"Don't worry, this is a matter between you Turks, although I am the King of Wei of the Tang Dynasty, I have no right to manage you Turks, so I won't stop it." Li Tai said: "As long as your heart is towards my Datang, who is the Khan of the Turks, we Datang don't care at all." ”

Hearing Li Tai's words, Ashina Helu's hanging heart also relaxed.

He was also a little worried, and Li Tai was angry and sent troops to the Western Turks.

Although the Western Turks are also considered to be powerful countries in the Western Regions, compared to the Tang Dynasty, they are really not qualified.

The Eastern Turks have been wiped out, and they still dare to underestimate the Tang Dynasty?

"Your Highness, I heard that Your Highness is the richest prince in the Tang Dynasty." Ashina Helu asked.

"Oh? Has my fame spread to the grasslands? Hey, I originally wanted to be a low-key person, but I didn't expect to be known by you. Li Tai was extremely proud and said: "Okay, I am indeed the richest prince in the Tang Dynasty, the largest capitalist in the entire Tang Dynasty, that is, a businessman." ”

Ashina Helu was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, in addition to reporting the funeral and asking for canonization, I also have a mission, that is, to do business with Your Highness."

"Oh? What business? The corners of Li Tai's mouth showed a hint of playfulness.

"Grain business!" Ashina Helu said.

"Grain?" The corners of Li Tai's mouth showed a hint of playfulness, these guys who can only plunder, can actually do business?

But also, now that the Tang Dynasty is prosperous, they don't dare to go south to fight the grass valley, so they can only do business with the Tang Dynasty obediently.

Suddenly, Li Tai's eyes lit up, and he thought about it!

Western Turks!

Western!

Good!

What a Western Turk!

"It's food, my Western Turks urgently need food from the Tang Dynasty!" Ashina Helu said.

Only when there is enough food can the population be increased.

It's not okay to eat beef and mutton every day.

"I do have this grain in Datang, but you also know that Datang has control over food." Li Tai smiled slightly and said, "If there is no grain introduction, you will not be able to transport a large amount of grain back to the Western Turks." ”

"However, I can help you get a lot of food primers, I wonder what you can trade with me?" Li Tai said.

"What do you think, hides? The sheepskins of my Western Turks are the best in the whole steppe! Ashina Helu said.

"We have cloth, brocade, and Shu embroidery, to be honest, we don't need animal skins in Datang, even ordinary people don't wear animal skins." Li Tai shook his head.

"Then Niu Ma, what do you think?" Ashina Helu asked again.

"We are not short of cattle and horses, especially after defeating the Eastern Turks, we have enough cattle and horses to eat for several years." Li Tai still shook his head.

"Then Your Highness thinks that we have anything to trade with Your Highness?" Ashina Helu was a little embarrassed.

Li Tai smiled faintly and said, "Steel! ”

"Steel?" Ashina Helu is very puzzled, I, the Turks, don't produce steel.

"That's right, Uzi Steel!"

"Where is Uzi?"

"Between Tianzhu and Zhangxiong." Li Tai showed a faint smile on his face and said: "Go west from Chang'an City, walk through the countries of the Western Regions, and reach the territory of the Tocharians, there is a naturally formed canyon between the Tocharians and Tianzhu, from which you can enter Tianzhu. ”

"In the northwest corner of Tianzhu, in Persia, and in the area of Zhangzhung, a kind of steel ingot, which the locals call 'fulat', if you can transport this thing, I am willing to give a hundred catties of grain in exchange for one catty of steel ingots, ten horses of cloth in exchange for a catty of steel ingots, five horses of brocade in exchange for a catty of steel ingots, or tea and refined salt in exchange with you." Li Tai smiled slightly and said, "I need steel ingots!" ”

Uzi steel is the raw material for the production of Damascus knives, and later became a national treasure in some countries.

"This ......," Ashina Helu couldn't help frowning slightly.

Seems to be thinking.

After a while, he spoke, and said, "If this steel ingot is so valuable, isn't it a local treasure, how can we obtain it?" ”

"Whether it's Persia or Tianzhu, or Zhangxiong, the strength is not weak." Ashina Helu said with some embarrassment.

"Hahaha......" Hearing Ashina Helu's words, Li Tai laughed.

Then, he said, "Not weak? No! In fact, their strength is very weak! ”

"Persia is now at war with the Great Eclipse, and it is too busy to take care of itself, there is still time to take care of this, and as far as I know, Persia will be annexed by the Great Eclipse in the near future."

"At this time, if you Western Turks send troops, it is estimated that you will be able to get a piece of the pie soon, you must know that Persia is quite a good and rich place!"

"Besides, Tianzhu, Tianzhu is not a unified country like my Central Plains, Tianzhu is actually a place, in this place, there are many countries, the most powerful of which is the Jieri Dynasty, the whole country of the Jieri Kingdom has less than 10,000 troops, and the most cavalry is less than 1,000."

"It is worth mentioning that the climate of this Tianzhu is much better than that of your Western Turks, much warmer, and the territory of Tianzhu is vast, and many of them are production places, if they are used, they will be another big country."

"And Zhangxiong, now that you are at war with the Tibetans, there are no troops left to stop you......" Li Tai gushed out.

A hint of greed flashed in Ashina Horu's eyes.

He also had a great khan on Ashina Heluzu, could he be willing to be the queen?

No!

He was not reconciled!

He is now the Khan of the Horde, but he also wants to be the Great Khan of the entire Turkic people!

If it weren't for his own lack of strength, how would he obediently attach himself to Ashina and Russia?

"Hey, it's a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity that I'm the King of Wei of the Tang Dynasty, if I were a free tribe like you, I would definitely take the scimitar for me to conquer these weak places. Power, wealth, women, at your fingertips! Li Tai raised his voice and said, "The wolves on the grassland, what can wander in one place?" ”

"The eagle on the prairie yearns for a free sky, not a pet in the hands of people." The smile on the corner of Li Tai's mouth smacked of conspiracy.

"Your Highness, the minister suddenly remembered, the minister still has something to do, so he will leave first." Ashina Helu hurriedly stood up, and then took his leave.

"Since Helu Khan has an urgent matter, then I won't keep you to eat, so let's go about your affairs first." Li Tai said with a smile.

"Farewell!"

"I'm not far away." Li Tai said lightly.

Ashina Helu turned around and walked quickly outside.

Hurry, hurry.

Looking at Ashina Helu's figure, the corners of Li Tai's mouth showed a hint of playfulness.

It's about to be done!
