Li Chengqian took two steps back, and only after leaving the old man for a distance did he feel a little relieved: "Father, you really can't do anything about this ten thousand times." Think about it, is 10,000 times enough to fight the Turks? Is 10,000 times enough to fight Tibet? Even if it's a disaster relief or something, 10,000 is not enough, right? ”

"But if you put 10,000 guan as a prisoner, the reward for you is definitely more than 10,000 guan, with this 'cannon' siege of the city is like destroying the withered and decaying, with this 'cannon' of the millions of generals in the army to take the head of the general like probing the bag, Datang no longer needs to use the lives of soldiers to face the enemy's swords and arrows, and all the enemies in the world will surrender in the face of Datang......"

"Stop, stop, you kid don't use your set to bluff Lao Tzu." Li Er interrupted Li Chengqian's YY without a trace of hesitation.

In his opinion, Li Chengqian's current state is like a magic stick who wants to brainwash people, this is awesome boasting, and he still says that attacking the city is like destroying the withering and decaying, and the first rank of general is taken in the million-dollar army, isn't this a trick played in front of Luban's door.

Is it true that Lao Tzu is a battlefield Bai Ding who doesn't understand anything? The soldiers on the battle array are fierce and dangerous, and if you want to survive, you all rely on your life, and everything else is nonsense.

This thing called 'cannon', not to mention the destruction of the siege, even if it can reach half the weight of the trebuchet, it is considered a successful weapon.

"Father, 10,000 guan is nothing to you? Or...... Erchen took things to exchange with you? "Li Chengqian really has no money to invest in the general prison now, so he can only grind with the old man with a dead face.

Throughout the ages, no matter when, as long as it is paired with a weapon, there is no one that does not cost money, and the cannon requires a large amount of metal to refine.

Metal is not something that can be dropped from the sky with a word, it must be dug out of the mountains, and then transported to Chang'an after rough refining, and then given money by the government. And if you don't give money...... the ghost will sell you the metal ore that he has worked so hard to get out.

Moreover, what Li Chengqian needs now is iron ore and copper ore, both of which are very strictly controlled in Datang, and Comrade Li, who has experienced a distribution, does not want the old man to misunderstand anything again.

There are soldiers and money in hand, if you build some copper and iron mines to smelt copper and iron, it is estimated that you will not be far from losing your head!

It is precisely based on this idea that Li Chengqian will think of deducting some money from the old man, anyway, he has just returned from Shandong some time ago after transporting 450,000 silver from Shandong, and it is not difficult for the old man to take out 10,000 taels.

Of course, there were originally 500,000 taels, but the rebate of 50,000 taels was given by Li Chengqian to Lao Yu 30,000 for shipbuilding, and the remaining 20,000 taels must be kept for future emergencies and cannot be spent all at once.

As a result, the old man was not fooled, and almost as soon as Li Chengqian's voice fell, he said: "Don't come to this set, yours is not mine, let me exchange the money for my own things, how good are you playing this time?" ”

"Father, it's 10,000!" Li Chengqian stretched out a finger, and after comparing it, he suddenly remembered something: "Erchen has a good treasure in his hand, why don't Erchen put you there as a mortgage?" But it's a bit more expensive. ”

"Oh? What baby? Let's listen to it, if it is suitable, I will give you 20,000 yuan. Li Er knows that his son has good things in his hands, and Li Chengqian's ordinary things are basically not put in his eyes, as long as he says that they are precious things, they are basically not lonely or fragments, they are all good things with a price.

Li Chengqian is not so easy to deceive, knowing that as long as the thing is in the hands of the old man, he can't get it back at all, so he stretched out a slap: "50,000, this thing is not easy to find now, you give 50,000, this thing is yours." ”

"Then you can keep it, I don't want it." A smile appeared on the corner of Li Er's mouth, and he shook his head and said.

"Don't, father, 40,000, 40,000?" Seeing that the business was going to be yellow, Li Chengqian withdrew a finger.

Pressing Li Chengqian's finger back, Li Erzhi said proudly: "Thirty thousand, look at your pitiful appearance, I will suffer a loss, otherwise your mother will say that I take advantage of children." ”

As a result, the third volume of "Luo Shen Futu" that Li Chengqian had just received was bought by Lao Li at a price of 30,000 yuan, and he never had a chance with him again.

And this is also Li Chengqian's cleverness, and at the last moment, he thought of "Luo Shen Futu", otherwise he planned to use "Lan Stop Collection Preface" as a mortgage at the beginning, if that thing was sold for 30,000 yuan, it seemed that he would suffer a little bit no matter what.

But although "Luo Shen Futu" only sold 30,000 yuan, Lao Li still added an article, five days later, to watch what kind of power this 'cannon' has in the military field outside the city.

Since Li Chengqian said that this thing is not in the sky and unparalleled on the earth, then its power must be extraordinary, that is, it is a semi-finished product, and the distance cannot meet the requirements, so the most important thing is to look at the power of the semi-finished product.

They are all old guys who have fought old battles, and they still have the ability to see the whole leopard at a glance.

Just like a knife maker, you don't need to look at what kind of knife is made, just look at the materials used to make the knife, you can know whether the knife will fit in the future, what the sharpness will be, and whether it is suitable for fighting.

Anyway, the 'cannon' tube is ready-made, and it can be fired with gunpowder, but because the materials are not up to standard, there will not be much gunpowder installed, so the distance cannot meet his ideal requirements.

"Cheng Qian, are you sure that 'cannon' is really like what you said? Don't lose face at that time, you must know that in five days, I will invite the veteran generals to see it together. In the Ganlu Palace, Li Er looked at the "Luo Shen Tufu" spread on the table, and asked Li Chengqian for the third time.

"Father, don't worry, it's no problem, it's just that there are still some problems with the distance of the 'cannon', and before there are no good materials, you can only hit a very close distance." Li Chengqian gave the old man a preventive shot in advance, and he was also afraid that the old man would say that he was not telling the truth and bullying the monarch or something.

"How are you going to spend your 30,000 yuan? Don't tell me that you have to use it to buy iron ore, although you don't dare to dig that thing yourself, but if you transfer some from your uncle, Wuji will never sue me within 100,000 catties. Li Er knew that his son was still relatively reliable in major matters, and after hearing his reply, he stopped asking questions and turned the topic to the issue of money.

"These Qian Erchen plan to take out half of the national reward, as long as they can come up with a good way, or come up with a better steel formula, the highest reward is 5,000 yuan, and the lowest reward is 1,000 yuan! Erchen believes that there will be brave men under the reward! ”
