Chapter 119 Is the Reed Leaf Gun a secret?
At noon, Zhao Zhen cooked a banquet to welcome Liu and Tang. During the banquet, Zhao Zhen introduced the newcomers Pei Xuan, Tang Long, Deng Fei, and Zhu Gui. After seeing the ceremony, everyone moved them to sit down.
Ruan Xiaowu sighed: "We have only been out for half a month, and there are many good guys gathering together. The village owner doesn't know that now I, Shuibo Liangshan, have a great reputation outside the country, and there are people everywhere in the world who spread the reputation of the village owner. Now I'm going back. At Binzhou Salt Farm, Qiu Silang, You Dalang and others were much more polite to us."
Liu Tang said: "That's right. Although I didn't buy Qiu Silang's salt this time, I sent more seafood than last time. "
After hearing this, Zhao Zhen also smiled and said, "It's all thanks to the efforts of the brothers." He raised his glass and drank with everyone. At the banquet, Liu Tang said: "Master of the village, now the salt supervisor of You Dalang has indeed begun to collude with salt households to cook salt and sell it privately. Unfortunately, we only have two large ships going back and forth. If there were more, we would buy more." Some.”
Zhao Zhen heard this and said: "Haha, brothers Liu and Tang, don't be anxious. One of the brothers from Yinmachuan is not at the village. This man is called Meng Kang. He is known as Jade Flag pole in the rivers and lakes. He is good at building all kinds of large ships. Now we are supervising the construction of large ships in Shuizhai. The wood is all ready and the new ships will be available in March."
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this.
After two more rounds of wine, Zhao Zhen said: "Brother Liu Tang, are there any twists and turns in this business?"
Liu Tang said: "Master, everything is going well, as Brother Ruan Xiaowu said. He said, with the current reputation of the village owner, who in the world would not take a look at me? This time I bought it from You Dalang in Diaokou Township, 1,300 stones of salt, and also bought a lot of dried seafood in Diaokou Township. . The cost is 1,400 yuan, which is cheaper than the last time. Qiu Silang also has many gifts.”
Zhao Zhen heard this and said, “Don’t give up on Qiu Silang’s needs now. There are so many and the price is not much different.”
Liu Tang said: "Brothers, please make an agreement with Qiu Silang to buy a batch from him next time, so that neither party will be offended."
Zhao Zhen nodded, turned to focus on Jiao Ting and said: " Brother Jiao Ting, how was your trip? "
Jiao Ting said: "Master, I have seen a lot of the world during this trip. The wind and waves on the sea are indeed extraordinary. I have also gone through Nanchuang. Going north is also a bit watery. The wind and waves on the sea are much stronger than those on the river, and the journey was bumpy for a few days. However, we were lucky enough to eat the seafood delicacies Brother Ruan Xiaoqi said, which was indeed much more delicious than the dry food we brought back. , it’s not a waste of time.”
Everyone laughed after hearing this. After drinking until night, everyone dispersed.
Zhao Yuanli came forward and said: "Master, we have checked it and it is consistent with Liu Tang's account book. There are 1,300 stones of refined salt, one basket each of dried sea cucumbers and dried abalone, five baskets of sweet sun-dried fish, and Bohai pearls. Thirty pills. Total cost: 1,400."
Zhao Zhen said: "Needless to say anything else, I have never heard of this Bohai Pearl. Do you know?"
Zhao Yuanli said: "I asked Liu Tang, a hero, that this is a pearl produced by snails in the Bohai Sea. They are called Bohai snail beads. They are not from the sea, but they were collected from Diaokou Township. I knew that the owner was going to make jewelry, so I brought them over." As he said this, Zhao Yuanli took out this box from his sleeve. The pearl was delivered to Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Zhen took it and opened the box, only to see a piece of white silk at the bottom of the box, with thirty large and small pearls on it, pink, white, and light yellow, complementing each other.
Zhao Zhen nodded and said: "Send it to Li's Office. We have to go back tomorrow. I'm afraid it won't be late."
Zhao Yuanli nodded, Zhao Zhen said: "It's not until the end of the day tomorrow." , prepare the things on the list." After that, Zhao Yuanli went down, and Zhao Zhen also went back to his room to rest.
The next day, Zhao Zhen practiced martial arts with the heroes as usual. While taking a break, Zhao Zhen said to Liu Tang: "Brother Liu Tang, how about you take a few days' rest and take a few people to the Binzhou Salt Fields again?"
< br>Ruan Xiaoer listened on the side and said: "Master, there is a storm on the sea now, and the ship is also damaged. Should we send the ship to the water village for repair first?"
Zhao Zhen listened. He said: "What happened? You can buy salt at any time. The repair of the ship is a big deal. The Meng Kang brothers are repairing the ship. Today they are all sent to the water village for repair. They will be sent together with the current stern for a good inspection. It's time to repair and replace it."
"Brothers Liu and Tang were just taking a rest at the village and picked one for training, which will be useful in the future."
Ruan Xiao. 2. Liu and Tang all responded. After resting, everyone practiced for a while, and the weather got hotter. Then they went back to their rooms, changed their clothes, and went to enjoy the coolness under the willow tree.
Zhao Zhen also resigned from everyone and found Zhao Yuanli to personally go over the things he wanted to bring to the main world.
Twenty pairs of geese, ten carp with four beards, fifty taels of gold, one hundred taels of silver, three hundred copper coins, five carts of [Huajia Baijiu], and one hundred pieces of silk. These are all ready.
Zhao Zhen looked at them one by one and selected the best ones. The geese and fish were all bright-colored and plump, and the gold, silver and copper coins were all of good quality. Zhao Zhen only asked to take out the silk and satin. The four horses were replaced with moiré patterns produced by the Zhiluo Department.
After lunch, Zhao Zhen took out the reed gun given by Gao Hu and looked at it. World Log
[Reed Leaf Spear] (Third level, imitating Yang Yanzhao's spear, made of iron, the gun body is one foot and three feet long, and the spear head is as slender as a reed leaf. Made of fine steel quenched with silver, Can easily pierce hard armor )
Characteristics: Sharpness +4, Strongness +2
[Willow Leaf Mianzhu Armor] (Fifth level, woven from 100-year-old Mianzhu twigs, with a texture like willow leaves. Invulnerable to water, invulnerable to weapons and bullets.)
< br>Characteristics: Protection +7, Solidness +5; Fear of fire.
Zhao Zhen looked at these two weapons carefully. The reed leaf gun was also used by the Song people, and the willow leaf bamboo armor was used by the generals of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. This is also the main world after long world exploration, added information comes out. Zhao Zhen naturally read [Chronicles of Dynasties in the Mistful Century] at school.
Only when Zhao Zhen saw this reed leaf gun did he realize that he had been careless after all. Through Chao Gai and Ruan Xiaoqi, anyone who was interested could naturally guess that he was in the Song Dynasty. After all, these two people are recorded in "The Legacy of Xuanhe of the Song Dynasty" and "Praise of Thirty People in Songjiang". Zhao Zhen kept this matter in mind and looked for an opportunity to test it out.
It must be said that the Gaohu royal family is indeed worth a lot of money. He has been in business for a long time, captured on the battlefield, purchased in the market, and has more than a dozen advanced weapons and armors in his hands, the highest of which is only the third level [Seven Stars] Gilt Wild Goose Feather Knife] is also the only one. Although Gao Hu only had two items in his hands, one was at level three, and the other was as high as level five.
This is also the highest level weapon and armor I have ever seen. He just has a fatal weakness, his fear of fire.
After looking at the two weapons and armor given by Gao Hu, and then looking at the three weapons I bought, the difference is clear at a glance.
World Log
[Short Iron Ax] (Short axe, first level, made of iron. Low-level blacksmiths occasionally get iron, mixed with steel, and made crudely.)
Characteristics: Sharpness +1, Blunt Strike +1, solid +1.
[Baocarved Bow with Golden Bird Painting] (First level, eucalyptus wood is used as the bow body, covered with large horns, glued together, fixed with rib glue, painted with gold and painted, decorated with In the shape of a magpie.)

[Three strands of bright silver holding the sky fork] (First level, made of fine iron, mixed with a large amount of silver sand from the sky, the silver is dazzling.)

After all the other weapons were packed and placed on the weapon rack in the study, Zhao Zhen went to the front hall. At this time, Li Er was already waiting in the hall, handing over the jewelry he had made in the past few days. . Li Er walked up to Zhao Zhen, took out a piece of white cloth from the box, spread it on the table, then took out five pairs of pearl earrings one by one, and said: "Master, these are the pearls sent yesterday. I selected five pairs that are large and beautiful." These five pairs of pearl earrings are round and matchable, and can be made in just one night."
After hearing this, Zhao Zhen was overjoyed. Just as he was about to praise Li Er, he saw Li Er reaching out to take out eight pairs of bracelets from the box, four gold and four silver. Just listen to Li Erdao: "Because of the owner's urgency, the villain took a clever trick and made these eight pairs of bracelets, [Plum Blossom Gold Bracelet with the word "Happiness" and "Open Silver Bracelet with the word "Fu")."
Zhao Zhen didn't speak, looking at the box expectantly, wondering if Li Er had already prepared all the missing jewelry. Then Li Er closed the box and said, "Master, that's all I did. It's too late to get the hairpin."
Zhao Zhen said: "Brother Li Er, you have done a great job in such a short time. Your craftsmanship is really superb. Go down and rest for a few days before starting to make jewelry." Zhao Zhen rewarded Li Er with six golden melon seeds and asked Li Er to go down. .
There are eight hairpins and step shakes in total, and there are still two pieces missing. There are exactly ten pairs of bracelets, but there are three more pairs of earrings. Zhao Zhen thought about it, picked out a pair of gourd-shaped gold earrings, and put two pairs of gold earrings for boys riding deer. He also took out three hairpins and put five gold and silver sachets on them.
It is just right to replace a hairpin with a sachet. Pick out two of the three extra hairpins and three pairs of earrings and give them to Bai Zhi and Jin Cuilian.
The carpenter's workshop also brought six canopy beds, and Zhao Zhen returned to the main world with these things. As soon as he appeared in the hall, Zhao Zhen placed all the things he had brought with him one by one. Mother Li E heard the commotion and came back from the front. She saw many gold and silver jewelry, silk and silk in the hall.
He said to Zhao Zhen: "Erlang, are you ready?"
Zhao Zhen said: "Mother, there was a jewelry shop and a silk and satin shop in my fantasy world. The Baizi geese and the four-tailed carp are specialties, so I have prepared them all."
Li E looked at them one by one. After that, he nodded from time to time and said: "Erlang has made a career, not bad, not bad."
Zhao Zhen took out a hairpin and a pair of earrings, and said to Li E: "Mother, here is a piece of gold-plated copper with emerald green A beaded stone begonia and crane pattern head flower] and a [gourd-shaped gold earring] are given to my mother and second mother. You choose one first."
Li E took it and picked the head flower, leaving the rest. The earrings he wore were also handed over to Li E. After Zhao Zhen talked to his mother, he went to the shop to say goodbye to Zhao Jin. Li E took care of everything else.
Zhao Zhen spent 150 Wen and hired six oxcarts on the street to deliver all six canopy beds to the school. Then he rode back to Bailiu Village.
Tian Lei was pacing back and forth anxiously in the carpenter's workshop. It was already late today, and Baozheng Zhao Zhen had not returned yet. Today he had to transport the beds to the school. There were still four beds missing, and the business Lu Sanlang introduced was only two short. A canopy bed can be delivered.
Zhao Zhen came in. When Tian Lei saw it, he breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Has Baozheng brought enough beds for six?"
Zhao Zhen nodded and said to Tian Lei Said: "It has been sent to the school. They are all canopy beds. Now I will send 15 Arhat beds and 9 canopy beds. Just settle the account."
Tian Lei did the math, right? This leaves just two canopy beds, which can also be used to complete Lu Sanlang's order. He immediately ordered the convoy to set off and went to the county town with all the items for delivery.
