Chapter 477

Listening to Wang Yang talking with a lustful face, all the civil and military officials present couldn't help but feel weak all over. This kid actually started again.

Yuanyou, in the past, always thought that this year's name was quite good, but now when Shenma heard these two words, he was not thinking of the Song Dynasty.

It was not the Empress Dowager who gave this year's name, nor the young emperor Zhao Xu who used this year's name, but Wang Yang.

In addition, when many officials heard Wang Yang blurted out the steel crossbow arm 300 yuan, they suddenly changed their expression. Nima, can you be more powerful?

The cost of the iron armor of the Song Dynasty has gone from thirty stakes, making you more than eight stakes. Moreover, the Empress Dowager has ordered the cancellation of the budget for the new armor of various routes.

The demand for the Divine Arm crossbows in the Song Dynasty is no smaller than that of armor. Because of the workmanship and complexity of the Divine Arm crossbow, 50,000 new Divine Arm crossbows are required every year, and even the cost of each Divine Arm crossbow is only seven silos.

But the cost of the crossbow arm alone accounts for 70% of the cost of the entire crossbow, but now, you only need 300 yuan in one sentence. This amount of money is not enough for those officials with relevant interests to be greedy.

"Three hundred coins, the cost of a divine arm crossbow in the past was seven silos and five hundred coins, while the cost of the crossbow arm alone would cost five silos. If the future, the divine arm crossbows of our Song Dynasty used such low-cost mild steel plates as the crossbow arms. Then, the cost of the divine arm crossbow would be only about two silos and eight hundred coins."

"Mr. Xiao Wang, since your steel crossbow arms have just been made, how did you know that this thing can replace the God-arm crossbow? Are you not afraid that your steel crossbow arms are useless?" Naturally, a minister who began to be secretly anxious jumped out.

Wang Yang looked up and down at the minister with a mentally retarded look for a long time, then shook his head helplessly and said, "Sir, why don't Wang take a steel knife and a wooden knife? Who can we try more?"

"...You, hum, I'm too lazy to care about you." The minister's face turned black, but Wang Yang's stupid and arrogant temper was really unwilling to provoke him, so he could only retreat in disappointment.

At this moment, Gao Taotao could not help but walked out from behind the curtain, walked into the court, looked at the Yuanyou crossbow in Zhao Xu's hand, and then asked carefully.

Of course, Wang Yang would not hide it at all. "Now the Military Equipment Supervision Office has accumulated hundreds of thousands of kilograms of high-quality steel ingots, but the daily consumption is not large. So I thought about seeing if I can use it for the best of my money and save me from wasting it."

"As a result, when discussing with Zhang Shuling, I got an inspiration and started testing. Finally, I found that using such soft steel plates as crossbow arms is not only extremely cheap, but also extremely simple to make. What's important is that this crossbow arms are not afraid of rain and snow..."

Gao Taotao looked at the steel crossbow, listened to Wang Yang explaining its advantages, and felt more and more that throwing Wang Yang into the military weapon surveillance was indeed the best choice he had ever made.

No, it should be that no matter where he is thrown into the prison or the military weapon prison, he will always make a splash with his extraordinary mind, and it will still be amazing again and again. Well... he will always jump out and make a splash, making you unable to ignore its existence at all.

After many test shots before, nearly fifty shots were shot, and none of the crossbow arrows fell within those 300 steps. This is enough to prove that the strength of this Yuanyou crossbow will definitely not be inferior to that of the Divine Arm Crossbow.

"Little Wangqing, you really have the intention, but it just looks like this..." After hearing this, Gao Taotao had nothing to say except shaking his head and sighing. Well... and the shape of this crossbow seems a bit ugly.

Hearing Gao Taotao's words, Wang Yang couldn't help but smile shyly. "These two Yuanyou crossbows are just experimental products, so they have not been processed or modified yet. In addition, fortunately, they have received the joint support of Lord Lu, Bai Shuling, Zhang Shuling and others, so that these two Yuanyou crossbows can be presented to the imperial court in just one day."

"The cost is so low, and the structure seems to be simpler than the divine arm crossbow. Wang Wushan, if he is a skilled craftsman, how long will it take to be made?"

"This kind of mild steel can be cast directly, and only needs to be drilled in these three places, and then it can be installed on this crossbow. A craftsman is afraid that it will be fine to install fifty Yuanyou crossbows in one day."

"…Wait, you said you can install fifty one person a day?"

"Your Majesty, what Lord Wang said is not bad. The craftsmen in my Crossbow Floor Bureau are all skilled. As long as they have enough crossbow arms, each craftsman will install fifty crossbows a day. There is no problem." Bai Shuling quickly jumped out and said with a sense of presence.

"In the past, what our Crossbow Bureau lacked was not a crossbow body and crossbow machine, but a crossbow arms. After all, the crossbow arms were made with time and effort, and if you were not careful, all your efforts would be wasted. Therefore, every year, our A-Bow Bureau could produce at most 15,000 qualified divine arm crossbow arms..."

"Your Majesty, the steel crossbow arm of this Yuanyou crossbow weighs only three kilograms. Now the steel ingots accumulated by our Jiafang Office every day have reached 40,000 kilograms. Among them, mild steel is about 17,000 kilograms. A fraction of it was removed, and there were also 15,000 kilograms, which was enough to make five thousand Yuanyou crossbows..."

"...5,000 handles a day, 50,000 handles a day, I'm damn!" Even as the emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Xu couldn't help but swear.

Wang Yang seemed to think it was not enough and continued. "Our Jiafang Office produced 60,000 kilograms of fine steel per day. If we only guarantee the use of Yuanyoujia in the Song Dynasty and the rest were all produced, it would be 50,000 kilograms."

"If other materials can be supplied, more than 16,600 Yuanyou crossbows can be produced in one day..."

With a bang, the white-haired old general Yuchi was holding a Yuanyou crossbow, trembling and looking carefully. When he heard Wang Yang's words, his eyes suddenly widened, and another Yuanyou crossbow in his hand fell to the floor of the court. Then he rolled his eyes, covered his heart and thrust directly, and the court was in an uproar.

Wang Yang was shocked, Damn, it's over again, should I do this?

Wang Yang rushed over with a lunge and held the convulsing Old General Yuchi. "Go away from it... Let the Old General Yuchi breathe fresh air, huh?..."

"Fortunately, the old general just fainted and did not suffer a stroke." Wang Yang quickly inspected the veteran general Yuchi carefully, and finally showed a look of relaxation, let out a long breath, and announced loudly.
