: Scene 141: Earl White's Full Plate Armor
Seeing that Marquis Cad'an and Hilnie were blank, Bai Gang was already accustomed to this, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, you don't care why you can do it, just know that we can do it. Good. Of course, it's not impossible to sell this kind of thing if you want it."
Marquis Cad'an was taken aback for a moment, this kind of thing should be regarded as the most important weapon of the country, right? How can you say sell it? Not to mention other aspects, but if each fortress can be contacted at any time, wouldn't it be possible to dispatch troops to evacuate the citizens as soon as they encounter the attack of the undead?
This alone is enough to save countless lives!
White steel doesn't really matter. The price of high-tech products like this is definitely darker than that of armors, swords and other weapons, and if all people in Duze get into the habit of using mobile phones and radios, it means that the entire sacred The Ze Empire will be one-way transparent to the Storm Base - outsiders have absolutely no concept of monitoring technology. And a properly strengthened human empire is also something that Stormwind Base would like to see.
Three days later, Bai Gang's arms arrived, and so did the reply letter from Emperor Duze.
"Count White, good news, His Majesty the Emperor has agreed to your request. Moreover, he generously stated that as long as he can repel the offensive of the undead, he can fully compensate the Earl for your military expenditure."
Bai Gang laughed dumbly, as if he had heard a big joke. It is estimated that the Duze Emperor is probably trying to show his favor. The Duze royal family must have accumulated a lot of wealth over the past hundred years. It is better to spend more money and wait for death to make friends with a few more powerful factions.
The idea is correct, but the problem is that Emperor Duze obviously has no concept of the horrific military expenditure of modern warfare!
Not to mention, the few self-propelled artillery guns that were lost when they attacked the capital of Groshir were not prices that could be afforded by the medieval kings who lived on land, minerals and a little commercial taxation.
"Thank you for the kindness of His Majesty the Emperor, but it's not necessary. It's enough to help provide some food. It's better to sell us a batch of magic crystals at a low price. That's enough."
The Marquis of Cad'an really had no idea of saving money for their emperor. He was going to persuade him to show it again, but Bai Gang brought the topic to weapons and armor, so the Marquis didn't care about military reimbursement. something happened.
Although the unloading is very simple, there is no problem even without the help of the aborigines, but out of sales consideration, Bai Gang deliberately asked Marquis Cad'an to call the soldiers of the marquis to help.
As the wounded, Marquis Cad'an's soldiers will definitely not do heavy work. They have only one task - unpack the box, check whether the number of items is correct, and whether there is any damage or defect.
"Be careful! Be careful!"
The wooden box slammed on the ground with a bang, and the tired young men gasped for breath—a box of steel plates was not a light cargo.
Bai Gang smiled and handed the crowbar to Marquis Cad'an, "Sir Marquis, how about you open the first box?"
Marquis Kadean nodded, and he also wanted to be the first to know what the armor and weapons delivered by Baigang looked like.
The crowbar was inserted into the seam of the board and the box was opened with force, and it contained a set of armor. The two soldiers took out the armor parts one by one and placed them on the ground. When all the armors were taken out, all the aborigines widened their eyes in surprise.
That's a full body plate armor!
And unlike common iron armor, this is definitely a full-body plate armor made of high-quality stainless steel!
Although the production process of these plate armors is not very delicate due to time, they are basically simple goods that can be done by stamping a whole steel plate and then cleaning the burrs, but in terms of protection ability, these armors are not cutting corners at all! Due to the use of modern materials, these armors are not only lighter but also more protective than their medieval counterparts.
Marquis Cad'an looked at Bai Gang suspiciously and asked, "Count Bai, did you make a mistake? I didn't order armor for the knight this time."
Bai Gang said: "Ah!? I think your soldiers are quite powerful, Lord Marquis. Even if they are not knights, they should be able to wear this armor."
"It's not the question, it's...but..."
Marquis Cad'an was embarrassed to say, but Bai Gang laughed: "Lord Marquis, we are friends, and I admire your loyalty, so I only need five gold coins for such a set of armor."
"Five gold coins!?"
Marquis Cad'an screamed in surprise, and the aboriginal soldiers standing around were also shocked.
Not because it's too expensive, but because it's too cheap!
Although in the Seven Kingdoms of the South, one gold coin can be used to arm a heavy infantry, but in the turbulent Holy City Empire, the price will rise to two gold coins.
But how could the equipment on the so-called heavy infantry be on a par with the plate armor in front of me! ? The equipment of a typical southern kingdom heavy infantry includes a breastplate~www.wuxiaspot.com~ iron helmet, chain shoulder pads, leather gloves and a short hem chain skirt.
Wealthy soldiers may bring their own armor, while poorer soldiers pay rent to the lord to rent the armor. Weapons are relatively cheap, usually prepared by the soldiers themselves, so they are often not unified, which is also the inevitable result of the lord system, only those really wealthy lords can provide uniform equipment for their troops, but this is usually Laughing at it is flashy. After all, no matter how strong the army is, it is difficult to compete with multiple powerful professionals. Therefore, few lords invest money in unified equipment. They would rather spend money to cultivate their own descendants to practice fighting qi or magic.
The steel full-body plate armor in front of you is fundamentally different from the so-called heavy infantry armor - everything from the helmet to the gloves is made of steel plates, and the defense is absolutely amazing! Generally speaking, it is impossible to get this kind of equipment without more than ten gold coins! And it must be ordered in advance! Now you only need five gold coins! ? Still in bulk! ?
Seeing the expressions of Marquis Cad'an and the others, Bai Gang couldn't help but smile. If these things were considered precious in the Middle Ages, they were really nothing in the era of industrial production.
Armor is very expensive in modern society because the demand is low. People make it a little by hand as handicrafts, but if you go directly to the factory to open molds and do not pursue mass production of craftsmanship, the price will immediately drop to the price of cabbage!
However, even if such a set of plate armor is exchanged for five gold coins, there is really not much money to be made-not to mention the cost price, how to calculate the shipping fee for the shuttle plane? This deal is a big loss!
Therefore, gold coins are only a measure, and the base will refuse to accept them when the final transaction is settled! They only want magic crystals!
In addition, the price of magic crystals in the Holy City is not expensive. ...
