This kind of armor has not even appeared in Chinese history. It was once the mainstream of European heavy cavalry in the Middle Ages. Plate armor, once known as the "King of Armor", once dominated most of the battlefields in Europe. The advantages of plate armor are
This kind of armor not only has strong defensive capabilities, but most importantly, is lightweight! Thanks to the excellent design concept, the plate armor can reasonably distribute the weight on the human body to the greatest extent when worn, allowing the wearer to not only make dexterous movements
, can have more lasting combat effectiveness!
certainly.
To realize plate armor, very mature steel technology is needed, which is also a headache for Liu Zheng.
but......
As long as there is a direction, these are not problems.
As soon as he returned home, he summoned Wei Tiezhu.
"Tiezhu, do we have an iron-making workshop in Yinzhou?"
Liu Zheng asked excitedly.
There are many iron mines in Yinzhou. Wei Tiezhu nodded without hesitation and said that the largest iron-making workshop in Yinzhou should have belonged to the county marquis, but it was sold to the Zheng family by the previous county marquis a few years ago.
"spendthrift!"
When Liu Zheng heard this, he cursed angrily.
In ancient times, the official control over the craft of cast iron was very tight. Private control of salt, iron, gold and silver was absolutely not allowed. Unexpectedly, the iron-making workshop in Yinzhou was actually controlled by the Zheng family.
I took it.
Liu Zheng suddenly felt a little melancholy.
I feel like everything I do is not going well.
At a loss?
no!
The ironworks must be captured!
Thinking that at this time, it was already afternoon, Liu Zheng rode his horse and walked slowly towards Fengming Tower. After yesterday's hot day, Fengming Tower had finally become famous. Although it was impossible to show up for just one day and give him an income.
In the case of 10,000 taels, it is definitely not a big problem to maintain a stable profit.
"What? You want an ironmaking workshop?"
Liu Zheng went directly to Zheng Yueru and made his request without saying a word.
Now Zheng Yueru looked at the county magistrate in front of her with a smile. She suddenly felt very happy. Yesterday, she tried her best to please Liu Zheng in front of her. This guy refused to let go of "Drunk Yinzhou" at all, which made Zheng Yueru so angry that she even wanted to
Like the other three families, they went to the county governor's house to threaten them.
It's fine now.
He delivered it to the door himself.
"Haha, Brother Liu, of course this matter is not impossible..."
She looked at Liu Zheng with a smile, and felt a sense of revenge in her heart: "It's just that my Zheng family spent a lot of money to take over this iron smelting workshop, and you also know that cast iron is a business that is sure to make money without losing money.
."
Liu Zheng sneered: "What does Miss Zheng mean?"
Zheng Yueru poured a glass of wine for Liu Zheng in an understatement and said with a smile: "Brother Liu is also a cheerful person. The head of the Zheng family asked me to send a message to Brother Liu on his behalf. If Brother Liu is willing to hand over the sales rights of Zuiyinzhou to
From my Zheng family, not only will the Zheng family not let Brother Liu suffer, but they will also lend a thousand troops to Brother Liu in order to protect themselves!"
really.
Liu Zheng smiled in his heart: "It is not my Liu Zheng style to borrow troops to protect ourselves. Miss Zheng, you and I have a cooperative relationship. It is not impossible to leave Zuiyinzhou to you. But..."
Zheng Yueru raised her eyebrows: "But what?"
Liu Zheng laughed: "But, does Miss Zheng only want Zui Yinzhou, not something better?"
