Chapter Eighty-Eight: "Cheap Doesn't Have Good Goods"

The long wait, from the beginning of the manufacture to the first longbow has been gradually formed, it took almost 3 hours, the last bow training, finally let it reach the specified level, a total of 6 times of bow training, the process of training the bow took almost an hour, plus the time to do it before, a total of 1.5 hours, the first time is so fast, it is already good.

This is the strength of the English longbow, skilled craftsmen, can reduce the time to an hour, and if you put aside the time of training the bow, it will be faster, because in the middle of the training of the bow, there is a lot of waiting time, this time, can be done otherwise, when the manufacturing is completed, do not wait, hand over to a small number of people to train the bow, they continue to make, it will increase the efficiency.

Even if it is the original, in 1.5 hours, a person can complete at least 5 or even 6 bows in one day, which is unimaginable in this era.

At this moment, the important people in the room, including Wang Qingyuan, did not realize that a bow and arrow with the Great Song Dynasty was not a technology tree at all, and the longbow that represented the development direction of another bow was born in their hands.

Wang Qingyuan personally took action and wound the bow, when the silk bowstring was on, because there was no special manufacturing before, this card slot, in Wang Qingyuan's opinion, is relatively simple, after a little adjustment, it should be more firm.

Anyway, when the bowstring was ready, the entire bow was completed, and in an instant, a flash of red light flashed in front of Zhao Xin's eyes, and the level 1 card England Longbow was lit up.

lit up, it means that the longbow is done, Zhao Xin is a little strange, why is it a first-class card, the English longbow is a famous weapon, and the compound bow is the first among the longbow and the short bow, an elite short bow, more than 4 stones are listed as second-level, why is he first-class!

The English longbow, in terms of height, in terms of the classic level, should be level 2, but if you think about it carefully, too, this thing is too easy, just from its production, a carpenter who doesn't know how to make a bow at all, can complete the manufacture of the entire bow body through a half-hanger like Zhao Xin, after a simple explanation.

The bowstring is even simpler, without any manufacturing experience at all, and some ingenious women can make it, which is easier, the population of the Great Song Dynasty is large, which also has the possibility of mass production.

A strategic item should be like this, easy to manufacture on a large scale, the enemy cannot imitate it on a large scale, and at the same time the power is not low.

For example, when there were no saddles and horseshoes, these two pieces of equipment were also epoch-making, but they were not complicated to make, and at the same time, they were not suitable for farming people.

Because of the lack of horses, in most dynasties in the Central Plains, there are basically no strong horses, so the bonus of such items for the Central Plains civilization is not high, but the bonus for the nomads is very significant, and it is suitable for their equipment.

Wang Qingyuan didn't know that what he was holding in his hand was an epoch-making weapon in Zhao Xin's eyes, he didn't feel the power of this weapon at all, and even didn't care too much, the bow power was too small.

He is also considered an archer, just when he was winding, he simply pulled it down, and the feeling he gave him in his hand was very soft, that is, it was about the same as an ordinary half-stone bow in the army, or even worse, such a bow, what to do, hunting can't shoot far, so long, it's not easy to control.

The bow is ready, it is necessary to test, these craftsmen in front of them are good at work, test this bow, then forget it, it's too difficult for them, they won't either, is it to find a hunter to try, they at least have some foundation.

Just as he was hesitating, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and Zhao Xin looked back and saw that Sun Ji was coming. Sun Ji should have just gotten up after resting, last night, he kept watch all night, in order to ensure Zhao Xin's safety, let Yan Hua and the two of them take over, only less than 6 hours, he had recovered his spirits, got up and saw that Zhao Xin was not there, so he came to look for him.

Zhao Xin thought about it, so he simply wanted to try, so he handed it over to Sun Ji, and ordered Miao Yuan: "Please escort Sun in!" ”

Entering Miaojiazhuang, Zhao Xin's outside identity is the fourth young master of the Miao family, Wang Song is the housekeeper, Sun Ji and others are the guards, and when they are their own people, they are only called by their original names.

Sun Ji has been here for a while, he is on duty with Yan Hua, he has been outside, after Zhao Xin left the main house today, Yan Hua, who has followed Zhao Xin, told Sun Ji about Zhao Xin's strange behavior most of the day, he is very strange, why Zhao Xin would make a toy out.

Sun Ji is not so similar, reason told him, this is a bow, just such a bow, it is a bit child's play, wood chips and silk, no matter which one, is not the best material to make a bow, as a warrior with superior force, he has a high degree of acceptance of new weapons, but in this way, it looks like a very simple structure, it looks like a toy, is it a bow, will this be Zhao Xin playing with it.

The bow is one of the most important elements on the battlefield, as the only type of troops that can decide the winner from a distance, in most of the battlefield, it has an important position, at any time, the army lacks a bow, a lack of archers, if a bow is really so simple, what do you need an archer to do, just get extremely fast wood chips, plus silk thread, this is too simple.

Yan Hua was even interested, and made a one-sided evaluation of the price of the bow, which is nothing to add, the use is not professional, the production period is abnormally long material, elm, the whole north is everywhere, the wood used in a bow, that is, the growth period is about 10 years, such a material, it is really not worth much, as for the bowstring, it is even simpler, I heard that only 1 silkworm cocoon was used, then it is even less.

Overall, the price of this bow, the raw materials will not exceed 70 Wen, which also adds the price of more expensive silk, even if it is the price of handwork, it is not high, because a craftsman, at most 2 hours can make one, the real craftsman production time, will not exceed half an hour, the rest is the time to train the bow, this, can train a large number of bows, plus the wages, are not more than 100 Wen, such a cheap bow, so likely to have lethality.

Cheap is not good, this is also the mentality of ordinary people, in military equipment, it is also common, bows with different hardness, the price is also very different, 2 stone bows, may be twice as much as 1 stone, but the bow of four stones is not 4 times, people are 5 times, to the jasper bow, the moon bow such a legendary bow, it is even more terrible, it can no longer be said with the price, jasper bow, yes the inner house is hidden, there was a price 10 years ago, 1500 guan, which is almost the price of 150 cows, The price is so high that it can't be cheaper.

As for the moon bow, the price itself is about the same as the jasper bow, a strong bow of 15 stones, it is not so easy to come out, if it is replaced by a bed crossbow, under the larger volume, it is easy to make it stronger, and the cost will come down, just focus on the bow of 1.5 meters, everything is done on the premise of the best, and the cost is also very huge.

Later, after installing the labor-saving system, it is conceivable how much the Wang family paid, which was simply more expensive than a bow made of pure gold. 、

Of course, these bows have been called treasures, they can't be universally equipped, they can't be measured as general equivalents, but the infantry armor can, including the full set of infantry equipment, from the outer layer of the infantry armor, to the inner lining, and everything else adds up, almost 100 guan, which is also all that an ordinary infantry needs, a 2 stone bow, the purchase price is also about 3-5 guan, suddenly, it has been saved more than ten times, no wonder Sun Ji doesn't believe it.

Zhao Xin was on land, showing a magical side, overall, he was still a child, maybe he was stimulated by the assassination, he wanted to protect himself, so he made such a toy.

Sun Ji seemed to take it for granted that in Zhao Xin's hands, there was also a hand of immortal arts, this immortal art, which could make most of the weapons, these weapons, including bows and crossbows, they were able to resist the first two rounds of attacks by Danmu and others, and the crossbows that attracted Danmu to their side were also embodied by him, he didn't consider those things Zhao Xin was not limited to coming out, but he just made such a toy that looked a little ridiculous.
