Chapter 864: A new look
Although there was no way to do things at this time, Jiang Zhuo couldn't let the [Penglai Pavilion] withdraw too easily.
"Let the three hundred cavalry go with no core and no lungs, and go to various places in Jian'an County to pretend to find out information, mainly to preserve ourselves, and make the illusion that we want to storm Jian'an County after the withdrawal of [Penglai Pavilion]."
Jiang Zhuo is not afraid that [Penglai Pavilion] will not be fooled, the current situation is that Sun Ce was dragged in Wu County by the Yellow Turban Army.
No one knows how long Sun Ce will be held back, but the foundation of Wu County has been destroyed, even if Sun Ce can defeat the Yellow Turban Army and retake Wu County now. He will also need at least a week to restore order in Kure County and prepare military supplies.
[Lingyun Palace] took advantage of this opportunity to take Jian'an County, and when Sun Ce led the army to attack from Xindu County, [Lingyun Palace] could send troops from Jian'an County to attack Sun Ce's army's back road and attack their grain routes.
And vice versa.
It would have been better if Sun Cejun had divided his forces to attack from two sides. The disadvantage of the [Lingyun Palace] was too serious, and Jiang Zhuo wished that Sun Ce's army would divide his troops, so he could concentrate his superior forces and defeat one of the armies first.
The mosquito nodded and said goodbye, and Jiang Zhuo walked around Fuhu City. After the temporary truce in the [Lingyun Palace], the prices in Fuhu City gradually calmed down.
Although Fuhu City belonged to Jiang Zhuo, the merchants were bound to do something to hoard supplies and raise prices when they were fighting. Jiang Zhuo is nothing more than pulling out more than a dozen typicals, pulling them into the blacklist, and letting others restrain themselves.
If you really want to be more serious, it is estimated that thousands of game merchants in Fuhu City will be blacklisted.
After the inspection, Jiang Zhuo went to Yungai Peak, and along the way, there were a steady stream of large trucks transporting large quantities of metal ore from cargo ships on the waterway outside the mountains to Yungai Camp.
The function of the Yungai furnace is indeed very good, shortening the forging time and improving the success rate of forging, but the only thing that gives Jiang Zhuo a headache is its location. Yungai Peak is a bit dangerous, and the nearby mountain roads are not wide, and some places can only accommodate three or five people in parallel, and it is not easy for a carriage to pass.
Jiang Zhuo tried his best to get ore from [Qingzhou Gang], [Jianji World], Changsha County, Lead Mountain and other places, and worked hard to lower the price, but all the money saved was smashed on transportation.
"Helper."
Walking into the cave where the furnace is located, a wave of heat is coming. Hundreds of people inside were busy, all sweating profusely.
The purple fox's tail was engrossed in carving patterns on the armor, and even if the others greeted Jiang Zhuo, she didn't hear it.
Jiang Zhuo waved his hand and pulled a person aside to ask questions. Five days ago, the entire furnace was fully developed, and only 100 flawless heavy armor sets were created.
But that was only because it took too much time to prepare for forging heavy armor equipment, and it took them a lot of time just to fire the pottery steel-filled molds. Now that thousands of molds are in place, the furnace can be fully engaged in forging the armor, and the efficiency is much higher.
"According to Gao Shun's requirements, we concentrated on creating another 700 sets of heavy armor suits and sent them to Gao Shun." The person in charge replied conscientiously, "Now we have been building helmets in order to maximize efficiency, and we are going to build 500 helmets before creating the next part."
The previous 500 bracers and 500 upper body armor have been forged, and it is expected that in five days, we will be able to produce 500 heavy armor sets. It should take almost a month to complete all the tasks. ”
"So slow..."
Jiang Zhuo was a little dissatisfied, although he had overestimated the time required as much as possible before the construction began, he didn't expect that with two great forgers, the efficiency would still be so low.
The person in charge sweated on his forehead, this speed was still slow, and they all already felt that it was fast. The furnace is now burning day and night, and the more than 2,000 workshops in Guixi County that burn charcoal and bamboo charcoal are not even in time to deliver fuel here.
Jiang Zhuo glanced at it and found that everyone in the furnace had a tiredness on their faces that could not be concealed. Even if Jiang Zhuo arrived, they still couldn't hide it if they wanted to perform well.
"I will personally take out 100,000 yuan and distribute it to the brothers who are working day and night in the furnace. Let everyone work harder, if the work can be completed within 20 days, I will take out another 200,000 yuan to reward everyone. ”
There must be brave men under the heavy reward, although none of the brave men present, but there are bonus incentives, and everyone's spirit should be more excited and more concentrated. It may be possible to avoid many mistakes caused by fatigue and reduce the failure rate of forging.
The person in charge nodded excitedly, 100,000 yuan will be divided, and each person can get 800 yuan on average. If the task is completed, each person can get another 1,600 yuan, which is already a very generous bonus.
Then Jiang Zhuo didn't disturb the preoccupied purple fox, left Yungai Peak, returned to Fuhu City, and concentrated on being a hard laborer.
went to Yuzhang County to lead the team to fight two small commander-level bosses, led the team to complete a bounty commission with a bounty of up to 100 gold coins, and even went to the Fuhu City dock to help carry the goods when he had nothing to do, and it was not a problem at all to have a top five with his attributes.
Although Jiang Zhuo didn't do much, his personal efforts also greatly boosted the morale of the gang. In one day, [Lingyun Palace] completed 8% more commissioned events, spawned 11 more bosses, transported 5% more supplies than normal, and so on.
Don't look at the increase is not large, but the base is large. For this reason, [Lingyun Palace] earned more than 600 gold coins in one day compared with normal circumstances. And this is only the income of the gang, and the remuneration for various jobs actually helps the people take the lion's share, and the gang only divides the share ranging from 10% to 50%.
If you have more money on hand, you will be able to invest more money in replenishing and restoring your own combat effectiveness, and the faster you will recover.
After five days, the [Lingyun Palace] not only had a new look up and down, but also the gang had more funds on hand. The depleted liquidity and empty warehouses of supplies are finally a little more abundant.
Under the leadership of Jiang Zhuo, the cohesion of the [Lingyun Palace] was unprecedentedly strong. The gang members all know that a big battle is coming about the future status of [Lingyun Palace] and the situation in Yangzhou.
After this battle, either the [Lingyun Palace] will disappear, or it will be the king and hegemon in Yangzhou.
The [Lingyun Palace]'s combat power and funds recovered so quickly, which was completely beyond the estimation of [Slashing Chiyou] and [Penglai Pavilion]. Ziang has been troubled by Jiang Zhuo recently, and Jiang Zhuo often accepts the commission of Jian'an County and runs to Jian'an County in person.
In addition, he had no core and no lungs and wandered around Jian'an County with cavalry all day long, so he didn't dare to withdraw his troops. In the end, 50,000 of the 100,000 troops stayed on the southern edge of Jian'an County, and Ziang did not dare to withdraw all, for fear that Jiang Zhuo would personally lead the army to attack Jian'an County and defeat the whole Jian'an with lightning.
