"You are smart. You want to trade a wild boar for a musket. What's more, this wild boar was hunted by me myself."
Li Chen cursed with a smile. When he saw Su Zhenting smiling shamelessly, but still looking at him with hopeful eyes, he waved his hand and said, "I am in a good mood today. Tell me, how many muskets do you want?"
"This number."
Su Zhenting stretched out a palm with five fingers spread wide, as if Li Chen couldn't see it.
"Five thousand!?"
Li Chen gritted his teeth and said: "You are treating me like a rich man. Where did you get so many? These days, the Ministry of Industry has only been able to produce two thousand usable ones, and they have to allocate manpower to make them."
For elixirs, don’t even think about five thousand. It’s impossible. Even if I went up to make it for you personally, it wouldn’t be that much.”
Su Zhenting coughed dryly and silently swallowed the fifty thousand pills that he almost said out loud.
Although it was quite different from his own psychological expectations, it was not too little to beg for nothing. Su Zhenting immediately said: "Two thousand is just two thousand. I will think of a way to let the generals below wait in line. Those who really can't wait can't wait."
Just smooth it out a bit and barely cope with it, that's enough."
The musket that showed its prowess during the last rebellion is no longer a secret, but not many people know about the Great Qin Divine Thunder.
Despite this, the generals were like red-eyed rabbits, staring at the quota of muskets.
"dream!"
Li Chen refused without hesitation and said: "I already have plans for this batch of muskets. Your side is not within the scope of consideration for this batch. Don't even think about it."
Seeing that Li Chen was reluctant to take out two thousand, Su Zhenting became anxious and said: "Your Highness, you don't know. Ever since the power of muskets became known to everyone, those little brats have been clamoring to be equipped one by one. The Logistics Office
The doors are all blocked. Hu Shifan, General Hu, has always used the back door when going to work from home these days, otherwise he would have been blocked by those generals and would not have been able to escape."
"There is still no way to do this. Those who have the connections, they went directly to the minister's house and complained one by one. They all said that they had reasons for equipping muskets, and they sounded quite reasonable."
"I really have no choice. If I don't go out with some muskets to satisfy them, I won't be able to do anything."
Seeing Su Zhenting's miserable face, Li Chen frowned and said, "Is it really that serious?"
"It's that serious!"
Su Zhenting said categorically: "Your Highness, our Great Qin army has not updated its weapons and equipment for a long time, let alone such a powerful weapon as a musket. Everyone is looking forward to it."
Li Chen pondered for a moment and said: "What you said makes some sense... Anyway, I will give you five hundred muskets. As for how to distribute them, you can discuss them with Hu Shifan."
Seeing what Su Zhenting wanted to say, Li Chen immediately said: "Don't be too little, this batch of muskets is going to be sent to Yueyang Pass. Things must have priorities. No matter how anxious they are, they can still be more anxious.
Teeth?"
"It's okay if you want a musket. Now it's hard for a skilled woman to make a meal without rice. Let the troops below find people. Find skilled craftsmen and send them to the Ministry of Industry to be trained by Song Yingxing. As long as they are trained, the quota of that person's production will be
Just give them priority.”
After Li Chen finished speaking, he turned around and left, fearing that Su Zhenting would pull him back and continue to ask for the musket.
