My whole family traveled across time with an encyclopedia

Chapter 147 It's Not a Gift

Ning Changrong has no objection to the matter of exchanging food with others with hand crossbows. After all, these are the resources they can get at the moment.

In this world right now, weapons and food are the most important things.

"We have limited conditions there, and the manpower is not so fast for the time being. It is impossible to produce a large number of hand crossbows in a short time."

Ning Qingxi knew the answer a long time ago, "Then let's sell them the blueprints? But we can't afford less food. With this hand crossbow, they can have an extra weapon of war on the battlefield. Although it is only It is single-shot, but its armor-piercing power is impressive." She is very confident in this, after all, she developed it herself.

After saying this, Ning Qingxi was actually a little bit reluctant.

But in fact, as she said to Fu Linjun, although it is an excuse, it is also one of the facts. Even if their number does not increase, it is true that it is more difficult to find food in the mountains in winter, and it is impossible to say anything about hunting. up.

Although they also have some things that can be full, such as pumpkins, there is still a difference in the amount of food that is not serious.

Moreover, their work cannot be stopped in winter, and they consume a lot of food.

Forget it, anyway, the encyclopedia in her mind still has a lot of drawings.

The father and daughter reached an agreement, and when Chang Yuan sent someone to find them, they went to Chang Yuan's study together, and Mr. Fu Lin was also there.

After the banquet, Fu Linjun had already relayed to Chang Yuan what Ning Qingxi had said to her.

The food can be sold to the other party. After all, they owe him such a big favor.

But after the food was given, there was no debt between them.

Chang Yuan was not surprised to see the father and daughter coming in. He had heard from Chang Wencheng and Fu Linjun that there was something unusual about this little girl Ning Qingxi.

Before Chang Yuan could speak, Ning Changrong spoke first after saluting, "General Chang, compared to you, you already know the purpose of our coming to Taizhou. I heard from my daughter that Wen Cheng wanted to exchange crossbows with us."

Chang Yuan nodded.

Ning Changrong pulled out his waist, and handed over the single-shot hand crossbow that he took from Ning Daniu and the others.

Chang Yuan watched the opponent's movements around his waist, his pupils shrank, and he subconsciously stood in front of Fu Linjun. After the opponent handed over his crossbow, his tense spirit recovered.

Fu Linjun smiled to smooth things over, "My husband has been fighting on the battlefield all year round, and he will inevitably feel a little nervous when he sees weapons. Brother Ning, please don't take offense."

Ning Changrong shook his head, "Madam Fu, you're welcome, I don't care."

After a pause, seeing that Chang Yuan had started to play with the hand crossbow carefully, Ning Changrong continued: "General Chang's hand is the light and portable hand crossbow. I know that the current price of food is high and it is not easy to buy. We are willing to Use the blueprint of this hand crossbow to exchange food with General Chang, Wen Cheng must have told you about the benefits of this crossbow, but what you hear is not true, but seeing is believing. General Chang can try it himself."

Chang Yuan looked at the exquisite and small hand crossbow in his hand, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it. If the power was really as powerful as his nephew said, then it would be their profit to exchange some food for the other party.

It's just that in this way, the kindness between the two cannot be directly offset.

After all, this is a serious transaction, not a gift.

"Okay, please brother Ning and Miss Ning to accompany me to the barracks."

Ning Changrong and Ning Qingxi have nothing to do.

The four of them went to the barracks together, and the generals in the army who heard about it all came over to join in the fun.

Ma Honglin stood not far from the four of them, with a vague intention of guarding.

"Old Lu, can this huge bed crossbow really be shrunk down so small?"

Lu Cui squinted his eyes, looking at the crossbow in Chang Yuan's hand, his heart felt like a stormy sea.

When General Chang came to him to study how to reduce the huge intrusion into an arm-sized hand crossbow, he still thought it was a bit of a fantasy.

If it weren't for the other party's firm tone, he would not have accompanied him to do that experiment, but in the end it still failed.

Lu Cui shook his head, "I don't know either, let's take a look first."

Under the eyes of everyone, Chang Yuan pulled the trigger, and the arrow "swished" towards the target in the distance.

Chang Yuan weighed the hand crossbow in his hand, squinted his eyes, adjusted the distance, loaded the arrow, and fired again.

"Whoosh!"

Hit the bullseye this time!
"The general is mighty!"

After Wang Hanting saw where the arrow was shooting, he raised his left arm and took the lead in shouting.

The rest of the onlookers echoed, "The general is mighty!"

The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

Lu Cui stood in front of the bull's-eye, completely stunned and motionless.

Unexpectedly, there are people out there, there is someone out there, someone can shrink that huge bed crossbow to such a small size! ?

He couldn't wait to walk in front of Chang Yuan, "General, can you show me this hand crossbow?"

Chang Yuan burst out laughing, "You can't ask me about it, this thing is this little girl."

Lu Cui's eyes were shocked, the little girl Chang Wencheng told him was actually true?So young?
But he didn't show any contempt in his eyes. Instead, he respected him very much, regarded the other party as a senior, and saluted respectfully, "Miss Ning, can I take a look with this crossbow?"

Lu Cui's actions really startled the people around him. They knew that this thing was powerful, but Lao Lu was also born in a family of craftsmen, so his abilities were not bad, and he could even be said to be one of the top in the world.Most of the weapons in their army were made by the other side.

People in the army respected him very much, but General Chang personally invited him, if it wasn't for his grandfather, General Chang, he would not have joined them at all.

I didn't expect such a capable person to respect the little girl so much, how could I not make them stunned?

Ning Qingxi looked at the man who was older than his father in front of him, without changing his face, "Yes, you can ask me if you don't know anything."

Wow, this little girl is extraordinary.Everyone couldn't help exclaiming in their hearts.

Lu Cui held the hand crossbow and looked carefully at its structure.

I couldn't help muttering to myself, "So that's the way it is, I thought it was wrong."

No matter what, Lu Cui is also a family of craftsmen. After getting the real thing, except for a few steps, he also knows the general principle. If there are blueprints, he can completely reproduce it.

I think that when his ancestors were alive, they had received the gift of the king, but later the status of craftsmen became lower and lower, and their life became more and more difficult.

At this moment, his eyes were full of brilliance, and his expression became more and more excited.

Can't help but look at Ning Qingxi and said: "Miss Ning is so talented! She can come up with such an exquisite weapon! I don't know who she studied under?"

Ning Qingxi said in a steady tone, "I didn't ask anyone as a teacher, I just figured out these things unintentionally." There is no way, I can't say, there is a book in her mind, and these are all things she saw from the book. right?
