"Armor, knives and guns, can't we make them ourselves?!"

The messenger asked angrily, suspecting that Buchen was insulting his intelligence. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Buchen still had that hippie smile, and he didn't mean to be angry at all, he licked his face without restraint and said: "My armor, swords, guns, bows and crossbows are different from other places in the world, except for some small parts, they are all made of steel!" All steel, do you understand what that means? ”

Because Charlemagne had imported some armor, swords and guns from the Buchen factory in Dongguo Jingshi before, and the envoy had also seen the finished products with his own eyes, he did not doubt the authenticity of these words, but these "goods" imported at that time were very rare and expensive, but the envoy said that he could provide them in large quantities, which made the envoy a little suspicious. (The control of the western shore of the Mediterranean is in the hands of the eastern governor's palace of the brown coat empire, and King Charles can only take the land channel if he wants to obtain the "goods" of his subordinates, but Bei'an is thousands of miles away from Kevin City?) Even if you don't sell it cheaply, the cost of transportation will become extremely expensive. Broken Army Press)

"Of course I know what that means, but no, can you guarantee that these armors and knives and guns are all made of steel?" The envoy frowned and asked, although he knew that Buchen had an efficient steelmaking technology, after all, the envoy had never visited Buchen's factory, and he had not seen Buchen's frantic steelmaking efficiency with his own eyes, because of the lack of intuitive impression, his confidence was inevitably insufficient.

"There's a door!" Seeing that the envoy did not categorically refuse, Buchen snickered in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Of course you can!" I can give you a tour of my arsenal right now, and seeing is believing! ”

Seeing that Buchen's expression was not fake, and that he did have the opportunity to witness it with his own eyes, the envoy did not dwell on this issue anymore, but asked about the price: "No, we don't accept the price before!" ”

Buchen laughed, knowing that the other party was referring to the original sky-high price, and hurriedly reassured: "How can it still be the original price?" Although it was not expensive to sell, after all, the distance was far away, and the money was spent on labor and travel expenses. Right now, I'm in the four towns of Osan on the border of the Eastern Continent, and the freight can undoubtedly save a lot! In this way, the three-foot knife that used to be fifty taels of silver is now five taels and one mouth, and the armor that used to be five thousand taels and one is now five hundred taels, what do you think? ”

In good conscience, this is really a blood-vomiting sale, the price is really not expensive, and after excluding labor and material costs, it doesn't make much money. However, the messenger was still not satisfied, and only shook his head and said, "These are still not worth the contribution of our country!" ”

Buchen rolled his eyes, and couldn't help but slander in his heart: "What your country has paid is just lip service, when it really comes to a crisis, such a long journey, when your reinforcements arrive, my TMD will be wiped out long ago!" And I really vomited blood and gave up! ”

It's just that he can't say that, so he simply kicked the ball again: "If you still want something, just say it!" ”

"I heard that Duke Buchen recently absorbed the remnants of the Pirate King?" Seeing that Buchen was so upright, the messenger immediately asked with a wicked smile.

Buchen had a hidden understanding, but he still pretended to be stupid and asked, "Yes, what's wrong?" ”

"The Western Empire wants the city of Litro." The messenger made a bid.

"Ciudad Litro?" Buchen's brows tightened.

"What? Isn't it possible? The messenger asked with a cold face.

"Not really!" Although he didn't know what the envoy was thinking, Buchen couldn't agree to this request at all, he ignored the envoy's face, and said bluntly: "Your envoy shouldn't know yet, the Immortal Kingdom has now seized the control of the sea in the Mediterranean, and it is still difficult for my fleet to protect itself, and I don't have the strength to go out at all!" In addition, the Undead Kingdom will invade the Western Continent in the near future, and the entire coastline of the Brown Empire will be attacked, and there is no occupation value at all! ”

"What?!" Although he was not well informed because of his deep inland, and the messenger had only recently learned of Duncan Lew's defeat and death, the news that the Undead Kingdom was about to invade the Western Continent still startled him! If this news is true, it is not only the negligence of these intelligence officers of theirs! The catastrophe of the Western Continent is also coming!

"Is this true?!" The messenger stared at Buchen and asked.

Buchen said solemnly: "It's true! A few years ago, I had seen Ming Zhengfa, the emissary sent by the Immortal Kingdom to win over the orc tribe, and he told me these things personally. In addition, I just captured a magic gunboat of the Immortal Kingdom a while ago, and the confession of the captain of that battleship perfectly proves the authenticity of this information! ”

"O my goddess!" The messenger gasped and got up from his chair, unable to sit still.

"Do you want to bring this news back to His Majesty Charlie as soon as possible?" Buchen asked with a look of concern.

"Of course! It is a matter of the survival of the nation and the race! How can you not hurry up and bring the news back? The messenger said urgently.

A sly smile appeared on Buchen's face: "What about our covenant?" ”

"The Covenant is fine! This was originally the emperor's intention. The messenger replied with some disobedience.

"Don't you think we're giving less now?" Buchen asked with a smile covering his mouth.

The envoy didn't have the heart to pay attention to the sarcasm in Buchen's words, he just stared at Buchen directly, and asked nervously: "Buchen, we just said it!" All-steel weapons and armor, at that price, you can sell us as much as you want! ”

"No problem!" If you don't agree, it's called a refreshing.

"In that case, I won't bother you!" As he spoke, the messenger turned and was about to run outside the parlor.

Buchen hurriedly took a few steps and grabbed him.

"Is there anything else going on with the no-minister?" The messenger asked, frowning, looking a little impatient.

"Your Excellency." Buchen didn't look anxious at all, and said slowly: "If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, if you run back like this, I'm afraid it will delay your efforts." ”

"And ...... you mean?"

"You rest here first, I'll let someone prepare a fast horse for you first, how can you go thousands of miles? How can you do it without a few good horses taking turns? Buchen said with a smile.

The messenger was not a good person, seeing that Buchen was willing to try his best to help him, naturally there was no reason to refuse, so he immediately stroked his chest and thanked Dade: "Buchengong, thank you so much!" I hope you will forgive me for the offensive remarks I have just made! ”

"It's okay!" Buchen waved his hand very generously.

After sending the messenger down to rest, and by the way, asking his men to gather some good horses, Buchen hummed a little tune and returned to the back houseβ€”although the messenger looked anxious, Buchen was not at all impatient. In fact, not only is he not impatient, but he is also in a very good mood, for no other reason, the most profitable business in troubled times is undoubtedly arms, and he has just finalized a large arms sales contract that may last for several years, as long as this transaction can go smoothly, at least half of the capital gap on his road to development and growth can be filled!

At this time, Fei Fei had already gotten up and was practicing archery in the yard, and there were also Xue, Dongfang Qinxin, Natalia and Lu Xueyu who were practicing together in the morning.

Buchen didn't hide it from them, and told them everything about what had just happened.

The girls were also very happy to learn that their husband's fortune plan had made great progress, and congratulated Buchen together.

Buchen was a little flustered, and was thinking about whether to announce it during the day~ When he was lewd, Diao Chan, the captain of the pro-soldiers, ran out again to stir up the situation.

Seeing Diao Chan hurriedly running into the yard, Buchen asked with some curiosity, "What's the matter?" ”

"Lord...... Lord, the show talents are making trouble! Diao Toad replied breathlessly.

"Talents?" After a little thought, Buchen knew who Diao Chan was referring to, and it was nothing more than the newly accepted "political commissars".

"What do they want to do?" Don't ask.

"There was a show that was beaten by soldiers! The show talents can't be angry, so they're making trouble! Diao Toad replied.

"Beaten by soldiers? Why did the soldiers beat them? Buchen felt more and more interesting.

"Because of that Xiu, he scolded the soldier a few words."

Buchen rolled his eyes, and could guess that some of the stinky problems on a certain Xiucai had not been cleaned, and according to his previous habits, he said something nonsense about "good iron does not hit nails, and good men are not soldiers", which provoked the soldiers and was beaten as a result.

Scholars have always been a group, and when someone is bullied, the rest of them immediately blow up, so they make a fuss together.

"What a big deal!" Buchen pursed his lips, "Go and pass on my order, expel that scolding Xiucai from the camp, and the soldiers who beat people will be beaten with twenty military sticks and punished with demerits!" The rest of the people who started the commotion have a demerit, and those who refuse to disperse are also twenty military sticks! ”

"No!" Diao Toad agreed, turned around and wanted to leave.

"Wait!" Buchen stopped her and added: "In addition, tell Gu Yousheng and Chen Ying that they will handle such trivial matters by themselves in the future, if you feel embarrassed, go to Lao You to discuss, don't bother me again!" Or they won't do it! I'll choose another meritocracy! ”
