Chapter 70 (1/2)

”This one!” Ralph said, ”it's not that there are no other commodities. It depends on whether Mr. chebman dares to take it.”

”And other good things?” He clapped his chest and said, ”what do I dare not ask for? Come out and have a look. ”

”This one!” Ralph magically pulled out a studded leather armor.

Only at a glance, chebbman was attracted. Although he has been wandering around all these years, his only achievement is that he has learned a lot and developed a pair of good eyesight. At a glance, he can see its extraordinary features. It is not only the fine workmanship and gorgeous appearance, but also its unique structure, which is a little uncertain: ”double layer structure? Can I have a look? ”

”Mr. chebman has a good eye. It seems that he has not found the wrong person this time.” Ralph thumbs up and praises.

”Of course, there is no reason why the goods are not shown to the buyer? Mr. chebman can not only see it, but also try it. The training ground behind him is ready. He has all kinds of bows, crossbows, swords and swords. I suggest that Mr. chebman should use his own weapons, so as to have a correct estimate of our goods. ”

Different from ordinary salesmen, Ralph just threw the leather armor out all the time. He didn't praise his products. He relied on the other party's own view. There was only one reason for this, that is, he had absolute confidence in his own goods.

”Sure enough, it's a double-layer structure. No, it's three-tier. Well, it's not right. There's another layer inside. Five layers, it's a five-layer structure. You should make a leather armor in the way of five-layer structure. What's more, how much manpower and material resources have you invested in a leather armor? How much labor do you have? How crazy! Don't blame me for saying that in front of me, if the price is too unreasonable, I can't help it. After all, it's a leather armor. Even if it's more powerful, can it be more powerful than iron armor? ”

At the end of the day, chebbman's eyes were straight and he murmured the word madness.

As the largest number of armor in Ashan land, leather armour relies on its own simple workmanship and low price. Most people make it by themselves, regardless of rabbit skin, wolf skin, sheep skin and cattle hide. As long as the leather is tanned and sewed together, it will be regarded as a leather armor.

Of course, this kind of artifact with rough workmanship and low defensive power can not be used by itself at best. If it is sold to merchants, the selling price can not keep up with the price of materials used.

Although the military leather armour is better, it is limited. Even the inlaid leather armor is very few. It takes a lot of time and effort to improve the defense. If the cost is too high, the meaning of leather armor will be lost. You can replace it with a stronger armor.

Therefore, the current leather armour is mostly made of large sections of raw materials. At most, the materials used are exquisite, the style is exquisite and the workmanship is exquisite.

It's not that smart people don't think of the double-layer structure or even the multi-layer structure of leather armour. It only costs a lot of manpower and material resources to make such a leather armor, not to mention the scale armor, but its weight is much higher, which is comparable to that of the plate armor, but its defense is not as good as expected. In addition, it is bound to be unsuitable.

Chebbman weighed it for a moment. The weight of this leather armour with five layers is indeed heavier than that of ordinary leather armour, but it is relatively limited. It can't even double, that is, it looks like half of the armor, because his five layers are not all stacked up by leather.

There are only two layers of real leather, even less than two layers. The outer layer is a layer of hemp, silk and silk fabric, which is very sparse. It is not so much a textile fabric as a stitch sewn on the leather. There is another layer of this kind of thing inside. The two layers of leather are tightly sewn together, and the innermost layer is this kind of peculiar textile fabric, multi-layer structure leather armor It's like a mixture.

At first, chebbman didn't care about this kind of strange fabric. Until he took out his pocket dagger to test the armor, he found that the three layers of fabric were the core of the leather armor. His sharp dagger didn't cut the thin thread which was not much thicker than the hair. He could not help but increase his strength and use 30% of his strength to make this small and insignificant thing Cut off.

The whole pair of leather armor is made up of these small things, and it is still three layers in succession. How strong is it for arrow support and chopping protection?

”What is this?” Chubbman blurted out, ”is this for sale?”

”Trade secrets.” Ralph was still smiling. ”This is not for sale. We only sell leather armor.”

”I made a mistake.” Chebbman also laughed, if he had such a good thing, he would never sell it easily.

Chebbman can't wait to start the actual combat test, crossbow, sword, hammer and halberd All 18 weapons are on.

Similar to chebman's prediction, this leather armor has an amazing defense against archery, chopping and stabbing. Even a three twisted hard bow can't penetrate completely at a short distance, which is comparable to plate armour in this respect.

However, in the face of heavy weapons such as war hammer and mace, we are a little short of our means. Let alone plate armour, we are not as good as those of pierced armour and scale armour.Another defect is fear of fire. It is very normal to have this defect. This is a common disease of leather armour. However, its effect in cold protection can offset this point.

”Good things are good things, just in terms of price.” Chebbman hit his mouth for a while, and he began to evaluate this kind of armor in his heart. It was certain that it was higher than ordinary leather armor, and even higher than ordinary tie armor. The performance of the armor was there.

In addition to its advantages in blunt defense, the armour has been left behind for eight blocks, and its weight is only half of that. Even archers can wear it as fast as they can. The Andes mountain people's sentry, which made Manyu army's scouts terrified a while ago, should be wearing this kind of armor.
