Actually, calling it a workshop is an understatement; its true scale surpasses even that of modern factories.
You see, a single public building here covers an area of over a hundred acres.
Yes, that's right—hundred acres.
Especially for a firearms workshop of this magnitude.
Within this courtyard, not only is it filled with various kinds of iron ore, but also a plethora of finished and semi-finished products, among other things.
Most importantly, inside the workshop, there is a dedicated shooting range, specifically designed for testing purposes.
The reason why it occupies such an expansive area is, of course, to prepare for the future testing of more powerful weaponry.
The range of the current large firearms, or cannons if you will, is already quite impressive.
If the distance is too short, it may pose a danger.
That's why, when the young Emperor visited, he was truly astonished.
