Chapter 89 Yun Family

Dai Yu looked at everything in front of him. This was a scene that he had never seen before in the King of Wu for ten years. As a subordinate, he actually dared to laugh and play in front of the Marquis. The guy who was teased by Xiaobai was actually looking for weapons to deal with the Marquis' favorite leopard. If it were placed in the Kingdom of Wu, even if the leopard the King of Wu liked would eat you, no one would dare to resist.

Wei Dongbao had already brought back all his brother's family and arranged them all to the Yan family's village. The Yan family's village household was well-educated and would not bully their lives, so the marquis even gave the land again. Those who had children at home could also study and read with the Yan family. It was a great thing to be able to study in this year. After three generations of the martial arts family, no one who recognized the word was recognized. He thought it was worth selling his life to the Yun family for Dai Yu's brother.

What's more, due to Yun Xiao's protection, the families of these people were not given a low-class citizenship. I heard that the families in those robes were given a low-class citizenship and their lives were miserable. The women in the family would be called by the officials from time to time, and I heard that many people had been hung.

When Wei Dongbao returned, the official family was about to recruit his sister. As a result, Wei Dongbao led his brothers into the yamen and sold the Supervisor's legs. He lit up the waist sign of the Liangyun Hou Mansion and left. The case was reported to Chang'an and suppressed it without even a blister. However, the school's roster was filled with Dali Zheng's grandson.

The Galgo family was sharpening their heads and sending their best children to the school. Who would offend Yunhou for a leg of the supervisor? Even though the saliva system is highly developed on weekdays, the censors who look at all directions and listen to the ears of the censors. After all, the new censor Liu She also has a grandson.

After rubbing his wrists, Dai Yu picked up the rifle again.

"You can't practice this way anymore and your hands will be useless."

Zi Feng persuaded him, for some reason, Zi Feng always had an abnormal relationship with Dai Yu. Almost everyone could see that, could this girl have moved her heart?

"The Marquis is going to go to war, so we will definitely need to wait. If you don't hurry up and train, it will drag everyone down when fighting."

"Forget it, don't practice it first. This is a scarecrow. If it were a real person, your wrist would have been broken long ago. You should practice the iron-feed crossbow first, and you will reach the point where you hit the target at least 500 steps. As for practicing with a gun, wait until your wrist is restored before practicing. I don't think there will be a guy with bandages in the team before going out before going to war."

Yun Xiao walked back with his hands and walked to Dai Yu and his subordinates. Seeing that Dai Yu and his subordinates had an unnatural expression on their faces, he understood. If a warrior cannot be recognized by the head of his family in martial arts, their status will be greatly affected. After seeing the magical shooting of the goshawk, the violent brutality of the Cangxiong, and the power of the mana bull, they no longer had the pride of the Jingchu swordsman.

At first, he was very angry that he was captured by the mid-detachment, but now he realized that even if the two armies were fighting against him and others, he was not an opponent. Not to mention the super-long cavalry, the Damascus-style scimitar used by the Huns could easily break the long sword in his hand.

If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools.

The Wu Kingdom produced a lot of salt and iron, but I had never seen the smelting skills of the Yun family. The scimitars they created had snowflake-like cloud patterns, and the sharp and hard blades could cut more than a hundred copper coins without being damaged. Now the weapons in their hands are no longer long swords, but more suitable for cutting and slashing. Taking advantage of the inertia of horses' sprint, they could cut the scarecrow into two pieces by just wavering their hands and chopping them randomly.

I can't imagine how much damage such weapons would cause to infantry. No wonder the 5,000 infantry and cavalry of Buzhi on the banks of the Yellow River would be defeated so miserably.

"Don't think too much, I will instruct Batu to train you. Only those who are capable here can eat and drink well. Do you see the target five hundred steps away? Those who hit all three arrows can drink alcohol and eat meat. Those who fail can only eat steamed buns and eat pickles. If you don't want to eat pickles, practice well. I will ask Batu to supervise you, remember that the Huns will not do anything else, and if you make mistakes, they will only talk with whips.

If you don’t want to be beaten, do what he said. He has experienced the same thing. So, don’t complain.”

After Yun Xiao finished speaking, he took the eagle and Cang Xiong away. The ferocious Batu immediately ordered someone to hand the iron-fetal crossbow to Dai Yu, who was confused.

The training in the horse farm was full of enthusiasm, and the blacksmith shop by the river was also busy. Unexpectedly, when the battle was set off so quickly, the big iron hammer was quenching a piece of fish scale armor the size of a palm. Seeing Yun Xiao coming in, he picked up a piece of fish scale armor in his hand and walked over.

"Mr. Marquis, what you said is true. Using vinegar to quench the armor can indeed make the armor harder." After saying that, he picked up an unfinished saber next to him and slashed it down accordingly. Sparks splashed, leaving only a shallow knife mark on the armor. It was neither broken nor cut through. It was very difficult to withstand this knife in the hands of the big iron hammer, a pair of iron-shot irons that have been thrusting for many years.

Yun Xiao picked up this piece of armor and looked at it carefully. After a closer look, he could still find some subtle cracks. It seems that acetic acid increases the hardness of the armor, but also increases its brittleness. If it is hit by a blunt object, the armor will probably be broken. However, the main function of these armor is to prevent the enemy's crossbow arrows, not to resist the enemy's chopping.

Compared to swords, Yun Xiao prefers to use crossbow arrows to solve problems.

"How much does this pair of armor weigh?"

Yun Xiao looked at the armor and asked.

"Even if you count the helmet, you'll look about thirty or less than forty pounds."

It's still a bit heavy. The cavalry weighs forty kilograms more, and the consumption of horses is also amazing.

"Can you still lose some weight?"

"With vinegar quenching, it increases the hardness. This will reduce the thickness and make the thickness thinner and it will be no problem to reduce it to thirty kilograms. If you reduce the protection force, it will not work, and even the crossbow arrows can't stop it."

The Big Hammer said after estimating for a while.

"Then it will be reduced to thirty kilograms, which will also be good to reduce the weight of one or two kilograms of cavalry. The most important thing about cavalry is mobility, and the most important thing about armor on the body is to protect the attack of crossbow arrows."

"No, I'll tell you to do it now."

He picked up a saber and tried the sharp blade, took the ten copper coins handed over by the goshawk and piled them together. He swung the knife and chopped them down in half. Checked the sharp blade, without any loss. Yun Xiao nodded with satisfaction. He didn't believe that there were better hand-to-hand weapons than pure steel sabers in this era. Even the King of Yue Goujian Sword, it was probably this level. However, Yun Xiao didn't think that that thing would equip Xiang Sanqiu's army on a large scale. If it was probably good, they were still using garbage inferior iron swords.

The green wheat rolled in waves, as if it was a green ocean. The farmers were doing farm work with the scorching sun on their heads, and the news that the owner was about to go to war had no effect on them. Those who had been digging food from the soil for generations were not suitable for going out for wars. The young young man who had not seen the last time was sent back by the Marquis halfway. The farmers just took the land well. I didn't hear Mr. Yan say that being content with poverty and willing to do it. Farming is the way of farmers, and there is no one who is in the family.

Many small businessmen left Xianyang and rented shops in Yunjiazhuang to start a business. Many mule and horse merchants in Xianyang, Chang'an also often visited Yunjiazhuang. The mule and horse market not far from the entrance of the village was often crowded. For a Hun horse, they yelled at the neck.

The Yun family's business method is different from others. The newly appointed steward Wei Dongbao abandoned the tradition of bargaining in his sleeves and changed it to a more efficient auction. Wei Dongdao on the high platform was holding a small wooden hammer in his hand.

"The Xiongnu's healthy horse, full-term foal. The base price is 80 stakes, and each time the price is 5 stakes..."

Although he still had a Jiangnan accent, no one dared to laugh at him. I heard that the newly appointed butler was very fierce and gave up the supervisor's legs in Jiangnan.

Capital has become profit-seeking from the day he came to this world. It is not surprising that the wealthy Yunjiazhuang can attract the attention of merchants. The Yunjia wine, food, paper, and even fat sheep and horses are all things that attract them. Yun Xiao believes that with the arrival of merchants, his fiefdom will be more prosperous, and his hands will be cramped when he collects taxes.

After watching the auction in the Mule and Horse Market, a good horse that I don't want actually sold for 100 jin. The Huns were born to be horse wranglers, and the half-boys of the Huns served these horses very well. It should be the time to drag the batch of mares that Liu Cheng bought in a few days. I hope these Huns can help them cultivate horses as good as those on the grassland.

The horses came to the school again, and the school is now in a semi-stop state. The workers who worked as supervisors have not yet arrived. Yu Lao was commanding the workers on the grassland to build a four-wheeled carriage, Yun Xiao, which requires at least 200 such things. The workload is very high, but fortunately there are many carriages from the past that can be modified. Otherwise, this would be almost an impossible task.

After walking around and returning to his home, fortunately everything was going smoothly. He walked into Canghu's yard, where three injured women now live. Canghu entered the yard with a cloud of roar, hurriedly closed the yard gate, and guarded himself at the entrance of the yard.

When Luzhu, Lurui sisters and Le Niang saw Yun Xiao coming in, they hurriedly got up and bowed to the ground.

"Thank you, the marquis will take it in. We and the three of us are willing to serve as slaves and maids."

The older Le Niang spoke first.

"Green beads and green stamens, you go out. I have something to say to Le Niang."

The two sisters looked at Le Niang resentfully, then went out and brought it with them.

"You did a good job in Lao Yu. I heard Cang Hu say that you are always worried. Put your heart in your stomach. I am not the one who can kill donkeys. If you want to stay in the Yun family, the Yun family will support you forever. If you want to get married, the Yun family will also help you find a good family. If you have any requirements, tell me. I am not here, I can find Cang Hu and he will help you solve it."

"Mr. Marquis, I am a homeless person. I was sold by my mother at the age of four. I can't remember wherever my home is. The Yun family is my home, and I don't go anywhere. I beg the Marquis to take it in."
