Chapter 744 Young General vs. Rich Lady 47
Huo Xiao received a sword alone. It was black in color with intricate patterns. The scabbard was particularly fancy and had the word "Xiao" engraved on it, exactly the same as the word on his jade pendant.
This was made by the gods specifically for him and was a gift to him.
Huo Xiao was in a particularly good mood and couldn't help but smile in front of several soldiers.
"Each of you pick a weapon that suits you. Zhao Hai, you are used to using two swords, so pick two."
Zhuo Zhantu held the red tasseled spear in his arms and was reluctant to put it down, but he was also thinking about the sword and the knife, and he wanted both of them.
Huo Xiao smiled and said, "The weapons sent by the gods are enough. We don't need one or two. I'll give you one copy of each weapon. You can take it back and study it carefully. Since you like dealing with these iron things, I will ask the gods to send you a few more books."
Ji Yunhuan knew that Wei State’s smelting technology was very backward. During the Six Kingdoms period, bronze ware was still the main weapon, and iron ware was a rare commodity.
She didn't know how to smelt iron either, but she could buy more related books and download more videos so that they could study hard.
It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. In the future, Wei State's weapons will definitely be more advanced, and iron tools can also be used in farming and production.
However, this is a long process. Right now the six countries are in chaos and there are no conditions for developing technology. She still has to rely on her hard work to buy and support Huo Xiao.
"I bought a few extra tablets for Yan Changfeng last time. You can recognize most simplified Chinese characters now, so learning modern knowledge won't be a problem. Once I download the videos, I'll send them to you."
Zhuo Zhantu was so excited that he knelt down in front of the bronze mirror. "Thank you, God! The Zhuo family has been forging weapons for generations. Although I joined the army, I still want to carry forward the family heritage."
"If I could forge better and harder iron and make such a good weapon, I would die without regrets."
Yan Changfeng rushed in like a gust of wind, holding a tablet in his hand, and shouted: "I went to the general's mansion to look for the magic mirror. The magic mirror was not there, so I knew you took the magic mirror out. Apart from the military camp, you had no other place to go."
"Hurry, hurry, hurry, it's urgent, I'm about to win, but the battery is low. Do you have a fully charged power bank? I'm about to shut down!"
Ji Yunhuan was speechless about this internet-addicted teenager, but as long as he didn't cause trouble and obediently handed over the people in his hands to Huo Xiao's command, he would be considered contributing his part to Pingyang City.
Ji Yunhuan handed over two power banks and said, "Remember to make up for the tribute. This god will not do business at a loss."
Yan Changfeng immediately connected the power bank, and a few big green words appeared on the screen.
【Zombies ate your brain! 】
Yan Changfeng wailed, "I lost again! I don't believe it anymore. I will definitely win next time."
"God, you are too partial. I heard everything just now. You wanted to give the tablet to Zhuo Zhantu for free, and you also prepared two tablets and two mobile phones for Huo Xiao. With four products to use alternately, he never has to worry about running out of power."
"How come I have to pay for charging here? I don't accept it!"
Ji Yunhuan said disdainfully, "You only have those gold and silver treasures to show off, otherwise don't even think about touching these things. You still want to eat barbecue, drink Coke, and play games on a tablet? Dream on, you deserve to eat some pickled vegetables and porridge, as long as you don't starve to death."
"Zhuo Zhantu is here to study, Huo Xiao is in charge of a city, and he has to take all aspects into consideration. They use tablets to do serious work, but you only know how to play, haha~"
Yan Changfeng was despised by everyone and looked a little anxious.
"I'm not just playing around. I did learn how to make it rain. When the anti-aircraft guns arrive, it will be time for me to show my abilities."
He knew that he was neither good at literature nor martial arts, and he could do a little bit of everything but was not good at anything. However, he was still very interested in things like rain. It would be so impressive to be able to call the wind and rain!
The room was already full, so Huo Xiao took the magic mirror to the next room, and the others followed.
Zhao Shan sighed, "Fortunately, I made preparations in advance, otherwise I would have nowhere to put all these weapons. The gods are too generous."
Yan Changfeng had a sad face. The gods were generous to everyone except him, and they demanded offerings of anything.
Hundreds of large boxes appeared out of nowhere, and after everyone counted them, they found that there were a total of 8,000 sets of armor.
A life-size human model stood in the middle of the room, covered in shining armor that protected him well from head to toe. It was obvious that it was very expensive.
Huo Xiao was still wearing the armor left by his father. It had gone through many wars and was covered with scars. It had been patched up many times, and its protective effect had been greatly reduced, but it was better than nothing.
Huo Xiao touched the smooth armor plates. Each small piece was different and was customized according to the part it belonged to. The armor plates covered the cowhide, which doubled the protective effect. Even the best armor of the Wei State could not compare to this.
The voice of the gods came, vague and distant, as if it was ringing in everyone's ears.
"I have tested it. It can definitely block the swords of the Northern Rong people. The one worn by the model is a sample. It is the first one made. It was made by the shop owner himself."
"It was damaged after the test, but the boss has repaired it and reinforced it. It can be said to be the strongest set of armor. Little General, this set is designed according to your body shape. Try it on and try it out."
Huo Xiao took off his worn armor and placed it neatly on the table. Every mark and every spot of blood on it was a testimony to his father's bravery and fearlessness.
After putting on new armor and taking up his sword, Huo Xiao looked more calm and majestic.
"It fits very well, thank God."
Everyone else looked on with envy. War horses, armor, weapons, no general could refuse these things.
Zhao Hai even reached out and touched the armor, exclaiming: "It looks really good! The gods are really good to the young general. This set is much more valuable than the ones in the box. It's really majestic. Can the gods give us brothers a set as well?"
Zhao Shan kicked his brother's calf and scolded him, "It's good enough to have armor to wear, but you picked it! This one doesn't look cheap at all. If we wear such good ones, how can the gods afford to support us?"
Originally, he couldn't afford to support him, but with Yan Changfeng as a sucker, Ji Yunhuan sold a few antiques and was able to support him.
The improved version of the armor was so expensive that it hurt her, but she still asked her boss to make more, hoping to provide more protection for the soldiers.
"This kind of armor is quite heavy, most people may not be able to bear it, but you are all experienced generals, you should be able to wear it. There are only fifty sets in this batch, you can use them first, and there will be more later."
Ji Yunhuan teleported dozens of large boxes over, each of which contained a set of improved armor.
The eight generals cheered, excitedly picked out their favorite armors, and couldn't wait to try them on.
