447 Competition 2
Even if a crossbow costs 1 tael of silver at a time, 5,000 taels of silver are saved in one transaction.
And future transactions will definitely not be just this one time.
The total savings in the future will not be a small amount. "
Thinking of this, Shah Jahan couldn't help but praise his cleverness.
"Hey." Seeing the envoy leave angrily, the military advisor couldn't help but sigh. This guy's ability is really too poor and he is really not suitable to be the king of a country.
At the beneficiary of Shah Jahan. Word spread quickly.
On the day of the game, the scene was packed with people, and Shah Jahan received nearly 5,000 taels of silver just to buy a ticket.
Thanks to everyone’s comments, it will be posted soon
Nine fully armed Mughal Empire soldiers walked to the martial arts stage.
"Please," Shah Jahan said to the messenger as he watched his men enter the field.
I saw the messenger holding his hands for a moment, and a strong man came up with a crossbow.
"Fellow warriors of the Mughal Empire, the warrior next to you is a warrior who came to a mysterious country. Legend has it that the powerful crossbows in their hands can penetrate a layer of iron armor within 60 steps."
"It's fake. How can those crossbows have a range of 120 steps?" As soon as Shah Jahan finished speaking, the nobles below couldn't help but start talking.
You must know that the rulers of the Mughal Empire were genuine Mongols. Even if they became Turkic, they were still Mongolians.
Although they are not as good as those Mongolians chasing on the grasslands in riding and shooting, they are still first-rate.
They also know something about crossbows.
Even if they are masters of shooting, they have no shortage of them.
Modification of crossbows. The Mughal Empire never stopped.
Now that the other party directly revealed such astonishing data, the first thought that came to everyone's mind was not that the other party's weapons were so powerful, but that the other party was bragging.
"There is a saying in the Ming Dynasty that it is a mule or a horse, pull it out and run around. Since the other party said so, let's give it a try.
If the opponent's weapons are so powerful, then we will purchase 50,000 sets as equipment for the army. " said Shah Jahan.
Although he was the king of the Mughal Empire, he was actually the supreme leader.
But Shah Jahan's control over the Mughal Empire was far inferior to Zhu Youjian.
Although on the surface, Zhu Youjian needs cabinet approval if he wants to take money from the treasury, but with the current situation in Ming Dynasty, who dares not to listen to Zhu Youjian?
Zhu Youjian wants money, who dares to disagree?
But Shah Jahan was different. Although Shah Jahan now had considerable power, he could not fully control these powers.
Others recognize him. It's not because of how wise he is, nor because of his origin, but because he has the biggest fist now.
Similarly, if he wants to do something, he still needs the consent of everyone below.
If he wants to take out a lot of money from the treasury, he must get the consent of the officials below.
And according to Shah Jahan's prediction, even if the opponent's weapon performance is really excellent, the people below may not agree to replace the weapons for the army.
After all, in their view, those soldiers who do not belong to them are nothing more than expendable items.
In their minds, the combined lives of those soldiers may be less than 5 taels of silver. Spending more than 30 taels to equip the soldiers with weapons might as well be recruiting some soldiers.
But speaking directly, it is different. That lesson is not only about money, but also about the face of all noble gentlemen.
Dear, this chapter is finished, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
