"The best armor in the world? How can there be a difference between first and second in this kind of thing?"
Lei Hong and others sitting aside looked unbelieving.
Even Liang Xiao looked confused.
He has a piece of soft armor in his hand, which is a family heirloom specially prepared for him by the bad old man. It is made of the best sky silk as the main body, with a small amount of fine gold covering the outer layer, which is enough to withstand various sharp weapons.
Later he learned that this layer of so-called "fine gold" was the extremely rare white dragon gold.
To be fair, without this soft armor, he might have died when he rescued Jiang Fuxue.
There are no mysterious things like true energy or spiritual energy here. The reason why a knight becomes a knight depends on experience, martial arts and reputation.
But Liang Xiao saw it from Izzard's expression: This well-informed Persian businessman was extremely confident that the armor in his hand was the "Holy Armor".
"Lan Linghou has made good silver, so I am happy to sell..."
Izzard's poor Zhou language made Yabu, his companion, unable to listen anymore and quickly explained.
"Marquis Lanling, Mr. Izard thinks you are a good person because you are fair to the horse merchants in the Western Regions and the people of Yanzhou. We are more convinced of this after we came to Yanzhou, so he hopes to show you the Holy Armor first. "
Liang Xiao immediately left the table and bowed slightly to Izzard.
Izzard was flattered and quickly opened the wooden box at his feet.
A piece of white gold armor came into view.
Liang Xiao’s expression changed!
Isn't this the color of the white dragon gold layer on my soft armor?
The armor in front of me is a full-body armor, including the pantaloons and armor.
Connecting these armor parts are golden silk threads, suspected to be sky silk.
Liang Xiao immediately sent someone to notify Pu Yuan.
Pu Yuan came to the scene and was surprised when he saw the armor: "White Dragon Gold?!"
Izard twirled his mustache, with a proud look on his face, and said, "According to the people in the Kingdom of Heaven, this metal is called holy gold!"
"Tianri Kingdom? Is it related to Tianri Sect?"
The unfamiliar name made Qin Baili and others stunned.
There is a Tianri Sect in the Great Zhou Dynasty, which is extremely rampant in the north and south of the Yangtze River.
Lei Hong defeated a Tianri Sect rebel army last year, thus capturing Tuoba Jie, which started the prelude to the destruction of the Tuoba clan.
Izard said: "The Tianri Sect is their state religion! However, Marquis Lanling, now..."
Liang Xiao understood and said, "Let's take a look at the armor first."
Pu Yuan pulled Liang Xiao aside and whispered: "Master Hou, I can confirm that the whole body of this armor is made of white dragon gold. It is incredible! The treasure armor that the Sword Clan asked us to forge as a reward is only enough. Put on the upper body armor..."
Liang Xiao asked: "Is it possible for weapons made of silver dragon gold to break armor?"
Pu Yuan explained: "The silver dragon gold weapon is the best weapon in the world, but it is very difficult to penetrate the white dragon gold. At least none of the silver dragon gold weapons we have made can break through the armor..."
"I understand. I'll ask about the origin later." Liang Xiao couldn't hide his excitement and nodded slightly.
The two returned to the scene, and Liang Xiao immediately ordered someone to fetch the axe.
Lei Hong personally held the axe, looked at Izzard, and said awkwardly: "Mr. Izzard, you need a big ax to break the armor. What if this armor is really given to the Sa family..."
Qin Baili and others on the side couldn't help but smile.
Leihong's magical power was astonishing, and the entire Liang family army knew that even an ox bone might not be able to bear the axe.
Obviously, he was afraid of being blackmailed.
Izard still said confidently: "If you can break it, I will give you ten thousand taels of silver!"
"If so, silver." Yabu quickly helped Lei Hong translate.
Lei Hong was relieved and raised his ax high in public.
"etc!"
Liang Xiao suddenly stopped and told everyone to stay three feet away from the armor, and then warned: "Leihong, pay attention to safety."
Lei Hong was startled: "Master Hou is worried about the collapse of the Sa family?"
"You are still smart..." Liang Xiao smiled bitterly and nodded, as if he had foreseen the outcome.
Lei Hong looked moved and turned around to raise the ax again.
An overwhelming ax hit the back of the armor under everyone's nervous gaze.
"Keng——"
There was a metallic trembling sound in the ground, almost making everyone's scalps and gums tingle.
The broken ax head spun a few times at low altitude before falling to the ground with a muffled sound.
Leihong held the ax handle, looked at the intact armor, and fell into deep thought: "Master Hou..."
Liang Xiao had already expected this and asked Lei Hong to rest aside. He then went to get the Tianlong city-breaking halberd and struck the armor with the halberd blade.
No matter how hard Liang Xiao tried, or even stabbed with the tip of his spear, he was still unable to break the armor.
Liang Xiao roughly understood the strength of the two materials.
Silver dragon gold is thick and suitable for weapons, but it is too heavy for armor.
White dragon gold is light and suitable for armor, but it cannot guarantee sharpness and lethality when used as weapons.
If silver dragon gold weapons want to break this kind of white dragon gold armor, they may need to use extremely strong impact. Otherwise, they can only cause damage to enemies wearing this kind of armor through heavy blows, just like a war hammer hitting heavy armor.
Now Liang Xiao finally understands why Silver Dragon Gold must be a weapon and White Dragon Gold can only be armor to play its real role.
"Marquis Lanling, how do you feel about the swelling?"
Izard's poor language made Liang Xiao laugh.
"Mr. Izard will never deceive me." Liang Xiao praised.
Izzard was overjoyed and said: "How much does Lord Lanling think the armor is worth?"
Liang Xiao said: "In our great Zhou Dynasty, the best armor is worth a hundred taels."
Izard was just stunned when Liang Xiao changed the topic again and said: "But that is an ordinary military armor. Such holy armor should be a priceless treasure."
Izard nodded repeatedly and said, "Do you think it is worth twenty thousand taels of silver?"
"Twenty thousand taels?! This, this, this..." Lei Hong's expression changed drastically.
If the other party hadn't come with good intentions, Lei Hong couldn't help but say: "You might as well grab it!"
Liang Xiao frowned.
Izzard said quickly: "Don't worry, we can still talk!"
Liang Xiao picked up the armor and extended three fingers to Izzard.
Yabu on the side couldn't stand it anymore and laughed dryly: "The price offered by Marquis Lanling shouldn't be three hundred taels, right? Three thousand taels is a bit too little..."
Liang Xiao shook his head and said seriously: "How about I give you thirty thousand taels?"
"Thirty thousand taels!" The whole audience exclaimed.
Only Pu Yuan smiled and said nothing.
Liang Xiao knows the goods, as he expected!
"Can you really give me thirty thousand taels??" Izzard couldn't believe his ears and asked again.
"You can also exchange the thirty thousand taels of silver for sugar of the same price, but you need to wait for the sugar to be shipped from the capital." Liang Xiao said.
"I want sugar! Deal!!"
Izard knelt down to Liang Xiao on the spot, imitating the horse dealers in the Western Regions and kissing the ground beneath his feet. Liang Xiao quickly helped him up.
After Liang Xiao signed the contract with him, he suppressed the joy in his heart, took the armor, looked at it carefully, his eyes fell on the three lines of small words on the waist armor, and his pupils shrank!
