"Aaron, you don't seem to be worried about this problem?" Vereesa played with the revolver. Out of curiosity, Vereesa also tried this new firearm that can shoot six times in a row. She could also see that Aaron valued this gun, so she didn't understand Aaron's calmness.

Aaron gave it up, pointed at the revolver in Vereesa's hand and asked, "That question is not urgent. Vereesa, what do you think of this gun?"

"This gun?" Vereesa heard this question and looked down at the pistol in his hand. After thinking for a moment, he said seriously, "Although this gun has a shorter range and is not as powerful as the arrows we use, its rate of fire is really fast."

Hearing Vereesa's serious opinion, Aaron's mouth twitched, but he also knew very well that in Azeroth, the practicality of this revolver was indeed not as practical as the bows and arrows in the hands of the elf rangers.

This is both because Azeroth has extraordinary power, and also because the revolvers made by dwarf craftsmen are not as good as the weapons in Aaron's hometown.

Aaron has seen the terrifying archery skills of the elf rangers before. A qualified elf ranger can hit hundreds of shots at a distance of thirty or forty meters. This range and accuracy are already terrifying. Now, again In addition, rangers can use the power of Arcane to enhance the power of arrows. The revolver that Aaron asked the dwarf craftsmen to build may not be as good as the bows and arrows in the hands of rangers.

"What? Are you unhappy?" Vereesa saw that Aaron was silent and asked tentatively.

Aaron waved his hand and said, "It doesn't count as unhappy, but I need to reconsider who to sell this thing to."

According to Aaron's previous thoughts, since he imitated the famous Lockheed Martin Corporation when he named this trading company, he must follow the development route of an arsenal. Although Aaron doesn't dare to think about things like jet aircraft for the time being, it would be good to toss in a few hot weapons and sell them to the armies of Eastern Kingdoms countries.

However, when the initial enthusiasm began to slowly dissipate with the appearance of this pistol, and was brought back to reality by Vereesa's ruthless opinions, Aaron realized a serious problem - to whom should this gun be sold?

Weapons like revolvers do not seem to be enough for the rulers of various countries to make up their minds to change the tactics of their armies, not to mention that without the support of actual combat performance, this gun will be even more difficult to attract the attention of the upper echelons of various countries.

So what about those troops that originally used long-range weapons? The only professional long-range troops Aaron currently has access to are the ranger troops of High Elf. However, according to what Vereesa said before, the bows and arrows in the hands of the rangers are much more powerful than this gun. Now the only advantage of the gun in the hands of Aaron is that it shoots faster than the bow and arrow within six rounds.

However, the fast rate of fire may not be enough for the rangers to accept such a brand new weapon. Not to mention that the rangers are more accustomed to bows and arrows. They have been trained to use bows and arrows to perform. It is said that after the new weapon is installed, the logistics of the ranger unit will need to be overhauled. This is probably enough to make High Elf reject the new weapon.

"Now that I think about it, I seem to have done a very unnecessary thing." Aaron muttered thoughtfully, and at the same time, he was also thinking about who he could sell this gun to.

"Aaron, can you give me this gun?" Vereesa suddenly said to Aaron.

"Why, are you interested in this gun again?" Aaron glanced at Vereesa and asked strangely.

Vereesa nodded and said, "I think this gun is very commemorative, and... I think with the rate of fire of this gun, it would be good to use it for self-defense after being approached."

Vereesa actually just saw that Aaron seemed to care about this gun at first, so he wanted to use this method to affirm the weapon in disguise to comfort Aaron. After all, when Aaron had a heated discussion with the dwarf craftsmen, Vereesa was also watching from the side.

But as he talked, Vereesa suddenly realized that this gun did have its value, that is, it could be used as a self-defense weapon in close encounter situations.

Because the main battlefield is Quel'Thalas's Eversong Woods, the elf rangers often encounter various unexpected encounters. Although most of the rangers have some skills in close combat, after all, not everyone is as good at close combat and long range as Halduron. When the rangers encounter Troll at close range in the dense forest, the results are always miserable.

This is partly due to the fact that rangers are not good at melee combat, and part of the reason is because the bows and arrows that rangers are good at are difficult to use at close range. Not to mention anything else, when the distance is close, rangers may be interrupted if they want to use their bows.

But if there is a weapon that can be fired by taking it out, the situation will be different. Vereesa has just been tested. This revolver gun can inflict enough heavy damage to the enemy within ten steps to prevent the opponent from launching a counterattack. Even Troll has amazing recovery power.

"Is it used as a self-defense weapon?" Aaron scratched his head, and after thinking for a while, he showed a happy expression and said, "Vereesa, thank you, I know who to sell this to."

Saying that, Aaron hugged Vereesa excitedly and held her in circles twice until Vereesa gently hammered his shoulder a few times with dissatisfaction before putting Vereesa down.

"Ahem, I'm a little excited." Aaron said sarcastically.

Vereesa blushed a little and said in a low voice, "It's too sudden for you, I'm not ready yet..."

After Aaron was excited after solving one of his worries, he began to prepare to solve another problem. He had this idea before, which was to dismantle the production process of the revolver gun, and then use assembly line operations to let the dwarfs produce it.

Although Aaron doesn't know how to manage assembly line production, fortunately, the company doesn't need too high output in the early stages of its establishment, so Aaron can slowly figure out how to manage it.

After discussing with the dwarf craftsmen, Aaron worked with them to fix the production process of this gun. Although the performance of the mass-produced model is inferior to the prototype that the dwarf craftsmen spared no expense on, Aaron believes that this is enough for use. After all, the performance of the mass-produced model within ten steps is already good enough.

After completing the production of the first batch of products, Aaron decided to hold an opening ceremony to start Ya-Mei Trading Company's official business.

Whether Aaron's ideas can be implemented depends on the company's performance after opening. If it can continue to operate smoothly, then Aaron's various ideas can be turned into reality one by one, easing the suffering of Azeroth in the future.
