    ps: "Leisurely Tang Dynasty" seeks all kinds of support!  The air conditioner that constantly blows out cool breeze keeps the temperature inside the all-terrain vehicle in a range that is neither too high nor too low, and is the most comfortable.  "Brother, there are more and more orders. When will they be completed?" Yun Ye said with a grimace as he looked at the excel spreadsheet on the tablet in his hand.  "What are you afraid of? We're not begging anyone to place an order. Just sit in the back row when you have to." Li Anran, who was happily sipping a glass of iced grape wine, said without opening his eyes.  Although he had expected such an answer, Yun Ye's eyes were still filled with resentment.  There was no other way. During the period when they followed the army to fight, although the two of them did not participate in the encirclement and suppression of the Qiang people, they started doing business in Zuowuweili.  ¡°Normally speaking, with the ability shown by Li Anran, it would be too easy to do business.  But what left Yun Ye speechless was that his senior brother had chosen to do the extremely hard business of helping people build weapons.  Well, Yun Ye also admitted that it would be perfect for this transaction to be placed in Zuo Wuwei.  ?????????????????????????????????????????: There are so many orders on hand that it is impossible to complete them. The most important thing is that the profits here are terrifyingly huge.  ¡° Take the horse-killing knife in Cheng Chumo¡¯s hand as an example. Not only was Cheng Chumo responsible for the materials and production costs of the knife, but even the coal for refining was taken care of by the other party himself.  Fortunately, there are coal mines here in Longyou, and the use of coal in this era is pitiful.  Otherwise, this business may not be possible.  Unlike ordinary horse-zapping swords, the so-called horse-zapping sword made of hundred-refined patterned steel made by Li Anran is more similar to the Miao sword of later generations in terms of shape.  At the same time, it also has a bit of the style of the long-handled sword used in horse warfare during the Qing Dynasty.  All in all, this zhanma sword with a somewhat curved blade is both practical and quite beautiful in appearance.  ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: This knife was built by himself and his senior brother, and the cost of it was almost zero except for labor, and it was sold for a sky-high price of 2,000 yuan.  Although prices in the second year of Zhenguan were far from as low as during the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, this was two thousand taels. In later generations, it would be two thousand taels of silver or two hundred taels of gold.  It¡¯s been a busy two days.  I just made two thousand guan, such a speed of making money.  It immediately gave Yun Ye the idea of ??"The people here are stupid and there is a lot of money, so come quickly!"  When it first started, few people liked this extremely expensive knife.  "You can wait until Cheng Chumo uses this sword on the battlefield and kills thirty-six people in a row."  Moreover, after the weapons and people were cut off together, and some even the horses did not escape, Li Anran and Yun Ye's business immediately became popular.  First, a group of military attach¨¦s, led by Cheng Yaojin and Deputy General Niu Jinda, placed orders one after another, and then even some soldiers began to place orders.  Of course, these soldiers cannot spend two thousand guan like Cheng Chumo to buy a sword, but it does not prevent them from buying more common things.  What did you say?  Isn¡¯t it worthwhile to spend time on low-end products if you don¡¯t sell high-profit knives?  Under normal circumstances, it is really not worth doing this.  But who Li Anran figured out the casting method.  ???According to different types, ten sets of molds are made, and then all you need to do is pour the molten steel into them.  After cooling, grinding and assembling are done.  Although the quality of these mass-cast knives cannot be compared with Cheng Chumo's high-priced products, they are still better than the knives used by the soldiers themselves.  As for the price issue, Li Anran knew that all these soldiers were risking their lives, so he didn't insist on asking for money, except money.  Furs, herbs, and even some loot will do.  If it really doesn¡¯t work, you can still keep accounts.  Even if you have to pay interest, it is nothing if you can get good weapons and go to the battlefield first.  After more and more people discovered the benefits of the new sword, not only did Yun Ye receive more and more orders, but the morale of the entire Zuowuwei army also became stronger and stronger.  In the eyes of the soldiers, those Qiang people were not only the capital to make achievements, but also directly became living copper coins.  Considering that no matter how cheap the price of steel knives is, a large number of soldiers cannot afford it, Ang Lee later developed the product of gun heads.  "Compared to those knives that are often about one meter in length, the gun head, which only takes about thirty centimeters, is obviously much smaller in terms of materials.  With the gun head, it only needs to be matched with a suitable gun body. Not only is the lethality not worse than that of a knife, but it is much stronger to some extent.  After all, as the old saying goes, every inch grows stronger.    With a knife over one meter long against a spear over two meters long, as long as someone doesn¡¯t cut off the spear body immediately, the spear will basically win.  What's more, when Li Anran sold the gun head, he also included a shooting technique on the pretext of buying one and getting one free.  The shooting technique is very simple, there is only one move, stabbing.  But it was just one move, but it has already benefited many soldiers who went to the battlefield with new weapons.  Think about it, when the two sides were facing each other, the man with the knife was still rushing forward, but the man with the gun saw the opportunity and stabbed from a distance.  Even if not all enemies fell to this lightning-fast thrust, even if the gun body was shortened, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty still had the opportunity to dodge and strike again with the distance between the two sides.  Not to mention that Li Anran also revealed the use of a spear formation intentionally or unintentionally. It only requires a group of spearmen to form a formation. Is that effective? Haha Anyway, since the promotion of the spear formation, every time you kill an enemy,  Not only are their achievements getting better and better, but their own casualties are also getting lower and lower.  Under such circumstances, even if Li Anran leaves the sharpening of knives, guns, and assembly directly to the orderer, the production limit still causes the orders to pile up.  However, there are more and more supplies in the third carriage.  There are so many that Li Anran has already planned to build a fourth carriage at the next station.  Regarding this transaction, although Cheng Yaojin, the general of Zuowuwei, and Niu Jinda, the deputy general, did not openly support it, the lack of direct opposition showed their attitude.  It didn¡¯t take long before Zuo Wuwei¡¯s army finally stopped its journey and started to set up camp.  Feeling that his carriage had stopped under Wangcai's control, Li Anran didn't bother to discuss with Yun Ye whether to recruit more people to speed up the progress of building weapons, and got out of the car directly.  Then he turned over and stood on the top of the carriage, watching the densely packed army busily setting up camp.  Although Li Anran also knew that if he tried his best, the army in his sight would not be much different from ants.  But looking at the scene in front of me, I have to admit that the Tang army is quite powerful.  Especially the Zuowuwei army in front of us, under the leadership of Cheng Yaojin, showed strong combat effectiveness and discipline.  ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????  But Cheng Yaojin was different. Even if he only stayed for one night, the army would set up the camp and set it up well.  However, with Li Anran's eyesight, he could still see that this camp should not be a short-term one.  Immediately, he jumped out of the carriage and walked to the first carriage, and drove the lazy Wangcai out of the carriage.  With this period of running-in, Li Anran and Yun Ye no longer had to be as confused as they were at the beginning.  Less than half an hour later, three tents had been set up next to the three carriages.  " Two of them are where Li Anran and Yun Ye rest, while the other one is specially used for business.  After the camp was built, Li Anran drove the four-wheeled all-terrain vehicle out of the middle carriage through the assembled vehicle planks.  After parking the car between two adjacent tents, he removed one of the car doors on both sides, and then aimed them at the specially designed windows on the tent.  In this way, as long as the car's air conditioner is running, it can continuously provide cool air to the two tents.  Thanks to the current season and environment, the source of solar energy is very abundant, coupled with the high-energy battery system in the car, the air conditioner alone can last a long time in the sun for a day.  Under normal circumstances, as soon as the camp here is built, someone will come to inquire about weapons soon, but this time it was Niu Jinda, the deputy general of Zuo Wuwei.  Originally, Yun Ye thought that the other party was here to order weapons or even go through the back door to add something to the order, but after seeing the solemn look on the other party's face, he knew that things were not that simple.  (To be continued)
