As time goes by, the trading in the Jingnan Military Market gradually becomes lively. Especially other personnel in Guanzhong are also attracted by the military market and join in the buying and selling of military market commodities, which immediately makes the military market become more and more lively.
Get hot.
Although the military market restricts only registered servicemen to buy and sell in the market, and uses Pingqiang coupons as the only trading currency, the circulation of commodities is not limited to the military market. Various reselling activities around the military market have gradually flourished.
, all the meritorious soldiers can profit by changing hands. With such successful experience, the sergeants gradually let go of their hands and continued to use Pingqiang coupons to exchange for goods in the general market.
A large amount of gold, silver, jewelry and various luxury goods were seized during the Battle of Tuyuhun, but the digestion capacity of the local people in Guanzhong is still relatively limited. Moreover, Li Tai does not really want the folk customs in Guanzhong to change to extravagance and enjoyment, although his yearning for a better life is everything.
It is the common pursuit of people, but today the world has not yet been unified, so it is still not appropriate to overemphasize enjoyment.
The Jinyang nobles of the Northern Qi Dynasty are undoubtedly the group of people with the most purchasing power. Although the Northern Qi Dynasty has greatly strengthened its defense of Xishan operations, making personnel circulation difficult.
But there are always more solutions than difficulties, and there are still people who continue to risk their lives and wander around the Luliang Mountains engaged in smuggling. In addition to being a military center, Suizhou, which Li Tai inspected before, also has another function as a smuggling base.
The main manpower for these smuggling is the subordinate of Jihu Chief Liu Kuzhen. This is the main reason why this guy has become so wealthy in recent years.
It's just that although the profits of smuggling are high, it is not very safe after all. Once discovered by the Northern Qi border guards, both people and goods will be lost. In the past, because of the precedent of Li Tai's family leaving Jinyang quietly, now Northern Qi Jin
The border guards around Yang did not dare to easily make friends with smugglers. Even though they had been corrupted to some extent in recent years, they did not dare to openly smuggle in large quantities.
The market opening in Northern Qi was limited, while the people's livelihood in Nanliang in Jiangdong was poor and their purchasing power was limited. It was also a headache to realize these treasures.
In addition to these internal regimes, the Turks are actually a more suitable trade target among the surrounding forces. As the new grassland overlords, the Turks must have accumulated a huge amount of wealth in the process of their rise. Li Tai used his treasures to bribe and offer wooden poles.
Khan made them stay in the south of Yinshan Mountain to attack and kill them, which also reflects that these upper-class Turks have an urgent need to improve their quality of life.
Previously, because the Khan who controlled the land had not yet returned to the country to take control of the situation, Li Tai did not discuss the issue of trade with him. Now judging from the situation, he should have established a firm foothold in his country. After all, he already has enough power to send troops abroad.
We can discuss related issues.
Not only did Li Tai want to talk to the Turks, Meng Yehu of the Turks had also been asking for an audience frequently in the past few days. However, Li Tai had been busy rewarding the army and had no time to meet him. This time, he introduced him to the imperial city.
See you in.
"The humble envoy of the Turks pays homage to the Prime Minister, Duke of Tang Dynasty!"
Meng Yehu actually knows some Chinese. Although he is not proficient in it, he has no problem with basic communication. That is why he was repeatedly appointed as an envoy to the Western Wei Dynasty. He refused to say it before because he looked down on the Western Wei Dynasty and looked down on the Han people, but he was taught a lesson.
After a while, I became polite.
Li Tai waved his hand to indicate that he could sit down without ceremony. In order to ensure that the information of the dialogue could be accurately conveyed to the other party, he arranged for Shendi Zhi, who had been on an envoy to the Turks, to be present at the table to translate and explain the dialogue.
"In this attack on Tuyuhun, you and other Turkic sergeants have also contributed a lot. I have ordered the Liangzhou side to reward you as appropriate. The friendship between the two countries has been long-standing. If it were not for Qi Jin's fierce rebellion, there would not have been a previous battle. Now we are attacking together.
Tuyuhun further proves that cooperation can benefit both sides."
Li Tai first expressed his gratitude to the Turks for their help in the war, and then said: "After leaving Yinshan, there are many affairs in our country, and we have no time to take care of the personnel in Mobei. After the Khan who controlled the land returned to his army, everything must have gone smoothly, right?
"
"It went well, it went well. Thank you Tang Gong and the Prime Minister for your concern. After the Khan returned home, he summoned the heads of various ministries and told them to kill Qinjin. He taught the minions not to hate the Wei Dynasty but to be respectful..."
Meng Yehu quickly leaned over and stumblingly told the story of how the local Khan returned to the country and took power, and repeatedly expressed his respect for the Western Wei Dynasty.
The first reason why the land-controlling Khan was able to successfully assume power in his country was because Mu Gan Khan had only been in office for a short time and had not yet established absolute prestige in the country. Moreover, Mu Gan had successively sent troops to the Northern Qi Dynasty and the Western Wei Dynasty, both of which failed.
It also made some powerful people within the Turks realize that they were seeking their own destruction. At present, the Turks have not completely lost their respect for the regime in the south.
The second is due to the remaining power of Ili Khan Ashina Tumen. Tumen single-handedly developed the Turks from Rouran slaves to the current grassland overlords. Even though he has been dead for several years, he still has power among the Turkic tribes.
He has a high prestige. As the oldest living disciple of Ashina Tumen, the Khan of Controlling the Land should inherit the throne of Khan.
By the way, today's Kutou is no longer called Kunditou Khan, but has been changed to Wuzun Khan, which means "long-term" in Turkic language. In addition to sounding more auspicious, this name also has a certain
To a certain extent, it shows that he also has some ideas and ambitions of his own.
Li Tai was not surprised by this. Whether it was Wu Zun or controlling the territory, the Turkic Khanate was still an area that was difficult for the Western Wei Dynasty to directly influence and control. As long as the other party remained humble and did not dare to openly be an enemy of the Western Wei Dynasty, Li Tai did not
Don't expect to turn it into an absolute puppet.
After describing the current internal situation of the Turks, Meng Yehu stood up again to pay his respects and said: "Earlier, I was ordered by Qi Jin to enter the country to discuss marriage. Although Qi Jin was arrogant and made Tang Gong furiously attack, this Old Testament Wu
The Khan did not dare to forget that this time he sent troops to help in the battle, so the Khan ordered his humble envoys to escort Yixiji Khan's daughter to present to Duke Tang.
During the war, he first placed the princess in Liangzhou, and then sent her to Chang'an after the war. It was for this reason that she had been invited to see him several times in recent days. Wu Zun Khan ordered his humble envoy to pay homage to Tang Gong.
However, she is worried that a vulgar-looking woman will not be loved by Duke Tang. Princess Hal is the most beautiful woman in the Ashina family, as beautiful as white snow. I hope Duke Tang will appreciate such intentions and give the women of the Ashina family the opportunity to serve.
Glory!"
Li Tai had heard Shi Ning mention this matter, but he didn't pay much attention to it. At this time, he heard Meng Yehu talk about it again. After pondering for a while, he nodded and said with a smile: "Wuzun Khan can abide by the covenant and send troops."
Helping in the battle is enough to express his sincerity, but it is also very gratifying that he comes with a gift. I am not a person who is obsessed with beauty. Since Khan Wuzun gave me a daughter to please me, I should accept it with a smile, but it is disrespectful."
In the exchanges and interactions between grassland forces like the Turks, marriage is indeed a good way to enhance the closeness and tacit understanding between the two parties. However, Mugan Khan's previous attitude was too arrogant and domineering, and his demands were intolerable to Li Tai.
, of course I have to fuck him.
Nowadays, Wu Zun Khan's attitude is what normal communication should be like, and he does not have a tough attitude to ask Li Tai to treat him as a real wife. Naturally, Li Tai does not resist such a request and accepts a Turk
A woman just needs a pair of chopsticks at home, so she doesn't need to care too much about her appearance.
Meng Yehu couldn't help but feel overjoyed when he heard Tang Gong's smile and accepted it, and then he praised the princess who came to get married, which made Li Tai feel a little hopeful for a while.
Because the topic was all about this, Li Tai could not discuss the mutual trading issues between them in depth, so he simply told Shedi Zhi to negotiate with him on related matters after that. Of course, he would still have to send envoys to the Turkic Khan's tent if necessary.
Only then can a complete business plan be finalized.
Although the Turks did not require Li Tai to accept the Ashina girl as his wife, the necessary respect still had to be given. Li Tai did not directly ask Meng Yehu to send the person to his bedroom, but asked the other party to first
Send the princess to Shangyang Palace and choose an auspicious day to include her in the harem.
Next, he stayed in Chang'an for two more days. Seeing that the military market was operating well, he entered the palace to bid farewell to the emperor and returned to Bafu again.
When he returned to Shangyang Palace, Meng Yehu came to invite him again, and Li Tai went back to the house first to inform his wife about the matter. To be honest, he felt a little embarrassed because she had just given birth to his second child.
His son has not even given birth yet, yet he wants to lure a woman into his home. This is the behavior of a scumbag. But in his position, sometimes being a scumbag is a responsibility that cannot be shied away from.
Miaoyin didn't care much about this. Nowadays, she has the mentality of a big lady and is not too emotional about people or things. After listening to what her husband said, she smiled and said: "Turkic women are quite good in Guanzhong."
It’s not common, and I’m also curious about what this Turkic princess, who is as beautiful as snow, looks like.”
With his wife's consent, Li Tai sent officials to the Shangyang Palace where the Turkic princess was housed, and welcomed the princess into the inner palace. However, when the woman was introduced into the inner palace, he could not help but be a little dumbfounded.
This Turkic princess is really charming and charming. She does not have the appearance of an ordinary Turkic person, but is closer to the appearance of a Central Asian Caucasian. Her complexion is fair and delicate, her facial features are exquisite and three-dimensional, and her eyes are large and glowing with green light.
Shi always showed a bit of shyness, which made people feel pity for her. No wonder Meng Yehu boasted that she was the most beautiful woman in the Ashina family. It was indeed unforgettable at first sight.
But the problem is that this princess is only in her early ten years, even younger than when Miaoyin married Li Tai, and she doesn’t understand Chinese at all, making it difficult to communicate. It’s not so much that Li Tai has added a concubine, it’s more that the family
Another beautiful ornament that can walk and move has been added.
