Saint Qin Batu

However, Chen Ping waved his hand to signal everyone to continue watching.

The soldiers of the Tianjin Army who were still standing beside the carriage had already stood about a hundred steps away from the palace wall at some point.In the hand, it seems to be holding something.

"Prepare!"

"Shh!"

Under the command of the captain, the ten soldiers immediately lined up in two rows, with those in the front row kneeling in front of them.

"put!"

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The sharp piercing sound rang in everyone's ears.

Continuous crossbows shot towards the palace wall like raindrops.

"Boom! Boom!"

Arrows were inserted fiercely into the palace wall one by one, and some of them were only left with arrow feathers that were still shaking violently.

"This is what Da Qin most wants to sell to His Majesty the King. With it, I believe that Luo Xiting's power can rise to a huge level."

Chen Ping's words are like poisonous snakes, beautiful and full of temptation, but also extremely dangerous.

Chapter 19 The Murder Caused by the Repeating Crossbow

On the palace wall, the swaying arrow feathers have not completely stopped.The lingering sound of violent shaking seemed to be still lingering in everyone's ears.

King Luo Xiting blushed even more. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.

There is no crossbow in Rossiting, or in other words, on the entire continent.Not to mention a crossbow like this, which not only has the power and range of a bow, but also can shoot continuously.

Looking at the palace wall as if there were thorns growing on it, even a fool can see the power of this continuous crossbow.

Moreover, Rossiting has been at war with Yardley all year round, as an ambitious monarch.King Rossiting knew a lot about military affairs.

If something like this can be used on the frontier army...

A smile could not help but appear on King Rossiting's face.

"Mr. Messenger, please sell us such a crossbow! The price is easy to negotiate!" King Luo Xiting grabbed Chen Ping's arm and said firmly.

Chen Ping smiled and said, "The cost of such a crossbow is not cheap. Every part needs to be carefully polished. Has His Majesty the King really decided to buy it?"

"Of course!"

The king's tone became a little firmer.Even, many nobles around are ready to move.

Different from the prefecture and county system of the Qin State, on this continent, whether it is the Luoxiting Kingdom or the Yardley, they still implement a system of enfeoffment similar to that of the Zhou Dynasty.

Every nobleman basically has his own territory, and also has his own private army to defend his fiefdom.

If you can own a continuous crossbow like this, even if you can't equip much because of the high price, the benefits you can bring to your private army are still huge.

Chen Ping didn't hesitate when he saw this, he directly stretched out five fingers and said, "Each crossbow, one hundred gold coins!"

Quiet, the nobles who were eager to try, suddenly fell silent like a deflated ball.

Expensive, this is too expensive.

The Rossiting Kingdom is already the richest country on the entire continent, and its annual tax revenue is only about 300 million gold coins.

If you want to equip the continuous crossbow army that has always been like this, you need 10,000+ gold coins for the continuous crossbow alone, and if you count other expenses, it is estimated that one-tenth of the empire's tax revenue will be gone.

"This, Mr. Messenger, isn't the price too expensive?"

Although Chen Ping's quotation made the king a little unacceptable, the huge power of the Liannu still moved his heart, so he could only lick his face and hope that Chen Ping could lower the price a little.

Chen Ping still kept a smile on his face, and said: "Your Majesty, the materials and production of each of these crossbows are extremely complicated. Even the most skilled craftsmen of our Great Qin can only make one at most in a month." .The price is already very kind.”

The king was not in a hurry, but continued to persuade: "However, we still can't afford such a price! If there are no customers, where will your income be?"

As the most affluent country on the mainland, it is obvious that King Rossiting is not ignorant of the way of doing business.

He obviously knows the reason for asking prices all over the sky and paying back the money when he lands.

Sure enough, Chen Ping showed a thoughtful look, obviously hesitating.

"Since this is the case, to be honest, His Majesty the emperor of our country took out these things because he wanted to get enough food to prepare to return to the country.

Gold coins and the like are of little practical significance to us. If Your Majesty wishes, he can exchange grains of equivalent value for Liannu.

If His Majesty the King is willing to exchange grain, we can directly subtract the general price.So, what do you think? "

Chen Ping's words made the king's eyes light up.However, immediately there was still a hint of embarrassment.

"Mr. Messenger, although Luo Xiting has the most fertile land on the mainland, and the grain output is sufficient, the abyss is far away from us after all, and the consumption in the middle may be huge! Moreover, there is an Asian land in the middle." Deli, you must know that our relationship with Yardley is not harmonious..."

Chen Ping smiled when he heard that, then shook his head and said: "In this case, we can't sell this crossbow to Your Majesty. However, Your Majesty reminded me. Maybe Yardley is also interested in it. "

Chen Ping's words made King Luo Xiting's face change.

Today, the border between the two countries is basically at a level, so a fragile peace is maintained.Just a straw may break this peace, not to mention, this Lianbow is not a straw, but a heavy hammer.

In fact, there is a lot of loss in transporting food from Rossiting to the abyss.However, it is impossible to be as huge as he said.

On the entire continent, a dozen or so silver coins are enough for an average commoner's family to spend a month.In addition, Rossiting and Yardley are both rich countries with smooth roads.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to achieve a one-to-one concept of loss when transporting grain from Rossiting to the abyss.All in all, each repeating crossbow was almost ten to twenty gold coins cheaper.

Of course, His Majesty the King also knew about it.However, His Majesty the King, who was used to domineering, saw that someone actually threatened him with an enemy country, and his heart inevitably surged with anger.

"Hmph! Mr. Messenger, don't forget where this is!"

King Rossiting's power in the country is indeed unique.With just a roar, the palace guards who were still watching immediately surrounded him.

Looking at the hundreds of palace guards who quickly surrounded him, Chen Ping sneered disdainfully.

"Mr. Messenger, do you think it's funny?" The king's tone became a little bit colder.

"It's nothing, I just thought of some interesting things about my hometown." Chen Ping said with a smile.

Seeing Chen Ping's relaxed face, the king couldn't help but frowned and said, "What's interesting?"
