Alas~, we can’t stay in the Northland any longer.

Liu Cang felt upset.

It is said that Liu Cang finally survived that day and finally completed the 'feat' of ten points of physical growth. As a result, Huangfu Song served him another pot of tiger meat.

Eat! You must eat even if you eat, and you must eat even if you don't want to eat. Huangfu Song gave the order to die.

But this thing is so wasteful, Liu Cang said that he can no longer practice it at all.

When manpower is limited, it is not a perpetual motion machine after all. The situation where one night's rest can make one's body stronger has never happened. The result of completing ten points of physical growth in one day was that Liu Cang was moaning in bed for three days.

A whole tiger leg gave Liu Cang two opportunities for physical growth. From this, it can be seen that the first time he takes a certain food, the effect is better, because the tiger meat he ate earlier is better than this tiger leg.

Too much less.

The upper limit of physical fitness has been increased by two points, but the actual physical fitness cannot be increased. Even turning over will cause cramps. In the end, I can only watch the improvement expire.

Huangfu Song left Beidi and returned to Luoyang the next day. After that, Huangfu Heng still entertained Liu Cang.

As a result, Huangfu Heng didn't know what kind of madness he had. He changed his previous image and came to Liu Cang in a polite manner all day long, either talking about calligraphy and painting, or discussing calligraphy and classics.

After a few days, it was almost time to talk about nine chapters of arithmetic. Liu Cang was so annoyed that he finally asked to go home with Huangfu Heng full of regret.

It took Huangfu Heng almost less than half an hour to prepare a bicycle frame gift for Liu Cang. He took Liu Cang's hand and emphasized several times that the outside world was dangerous and he must stop traveling long distances and wait for him at home.

Visit.

A two-wheeled carriage, with two strong draft horses, follows the running horse next to the carriage. The war horses gallop away from time to time, but eventually they will return to the carriage.

This carriage was prepared by Huangfu Heng to facilitate Cai Yong's travel, and was carried back by Liu Cang. The war horse was a gift from Huangfu Heng to Liu Cang.

Alongside the carriage were the packhorses that Liu Cang had ridden earlier, including the golden eagle whose roof had made the horses pulling the cart uneasy for a long time. Liu Cang drove into Jizhou via the official road and embarked on the road back to Zhuojun.

The war horse Huangfu Heng prepared for Liu Cang was a young colt, with a yellow-brown body and no distinctive appearance, but it was still a good horse.

This war horse became Liu Cang's spiritual beast and was named "Neighing Wind". It was the only one among the four horses that was not afraid of the golden eagle "Jin Zi".

In addition to the war horses, there were many other things on the carriage, including a pile of plain silk prepared for Cai Yong, a heavy halberd with a long crescent on one side, some processed leather, two lumps of meteorite iron weighing more than a hundred kilograms, and

At first, Liu Cang was stunned by the pile of gold nuggets.

Including an eight-sided Han sword made of fine steel that was forged at Liu Cang's waist, it was Liu Cang's reward after returning home with a full load.

Well, there was another volume thrown aside by Liu Cang. It was said to be some kind of pre-Qin halberd technique - Euphorbia Technique. It was quite a sense of déjà vu. When Liu Cang saw the name, he threw it to the dust.

..

To say that choosing a war horse for Liu Cang, Huangfu Heng, was a lot of work, but the weapons and armor were somewhat manageable.

As a family of generals, it is basically impossible for the Huangfu family not to engage in some arms business.

Nowadays, there is also an examination agency in the local area. Weapons and armor are probably the least rare things of the Huangfu family. The reason why they did not get Liu Cang some rare goods in this regard is because high-quality weapons in this world have a lot to pay attention to.

There's nothing much to say about the armor. Liu Cang is in the age when his body is growing. If you get him some armor, it may not fit him after the Chinese New Year.

Huangfu Heng, the military's standard tube armor, couldn't get rid of it, so he simply prepared leather meteorites for Liu Cang, including a pile of gold nuggets.

Yes, gold, real gold. It is said that it was picked up during the battle with the Qiang people. The pile of gold probably weighed a hundred catties, and it was said that Liu Cang would use it to smelt metal cables when making armor in the future.

Ordinary weapons in this world are not much different from historical records, but there are also craftsmen who have been forging them for generations, and some people who have the conditions will ask them to make 'personal customization'.

These guys actually use alloys to forge weapons and armor.

Yes, it is indeed an alloy. They usually have some technologies and formulas passed down from their ancestors since ancient times, and can configure and smelt some alloys.

Liu Cang can still understand this aspect to a certain extent. To sum it up simply, he just catches whatever he catches and melts it, and randomly refines it to produce some unexpected products.

Huangfu Heng prepared the more important and expensive meteorite iron for Liu Cang, and asked him to play with the iron halberd first, and then make a 'personal customization' after his body grew.

Weapons are custom-made, and the armor pieces can be forged with alloy by craftsmen. As for the weaving of the armor, the mother-in-law at home can learn it.

Anyway, it would take a few more years for Liu Cang to make armor. Although it was not mandatory for women to make armor in this era, some girls from wealthy families could basically learn it. I think Cai Yan would also let her practice when she reached a certain age.

.

You know, in this era, Han girls are not just good at embroidery.

Among these items, the most expensive is undoubtedly meteorite. Although gold is considered a high-quality currency in this era, its value is not as exaggerated in future generations.

To describe it simply, one hundred kilograms of gold is roughly equivalent to one hundred kilograms of five baht, let alone one gold and ten thousand yuan. I can't tell whether one gold is a unit of volume or a unit of weight.

The conversion between gold and money is actually very simple, they are the same weight.

Five baht coins are named after their weight. One coin is called one coin. One coin weighs five baht. One baht is roughly equivalent to three or four grams. Based on the maximum four grams, 500 grams of gold is roughly equivalent to about 120 coins. 120 coins can probably

Buy more than half a stone (dendrobium) of corn.

500 grams of gold gives you one stone of corn. It’s not that the price is outrageous, but this is probably the value of gold in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

So gold was the high-end currency of the Eastern Han Dynasty, but its value was not as high as expected. People usually used it to make alloys to make some utensils, iron hoofs, weapons, including the threads for sewing armor. It was also often used.

Some craftsmen even waste gold because they want to try to smelt stronger alloys.

Gold is easier to store than five-baht coins, and some wealthy families usually store some.

As for the nugget gold that Huangfu Song 'picked up' on the grassland, he probably didn't even bother to melt it, and threw it directly into the northern prefect's mansion.

Huangfu Heng loaded Liu Cang with a pile of gold. It seemed exaggerated, but in fact, the price today is far lower than the priceless meteorite iron.

Driving along the official road and occasionally passing through checkpoints, Liu Cang's 'identity card' was replaced with a new one. The original message was replaced by a Northland talisman. He did not consign a large amount of goods, and the customs duties were waived. He was enjoying a privilege.

treatment.

It was almost half a month's journey, and he had to go to and from the city, and stay in hotels, with a Han sword on his waist, war horses accompanying him, and flying eagles and dogs. Even if he stayed in a hut in the wilderness with idle people scattered around, no one dared to think of him.

Half a month later, he finally returned to Zhuoxian and returned the rented packhorse. He no longer even thought about showing off to Zhang Fei, and Liu Cang suddenly felt eager to return home.

Suddenly, after more than ten years in this world, it seemed that he finally had a family waiting for him to return home.
Chapter completed!
