As time passed, the trading in the Jingnan Military Market gradually became lively. In particular, other personnel in Guanzhong were also attracted by the military market and joined in the buying and selling of goods in the military market, which immediately made the military market become popular.

Although the military market restricts only military personnel to enter the market to buy and sell, and uses Pingqiang coupons as the only trading currency, the circulation of goods is not limited to the military market. All kinds of scalping around the military market also gradually flourished, and the meritorious soldiers were able to make a profit when they turned their hands, and with such a successful experience, the soldiers also gradually let go of their hands and feet, and exchanged the goods in the general market with Pingqiang coupons.

Tuyuhun captured a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry and various luxury goods in the First War, but the digestion capacity of Guanzhong was still relatively limited. And Li Tai does not really want the folk customs of Guanzhong to turn into extravagant pleasure, although the yearning for a better life is the common pursuit of all people, but today has not been unified, it is still not appropriate to overemphasize enjoyment.

The nobles of the Northern Qi Dynasty and Jinyang are undoubtedly the group of people with the most purchasing power, although it is said that the Northern Qi Dynasty's defense of Xishan has been greatly strengthened, making it difficult to circulate personnel.

However, there are always more ways than difficulties, and there are still people who continue to risk their lives to wander in the Luliang Mountains to engage in smuggling. In addition to being an important military town, Suizhou, which Li Tai inspected before, also had another function as a smuggling base. And the main manpower engaged in these smuggling is the subordinate of Liu Kuzhen, the chief of Jihu, and the main reason why this guy has become so rich in recent years is this.

It's just that although the smuggling profits are high, they are not very safe after all, and once they are detected by the border guards of the Northern Qi Dynasty, it is a loss of people and goods. In the past, because of the precedent of Li Tai's family quietly leaving Jinyang, now the border guards around Jinyang in the Northern Qi Dynasty do not dare to easily make friends with smuggling merchants, even if they have been corrupted to some in recent years, they do not dare to smuggle in large quantities.

The market of Northern Qi is limited, while the Southern Liang of Jiangdong has a withered livelihood and limited purchasing power, and it is also a headache to realize these treasures.

In addition to these internal regimes, the Turks were also a more suitable trade object among the surrounding powers. As the new steppe overlord, the Turks must have accumulated a lot of wealth in the process of their rise, and Li Tai had previously bribed the wooden pole khan with treasure to stay in the south of Yinshan and then attack and kill him, which also reflected that these Turkic upper-class figures had a more urgent need to improve their quality of life.

Before, because the Khan who controlled the land had not returned to control the situation, Li Tai did not discuss the issue of trade and trade with him, but now he should have gained a firm foothold in his country, after all, he has the spare strength to send troops outside, but he can discuss related issues.

It's not just Li Tai who wants to talk to the Turks, but the Turkic Meng Yehu has also been asking for a meeting frequently in the past few days, but Li Tai has been busy with the army and has not had time to meet him, so this time he was introduced into the imperial city to meet.

"The Turkic envoy meets the Prime Minister of Tang!"

This Meng Yehu actually knows some Chinese, although he is not proficient, but there is no problem with basic communication, so he was appointed several times to envoy the Western Wei, and he refused to say that it was because he looked down on the Western Wei and the Han people, but after being taught a lesson, he became polite.

In order to ensure that the information of the dialogue could be accurately conveyed to the other party, Li Tai arranged for Wei Dizhi, who had been an envoy to the Turks, to interpret and explain the dialogue at the table.

"This attack on Tuyuhun has also helped the Turkic soldiers such as you, and I have ordered the Liangzhou side to reward them as appropriate. The two countries have a long relationship, and if it weren't for the fierce and rebellious, there would not have been a previous war. Now the joint attack on Tuyuhun has further verified that cooperation is beneficial to both sides."

Li Tai first expressed his gratitude to the Turks for their assistance in the war, and then said: "After the farewell of Yinshan, there are many affairs in our country, and there is no time to take care of the personnel of Mobei.

"Smooth, smooth, thank you Tang Gong Dacheng for your concern, after the Khan returned to China, he gathered the heads of the various ministries and said that he would die by a catty, and the people of the sect should not hate Dawei, they must be obedient......

Meng Yehu hurriedly stumbled over and told the story of the return of the Khan who controlled the land to take power, and repeatedly expressed his respect for the Western Wei Dynasty.

The reason why the Khan was able to take control of his country smoothly

The first reason for the great power is that the wooden pole Khan has been on the throne for a short time and has not yet established absolute prestige in the country, and the wooden pole has failed to use troops in the Northern Qi and Western Wei dynasties, which also makes some Turkic internal magnates feel that they are self-defeating, and the current Turks have not completely lost their awe of the southern regime.

The second is because of the residual prestige of the Ili Khan Ashina Tumen, who single-handedly developed the Turks from Rouran to the current steppe overlord, even though he has been dead for several years, he still has high prestige among the Turkic tribes. As the oldest of the living sons of Ashina Tumen, it is logical for the Khan to inherit the throne.

By the way, today's Kutou is no longer called the Khan of the control of the land, but changed to the Khan of Wuzun, which means "long" in the Turkic language, in addition to sounding more auspicious, this name also reflects to a certain extent that the person also has some ideas and ambitions of his own.

Li Tai was not surprised by this, whether it was Wuzun or controlling the land, at present, the Turkic Khan Court was still an area that was difficult for the Western Wei to directly influence and control, as long as the other party remained humble and did not dare to openly make enemies with the Western Wei, Li Tai did not expect to make it an absolute puppet.

After telling the current internal situation of the Turks, Meng Yehu got up again and bowed: "Earlier, I was ordered by Qi Jin to enter the country to discuss marriage, although because of Qi Jin's arrogance, Tang Gong was furious and attacked, but this Old Testament Wuzun Khan did not dare to forget, this time sent troops to help the war, and the Khan ordered the humble envoy to escort the Yixi Ji Khan woman to sacrifice Tang Gong.

During the war, the princess was placed in Liangzhou, and after the war, she was sent to Chang'an. Wuzun Khan ordered the envoy to pay homage to the Tang Duke, and the Khan was not reluctant to give up his own daughter, but was worried that the vulgar woman would not be loved by the Tang Duke. Princess Hal is the most beautiful woman in the Ashina family, as beautiful as snow, I hope that the Tang Duke will appreciate such intentions and give the Ashina women the glory of serving!"

Li Tai had heard Shi Ning mention this matter, but he didn't care about it himself, and when he heard Meng Yehu talk about it again, he nodded and smiled after a little silence: "Wuzun Khan can keep his covenant and send troops to help in the war, which is enough to show his sincerity, and it is also very gratifying that he even has a gift. I am not a person who is obsessed with beauty, and since the Khan of Wuzun has given me a woman to please me, I should laugh at it, but I am disrespectful."

In the exchange and interaction of steppe forces such as the Turks, harmony is indeed a good way to enhance the sense of closeness and tacit understanding between the two sides. It's just that the attitude of the wooden pole Khan was too arrogant and domineering before, and the demands he put forward were also intolerable to Li Tai, of course he had to do it.

Now Wuzun Khan's attitude is what normal communication should look like, and there is no strong attitude to ask Li Tai to treat him as a wife, Li Tai naturally does not resist such a request, accepting a Turkic woman is nothing more than adding a pair of chopsticks to the house, and there is no need to care too much about the posture.

Meng Yehu couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard Tang Gong's laughter, and then praised the princess who came to kiss him, which made Li Tai look forward to it for a while.

Because of this topic, Li Tai was not able to discuss the issue of mutual market between them in depth, so he simply explained the matters related to the negotiation between him after Wei Dizhi, and of course had to send an envoy to the Turkic Khan's tent if necessary to finalize a complete business plan.

Although the Turks did not ask Li Tai to take the woman of the Ashina family as the main room, the necessary respect still had to be given, and Li Tai did not directly ask Meng Yehu to send people to his bedroom, but asked the other party to send the princess to Shangyang Palace first, and then choose an auspicious day and then include her in the harem.

Next, he stayed in Chang'an for two more days, and saw that the military market was running well, so he entered the palace to bid farewell to the emperor and returned to the overlord again.

When he returned to Shangyang Palace, Meng Yehu came to invite him again, and Li Tai returned to the house first to inform the lady of the matter. To be honest, he was also a little embarrassed in his heart, the lady had just given birth to his second son, and before he was confined, he was going to lead a woman to his home again, which was a proper scumbag. However, in his position, sometimes being a scumbag is also a responsibility that cannot be shirked.

Miao Yin doesn't care much about this, now she has the mentality of a big woman, and she won't be too emotional about people and things, when she listened to what her husband said, she smiled and said: "Turkic women are not common in Guanzhong,

The concubine was also curious about what this snow-white Turkic princess looked like."

With the lady's consent, Li Tai sent the palace staff to the Shangyang Palace pavilion where the Turkic princess was housed, and welcomed the princess to the inner mansion. It's just that when this woman was introduced into the inner mansion, he couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.

This Turkic princess is really delicate and moving, not the appearance of ordinary Turkic people, but the appearance of a white person in Central Asia, with a fair and delicate complexion, exquisite and three-dimensional facial features, big eyes, glowing blue, and always a little shy when looking at people, which makes people can't help but feel pity. No wonder that Meng Yehu boasted that this was the most beautiful woman in Ashina's family, which was indeed unforgettable at first sight.

But the problem is that this princess is only in her early tens, and she is even younger than when Miaoyin married Li Tai, and she doesn't understand Chinese at all, so it is difficult to communicate. It is not so much that Li Tai has added another concubine, but that he has added another beautiful ornament to the house that can walk and move.
