"We'll talk about brothers later. Anyway, life is long. Now let's talk about this bow."
Yang Qi was a thoughtful person, so he changed the topic when he saw Chen Mo was in a dilemma.
Speaking of bows and looking at the broken poplar tree, Chen Mo remembered four words.
shoot with great precision!
This idiom refers to the general of Chu State adopting You Ji in the Spring and Autumn Period.
He is good at archery and can hit the leaves of a willow tree a hundred paces away.
Since then, it has been used to describe the skill of marksmanship or archery.
Although Yang Qi didn't shoot the leaves, the distance was farther. Not only did he hit the tree, he also broke the poplar tree.
His archery skills are no less superb than those of Yang Youji.
Thinking of this, a poem came to Chen Mo's mind.
The dark grass in the forest is frightened by the wind, and the general draws his bow at night.
I look for white feathers in plain sight, but they disappear into the stone edges.
This frontier fortress poem tells the story of Li Guang hunting a tiger.
The original text is: "When I went out hunting, I saw a stone in the grass. I thought it was a tiger and shot it. The stone did not have an arrowhead (arrow). I saw it as a stone."
Translated into vernacular, it is said that late one night, the mountain forest was dark, suddenly a strong wind blew, the grass brushed and undulated, and in a trance, a white tiger pounced.
At this time, Li Guang was galloping past the forest. With quick eyes and quick hands, he drew his bow and shot out an arrow.
Early the next morning, Li Guang remembered what happened in the forest last night and followed the original route to the scene. He couldn't help but be shocked.
In the bright morning light, it was clear that what he shot was not a tiger, but a huge rock.
What was extremely terrifying was that the white-feathered arrow actually penetrated deeply into the stone edge.
They are not stone holes, stone cracks, or stone surfaces, but narrow, thin and sharp stone edges.
In this way, we can see how strong Li Guang's arm strength is and how high his martial arts skills are.
"My brother is ridiculous. Although I don't know who General Li Guang is, I don't know who he is."
He said this with modesty, but Yang Qi couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.
To receive such praise from Chen Mo was worthy of the knife he just received.
Thinking of this, Yang Qi felt that the wound no longer hurt.
"Brother, there's something I won't complain about."
"Brother, please speak." Chen Mo gestured to sit down and talk.
"Where did you learn this Kung Fu?" Yang Qi was really curious.
"In the book."
Chen Mo is still doing the same thing, pushing everything from books.
"Can you please tell me, what kind of book is it?"
Forehead……
Chen Mo was in a dilemma when he encountered someone who wanted to get to the bottom of it.
Seeing this, Yang Qi smiled and waved his hand.
"I was rude, let's talk about another thing. My brother is so skilled, can he be a missionary?"
"Who should I teach?" Chen Mo couldn't help but refute his face.
"Me and the group of subordinates." Yang Qi sincerely invited, "I don't dare to be greedy. I just need to teach you the close grappling skills just now."
"Okay, when the supplies come back, I will draw this set of kung fu and hand it over to Brother Yang."
"happy."
Yang Qi clapped his hands excitedly, and then took off a token from his waist.
"This thing is unique to the commander of the city defense army. I know I don't like it, but if you have this thing with you, you can save a lot of trouble."
"Thank you, Brother Yang." Chen Mo quickly took it.
As Yang Qi said, the status of the coach is not very high, but he represents the military. From this perspective, the token cannot be bought with a lot of money.
"Brother, can you give me this bow?"
Yang Qi really likes the iron-backed bow. Not only is it powerful, but its shape and workmanship are also fantastic.
What general doesn't want a handy weapon?
However, Chen Mo had other uses for this bow, so he could only refuse it in embarrassment.
"Brother Yang, to be honest, this bow is going to be taken to the border town."
"Gift giving?"
Yang Qi frowned and changed his tone.
"That's right. You take such a big risk to transport supplies, so you must manage all aspects of the relationship well. This is indeed an excellent gift."
"Giving gifts is only second." Chen Mo explained, "Brother Yang, have you ever thought about what it would be like if our army were equipped with such bows? I heard that Hu Xia is a nomad and is best at riding.
Shoot."
hiss……
Yang Qi took a breath. He really didn't expect Chen Mo's appetite to be so big.
Although I didn't say it thoroughly, the meaning behind the words was to do business.
Moreover, it is a weapons business with the military.
This courage is too much.
However, it has to be said that if this kind of bow can be popularized, then the Hu Xia cavalry archery, which the Chu army has always been afraid of, will not be a concern.
Even, the positions will be directly swapped.
After all, the most troublesome problem for the Chu army has always been the inability to forge excellent bows and arrows.
Thinking of this, Yang Qi's blood boiled.
"Brother, what is this kind of bow called?"
"Iron-backed bow." Chen Mo said bluntly, "All the materials are carefully selected and it is difficult to make."
"What a good name." After praising it, Yang Qi frowned again, "Since it is difficult to create, how can we promote it to the entire army?"
"That's why I'm going to the border town with this thing. Brother Yang should understand, right?"
"Got it."
After thinking for a moment, Yang Qi understood instantly.
"What you want is not just business, but cooperation with the military. With the support of the military, everything will be much simpler."
"That's right, only in this way can the business last long. And only in this way can we not be afraid of being missed by interested people."
Chen Mo's idea was simple. Only by giving up part of the profits to the military could we firmly tie each other to the same boat.
And with the military joining the team, no matter who wants to make a wrong idea, they have to think carefully.
At the same time, many prohibited materials can be obtained easily.
Many of them can be used to expand other businesses.
From this point of view alone, even if the military makes no money, Chen Mo will be the biggest winner in the end.
That's how it is in doing business. It's not enough to just have the brains, you also need to have connections and a backer.
Especially in the initial stage, you must know the trade-offs.
And the more profitable the business, the more you have to give out. The more you eat, the worse the consequences are often.
The most important thing is that Chen Mo has a strong sense of family and country. This kind of thing related to military and national plans must be used to enhance the strength of the army.
"Brother, only now do I understand what it means to listen to what you have to say is better than ten years of reading. Compared with your personal vision, I am like a frog in the well. Your future is absolutely limitless."
"Brother Yang, aren't you afraid that I will be proud of you when you praise me so much?" Chen Mo joked, "Besides, even if we can reach cooperation with the military, I will not directly intervene in this matter, but will facilitate Brother Yang to take full authority.
Responsible."
"I?"
Yang Qi was really shocked and moved by Chen Mo.
"That's right, it's Brother Yang." Chen Mo said sincerely, "Leave professional matters to professionals. I'm not a member of the military, and I don't know how to march and fight. It's okay to tinker with things, but I can't go up there.
Planting on the countertop.”
"If you can't climb it, who else in the world can climb it?" Yang Qi sighed.
"I'm just an evangelist, and my job is to teach." Chen Mo further expressed his attitude, "So Brother Yang can't ask for this bow, because there will be many in the future. If the military needs other weapons, they will be available at that time.
All satisfied. But there is a condition. I only recognize Brother Yang and no one else."
"Brother, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness." Yang Qi's voice trembled with excitement, "The days are long and I won't let you down."
"In that case, let's start drinking." After saying that, Chen Mo quickly asked, "Brother Yang is injured, can he still drink?"
"It's just a broken layer of skin. Why can't I drink it? By the way, there is something happening. I want to ask you why?"
After Yang Qi finished speaking, he urged Qin Xianglian to drink the wine quickly.
