Chapter 869

The craftsmanship of this stove certainly amazed them. But they hadn't been very concerned about it before, as it was just something of little use.

Now that they heard the price, they were truly startled.

Because pig iron had another use, and that was manufacturing weapons!

Great Qin's pig iron had already dropped to such a low price. Didn't that mean Great Qin's weapons would also be much cheaper than Great Tang's?

For example.

In Great Tang, an iron sword sold for twenty taels of silver. Only generals were qualified to carry iron swords.

But in Great Qin, I'm afraid an iron sword wouldn't even cost one tael of silver.

With such a huge gap, once a war started, Great Qin could bury Great Tang with ironware!

Li Er was truly panicked.

"Your Majesty, how could the price of Great Qin's pig iron be so low? This stove alone must have used at least thirty or forty jin of pig iron."

Qin Mu laughed.

"Great Qin's pig iron is just that cheap."

This almost choked Li Er to death.

Smelting pig iron consumes an extreme amount of charcoal; it couldn't possibly be this cheap!

Li Er planned to go to the street to see what prices things in the blacksmith shops were actually selling for.
