Chapter 145 The Hot Token
It's no wonder that Xu Kaijin is suspicious. Anyone who sees Jiang Lin's age will subconsciously deny it.
Jiang Lin understood this and was not angry. He just said: "It was indeed built by me."
"Sure enough, heroes come from young. I heard that Master Jiang has a good relationship with Nanling Camp?" Xu Kaijin asked again.
“It’s just a few brothers who can respect it.”
"You can't say that. Lao Liao and the others have very high standards. Not everyone can be valued by them." Xu Kaijin chuckled and said: "I also fought alongside them in the frontier army back then, and I know very well that A few people’s nature.”
"It turns out that General Xu was also from the frontier army..."
After chatting for a few words, Jiang Lin and Xu Kaijin quickly became familiar with each other thanks to the relationship between Liao Mingxu and others.
Then Xu Kaijin tried the power of the big gun again and was full of praise.
"As soon as the remnants of Xuanhua Dao are wiped out, we will go to the border, regain the lost territory, and wipe out a few small countries that don't open their eyes. This big gun can be used just right." Xu Kaijin said happily.
He was born with supernatural power. Even the big gun made by Yu Maoming was heavy but not easy to use.
If you charge a few more times, it will transform.
The big gun built by Jiang Lin has the right weight, high enough quality, and frightening penetrating power. It is a weapon for charging into battle!
Hearing this, Jiang Lin's heart moved and he said: "General Xu is going to the frontier to fight? I happen to have a pair of armor here. You can see if it fits."
The armor was made according to Jiang Lin's own body shape, and the two were almost the same size.
Xu Kaijin came over and took a look, and couldn't help but said in surprise: "First-grade armor?"
There are many first-grade weapons, but there are very few upper-grade armors, and only the generals and commanders can wear them.
Most of the third-grade generals like them only have mid-grade armor, and it would be a big deal to have a third-grade general.
Jiang Lin introduced: "This armor is fused with the monster's carapace. It is hard in texture and has a certain dodge ability. When charging into the formation, it may be able to offset some attacks."
"Evasion ability?"
"General, you'll know with one shot of this armor," Jiang Lin said.
Xu Kaijin didn't hesitate because of the first-grade armor. Jiang Lin asked him to try it, so he picked up the big gun and stabbed it.
Because he didn't use all his strength, the spear tip slid away faster on the armor's surface, and even the mark wasn't deep enough.
But Xu Kaijin had already sensed the intention to dodge. His eyes were bright and he stepped forward to touch the two marks.
"It's so strange. I want this armor! How much silver?" Xu Kaijin asked.
"A gun and armor, one thousand five hundred taels will be enough." Jiang Lin said.
"No." Xu Kaijin shook his head directly and said, "Even if it's just this armor, it's worth a thousand, two and three, let alone this big gun."
"They are all acquaintances..."
"That's why we can't let acquaintances suffer. If we really don't know each other, I won't say anything more even if it's only five hundred taels." Xu Kaijin said: "One thousand nine hundred taels, no need to say anything else, otherwise I would rather not have it."
Jiang Lin knew that they all had the same temper, so he stopped talking and nodded in agreement.
Xu Kaijin happily took out the cash, but when he took out the armor, he was stopped by Jiang Lin.
"What?"
"This armor is damaged, and it is a little smaller for General Xu. I will temper it again and make up for the flaws before sending it to you." Jiang Lin said.
Xu Kaijin smiled and said: "Okay, when you come, I will treat you to a drink."
With that said, Xu Kaijin handed over a token.
With the token, he can come and go freely without communication, which is regarded as his preferential treatment to Jiang Lin.
Ordinary blacksmiths, not even Yu Maoming, would receive such treatment.
For some people, trust is the greatest gift. Jiang Lin took the token, sent Xu Kaijin out, and watched him mount his horse and leave with a big gun until he disappeared.
Old Man Wei's voice came from beside him: "Don't go and deliver it in person."
Jiang Lin turned to look at him and asked in confusion: "Why?"
Old Man Wei glanced at the token and said: "This person is the most unreasonable. He gave you the token because he was afraid that he would have to wait for you to leave and stay in the army."
Jiang Lin was stunned. The conversation with Xu Kaijin was very harmonious, and there was no sign of being unreasonable at all.
Old Man Wei hummed softly and said: "How do you understand that the border troops often resort to any means to win? If I hadn't been here, do you think Liao Mingxu would have let you go?"
Jiang Lin was dumbfounded. Liao Mingxu had expressed his respect for Jiang Lin more than once and wanted him to join the army.
He was only stopped by Old Man Wei. Now think about it, if Old Man Wei hadn't stopped him, and with the border army's unruly style of doing things, they might have been able to rob people.
The most important thing is that even if they rob it, the Foundry Department will not dare to do anything.
Xu Kaijin and Old Man Wei were not in the same battalion, but they were both affiliated with the border army.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
In front of Old Man Wei, he might be wary of Liao Mingxu and others and restrain himself a little.
But once we get to his camp, it's hard to say.
Jiang Lin couldn't help but think of a certain TV series he had watched in his previous life. There was a very classic line in it.
"You have to agree even if you agree, and you have to agree even if you don't agree. If you are desperate, I will have someone tie you up! Who asked you to come to my territory!"
It’s unreasonable, it’s unreasonable!
Jiang Lin smiled bitterly, and suddenly felt like the token in his hand was like a hot potato.
I should have known better.
"It doesn't matter, just ask Liao Mingxu to deliver it to you later." Old Man Wei said.
Jiang Lin hummed. To be on the safe side, it would be most appropriate for Liao Mingxu to go there in person.
It's not good to just ask someone to help you for free.
After returning to the blacksmith shop, Jiang Lin re-forged the armor as he said before.
Eliminate damage, expand some dimensions, and add small parts such as arm armor and leg armor.
Then he used the same material to create a large piece of breast shield.
Liao Mingxu would certainly not be willing to give the whole armor as a gift. If he wanted to be careful, he could only reduce the area.
The little breast shield will never go away.
Afterwards, Jiang Lincai took his things to Nanling Camp and found Liao Mingxu to explain his purpose.
Liao Mingxu understood as soon as he heard it and nodded: "Master Wei is right. With Xu Kaijin's character, he can really do it. He gave you this token specially, and I'm afraid that's what he meant."
"So I have to ask Brother Liao to help me make a run." Jiang Lin said, putting the breast shield aside and said, "This thing is made of the same material as the armor. I always have to take care of it. Please give me a million dollars." Don’t refuse.”
Liao Mingxu didn't understand the characteristics of armor, so he didn't attach much importance to the breast shield, thinking it was just ordinary armor.
"Okay, I'll accept it then. Don't be so polite again. It seems strange."
Jiang Lin hummed and asked again: "According to what General Xu said, most of the remnants of Xuanhua Road have been wiped out, and they will return to the border. When the time comes, the Nanling Camp will also go?"
"I'm going." Liao Mingxu said.
Every few years, some of the border troops would be mobilized to take turns guarding, which could also be said to give them time to recuperate.
