"What gun does the young hero want to buy? At what price?"
"Do you have any treasures here?" Lin Ming asked.
"Treasure gun?" The man didn't expect this young man to say something astonishing. The price of a treasure gun is at least 10,000 taels of gold, and a good one can easily cost 20,000 to 30,000 taels. How much money does this young man have?
In fact, Lin Ming did not have that much money, but he could make a reservation and raise the money.
"Young hero, we don't have treasure-grade guns in our store. If you want treasure-grade swords, we have a lot of them."
"Is that so..." Lin Ming was a little disappointed. He didn't expect that the Divine Weapon Hall did not have any treasure weapons and guns. There were too few of them.
The clerk said: "The quantity of this treasure-level gun is too small, but the demand is not small. There was one in the store two months ago, but it was already reserved and sold."
"Oh? As far as I know, warriors from Tianyun Kingdom rarely use guns, right? This treasure gun is very popular?"
"Well, it is very popular. It is rarely used by warriors, but... the army will use it. Some generals will buy treasure guns, but because there are too few treasure-level guns, even some generals with great military exploits do not have treasure weapons.
Gun, it’s very difficult for young hero to buy a treasure gun in Tianyun Kingdom.”
So that's it. Lin Ming immediately understood in his heart that the gun is the most useful weapon in the army. Since ancient times, 80% of the famous generals used guns, and the remaining 20% also used Daguan Dao, Fang Tianji, etc.
These are long weapons similar to spears, and there are really not many that are famous for their swords.
When marching and fighting, we often have to fight on horseback. At this time, swords are too short, so we have to use weapons such as halberds, spears, spears, and spears. Spears and spears are the most commonly used. With a spear in hand, even if it is
Even when caught in the chaos, one can fight in and out. A one-foot-long spear can kill more than a dozen people at a time. This is beyond the reach of swords, knives, axes and other weapons.
So Sweeping Thousands of Armies is a move unique to Gun!
Therefore, even if the generals of the Tianyun Kingdom use swords when practicing martial arts, they must learn to use guns after joining the army.
"Forget it, I'll talk about this treasure-level gun later. It's better to buy a better one. The price of a good gun is probably tens of thousands of gold. I don't have that much money now. I used to get all the money from Mr. Mu Yi.
Take it. Although the inscription talisman I made is valuable, I don’t know if Mu Yi really used it so much. Mu Yi has a lot of trouble these days. Tens of thousands taels of gold is not a small amount.
Ask him for it again. Besides, some well-made guns won’t do much harm, especially since my current level of martial arts training is not high enough, it will be difficult for me to exert its power even if I am given a treasure weapon.”
Thinking like this, Lin Ming said: "Forget it, show me other guns. I want a good gun."
"Okay, young hero, wait a moment." The clerk said, turning around and taking out a six-inch-thick gun shaft from the camphor wood box. The gun shaft was completely black and seven feet long.
When guns are sold in stores, the gun barrel and gun head are often sold separately. The gun barrel is stored in a camphor wood box to prevent moths and corrosion, while the gun head is immersed in tung oil and preserved to ensure that it is always bright. Customers can choose the right one according to their own preferences.
The gun barrel and gun head form a finished gun.
"Young hero, please take a look." The clerk handed over the barrel of the gun.
Lin Ming weighed the gun barrel in his hand. It weighed about thirty kilograms. It was obviously not made of metal. He put some force on it and the gun barrel was very elastic. Lin Ming had no doubt that if the gun barrel collapsed into a full moon shape and then let go, it would be able to
Crack the skull of a beast.
Although this kind of gun shaft is not made of metal, it can cause more damage to a person than a metal pole.
"How much does this gun barrel cost?" Lin Ming asked.
"One thousand two hundred taels of gold."
Even though Lin Ming had been prepared for it, he was secretly stunned when he heard the price. A gun barrel alone was so expensive. You must know that an ordinary sword and treasure only cost a few thousand taels of gold. This gun is not a treasure.
The waiter saw Lin Ming's surprise and explained: "This is made of ebony wood. It uses the finest ebony wood that has grown for hundreds of years. It is soaked in mountain spring water for seven or forty-nine days to swell.
It is deep-fried in oil for three days to blow away the ebony wood chips and short wood fibers, leaving only the toughest wood fiber skeleton, which is mixed with golden wood silkworm silk and twisted out. Finally, the surface is wrapped with golden wood silkworm silk.
Made from strips of cloth soaked in tung oil for three years."
"Whether it is ebony wood or golden wood silk, they are precious materials that are difficult to damage with swords. Coupled with various special techniques, this gun barrel will never be cut off during the battle, and can even pull off the enemy's sword.
You can rest assured, young hero."
Lin Ming's heart skipped a beat after hearing this guy's enthusiastic introduction. The production process of this humble gun barrel was so complicated. Moreover, although Golden Wood Silk Silk is not as precious as Sky Silkworm Silk, it is definitely worth a lot of money if used in such quantities.
, and ebony is also very expensive, let alone a tree that is hundreds of years old.
Moreover, there are also defective products in the production process. For example, if the frying temperature is not controlled well, and the ebony wood has knots, it will not work. Moreover, the gun barrel must be as straight as a ruler. Anything that is not straight and uneven is a defective product.
The ones that were eliminated increased the value of the gun barrel a lot.
No wonder it's so expensive. Ordinary people can't afford such a gun without food, drink, and hard work for a lifetime. If this kind of gun falls into the hands of the people, it can be treated as a family heirloom and passed down from generation to generation.
The clerk said: "The most expensive part of the gun is the pole. Whether the gun is good or not depends on the pole and the head. The production process of this gun head is simpler. Generally, a good gun head only costs a few hundred taels of gold. Young Xia doesn't care.
The spearhead made of moiré iron is only eight hundred taels, and the total price will not exceed two thousand taels. What do you think, young hero?"
Lin Ming played with the gun barrel and felt like he couldn't put it down. Not to mention the elasticity and toughness of the gun barrel, its feel was absolutely first-rate.
Unfortunately, it’s too light!
"Is there anything more important? For example, a gun weighing several hundred kilograms."
"Oh?" The man was slightly shocked. A gun weighing several hundred kilograms requires at least several thousand kilograms of strength to dance smoothly. Does this young man have such strength?
However, the doubts turned out to be doubts, and the guy still took out a gun shaft made of pure black iron. The gun shaft was also six cents thick, seven feet long, and weighed more than 400 kilograms. This guy had obviously practiced. Although it was a bit difficult to hold it,
Anyway, I took it out.
"This gun barrel costs eight hundred taels of gold."
Although black iron is expensive, the production process of pure black iron gun shafts is simple, so metal gun shafts are actually cheaper.
"Young man, please be gentle, it's very heavy." The shop clerk handed Lin Ming the black iron gun shaft with some worry, but Lin Ming didn't expect that it would come out as easily as picking up a wooden stick.
This made the shop clerk's eyelids twitch slightly. This boy has so much strength! He is like a ferocious beast in human form.
Lin Ming took the gun barrel in his hand, weighed it, and asked, "Is there anything heavier?"
Heavier? Still heavier?
The guy was stunned and said, "There are heavier ones too, but they are very expensive."
"It doesn't matter." In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Lin Ming flashed the golden ticket in his arms. He still had eight thousand taels of gold on him. As long as it was not a treasure-level gun, he could afford it no matter how expensive it was.
The guy was slightly shocked when he saw the stack of gold tickets. Such a thick stack of gold tickets, it turned out to be a rich man! He said respectfully: "Young hero, please come with me."
After saying that, the guy went straight to the second floor.
