Chapter 298: Begging for a saddle Lu An holds a grudge
Chu Yin, Lu Mancang, and Mu Cun slowly walked to the war horse in the direction of Lu An's finger, and only then did they notice that the war horse of Lu An and the others seemed to be different.
Yes, Saddle!
Rubber saddle!
Before that, they had never seen this black saddle, and it wasn't until Lu An mentioned it that they saw the difference from an ordinary saddle.
In addition to the dark color, the whole saddle is much thinner, and when you touch it, it is slightly elastic and can feel light.
Seeing this, the three old fellows immediately became interested, turned over their horses, and tried to ride in the entire wide courtyard.
After five or six laps, the three of them finally jumped off the war horse reluctantly, still with an unfinished expression on their faces.
This result was expected by Lu An.
After all, even a woman like Xiaohong, who had just been tortured, felt more comfortable after riding a war horse with a rubber saddle than riding a carriage.
"Nephew, what kind of material is this saddle made of?"
Chu Yin asked curiously while stroking the saddle.
"Rubber, it's the black protective layer on the outside of those glassware that I sent before, the same material as it."
"This saddle is so good!"
Chu Yin kept approving, "The wooden saddle we used in the past was too sloppy, and in less than a day, my legs were sore, and the inner sides of my legs were worn out."
This rubber saddle is not only lightweight, but also slightly elastic, and it is very comfortable to ride, even if you travel for three days and three nights in a row, you will not feel tired.
If all our cavalry were to wear this kind of saddle, their combat effectiveness would definitely be greatly improved. ”
Lu Mancang and Mu Cun also echoed each other, and they were amazed by the new saddle that Lu An made.
Lu An said with a smile, "Uncle Chu is right, the little nephew is already preparing to produce this rubber saddle in large quantities, and I believe that the market will not be a problem." ”
"Needless to say?!"
Chu Yin's eyes became brighter and brighter, "As long as you have led soldiers to fight, you will think of the preciousness of this rubber saddle."
By the way, virtuous nephew, if Xia Gang or the Turks bought this saddle from you, you wouldn't have sold it to them too, would you? ”
"Why don't you sell it?" Lu An smiled indifferently, "I do business and make money, as long as the silver is in place, of course I will sell it." ”
When Chu Yin, Lu Mancang and Mu Cun heard this, their faces became more and more ugly.
"Virtuous nephew, you must know that we are the remnants of the great world!
How can we give up the foundation of reviving the great cadres because of a little yellow and white thing?
We can't even use such an important strategic material to fund the enemy! ”
Lu An spread his hands, "Uncle Chu, the little nephew is just an ordinary businessman, and he has never thought about any revival of the big cadres, you must not give the little nephew such a big hat."
Of course, Uncle Chu has always taken good care of his little nephew, and the little nephew will never dare to forget this love.
Don't worry, after you go back, your little nephew will send someone to send five hundred pairs of rubber saddles, and you won't take a penny, how about it? ”
Chu Yin and the three of them were naturally happy, but they were still quite dissatisfied with Lu An's idea that he didn't want to revive Da Qiankun, but they didn't know how to persuade them for a while.
"Virtuous nephew, I'm afraid five hundred pairs of rubber saddles are not enough, let's discuss, how about adding another five thousand pairs?"
"What?!"
Lu An's eyes widened instantly when he heard this.
Too greedy!
Knowing this, he would not be so generous, and whoever asked for a saddle would always bring the silver first!
"Uncle Chu, as far as my little nephew knows, you have been active in the Jiangnan area, mainly infantry, and then the navy, and there are only about a thousand cavalry when you are full.
The raw materials of these rubber saddles are not easy to come by, that is, the five hundred pairs of saddles promised to you, if they are sold to outsiders, they will cost at least 30,000 taels of silver!
No, no, up to 500 pairs.
If you put more of it, your nephew will go bankrupt! ”
Lu An didn't agree, of course, the so-called capital was naturally nonsense from his mouth.
It's just that he is also helpless, if he doesn't say so, I'm afraid he will really be opened by the lion of Chu Yin.
Chu Yin rubbed his hands and smiled awkwardly, "Virtuous nephew, uncle also knows that it is a bit too much to ask you for so many saddles.
It's just that my uncle didn't want these saddles for himself.
As you know, we still have a black armor army of nearly 5,000 people in the north.
Under Pu Zhen's training in the past few days, the combat strength of the Black Armor Army is amazing, and even the Turks have to avoid its edge when they encounter it.
That's the most important force for our rejuvenation!
If Pu Zhen is allowed to replace all his black armor troops with this rubber saddle, its combat power will definitely increase greatly again!
Seeing that the situation in the Central Plains is becoming clearer and clearer.
Between us and Xia Gang, the so-called alliance between us and Xia Gang will end soon, and maybe we will meet each other one day.
At this critical juncture, it is too important to improve the strength of the Black Armor Army.
Uncle knows that you don't want to get involved in our affairs, and he doesn't want to do it anymore, just leave those things to us to do.
We don't have any other extravagant hopes, and my uncle has never begged you for anything else, but this time, my uncle really begged you once, for the sake of the Black Armor Army, for our revival of the great cadre cause, just give us 5,000 saddles! ”
After Chu Yin finished speaking, he was afraid that his weight would not be enough, so he secretly glanced at Lu Mancang and Mu Cun.
"An'er, what Brother Chu said is right, the three of us old guys have been working hard for the revival of the Great Dry in the early years, but from beginning to end, we have never made any demands on you, nor have we meant to pull you into the water.
Now that you have the ability to help us, you just need a little saddle, isn't that okay? ”
"Yes, An'er, ask yourself, Brother Chu is not bad to you, don't you want to help with this little help?
Besides, Brother Chu is not for his own selfishness, but only for the revival of Daqian, so he has to make this request to you. ”
The three old guys pleaded at the same time, and Lu An felt a little uncomfortable.
Just a rubber saddle, not to mention a thousand pairs of horses, even if it is ten thousand pairs, he can take it, and it is not difficult at all.
It's just that I thought of giving it to Pu Zhen......
"Uncle Chu, you don't have to say more."
Lu An made up his mind and said ruthlessly, "If Uncle Chu is in need, I, Lu An, will never frown, even if it is bankrupt!"
But, let me give it to Pu Zhen? Hehe!
Dream! ”
"Uh-why?" Chu Yin was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Lu An puzzled.
As for the little contradiction between Lu An and Pu Zhen, he naturally didn't know about it.
Mu Lingfeng, who was on the side, briefly told Pu Zhen and Lu An about what happened in the Western Regions and what happened in the Turkic Golden Mountain.
"Pu Zhen, bastard!"
"It's bold!"
"Doesn't this guy want to live anymore!"
"It's not that his wings are stiff, this kid wants to turn the sky upside down!"
Chu Yin, Lu Mancang and Mu Cun scolded one after another after listening to Mu Lingfeng's account.
The more Lu An listened, the more comfortable he felt, and he also echoed, "That's right, I think that guy also has hard wings, so he took away his military power and asked him to go back immediately to make amends to Uncle Chu!" ”
