"This thing is really magical." Li Shimin looked at the ground standing in Yan Fei's hand with a fiery look. This magical thing greatly stimulated him.

"This is Qianliyan." Qin Qiong, who was standing beside him, exclaimed in surprise.

This kind of ability that only exists in legends plays a decisive role in the battlefield. This is how it is said that the enemy's initiative is. With this thing, as long as the main general is not a fool, it is difficult to lose. The sword and armor were indeed very good before, but compared to this, it is not worth mentioning at all.

"This is a gift for Your Majesty." Yan Fei laughed, "and the armor and swords before were all. As long as Your Majesty can help me open the way home, everything is easy to say. I have countless supplies in my house. As long as Your Majesty needs it, I can sell it to Your Majesty at a discount."

"Oh?" Li Shimin asked curiously, "What are there? How many are there?"

"What does Your Majesty think about the past and armor?" Yan Fei asked out loud.

"Unprecedented fine product." Li Shimin nodded. "The armor is extremely strong, and the sharp sword is extremely sharp. It's just too few and it's not very useful."

"This is just a sample." Yan Fei responded with a voice, "As long as your Majesty can send troops to attack Jie Li's golden tent and defeat the Eastern Turks, and open up the road to home for me. I am willing to give His Majesty a thousand sets of armor and sharp blades for free as a thank-you gift."

"One thousand sets?" Li Shimin was a little surprised. If he only had one set, he would be considered a good-looking product at most and it looked good. He could only wear it for the main general. But when the main general needed to use armor and sharp blades, the situation of the battle was already irreversible.

But if there are enough 1,000 sets of armor, it will be completely different. You can use these armors and sharp blades to form a truly elite army. If you put it on the battlefield at critical moments, you can have miraculous effects.

"So you still have a lot of armor and sharp blades like this?" Li Shimin asked with some uncertainty.

After all, in his opinion, such high-quality fine artifacts must take a long time for many skilled craftsmen to create, and are treasures that are unavailable. Just like making a pair of bright light armor, it takes dozens of craftsmen to work for more than 200 days. Yan Fei's tone is as ordinary as the weeds in the ground.

"How much do you need?" Yan Fei looked calm. "The price is definitely not expensive. By the way, Your Majesty, Duke. How much do you think this set of armor is paired with a sharp blade?"

Li Shimin and Qin Qiong were both stunned. Qin Qiong thought about it carefully and wanted to speak, but he was stopped by Li Shimin.

The Tang Dynasty itself was also the peak era of armor craftsmanship. It was known as the peak era of ancient armor craftsmanship together with the Western Han Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty.

Although the Burenjia in the Northern Song Dynasty was very strong, the country was too poor and its reputation was buried in vain.

Only the Tang Dynasty and the Western Han Dynasty fought east and west with the support of their national strength and gained a huge reputation. For example, the Tang Dynasty was often at a disadvantage in terms of number of people when fighting against foreign countries. During the Battle of Hengluo, it was 20,000 to 200,000. However, the Tang army often won victories, and the armor played a great role in this.

The department responsible for making armor in the Tang Dynasty was the Beidu Military Equipment Supervisor and the Jiafang Administration, which was established a few years later. In ancient times, the most expensive and most famous Mingguang Armor came from these two departments.

The manufacturing of Mingguangkai is quite labor-consuming. First make iron into an armor piece, then make a note, roughly grind, perforated, and cut the note, miscellaneously grind, and finely grinded. After the nail piece is processed, then use leather strips to woven into an armor. There are also many steps such as hanging lining inside to prevent wear of the skin.

According to the "Yanxi Festival" record of the Tang Dynasty, it took more than 40 craftsmen to work for more than 200 days to create a pair of Mingguang Kai. This extremely strong Mingguang armor is naturally expensive. Even if the labor costs of the craftsmen are not calculated, the production costs alone are as high as hundreds of cents.

In addition to black-hearted merchants, under normal circumstances, the quality of items is proportional to the price. The better the quality of things, the higher the price. Top-level armors like Mingguang Armor can only be afforded during the Tang Dynasty and the Western Han Dynasty. And they also have to be after the beginning of Zhenguan and the Western Han Dynasty after the reign of Wenjing.

For example, the Tang Dynasty was in a weak stage at this time and was unable to build the Mingguang Armor on a large scale for equipment. Therefore, when Li Shimin heard Yan Fei say he was willing to give away thousands of sets of armor for free, he was naturally very concerned.

This era attaches great importance to commitment and credibility. The so-called saying "A word is not just a saying," it is really something that can be said and done.

People with reputation and reputation, like Qin Qiong, who travel around the world, have people who are respectfully treated, and live better than in their own homes. Changes of loyalty again and again can be reused without being suspicious.

But if you don’t have credibility, it’s the best explanation for Wang Shichong, who dominated Luoyang.

Wang Shichong, who occupied the huge grain of Luokou Cang and occupied the world's largest city. After defeating Wagang, he took all the generals of Wagang under his command, was originally the most powerful existence in Fengyan at the end of the Sui Dynasty. However, because his person had no credibility, he betrayed his relatives and was eventually destroyed by Li Shimin.

This is true for the gentry, and the same is true for farmers. No one will change his mind when the agreed things between the villagers in the countryside. If he doesn't keep his word, he will be poked at the back and scolded in the countryside, thus ruining his reputation or even no one is willing to marry.

This is especially true for merchants. If the merchants of the Tang Dynasty had no credibility, they would not be able to do business at all. Even the imperial merchants could not do it.

So Li Shimin did not doubt what Yan Fei said, at least not until Yan Fei violated his promise.

Li Shimin thought for a moment and said, "This set of armor and sharp blades can cost at least 600 stakes."

In fact, Li Shimin is already talking less about this, because even the Mingguang Armor is about the same price. The plate armor obviously has stronger defense and protection range than the Mingguang Armor. In addition, a sword that cuts iron like mud, it is not an exaggeration to him.

"Three Hundred Swords." Yan Fei raised three fingers. "I only need three Hundred Swords for such a set of armor and a long sword."

Li Shimin and Qin Qiong looked at each other, wondering if Yan Fei had a brain problem. The cost of this set of plate armor is more than 300 currencies. In addition to the labor and transportation costs, Yan Fei is doing a loss-making business? As for whether Yan Fei will cut corners or something, such things do not exist in this era. Because once you do this, there will be no future.

"What are your requirements?" Li Shimin didn't believe that Yan Fei would do a loss-making business, so he must have other requirements.

"There is only one request." Yan Fei directly made his own request. "As long as His Majesty can defeat the Eastern Turks as soon as possible, I can find my way home."

After a pause, Yan Fei showed a merchant-like smile, "not only a long sword for armor, but also a grain cloth, salt and oil, fruits and vegetables, building materials, special medicines, communication equipment, etc. Simply put, the food, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, and other things that you don't know but are very useful can be supplied in large quantities, and a discounted price will be given. The only requirement is to pay the payment for gold, antiques and jade, designated wood, etc.."

"This thing is OK, too?" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and pointed at the drone that was constantly hovering in the sky.

"Of course." Yan Fei's smile became more and more cordial. "As long as you pay, there is nothing I don't have."

Indeed, Yan Fei did not lie. For him, what he could see and imagine in the time and space of the Tang Dynasty was simply a matter in the modern industrial world. Just like that set of plate armor, if calculated at the price of 300 jin, considering that the exchange rate of gold, silver and copper coins is roughly about 700 grams of gold.

In the modern world, the recycling price of gold is roughly around 280 yuan per gram, and the total price is 200,000 yuan.

Even if a set of this kind of armor uses alloy technology, laser engraving technology to polish and color plating, the production cost is absolutely no more than 200,000 yuan. Moreover, in this era of scale, the more quantity, the cheaper the price.

It is normal for daily necessities to rise in the modern world, but the prices of industrial products have always decreased with the expansion of scale.

Yan Fei said that he was giving a discounted price, but in fact he had already made a big profit. This is the plunder of advanced civilizations against unadvanced civilizations. If you don’t have it, you can’t make it. If you can only buy it, you can only be slaughtered.

Moreover, the actual huge profits of this industrial product are not very large in Yan Fei's opinion. What he values ​​more is medicines. The advantages of advanced drug technology in the face of generation gap are fully revealed. After taking my medicine, you can cure the disease and survive. Do you think you can buy it?

In Yan Fei's opinion, it doesn't matter whether other materials are made or not. As long as medicines can open up sales, there will be everything.

Li Shimin stared at Yan Fei deeply, as if he wanted to see him clearly.

In this era, materials were scarce, and because of the extremely poor traffic conditions, it was very difficult to circulation. There were no high-speed rail, no airplanes, no freighters. There were only camels and horses. It was not enough to transport the materials Yan Fei said from his distant hometown to the Tang Dynasty, and collect horses and cattle and sheep from all over the world.

If it weren't for the testimony of the drone that was still flying in the sky, Li Shimin would have ordered people to drag Yan Fei down and chop off his head. Because this was just nonsense. But it was precisely because of the drone, which could fly in the sky, that he could not understand, that Li Shimin had to believe everything Yan Fei said.

Ancient people were awe of flying in the sky, which could be seen from the flying patterns on various murals. Yan Fei personally made a plane that could fly in the sky, and could clearly see the things on the ground. At this time, in the eyes of Li Shimin and Qin Qiong, Yan Fei was already regarded as a god-like existence.

It’s not that Yan Fei pretends to be a god and is a god every time he goes to a place, but that the locals really cannot understand it. The existences that cannot be understood are directly classified as gods, and he has no choice. In fact, Yan Fei has no idea of ​​being a god at all. It’s just that this kind of thing is beneficial to him and can save a lot of trouble.

"Who are you?" Li Shimin finally asked this.
