- "Tell me honestly, how powerful is this thing?"
Immediately after calming down, Liu Qi became concerned about the true power of this thing again.
After all, he has seen the range of this thing. He is not one of those useless emperors who just eat minced meat.
At this time, the most powerful Eight Ox Crossbow in the Han Dynasty has a range of less than 800 steps.
Today, the range of this thing definitely exceeds that of the Baniu Crossbow. Moreover, when operating this thing, it obviously takes much less effort than the Baniu Crossbow!
Although the Eight Ox Crossbow is powerful, the reason why the Eight Ox Crossbow is called the Eight Ox Crossbow is that when the Eight Ox Crossbow is fired, it requires extremely powerful force.
It can¡¯t be operated by just one or two people, but what Liu Deng made was obviously operated by only two craftsmen.
If the power is similar, the actual value of this thing is too great!
"Your Highness, how do you say this?"
Liu Deng scratched his head, this thing is completely a waste of money now.
¡°Moreover, this is a completely bottomless pit, although Liu Deng can still afford it now.
But, as the biggest vested interest, how could the emperor get some money?
You can¡¯t let yourself be the one who¡¯s been taken advantage of all the time!
"What do you say? Tell it like it is!"
Liu Qi stared, wishing he could give this kid a slap in the face.
"The most recent launch of this thing, from a distance of three miles, directly destroyed a large section of the palace wall of Jinyang Palace"
If you want to make people pay, you naturally have to come up with something useful. Liu Deng is naturally familiar with this kind of thing.
"Is this true?"
The palace walls of Jinyang Palace were built when Liu Heng was here and are in the process of being renovated.
Liu Heng specifically asked Liu Qi to participate in the project in order to familiarize him with the construction costs of civil engineering projects.
He naturally has a say in the strength of the palace wall. From a distance of three miles, he can knock down the palace wall with one blow. If this is used in siege
There is no city gate in the world that can withstand a blow from this thing!
If the Han Dynasty¡¯s army was equipped on a large scale, would the Three Kingdoms in Lingnan still have a foothold?
Out of their range, if they blast through the city gate with one blow, the armored army of the Han Dynasty will naturally be able to march straight in!
Then do you still need to worry about whether they are respectful or not?
Do you still need to swallow your anger?
"I guess you have something else to do, right?"
Just when his blood was boiling and he was about to ask about the price, Liu Qi suddenly calmed down.
If this thing is so good, how can this kid take it out so easily?
Just like horseshoes, Liu Qi felt itchy with hatred when he thought of this incident.
This bastard has long thought of a solution to the problem of horse hoof wear, but he is just holding back.
We waited until the entire court's inn system was given to Dou Pengzu, and then directly signed a fifty-year contract.
This kid came up with this method, which not only made Wang Hui lose face, but Shen Tujia's cheeks hurt when he mentioned this matter.
It is a trivial matter that the court lost money or something, but the face of the court was really thrown into the pit by this kid.
Now that this guy is bringing it out in such a big way, he obviously doesn¡¯t know what evil he is holding back!
"Your Highness is wise!"
Liu Deng smiled awkwardly. The days of the Han Dynasty were getting more and more difficult. Now even Liu Qi, a gentleman, started to use his brain.
¡°Stop flattering!¡±
Liu Qi felt depressed for a while. This boy has become tough now, and he has long ignored the rolling eyes.
"This thing is still in the preliminary stage. When casting, we can only use pure copper for the time being"
Liu Deng was a little embarrassed and told the truth.
"Pure copper? How many copper coins does this door cost?"
If it¡¯s just expensive, it doesn¡¯t seem unacceptable. After all, it¡¯s really useful when attacking a city!
"The door I saw today has a total of fifty-seven thousand strings"
"Hiss¡ª¡ª"
Liu Qi was originally prepared for this little lion to open his mouth, but he was still frightened by the price.
Don¡¯t look at Liu Deng¡¯s money, which is tens of millions.?, However, this is based on the fact that all he does is big business with huge profits.
On the one hand, it is a monopoly state with no competitors at all. On the other hand, it is also because almost all of his business is costless.
¡°However, Liu Deng is the only one in the world who has this ability.
The annual tax revenue of the entire imperial court is now only more than 10 million yuan. Adding in the expenses of various places, the remaining amount for this year is only 23/10.
If you calculate it this way, even if there is a balance of three million guns a year, this is only sixty cannons.
There are so many cities in the Han Dynasty, so there are too many places that need to be defended. If a city has ten gates, it is simply an astronomical number.
However, considering the range advantage of this thing and its strategic value, Liu Qi was really hesitant for a while.
"How long can this thing be used?"
Liu Qi asked again after hesitating for a moment.
"Cough¡ª¡ª"
This is the most embarrassing problem now. The casting technology of this era, even Cai Xin, can only guarantee that the chamber will not explode within ten rounds.
As for after ten shots, it depends on God¡¯s will
After all, the tension of gunpowder is so terrifying that ordinary metal cannot withstand it.
What¡¯s more, in this day and age, there are no effective flaw detection methods. Naturally, there is no way to completely detect hidden flaws inside castings.
This yield rate is completely uncontrollable. The only advantage is that after this thing really explodes, the remaining pieces can be recycled.
"What are you asking for? What are you thinking about there?"
Seeing him hesitate to speak, Liu Qi suddenly felt a bad feeling.
"Thiscan only fire ten rounds for the time being"
Liu Deng is a little embarrassed, which is really a bit sorry for its worth.
"Ten rounds a day? It's barely acceptable"
If it¡¯s a deterrent effect, it seems acceptable.
"No, it's not"
"Ten rounds a month?"
Liu Qi frowned immediately. This was a bit tasteless to say.
"There are ten rounds in total"
Liu Deng¡¯s voice was lowered by more than half for no reason. This is really a bit sorry for the audience
"Are you here to entertain me?"
Liu Qi was stunned for a moment and then stormed off, what a bastard! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
