Poor family mother and son
Chapter 326 Cotton Armor
Chapter 326 Cotton Armor
Hearing so much from Bai Jiaxing, Zhou Xiaochuan hesitated: "Since this poor family is doing such a thing, I'm afraid they are all vicious people. If we don't pay a visit, I wonder if it will cause trouble?"
Bai Jiaxing said: "What I mean is, let them know that Sanshun and Bao Qingxiang are one with a big fanfare, and they will naturally weigh their weight and not make trouble."
Xiaobao doesn't think so: "A bunch of scumbags, don't visit! If you don't accept it, beat them!"
Zhou Xiaochuan pointed to the boat behind him: "Young master, even if you want to fight, you have to wait until the shipment is finished!"
Xiaobao was silent.
Gan Lai waved his fist and said, "What are you afraid of! Let Bai Jiaxing deliver the goods, let's beat them up!"
Look, Xiaobao is not the only one who is sharpening his sword.
Chu Yuan felt helpless towards Gan Lai.
The first time I met Gan Lai, it was the girl who suddenly appeared when he left the team to "let the water go". Although she almost scared him out of his wits, she also felt that she was abrupt.
Later, the girl came to Daxuan with him, and he still felt that it was a trouble, but he couldn't help paying attention to her, after all, the girl was pretty.
But when getting along, he couldn't help but take care of her and control her, and he couldn't explain why.
This girl is the same as Chu Qing, and also like his own sister. She doesn't talk much, but she is kind to those close to her.
If my sister had the ability to protect herself like Gan Lai and Chu Qing, she wouldn't have died, right?The older sister died when he was finally old enough to protect her.
He always has a feeling of intimacy with women who are similar in character to her sister, this is true for Chu Qing, and it is also true for Gan Lai.
He always tried his best to protect Chu Qing and Gan Lai.
But it's different, when he gets along with Chu Qing, he always wants to be naughty, and sometimes he even "competes" with Xiaobao, just like a child looking for affection.
When he was with Gan Lai, he would always want to take care of her and think that she would reciprocate his concern. If Gan Lai stared at him, he would blush and his heart would beat.
It was a strange feeling, wanting to avoid her eyes, but also obsessed with her gaze.
Chu Qing said that it was the feeling of meeting his sweetheart, and asked him to express his heart quickly, marry her back home, and turn the girl into a bride.
But this girl is stupid!Everyone said she was smart, why couldn't he see it?It's been three and a half years, why don't you get the hang of it?
Didn't you see "I care about you"?
Look, are you being silly again now?What are you doing this trip?Dart!Can you leave the goods alone and fight with others?Can?
Chu Yuan stretched out his hand to wrap Gan Lai's waving fist, "Okay! Are you here to fight or to do business?
Besides, do you know how many people there are in the "Poor Family Walk"?If you take out a steamed stuffed bun on the street, hundreds of beggars will surround you! "
Gan Lai was not convinced: "Fighting is doing business!"
This sentence inspired Xiaobao.
That's right, fighting is doing business.
Along the way, he has made friends with Shui Maomao, even if he has made friends with the boat gang, it means he has gained a little "Southern influence" in the rivers and lakes.
I have hooked up with the Salt Gang and are ready to deal with them.
Now we have encountered the "Qianjiahang", which is the "beggar gang" in the north. If the "poor family" can be used, wouldn't it be that they have established their own "northern forces" in the "jianghu"?
Walking on the rivers and lakes requires a wealth of experience, accumulation of connections, building influence, and more importantly, fame.
Didn't you hear what Zhou Xiaochuan said, some people in the Jianghu gain their fame by competing with famous people, this is the fastest way.
Isn't that what officialdom does, stepping on people to get ahead.
If we fight against the large number of "poor families", can we also stand in the rivers and lakes?
However, now is not the time.
As long as the goods are not delivered, the danger of Sanshun Escort Bureau will not be considered relieved.
Since the Kong family failed all the way on the water, if they didn't take action on the last land journey, they would have no chance at all.
Therefore, the current focus should be on land safety precautions.
The next morning, as soon as the gate of the carriage passage was opened at the ferry, Chu Lu and Chu Qi drove the carriage in with the guys.
All four-wheeled carts are really extravagant.Although the "Bao Qingxiang" logo has been taken off, it is estimated that few four-wheeled carts can afford it.
Still too eye-catching.
Zhou Xiaochuan led the bodyguards to pry off the large wooden boards embedded with porcelain and move them to the carriage.
However, Bai Jiaxing led Bao Qingxiang's guys to embed four pillars in the four corners of the car board, soak the "big quilt" they brought in water, and hang it on the four pillars of the car board.
Little Treasure didn't know why, so he asked Bai Jiaxing: "What are you doing, all the good quilts are ruined!"
Bai Jiaxing patted the "big quilt" and said to Xiaobao: "Touch, this is the 'cotton armor' that your mother ordered to make, it is fireproof, anti-theft and anti-cold arrow!"
Xiaobao touched it carefully, and found that it was different from ordinary soft quilts. This quilt was actually hard and not thick, but there seemed to be something hard caught inside. The quilt was not quilted with threads, but rivets.
Bai Jiaxing said with admiration: "Your mother has thoroughly studied cotton. You said we all know that cotton can be worn as clothes and as a quilt. Who would have thought of using this thing as a shield?"
The last time I was intercepted by bandits, I was really caught off guard.
In terms of combat effectiveness, Chu Qing's team's configuration is really not weak, and the cooperation between the personnel is also perfect.
And the point of "loyalty" is beyond doubt, because this "loyalty" is established by the family relationship that has been together for several years.
However, no one would have thought that there would be a cold shot.
You know, Daxuan still has strict controls on weapons. Ordinary people can't get bows and arrows. Even hunters can only cut bamboo and wood to make them. There are no iron arrows at all.
The Daxuan law stipulates: "All those who privately prohibit weapons will be imprisoned for one and a half years, and those who are not bows, arrows, knives, shields and short spears will be privately owned."
There are even regulations on real and fake weapons: "All sacrificial ceremonies must be replaced by civil and colored paper, and those who use real weapons are forbidden. The small people in the capital city, who make slingshots and hold them, have 77 sticks, half of their family wealth, and are not in other counties. Prohibited and limited. All those who hunted down and captured robbers patrolling horse archers and patrolling salt archers were allowed to hold bows and arrows, but the rest were banned."
That is to say, except for archers who serve as underhands for the government, other toy weapons such as slingshots and bird hunting are prohibited.
It was illegal for Xiaobao's guards to be able to wear knives, but the emperor acquiesced.
The armguards and combination spear that Chu Qing made were all learned from the Liangshan hero in "Water Margin".
Their simple knife can usually be disguised as a short knife or a stick, which is legal, and then assembled into a long pole knife in places where there are few people.
Chu Qing's armguards and the combined eight-sided spear used this "concealment method".
Shields are also controlled weapons, and Chu Qing has a certain right to purchase iron ore. If iron is used to make weapons blatantly, wouldn't it be "a birthday boy sleeping in a coffin"?
But last time, a large number of guards were injured at once by the cold arrow, and half of their combat power was lost in an instant. This kind of loss cannot be suffered a second time.
So Chu Qing copied the "cotton armor" from the Ming and Qing Dynasties and made them for the guards.
The practice is a bit cumbersome, but there is no technical content.
Using seven or eight catties of cotton as raw material, it was repeatedly beaten and kicked firmly with feet to form a thin layer.
Then add iron sheets of different thicknesses in the middle and fix them with rivets to complete the cotton armor.
The protective effect of cotton armor is not much worse than that of iron armor. According to the description of some Ming Dynasty documents, it is said that even bird guns cannot cause much damage to it.
In addition to good protection, the cotton armor also plays a role in warmth.
In the same way, you can also make some large quilts to protect your own goods.
Right now, the big quilt hung by Baijiaxing is even covered with canvas. Although it is not as good as cowhide, its protective power is not small.
Not to mention the carriage, the horses are all covered with cotton armor.
Bai Jiaxing felt that Chu Qing had thoroughly studied cotton, but Chu Qing often regretted that he did not study too much.
