The First Gun

Qinghe Town!

An arms factory located deep in the mountains.

The internal production line is being debugged, and Qin Yan is directing the workers to process and manufacture various parts.

Drilling, cutting, and handling the raw materials all took up a lot of his time!

Qin Yan then assembled the various parts together.

A brand-new M1 Garand Rifle appeared in his hands.

This is a semi-automatic rifle he saw while watching videos in his previous life, commonly known as the 'Big Eight'.

Highly accurate and powerful, it was the main weapon of the Great Eagle during World War II.

"My lord, why is this weapon so strange?"

It doesn't look like a stick, nor does it look like a gun.

Ba Wei carefully examined the weapon in Qin Yan's hand; it didn't seem to have any offensive capabilities.

That's because it hasn't been loaded yet.

Qin Yan chuckled and said, "Men really can't resist guns; they just can't get enough of them."

Press the magazine into the magazine!

7.62mm bullets can easily penetrate the vast majority of current armor!

"Xiaoyi, prepare a set of armor!"

"Yes!"

Qin Xiaoyi immediately agreed. He was also very curious about just how powerful this strange weapon was, that it could make his boss like it so much.

Soon, a scarecrow in the shooting range was dressed in armor.

Qin Yan and the others stood a hundred meters away, loaded their guns, and pulled the triggers in one smooth motion.

There was a loud bang.

Sparks flew from the gun barrel, and the scarecrow in the distance trembled instantly!

Upon seeing this scene, Ba Wei's pupils immediately contracted.

"That's fast!"

These words practically came out of his mouth.

Immediately afterwards, I was completely overwhelmed with shock.

However, Qin Yan did not stop, continuing to pull the trigger, and all eight bullets hit the scarecrow in the distance.

"Ba Wei, what do you think of the power of this gun?"

Qin Yan immediately smiled and spoke.

"A masterpiece of craftsmanship; even an ordinary person could easily master this weapon."

If this were taken to the battlefield, it would be an absolute massacre.

Ba Wei a deep breath, the shock in his heart had not subsided.

The look in their eyes as they looked at Qin Yan wasn't one of shock, but of fear.

How could their brains possibly be so developed to create such a terrifying weapon of mass destruction?

"My lord, please look!"

Qin Xiaoyi, also looking utterly shocked, presented the armor to everyone!

Eight gun holes are clearly visible on it.

Many of those present had fought alongside their lovers and understood what this meant.

The armor has lost its purpose.

And the cause of all this was the weapon in Qin Yan's hand.

What other purpose do we serve in practicing martial arts?

Qin Xiaoyi's head was a little dazed. He had worked so hard for so long, and he had no confidence that he could withstand such a shot.

Snap!

Qin Yan immediately slapped the other person on the head.

That's because you haven't mastered the skill yet.

Qin Yan looked at the Garand Rifle in his hand. "This weapon is sufficient for dealing with ordinary people and some martial artists."

He immediately turned to Ba Wei beside him and asked, "What level of expert do you think this weapon can handle?"

Upon hearing this, Ba Wei pondered for a moment before speaking, "Martial artists below the Qi Origin Realm would find it difficult to withstand this weapon. If there were enough of them, even Qi Yuan Realm martial artists should be able to be killed."

Of course, it would be much less effective against those Qi Origin Realm martial artists who have undergone external training.

Those who reach the level of Innate Martial Artist possess True Qi protecting their bodies, making them very difficult to break through.

"It's so unfair! A martial artist might need to cultivate for ten or twenty years to reach the Qi Origin Realm."

But it's not even worth a single bullet!

Ba Wei couldn't help but sigh.

"As the world develops, the Heaven and Earth Origin Qi will only become more abundant, making cultivation easier in the future."

Qin Yan smiled faintly, "High-level martial artists will still be in high demand in the future."

However, it is undeniable that technological advancements will bring greater benefits to ordinary people.

The weapon in my hand is merely a manifestation of technology.

"Technology? What's that? Special martial arts techniques?"

Ba Wei was taken aback by what he heard!

It's not easy to explain to you right now, but you can think of it as a scientific method.

You can understand science as a school of thought that encompasses everything, studies the essence of all things in the universe, and applies it.

Although this world isn't very scientific!

Qin Yan replied, then added a sentence at the end!

"Science is a truly terrifying school of thought."

After hearing Qin Yan's explanation, Ba Wei's expression became solemn. Studying the essence of heaven and earth and all things was something he had never thought about before.

However, just by looking at the weapon in Qin Yan's hand, one can get a glimpse of the whole picture.

"Xiaoyi, the workers here are not allowed to leave, and the weapons developed here must absolutely not be known to outsiders."

If anyone leaks the information, we will produce it at all costs.

If you can't solve it, go find Shadow; if that still doesn't work, come directly to me.

Qin Yan said very solemnly.

Qin Xiaoyi immediately nodded emphatically. "Don't worry, boss, there won't be any problems."

"The only regrettable thing right now is the fundamental issue of production capacity!"

Qin Yan looked at the Garand Rifle in his hand with some regret, even though he had spent a lot of effort to build the production line.

Raw materials are a major problem.

Especially for bullets, the production of brass is not high, mainly due to mining issues.

It would be great if we could find a chalcopyrite mine.

With his abilities, he could collect hundreds or even thousands of tons a day!

Of course, we had to settle for second best and make steel bullets!

After all, steelmaking is much easier than copper smelting.

"Perhaps you really will be able to ensure that people have food to eat and clothes to wear in the future."

Ba Wei looked at Qin Yan, as if he had found a new goal, and his whole spirit and energy were transformed.

That day will come.

When the other party suddenly brought up this matter, Qin Yan smiled faintly and said, "The reason why so many people starve to death in this world is not only due to the exploitation by those powerful families, but also because the technology is too backward."

In the future, I will not only ensure that all the people of this world have enough to eat, but also that they have meat to eat every day and that everyone has access to education.

It would be really boring to be transported to this world without causing some trouble.

I wonder what changes my wind from another world will bring to this world?

Ba Wei stared blankly at Qin Yan, his mind and soul trembling.

He had suspected it before.

But now he firmly believes that this is a person who can change the times.

A gust of wind that changes the world.

Wherever it went, all things flourished, bringing new life to this decaying dynasty.

Such a person is someone worth following for a lifetime.

With the development of the arsenal, the production of the Garand Rifle was approximately 70 units.

The main challenge was training the ordinary workers, which took a lot of time. As they became more skilled, their output gradually increased.

After about two weeks, I was able to consistently consume around 200 vials per day!

But another problem is quite serious.

That's ammunition, which is a consumable item, and the consumption can't keep up with the production capacity of firearms.
