As soon as Zeng Yi returned to Fengxiang City, Hua Qianyuexia and Jingfeng knew about it. The two of them went to Zeng Yi's place almost at the same time. Seeing the two of them, Zeng Yi smiled and said: "You are really anxious. I am worried."
I just came back, and before I could take a sip of tea and rest, you guys are here."
"What are you drinking? Let's talk first!" Hua Qianyuexia looked at Zeng Yi and said.
"Are we anxious too? After all, the war is about to begin. Later, later, I will give Brother Ni some good tea. I will ensure that you have enough to drink, brother."
"Okay, please sit down, you two, and listen to me slowly!" Zeng Yi sat down on the chair. After the two of them took their seats, he said, "Don't be nervous, it's a good thing. I want you to come."
You also know that I have some influence in the court. With our strength, it is very difficult for the four countries to jointly attack the Western Regions. Even if we can withstand the four countries, we will pay a huge price. This is also to improve our strength.
, I went back to the capital specifically this time to lobby all the officials in the court."
When the two of them heard Zeng Yi's words, their eyes suddenly lit up. Jingfeng couldn't help but said, "Is it possible that the imperial court wants to send troops to help us defend the Western Region?"
Zeng Yi rolled his eyes at Jingfeng, "You're thinking too much. I'm not crazy. I'm helping you for no reason!"
"That?"
"Does the imperial court want to support us through other means?" Hua Qianyuexia looked at Zeng Yi and said.
"Yue Xia is still smart, yes. The imperial court cannot send troops to the Western Regions for no reason, but after all, the Western Regions are an important place for the Central Plains trade routes, and the imperial court does not want the Western Regions to fall into the hands of the Four Kingdoms, especially this time when the Four Kingdoms form an alliance to attack the Western Regions. After my lobbying
Finally, the imperial court decided to open a batch of city defense equipment to players!"
"City defense equipment!" When the two of them heard this, they stood up. The major guilds were already coveting those powerful city defense equipment in the big cities around the imperial court, and even suggested several times that the game officially open these things.
"What's there?" Hua Qianyuexia asked impatiently.
"I know you are very excited, but you should also know that the imperial court will not open them all at once, but after my unremitting efforts, the imperial court has begun to open a big killer weapon! The city defense ballistae, also known as the legendary three bows
Bed crossbow!”
"Three-bow crossbow!" When the two heard these four words, their eyes widened, "How many are there?"
"A lot!" Zeng Yi said confidently. The imperial court gave Zeng Yi a lot. Maybe the imperial court was also a little anxious because of the lack of money. The old crossbows that had been replaced over the years plus some new ones, more than two hundred crossbows, were
Zeng Yi brought him back to the Western Regions.
After getting excited, the two of them looked at the smiling Zeng Yi, and suddenly remembered that the things sold by the imperial court were very dark, and since Zeng Yi was a famous profiteer in the game, the price must be very expensive.
"Brother Ni is really powerful. He can actually lobby the court to open such a good thing. If our Fengxiang City can install hundreds of ballistae to withstand the passage of Persia, there will definitely be no problem!"
"Hundreds of seats! You really dare to think about it. I just said yes. Can you afford it?" Zeng Yi was speechless by the shock. This guy actually wants to install hundreds of seats.
"Hehe, aren't I here for our Fengxiang City? Besides, Fengxiang City also has shares in this Fengxiang City!"
"Don't even think about hundreds of them. The reason why the imperial court agreed to open the ballistae is to enhance the overall strength of the cities in the Western Region. They will not allow them to be placed in just one place."
"Tell me clearly, how many can there be?" Hua Qianyuexia asked directly.
Zeng Yi stretched out his right hand, spread his fingers, and said: "Fifty seats, no matter how many more, I really can't explain to the court."
Fifty three-bow bed crossbows are actually quite a lot for Fengxiang City. You must know that in many strategic cities of the imperial court, there are only a few dozen, and they are not usually placed on the city walls. After all, these crossbows are valuable, and
It is also very troublesome to maintain. It was only installed during the war.
Of course the two of them also knew that Fifty Zuo was very good to Fengxiang City, and they were very happy in their hearts, but they did not show it on the surface. Looking at the expressions of the two, Zeng Yi understood in his heart that what they did was just
Just to bargain.
Before the two of them could speak, Zeng Yi spoke first: "Let me be clear, these things are not mine. I am just selling them on behalf of the imperial court. The money must not be less, and it must be paid with one hand and delivered with the other."
The two of them rolled their eyes at Zeng Yi, and Hua Qianyue asked, "Tell me, how much is it?"
"Hehe, it's actually not expensive, only 12,000 yuan per seat!"
"Twelve thousand! Isn't that expensive?" When the two of them heard the price, their eyes widened.
"It's really not expensive. Apart from the capital required by the court and the transportation costs, I didn't make a penny. If it were sold to other guilds for less than 13,000, I wouldn't even bother to talk to them!" To be honest,
, Zeng Yi sold it to two people for 12,000 yuan, but he really didn't make much money, so the court offered him 10,000 yuan. After adding in the money Zeng Yi promised to give to the guys in the Xueyiwei, there really wasn't much left.
"Twelve thousand is still a bit too expensive. Brother Ni, this Fengxiang City belongs to you too!" Jingfeng actually wanted Zeng Yi to pay part of the money.
Upon hearing this, Zeng Yi was reluctant, "I really don't have money. If you really think it's expensive, just buy ten less seats. I can also sell them to others and make a little profit to supplement this."
Funds to purchase a ballista for the first time." It is impossible for Zeng Yi to provide the money, and it is impossible for him to provide the money in this life.
Jingfeng's expression changed, and he looked at Hua Qian Yuexia. Hua Qian Yuexia said, "In that case, the money will come from Fengxiang City's public account. When will the fifty three-bow bed crossbows be available?"
In place?"
"This is fast. After untold hardships and a great price, those ballistae have been transported to the Western Regions. As long as the money is in place, the ballistae can be installed today!"
Fifty three-bow bed crossbows cost 12,000 each, which is 600,000 silver each. It seems like a lot, but for Tianxiang Guild and Fengyun Tianxia, two of the top guilds in the game, it actually doesn’t count.
What to pay? The 600,000 silver notes were quickly handed over to Zeng Yi. After counting them clearly on the spot, Zeng Yi immediately sent a letter to the blood-clothed guards and asked them to send fifty crossbows to Fengxiang City.
.
Six hundred thousand silver notes was indeed a lot for Zeng Yi. However, among them, only half a million were handed over to the court. A large part of the remaining one hundred thousand had to be given to the blood-clothed guards who transported them.
Taking into account the hard work of the boss, fourth and third, Zeng Yi calculated in the end that he had earned eight thousand taels of silver from the fifty ballistas.
"Made, I earned my hard-earned money. It seems that the price of the three-bow bed crossbow sold to other companies must be increased!" (To be continued)
