"Don't be a hot weapon", recommended by conscience, the author Pastoral Cat is a hobby and compiler of this book.

Of course, this gentleman's literary style is really difficult to understand, in the words of the moment, how can there be such a brazen person in the world. Not to mention the side, the title of this book alone is cold. Well, maybe it's the reason why the bones are out of touch with the youth of the current era.

Count the romantic characters, and also watch the pastoral cat.

……..

It is supply and demand that determine the market.

The Bureau of War did not make a fortune on ordnance because they had no customers.

Originally, there was a long-term supply unit, but because the efficiency of the unit was not good, the personnel had already gone to the sea to work, and there was only an empty shelf left.

There is no place to sell the goods.

The Gunpowder Bureau is making a profit, and that's because the mine supervisors need medicine to blow up the mountain and open a mine.

But no one in the mine supervisors buys the guys who fight, they are going to make a fortune, and it is enough to help the ruffians and hooligans to follow and oppress the local gentry, where do they need any weapons and equipment.

The former Liaodong Dajue Gao Huai built a private Flying Tiger Army, but people have a way in Liaodong, and they can get the border army guys, so there is no need to buy it in the War Bureau. What's more, Gao Huai cooperated happily with Li Chengliang at first, and even the war horse was given by Li Chengliang, so there was no need to spend money in vain.

There are also more than 1,000 thugs under Ma Tang, the tax envoy in Tianjin, but the nature is completely the underworld of later generations, and a few scary guys can just be used as a façade, how can they spend a lot of money to buy a full set of military equipment. Moreover, Matang and the government offices of Tianjin and Shandong are doing well, and if there is anything, the health office will send someone to help him town.

The father-in-law in the rest of the country is roughly the same. It's best if it's okay, if something happens, their people don't care even if they have weapons.

The mine tax envoys don't want it, and the others don't dare to ask for it.

Possession of weapons is to be killed.

No matter how bold the war situation is, it is impossible to sell ordnance to strong people from unknown sources.

If there is no demand, there will naturally be no supply.

The War Bureau has always made a fortune not in ordnance, but in the construction of agricultural tools and ironware. Under the leadership of the successive fathers-in-law of the War Bureau, the construction and sale of farm tools in Gyeonggi have been managed by the War Bureau.

No matter who you want to make a stove and make iron, you have to have your father-in-law order your hair to be accurate, otherwise, you try.

In other words, the iron production and manufacturing around the Jingshi has actually become the self-reserved land of the War Bureau, which is equivalent to the existence of the nature of the guild.

In the Ming Dynasty, everything you want to do must be approved by the guild, and without the consent of the guild, you are a genius and you have to become an idiot.

Behind the guilds are the gentry, the government, the inner and outer courts, vested interest groups, the whole society, and the whole world.

Therefore, as soon as a number of traversers ran to the Ming Dynasty, they did this and that, and it was whimsical to be beautiful, in fact, you were not even qualified to pick up dung.

The dung line is one of the four major banks in the Ming Dynasty.

Grain, cloth, salt, dung.

In ancient societies, dung was a strategic material.

In addition to the 24 Yamen of the Inner Court, except for the ceremonial supervisor and the imperial horse supervisor, the rest of the departments and bureaus and supervisors do not have much funds, and most of them have to fend for themselves, and they also have to pay tribute to the inner treasury, so the tasks of each unit are very heavy.

Liangchen thought that the War Bureau sounded lofty, and it was directly linked to the research and development of weapons and equipment, and it must be a large unit in the inner court, and there was a lot of oil and water, so he had a request for them, so his tone was very low and his attitude was very soft.

But I don't know that the truth is the opposite. If he knew that his father-in-law Wei was the first buyer to meet in the leadership of the War Bureau for several years, it would be absolutely impossible to throw three hundred taels of silver to Eunuch Lu in vain, and he thought about going back and preparing another copy for Wang Dana.

When there is no market for the supply side, the demand side is the big man.

The good minister is upside down, and he doesn't suffer who suffers.

Why didn't Wang Dana accompany him, a fellow disciple, to come over, wasn't it because he was embarrassed to kill him Xiao Wei in person.

Changing to Eunuch Lu, his Senior Brother Wang is not so guilty in his heart, and he can explain it to Zhang Cheng.

Liangchen has a solid eye, completely unaware that he is already wronged, and will rummage around the warehouse, bent on getting some good quality things for himself, and still uphold the idea that money is not a problem, as long as things are good.

Rummaging around, I finally found a lot of weapons that could be used, there was everything, Eunuch Lu asked Liangchen how much he wanted, and Liangchen didn't count it, so he asked Eunuch Lu to let people pick out the ones that could be used first, and then look at the quantity.

This workload is not light, the eunuch in charge of the treasury went out and called a group of sergeants to come and help, and it took more than an hour, tired and sweaty, and finally got a batch.

But the number was still not much, about three hundred knives, more than five hundred spears, three or four hundred bows and a number of arrowheads, and two hundred shields. Cotton armor is the most, three piles, I don't know how many exactly.

In addition, the iron armor that Liangchen didn't want was also made out of twenty sets by a eunuch. Liangchen wanted him to move his things, but when he thought about it, forget it, just keep it, it's not much anyway.

The arsenal of the Central Army, there is only so much that can be taken out, and the good ministers are very frightened, but Eunuch Lu and the eunuchs of all sizes are not surprised, as if they are taken for granted.

It is no wonder that during the defense of Beijing, Chongzhen would believe in a monk like crazy, rather than believing that his own Beijing camp could hold the city.

A glimpse of the whole leopard, now it is still in the Wanli years, more than ten years later, how to get it.

The world is not peaceful, but the horses have been put in Nanshan, and the knives and guns have been put into storage.

The three major marches, the last glory.

Eunuch Lu was also frightened, because Wei Liangchen had not spoken, and he looked like he wanted all the equipment, just these equipment, I am afraid that the general soldiers of the town outside will not be enough, but I don't know what this kid wants to do so much.

Of course, what Eunuch Lu is most worried about is whether Xiao Wei has so much money, in case he forcibly moves Zhang Cheng out to get some credit, although he has already benefited personally, but there is really no money in the prison, and he can't explain it. As for what this kid wants to do so much, what does it matter to him.

After these eunuchs really didn't have anything good to move here, Liangchen turned around and asked Eunuch Lu: "Father-in-law, I don't know how to calculate this money." ”

As soon as he heard this, Eunuch Lu's strength suddenly disappeared, and he said with a smile: "Our family will not come with you to make a mistake, but will pick up the real ones and report them to you." Then he motioned to the eunuch to make an offer to the good minister.

The spirit of the eunuch in charge of the treasury was more than that of the eunuch Lu, and he immediately quoted the price to the good minister with a smile on his face.

"Five taels of swords, seven taels of swords, three taels of spears, nine taels of bows..."

Is it so expensive?

Liangchen was stunned there, no, in his previous life, didn't he say that a fire gun was only in his early two taels, how could he get here, a knife cost five taels.

What is the concept of five taels of silver, Liangchen Road to drink a bowl of tea is just a copper, take a car to Beijing dozens of big sons, Zuo'an Gate outside the cheap sister five copper plates, of course, refers to the regular business kind. And one tael of silver can be exchanged for hundreds of copper, in Liangchen's hometown, one acre of high-quality paddy field is only eight taels or four dollars.

A knife has to be exchanged for more than half an acre of paddy fields, and this high-priced good minister has blown his tongue.

"This price is not high, our family is really the cheapest for you, if it is someone else, how can I double it."

Eunuch Lu saw Liangchen's shocked face, knowing that he was too expensive, he couldn't help but explain. This price is actually a little higher than that of the nine sides, but for the war bureau itself, it is really not high. If this is a matter of Jingying, how can a knife get seven or eight taels of silver. The things that the inner court does have always been high and not low.

"I..."

Liangchen has a good face, and the cowhide was blown before, saying that as long as the goods are good, money is not a problem, and the benefit fee is three hundred taels, which will be embarrassing to say that it is expensive.

I had to bite the bullet and let the eunuch calculate the total amount of money.

The eunuch in charge of the treasury hurriedly took out the abacus and dialed it back and forth by dividing it by two.

On the side, there was a eunuch who reported the number of things, and Eunuch Lu considered that he had received the benefits, and he couldn't do it if he didn't give it, plus Xiao Wei might also need medicine, which was also a big head, so he asked someone to make up the number and wipe the fraction.

"Three hundred and forty knives, one thousand five hundred taels."

"One hundred swords, seven hundred taels."

"Five hundred spears, one thousand five hundred taels."

Three hundred bows, folded for two thousand seven hundred taels, and a number of arrows, folded for three thousand taels. The shield is two hundred, and the fold is two thousand taels.

A bunch of things are reported and counted, and it is already more than 10,000 taels.

Liangchen's face was fine, but he didn't speak.

"Father-in-law Wei, there are a total of nine hundred and forty sets of cotton armor here, and one set costs nine taels of silver, I don't know if you want it, or?"

There are a lot of cotton armor, the reason is that every year there is always a symbolic pose in Beijing for the imperial court to read, so the armor is still quite careful. At the very least, the cotton armor on the soldiers standing in front should not be too bad, so that a lot of this piece of the War Bureau will be preserved in case the Beijing camp can be replaced at any time.

Nine hundred sets of cotton armor, a set of four taels, this one alone, nearly four thousand taels, the largest thing. The eunuch in charge of the treasury and the eunuch Lu had a thought, worried that this little Wei father-in-law didn't have so much money, so they asked deliberately. It doesn't matter if you don't have money, just take less things.

Liangchen exhaled, flipped over the pile, and found that cotton armor was fine, so he gritted his teeth and said to the eunuch in charge: "I want it." ”

"Oh!"

The eunuch's mouth opened suddenly, and he was full of smiles. Eunuch Lu was also surprised, but his eyes were a little confused.

"Father-in-law Lu, don't worry, I will pay a deposit of 3,000 taels today, and send the rest of the money in a few days." Liangchen emphasized, "Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other." ”

"Okay, okay."

Eunuch Lu was relieved, there was a deposit of three thousand taels, and eighty percent of this transaction could not be run. If he goes back to the prison and divides it, he can at least get a few hundred taels into his pocket.

It's a good day.

"Erase it all from your books."

"Yes, father-in-law."

The eunuch in charge of the treasury smiled and wiped these ordnance from the owner on the account book, put down the account book, suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly walked to the side of Eunuch Lu and whispered a few words to him.

After listening to this, Eunuch Lu nodded, and came over to ask Liangchen if he was not interested in firearms, he had something better than firearms in his library.

"Oh, what is it?" Liangchen was excited.

"I've heard that the Japanese slaves are only afraid of birds. However, after three shots, it is difficult to continue, although its soldiers are numerous, there are few strong ones, but kill one or two hundred people in front of it, and the rest are all looking at the wind. So Xiao Wei, you don't have to pay too much attention to the firecracker, we have a better Franc cannon than the firecracker. Eunuch Lu said with a smile.

"Franc cannon?"

When Liangchen heard that there was still a cannon, he was a little overjoyed, and hurriedly asked Eunuch Lu to take him over to have a look. When I went to the ground, I saw that there were really more than 30 cannons, not heavy, one of them was about 300 catties, and it was very light on the ship. It's just that many cannons have already rusted.

There are a few of them, and they look like they are all old cannons.
