Chapter 204: Yantian / Armor / Confrontation

"Damn, although I planned it, I have never seen this scene before..." Although he didn't want to, Wen Du still swears because in front of him was a total of ten thousand salt-making troops. Looking at their hard work, he felt that a lot of money was waving to him.

"This is just a primary scale and will definitely expand in the future. If you are afraid now, won't you go into shock in the future?" Mi Zhu, who was standing next to him, provided some ideological education to Wen Du at the height of his life.

"Oh, the same thing, you have been doing business for many years and have naturally seen more big scenes than me, and your mentality is different.

Change the topic, can you really come up with this?”

"For coarse salt, just dry it. If you want to be meticulous, the steps required will be much more complicated. As for how to do it appropriately, I don't know much about it. Anyway, just follow the ideas of the masters."

"There are some orders of hearing and profession, so let's leave it to professionals. I'm going to Qiantang, are you here?"

"What are you going to do?"

"Look at if the things I asked for are ready?"

"You mean armor and weapons?"

"Yes, it's been so long, so there should be at least a thousand sets, right?"

He muttered in his heart, and took Mi Zhu to Qiantang forging yard overnight. Before he could enter the house, he heard the tingling sound of tingling. After entering the door, Wen Du called him back to the guy. The shirtless sweating, under the influence of everyone, turned darker at least for a while.

Looking around, he actually saw Yan Baihu, Zulang and Pan Lin among them.

"I said why can't I find you three? Are you all here?"

"That's right, if it weren't for your request, the three of us wouldn't have to come here to suffer..." Yan Baihu seemed angry and complaining, but looking at their three of us's red skin, we can be sure that we were not lazy.

"Don't you understand very well. Are all the forging masters here? You three don't need to have fun with the people..."

"Otherwise, you laymen don't know anything." Pan Lin gave Wen Du a blank look, turned around and left the job, took two long weapons from the weapon rack in the distance, and put them on the table.

Grinding to a reflective sharp edge, the forged long, straight and erect handle is covered with only black from beginning to end. The two parts are combined together, and just looking at it is enough to show its murderous aura.

Wen Du asked: "Is this a spear?"

Pan Lin replied: "Yes, what you asked for, why did you ask me back?"

"Oh, after all, I don't see each other very often..." Wen Du was a little embarrassed. After all, Zhou Tai was the only one who knew the weapon of the lance.

"What's going on?" Looking at the pole next to it, the tip of the spear was a little dim and the handle was a little curved, just like a sick seedling.

"The defective products are because they have made a few of these, so the three of us will come over, otherwise the iron ore and steel may be sacrificed by them..." Yan Baihu looked at the craftsmen working around him helplessly, and sighed and said, "But it can't be entirely blamed on them. After all, this thing is expensive, it costs and is laborious, and it is too difficult to forge. Also, the materials will be used up at most three days. Please replenish them quickly."

"This is no problem, but this can form a complete set of equipment, including armor, vests, weapons, and shields. How many pairs are there now? Is it enough for 800 people to use?"

"What are you kidding? Five hundred sets are already overwhelming." Pan Lin stretched out five hands and shook them, and Wen Du's chin was about to fall off when he saw them.

"It's been past few months, why are there only five hundred?"

"If you are an outsider, it's hard to make armor and this spear is even more difficult to make. These are the ones we drove out by working overtime. This is different from farming!"

"Well...is there any way to speed up?"

"Two methods, one is to reduce the requirements, replace the spear with a spear, and replace the black iron armor with ordinary iron armor."

Yan Baihu just said one, Wen Du immediately waved his hand to deny it, "This method is not possible. Only fools will get bad goods and equipment elites."

"Then there is only the second way, recruit people and expand factories. We only have one thousand people now, five hundred smelting and five hundred smelting. If you want to accelerate, you can recruit more people, but as long as I have been in this industry for more than three years, I don't want anything less than three years! Of course, you will pay all kinds of fees yourself."

"That's it..." Wen Du was worried when he talked about money. After all, his salary was not even considered a thigh.

"How much does a person have to pay each month?" Before Wen Du could speak, wealthy businessman Mi Zhu made a brilliant debut!

"Look at the qualifications, the older you get, the more expensive it is, the price is between five hundred and one thousand."

"Okay, I'll recruit five thousand people directly, and I will pay all the fees!"

"Okay, as long as the money is in place, everything will be easy." Yan Baihu naturally enjoyed seeing it happening.

"Zi Zhong!" Wen Du hugged Mi Zhu's neck and raised his thumb: "You are a man! You can do it!"

But Mi Zhu didn't take this sugar-coated shell and warned him: "Don't get me wrong, this is an investment, it's a borrowing, and you'll have to pay it back in the future."

"No problem. If you have more time to make money in the future, just sit and enjoy yourself!"

After giving Mi Zhu a guarantee, Wen Du signaled to Yan Baihu again: "These five hundred sets of clothes are sent to Moling first. I have something to do, so I'll leave first."

Wen Du explained, and when he was about to leave, Yan Baihu stopped his steps, pulled him to the corner of the wall, and asked in a low voice, "I heard you are making salt?"

“Yes”

"Can we share some profits for the three of us? Even if we pay for working hard for so long?"

"Huh?" Wen Du didn't understand Yan Baihu's request very much: "You three brothers are the magistrates of three counties. If you secretly deduct a little bit of taxes every month, it's enough to live a rich life, right?"

If officials are honest, Wen Du naturally likes it, but he knows very well how many honest officials can be there these days? So as long as bureaucrats at all levels work hard, don’t make trouble, and usually take some kickbacks, he turns a blind eye.

"That's right, but there are only so many people who can get into my own pocket every month, and they will be gone if they spend a little...

But the salt manufacturing industry is different. Even I, an outsider, can have some concerns about how big the profit is. It is so huge that I can't imagine, so I'll ask you to be kind." Yan Baihu said, shaking his red arm in front of Wen Du's eyes, demonstrating his "war achievements".

"Well, I have seen how hard you have worked. Let's do this. When I go back and think carefully, see how much it is appropriate to give you. Before the first batch of salt is sold, the result will be sent to you."

"As long, thank you! You can leave now." The purpose was achieved, Yan Baihu waved his hand and sent Wen Du away.

"You, you can always give me some new tricks, but I have a lot of them. I won't bother with you and leave."

It can be said that he came and went in a hurry. As soon as the matter was arranged here, Wen Du took Mi Zhu away again.

“Where are we going?”

"Moling, I received a letter and a horse merchant came here. This is an important big deal and cannot be delayed."

While the two were running around, Gan Ning and others who were fighting in Liaodong were not idle. They also had about 120,000 people who had just surrendered the Yellow Turban Army, and they continued to attack Changli City. Although the Yellow Turbans had the weakest combat power, they were still qualified to be cannon fodder. Gan Ning asked them to climb up the ladder to attract firepower, put their own people behind and stand by or siege cars, and the losses they suffered were much smaller.

Seeing that his own people were sold, where could he live? He hurriedly ran to Gan Ning and asked, "General, the Yellow Turban troops have weak combat effectiveness, so this will only be in vain. I hope the general can send the elite behind him to help!"

Looking at the battle situation, Gan Ning thought that the time was almost over, so he turned around and signaled the army behind him to start attacking.

Unexpectedly, when the army was halfway through, the enemy suddenly rushed out from the side, and the two generals Yang Yi and Liu Yi were led by!

Xu He was very scared of Cheng Yaojin who came out halfway, but Gan Ning, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin all looked eager to try.

"You have already killed a general before, I will be the one this time!" Jiang Qin kept Zhou Tai, who was about to move with a spear, and led his team to rush forward.

The obstructed Zhou Tai turned his head and looked at Gan Ning on the other side, leaving only the four words "You go to attack the city!", and then followed Jiang Qin's steps and ran away.

"Who dares to fight me?"

With Jiang Qin's shout, Yang Yi immediately turned his head and rushed towards him: "Don't be arrogant, Yang Yi is here!"

In a blink of an eye, the two of them passed by. The first round could only be considered a test, and the next one was the main show.

"Take me a blow!" Jiang Qin shouted and the big knife stabbed out. Seeing this, Yang Yi went back to defend without any flaws...

Suddenly, Gan Ning and Liu Yi who were fighting beside him, their roars were even more crazy than Jiang and Yang. One halberd and one gun collided violently, and the two horses neighed to a strong momentum. They saw a flash of light in their hands, and there was no difference.

"Good boy, come and sign up! The uncle will not kill the unknown people." Gan Ning came with a halberd and asked with great appreciation.

Liu Yi also made a sound and loudly informed his name.

"Okay, come again!" Gan Ning also fought more and more, and rode his horse and halberd out again. Liu Yi hurriedly dodged sideways, and then fought back with a gun. How could Gan Ning show weakness? He raised his halberd and collided with him. The battle was intense and dangerous.

After a moment, in the tenth round, Gan Ning first made a move to force Liu Yi to block the situation. Then he turned the handle like lightning and poked Liu Yi's chest with a halberd. Liu Yi screamed in pain. Gan Ning, who seized the opportunity, swept his halberd and smashed his left hand, directly knocking the spear several meters away.

[Not good!] Liu Yi's heart suddenly sank. He knew that the situation was going to go, so he hurriedly fled, but Gan Ning could not let him go, and shouted: "Where is Liu Yi's son running?" The horse flew out and ran to chase him!
