Chapter 252 Making a Gunpowder Gun
"Kid, what did you get me? Take it back now."

"Sixth Grandfather, I've already taken it, so there's no reason for me to take it back. Just accept it! It's not much."

Although this sixth grandfather is not a biological brother of his grandfather, he is a cousin, just like him and Li Chengqian. It can be said that they are very close.

"Child, Sixth Grandpa has some food here. Before the New Year, your grandfather sent me some food."

"Huh!" Li Jia was stunned for a moment.

But it makes sense when you think about it, Sixth Grandpa and his grandfather are cousins!
And Sixth Grandpa is an elderly widower. It’s the New Year, so how could his cousin Li Laogen not come to visit him?

“Sixth Grandpa, what my grandpa gave was given by my grandpa, and what I give is what I give. They are different.”

Hearing what Li Jiayi said, Sixth Grandpa looked at him and said, "You are a good boy!"

Li Jiayi smiled and said nothing.

"By the way, Sixth Grandpa, do many people from the village usually go to the commune?"

"It's similar to the past. This drought has not had much impact on our village because before the drought, the team leader led people to buy a lot of food, and now every household has food in stock."

"That's good. No matter what time it is, as long as the people have food in their hands, they won't panic."

"Yes, as long as we have food in our hands, we won't be worried." Sixth Grandpa agreed.

"By the way, Sixth Grandpa, is there any problem with drinking water?"

"No problem." Sixth Grandpa shook his head and said, "Our village has spring water from the mountains. Although it's not much and we can't irrigate the crops, there's no problem with water."

"That's good."

"Yes! Especially the place where your grandfather lives. There is a spring behind the house. Not only can it solve the problem of drinking water, but it can also grow some vegetables and so on."

"Oh, is it?"

Of course Li Jiayi knew that there was a spring behind his grandmother's house, because his grandmother's family had always used water from the spring.

But he didn't expect that his grandmother actually used this water to grow vegetables or something. Isn't she afraid that there won't be enough water?

After chatting with Sixth Grandpa for a while, Li Jiayi left and went to find his two cousins.

Li Jiayi went to Goudan's house first, but did not find his two cousins, including Goudan.

I had no choice but to go to Erhu's house, and sure enough, I found my two cousins ​​there, as well as Goudan.

Several people were making gunpowder guns with wood, which immediately aroused Li Jiayi's interest.

When he was a child in his previous life, Li Jiayi also made a gunpowder gun. He made a model of a gun with wooden boards.

Then use No. 8 iron wire to make a skeleton. If conditions permit, use bicycle chains to string them in a row, and use bullet shells as mesh tubes in the front.

However, this kind of gunpowder gun is not very powerful. If you want to make a powerful gunpowder gun, you can directly use seamless steel pipes, the thinner ones.

Put the nut on the back of the car, find a screw to screw it on, and then weld it. Drill a small hole on the end of the screw to ignite the gunpowder.

This type of gunpowder gun is very powerful and can even be used to shoot birds, but when choosing a steel pipe, you must choose a seamless steel pipe, otherwise it will easily explode and injure you.

Of course, this was referring to Li Jiayi's childhood in his previous life. Such conditions do not exist now.

At most, you can make a chain gun, the kind made from a bicycle chain.

There was no shortage of bullet shells in the village, but what Li Jiayi didn't expect was that Erhu and his friends actually had bicycle chains.

Only the team leader in the village has a bicycle, so this bicycle chain definitely did not come from the team leader's home. The only possibility is that it was bought from a repair shop in the commune.

It just so happened that the Chinese New Year had just passed, and several people must have picked up a lot of firecrackers, so they started making chain guns.

"Brother, don't you have a real gun? Why are you still doing this?" asked the eldest cousin.

"Li Jiayi, do you have a real gun?" Erhu asked.

"Yes! What's the matter?"

It is not uncommon to have guns in this day and age, but children are not allowed to touch them.

Now hearing that Li Jiayi actually had a real gun, both Erhu and Goudan found it incredible.

"Bring it out so we can see it."

"Did not bring."

"Uh!"

The next few people started to work on it, but Li Jiayi only made a semi-finished product. There was no other way because there were not so many bicycle chains.

Needless to say, when several people bought bicycle chains, they were sold according to quantity and there was no surplus at all.

Li Jiayi didn't care! He just wanted to play. If he wanted this thing, it would be too easy.

As long as there are materials, it can be made in space with just a thought, and because of the power of space, the finished product will be much more refined than those made outside.

But when he thought of the bicycle, he remembered that his grandmother didn't seem to have any bicycles yet.

My grandparents are only in their fifties and have no problem riding a bicycle.

If grandparents had a bicycle, it would be much more convenient for them to go anywhere.

Even if you go to the commune, riding a bicycle is faster than taking a ox cart!
Thinking of this, Li Jiayi said to his eldest cousin: "Brother, I want to go to the commune. Do you want to go?"

"To the Commune! When?"

"Now."

"Well! Let's go then."

"it is good."

After saying goodbye to Goudan and Erhu, the three of them rushed to grandma's house.

Because the tricycle is still at grandma's house! They can't walk there!
Otherwise, it would be impossible to come back after dark, even if I came back on a bicycle.

The three of them walked quickly and returned home in no time.

Li Jiayi went straight to start the tricycle.

The sound of the tricycle engine also startled Li Jiaqi, Li Jialin and Li Jiafen, and they hurriedly ran out of the house.

"Brother, where are you driving the tricycle for?" asked the second sister Li Jialin.

"I'm going to the commune with my elder and second brothers." "Ah! Then I'll go too."

"Second sister, what are you doing? I'm going to buy something and will be back soon."

It would have been fine if Li Jiayi hadn't mentioned buying things, but as soon as he mentioned buying things, Li Jialin got on the tricycle directly.

Li Jiayi had no idea what to do with this foodie.

"Sister, let's go too!" said Li Jiafen.

"Do you want to go?" asked the eldest sister.

"Yeah!" Li Jialin nodded quickly.

"Then go!"

If the second sister goes, Li Jiayi will try to stop her, but if the eldest sister and cousin go, Li Jiayi will not stop them.

Fortunately, the tricycle's cabin was big enough, so five people could sit in the back without even taking up half the space.

The main reason was that when Li Jiayi made it, he made it big enough so that people could sit on the left, right and back.

"Mom, let's go to the commune and be back soon." Li Jiayi said to Ye Xin.

"Got it. Be careful on the road."

"Ok!"

Although it was not very far away, Li Jiayi still took A Sheng and A Quan with him.

It's much safer with Asheng and Aquan around. As for Acai, he's a gatekeeper in the city.

The tricycle is very fast. It takes less than half an hour to reach the destination, a distance of more than ten kilometers. But this is because the road is too bad.

If this were an asphalt or concrete road, the speed would be even faster.

There were no shopping malls in the commune. Everything had to be bought at the supply and marketing cooperatives, including bicycles.

However, the bicycles sold by the commune supply and marketing cooperative can only be considered as agency sales.

Arriving at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative, Li Jiayi stopped his tricycle, turned around and said, "Look for something you want to buy later, and then we'll buy it together."

After saying that, he went downstairs.

After everyone came down, Li Jiayi closed the door and then went in together.

A strange tricycle came to the door of the supply and marketing cooperative and attracted everyone's attention.

Even people from the supply and marketing cooperative came out to see.

After joining the supply and marketing cooperative, the eldest sister did not do anything, but the second sister was different.

I want all the White Rabbit candies, snacks, and biscuits!
Li Jiayi didn't care. He didn't need these tickets. Besides, these things didn't cost much money.

When he buys expensive furniture, antiques or famous watches, they would easily cost hundreds or thousands of dollars, so tens or hundreds of dollars don't matter to him at all.

"Auntie, what brands of bicycles do you sell here?" Li Jiayi asked.

"Now there are only two types, Phoenix and Flying Pigeon. They were sold before the end of the year."

"Can I see it?"

"Okay, come with me!"

The bicycles were not placed outside. For the commune supply and marketing cooperative, bicycles were precious goods and were not placed outside.

I followed the salesperson to the back and saw two bicycles parked there, one Phoenix and one Fei Ge.

As for whether Li Jiayi could afford the bicycle, the salesperson didn't even doubt it.

You have to know that he came here on a strange tricycle!
Although they didn't recognize it, they heard the sound of the engine.

In this day and age, burning oil is considered high-end, no matter what it is.

"How much is this Phoenix bicycle?" Li Jiayi asked.

"Phoenix bicycle is one hundred and eighty-six, for a Phoenix bicycle ticket." The salesperson looked at Li Jiayi and said.

"I want it." After saying that, Li Jiayi took out a Phoenix bicycle ticket and handed it over.

"Let's go! I'll get you a ticket."

"Ok!"

When they got to the front, the salesperson started issuing tickets. Li Jiayi took the ticket and paid the money, and the salesperson pushed the bicycle out.

"Brother, did you buy this bicycle?" asked my eldest cousin.

"Yeah! What's the matter?"

When Li Chengqian heard Li Jiayi asking about the bicycle just now, he thought he was just looking at it, but he didn't expect that he actually bought it.

Because he knew very well that a bicycle was not easy to buy. Not only did it cost a lot of money, but it also required a ticket.

The money is easy to deal with, but the tickets are really hard to get!
"By the way, what did you buy?"

When the two cousins ​​heard Li Jiayi's question, they shook their heads, meaning that they didn't buy anything.

The same goes for my eldest sister.

Just looking at his second sister, Li Jiayi was speechless. Is it because she can’t eat it or what?
"Count these too!" Li Jiayi said, pointing at the things on the counter.

"Ok."

But it doesn’t matter, I didn’t bring these things with me this time.

The reason why my second sister bought so many things is probably because she didn’t know how many days she would stay here.

Anyway, they were just some snacks, so he planned to buy them even if his second sister didn’t want to.

After buying the things, they didn't stop, but loaded the things onto the tricycle and headed back.

　PS: Please give me a monthly ticket and recommendation ticket! Thank you!
