Chapter 822: Equipment
Yan Liqiang immediately agreed to the man's invitation, and then the three of them walked towards the side set together......
"My name is Zuo Yuquan, this is my brother Xu Meng!" The man who invited Yan Liqiang introduced the names of him and the strong man beside him to Yan Liqiang as he walked, "I don't know how to call the little brother?"
"My name is Wang Baoqiang!" Yan Liqiang said a name without blinking an eyelid.
"Looking at the appearance of the little brother, it shouldn't have been a ranger for a long time, right?" Zuo Yuquan chatted with Yan Liqiang as he walked.
"Oh, how so?"
Zuo Yuquan smiled slightly, "The rangers who came to Qiyun County this time to enter the Gulang Grassland rarely came alone, I have been a ranger for a long time, and there are always a few friends and partners, this kind of thing, it is more stable to ask friends and partners to come together, unless it is the top person among the rangers, he will act alone, I see that you are not very old, and you are here alone, so just guess it!"
Yan Liqiang stopped, and laughed, "Brother Zuo is indeed an old Jianghu, with sharp eyes, I have indeed been a ranger for a long time, this time I heard the news of killing Hu Ling, so I came to Qiyun County to try my luck, thinking that if I pick a few more heads of Shatu dogs and black dogs, I may not have to worry in the next life!"
"Haha, it's all the same, the people who came to Qiyun County this time, who doesn't have this kind of thought, now this ranger of the Han Empire, it is estimated that he came to Qiyun County if he didn't go to the land of Gyeonggi, I have a few friends, and a few days ago they invited me to go to the Imperial Capital to make a fortune, I heard that there are still a lot of gold and silver treasures in the Imperial Capital City, and it is important to enter the city, whether it is the palace compound or those mansions, the things in it, as long as you see it, it is yours if you can take it out, and many people have made a fortune......
"I've heard about it too, so why doesn't Brother Zuo go to the Imperial Capital City?"
"I used to be active in a region of Yaozhou and Zhongzhou, to go from Yaozhou and Zhongzhou to the middle of the imperial capital city thousands of miles, to pass through many states and counties, those states and counties are now a little unpeaceful, some chaos, either the White Lotus Sect is making trouble or there are powerful bandits making trouble, many places have been blocked and cut off, if you really want to go to the imperial capital, you have to go through many checkpoints on the way, even if you go there, I heard that the entire land of Gyeonggi is like a ghost at this time, millions of people have a strange disease, all of them have become walking corpses entrenched in the land of Gyeonggi, unless it is a top person, otherwise before you get to the capital city, you will lose your life on the way, that difficulty, It is tantamount to killing back and forth in the army of millions, the gold and silver treasures in the imperial capital are certainly attractive, but it is also necessary to have a life to get it, if the life is gone, what is the use of those things, compared to it, it is much more interesting to come to this Qiyun County, I heard that the wealth accumulated over the years among the nobles of the seven departments of Shatu is also very huge, no less than those wealthy families in the imperial capital, cut off these miscellaneous heads, gun their things, not only to make a fortune, but also for the country, if you can be famous on the hero list, wouldn't it be better, this is a good thing for fame and fortune......”
"Brother Zuo's words can be said in my heart......" Yan Liqiang smiled.
The three of them walked all the way and chatted all the way, and after a while, they came to the street where weapons were sold in the side set, just walked a few shops on the street, and suddenly saw two people in a shop selling bows and crossbows and arrows on the street, Zuo Yuquan smiled at Yan Liqiang, "That's it...... here", and then walked in.
When Yan Liqiang and they came, there were two rangers-like people bargaining with the boss in the weapons shop, choosing a machine crossbow, the two rangers one was thin and strong, the other was short and sturdy, and from behind, the thin and tall one was already carrying a bow on his back, and the man who was a little short and fat was holding a metal repeater with a crossbow arm made of spring steel produced by the Manufacturing Bureau, and he couldn't put it down, and bargained with the boss on the counter.
"Guest officer, this is the lowest price I can give, one hundred and eighty-eight taels of silver, I will let you two taels of silver, if it is less, I will lose money......" The owner of the armory shop turned the metal crossbow in his hand and showed it to the short and fat ranger, " Guest, look at this color, black and shiny, and then look at this crossbow machine, arrow box, there is no trace at all, what our store sells is first-hand goods, not like other stores that sell second-hand goods eliminated by the state army, this price is already very low......"
"One hundred and eighty-eight taels, it's still too expensive, shopkeeper, you are cheaper, I'll add some more money, one hundred taels won't be enough, we can buy a lot of things in your store, let's get cheaper......" The short and fat guy was rubbing the new paint on the metal crossbow, his eyes were shining and looking at the metal crossbow, he looked drooling, and he was fighting with the shopkeeper's price," In other places, even if it is a new strong crossbow, an ordinary one can only be bought for thirty or forty silver, and your machine crossbow sells for more than a hundred taels of silver, and the entire Han Empire is estimated to find a more expensive one than this......"
"Guest officer, you bought two pots of arrows and a dagger in my store, and it hasn't cost a few taels of silver, the arrow dagger I have given you the best price, I really didn't make any money, the price of this crossbow is really not preferential, if the guest officer wants to be cheap, why don't you look at the other crossbows in our store, those crossbows are also new, I will definitely give you the lowest price, and you can buy it for twenty or thirty taels of silver, but this, but it's really not cheap, this crossbow is a new product from the manufacturing bureau, the dragon tooth crossbow designed by the overseer himself, can be fired continuously, and it is a steel arm, more durable, it was only configured for the dragon tooth army before, and it was not taken outIn the last two days, the manufacturing bureau has only supplied new goods to the outside, and our small shop has also been lucky to get a few, there is such a machine crossbow in hand, at the critical moment, it can be compared to five ordinary strong crossbows, and it can take a big advantage in close combat, guest officer, you can go outside to inquire, before the Baishi Pass was eliminated by the Guardian of the 50,000 elite Shatu people, most of them fell under this dragon tooth crossbow......"
"Brother Mao, what kind of crossbow is so expensive, it costs almost two hundred taels of silver for one hand!" Zuo Yuquan opened his mouth as soon as he entered the store, and the two people who were bargaining with the shopkeeper at the counter turned their heads at once, the tall and thin man with the bow on his back was about thirty years old, his eyes were bright, there was a scar on his forehead, and he looked a little cold, while the short and fat man who wanted to buy a crossbow had dark skin and two upturned beards on his lips.
"Hahaha, Brother Zuo, come and take a look, I found something good in this store, a repeater that can shoot continuously, Brother Zuo came over to help me take a look......" As soon as the short and fat ranger saw Zuo Yuquan coming in, he hurriedly beckoned Zuo Yuquan over.
