[Ran^ζ^Library][]. []. [com] Takeshi also knew that if he wanted to use Gao Yanai, he first had to find a way to get close to him and mix with him. γFor more exciting, please visitγ
Although Wu Zhi has not been a "big brother" for many years, his ability to deal with ruffians and hooligans has not been left behind.
As the saying goes, snakes and rats have a nest...... It is always easy for people with similar smells to find a common language and become friends, and Gao Ya is a famous ruffian hooligan in the Great Song Dynasty, and his hobby is nothing more than eating, drinking, and having fun...... There are also married women.
Wu Zhi likes these things, so if Wu Zhi wants to deliberately befriend him, it shouldn't be difficult.
First of all, although Wu Zhi has no discipline, but Wu Zhi has moral character, he will never do anything to hurt others for no reason, and he will not be like Gao Yanei, for his own selfish desires, he will play three indiscriminate means to harm the whole family.
Wu Zhi felt that although he was not a good person, he was by no means a bad person, he was just a gentle profiteer.
Moreover, the biggest difference between Wu Zhi and Gao Yanei is that Gao Yanei only loves wives, while Wu Zhi is not like this, Wu Zhi not only likes wives, but Wu Zhi also likes girls, cute girls, royal sisters, goddesses, mature women...... As long as there are beautiful girls, Wu Zhi likes them and doesn't pick them.

When it was close to noon, Xu Ning naturally wanted to set up wine to entertain Wu Zhi and Tang Long, but Wu Zhi and Tang Long were not polite to this, and readily agreed.
Originally, Wu Zhi didn't plan to ask Xu Ning for his treasure armor to watch, after all, he just met Xu Ning today, if he directly asked Xu Ning to take out the ancestral treasure armor to watch, it would be too abrupt, if Xu Ning was unwilling to take it out, even if he refused politely, then this wine would be unpleasant.
Xu Ning just gave Wu Zhi a brilliant idea, Wu Zhi was in a good mood, he just wanted to have a good drink with Xu Ning, and he didn't want to be bored.
But after three rounds of drinking, Tang Long didn't know if he was too strong to drink or for some other reason, so he suddenly took the initiative to bring up the matter of Baojia to Xu Ning.
"Cousin, it's rare to have fun today, why don't you take out your ancestral treasure armor Sai Tang Yi for the big officials to watch?"
As soon as Tang Long finished speaking, Xu Ning glanced at him with a stiff face, and then looked at Wu Zhi with a smile.
Don't blame Xu Ning for losing his temper, his treasure armor is an ancestral treasure, but Xu Ning never mentions it to outsiders, except for a few close people who know, few people in the entire Great Song Dynasty know, otherwise, in Bianjing City, where there are many powerful people, can he keep this treasure armor?
The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty!
"My cousin thinks he has eaten too much wine and is talking a little nonsense, where do I have any treasure armor."
knew that Tang Long was a little drunk, but Xu Ning kept pouring him wine, as if he was afraid that Tang Long's mouth would be idle.
Wu Zhi understood Xu Ning very well, so he only pretended that nothing had happened, but Tang Long seemed to be energetic, and said reluctantly: "Cousin, why is he so forgetful, that treasure armor is the treasure of your family's ancestors for four generations, don't hide it, take it out and show it to my family's senior officials!" Don't worry, my family's big officials are the most moral, and they won't worry about your family's treasure armor, let alone spread it! β
Xu Ning was embarrassed.
Wu Zhi is also embarrassed.
When Tang Long said this, Wu Zhi couldn't pretend to be deaf and dumb anymore, anyway, he also wanted to see the treasure armor, so he simply said to Xu Ning: "Since that's the case, how about Xu Jiaotou take it out for me to see?" I'm a merchant, so I don't need armor. β
Wu Zhi looked at Xu Ning, and thought to himself, boy, don't be stingy anymore, I not only know that your family really has treasure armor, but also know that your kid hides the treasure armor on the beam of your house, dare to shirk and don't give face, I will call Shi Qian to come to your house tomorrow and steal the treasure armor......
Hmph, Shi Qian was able to steal the treasure armor from your house in his previous life, and he can do it now.
Xu Ning struggled for a moment, and finally shook his head helplessly.
"Since the martial arts official has spoken, then I will take it out and show the big official, the big official is a person who values love and righteousness, Xu Ning believes that you will not publicize it to the public!"
"Don't worry."
When Xu Ning turned around and went out to get the treasure armor, Tang Long, who had been drunk and hazy, seemed to have suddenly woken up, and immediately became energetic, and smiled strangely at Wu Zhi.
Wu Zhi secretly smiled bitterly, he didn't expect Tang Long, who was not smiling on weekdays, to have such a clever side, Wu Zhi was a little strange, they drank rice wine with a very low degree at Xu Ning's house, although it tasted good, but it was not so quick to get drunk.
Dare to love Tang Long, this is in the "pit brother"......
After a while, Xu Ning returned to the wine table with a mahogany box, and after the wooden box was placed on the table, Wu Zhi began to hold his breath, waiting for Xu Ning to take out the treasure armor.
In fact, the armor of ancient soldiers is far stronger and heavier than later generations think, generally there are three materials: leather armor, bamboo armor and iron armor, leather armor has the lowest defense, but it is light. Bamboo armor is a bit like the seat cushion of the summer car in later generations, these bamboo pieces are made into heavy armor to protect the vital points of the whole body, and it is difficult to cut through the ordinary sword; The iron armor is stronger, and ordinary people are already invulnerable when they wear the iron armor, but the disadvantage of the iron armor is that it is too bulky.
In the Song Dynasty, the armor of the army generally had two armors, Mingguang armor, and bamboo armor and rattan armor.
Therefore, on the ancient battlefield, when the soldiers on both sides were fighting, they talked about skills, and this skill was to see the seams and insert the blade, after all, no matter how thick the armor was, there were gaps and weak points, such as the lower three roads, such as the two ribs, such as the neck...... These are not protected.
However, the industrial level in ancient times was limited, except for the generals who wore scaly iron armor that wrapped their whole body, the general soldiers mainly wore bamboo armor, and at most wore fragmentary iron armor, such as heart guards.
Xu Ning took out a golden breastplate, the breastplate was covered with shiny scales, and at first glance, he thought that Xu Ning had taken out a carp that had become a fine carp, Xu Ning carefully held the armor in front of Wu Zhi, and Wu Zhi was not polite, and took the armor.
After taking a closer look, what made Wu Zhi feel strange was that this armor was all made of metal, and even the inner line was also made of thin metal wires, but this armor was not heavy at all, although it was heavy in his hand, but this weight was several times lighter than that of ordinary cuirasses.
What amazed Wu Zhi even more was that the outside of this breastplate was fixed metal scales, and the inside was actually woven with layers of soft metal wires, and the whole cuirass was really like the scales on the carp's body.
No wonder it is called a treasure armor, I don't know how it looks first-class, and its design is very superb and seamless...... However, after seeing this treasure armor, Wu Zhi just praised its high level of production, and Wu Zhi didn't think there was anything unusual about the function of this treasure armor.
This armor is indeed light to wear, but on the battlefield, the enemy can take your life even if it doesn't hurt your upper body, although Xu Ning was wearing this armor in his previous life, wasn't he still killed by an arrow in the neck.
For soldiers, this kind of armor is just a handicraft, and its function is similar to putting an iron bucket on the body, and it is also to protect the upper body without dead ends......
After returning the treasure armor to Xu Ning with an envious expression, Wu Zhi still searched the words of admiration in his stomach and praised the treasure armor, and Xu Ning, who listened directly, was triumphant.
Tang Long also lamented the superb craftsmanship of the treasure armor, it seemed that the pride of the craftsman was stimulated by the treasure armor, and it seemed that he saw what Wu Zhi thought, Tang Long immediately swore to the treasure armor that he would create such a treasure armor in the future.
For Tang Long's ambition, Wu Zhi naturally raised his hands in approval, such a treasure armor is most suitable for self-defense in ordinary times, Wu Zhi is so greedy for life and afraid of death, he really wants one.
Xu Ning also generously said that Tang Long was welcome to come over to observe the treasure armor at any time, so as to copy the same treasure armor as soon as possible, after all, it was a cousin, and he didn't see it, but looking at the proud smile on the corner of Xu Ning's mouth, he obviously didn't believe that Tang Long could copy this kind of treasure armor.

After leaving Xu Ning's house, Wu Zhi asked Tang Long to go back to the blacksmith shop to prepare for work, the matter of Baojia is not in a hurry, and the printing equipment is the main thing.
And Wu Zhi also went to Fan Lou by himself, thinking about how to get close to the most notorious playboy in ancient China, Gao Yanei.
