Chapter 232

"Okay!" Li Chun suddenly screamed strangely.

He suddenly turned around, stared at Wei Renshi with a burning look, licked his tongue, hooked his throat, swallowed it, and said, "Brother Renshi... Do Brother Renshi know the cost and output of this kind of steel?..."

Li Chun licked his tongue again, paused, looked down at the horizontal knife in his hand, suppressed his excitement, and continued: "Hurry, Brother Renshi, ask!"

"Don't be busy, let me take a look first!" Wei Renshi came over.

"Brother Renshi, look!" Li Chun turned around and snatched the short knife from his servant's hand, and handed the short knife and the horizontal knife to Wei Renshi together.

Wei Renshi took the short blade, and everyone else around him surrounded him.

I saw a small gap breaking out on Li Chun's short knife and the blade of the horizontal knife, but the blade was not damaged at all.

However, the gap on the edge of the horizontal knife was slightly larger than the gap on the edge of Li Chun's short knife.

The former is the size of a sesame seed, while the latter has the second one.

"Prince Chun's short blade is really a good knife!" Wei Renshi smiled and said, "This horizontal knife is still a bit inferior to that."

When the old blacksmith heard this, he hurriedly said, "The old man's craftsmanship is still very good! But this horizontal knife is just thinking about trying new steel to see if it goes smoothly, so he just hit it a few roughly and it looks like a horizontal knife. It's not really true! The old man fights well, and his craftsmanship is no worse than the craftsman who makes short swords for the prince! I know who hits this short sword, so he is still my junior brother!"

Wei Renshi grinned and asked again: "See how about this new steel judging from the process of making weapons?"

"Okay!" The old blacksmith immediately replied, "That's great! Although the old man is not a specialist in iron and steel making, if he wants to make good weapons, he will not be able to recognize good steel. This steel is good, it is fast to come out, and the output is high, and it is very easy to adjust the soft and hard."

Wei Ren looked at Li Chun with a real smile.

"My short blade is the best steel cake for me. I hired the best blacksmith and built it for half a year!" Li Chun said with a solemn expression: "Where is this horizontal knife? I'm afraid it's only been a few days since the steel is released to the point of being made into a weapon?"

The old blacksmith nodded and said, "It only takes three days from the time it was released to the old man's shape."

Li Chun's eyes were shining, but he asked in a deep voice: "Master, you guess how much money does this weapon cost from making steel to making it into a weapon?"

The old blacksmith thought about it carefully and said, "This... the old man doesn't know, and he dares not talk nonsense. However, the old man felt that even if he was taller, it would not be much higher than ordinary weapons. The main reason is that there are fewer stoves here. If it becomes a climate, it will probably be as good as the current ones that can be made."

"Alright?" Li Chun was shocked again and his eyes turned to the horizontal knife: "Brother Renshi, come on."

Li Chun pulled Wei Renshi away from everyone, went aside, lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Renshi, are I planning to reactivate the Sixteen Guards?"

Wei Renshi smiled and said, "Prince Chun's guess is reasonable."

Li Chun immediately understood and said, "I heard that Brother Renshi is practicing the soldiers of the Sixteen Guards. This method of smelting iron and steelmaking is also done. I think it will be used for the Sixteen Guards first?"

"What do Prince Chun wants to do these things?" Wei Renshi smiled and said, "As sooner or later, I will hand them over to Prince Chun. There is no need to be so anxious now."

Li Chun shook his head: "I didn't mean to inquire. I just thought that if I really wanted to re-activate the Sixteen Guards, I had to arrange some people inside earlier, so as not to be like the Shen Ce Army..."

In the original history, Li Shi favored eunuchs, which led to the eunuchs who completely controlled the Shence Army and mastered the Shence Army that the Tang court relied most for survival, so he also controlled the lifeline of the Tang court.

Although Li Song hated eunuchs and wanted to destroy eunuchs, he was not good at his health. Those who had high hopes were eager to succeed, and after the failure, he could not suppress the eunuchs' power.

The eunuch party took the opportunity to support Li Chun ascend. Since then, the Shence Army has been controlled by the eunuchs. Li Chun is powerless and has no other army that can balance the Shence Army, so he can only continue to control the Shence Army by eunuchs.

Where Li Chun ascended the throne, he might not have favored eunuchs, but had to rely on them.

Hearing Li Chun telling him so bluntly, Wei Renshi also understood Li Chun's meaning, and immediately said: "Don't worry, Prince Chun, since Your Majesty and the Crown Prince are willing to re-activate the Sixteen Guards, that is, the intention of letting the Sixteen Guards check and balance the Shence Army. If Prince Chun wants to install his own people, he should start with some small officials at the moment. When he takes the treasure in his future, he will be promoted."

When Li Chun heard Wei Renshi's words, his eyes showed a sense of relief.

His words were not just asking questions, but also implying Wei Renshi, his desire to win over Wei Renshi.

Wei Renshi naturally heard what he meant, so he answered his question and secretly expressed his intention to be one with him in the way he hoped.

After two of them expressed their feelings, Wei Renshi became the one who assisted Li Chun since then. When Li Chun ascended the throne in the future, Wei Renshi became Li Chun's loyal minister.

Wei Ren said sincerely that it was a thigh that he had reported.

"What Brother Renshi said coincides with me." Li Chun nodded and said, "I thought, start from the 800 people. Cultivate some people for later use."

"It's also a way." Wei Renshi said: "After these 300 and 800 people are trained, they will definitely be assigned to the Sixteen Guards to train other Sixteen Guards. If they are united with Prince Chun, then it will be not just one person, but a team. I have a better way here, but I have some hardships. Should Prince Chun listen?"

"Oh?" Li Chun immediately asked, "What method?"

"Prince Chun said he wanted to train his abilities and enter the army to experience it. He also heard that my military training methods were excellent, so he wanted to participate in training and experience it personally." Wei Renshi smiled and said, "If Prince Chun can let go of his identity, eat and live with those 1,100 people, participate in training together, and form a companionship, then they will definitely be devoted to Prince Chun's use. Even if they separate and go to various places in the Sixteen Guards to train soldiers, they will still be Prince Chun's people. The people they trained are naturally the people of Prince Chun."
