Compared with velvets, these black scale armors are two protective devices of different natures.

The production of robes not only requires high material requirements, but also requires magic casting to increase mana or the spiritual power of the mysterious god.

There is also a difference between adding money and adding money. The money uses its own mysterious god power to resonate and fusion through magic to maximize the power of the instrument. The money is mostly used to use magic to activate another or several types of unique magic powers possessed by the materials themselves in the applied instrument, so that their power can be fusion, change and enhance.

Although these two methods have their own advantages, it depends more on the caster's own level and material conditions, casting with the Xuanshen Spirit Power is more targeted, which is equivalent to private customization and rarely can be made in batches. However, this method is much more flexible. It is possible to use the same method to make three or five or even 10 or twenty pieces at a time.

The skin scale armor is probably the product made by Luo Zhen using the art of raising the bill.

Jiang Feng weighed the rough and ugly black scale armor and smacked his lips, "Boshan, is this the surprise you have given me for so long?"

"Hmph, so long? How long? Do you still want surprise?" Luo Zhen was angry and poured a large bowl of braised plum juice, looking up and down at Jiang Feng's residence, "Okay, you have learned the braised plum juice from Guandi Temple. Don't go to find someone all day long. That girl Xifeng has a family of her husband."

"Okay, don't think of me as dirty as you. Xifeng's girl is big and has a raised butt, and she looks like a child. Didn't your mother keep stroking her to find a wife for you? I think Xifeng is good." Jiang Feng said with a smile.

Luo Zhen and Jiang Feng are both neighbors on the streets, which are acceptable to small families. The Jiang family's ancestors refine elixirs and medicines, and are also well-known in Guangzhou City. The Luo family has been a Feng Shui master for generations. It was not until Luo Zhen's grandfather's generation that he became a craftsman, and he used wood and iron making as his career.

"Get out! I don't have that hobby!" Luo Zhen and Jiang Feng were used to it casually, and said angrily: "Ten black sand eel scale armors, do you want it? This has already made all my old foundations over the years. Just this black scale armor has used twelve black sand eels. Erlang, do you know, twelve black sand eels, I only bought twelve black sand eels in three years, and all of them were used by you. Almost all the black sand eels that have been spread in Shaobi in the past few years have been bought by our Guangzhou governor's mansion. Even the entire Shouzhou city has not seen a black sand eel in the past few years... "

"Okay, don't pretend in front of me, I don't know you yet?" Jiang Feng said angrily: "No one in the past thought that the black sand eel scales could be used. In recent years, the mansion spent a lot of money to buy black sand eels and still needed the blood of Miss Ning and medicine for Miss Ning and medicine? Didn't you happen to find that the black sand eel scales have some effect in this aspect? Didn't this thing be thrown away like ordinary fish scales? It seems that the black sand eel was just spent on how much money you bought to make this black sand eel scale for me. This favor is too great."

Luo Zhen was so helpless that he was choked by Jiang Feng's words that he rolled his eyes. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, even if this black sand eel scale is nothing, I spent a lot of other ingredients for the maker's black sand eel scale. Just soaking the black sand eel scale, I used five kilograms of Xichuan Baoning Xian Vinegar. Do you know how much Xichuan Baoning Xian Vinegar cost per kilogram? Also, what material is the woven string of the woven scale, do you know? I tell you, this is a wool intestine thread, this is not an ordinary wool intestine thread, but a red duck intestine thread... Also, you know how much Xuan Shen adds it. In order to improve the stiffness, I refined the black copper ingot from the official office of the material to soak it. For this matter, I lost at least ten kilograms, all for this thing,..."

Luo Zhen kept telling him how he tried hard, how he tried hard, how he forgot to eat and sleep, and finally made these ten black sand eel scale armors. Jiang Feng was still particularly moved.

He just told him that he had just taken over and was short of money from weapons and armor to money. Luo Zhen could spend all his savings in such a short time to make ten black sand eel scale armors for himself. It can be said that he did his best.

But he also knew very well that he was a kind of homesick friend. As soon as he talked about his specialty, he couldn't stop talking. If he didn't stop the car quickly, he would be speechless for the last hour.

"Boshan, have you tried this armor? How about it?" Jiang Feng had to interrupt his partner's show-off and said patiently.

"Hey, you're not at ease with what I made?" Luo Zhen slapped his chest.

Seeing Jiang Feng's gaze with a bit of teasing, Luo Zhen blew up again, "But Erlang, you also know that the material is limited. The black sand eel is famous for its medicinal effect. The eel scales are not so precious. It can only be said to be just used. Compared with the other specialty of the Yunzhu, the scales of another specialty of Shaobi, are far away from the scales of Yunzhu. In addition, I don't have any other auxiliary ingredients to process and polish, so I can only do this. But you are in the back battalion of the Yizhou Army. These ten black sand eel scales are definitely useless. I have to tell you, you have to use them for me, not to mention everyone, at least you have to give them the people who can help you. Not to mention other things, at least they are light and flexible. It cannot be compared with genuine armors such as Mingguang Armor. However, ordinary sword assassination and crossbow shooting can still save your life as long as you are not lucky and are directly hit on the back."

Armor has always been an important basis for identifying the combat effectiveness of an army. Jiang Feng knew very well that in this era, whether there was a complete set of armor was basically the basis for determining whether this army was an elite of the Orchid Army or a miscellaneous brand like the State Army. It is very simple to say that the cost of armor was too high, and many ordinary-high soldiers were difficult to truly equipped with armor.

Like a set of the most basic set of ordinary cowhide mixed reinforced armor, the cost of the material requires more than 12 taels of silver in the official warehouse. If labor is added, it is at least more than 15 taels of silver in the official warehouse. A set of Mingguang armor for the generals is at least more than 100 taels of silver in the official warehouse, while the higher-grade Guangyao armor is more than 200 taels of silver in the official warehouse. The black hammer armor that is smelted from the Western Regions or the Bohai Sea is almost worthless. There are only more than ten pieces in the entire Guangzhou Ya Army, which were secretly purchased from Bianliang, Luoyang or Chang'an. The price is said to be around 500 taels. One armor is equivalent to the value of leather armor required by thirty or forty ordinary soldiers.

Taking the Guangzhou Army as an example, the proportion of genuine armor is only half, and the remaining half can only be equipped with basic chest protection and crotch protection. Such as shoulder guards, arm guards, and leg guards can only be given up. However, even this small half requires 80,000 taels of government treasury silver expenses, which is not considered the cost of daily maintenance and repair. Although Guangzhou is not too poor, it is very difficult to maintain such an army by relying solely on the five counties. This is also the main reason why Xu always hopes to expand his territory and strengthen his own strength.
