Seeing that Du Jianhe said that he would come to pick up the armor, Zhao Tieanan hurriedly turned around and avoided the armor to the side, so that Du Jianhe was empty. He said lightly: "I'm not tired, but I don't need to trouble you." ”

After speaking, he didn't care about Du Jianhe, wrapped the armor with a piece of cloth, and hugged it except for the workshop.

Du Jianhe stayed in place, his face was a little dark, he snorted, spat on the ground, and felt a little unwilling. He turned around, but said secretly in his heart: "It's okay to let him send it himself, this guy may not know that he has to report to Lord Zhou Bozhou first, if he sends it directly to Lord Dong." Hehe, that Zhou Bozhou, Lord Zhou, must be displeased, and he wants to give this guy a hanging. ”

I feel a little proud when I think about it.

really let Du Jianhe guess correctly, Zhao Tiean'er didn't think about asking Zhou Bo to report at all, he happily hugged the armor bag and entered the inner city. When you enter the inner city, you will be faced with the tall fence of the barracks, the gate is mighty, the wooden fence is closed, and the fight is strict. In the barracks, bursts of noisy voices sounded uniformly from time to time, although they were far away, but when they came to Zhao Tiean, it also made him feel fearful.

The people of this era always have a sense of fear of the army, and Zhao Tieanli is no exception.

He walked around the barracks, and thus walked a great distance, the equivalent of walking around the walls of the inner city.

On the north side of the school field, there is a huge wall that is five zhang long, three zhang high, and one zhang thick, which is purely built of huge bluestone, and looks extremely powerful and magnificent, extremely thick and tall. This wall is also the original left in the ruins of Dashigu, standing in front of the large-scale military general's mansion, Dong Ce's current official office is only about one-third the size of the original military general's mansion, but this wall is completely preserved. Otherwise, with the current manpower and material resources of the Rock Fort, such a huge building would not have been able to be built. Zhaobi acted as the north wall of the barracks, separating the large school field from the small square in front of Dong Ce's mansion, and also blocking the sight and sound, so as not to disturb Dong Ce's considerations.

It's a pity that the side of the shadow wall facing the door of the mansion was originally embossed, but after hundreds of years of rain and wind, the pattern has been seriously corroded and damaged, blurred, and it is impossible to see what is on it.

To the left of Dong Ce's mansion, that is, to the east, is the garrison, which is responsible for managing the army. On the right, that is, to the west, is Ling Shiya, who is responsible for managing the people. According to Dong Ce's assumption, these two yamen, one courtyard on one side, are directly connected to the front of Dong Ce's official residence, and it is also convenient to ask for a meeting.

Men on the left and women on the right, on the left and on the right, on the left and on the right. The Ming Dynasty has always been heavy on civil affairs and light on military forces over the years, but Dong Ce happened to fall one by one, the left is in charge of the army, and the right is in charge of the people. He released a very strong and obvious signal: In my Rock Castle, heavy martial arts and light literature, civil and martial arts.

At this time, the Ling Shi Ya and the Garrison Ya had not yet been built, and they were only a few simple houses used for office purposes.

It is also a fool who has a foolish fortune, when Zhao Tieanan came over, he happened to meet Zhou Bo coming out of the house, he saw Zhou Bo, and suddenly felt a thrill in his heart, and suddenly realized that what he was doing was very inappropriate.

Go over Shangguan and go directly to Shangguan's Shangguan, this is a big taboo!

"Lord Zhou." Zhao Tiean's anvil bowed and greeted respectfully.

"Lao Zhao? How did you get over here? Zhou Bo nodded with a smile and asked. He doesn't have any shelves, and he has a good impression of this Zhao Anvil, as for Du Jianhe, he has to check some of them, and he feels that person is too slippery.

"Back to Lord Zhou's words, some time ago, the frog beetle that the adult told me to build has been made, and the small one will be sent to you quickly......" Zhao Tie Anvil explained his intention.

"Drink, it's really heavy." Zhou Bo took the armor bag, his hands couldn't help but sink down, he glanced at Zhao Tiean, and said, "Let's go, you go with me." ”

"Yes." Zhao Tieanan was flattered and followed Uncle Zhou into the Qianhu Mansion. There are guards at the door, but they all know Uncle Zhou, so they are naturally allowed to go.

Zhou Bo and Zhao Tieanzhen entered the hall, waited for a while, and then heard a sound of footsteps from behind, Dong Ce was wearing a cotton indigo regular dress from home, and his big sleeves fluttered out.

He saw Zhao Tiean's anvil at a glance and said with a smile: "Is the green worm armor ready?" Not slow! ”

He was dealing with affairs in the back room, and as soon as he heard the report that Zhou Bo and Zhao Tieanan were coming, he hurried over. After all, he attaches great importance to the matter of frog beetles.

Zhao Tieanan hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and said what he had carefully prepared before.

He and the blacksmiths under him pondered for a long time before they remembered how to point out their hard work these days without creating a sense of pride in their achievements. It's really a bit difficult for these men who have always only sold their strength, but no one is stupid, and if they think about it carefully, they think about it about the same.

Dong Ce was in a good mood, and after listening to it with a smile, he got up and said with a smile: "What you did, the official knows it, don't worry." ”

He put the bag on the table, untied it, took out a pair of cotton armor from it, and took it in his hand and examined it carefully.

There is only armor, and there is no helmet, the main thing is to build a helmet, which is too troublesome, and with Dong Ce's current manpower, it is really not enough. In fact, the helmet does not need to be made by himself, Liu Ruozai has a large inventory there, after all, this thing is not easy to rust, and it can still be stored for a long time.

This pair of cotton armor looks quite shabby in his hand.

Jiannu's red satin copper nail copper leaf armor, with a heart shield the size of a sea bowl inlaid on his chest, glittered in the sun. The cotton armor is covered with copper nails, and there are iron leaves inlaid on the shoulders, chest, thighs and other vital positions, which looks like a cotton coat. Coupled with the black lacquer on their heads, the lightning rods with a length of more than a foot at the tips were erected high, and the helmets with black silk hanging on them, as well as the heavy weapons such as iron spears, axes, and sledgehammers in their hands, they looked extremely powerful.

The blue satin copper nail cloth armor of the Ming Dynasty, although it is slightly inferior in weight to the red satin copper nail copper leaf armor, and the defense power is also much weaker, but it is more fine and gorgeous. The whole armor is sky blue, and the copper nails on it are polished and shiny brass, and a large number of iron pieces are fixed in it. It is roughly divided into three parts, the chest and back armor, the shoulder armor, and the armor skirt. The chest armor is similar to a sleeveless blouse, the shoulder armor is shorter, only up to the elbows, and not below the elbows. The armor skirt was very long, hanging almost all the way up to the ankle or so just an inch or so. The front chest of the cotton armor, the shoulders and shoulders, and the left and right sides of the armor skirt are all embroidered with exquisite beast patterns. Yes, the legendary Biao. Along with the armor is a red drag, which is worn inside.

The silk collar is much shorter, the color is different, the copper bubble nails are more dense, but the nail leaves on the surface are less, and there are no heart guards.

And the self-produced and self-sold frog beetle in front of me, the cotton cloth on the outside has not yet been colored, and it looks a little dull yellow white. In terms of appearance alone, compared with those two, it is like a cloth cloth standing next to a rich merchant and a powerful person - simple and shabby.

But Dong Ce obviously won't just look at this.

He flattened the armor and pressed it hard, feeling extremely hard and thick. Then I touched the cotton cloth on the outside, as well as the edge of the armor skirt, and felt the rough and thick texture of the cotton cloth, obviously, the cotton cloth on the outside of this cotton armor was very thick, and I don't know how many layers were stacked layer by layer. The brass bubble nails used to fix the iron armor leaf inside, and the brass bubble nails exposed on the surface of the armor are also very dense, row by row, and there is hardly much vacancy. There are no heart goggles either, but Dong Ce doesn't care about this, he wears armor with heart goggles, and to be honest, that thing has more decorative meaning than practicality.

This set of armor is unpretentious, tough and thick, this is Dong Ce's first impression of this cotton armor.

But the things that should be, the details that should be, all of them. And the decorative ones are all gone.

Dong Ce still appreciates this design concept. As long as it's easy to use, it doesn't matter if it looks good or not?

The second impression of this armor is that it is heavy and quite weighty!

Jiannu's cotton armor weighs about twenty-three catties, and if it is converted into two catties in later generations, it is about twenty-seven and a half catties. The weight of the cotton armor of the Ming Dynasty is about eighteen catties, and the weights and measures of later generations are twenty-one and a half catties. And the armor in Dong Ce's hand now, according to his estimate, is counted from thirty-three or four catties to the least.

In other words, it is equivalent to about forty catties in later generations.

This number is quite staggering, you know, the weight of the green cloth iron armor is only this number.

"How much does this weight account for copper coins? What is the proportion of cotton? Dong Ce asked.

"Back to your lordship." Zhao Tieanan said respectfully: "Eighteen catties and two taels of copper coins, thirteen catties of cotton cloth, bubble nails and other things, a total of two catties and eight taels." The small one weighed exactly thirty-four pounds. ”

Dong Ce asked again: "Then, how much is the consumption?" ”

Zhao Tiean's anvil had put in a lot of effort before he came, and immediately replied: "If you go back to your lordship, the copper coins are still those, and they cost twenty catties of cotton." ”

Dong Ce nodded with satisfaction: "You are attentive." Zhao Tieanan hurriedly said: "The little one doesn't dare." Dong Ce secretly calculated in his heart, the private coinage he exchanged was about five grams or so, and one or two pieces of silver could be exchanged for one thousand and five hundred. At the beginning, 500 taels of silver were exchanged for 690,000 copper coins, which was more than 6,000 catties. Eighteen catties and two coins of copper coins are less than two thousand two hundred, and when they are calculated, they are less than one or two or five pieces of silver.
