Tang Jian stayed in Jiacheng for three days and then left.

A hundred packs of tea were left behind, and they were directly given to the fine seal Bulai as a gift. And Xifeng Bulai returned him a thousand party horses as a gift, and at the same time handed over his son and daughter to Tang Jian and asked him to take them back to Chang'an.

Xifeng didn't get his father's consent, so he decided the matter on his own initiative, and he didn't even choose a sister to go to Chang'an, but chose his own daughter. In this regard, he is also a little cautious, it is better to be an uncle than a father-in-law. In order to show his sincerity, he did not send his younger brother to Chang'an, but sent his son directly.

Once went to Chang'an to do the fine seal of the proton, in fact, it is very clear that to have the opportunity to go to Chang'an for ten or eight years is definitely good for his son, can greatly broaden his horizons, learn a lot of useful things, if his son returns to China in the future, he will inherit the position in the future, and the Central Plains will be more assured.

Therefore, it was his eldest son, an eighteen-year-old young man, who handed over the fine seal to Tang Jian.

Before leaving, Xi Feng Weiming asked his father with some puzzlement, "For such a big matter, why didn't you report it to your grandfather first, and besides, is it really the best choice to belong to the Qin State?" ”

Xifeng Bulai tied the saddle for his eldest son in front of the city gate, and handed over a bag of gold and silver to his son, "When you arrive in Chang'an, you will find that the world is so big, and you will know how powerful the Han people are." The Han people have a saying that they are arrogant, and there is an idiom called sitting in the well and watching the sky. Nowadays, many people in our tribe have only stayed in this small place all their lives, they don't know how the outside world is, let alone the strength of the Han people, they only see the weakness and chaos of Helong after the Sui Rebellion, but they can't see that the Central Plains has been reunified, a new son of heaven far beyond the two emperors of the Sui Dynasty is ruling the world, look at Goguryeo, look at the fate of the Eastern Turks, Tang Jian is right, we are not their opponents, and they are not opponents together. ”

"Is the Qin State really so strong?"

Xi Feng patted his son on the shoulder, "Yes, it's very strong, our party has eight major tribes, and the strongest Tuoba Department is no more than 10,000 cavalry warriors, but the Central Plains has a million soldiers and tens of millions of people." The Eastern Turks and Goguryeo were both large countries with three or four hundred thousand soldiers and horses, and they were still to be destroyed by the Qin. ”

In fact, he was also very opposed to his father's defection to Tibet with the Tuoba tribe, and even more opposed to them going north to attack Qin.

Xifeng turned his head and explained to his daughter who was riding on a horse, "Father knows that he will send you to Chang'an Palace, which is thousands of miles, far away from the tribal family, but this is for the tribe." When I arrived in Chang'an and entered the Taiji Palace, I remembered one thing, don't be impulsive to make your temper tantrum, especially to the emperor of Daqin, and find a way to please the emperor, make your belly bigger as soon as possible, and give birth to a cub, preferably a cub with a handle, so that your status in the palace will be much higher, the mother is more expensive than the son, and our tribe has a prince's nephew, and the status can also be improved. ”

"Actually, I really want to give your brother a princess or a county lord, but this emperor of Great Qin is different from the emperor of Han and Wei, and it is a pity that he actually set up a national motto not to marry a princess." As he spoke, he turned to his son and said, "When you arrive in Chang'an, remember to make more friends, don't be afraid to spend money, Aya will send it to you when you don't have money, make a few more friends, and have a few more roads, especially remember to make more friends with the children of the nobles, but remember not to associate with the royal family, remember." ”

"Why?"

"Except for the crown prince, although the rest of the princes have a respected status, they are also very dangerous, one is not good, they may be involved in the battle for the prince, they may be fine, but others may become pond fish. If you have the opportunity, if you can marry the daughter of the prime minister of the court, even if it is a concubine, it is also very good, but it is not good, but you also have to marry the daughter of the Han family, which will be of great help to you in the Central Plains, and even in the future, after you come back, if there is a Han wife and give birth to a child, then you will be close to them and regard it as half of your own. ”

What Xi Feng Bulai said was what he realized during the years he spent in Chang'an and when he came back later. At that time, he just failed to marry the daughter of a Han minister.

The young fine seal asked curiously, "Father, is what Tang Jian said true, we went to Chang'an, and the emperor of Qin State will issue an edict to canonize my grandfather as the king of the party?" ”

The fine seal Bulai just smiled.

Of course, things will not be so simple, he sent his daughter to the palace and sent his son as a hostage, but it was just a little bit of sincerity, if you want to be the king of the party, you must have a letter of nomination, and this certificate of nomination is to destroy the Tuoba Department.

Only by destroying the strongest of the eight departments of the party can they really be canonized by the king of the party.

Of course, if the Qin army does not send troops, it is impossible for the fine seal Bu Lai to fight with the Tuoba Department alone, and if he doesn't see the rabbit and doesn't scatter the eagle, his fine seal department can be attached to the Great Qin, and he can become the guide and vanguard of the Qin army, but he will never fight alone.

"Let's go, after crossing the snowy mountain in front of you, you will leave the protection of the tribe, remember to put your tail between your legs and be a man outside."

He stood beside the horse, knelt down, and kowtowed to his father.

His daughters bowed down to him.

Tears actually flashed in the eyes of the fine seal Bulai, and there was reluctance.

Ahead, Tang Jian didn't come to disturb their family's farewell, just stood there and watched the group of party horses.

And the gang of the horse gang who came with him, all of them were amazed that this Tang shopkeeper would do business, in three days, 12,000 catties of tea were all sold, the key is that the price is too good, 12,000 catties of tea, in exchange for a thousand good party horses, this business is simply no one.

The old man who led the team even came over with a shy face to ask for the secret.

After all, a good party horse can usually be exchanged for more than 100 catties of tea. But now, in fact, a good horse has only exchanged for a dozen catties of tea.

"Actually, it's very simple, my tea is not ordinary tea, it's good tea."

The old man looked incredulous, when they crossed the snowy mountain, more than a dozen horses died, and they didn't take off the tea leaves on the horses and pack them on their backs, but he had seen it, that is, ordinary black tea, this kind of tea, even if it was an ordinary party horse, had to be exchanged for forty catties of tea.

"What do I lie to you, you see, the nobleman was very pleased with my tea, and not only gave me a thousand good horses, but also sent his son back with me to buy more of this fine tea." He smiled leisurely, "In the future, these Xishan Zhuqiang will definitely be the richest in the party's fine seal department, their vision is good, and they can see it accurately." ”

The old man was puzzled, and he couldn't ask why, so he turned to the second, "Shopkeeper Tang, you see that our business is so smooth, do you still take care of our horse gang in the next transaction?" ”

"It's natural, I'll look for you next time." Tang Jian was in a good mood and said happily.
