213. War horses change quotas

"Envoy of the Tang Dynasty, can you give us more quota for selling fresh milk?" Ukishi pleaded to Jingwen.

Ukishi has no choice, he is oppressed to death by those big tribes. Originally, they only had a sales quota of 50,000 catties of fresh milk, but now they were immediately robbed by the big tribe, which made them almost nothing. And they also know that although the Han people gave them a quota, the Han people could not manage the affairs on the grassland, they were robbed, and the Han people could not call the shots. Therefore, they can only find a way to get Jingwen to give more quotas, so that they can still earn something.

Jingwen immediately pretended to be stupid and asked, "Didn't I give you 50,000 catties?" Why more? ”

Of course, Wu Qishi can't say that he was robbed by the big tribe, but can only say: "Our tribe is too poor to survive, so I hope Tang will make you take pity on us and give us one more chance to make money." When the time comes, our tribe will be able to maintain it safely, and we will definitely be grateful to Tang Envoy for you!" ”

Jingwen had a smile on his face, obviously a formulaic smile. Jing Wendu has slowly adapted to the work of this diplomat, and it feels very interesting. Isn't it great to not only be able to make money, but also to provoke other people's relationships? This exciting game is very fun. Moreover, even the Turks knew about their deeds, but what they could do with them, it was not impossible to kill them. Because the two countries are at war, they will not be killed! What's more, he hasn't started a war yet, and if he doesn't go to war, killing the envoy will be a great hatred, and it will be impossible to resolve it lightly.

As for people like Wu Qishi, Jingwen has actually been in contact with several in the past few days, and they all have one request, that is, to increase the quota. Those guys' quotas were indirectly robbed by the big tribes, but they were unwilling to lose the opportunity to make money. So they are thinking about increasing the quota. In this way, they can continue to make money, so that they can maintain the corrupt life of these tribal leaders!

"Well, since your tribe is so poor, we can think about it as well. Our Datang is a state of etiquette, enthusiastic to help friends, and we can do our best to help friends if they need. Jingwen set the tone first.

Jingwen was made a little want to vomit by his own words, what kind of enthusiasm to help friends, this is a completely shadowless thing. Let's not talk about whether the Turks are friends or not, let's just say that Jingwen has no habit of being Yang Bailao. Although the emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty had a preference for doing Yang Bailao. But at least Jingwen didn't. Jingwen does things for a purpose, and what is not beneficial is that others can not do it, this is a good habit for future generations to be unprofitable and not early, and they will not mention the enemy to work and contribute for some invisible reputation, and they will also post financial resources!

"But we don't need that much! What do you think? Jingwen asked.

"Please also ask the Tang envoy to think of a way!" Ukisch pleaded.

Jingwen made a serious thought look, and finally said: "Actually, it's not impossible! We may as well do this, and you may sell us horses. Then in exchange for quotas. Didn't we negotiate a trade agreement with the Turks about the exchange of war horses for tea? We can make an agreement with you small tribes, you can sell one war horse at a time, and I can give you a quota of 100 catties of fresh milk. This is to take advantage of the opportunity to sell war horses and get more quotas. In this way, you can not only sell fresh milk. You can also sell war horses to get wealth, killing two birds with one stone, why not? ”

Jingwen's idea is very simple, that is, he wants to get a war horse. Although the Tang Dynasty and the Turks signed an agreement on the exchange of tea for war horses. But with his ass, he can think that the Turks will never sell their war horses to Datang lightly, and they must sell them to a limited extent. But Jingwen wanted to get more war horses. Then naturally we have to find a way from the hands of these small tribes. These small tribes don't care about any national plans, as long as they can make money to develop the tribe. Now there is no one in the Turks who is willing to purchase their things, only the Tang Dynasty envoy Jingwen in front of them, so they all found Jingwen in a hurry. Now what Jingwen says, can they still refute it? Therefore, now that Jingwen said that he wanted to exchange war horses for quotas, those small tribes really couldn't say anything.

"War horses in exchange for fresh milk quotas? How many horses do you want each year? If it's too much, I'm afraid we can't either. Uchisch asked.

Jing Wen immediately stretched out five fingers and said, "Five hundred!" As long as you can provide 500 war horses, I can give you a quota of 50,000 catties, so that you will be equivalent to doubling the quota. And we can also exchange war horses for tea, so it's fair, right? ”

When Uchishi heard that there were five hundred war horses, and that they were exchanged for tea, he immediately rejoiced. Because tea is now famous in the steppe, many Turkic nobles drank it, and it was good for the body. In the future, I am afraid that the grassland will demand a large amount of tea, so tea is one of the hard currencies on the grassland, and it is not afraid of depreciation. When Wu Qishi heard that Jingwen was willing to exchange tea for war horses, he also felt that it was unavoidable. Anyway, I can make money twice at a time, and no one wants to do it. And this Wu Qishi was fooled by Jingwen again. Now, these ordinary Turks have been sold by Jingwen, and they have helped Jingwen count the money!

Jingwen's so-called one or two million catties of fresh milk at the beginning actually left room for it. In fact, two million catties of fresh milk, that is, about more than 2,000 tons, these are not enough for many people in Datang to drink! If you want more people in Datang to drink fresh milk, two million catties of fresh milk is far from enough, so more is needed. The reason why Jingwen only said that he wanted a quota of two million catties at the beginning was actually just to prepare for his later behavior. Now you can kill two birds with one stone, you can get a lot of channels for war horses, and you can also get fresh milk, isn't this killing two birds with one stone? When the fresh milk processing plant starts, then the fresh milk can be processed into milk powder, and then transported back to the Central Plains to be enjoyed by those dignitaries.

At present, the likelihood of universal access to dairy products is low and almost impossible. However, it can be enjoyed by those nobles of the Tang Dynasty and all kinds of rich people. Anyway, those guys have a lot of money, so I will create zĂ o consumption points for them and help them spend some of it. What's more, dairy products are recognized as supplements, and many people will definitely be willing to drink them. (To be continued......)
