Chapter 1497 You Have to Buy It Even if You Have to Hold Your Nose

Lu Bu nodded slightly.

Previously, Jiang Tian arranged for him to register as an air pirate hunter with the World Government, just to make extra money.

Now, as the business alliance is doing more and more business, it is accumulating more and more resources.

Lu Bu was called back by Jiang Tian.

Responsible for training his subordinates and leading the team to complete tasks.

Naturally, he will never use his identity as an air pirate hunter again.

now.

Jiang Tian had something on his mind.

Now the development of our own sky island and business alliance is increasingly on the right track.

Many of the following things have dedicated personnel responsible for them.

For example, Luban is in charge of wood craftsmanship.

Of course, Jiang Tian also "thoughtfully" assigned a group of apprentices to Lu Ban.

From Jiang Tian's point of view, Lu Ban is the god of craftsmen after all, so letting Lu Ban do all the work is a gross violation of his god of craftsmanship.

Therefore, except for some more difficult crafts, they are generally left to apprentices.

And Lu Ban is also loyal and has no secrets.

As a result, the carpentry department, with Lu Ban as the "minister", has almost ten apprentices other than Lu Ban who can act alone.

However, despite the large number of people, we still need to work overtime when facing large-scale orders.

besides.

Luban's carpentry department is also responsible for the production of catapults and ballistae.

Under the improvement of a group of apprentices led by Lu Ban.

The catapult and ballista have been released in the 4S and 5 versions respectively.

Compared with the previous versions of catapults and ballistae, these new catapults and ballistae have been enhanced in terms of quality and range.

Just like the original versions of catapults and ballistas, the range was only a few dozen meters at most.

And thanks to the improvements made by Lu Ban and his apprentices, the range of the catapult has gradually reached nearly 100 meters!

These catapults and ballistae are favored by countless large forces on the market.

But it’s worth mentioning.

For example, the 4S version of the catapult and the 5 version of the crossbow are relatively expensive compared to before.

Able to purchase in bulk.

There are only large forces.

Some medium-sized forces can only buy a few units and they are already exhausted.

As for those with small capabilities, they almost have to empty their pockets to buy just one or two units.

Even so.

But these forces are still flocking to the latest versions of catapults and ballistae.

after all.

In the sky island world, this thing is the foundation of one's life.

Now almost every force will set up several or more watchtowers near their headquarters.

These watchtowers are equipped with the latest versions of catapults and ballistae.

The purpose is to prevent it before it happens.

If an enemy suddenly attacks, keep them at a distance of a hundred meters.

You can use catapults and ballistae to directly block the enemy.

Although it is expensive, it can add security to your own power headquarters!

Even if you pinch your nose, you still have to buy this thing!

In addition to the carpentry department led by Lu Ban.

Tang Yanzai is in charge of the blacksmith shop that specializes in making standard weapons.

Similarly, Jiang Tian also assigned many apprentices to Tang Yan.

These apprentices were all handed over to Tang Yan for deployment.

It's different from Luban's side.

Tang Yan's blacksmith shop receives orders almost every day.

After all, compared to the expensive catapults and ballistas.

Although the standard weapons produced by the Merchant Alliance are also expensive, they are still within the acceptable range.

Relative to the weapons initially built and sold.

Tang Yan's blacksmith shop also underwent technical upgrades.

Regarding the previous purification of iron ore, there were still some impurities.

Now, with the development of technology, it is not only possible to perfectly purify iron ore.

You can even add other metal minerals to it.

Build Metal Gear Solid!

On top of the forging of weapons.

Including Li Cunxiao, Huo Qubing and others will give their opinions.

For example, you want to make weapons sharper and more durable.

Hundred forging process can be used.

That is to say, beat the embryo of the weapon repeatedly, and then keep folding and beating it.

What goes around comes around.

This way.

One can imagine how tough the weapon is.

Like weapons made by other forces.

Why are they not as tough as the Merchant Alliance’s weapons?

That's why.

actually.

It's not that other forces don't know that doing this makes their weapons tougher.

But there are really not enough manpower!

Just think about it.

A better weapon requires repeated hammering.

In other words, several hours, even more than ten hours, are completed by a blacksmith.

After spending so much time, I can indeed make a high-quality weapon.

However, in this case, the blacksmith master will definitely not be able to make a second shot.

If you want to continue forging, you must take a day's rest.

Otherwise, how can this be tolerated?

Most of the current weapons are standard weapons, and the orders are in large quantities.

There are dozens or hundreds of them at every turn.

Some large forces directly order thousands or thousands of pieces!

As for the forces that generally forge weapons, there are only a few master blacksmiths among them.

Even if these master blacksmiths were allowed to work day and night, they still wouldn't be able to make so much!

and.

Among these forces, the master blacksmith is very precious.

To kill two blacksmiths for a batch of orders?

Isn’t this an idiot!

On the other hand, look at Jiang Tian.

There are already more than fifty blacksmith apprentices led by Tang Yan.

The original blacksmith shop was also expanded five times under Jiang Tian's arrangement!

Not only that.

Around the blacksmith shop, several houses were built specifically to provide temporary rest for the people in the blacksmith shop.

These houses are also connected to Frost Goblins and have a comfortable temperature.

Tang Yan also conscientiously implemented Jiang Tian's policy.

He directly divided the people under him into two shifts.

That is to say.

Even if they receive a large order of several thousand weapons, it won't take them long to complete it.

And every blacksmith can get plenty of rest.

besides.

Jiang Tian is even continuing to expand the scale of the blacksmith.

We want to shorten the time to deliver orders in the future.

At present, with the expansion of the area of ​​​​Jiangang Sky Island.

The west and south sides have been redesigned into ports.

At these two ports, two teams, Li Cunxiao and Huo Qubing, were stationed respectively.

Each of their two teams has fifty people, enough to suppress this place.

These ports are specially used for travel.

Therefore, a dozen perfectly configured mobile islands were docked at the two ports.

under reform.

Naturally, these mobile islands are no longer driven by human power.

Instead, the power was replaced by a big iron box.

The iron box is equipped with caterpillar tracks, and on top of the caterpillar tracks is a mutated pig man.

Just beat these mutated pigmen to make them run.

It can provide kinetic energy to the mobile island.

Thereby speeding up the movement of sky islands.
