"Tonight, the male guest is the Turki Khan, the guest is Dur, you come to cut the sheep!"

Tuli Khan and Ashinadur pushed and turned over a few times, but Zuihou was still done by Ashinadur.

Today, since he sat here, he seemed unusually calm, kneeling extremely quietly, whether Li Yuanxing said that he would punish Princess Huainan, or whether he had precious treasures, he was sitting motionless like that.

This is the growth of Ashnadur.

He had dreams, and he wanted to be a great general.

Ashinadur came to the roast sheep and pulled out the knife he was equipped with.

The little Khan had just seen this barrier knife, the scabbard was very ordinary, just a hard bamboo shell wrapped in a layer of linen, and there was a section about three inches long of pigskin on the part of the hand, and there was an iron sleeve at the edge of the scabbard and the tip of the scabbard.

When he first saw this knife, the first reaction of the little Khan of Tuli was that Ashinadur was not doing well in Datang.

At least not rich.

But when Ashinadur pulled out the knife, the eyes of the little Khan of Tuli changed.

There was not the slightest reflection on the knife, but there was an inexplicable chill, this was a good knife. At this moment, Ashinadur moved, and quickly slashed dozens of knives on the roasted whole sheep.

The head of the sheep was cut off from the neck.

Ashinadur does not have the skills of a super-first-class chef, he does not cut along the bone seam, he uses the strength of his wrist and the sharpness of the knife to cut off the sheep bones.

But that action is not like chopping bones. Instead, it's cutting tofu.

"Humble General!" Ashinadur put the front leg meat on the tray, put the knife in his hand on the table in front of him, and strode to the position of the main seat: "The humble general knows that the noble eldest grandson queen does not like fat, and the front leg meat is tender, but not greasy. ”

"You are wrong, you are the general of the Tang Dynasty, you don't need to add anything honorable in front of the imperial sister-in-law. In a simple word, please use mutton for the queen. Affection is at ease! ”

Ashinadur smiled, the kind of smile that the little khan had never seen before.

It's a child-like thing that comes from the heart. Very simple smile.

"Remember next time!"

Empress Changsun returned the gift as a token of gratitude. He also said, "How are the preparations for the wedding, and what else is needed?" ”

"Cui Changshi and Wei Changshi have helped the generals a lot, and the generals at the border pass have transported many items of our Turkic tribe from thousands of miles away. Everything is ready and secure! Ashinadur said happily.

Age-wise. He was still young at this time.

There is no father. He also has no mother. Need a loved one.

Li Yuanxing is the king of Qin and his boss, and he is a little afraid of Li Yuanxing from the heart. But the kindness of Empress Eldest Sun made him feel like a mother, so he was much closer to each other in words, and he was more and more respectful in his heart.

On the other side, the little Khan of Tuli was staring at the obstacle knife that Ashnadur placed on the table.

The little Turkic khan was a Turkic prince, he had been playing with knives since he was a child, and the three most important things in his life were the first is the knife, the second is the knife, and the third is the bow. After that, it's power, wealth, and so on!

This knife is more than good.

It is definitely an extraordinary sword, but why is such a knife only used as a barrier knife, such a steel, such a process has been made into a horizontal knife, or a scimitar.

Thinking of this, the little Khan of Tuli shifted his gaze to the knife holder in the hallway.

When everyone comes in, they will put their own saber on the knife holder, and the barrier knife belongs to the ceremonial knife, and it is the only knife that can be left without leaving the body. Although such a knife also has a lot of lethality.

Above the knife holder, there was a straight knife that was longer than the others, and the scabbard was still very ordinary, but from the decoration on it, it was a Turkic straight knife. When the Turkic knife was in the Great Sui, it affected the knife-making process of the Great Sui, and the straight knife had some process shape characteristics, which also affected the Tang horizontal knife.

But the Turkic knife is the Turkic knife, even if the Turks are in turn influenced by the Tang knife.

The subtle difference between the two types of knives can be seen in the little Khan of Tuli.

The length of the knife is one inch higher than the standard, and the requirements for steel are several times higher, and the length of the knife is five inches, which is almost impossible.

The little Khan of Tuli had an urge to pull the knife out.

Ashnadur had returned, and sat back in his seat, and the little Khan of Tuli asked, "Why don't you deserve a good scabbard?" Your knife seems to be very extraordinary! ”

Ashinadur generously handed the knife to the little Khan of Tuli and said: "This is Yaozhou special steel, and some materials have been added, I am not a knifesmith, so I can't tell the difference." This one is actually a broken knife, on the material craftsmen say that it is comparable to the broken waves of a knife, but I am young and vigorous, and I only understand after trying to compete with a knife, the people who use the knife are different, and a good knife will also be dusty. ”

The little Khan looked at the blade carefully, and the tip of the knife seemed to be imperfect.

Think about what Ashinadur said, it should be cut off here, and the broken blade was not repaired, but the part of the broken blade was beaten into the shape of the tip of a knife.

However, after thinking about it, the little Khan of Tuli still didn't understand: "What you said has nothing to do with the scabbard!" ”

"With a good scabbard, there are always people who think about it. Zhili Sili remembered that the scabbard was ordinary, just like an ordinary sergeant, as long as it was a standard knife issued from above, naturally no one would worry about it. When Ashnadur said, he was very happy.

The little Khan of Tuli asked again: "Do your subordinates dare to peep into your treasures?" ”

"They are all brothers in the same battalion, but my rank as a general is a little higher. Speaking of treasures, although such knives are rare, they are not impossible to buy, and even if they can't be bought, they can be exchanged for military merit. It's just that among the brothers, it is not like when we were on the grassland, although they sat in a tent, but their hearts were thousands of miles away! ”

The little Khan didn't answer, he felt that the Ashinadur in front of him was different from what he remembered.

At this time, Ashinadur continued: "Actually, it's just a knife. It's more of fun! ”

"Compared to pearls like that?" The little Khan asked again.

"I have a farm on the border between Huazhou and Chang'an. I had only thirteen slaves, the rest were hired Murowe, and a few locals. I have a hundred cows, thirty-four thousand pigs, fifty thousand sheep, and seven hundred thousand chickens. There are also 3,000 acres of fertile land and an orchard of eight acres, and it is estimated that in two or three years, the orchard will be able to bear fruit. ”

The little Khan of Tuli was calculating the value of these in his heart.

Ashinadur then said, "We have three thousand thunder riders. There is also a total of a mountain. There is a very secret workshop in this mountain. The output of this workshop is worth at least 40,000 yuan a year, and the wages paid to the craftsmen of the workshop, plus the maintenance of the machine, fall on the thunder riders. There are also close to 20,000. This was after the attack on Liaocheng and the battle of Jian'an. The reward we get for riding the thunder. ”

What does 40,000 Guan represent.

In the case of the wool of the steppe. It would take 26 million sheep to get the 40,000 pieces of silver.

What's more, the wool on the grassland is now purchased by Datang. Far from such a large number. In the case of the tribe of the little Khan of Tuli, their wool was mixed with goat's milk, sheepskin, and mutton. barely reached an income of 80,000 yuan.

But his tribe is more than just 3,000 people.

"General Ashina, respect you." Qin Qiong raised her glass from afar and shouted.

Ashinadur raised his glass and drank a large bowl of wine happily, and then raised another glass: "General Qin, respect you!" ”

The little Khan of Tuli suddenly felt that Ashinadur was very rich, and his wealth did not even need to think about grabbing the loot, he only needed to fight according to the requirements of the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty, and after the battle, he would get what he deserved.

"Xiangbi, among the troops of the Tang Dynasty, they are all very rich!" The little Khan of Tuli said with a smile.

"No, among the four guards of Tiance, we are the richest Lei Qi. Because we have the most achievements. "Ashinadur didn't say it completely, he just said the merits of the war. is talking about the battle of Liaocheng, but one of his exploits is the Luoyang flood, but this is not a real battle with a real sword, so he didn't mention it.

At this time, Ashinadur's heart only thought that he had obeyed the order.

I don't know what it means to fight the floods.

Because it was not a real battle, he had been avoiding the topic of the Luoyang flood.

"The richest are the right guards, the left guards, and the right guards. Their combat exploits are higher than our Lei Qi, but although they have more rewards, the number of these three guards is much higher than our Lei Cai, so it is distributed to everyone, and Lei Qi does not lose too much to them, I just hope that there will be any battles to fight in the past two years! ”

After Ashinadur finished speaking, he saw Princess Hengyang quietly beckoning to him.

"My brother hasn't drunk or eaten meat, I'm afraid he's just talking. Brother eat and drink first, I'll go and come back! ”

The little Khan nodded in a daze, his mind was already filled with Ashnadur's words.

That sentence, I hope there will be some battles to be fought in the past two years.

In the steppe, when will people want to fight.

There is not enough food for the winter, there is not enough wine and meat. Go south to rob and get a supplement for wintering.

But once the water and grass are abundant in the year, the sheep grow strong, and there are enough sheep to survive the winter. In such a situation, the entire steppe is reluctant to fight.

Ordinary people are reluctant because they can already survive the winter.

The leaders of the tribe were also reluctant, because sending troops was not necessarily guaranteed to be recovered, and sometimes a lot of jerky could be lost, and many people would die.

Especially in good years, when there is enough food, they dare not act rashly.

Because the tribesmen have no desire for spoils, no desire to fight, they only want to grab things and save their lives.

If Ashnadur's property is true, then he is already very rich.

In such a situation, he also longed for war.

There was a faint feeling of fear in the heart of the little Khan of Tuli.

If the entire Tang army is like this, then who are the enemies around the Tang Dynasty now?

The Turks are not friends of the Tang Dynasty, but they are barely considered enemies for the time being. (To be continued......)
