Chapter 3 The battalion commander's chest muscles are really good (3)

"What do you want, sir?" A shopkeeper in the blacksmith shop saw Zhou Weiqing dressed as an archer, and immediately greeted him. Although the profession of blacksmith is not lowly, it is still far worse than the military, the most respected in the Tiangong Empire is a few soldiers in addition to the pearl master, and the Tiangong Emperor, who has a total establishment of only 50,000 people, has defeated foreign invasions many times, and is deeply loved by civilians. Although Zhou Weiqing looks young, this standard military uniform is still very uplifting.

Zhou Weiqing asked, "Are you the boss here?"

"Yes, I am. Although our shop is not too big, it is a time-honored brand in our Tiangong City, and the reputation is not good, you want to do something, I count you cheaper. Anyway, you are also here to protect your family and defend the country!"

Zhou Weiqing smiled, raised his hand, took off the hood on his head and handed it to the boss, looked outside, and then came to the blacksmith shop owner, and said mysteriously: "Boss, I am the quartermaster of the third battalion of the fifth wing of the emperor." This time, it was our battalion commander who asked me to come out and build something, if you do this thing well, you don't need to talk about the benefits, right?"

The boss hesitated for a moment, and looked Zhou Weiqing up and down a few times, although the archer in front of him was a little younger, but he had a simple face, no matter how he looked at it, he was not a treacherous person, let alone a liar.

Zhou Weiqing lowered his voice and said: "You don't know about our three battalions, as soon as you talk about our battalion commander, you will understand, our battalion commander is the first beauty in the empire, Shangguan Bing's son, Lord Jue." You can go and ask. ”

Hearing Shangguan Bing'er's words, the blacksmith shop owner's eyes suddenly lit up, "Sir, what does Shangguan Bing's son Lord Jue want to do?" Shangguan Bing'er is a myth to ordinary civilians, she was born among civilians and was known as the goddess of civilians. This loyal boss would never believe that someone would use Shangguan Bing'er to deceive people, otherwise he would be spurned by all the civilians, how could he know that the person in front of him was also a viscount. If Shangguan Bing'er knew that Zhou Weiqing was actually using her name to fool her, I don't know if it would really make this guy unable to be a man.

Zhou Weiqing said: "We need a metal that is extremely hard, but the lighter the weight, the better to build things. And quickly, today. You need to rush to work immediately, money is not an issue. As he spoke, he took out the salary he had just received and slapped the gold coins on the table.

Zhou Weiqing, this guy doesn't need to cultivate since he was a child, and his cunning mind is by no means comparable to his peers, and the reason why he pulled the tiger skin of the beautiful battalion commander is because of speed. Normally, there is a queue at the blacksmith to build things, but he can't wait.

The blacksmith shop owner immediately nodded and said, "No problem, we happen to have precious titanium alloy in our shop, and this thing is refined by Master Yizhu of the Fire System." Although the price is high, it is exactly the characteristics you want. However, the price is also relatively expensive, and one kilogram of titanium alloy costs ten gold coins. In this way, for the sake of Shangguan Bing's son, Lord Jue, I will charge you a cost price, seven gold coins per kilogram. How is it?" When he saw Zhou Weiqing take out the money, he already completely believed in this honest-looking young man.

Hearing the words titanium alloy, Zhou Weiqing's eyes suddenly lit up, he had heard of this thing, he had a set of armor made of titanium alloy, not to mention the light weight, and extremely tough, it was one of the best materials for forging weapons and equipment. I was overjoyed at the moment, "Okay, that's it." That's what I'm going to build. As he spoke, Zhou Weiqing handed the hood in his hand to the blacksmith shop owner.

The boss was stunned for a moment, "Isn't this a hood?"

Zhou Weiqing nodded, and said: "It is to make it look like a hood, do you think! When we get to the battlefield, what we archers generally have to face is the enemy's bow and arrow, if the hood is replaced with titanium alloy, can the arrows thrown by the enemy still hurt us? Moreover, I ask to make a handle made of multi-layer canvas inside the hood hat, so that when I hold it in my hand, it can become a shield." ”

Hearing Zhou Weiqing say this, the blacksmith shop owner's eyes suddenly lit up, this is completely feasible, but titanium alloy is so expensive, can it assemble all archers?

Zhou Weiqing had this idea early in the morning, when he was fine at home, he loved to ponder some strange things, when he signed up for the army before, the captain of the soldier oil squad said to him that the archers were the safest, that was simply a fart, Zhou Weiqing, as the son of the marshal, how could he not know that the archers, especially the longbowmen of the Heavenly Bow Empire, were one of the most lost troops on the battlefield. The attack power of the longbowman is extremely impressive, so it is sure to be a priority for the enemy. This is not uncommon, and the reason why he still chooses this class is because he has a way to deal with it, and archers really don't need to be hand-to-hand.

He had this idea when he was eleven years old, and transformed the longbowman's hood into a shield, which was extremely simple to use on the battlefield, and when the opponent attacked, he only needed to crouch down, curl up as much as possible, and then lower his head, and the opponent's bow and arrow would almost be blocked by this hat. Ordinary people will never be able to think of this kind of idea, only a guy like Zhou Weiqing, who is naturally afraid of death and has a lewd heart, can think of it. He also wanted to tell his father, but every time he saw his father's serious face, he couldn't speak, God knows if his father would approve of his suggestion, and besides, ultra-light metal is not something that the entire army can equip.

"Admire, this must be the Viscount's idea. It's so creative, okay, we'll take this job, I'll let everyone hurry up now, and I'll do it by tonight. When the time comes, I will be charged according to the amount of materials used, and I don't want your salary. Count you six gold coins and a kilogram of titanium alloy. ”

This is the benefit of flickering, you don't need to open your mouth, people will take the initiative to reduce the price, Zhou Weiqing is extremely proud in his heart. As for this boss transferring such obscene ideas to Shangguan Bing'er, he didn't care. Safety first.

"Boss, do you have any other items made of titanium alloy here? "Zhou Weiqing has never even heard of the price of six gold coins and one kilogram of titanium alloy, as far as he knows, the normal price should be ten gold coins to twelve gold coins a kilogram. If you are likely to go to battle after entering the army, it is always good to prepare yourself with more armor.

"You're really asking the right person, I also have a titanium alloy inner armor here, which is made of titanium alloy and woven with the tendons of the Heavenly Beast Demon Snake. Light and close-fitting, the bow and arrows of your longbowmen are more than enough. As he spoke, the boss walked behind the counter and pulled out a tray with a shiny silver inner armor on it.

Zhou Weiqing unceremoniously grabbed the inner armor into his hand and shook it away, this is a half-body inner armor, which can protect the entire upper body including the arm, the silver armor is shining, and more importantly, it is lightweight, less than two kilograms at most. That's the benefit of titanium alloys.

Seeing this thing, Zhou Weiqing couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Okay, this is good, I want this." I guess it weighs about a kilogram. Boss, don't worry, I won't let you suffer, even if it's two kilograms. Here's it, that's twelve gold coins. As he spoke, Zhou Weiqing had already quickly taken out twelve gold coins and lined them up on the table.
