"Yes!" Li Yi naturally couldn't hide these things, and he told Huo Gang's conditions at the moment.

"This business can't do that." Li Er shook his head directly.

Li Yi was stunned for a moment, but he didn't dare to refute, just sat there obediently, waiting for Li Er to continue speaking.

"Tell him that the amount is too small, and this number is only a few hundred horses in the end, what can he do? If it is only this amount, the price is up to 50 yuan per horse, and there is no such thing as exchanging horses for horses, we can pay for silk, grain, charcoal, and other things. Li Er said lightly.

"Do you think I'm wrong?" Seeing this, Li Er glanced at Li Yi and said.

"I don't dare." Li Yi hurriedly spoke.

"You may think that I don't know how to do business, but I tell you that you are too small. You go back and tell him that either the number of horses traded this year is at least two thousand or more! It can be according to the price he said, as well as the transaction method, or, I Datang will not do this business, and I Datang will not have any caravan to do business with him. Li Er sneered and said.

"But when you talk about it, the number is three thousand!" Li Er added.

Li Yi instantly understood what Li Er was going to do, indeed, the reason why Li Yi didn't have the courage of Li Er was because Li Yi was just the eldest son of a wealthy family, but Li Er was the emperor of the entire Tang Dynasty! This country is his, so he has the strength to say this.

And the meaning of Li Er's words is very clear, then be sure, in addition to trading with me Huo Gang, who else can you go with? Especially after Huo Gang offended the Western Turks.

"However, the premise is that the war horses he provides are really as good as you describe!" Li Er said coldly, "After you go back, if he agrees, all the war horses will be sent to Chang'an, don't worry, money or something else, I won't miss you, but it's really such an elite war horse, not a single one is missing!" ”

"Minister! Yes, sir! Li Yi stood up directly, "But Your Majesty, what if he sells so much, but wants to buy some prohibited materials?" Steel, for example. ”

"Except for steel, everything else can be discussed, including grain, silk, and other things, you can give him a preferential price, not the price you sell to the Western Regions." Li Er shook his head very dryly.

"Minister, I see." Li Yi immediately nodded.

"Alright, you can go." Li Er waved his hand.

"Minister, retire!" Li Yi immediately stood up.

"Wait." Li Er suddenly remembered something again, and opened his mouth to stop Li Yi, who had taken a few steps back.

"Your Majesty, please command." Li Yi hurriedly saluted again.

"After you go back, help me keep an eye on An Xinggui and the movements of the An family or other wealthy families in the entire Liangzhou, don't tell anyone about this matter, including your father, can you do it?" When Li Er said this, he stood up from his chair and stared at Li Yi motionlessly.

Li Yi instantly felt as if he was being targeted by some fierce beast, and a dense cold sweat immediately oozed from his back, and he quickly arched his hand: "The minister will live up to His Majesty's trust." ”

"I hope you remember that." Li Er's momentum was retracted, "You can go, if there is any information transmitted back to Chang'an through secret channels, I will let people go to you, don't let anyone else get the news, you will definitely get the news when you come to Chang'an An Xinggui this time, no matter who Huo Gang is, if he doesn't make much moves, it's just a normal trade, let him." ”

"Yes!"

"But there is one more thing, what should not be sold will never be sold! I know that at the border pass, many small families under the five surnames and Qiwang are doing forbidden business with the Turks on the grassland, and I hope that the Li family in Longxi will not be like them. Li Er's tone became light, but listening to it in Li Yi's heart was like a thunderclap, and the clothes on his back were wet with cold sweat.

After finishing speaking, Li Er waved his hand, this time he didn't say anything, and Chang Lin next to him immediately walked over and left here with Li Yi.

After Li Yi left, Li Er's gaze became deep and looked into the distance, if the change of Xuanwu Gate was Li Er's reverse scale, no one dared to mention it, then what happened in Weishui last August was a great shame that happened to Li Er's head, a shame that he would have to wash away sooner or later!

And if you want to wash away this shame, war horses are indispensable, especially the truly elite war horses, and there are not many horse farms in Datang that can provide war horses, so there is naturally no way to compare with the Turks in this regard, and elite war horses are too few!

Therefore, to a certain extent, Li Yi's secret letter just scratched Li Er's itch, but judging from what Li Yi said, Li Er understood that An Xinggui was hiding a lot of things from him.

But Li Er doesn't have any way now, the Li family in Longxi is very big, although the Dunhuang house of the Li family in Longxi is also in the Western Regions, but there is no way to compare with the An family who has lived in Liangzhou for generations, An Xinggui can break the Li track by himself, do you really think it is a problem of his eloquence? There may be a reason for this, but not absolutely.

If he doesn't live in Liangzhou in the era, but in other places such as Jiangnan or the Central Plains, you let An Xinggui try it alone?

And Li Yuan named An Xinggui as the Duke of Liangguo, in order to stabilize the Western Regions with the help of the power of the An family, give the Tang Dynasty, and give them the space that the Li royal family can free up? Five surnames and seven looks, Li Shimin sneered.

Even if he has to say to the outside world that he is from the Li family in Longxi, but as the emperor, then he can no longer stand on the side of any gate valve, to be precise, before they ascended the throne, the family gate valve is their biggest help, and after they ascend the throne, the family gate valve is their biggest enemy!

How the Li family won this large piece of the country, this makes Li Shimin very clear about how terrifying the power of the family gate valve is, if their power is not reduced, but whenever they encounter a weak emperor, this country will be unstable.

However, there are times when there is no one, he Li Shimin is Li Shimin, and when there are people, he Li Shimin is Li Er.

As for Huo Gang, to be honest, Li Shimin has no pity, although at present, Huo Gang is a talent and a good seedling for fighting, but Datang is not short of talents, but lacks time!

As for what is the contradiction between the Huo family and An Xinggui, Li Shimin doesn't want to know, in his opinion, An Xinggui is stupid and stupid to directly press the other party to death when he has the opportunity, otherwise, where are there so many problems.

However, this is not good news for An Xinggui, but it is good news for Datang, if Huo Gang really stabilizes the countries of the Western Regions such as Tongluo and even Loulan, it means that there is a buffer zone between Datang and these countries and the Western Turks.

If Huo Gang still wants to trade with them, and he is a Han Chinese, then there is a high probability that it is unlikely to enter Liangzhou to burn and loot the Tang Dynasty like the Western Turks, which means that the border of the Tang Dynasty is stabilized in a large area, and it can also help them block the enemy.

Don't look at Huo Gang has a devil's name, and even did massacres, but as the emperor, Li Shimin understands that it is Liwei and counterattack, but Liwei counterattack and burn and loot are two different concepts, Huo Gang will never do the latter thing, if he really does it, then his pattern will be like this.
