Li Jin has been since he came to Fengxiang. It has never been so cool as it is now, as the general of Fengxiang's first cavalry unit, what could be happier than the troops getting good horses? Just now, the lord sent someone to inform him that five hundred Wuhuan top-grade war horses had arrived in Fengxiang.

For cavalry, the war horse is the best companion!

In order to complete the first transaction with Fengxiang this time, the Wuhuan clan sent more than 800 people, all of whom were tired, which shows that the journey from Youzhou to Qingzhou is not easy. If it is just to drive the horses, it won't take many manpower, but this time the 5oo Wuhuan high-grade war horses are a huge fortune, and escorting them all the way is the real reason why so many Wuhuan warriors are dispatched.

The leader was a Wuhuan man named Zalu, a sturdy man in his thirties, with undulating tendons and flesh, who seemed to be quite dissatisfied with being restrained by his clothes, struggling to break out and have a close contact with nature. The fierceness of the children outside the Saiwai is fully revealed in Zalu.

Hearing that the Wuhuan people were coming, Rouran ignored the inconvenience of moving with the big belly and poop, and hurriedly came to meet the clansmen. When she saw that the leader was Zaru, Rouran was even more pleasantly surprised.

"Brother, why are you here!" Rou Ran didn't expect that it was Uncle Qianluo who came to negotiate last time, and it was her own brother who sent Ma this time, so she couldn't help but rush a few steps into Zalu's arms. Tears of joy.

Zalu hugged Rouran gently, grinning and laughing, "I'm about to be a mother, and I'm still like this." After Uncle Qianluo came back last time, my brother took this errand, just to see our little Rouran, how long is it left? ”

Zaru said, gently removing Rouran from his arms, staring at Rouran's bulging lower abdomen, and asked with concern. The pride and delicacy of the children outside the Saiwai are perfectly reflected in Zalu at this time.

"Judging by the time, there is still more than a month to give birth." It was Ju Yi who answered, and when Rouran and Zalu brothers and sisters recognized each other just now, Ju Yi had to stand aside in a proper manner, and this would finally have a chance to say something.

Zalu seemed to see Ju Yi at this time, and smiled at Xiang Rouran: "Did Ju Yi bully you?" If you have, just say it, my brother is the master for you, and the Rouran of our Talan tribe is not easy to mess with. As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at Ju Yi with a rather unkind gaze, making someone so embarrassed.

Rou Ran broke into a smile at this time, turned her eyes and glanced at Ju Yi gently, eating and laughing but not speaking, the tenderness and sweetness in her eyes were ready to come out, which was indirectly rehabilitated Ju Yi.

Ah Niu also arrived at the scene at this time, although it was a little boring that his identity as the lord of a city was ignored, but a certain city lord did not think it was angry. Ah Niu is already easy-going, not to mention that Rouran reunites with the Zalu brothers and sisters, and it is not a big deal to stand next to him for a while.

It was Rouran who came to her senses first and pulled Zaru to greet the city lord.

"Lord Niu, I just met my sister, but I neglected my lord. Thank you for your understanding! "Although Zalu has a rough appearance, since he is Rouran's brother, that is, the young patriarch of the Taran tribe, of course he does not know how to be polite. In private, Ah Niu is the father-in-law of his brother-in-law; Yu Gong, Feng Xiang is an important partner of the Taran tribe, and Zalu doesn't dare to be disrespectful to Ah Niu.

"It's normal for people to be happy to reunite after a long absence, and I just arrived, and the young patriarch seems stingy when he says this." A certain city lord smiled and invited Zaru to the city lord's office for a while. The handover of materials is carried out by Chen Gong and the Wuhuan people.

After Fengxiang was upgraded to a first-class city, Ah Niu had a dedicated city lord's mansion, but the construction period of that building was long, and until now, a city lord had to work in the city lord's office. In fact, Ah Niu already has some nostalgia for the office where he has stayed for a long time, and it seems that he is really not used to letting him change places at first glance.

In the office, Ah Niu and Zalu sat opposite each other, and someone had already held a fragrant tea.

"Youzhou to Qingzhou is a long way, and the young patriarch has worked hard all the way. This tea is the best goods sent from the state capital last time, Ah Niu has not been reluctant to drink, today the young people come from a long way, this tea just comes in handy. Ah Niu Yan took a sip, looking extremely intriguing.

When Zaru heard Ah Niu say this, he also took a big sip of it, almost being scalded by the boiling tea. After frowning and reminiscing for a while, Zalu sneered and said, "Although it is a good tea, it is not as refreshing as the spirits on our grassland, but I still have to thank Lord Ah Niu." ”

The children of the steppe are not good at pretentiousness, which is clearly reflected in Zaru. Ah Niu had a good impression of Zalu's straightforwardness, and said: "This is Ah Niu's negligence, the children outside the Saiwai are good to drink, and I don't know that our Fengxiang's specialty Baihua wine can match the appetite of the young patriarch." Later, I will send someone to deliver some to the young patriarch's camp. ”

More than 800 warriors of the Taran tribe arrived. Fengxiang's inn couldn't accommodate so many people, but fortunately, Zaru didn't care, and all the warriors of the Taran tribe camped outside the city. In fact, Zaru had other considerations: if so many heavily armed warriors were placed in Fengxiang City, he was afraid that it would cause some unnecessary worries, and this young patriarch was obviously coarse and detailed.

"Hundred Flowers Wine!! Thank you first! As soon as a young patriarch heard that it was Baihua wine, his eyes became enthusiastic, and the name of the top ten famous wines in Shenzhou had a very strong attraction to Zalu.

Ah Niu couldn't help but be surprised, and after the two exchanged pleasantries again, Zalu finally talked about the problem of transportation:

"Lord Niu, this time we came out of Youzhou, and we have only arrived in Fengxiang until now, and from the perspective of manpower and time, it took a lot of twists and turns to complete this transaction. There were several robbers on the way, and although the soldiers I brought out were all warriors from the steppe, dozens of people were still lost, and the return trip also involved a large number of cargo transportation problems. As for the trading method, I want to add it up to Lord Niu. ”

Zalu spoke a little unnaturally, and it seemed unreasonable to raise a different opinion now, as Niu had already made a resolution during the negotiations with Qianluo beforehand. It's just that the cost of manpower is too huge to sell horses from Youzhou to Qingzhou, and it is better for the Talan tribe to transport the horses to another buyer!

A certain city lord looked very embarrassed, which made Zaru feel even more guilty, and then said:

Zalu also knows that it is unreasonable to raise objections now, although Fengxiang City is known as the first city in the world, I am afraid it is not very convenient to transport goods to Youzhou for trading. In fact, after Uncle Qianluo returned to the tribe last time, he was reprimanded by his father for this matter, but since he promised to trade, our Talan tribe will not repay the debt, this time Zalu came in person in addition to wanting to meet Rouran, another mission is to communicate with the adults to see if the transaction location can be changed to Youzhou. ”

"If Lord Ah Niu can agree, we are willing to make some concessions on the price of the war horse!" After speaking. Zalu's blazing eyes stared straight at Ah Niu, looking forward to it.

The intestines in the stomach of a certain city lord almost cramped with laughter, in fact, Ah Niu had already expected that the Wuhuan people would raise objections to this, and it was indeed a troublesome thing to take the 6-way transportation. This time, the Talan tribe sent the young patriarch to go out in person, which shows the importance attached to this matter.

"Although what the young patriarch said is true, it is necessary to reduce the price of horses in exchange for a change in the place of trade, Ah Niu believed...... Not good! Ah Niu said solemnly.

As soon as these words came out, Zare's heart immediately sank to the bottom, and the color of disappointment was overflowing. Just as he was thinking about whether to propose to suspend future transactions, Ah Niu's voice sounded again.

"Your tribe is deeply grateful for the efforts they have made in transporting the horses. I also know that transportation is not easy, if Fengxiang and the Taran tribe want to maintain long-term cooperation, they must first solve the transportation problem, otherwise your tribe may not be able to undertake the task of transporting thousands of miles for a long time. I don't know what Ah Niu said is right? ”

"Exactly, what do you mean?" Zaru was a little confused, the famous Inhuman Lord on the other side had just vetoed his own Tiyì, what did he mean by saying this now?

"What I mean is: the location of the transaction can be changed to Youzhou, and the transportation problem can be borne by me Fengxiang, but there is no need to reduce the price of horses. I didn't talk about it well just now, but I just meant reducing the price. A certain city lord laughed.

Zalu was overjoyed, as if he had been tricked by the city lord just now, but such good news was obviously enough to make this guy not have a little resentment. Thinking of Uncle Qianluo's repeated advice before leaving, he was careful of Ah Niu's "trap", and Zalu immediately became a spirit.

The problem of transportation Ah Niu agreed to it in one bite, and even did not want the Taran tribe to make concessions to reduce the price, such a thing can only be explained as pie in the sky, what kind of medicine is Ah Niu selling in the gourd? After thinking about it, Zaru's vest immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

"Lord Niu is so reasonable, Zaru is grateful. It's just that since Feng Xiang is responsible for the transportation, there is no reason why our Talan tribe doesn't make some statements, so let's make it clear what the adults want. Zaru asked stiffly, with an expression on his face like that of a death row inmate on the verge of execution.

Ah Niu sighed softly. "If Ah Niu doesn't want some benefits, I'm afraid the young patriarch won't be at ease. In this case, can the young patriarch send some people to take care of the war horses? The war horses of your tribe are of course the most familiar to the Wuhuan people, and if they can agree to this, Ah Niu will be satisfied. ”

"It's as simple as that?"

"It's that simple!"

Zalu's heart, which was originally hanging in his throat, immediately fell back into his stomach, and after a long laugh, he said, "What's so difficult about this? This time, I will leave ten clansmen to take care of the feeding of the war horses for the adults. Lord Ah Niu is kind and righteous, and Zalu finally understands why the territory of the Lord can become the first city in the world, and he is worthy of being a friend of our Taran tribe! ”

"The brother-in-law of the young patriarch is our Feng Xiang's people, Feng Xiang and the Taran tribe are not outsiders, what is this Xu Xiaoli? We Han people have a saying: Lu Yao knows horsepower, and sees people's hearts for a long time, I believe that the young patriarch will understand that Fengxiang is a true friend of the Taran tribe! ”

"Actually, it's already!" Zarudao.

Zaru and Niu glanced at each other. Laugh out loud.

God knows how a certain city lord is in his heart now, although Ah Niu refused the Talan tribe's initiative to reduce the price of the yì seems to be a little lost, but he has gained the friendship of the Talan tribe. In the long run, of course, the latter is more important!

Because of the relationship with Rouran, Feng Xiang finally got in touch with the Wuhuan tribe and the Taran tribe, but it was not easy to stabilize this relationship. Long-term trade ties with the Wuhuan clan are of great practical significance to Fengxiang City, and Wuhuan's war horses can bring huge benefits to the territory whether Fengxiang uses them for his own use or resells them.

Since it is a transaction, of course, only a "win-win" can ensure the long-term nature of the transaction. In fact, in the last Qianluo negotiations, Ah Niu had suppressed the price of war horses at a fairly low level. If the price drops again, the Taran tribe will not make much profit in such a transaction, and the long-term nature of the cooperation cannot be guaranteed.

A certain city lord seems to be very "helpless" and "improvised" to ask Zaru for some grooms, but in fact, he has been planning for a long time. Although Fengxiang also has a groom, but compared with the Wuhuan people who have dealt with horses since childhood, the gap in ability is obvious, and now the most advanced of Fengxiang's grooms is the bezoar, but its skill level is only an intermediate groom.

And the ten clansmen of Zaluliu Fengxiang are all high-level horsemen without exception! The horse farm in Fengxiang City was soon established.

"By the way, how is Lord Niu going to solve the transportation problem?" Zaru was overjoyed, and he still didn't forget to care about these technical details.

A certain city lord smiled indifferently, and just took Zaru to the dock of the town of Terra.

"Fengxiang City is close to the sea, and the naval army is being formed, and I am ready to solve the transportation problem by sea in the future. Fengxiang's grain, weapons and other trading materials will be transported to Youzhou through the guò fleet, but the exact port is still up for debate. All your tribe needs to do is drive their horses to the port to trade! ”

"This will make it much easier for us to work together in the future! Our tribe has a horse shop in Beiping City, and there is a small port called Port-au-Prince more than 100 miles southeast of Beiping. Zalu finally put his mind at ease, and at the same time had a better understanding of Feng Xiang's strength.

"Yes. It's a pity that we haven't been able to build many warships yet, otherwise the materials for this trade can be transported directly by sea, and it will save your tribe so much labor. ”

"Haha, thank you, my lord, this time I was able to achieve the mission smoothly, and Zalu is already very satisfied. When I go back this time, I will definitely report to my father, Fengxiang's Ah Niu. It's a friend worth making! Zaru smiled happily, as if something had suddenly occurred to him, and then asked:

"Although there is a sea route from Qingzhou to Youzhou, the sea is unpredictable, and it is not easy to sail smoothly, and the dangerous journey is even worse than that of Route 6. Isn't Niu-sama worried about this? ”

I have to say that this Zalu has some talent for "curious babies", but Ah Niu didn't plan to let him know that Feng Xiang didn't see the wind and waves as nothing, and the magic of the golden carp was something that a grassland boy like Zalu could imagine!

Back in Fengxiang, Chen Gong had completed the inventory and handover of horses with Zalu's subordinates, and five hundred war horses had been handed over to Li Jin's cavalry troops.

To Ah Niu's surprise, perhaps Zalu felt that Ah Niu was worth associating, or perhaps because Feng Xiang did not make the Talan tribe make concessions after taking on the transportation problem, Zalu asked him to pick out ten high-quality war horses from the mounts of the Wuhuan warriors and give them to Feng Xiang.

These ten war horses are of higher quality than the 5oo war horses traded, and they can be called divine horses in the Central Plains, even if they have money, they may not be able to buy them, and this gift is not insignificant. More importantly, with these ten high-quality war horses, Feng Xiang's military generals have also been able to "change their clothes"!

After thanking Zalu, Ah Niu sent people to ask the leading generals of Fengxiang's various troops to find them, and when it was announced that they could pick horses freely, the scene was jubilant again. For generals, good weapons, armor, and war horses can not only improve combat power, but also give them more opportunities to save their lives at critical moments in battle.

The first to pick a horse was Zhao Xue, a snow-white horse was picked by Zhao Xue, this little mm heard that there was a war horse to pick, and he came over by jumping on the ground. Although Zhao Xue is not a military general under Ah Niu, let alone leading troops, it seems that no one will say a word about Zhao Xiaomei's priority.

Next, Li Jin, Gao Shun, Lu Han, and even Jiang Qin each chose a favorite war horse, and they were all overjoyed, and Di Yun, who had not recovered from his injuries, also had a share, and it was not difficult to see the preference of a certain city lord for the most outstanding military general of the "Fengxiang Military Academy" so far.

Ju Yi didn't pick it, this benevolent brother is the son-in-law of the Lord of the Taran tribe, so naturally there will be no embarrassment of lacking good horses.

Zalu was also very happy when he saw the reaction of the generals of Fengxiang, and saw that Ah Niu did not pick a horse, but said that a certain city lord had a high vision and did not look down on these goods. Turned around and ordered the congregation to lead a war horse with a pitch-black body as ink as tall and divine horse over, and saw that the generals of Fengxiang all showed hunger and thirst, this horse is really too godly!

Zalu took the reins, stroked the war horse with his big hand for a while, and his head approached the horse and it was a "grinding of ears and temples", which was extremely reluctant. Then he said to Ah Niu with a solemn face:

"Lord Niu, this 'ink wind' has a tame temperament and is quite spiritual, but it can travel 800 miles a day, which is my favorite ride. There is no good gift to meet with Lord Niu today, the so-called BMW gives the hero, and Zalu will give the ink wind to the adult! ”

Ah Niu was stunned for a moment, and immediately bowed deeply to Zalu, "The young patriarch is so gracious, he really regards Ah Niu as a friend, since this is the case, Ah Niu is disrespectful!" ”

A certain city lord finally has a side-catching horse, in fact, when Ah Niu rode the "ink wind" to travel, the return rate was not very high, but too many "admiring" eyes were not aimed at a certain city lord. (To be continued)
