In this year when everyone should not be tainted by capital, except for businessmen, most people regard their appearance as very important.
The head can be cut off, the blood can be shed, the country can be destroyed, but the face of the nobles cannot be lost!
Shah Jahan pointed out before the competition that in addition to setting a trap for the messenger, he was also setting a trap for the nobles.
After all, before starting, if those nobles did not agree, wouldn't their momentum be directly at a disadvantage?
After all, in public, if the crossbow of the other party's envoy did not achieve the expected effect, how could they dare to ask for a high price?
But if the opponent's crossbows meet the requirements, then the nobles cannot stop themselves from purchasing military supplies.
"Your Majesty, the purchase of military supplies is of great importance. Do we need to discuss it further?" After Shah Jahan finished talking about the purchase of military supplies, officials soon came out to stop it.
Since ancient times, military supplies have always been a hot commodity.
You may not earn much for one or two pieces, but if you buy 10,000 or 100,000 pieces, the profits will be huge.
Military supplies are time-limited and limited. If you buy 50,000 pieces today, it means you may not need them in the next two years.
It's all money that comes and goes.
"What's wrong, Prime Minister, do you think our Mughal Empire's crossbows are no match for the other party's?" Shah Jahan asked with a straight face.
"Your Majesty, I don't, but I think it's better for the military and industrial equipment to be in the hands of our own people. As we all know, bows and crossbows are all consumables. After a battle, hundreds and eighty of them will be broken." It's a very normal thing.
If we cannot control our own country's military supplies, wouldn't we be controlled by others?"
The Prime Minister rolled his eyes and said quickly.
"Well, it makes sense. This thing can indeed be controlled by all other countries. Let's just form a crossbow unit of 10,000 people. The other troops will still use the original equipment. If it breaks down in the battle, these people will still have equipment. Replacement, if the opponent does not choke our neck, we will have time to prepare," Shah Jahan said.
Although what the prime minister said made sense, Shah Jahan was not a fool, so he could naturally understand what the other party meant.
So I can only choose to settle for the next best thing and use less equipment.
However, the remaining Shah Jahan would not let them eat dust in the warehouse, but would equip them for his direct descendants.
An inch long, an inch strong.
Even if the effective range is only 2 more steps, it means that the opponent will have to be beaten for a period of time before he can make an effective attack.
If you take 20 more steps, it is very likely that you will have caused 10% loss to the opponent before the opponent fights back.
Among the powerful soldiers in the world, there are very few who can lose 30% without being defeated.
If the opponent's crossbow data is true, once the 40,000 crossbows are obtained, who in the entire Mughal Empire would dare to disobey his orders?
As for whether the other party would sell so much at once, Shah Jahan was not worried at all.
After all, there are only 0 and countless times for reselling military supplies.
And money is a good thing. In Shah Jahan's opinion, as long as the other party completes the first time and sees the money, as long as he has some ventilation, the other party will never mind making more money.
After all, the Mughal Empire was a country with a population of over 100 million. Coupled with the suitable climate, it could produce food three times a year. The Ming people had been purchasing food here for the past two years. Although the money was not said to be particularly large, it was not bad. The money.
If you really don’t have any money, you can borrow it from those disobedient people.
You must know that this is the Mughal Empire, not the Ming Dynasty that pays attention to benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom and trust.
Although everyone still pays attention to the appearance, but that is only on the stage, privately everyone is more dirty than the other.
When I ask you to borrow money, I look down on you.
I think highly of you, you can just steal the happiness, how dare you ask me for it?
Believe it or not, I will directly send you to reincarnate in advance?
With strong troops in hand, I am just.
Lao Tzu's words are the king's law. ,
Whoever dares to disobey will be killed and robbed.
If you don't accept it, I will dig up your ancestral graves directly.
Dear, this chapter is finished, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
