In addition to making weapons and armor, the mine also produces agricultural tools and cooking utensils for civilian use, which is also a very important part of the income, enough to make up for Liu Rui's investment in building weapons.

……

What surprised Liu Rui the most was the surprise brought by the young Zhuge Liang.

Since the mine started to operate, Zhuge Liang came here and began to guide the craftsmen to smelt and forge...

Although the smelting technology of this era can only produce bronze weapons, there is a difference between bronze and bronze!

After the guidance of Zhuge Liang, the weapons produced by the weapons workshops in the mining area have risen by several grades!

Liu Rui got the news and rushed to the mine immediately to see what happened.

After all, the increase in weapon power is directly related to the combat capability of the troops, so how could he not care?

Previously, in the information of young Zhuge Liang, in addition to the strategy, he only saw the manufacturing ability, but he did not expect this manufacturing ability to include smelting and forging weapons. A genius is a genius, thinking about it is terrifying...

And at the same time, there was also Taishou Chen, who learned that Liu Rui was going to come to the mine, so he came with him as soon as possible...

After seeing Zhuge Liang, Liu Rui couldn't wait to ask: "I heard that Mr. Kong Ming has developed a better weapon? Come and show it to me and Chen Taishou."

"Master, don't be in a hurry." The young Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "In the past few days, a batch of new weapons has indeed been created, and I will ask someone to fetch them for the master and Lord Chen to see."

It didn't take long for Zhuge Liang to get two sabres and hand one of them to Liu Rui.

Liu Rui took the saber full of anticipation, pulled the saber out of the scabbard with a squeak, and began to observe carefully up, down, left and right...

But after watching it for a while, I couldn't see why. In the end, he shook his head and said, "Isn't this the standard saber used by our Wei Jun cavalry? It doesn't seem like there is any difference?"

I saw Zhuge Liang said calmly, "Then please take another look at this sword, my lord." Then he handed the other saber into Liu Rui's hands.

Liu Rui pulled the saber out of its scabbard again, but this time, he still couldn't see any difference between the two sabres. The only difference was that the color seemed to be a little darker.

The face then asked inexplicably: "This is not much different from the handle just now."

But when Zhuge Liang heard the words, he smiled proudly: "No, this is the new sabre that I have recently built. It is very different from the one you used before..."

"Huh? What's the difference?" Liu Rui's eyes flashed brightly, waiting for Zhuge Liang's next words.

Zhuge Liang immediately explained to Liu Rui: "Why doesn't the lord not use this saber to slash with that saber to test its sharpness?"

Liu Rui thought it right, so he handed the saber just now to Prefect Chen and said, "Sir, how about we try it?"

"Okay!" Chen Taishou watched from the side, and his heart was already unbearable. After taking the saber, he immediately drew it out of the scabbard.

"Your Excellency is ready, I'm here!" Liu Rui said, and immediately danced the saber in his hand, and slashed at the saber in the hands of Chen Prefect!

Seeing him slashing, Prefect Chen also waved his sword to meet him!

"Dang bang", sparks flew everywhere!

After the two knives fought each other, everyone hurried to watch, but Chen Taishou was already stunned at this moment...

It turned out that after he carefully looked at the saber he was using, he found that a very obvious big gap had been broken on the blade!

However, the saber in Liu Rui's hand was completely damaged, with only a slight scratch on the blade.

Such a weapon is beyond Chen Taishou's understanding. Based on his previous experience, no matter how sharp a weapon is, it is impossible for him to be unscathed when slashing with other weapons!

Now that such an artifact appeared in front of him, how could he not be surprised, and immediately stood there with his mouth wide open, speechless...

And Liu Rui is more than stunned. He has already turned up a storm in his heart now. Such a powerful weapon can be said to have completely exceeded the technological level of this era. Liu Rui now understands that the summoned Zhuge Liang seems to be stronger than himself. The original time and space, that historical Zhuge Liang is much stronger!

At this time, Chen Taishou, who had recovered from his recovery, shouted excitedly: "Good! Good! Such a good knife is the only thing I have ever seen in my life! Liu Rui, this time you really did a great job! Hahaha! Ha ha……"

After laughing for a while, Prefect Chen seemed to remember something, and hurriedly asked Zhuge Liang: "That... Mr. Kong Ming, how much money does it cost to build such a knife?"

Zhuge Liang immediately gave the answer: "The cost of each knife is about 10 taels of gold."

"Hey..." Chen Taishou breathed a sigh of relief immediately. Although the knife is a good knife, the price is really...

However, he also understood the principle of getting what you pay for, so he made a decision immediately.

"Liu Rui, the production of this kind of knife must be classified as a top secret in the future! All craftsmen involved in the manufacture must be protected by special personnel, and the production workshop must be stationed day and night!"

Liu Rui naturally knew how serious this matter was, and immediately clasped his fists and responded, "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely send someone to guard it day and night to make sure everything is safe!"

"Yeah!" Chen Taishou heard this and felt a lot more at ease.

Afterwards, he said to Liu Rui: "Also, this kind of weapon must be supplied to the army in the future, and it cannot be outflowed. The price... Let's calculate it at the cost price."

"Uh..." As soon as Liu Rui heard it, he scratched his head and said, "This kind of weapon is expensive to make, and supplying the army is also a matter of responsibility. I am a member of the army, and I don't want my share of dividends, but we After all, there are still [-]% of the shares in the hands of the wealthy businessmen in the city, if they don't get dividends by then, I'm afraid it's hard to explain..."

Chen Taishou listened and felt that it made sense. After thinking about it carefully, he said to Liu Rui: "Well, we can give up the part of the income from civilian goods to make up for the loss of dividends of the wealthy businessmen. There should be no problem. However. In this way, your loss will be great, and I don't want to do this, but now the national disaster is at the forefront..."

Liu Rui already knew what Chen Taishou was going to say next, and before he could finish speaking, he clasped his fists and replied, "It is Liu Rui's duty to protect the family and the country. Please rest assured on this point!". ,,.

1085: Handy Weapon

After receiving Liu Rui's affirmative answer, Prefect Chen inspected the mining area again and left.

After Chen Taishou left, Zhuge Liang said to Liu Rui: "My lord, this time I also made two weapons specially for you!"

"Oh? What weapon? Take it out and take a look." Liu Rui's eyes lit up when he heard the words.

"Don't worry, my lord, I'll be here soon."

After a while, several craftsmen brought the two weapons to Liu Rui.
