Chapter 231: How Much Can a Weapon Be Worth 1
The power, price, and practicality of the grenade really had a huge attraction to Gan Badu and Ahu Maier, but Gan Badu and Ahu Maier only listened to the advantages of Zhao Xu, and ignored the cost price of the grenade's essence. The manufacturing cost of this grenade, the cost of all its materials and labor combined www.biquge.info only half a Guan Wen silver coin, and Zhao Xu opened his mouth to Wu Guan Wen, which also made the officials of the Great Song Rite Department sitting in the car suddenly speechless, because in their consciousness, the sale of three grenades for two Guan Wen is already for the purpose of generating income for the country, and who would have thought that their emperor and master opened his mouth to be five Guan Wen silver money, and he was also a good brother with a righteous face, this is not the most strange thing that makes them feel the most strange thing, The most bizarre thing is that Gan Badu and Ah Hu Maier are stupid and completely grateful, so all the officials of the Great Song Rite Department silently gave a thumbs up to their emperor in their hearts. In fact, this can't be said that Gan Badu and Ah Hu Maier are stupid, this is entirely because the two of them don't know the actual price of these weapons, and Zhao Xu's grenade is compared with artillery, which is also an important part of directly misleading the values of the two of them
The carriage slowly stopped, and an official of the Ministry of Rites who was sitting with the driver of the carriage gently opened the door of the carriage and said to Zhao Xu, "Your Majesty, we have arrived at the place." ”
"Two envoys, we have arrived, please." Zhao Xu made a slight gesture of invitation to Gan Badu and Ah Hu Maier, this is not because Zhao Xu is deliberately polite to them, but because these two are customers, Zhao Xu follows the principle of customer first, so he will be so polite to the envoys of these two small countries in the Western Regions as the king of a country
"Your Majesty the Heavenly Khan, it's really too polite, you are really tormenting the ministers like this, or His Majesty the Heavenly Khan will ask first."
Zhao Xu was not polite to them, smiled, and then took the lead in getting out of the carriage
"Lu Junyi, the squire of the Ministry of Ministers, respectfully ask Your Majesty Sheng'an, long live my emperor, long live, long live." As soon as Zhao Xu got out of the carriage, he was already waiting for Lu Junyi outside the gate of the camp, and immediately took the generals in the forbidden army camp to bow to Zhao Xu
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am here to show the envoy of the Eastern Kharat Khanate, Gan Badu, and the envoy of the Uighur Khanate, Ahumail, the standard weapons of our Great Song Empire, so that the Eastern Khara Khanate and the Uighur Khanate, two of our brothers, have a clear direction of purchase." Zhao Xu said to Lu Junyi and the generals in front of him seriously. In fact, Zhao Xu had already said these words to Lu Junyi in the imperial study, and clearly told Lu Junyi to let him cooperate with him, so all that Zhao Xu is showing in front of Gan Bahu and Ah Hu Maier is that he is acting. At this time, Zhao Xu thought: Alas, in the 21st century of my later life, why didn't I know how to be an actor at that time, look at our acting skills, the bones of old dramas
"The minister has received news from the Ministry of Rites, and has ordered the soldiers to prepare the exhibition hall necessary to display their weapons, and ask Your Majesty and the envoys to move." Lu Junyi said to everyone in front of him with Zhao Xu's routine
Not far from entering the forbidden army camp, I arrived at the weapons exhibition hall, which is said to be an exhibition hall, but in fact it is a weapons warehouse in the forbidden army camp
Looking at the dazzling array of weapons and armor in front of him, it really opened the eyes of these envoys from the Western Regions, Zhao Xu personally took Gan Badu and Ah Hu Maier to the front of each booth, and explained to them about these weapons, and all the officials of the Ministry of Rites who followed behind Zhao Xu all took out their small books and charcoal pens to record Zhao Xu's words, very similar to the appearance of the three fat men of the Goryeo leaders of later generations. And the purpose of the officials of the Ministry of Rites is to learn the ways and means of their emperor and master to pit people, which is different from the three fat people.
"Two envoys, this Pu knife is the most basic weapon of my Great Song Empire's army, including all the weapons and equipment here, all of which have been forged by the special smelting and forging methods of my Great Song Empire, and have been stamped and forged by hundreds of refinements. Zhao Xu's words are always mixed, so that these visitors from the Western Regions can't figure out the truth or falsehood of his words, but since Zhao Xu dares to let them try the knife, he is naturally not afraid that they will try to have problems, with the continuous progress of the military reform and the reform of weapons and equipment in the Great Song Dynasty, the old standard weapons of the Great Song Army have been gradually replaced by weapons forged by hundreds of steel, as Zhao Xu said, although it is not as good as the weapons forged by Uzi Steel, but it is not much to shake. But the key question is which country can equip a million armies with weapons forged from Uzi steel. Of course, the weapons sold in front of him were not really weapons forged from 100 steels, but weapons with 50 refinements, because Zhao Xu did not fully believe in the Eastern Kera Khanate and the Gaochang Uighur Khanate, so Zhao Xu also had to maintain an absolute lead over them in the state of advanced weapons
The envoys of the two countries who tried the knife showed a lot of excitement, the hard granite knife stone left deep traces on the Pu knife, but the edge of the Pu knife in their hands did not even have a small chip or even a crack, so how could this not make them feel excited
"Your Majesty the Great Heavenly Khan, I don't know how much this kind of sword is, and how many of these weapons can we buy?" Ah Hu Maier asked after bowing to Zhao Xu
"This kind of Pu knife is the standard weapon of all the armies of my Great Song Empire, its demand is very large, and in order to reduce the loss on the battlefield, the workmanship of all our weapons is very particular, so its price will be relatively expensive, this kind of Pu knife is sixty pieces of silver per handle, as for how much you want to buy, it depends on how much you can afford." Zhao Xu said very seriously, and there were no impurities in his eyes, and there was no intention of deceiving people at all
And Lu Junyi and other generals who knew the approximate price of these weapons were biting their cheeks tightly while ensuring a serious face, lest their serious expressions suddenly turn into a **** smile. Since the Ordnance Department has already begun to use the standardized hundred refining manufacturing production line of water conservancy stamping, the actual price of this Pu knife in Zhao Xu's hand is only seven or eight silver coins (to be continued. )
