Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 298 Is it possible that you are the armor, all of which are made of steel
Hearing Xu Shu's words, Zhang Hong originally wanted to sneer to show his disdain.

But I have to admit that Xu Shu's words did arouse his curiosity.

Anyway, it didn't cost any money to take a look, so Zhang Hong immediately brought Jiang Qin and Dong Xi who had inspected the armor, followed Xu Shu, to the place where Xuzhou's new armor was stored.

The reason why I didn't take out this new armor at first.

It wasn't that Xu Shu and Yuan Tan wanted to make a grand finale, it was purely because the efficiency of the Jiangzuo Academy couldn't keep up.

The two water hammer transfer cars are running at full power, and can produce 150 sets of Xuzhou armor a day.

But in the past half a month, more of the craftsmen of the Jiangzuo Academy were transferred to repair the damaged armor collected from the battlefield and the hands of the surrendered soldiers.

Therefore, the output of armor in Xuzhou was cut down by nearly half at once.

In less than half a month, [-] sets were produced, plus the earliest samples produced.

This is enough to make up two thousand today.

Zhang Hong followed Xu Shu and walked into the heavily guarded treasury, becoming even more disdainful of Xuzhou's so-called new armor.

From Zhang Hong's point of view, armor is important, but no matter how good the armor is, how many pieces of armor can survive the battle on the battlefield?

Hiding so mysteriously can only show that Xuzhou is petty!

Not only did Zhang Hong hold this idea, but even Jiang Qin and Dong Xi who followed Zhang Hong didn't care about it.

Seeing the reaction of the three, Xu Shu smiled inwardly, but didn't say much.

The quality of Xuzhou's armor is there. When they really see the quality of Xuzhou's armor, they will naturally know who is the ridiculous party.

"Zhang Canjun, this is the place."

Xu Shu stopped and raised his hand to call the guards guarding the treasury. After showing Yuan Tan's warrant, he was able to open the gate of the treasury.

Zhang Hong and the others subconsciously slowed their breathing, and when they looked up, they were immediately shocked by the scene in the treasury.

It was different from the [-] sets of conventional armor they had examined before.

The treasury, which specially stores Xuzhou's armor, did not randomly stack the armor in large boxes.

Instead, they set up a personal character mold with great care, and put a set of Xuzhou armor on them.

From a distance, it seems that there are not two thousand sets of armor stored in this armor warehouse.

It is a full two thousand elite soldiers who are fully armed and ready to fight on the battlefield at any time!
The impact brought by such a scene naturally does not need to be explained in words.

Whether it was Zhang Hong, Jiang Qin, or Dong Xi, after seeing the scene in the Ming government treasury, they all lost their minds for a short moment!
"Ding, your treasury layout shocked Zhang Hong, shock point +50!"

"Ding, your treasury layout shocked Jiang Qin, shock point +50!"

"Ding, your treasury layout shocked Dong Xi, shock point +50!"

Yuan Tan was writing and drawing in his mansion, planning how to carry out Xuzhou's next business strategy after getting Jiangdong's grain and rice.

Hearing this system prompt suddenly, he couldn't help laughing out loud.

150 shock points, for the current Yuan Tan, it can only be a mosquito leg.

But what he valued was not these shocking points, but how much impact the arrangement in his treasury had on Zhang Hong and others.

As the saying goes, people rely on clothing and Buddha depends on gold clothing. As a later generation, Yuan Tan, how could he not know the importance of product packaging?
How many unscrupulous merchants selling health care products are carrying unknown medicinal powders that are obviously made by small workshops in unknown corners of the country.

As long as you paste a lot of incomprehensible bird texts, you can double your value and attract countless grandpas and aunts to rush to buy.

This metaphor may not be appropriate, but it is enough to illustrate the importance of product packaging.

Yuan Tan has the basic business philosophy of later generations, and he didn't use it before, but he didn't have the opportunity.

Now that he finally has the opportunity to make a big splash, why don't he make a good experiment on this little white mouse in Jiangdong?
So far, it looks like it's working well.

In the treasury, whether it was Zhang Hong or Dong Xi Jiang Qin, they all lost their minds for a moment before returning to their senses.

Seeing the reaction of the three, Xu Shu couldn't help but smile secretly, but his face was still indifferent.

Zhang Hong and the others blushed slightly, but luckily the three of them did not wait any longer, they quickly calmed down, entered the treasury, and began to inspect those new armors.

"Unremarkable."

Looking closely at the new armors called "Xuzhou Armor" by Xuzhou people, Zhang Hong's first impression was these three words.

Regarding this feature, Jiang Qin and Dong Xi nodded secretly.

Although in this era, there is a Mingguang armor that is famous for its "Mingguang" and "Luxury", and even sold for a high price of [-] yuan.

But that kind of armor is known to everyone, and it can only be worn as ceremonial armor in large-scale sacrifices.

If he really went to the battlefield and went to the battle wearing such armor, it would be that the old birthday star thought he had a long life and was impatient to live.

The armor that is truly suitable for use on the battlefield must be dark and inconspicuous like this.

Jiang Qin looked at Dong Xi, who nodded knowingly, and immediately took a set of armor from a mold.

With Jiang Qin's help, he dressed carefully.

Only half worn, Dong Xi felt that this set of armor was not light, at least, it was about ten catties heavier than ordinary standard armor.

Dong Xi is not a cautious character, and the warriors on the battlefield are often careless characters.

Dang even turned his head to look at Xu Shu and said:
"Mr. Xu, may I ask the Xuzhou armor in your place, how much does it weigh, and how much is it made of?"

Xu Shu smiled slightly upon hearing this.

Of course, he couldn't tell you the actual number of materials used, but the weight could be explained clearly. Anyway, you can know it when you put it on:

"The weight ranges from 42 to 45 jins, and the materials used range from [-] to [-] jins of iron."

Three hundred catties to four hundred catties?
If Xu Shu said one hundred catties to two hundred catties of iron, Dong Xi and Jiang Qin might not think it was a big deal.

But when Xu Shu said three hundred catties and four hundred catties, not to mention Dong Xi Jiang Qin, even Zhang Hong couldn't help laughing:

"Mr. Xu, although you are now talking about business, but you are talking too much. Do you know how many man-hours it will take to make three hundred catties and four hundred catties of iron into 42 catties of armor? No, the Xuzhou armor at your place is not made of hundred-refined steel, but thousands-refined steel, ten-thousand-refined steel?"

Iron materials used to make military equipment and armor often have to go through repeated tempering to smash out the impurities before they can get steel in the traditional sense.

Therefore, in ancient times, the number of "smelting" has always been used to divide the grades of steel.

Among them, Baisteel is the most top-notch one.

One hundred is just an imaginary number, not real. It can be eighty or ninety times of tempering, or it can be called a hundred steelmaking.

110 times and 120 times of tempering can also be called [-] times of steelmaking.

But no matter whether it is more or less, there is one thing that the world agrees on, that is, steelmaking takes a long time and costs a lot.

For example, the most expensive and well-known Mingguang Armor is a steel armor that has been tempered hundreds of times, with some luxurious decorations added!
