Chapter 214: 212. Monthly Ticket for Sun Quan to Visit the Lantern Festival)(2/2)
After listening to the words of the people around him, Sun Quan sighed and saw the old man guarding the stall. Although he was thin and small, his movements were not slow at all, so he handed over the money and asked, "Old man, what are the rules?"

Mr. Lang, I’m afraid you often practice archery, right?”
"Oh? How can you see it?" Sun Quan immediately became interested.
"Feeling." Pu Yuan didn't say much, and then asked, "Two stone bows, can you?"
Sun Quan thought for a moment and asked, "How many stones is the maximum cost?"
"There are three-stone or even higher ones in Zhuangzi, but this is a game place..." Pu Yuan smiled, "Can I just have a two-stone bow?"
"In that case, I will trouble my father-in-law." Sun Quan smiled.
As soon as he took the bow from Pu Yuan, Sun Quan could clearly feel that the bow was well made. After receiving ten more arrows, he was surprised again.
This bow and arrow must have a longer range than the ordinary two-stone bow. He can feel the weight of it.
After trying the bow string for a while, Sun Quan fell in love with it.
Seeing a target not far away, he asked, "Is there a farther target?"
Pu Yuan laughed, and then asked someone to move the distance of the target. He wanted to see the performance of the gentleman today.
Today’s third chapter, today’s 8,000 words.
Another note: In the Eastern Han Dynasty, one pound was less than half a pound in later generations. One stone at this time was equivalent to 120 pounds, which was probably less than 60 pounds in later generations. In the Tang Dynasty, an ordinary stone was close to 130 pounds.
