sea, protects the country and protects the people, swears to her, if it can't be done, the consequences will be serious!
Yan Changwu swore, and the assassin believed it.
"Dang!" The knife was thrown to the ground by the assassin, and Yan Changwu's people swarmed up to capture him.
Yan Changwu ordered: "Don't make him embarrassing."
"Are you okay?" Shuang'er grabbed Yan Changwu's arm and swayed continuously.
"Master, are you okay!" Uncle Zhang asked anxiously.
"It's okay!" Yan Changwu said. (Shui Depth: I am the one who is in trouble!)
The poisonous knife was hit by the deep water, and the poison was very effective, and his face was covered with black air!
But he is very experienced with Shui Qian. Shui Qian took out a short knife and scratched it on the wound without hesitation. Then he washed the wound with a kettle to squeeze away the blood inside, but the depth of the water did not squeak.
The water in the kettle is salt water with a disinfectant effect!
Needless to say, the salt water is Yan Changwu's order.
"This is snake venom!" Uncle Zhang came over, picked up the knife and looked at it, and asked the assassin, "Is there an antidote?"
The assassin shook his head.
Uncle Zhang, however, immediately took the medicine box he was carrying, took out two pills from it, dissolved one with warm alcohol, put the wound on the wound, and took the other one orally. Soon, the water depth eased. Eventually nothing happened.
The medicine box is usually inconspicuous, but it is useful in emergency situations. This is the benefit of Yan Changwu.
Unknowingly, he showed the change brought about by his ability!
All the guards, except for the depth and shallow water, all knelt down and pleaded guilty to Yan Changwu. Yan Changwu said slightly angrily: "Go back and punish again!"
