An axe suddenly appeared in front of him. Even if the Tubo slaves were stupid, they knew what they should do. He lifted up his body and picked up the axe, and his eyes turned fiercely to Sanglan.

The material of this axe is not very good, but it is not the kind used by ordinary people in the homes, but the axe among all kinds of weapons. Therefore, as soon as the Tubo slave picked up the axe, his confidence doubled. He felt that no matter how powerful Sanglan was, he could not do anything to him without his hands.

When Sanglan saw that his opponent had got an axe, he did not show any dissatisfaction. Because he knew very well that it was not easy to fight for his freedom to win thirty consecutive games, so it was normal for Cheng Dazhi to try to create difficulties in the game. Similarly, he was still very confident in his ability. He believed that even if his opponent got the axe, he could kill the opponent within ten rounds.

"Did you make this axe yourself?" Li Hong asked, "The material is very rough!"

"Yes, Your Highness, is a weapon specially built for gladiator competitions. In addition to axes, there are also eighteen weapons like swords, guns, sticks, and sticks." Cheng Dazhi replied. Seeing that His Royal Highness was silent, he began to explain again, "Because the weapons of too good material are not conducive to their duels, these weapons were made of inferior materials."

After Cheng Dazhi said that, Li Hong smiled because he understood Cheng Dazhi's mind too well. The weapon material was too good. The duel was cut on a person, and it was probably a death. The weapon material was not good. If it was cut on a person, it might not necessarily kill people. In this way, both sides could still fight with blood. Wouldn't it be even more bloody and exciting?

In order to make the business of the arena hot, Cheng Dazhi really thought a lot! Li Hong thought so in his heart that he was very satisfied with the decision to hand over the arena to Cheng Dazhi to run.

Suddenly, Yan Zhuang spoke, "Can these weapons be used for war?"

"If you can, it means it is easy to damage and it is not sharp enough when fighting." Cheng Dazhi thought for a while and replied.

After hearing Cheng Dazhi's explanation, Yan Zhuang's eyes lit up. He whispered to Li Hong, "Your Highness, our caravans on the Western Regions said that the countries in the Western Regions wanted to buy a batch of weapons from the Tang Dynasty. I see that the batch of weapons created by Cheng Dazhi's are very suitable for sale to them."

Yan Zhuang is so bad that he actually wants to sell weapons made of such inferior materials for money. What a bad businessman!

However, the Western Regions are not short of gold and silver, and iron and salt. Therefore, their weapons are basically obtained through trading with the Tang Dynasty caravans. Therefore, as long as they are iron weapons, they generally do not have too high requirements for materials. Of course, it is not ruled out that they buy these weapons and then return them to the furnace and forge them again. However, doing so will not only be too expensive, but also take time. For some small countries in the Western Regions, it is not worth the loss. Therefore, the sales of iron weapons of the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions are very good. Not to mention in the Western Regions, even in Tubo, Japan, Fusang, Goryeo, Silla, Baekje and other countries, the weapons of the Tang Dynasty are also popular.

However, this means that the weapons sold by the Tang Dynasty in the past were fine products, because the iron tools sold to various countries in the Tang Dynasty were regarded as their own vassal states, and the Tang Dynasty was very sincere to them, and the weapons they gave them were the same as those used by their own army.

Now that Li Hong is present, he will not do such a stupid thing.

Therefore, when he heard Yan Zhuang say this, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and said, "This is good to pay attention. The Western Regions people want such weapons. As much as they want, they can give them as much as they want."

With the same price and different weapons, Li Hong knew very well how much money he could make on this batch of weapons. Making money was the second. He gave inferior weapons to the Western Regions. At that time, the Tang Dynasty wanted to completely include the territory of the Western Regions into his arms. If it was opposed by the countries in the Western Regions, once the war started, the inferior weapons in the hands of the Western Regions soldiers would become the life-induced talisman for the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty to harvest their lives.

This is a double-evil plan.

"How many weapons can military weapons be forged in three months for such weapons?" Li Hong asked.

Cheng Dazhi thought about it and replied, "It can probably build 100,000 horizontal swords."

Weapons made of this inferior material do not require too high technology, nor do they need too much complex technology. For military weapons supervisors who have already matured forging high-quality weapons, it is too easy for them to cast such inferior weapons.

"Just cast a hundred thousand pieces." Li Hong thought for a while and said.

"Hundreds of thousands?" Yan Zhuang took a deep breath and said to himself, "How much money do you have to make?"

The price of a horizontal sword in the Tang Dynasty was ten cents of money, but if it was placed on the people of the Western Regions, it could be sold for fifteen or sixteen cents of money. A hundred thousand horizontal swords were 1.6 million cents of money, which seemed not much, but because of the poor quality of the materials, it contained nearly 60% of the profit, which means that a hundred thousand horizontal swords could make 900,000 copper coins. Such a business was indeed very profitable.

But there was not much on the Western Regions. The copper coins of the Tang Dynasty were converted into gold. More than one million stagnant of copper coins were only tens of thousands of taels of gold, which was nothing to the Western Regions.

However, selling weapons not only sells horizontal swords, but also things like armor.

By doing this, Li Hongneng earned two million stags of copper coins from the Western Regions, and such a profit was also very huge.

"The people of the Western Regions have money. As long as you can think of ways to make money, they will never make enough money." Li Hong said with a smile, "I will leave this matter to you."

"No!" Yan Zhuang bowed and took the order, "Your Highness, please rest assured. I will do this matter properly and there will be no omissions."

"Yeah." Li Hong nodded slightly and said to Cheng Dazhi, "You can help Yanzhuang and get this done."

"No!" Cheng Dazhi also bowed to accept the order.

"Kill--" At this moment, the Tubo slaves in the arena had recovered their calmness, raised the axe in their hands and rushed towards Sangling.

The Tubo slaves knew Sangling's strength, so he didn't dare to be arrogant. At the beginning, they just wanted to test Sangling and see how Sangling would deal with him. He slashed at Sangling with an axe, and saw that Sangling did not attack, but chose to retreat to avoid the slaughter of Tubo slaves. The Tubo slaves saw three axes in a row, and Sangling all avoided one by one, which made Tubo slaves very excited.

In an instant, his self-confidence came back.

He knew that Sanglan was afraid of the axe in his hand, so he no longer cared about Sanglan's combat effectiveness, but rushed towards Sanglan regardless of everything.

"puff--"

The Tubo slave rushed towards Sangland very quickly, and the axe in his hand was also very fast. When his axe passed through Sangland's chest, Sangland's clothes were scratched, and a long hole was cut through the dark skin, and blood was flowing out in an instant.

"Kill him to death, it seems like he-!" The audience outside the field shouted. They were all people who bought the Blue Party to win, so naturally they liked Tubo slaves to kill Sanglan, because Sanglan was too strong. If he was allowed to continue duels, the money they threw in the arena would never be returned to their hands.

"Barbarian, don't be afraid. Go up and beat him to death, beat him to death!" The person who bought the Red Square Win also shouted loudly, cheering for Sangelan. They knew that the axe in the hands of the Tubo slaves was deliberately thrown out by the people in the arena. However, after the first two devastating victories, they were very confident in Sangelan's strength. They felt that even if the Tubo slaves had the axe in their hands, Sangelan could still solve him.

The sound insulation effect of the luxury private rooms is not very good. It is very noisy outside and the noise inside is also very loud.

"Why are these people so uneducated? It's noisy-" Yan Zhuang looked at the arena outside in disgust and whispered in a low voice.

Li Hong smiled and said, "They all bet money here. Now they are a group of gamblers. How many gamblers have you seen?"

"Yes, your highness can see clearly." Yan Zhuang said with a embarrassed smile, "I don't know if this Tubo slave can win this duel after giving the weapon."

"Dazhi, what do you think?" Li Hong asked Cheng Dazhi.

"This, I don't know much about this now," Cheng Dazhi said the truth.

During training, Sangling was able to fight six or seven Tubo slaves with bare hands, but he did not let other gladiators get weapons and then fight with Sangling, so he was not sure what the combat effectiveness of Sangling would be under the gladiator with weapons.

"This person is called Sanglan, right?" Li Hong asked.

"It's Your Highness, his name is Sanggelan, and he was the cavalry captured during several battles between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo in the Western Regions." Cheng Dazhi introduced, "I bought him for a lifetime in the slave market in the Western City."

"So cheap?" Li Hong said in surprise. Young and strong slaves like Sangland have always been paid for, and are cheaper than an ordinary horse!

"Your Highness, in the slave market in West City, women are more expensive than men, and children are more expensive than adults." Cheng Dazhi explained, "Adult men like Sangland, no matter how strong they are, the price is not too high. The money has always been very expensive. Many times, you can buy a strong slave like him for only six or seven hundred cents."

After hearing this, Li Hong didn't say anything, but just shook his head slightly.

Although he was very dissatisfied with slave trading, this was allowed in the Tang Dynasty and was within the scope of the law. Therefore, no matter how unsatisfied he was, there was no way.

Besides, when soldiers on the border fight, the soldiers captured by enemy countries in each war will be sold as slave traders. The money they get is the rewards they fight, and a part of them will be paid as pension money to the families of the soldiers who died in battle.

Therefore, selling slaves is part of the military's income, and Li Hong does not have the courage to complain to the military yet. (To be continued)
