Chapter 259 Gift

Li Tianbao looked back and saw that it was Wulanda hiding at the door, seemingly waiting for him.

"Whatever makes me unhappy is your own business." After saying that, Li Tianbao asked: "Are you waiting for me?"

Wulanda said respectfully: "Sage, I don't know whether I should say something or not?"

Li Tianbao thought for a while and smiled: "But it doesn't matter."

Wulanda looked into the room and found that Wei Na was still dressing, so she whispered: "How long have the saint and his wife known each other?"

Li Tianbao heard something in Wulanda's words, and thinking of his previous behavior, he said: "It hasn't been long, it can be said that we just met him not long ago."

"Then do you know anything about her?" Ulanda continued to ask.

Li Tianbao became a little impatient and said quickly: "If you have something to say, just say it quickly. I'm not a patient person."

Wulanda thought for a while and whispered: "If I read it correctly, although the saint is very popular with women, he doesn't seem to have a special understanding of women. Please don't be angry if I am wrong. I think the saint's

Madam is not like a simple person. It would be good if she does no harm to the saint, but what if she does harm to the saint..."

Before Li Tianbao could wait for Wulanda to finish speaking, he had already cast a pair of cold eyes on his face.

Wulanda quickly explained: "Sage, I just have a good intention."

Li Tianbao smiled and then said: "I know you are a guy who has met thousands of women, but do you know that Wei Na once saved my life and risked her life to protect me more than once?"

.”

After hearing this, Wu Landa hurriedly said: "That's because I was overly worried. Please don't blame me." Li Tianbao reached out and patted Wu Landa on the shoulder and said, "It doesn't matter, I know you have good intentions."

Wei Na had already walked out at this time, and then smiled and said to Li Tianbao: "Looking at your serious face, what are you talking about?" "Nothing." Li Tianbao laughed and said, "I was just telling Wulanda,

Ask him to keep more good girls for me when he does business in the future."

Wei Na smiled, with a look of disbelief on her face, and said: "Haha, can you do it? You can have such a big appetite." The two of them were talking and laughing as Ulanda took them to the restaurant upstairs.

.

Through the window, Li Tianbao heard the sound of shouting, which was very lively. Opening the window, Li Tianbao saw that the lights in the courtyard were as bright as day. It is not easy for such a desolate place to have such a place.

, and unlike Tatuli, this place seems quite lively.

Li Tianbao quickly asked: "Why is it so lively here?"

Wulanda hurriedly came to Li Tianbao and replied: "This is a nightclub. In this generation, people from big cities often come here specifically to have fun. So it has been very lively here for so many years. There are also people from surrounding countries.

We import women here, so it naturally becomes an entertainment destination."

After hearing what Wu Landa said, Li Tianbao finally understood that this trafficker's voice was so good, and his influence in this generation was also quite good. This made Li Tianbao even more puzzled as to why these people

They all respect him so much.

"Sage, please come and have a meal." Wulanda said to Li Tianbao.

When Li Tianbao turned around, a large table was already filled with food. The table was not surrounded by a bunch of big men like Tatuli. Wei Na was the only one on the table.

Li Tianbao walked to Wei Na and sat down, and then Wulanda sat opposite him. At this moment, the door opened, and the four beauties who had just provided services to Li Tianbao walked in, and then walked straight to Li Tianbao.

Tianbao stood behind him and picked up the wine bottle to fill the wine glass in front of him.

Li Tianbao glanced at Wei Na and found that she was slowly chewing the delicacies on the table. Then he said to the four girls: "Let's eat together on the table. After you finish eating, let Ulanda send you back."

"What? Send us back." The four girls looked at each other, then took a peek at Ulanda, and found that he didn't have any objections. They were so happy that they didn't know how to express it.

Several girls hurriedly got to the table and started devouring their food. Li Tianbao looked at them and thought to himself, "These poor women seem to have suffered a lot."

After the four girls had finished eating, Wulanda ordered the others to retreat, and then said to Li Tianbao with a smile: "I didn't expect that the saint still has the heart of a Bodhisattva! It's really different from when he killed the horse thief."

Li Tianbao smiled and then said: "None of them died. I, Li Tianbao, never kill anyone. Those guys were just injured."

Wulanda said: "I admire the saint's bravery endlessly. I heard that you are in the antique business. I don't know if you like something." After saying that, Wulanda clapped his hands, and then they parted ways.

A beautiful woman wearing very little clothing walked in, dragging something that seemed a bit heavy.

Seeing that someone wanted to give a gift again, Li Tianbao thought to himself that this time this thing must be much more expensive.

When he led the two of them to Li Tianbao, he was no longer as polite as he was with Tatuli. Instead, he stood up and reached out to take the tray.

"Sure enough, it's a bit heavy, but fortunately, it's not particularly heavy." Li Tianbao opened the red cloth and saw a fine black metal woven thing. When he opened it, it turned out to be a very beautiful soft armor. It was strange.

The armor is soft but only has one right sleeve.

"What is this?" Just when Li Tianbao was about to ask, blue mist appeared immediately and attached to the soft sword to form a blue screen.

I saw a group of craftsmen smelting a black metal, and then refined it into gold wire through various processes. After several years of careful production, it was made into this soft armor. This made Li Tianbao even more excited.

Unexpectedly, just after the craftsmen had worked so hard to complete this item, the craftsmen in the work shed experienced a catastrophe - an earthquake. The craftsmen and the soft armor were all crushed to the rocks.

Until recently, workers in a mine dug it out, and the latter fell into the hands of the mine owner.

After seeing the situation, Lan Wu flew back to Li Tianbao's eye socket, and then he said a little strangely: "I don't understand what era it is, and I don't know what the use of this thing is.

"Sage, how are you? What is this thing used for?" Ulanda asked.

Li Tianbao did not answer Wulanda's question, and then asked: "Does this thing belong to a mine owner?"

"Yes, that guy is very rich. He comes to stay with us for a month or two every year. Everything is available here for food, drink, prostitution and gambling. You know, as long as a rich person gets addicted to gambling, he will do it no matter how much money he has.

Go in. The guy just lost this thing to me a few days ago, but I don’t know what it is. It just looks like it is a few years old. I know you are an antique player, but I have it here.

There was nothing particularly good, so I had to take this thing out."

"Xiaobao. How do you know this thing belongs to the owner of the mine? Do you know him?" Wei Na asked doubtfully.

Li Tianbao turned around and smiled: "Yes, we have known each other before, but that guy may not have paid attention to me." Wei Na was offended by his casual words, and Li Tianbao continued to examine the soft armor. Then he had a guess.

.

"This should be an ancient type of armor called 'golden silk soft armor'." Li Tianbao said to himself.

"Gold silk soft armor?" Wei Na and Wulanda said at the same time.

Li Tianbao had only seen this kind of thing on the Internet. He had said before that he was very interested in weapons, so he often checked things on the Internet. The gold soft armor was also something Li Tianbao had seen before.

And I paid special attention to it.

"Gold thread, this dark thing doesn't look like gold?" Wei Na asked doubtfully.

Li Tianbao smiled and said: "In ancient times, gold refers to metal, not necessarily gold. The so-called 'golden soft armor' refers to a vest woven with fine metal wires, which can play a protective role when worn on the body.

It’s actually a mini version of European chain mail.”

"Then this thing must be very valuable?" Wei Na said.

Li Tianbao continued to use what he had seen on the Internet to answer: "Weaving metal wires into armor was very difficult in ancient times, so its price was extremely expensive. The price is no less than the same weight of silver, and the quality is no less than the same weight.

of gold. So there is no possibility of widespread use.”

Wulanda laughed happily after hearing this and said: "Then this thing is just like a bulletproof vest. The saint must like it very much."

Li Tianbao sighed and told everything he knew about gold silk soft armor. Like chain mail, gold silk soft armor is very effective against slashing weapons such as knives. It can prevent knives from cutting into limbs.

The large contact surface converts the force of the knife into a relatively minor blunt injury. However, this effect has a limit. It is very limited for heavy slashing weapons such as axes. Such weapons can directly cut off gold soft armor.

.However, because the woven mesh is relatively sparse, piercing weapons such as bows, arrows, and spears can easily concentrate their force on a small point to cause huge pressure, thereby destroying the armor. Therefore, the effect of gold wire soft armor on piercing weapons is very limited.

.

For blunt weapons, soft gold armor has almost no defense capabilities. Fortunately, in ancient China, heavy armor was not popular, so there were not many blunt weapons, and the requirement for blunt weapon defense was not urgent.

There are many shortcomings of gold wire soft armor. Due to the limitations of ancient metal processing technology, the metal wire is relatively thick and the weaving is relatively rough, which results in the weight of gold wire soft armor. And because the soft armor is soft, its weight

It cannot be borne evenly, and the force is entirely on the two shoulders of the wearer, which can easily cause the wearer's shoulder fatigue. Shoulder fatigue on the battlefield means that the weapon cannot be wielded, which is fatal.

Although general rigid armor, such as plate armor, weighs more than soft armor, the weight is shared through the belt at the waist, the lower corset on the hip, etc., making it less tiring to wear than soft armor.

To sum up the above, gold silk soft armor is a kind of armor that is heavy and expensive but has limited effect. It is generally only worn by important people on important occasions to prevent assassination, or by those who appear on the battlefield but absolutely do not need to fight, such as the emperor's personal expedition.

.Body armor is just the opposite. Modern body armor uses composite materials, especially ceramics, to attenuate the momentum of incoming bullets, thereby reducing the bullet's lethality or even completely ineffective."

After listening to a large section of Li Tianbao's statement, Wu Landa said with some embarrassment: "It seems that this thing is not as useful as wearing a bulletproof vest? I really made a fool of myself in front of the saint."

Li Tianbao smiled and comforted: "Don't say that. In fact, body armor also has its limitations, because body armor is mainly designed to protect against penetrating weapons such as bullets. It also has better defense against blunt objects, but swords and the like

Slashing weapons will cause certain damage to the structure of the body armor. If the force is strong enough or sharp enough, it can be easily pierced by a sword." (To be continued...)
