Chapter 726 Business in the Barracks
ps: "The Leisure Tang Dynasty" asks for all kinds of support!
The air conditioner that constantly blows out cool breezes keep the temperature in the all-terrain car in a range that is neither high nor low and most comfortable.
"Senior brother, there are more and more orders. When will this end?" Yun Ye said with a bitter face as he looked at the Excel form on the tablet in his hand.
"What are you afraid of? We didn't ask someone to place an order. Just line up in the back." Li Anran, who was happily savoring a glass of ice grape wine, said without opening his eyes.
Although I had expected this answer to be the answer, Yun Ye's eyes were still very resentful.
There was no way, but during the period when they followed the army to fight, although the two did not intervene in the encirclement and suppression of the Qiang people, they started a business in the Zuowu Guard.
In theory, with the ability shown by Li Anran, it is too easy to do business.
But Yun Ye was speechless, his senior brother chose to help others build weapons so hard.
Well, Yun Ye also admitted that this deal is the most appropriate one for Zuo Wuwei.
I didn’t see that there were so many orders on hand that I couldn’t complete them at all. The most important thing was that the profits were terrifyingly large.
Take the slashing saber in Cheng Chumo's hand as an example. Not only is the material and production cost of the knife, but Cheng Chumo himself is responsible for the coal during refining, but the other party even handles the coal during refining.
Fortunately, there are coal mines in Longyou, and the current era has very little use of coal. Otherwise, this business might not be able to be done.
Unlike ordinary horse-cutting sabers, the so-called sabers made by Li Anran is more similar to the Miao sword in later generations in terms of shape.
At the same time, there is also a bit of the style of long-handled swords used in horse wars during the Qing Dynasty. In short, this sword with a somewhat curved curve is practical and the shape is quite beautiful.
Yun Ye was speechless, this knife made by himself and his senior brother, with almost zero labor costs, was sold at a sky-high price of 2,000 guan.
Although the prices in the second year of Zhenguan were far less than that in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, this was 2,000 guan. In later generations, it would be 2,000 liang of silver or 200 liang of gold.
After working for two days, he earned 2,000 guan. This speed of making money directly made Yun Ye have the idea of "There are stupid people here, there is a lot of money, everyone can come quickly!"
At the beginning, no one supported this expensive knife.
But after Cheng Chumo used this knife on the battlefield, he killed thirty-six people in a row. They all cut off weapons and people, and some even didn't even run away from the horse, Li Anran and Yun Ye's business became popular.
First, a group of military officers led by Cheng Yaojin and deputy general Niu Jinda placed orders one after another, and then some soldiers began to place orders.
Of course, these soldiers naturally could not buy a treasure knife like Cheng Chumo, but it did not prevent them from buying some ordinary goods.
What did you say? Will it be worth it to spend time on low-end goods if you don’t sell it without selling it with a high-profit sky-high price?
Under normal circumstances, it is indeed not worth it. But who did Li Anran gets out the casting method?
Depending on the type, make ten sets of molds. At that time, you only need to pour the refined molten steel into it. After cooling, grind and assemble it.
Although these batch-cast knives are completely incomparable to the high-priced goods of Cheng Chumo in terms of quality, they are also better than the knives used by the soldiers themselves.
As for the price issue, Li Anran, who knew that these soldiers were fighting for their lives, did not insist on asking for money. In addition to money, furs, medicinal materials, and even some spoils are fine.
If it really doesn't work, you can still keep your account. Even if you have to pay interest, you can get good weapons first and go to the battlefield. This interest is nothing at all.
After more and more people discovered the benefits of the new sword, not only did Yun Ye have more orders, but the morale of the entire Zuowu Guard army also became more and more powerful.
In the eyes of those soldiers, the Qiang people were no longer just the capital to make achievements, but also directly became living copper coins.
Considering that the price of steel knives is cheap, a large number of soldiers could not afford it, Ang Lee then developed the product of gun tip.
Compared with those knives that often take about one meter in length, the spear head that only needs about 30 cm is obviously much smaller in terms of material use.
With the gun tip, you only need to match the appropriate gun body. The lethality is not only not worse than the knife, but on the contrary, it is much stronger to a certain extent.
After all, the old saying goes well, one inch long and one inch stronger.
A knife more than one meter long faces a gun that is more than two meter long. As long as the gun body is not cut off immediately, the spear will basically win.
What's more, when Li Anran sold the gun head, he gave him a gun technique on the grounds of buying one for free.
The marksmanship is very simple, only one move, stabbing.
But just one move has benefited a lot from many soldiers who have taken new weapons to the battlefield.
Think about it, when the opposite side of both sides was opening the movie, the knife-holder was still rushing forward, but the gun-holder took the opportunity to stab him far away.
Even if not all enemies fell under this lightning-fast stab, even if the gun body was shortened, the Tang soldiers still had the chance to dodge and draw swords again at the distance between the two sides.
Not to mention that Li Anran intentionally or unintentionally revealed a way to use a gun array. Only a group of gunmen needed to form a formation. Is that effect? Oh hehe...
Anyway, since the promotion of the gun array, each time I kill the enemy, not only has the record of becoming bigger and bigger, but my own casualties are also getting lower and lower.
In this case, even if Li Anran directly handed over the orderer to handle the knife, gun, and assembly, the output limit still makes the orders accumulate more and more.
However, the supplies in the third carriage were also increasing, so much so that Li Anran had already planned to build the fourth carriage at the next station.
As the deal, Cheng Yaojin, the general of the Left Wu Guard, and Niu Jinda, did not support this transaction directly, but did not directly object to it, which shows his attitude.
Not long after, the Zuowu Guard army finally stopped its journey and began to set up camp.
Feeling that his carriage stopped under the control of Wangcai, Li Anran was too lazy to discuss with Yun Ye whether to hire some people to speed up the progress of building weapons, so she got off the car directly.
Then he turned over and stood on the top of the carriage, watching the dense army busying itself for camping.
Although Li Anran also knew that if he put all his strength into it, there would be no difference between the army in sight and the ants.
But looking at the scene in front of you, you have to admit that the Tang Dynasty's army is quite powerful.
Especially the Left Wu Guard army in front of us showed strong combat effectiveness and discipline under the leadership of Cheng Yaojin.
Take the example in front of you. If you are camping, if you are a general, if you only stay for a short time, you may have to do it.
But Cheng Yaojin is different. Even if he just stays for one night, the army will set up the camps and set them up well.
However, with Li Anran's eyesight, it can still be seen that this camping camp should not be the short-term.
He jumped out of the car and walked into the first car, and drove Wangcai, who was lazy, out of the car.
With this period of running-in, Li Anran and Yun Ye no longer have to know what to do like they did at the beginning.
Half an hour later, three camp tents were already erected next to the Sanjie carriage.
Two of them are where Li Anran and Yunye rest, while the other is specially used for business purposes.
After the tent was built, Li Anran drove the four-wheel all-terrain car out of the middle carriage through the carriage board.
After parking the car between two adjacent tents, one of the doors on both sides was removed and then aimed at the windows that were specially descended on the tent.
In this way, as long as the car's air conditioning is constantly stopped, it can provide cool air conditioning to the two tents continuously.
Thanks to the current season and environment, the source of solar energy is very sufficient. In addition, the high-energy battery system on the car can last a long time if the air conditioner is just a day of sunshine.
Under normal circumstances, once the camp here is built, someone will soon come to inquire about the weapons, but this time it is Niu Jinda, the deputy general of the Zuo Wu Guard.
