Three Kingdoms, at the beginning of the game, recognize the thief as the father, hit the spectacle,

How about a squeak?

……

Today's chapter... 50 words, it should be considered a relatively large chapter.A good friend hit me with 2000 blades before, which was not enough to add 1500. I thought about it, combined with some scattered rewards, adding [-] is no problem.

Hope you like it. (

Chapter 43 Tenfold

"Brother Wentai, why not leave it like this"

"As for you, there are a total of 12 standing army. Even if I have about 11 people with complete equipment, the current gap is [-]."

"Honestly, it's not a small amount."

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Yan said to Sun Jian.

"As far as the three-piece full-body armor you saw today, I still have more than 1 sets in stock, and I can give them to you directly. As for the remaining [-] sets, it will take a while to produce them." OK."

"In the case of fully producing armors, I in Lujiang can produce at most about [-] sets of armors every month, so starting from today, I will send a batch of [-] sets of armors from Lujiang to Changsha every two months. "

"The current time is the end of August in the sixth year of Zhongping, and until around April at the junction of spring and summer next year, I can provide you with all 11 sets of armor."

"As for the weapons...these things are all matched. Although your soldiers already have weapons, I hope you can understand, brother Wentai."

……

After telling Sun Jian the general plan, Zhang Yan looked up at him nervously.

In this era, the general buying and selling relationship is mostly one-handed payment and one-handed delivery, and the concept of "reservation" rarely appears, so Zhang Yan is not sure whether the other party can accept his approach.

I have to say that 11 sets of armor are too many, too many, far beyond Zhang Yan's imagination.

Even with Lujiang's productivity far exceeding that of ordinary people, it would not take ten days and half a month to get all these things together.

It takes ample time to accumulate. ...

Fortunately, Sun Jian himself knew what he said just now.

The equipment for 10,000+ people, not to mention it is in stock, even if it is pre-ordered, in today's China, there are probably not many princes who have the strength to accept such an order.

Therefore, after thinking about his future arrangements and plans for a while, Sun Jian nodded towards Zhang Yan.

"Well, yes."

"Demao, I also know that this item is not a small amount. As long as you can deliver the goods according to the agreed time, there is no problem with a slight delay."

"There are also those weapons. If you have already produced them as a set, just sell them to me. It's just that the [-] armors in the back don't need matching weapons."

"In this way, your production efficiency can be higher."

First, he decided on the transaction time. Sun Jian obviously had no ill feeling toward Zhang Yan, so he also gritted his teeth and ate the bundled sales of more than [-] weapons, swords and shields that the other party said.

But then, he mentioned a very crucial question:

"De Mao, since there are so many, can these armors be cheaper for me?"

……

It's cheaper... Zhang Yan's lips moved slightly, subconsciously wanting to bargain with the other party.

It's just that when he thought that it was already the second half of 189 A.D., he felt a little pity for the other party for no reason.

"It's... cheaper if it's cheaper."

"Brother Wentai, to be honest, you need so many armors at one time, I can indeed give you a cheap price... It's just that this thing always has production costs and transportation costs, which account for the majority. If you are not careful, I'm afraid I'm going to lose money."

"According to the market price of our big men, the price of a set of three-piece armor is about [-] yuan. If it is more than [-] sets of equipment with weapons and shields, the price is even more expensive."

"Now I will discount these equipments to you, and it will be counted as a set of [-] yuan. If you have the ability to come to Lujiang to pick it up by yourself, I will deduct another [-] yuan and count it as [-] yuan for you. How about it?"

After making a rough estimate in his heart, Zhang Yan reported a number to Sun Jian.

Even due to his personal emotional influence on the other party, he didn't give himself enough room to bargain.

In the whole of Lujiang, the cost of producing a set of Zhajia, including the labor costs of mining, smelting, casting, etc., is about three hundred to four hundred yuan...

If Zhang Yan's selling price is less than [-] yuan, once the peak time of employment is reached, it is easy to make a profit at a loss.

Fortunately, Sun Jian is also real.

After recalling the price he had found from the local merchant, he found that the price Zhang Yan offered was indeed [-] to [-]% lower than the other party's, so he readily agreed.

……

"Well, according to what you said, De Mao, a set of Zhajia is 11 yuan, and 500 sets are worth [-] million yuan. Based on the current gold price of our big man, it is about [-] gold."

"You can take the money that belongs to me directly from the profit of the gold mine when the time comes."

……

Nodding towards Zhang Yan, Sun Jian didn't say anything more.

The price of this batch of armor had long been within his expectations, so even if thousands of catties of gold were involved, he still didn't feel anything special.

In contrast, Sun Jian was more interested in Lujiang's full-body plate armor and the so-called secret weapon that Zhang Yan was talking about.

……

"Okay, then it's settled like this."

"When my military exercise in Lujiang is over, I will send someone to deliver all these things to you."

"As for those weapons...the price is not too high compared to the armor, so I will give it to you directly."

Zhang Yan also responded to Sun Jian.

Since Sun Jian was so forthright, there was no need for him to be penny-pinching.

The total value of these more than 1 weapons and shields is only two to three hundred gold, compared to the previous transaction of up to six thousand gold... This amount of money is no longer important to Zhang Yan.

He simply sent it out in one go.

……

In fact, for Zhang Yan, he wished that Sun Jian would send someone to Lujiang to pick up the goods.

If he directly arranges for those caravans to deal with transactions that cost hundreds of catties of gold, the caravans will definitely not be able to afford the risk.But if you want to send troops to escort...

The soldiers in Lujiang don't have to do anything else. They escort these caravans every month, and I'm afraid they will waste most of their time.

Looking back, if this matter fell on Sun Jian's head, it would be much simpler.

Changsha is no different than the Lujiang River. The water network in the territory is criss-crossed and extremely dense.

Compared with traditional land transportation, water transportation is the most important mode of transportation in Changsha.

Starting from the Xiangjiang River where Changsha County is located, go all the way north, and after hundreds of miles, you can enter the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, and then go down the Yangtze River. In less than two days, you will reach the lower reaches of the Yangtze River in the south of the Lujiang River.

There, you only need to go north tens of miles, and you can reach the border of Lujiang in less than half a day.

Transportation in this way is obviously more reliable than letting Zhang Yan go by land.

……

"Very good, very good."

There was a hint of satisfaction in his eyes. At this moment, Sun Jian could already imagine that he would lead 12 armors in the Jingnan area, conquering the south and the north, and looking down upon him.

In other words, in fact, at this level, he can already stop.

The current Jingzhou... No, let alone Jingzhou, there are very few forces with more than [-] armored soldiers in the entire Huaxia region.

It's just that due to the influence of Sun Jian's military life all year round, he is still very curious about the secret weapon that Zhang Yan talked about.

Coupled with his desire for that kind of fully armored infantry, he almost didn't even hesitate, so he continued to question Zhang Yan.

……

"The equipment of the 12 standing army is enough. As for the extra weapons, it can be reserved for the [-] reserve corps for training."

"But Demao... what about the others?"

"Like the heavy armored infantry that appeared in your army today, how do you sell the plate armor called Guangyaojia that they wear?"

……

"Hmm... just need armor."

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Yan seemed to be calculating something in his heart.

After a while, he replied to Sun Jian:

"That kind of armor can be sold to you, but the production of this kind of thing is too complicated. Before I find some good ways to improve it, the output cannot be as abundant as ordinary armor."

"Brother Wentai, you have also seen that in the past six months, I have been rushing and going all out, and only produced [-] sets, barely supplying the military uniforms and equipment for two large battalions... This efficiency is already low. It's pointing fingers."

"I can sell you a full set of exactly the same set of armor, including a halberd, a sword and a helmet. I can sell you up to [-] sets first, so that you can equip them with priority for the warriors in the army."

"As for the rest... for the next year, my main job in Lujiang will be the production of Zhajia. After half a year at most, I will allocate another [-] sets of production capacity for you, a total of [-] sets. This is the limit."

"A total of 12 troops, Brother Wentai, you can select one out of a hundred warriors and bestow them with precious armor, which is quite reasonable."

……

"One thousand sets, so little?"

Hearing Zhang Yan's words, Sun Jian was taken aback for a moment, then frowned.

He still thinks that no matter how little that kind of armor is, it can always reach a ratio of ten to one with ordinary Zhajia.

But what Zhang Yan said directly raised the ratio to one hundred to one.

……

"Demao, but I see that in your military parade today, there will be a phalanx with equipped infantry every five phalanxes. Isn't this a fairly high ratio?"

……

Asked Zhang Yan curiously, Sun Jian looked a little disappointed.

"Brother Wentai, you don't know... During the military parade today, I in Lujiang conducted the military parade separately according to the soldiers and horses, that is, different regiments. Only the Lujiang First Army and Horses had the establishment of 2000 people for that kind of infantry. .”

"And this...is already the most solid team in Lujiang."

Shaking his head at Sun Jian with a wry smile, Zhang Yan explained.
