Chapter 511: Jin State Attacks Liao State
Wanyan Ali's way of speaking this time is obviously different.
The last time he had a conversation with Wu Dalang, he adopted a demeaning approach to achieve the purpose of reducing prices.
But Wanyan Ali found that the method from last time didn't seem to work, and the earth-shattering thunder was still very expensive.
If you want to take a few cannons back this time, try to praise Wu Dalang, maybe Wu Dalang will reduce the price for him as soon as he is happy.
Wanyan Ali felt that he was too witty.
And Wu Dalang just looked like he didn't know why, and just replied normally: "Well, yes, this is the latest invention, and the power is huge." ”
"That's... I wonder how much this cannon costs? Wanyan Ali asked tentatively.
"The manufacture of cannons is much more difficult than the earth-shaking thunder, and building one cannon is equivalent to making a hundred earth-shaking thunderbolts." Wu Dalang said slowly.
As soon as Wu Dalang's price was reported, he was instantly stunned.
According to the previous conversion, this cannon will cost 10,000 war horses. What the hell...
But the problem is,It's useless to have a single cannon.,You have to have shells.,This cannonball shouldn't be cheap.,Every cannon is burning money.。。
Wanyan Ali is very helpless.,This technology is too profitable.。。
However, this cannon Wanyan Ali felt that it was still necessary to ask, and he felt that Wanyan Xian should also be interested.
So Wanyan Ali continued to ask: "Then I don't know what the price of this cannonball is?" ”
Wu Dalang had already thought about the price of these things, so he replied without hesitation: "One cannonball can withstand five earth-shattering thunders." ”
Compared to cannons, cannonballs are indeed much cheaper.
But if you compare it with the earth-shattering thunder, this cannonball is also ridiculously expensive.
If these cannons and shells are traded with high-quality war horses, the cavalry of their Jin Kingdom is estimated to drop a notch.
Thinking about riding a tall horse in the past, and riding a weak and thin horse in order to change the cannons and sky-shaking thunder in the back, it is a sad thing to think about.
"General Wu, if I want to buy it, can I buy it at the price...?" Wanyan Ali tried to ask.
Wanyan Ali's tone was slightly pleading, their Jin country is almost poor and crazy, okay, otherwise they wouldn't have sent troops to fight Liao, just thinking about grabbing something to supplement the family.
If Wu Dalang could lower him a little, then their expenses would be much less.
Wanyan Ali looked at Wu Dalang with expectant eyes, hoping that Wu Dalang could pity and pity these poor people in their Jin Kingdom.
At least, if you want to slaughter them, you have to wait for them to grab good things from Liao.
Wu Dalang pondered slightly, then sighed and said slowly.
"Well, that's it. I, Wu Dalang, am not the kind of person who is not close to people, after all, you are all old customers, and you should give discounts. ”
"Well, I'll give you a package price, and I'll give you two cannons and twenty shells. The original price of these things is 30,000 war horses, and I will give you a 20% discount. As long as you are twenty-four. ”
"That's my bottom line, if you really want to buy it, so be it."
"Thank you General Wu for your generosity, but I can't decide for the time being, I have to go back with the Heaven-Shaking Thunder immediately, and by the way, ask our general to decide." Wanyan Ali said.
Now Wanyan Ali is really more and more grateful to Wu Dalang, he has never seen such an understanding person.
"You're welcome, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and I believe that the rise of the Jin Kingdom is a matter of time." Wu Dalang said.
"Then General Wu's auspicious words, I won't talk about General Wu, and I will leave." Wanyan Ali said.
"Well, let's have a nice trip." Wu Dalang said.
Wanyan Ali's eyes were full of emotion, Wu Dalang is really good to people, and he actually wished him a smooth journey, he is really an approachable and good general.
After Yan Ali walked out of the big tent, Wu Dalang said to the sword shadow standing next to him.
"You go and call Yang Zaixing over."
"Yes." The sword shadow walked out.
After a while, Yang Zaixing also came to the big tent.
"Your Excellency." Yang Zaixing clenched his fists and said.
"You arrange for someone to go back and pull over the two cannons that we bombarded the city wall before."
"Huh?" Yang Zaixing was shocked for a moment, and then continued: "The power of those two cannons is too weak, and it won't be useful to pull them here." Also wasted shells. ”
Yang Zaixing was very puzzled by Wu Dalang's arrangement, and the two cannons were about to rust in the warehouse.
"Who told you that we use it, of course we brought it over for the people of Jinguo."
"What? Is Jin Guo so unpicky? Do you want this kind of defective product? Yang Zaixing was surprised.
"Well, maybe Jinguo is relatively poor and can't afford high-end products." Wu Dalang explained.
"My lord, that's... How many war horses have been changed this time? Yang Zaixing asked with a licking face.
"Twenty-four thousand. A little less. But they are probably really poor, so I won't pit them. Wu Dalang said.
Twenty-four thousand??
Yang Zaixing's eyes widened, and he exchanged 24,000 yuan for these two pieces of rubbish-like broken copper and iron.
Yang Zaixing is a little skeptical about life now, and this money is too easy to make.
Isn't that expensive?
Yang Zaixing suddenly thought of something, the fundamental reason why this broken copper and iron is so expensive is that Wu Dalang deceived the people of Jin.
It is no wonder that Wu Dalang warmly entertained Yan Ali last night, and fired cannons on the city wall of the Liao soldiers early this morning.
Wu Dalang had a premeditated plan, just to sell the rags at home.
And, it just so happens that there are still people who want to buy it.
"Hey, sir, I see." Yang Zaixing said with a smile, and then ran out with a smoke.
Yang Zaixing now can't wait to order someone to go back to Jinghai County to get cannons.
Although it is not right to lie to people, as long as there is a war horse, Yang Zaixing is still extremely willing.
This requires 20,000 or four war horses to be in hand, and he, Yang Zaixing, a cavalry general, has a lot of cards.
And how did Wanyan Ali know that Wu Dalang and these people are so bad, and the routines are one after another, just to cheat them out of their money.
After more than ten days of hard work, Wanyan Ali finally returned to Jinguo.
After giving the earth-shaking thunder to Yan Xianye, he also introduced the cannon.
Of course, Wanyan Ali's eloquence is quite good, otherwise he would not have been sent over as a lobbyist.
Therefore, under such a vivid description of Wanyan Ali, Wanyan Xian also became interested in artillery.
But... The problem is that he wants another 20,000 war horses, which really wants his life.
For the first time, Wan Yan Xian also felt that he was so poor.
What to do with poverty, it can only be robbery.
Now, the earth-shaking thunder is also in place, and it is time to launch an attack on the Liao State.
Anyway, there are many war horses in Liao, so it is also a good choice to grab some to exchange for cannons.
As a result, the war between the Jin and the Liao broke out.
