Chapter 447 - 424: The Pros and Cons of Marrying into a Family with Close Ties to Royalty - Part 2
Chongshan Town definitely needs more than a small amount.
With 150,000 military households, even if only a small part needs to replace farm tools, it’s not a trivial amount.
Moreover, Chongshan Town also needs to manufacture armaments.
Yang Zhenshan does not give the iron mines to the Governor’s Office because Chongshan Town currently needs iron mines everywhere to create armaments.
"Mr. Ning need not worry, even though there are no iron ores, the General Mansion possesses many old weapons, left behind by Prince Qing’s rebellion and Wuliang’s invasion, which caused many damaged armaments. Some of these can be allocated to the Governor’s Office," Yang Zhenshan said with a smile.
"Marquis, are you mocking me!" Ning Qinghe looked at Yang Zhenshan somewhat displeased.
Damaged armaments are even better than iron ore, as they only need simple hammering to be turned into weapons and farm tools, and their quality is very high.
Yang Zhenshan chuckled, "How could I? I also have a favor to ask of Mr. Ning!"
Ning Qinghe did not hold a grudge, and asked, "What is it?"
"I would like to ask Mr. Ning to arrange for a group of blacksmiths for the General Mansion! You should also know that the General Mansion is forging a large amount of armaments right now, but the blacksmiths at the General Mansion are far from enough, and we urgently need more."
The General Mansion has some blacksmiths, and most of the armaments of Camp are made by its own blacksmiths, but the demand for armaments in Chongshan Town is just too great now.
