"See the general, my subordinates have something to report!!" A guard shouted outside the tent.

"Come in!

What's the matter! Situ Changfeng beckoned the guards into the tent and asked curiously, at this time, it was almost dark, and he didn't bring scouts in, so he didn't know what was going on.

"General Hui, the Turkic envoy has come to ask for a meeting!" The guards replied respectfully.

"Please!" The corners of Situ Changfeng's mouth rose and said lightly.

After a while, a short Turkic man entered the big tent, and when Situ Changfeng was a large number of him, he was also looking at Situ Changfeng, obviously not expecting the commander of the Tang Dynasty to be so young.

Some time ago, he was squeezed out by the Yehu and made a feint at the east gate, so the two did not face each other.

"The little Turkic Khan, Ashina Ni has seen the generals of the kingdom." Ashina's attitude was very low, and he was surprised to make a Confucian ceremony to Situ Changfeng very formally.

"It turned out to be the little khan of the Ashina family, and the official Yizhou County Shoutu is polite!" The name Ashina Ni seems to have some reflections, Situ Changfeng didn't think much about it, got up and saluted back.

"The name of the county guard is like thunder, and when I see it today, I am really young and promising!" Ashina said sincerely.

"Huh! It's over, little Khan, please sit down, I don't know if little Khan came from afar, what's the matter! Situ Changfeng naturally didn't listen to the words of this seemingly amiable enemy, and he didn't bother to figure out the other party's intentions, so he asked directly.

"The county guard is really fast-talking, and the lower officials are on the orders of the Khan, and they came to ask for peace!" Ashina flashed a trace of tiredness, and got up again and said respectfully.

"Huh! How dare you do this, the nobles are a million army, we can't scratch the boots, and we can't hurt you in the slightest! Situ Changfeng said darkly, and he really guessed correctly.

"If the county guard is willing to truce the war, the lower official on behalf of the Western Turks promised not to invade the Tang Dynasty in the future, and gave a big message." Ashina said seriously.

"Are you serious?" Situ Changfeng asked solemnly.

"We are sincere, if the county guard is not satisfied, you tell us the conditions, and we will discuss." Ashina nodded vigorously.

"Well, this official adds two conditions, if you agree, then Yizhou will never take the initiative to start a war with the Western Turks in the future." Situ Changfeng nodded and said.

"You say! In general, the lower officials can still call the shots. Ashina Ni Yu stood up happily and replied, he didn't expect Situ Changfeng to actually make the decision to agree, originally wanted to be able to agree, if he didn't agree, he would delay it for a while, so that he could retreat the herdsmen, after all, the previous war had suffered heavy losses, and if he continued to fight, he was afraid that most of the tribes would be dragged down.

"The First Turks must not hinder the Tang Dynasty's trade with the Western Regions in the future! In return, the grasslands west of the Gobi will still be grazing by you. Situ Changfeng raised his finger and said.

"This is natural, and Xia Guan promises to do this." Ashina Ni immediately nodded in agreement.

"The second official wants a small city!" Situ Changfeng stretched out another finger and said.

"Small town? Which one? Ashina asked hesitantly.

"The capital of Khotan, the western city! Datang needs to have a stronghold in the Western Regions to facilitate passing merchants! Situ Changfeng said lightly.

"This ...... Truth be told, Duxi is a very important city for us, and it has a lot of income every year! Ashina said hesitantly.

"Little Khan, you don't have to lie to me, Duxi City may have been an important city for you before, but since the Han Dynasty, a large number of jade searches, by the time of the Sui Dynasty, there are very few, and only occasionally can you find a piece.

Of course, it is not for nothing, a certain is open to the mutual market in Illinois, buys a large number of your wool, and sells you salt tea at the same time! And woolen clothes! Situ Changfeng said with a smile.

"Woolen clothes?" Ashina asked puzzled.

"Come as a friend, this outfit is for you little Khan!" Situ Changfeng said as he took out a set of his spare clothes from the tent and handed it over.

"It's made of wool?" Ashina touched his clothes and asked in surprise.

"Of course, it's just that it's very cumbersome to make, and you need to add some other things, so the cost is relatively high, but the warmth effect is very good, and you can spend the night in the snow with a complete set." Situ Changfeng said casually.

Of course, Ashina knew that it was impossible to spend the night in the snow, but the warmth effect really made him excited.

And what Situ Changfeng said was the truth, it was difficult to find a piece of jade in Duxi City now.

Although the small country of more than 10,000 people has always been very obedient, jade and precious stones have always been less important to the Turks.

"Good! I agreed, and I hope the county will keep its word! Ashina Ni is a very decisive person, thought for a moment, and immediately agreed.

"Of course! A certain family is like a thousand gold!

Come! Collect the order! Situ Changfeng got up and said.

"Refreshing! Duxi City now belongs to the Tang Dynasty, including 3,000 people! There will be no opinion on the Khotanese side! Ashina Ni was very satisfied, and immediately assured generously.

"Good! Little Khan is refreshing, in the future, your tribe's trading share will be increased by 30%, and the price will be 10% lower! Situ Changfeng said with the same satisfaction.

"It's a deal!" Ashina Ni raised a palm and said!

"It's a deal!" Situ Changfeng also raised his right hand and struck on Ashina's palm, and the two of them high-fived as an oath.

…………

"Situ boy. We work so hard for a small city? What about the surprise! Hongfu looked at Situ Changfeng dissatisfiedly and took over Duxi City.

"Hey, hey! Tomorrow, I will take you seniors to see the surprise! Situ Changfeng said with a mysterious smile.

He was so confident that he had obtained information from the Vulture Palace, which was only an annex of the Vulture Palace at that time.

According to records, Khotan is rich in jade and gemstones, but in the Han Dynasty, thick burials prevailed, so a large number of Khotan countries were required to make offerings, so that in the Sui Dynasty, it was difficult to find.

Later, in the Song Dynasty, the river in Khotan was diverted, and people found that there was a lot of jade at the bottom of the river.

Originally, Khotan thought that jade was a gift from God, so it appeared in the river, and later after the exploration of the Vulture Palace, it was found that the upstream was actually a mine, and the ore in the river was also washed down from the upstream.

Because the Song Dynasty was compressed by strong enemies, its territory was not large, so it had to try its best to develop itself, and salt tea was developed rapidly during this period.

Vulture Palace, Doctors, Stars, Agriculture, Commerce, and Military, all the books are available, and there are special people who write, supplement, and record.

Situ Changfeng had spent a lot of time looking, especially when he was approaching the Western Regions, so he paid special attention to this aspect of things.

From the very beginning, he calculated that jade was not the most important thing for the Turks, but the nobles of the Central Plains liked the white jade of the Kunlun Mountains the most.
