Chapter 118

The mentality of the envoys from various countries staying in Chang'an City has almost collapsed these days.

What they have experienced in the past few days has given them emotional stimulation, which is even more ups and downs than riding a roller coaster.

On the first day, I met my benefactor when I went out, and the kind fellow villagers solved their most troublesome problems.

The next day, I went out and walked around, and found that the Datang people had changed, and their treatment in the shop was equal to that of the Datang people.

It's just that the benefactor has completely become the enemy.Fellow villagers see fellow villagers, you didn't discuss it if you cheated to death.The rage in my heart has nowhere to vent, and I can only vent my anger on those deceptive glass products.

On the third day, I went to the street again, wanting to buy some colored glaze products, but I didn't expect that I and others would become a joke in the eyes of Datang people.

No, today is the fourth day.They were kicked out again by Honglu Temple.

Li Cha and Li Shimin didn't even bother to find an excuse, Honglu Temple was going to be cleaned again today.

The helpless envoys from various countries were once again forced to go to the streets of Chang'an City.

But the envoys from various countries have run out of money.I spent all the money in the past few days, and the rest is the travel expenses to go back, so I can't spend any more.

Now the envoys of many countries are really wandering around.

Huh?They suddenly discovered a problem, as long as they don't enter the Liuli shop, they will once again be warmly received by the shopkeepers of the shops.

That's pretty good, then I just don't go into Liulidian.It is also good to learn about all kinds of novelty things in Chang'an City.

An envoy from Tuyuhun wandered around and came to a shop selling briquette stoves.

As soon as you walk in, you are greeted warmly by the staff.

"Dear guest, take a look at the briquette stove. Our stove, equipped with special briquette, will never run out of smoke. The firepower is still strong, and it can be used for cooking in normal times and heating in winter. One only costs three pennies, and you can buy it. Absolutely no loss."

The honeycomb coal stove sold to the people of Datang for 150 ren a piece has directly increased by [-] times. This is simply killing people without paying for their lives.

If people in the college find out, this briquette stove shop will definitely not be able to continue.

"Guests please come inside, it's so cold outside, welcome to enter the store to experience the usefulness of this briquette stove for yourself."

"Guest, try it. Is the temperature inside the house much warmer than outside? You are looking at the fire. When you are free in winter, you can roast lamb and drink a little wine. Just think about how comfortable it is."

The guys in the briquette stove shop tried their best to promote the products in their shop.

But they didn't realize that the Tuyuhun envoy didn't hear what he was saying at all.

His eyes were fixed on the briquette stove in front of him.

"Dude, take a good look at my outfit, are you sure you can sell me this coal stove?"

Tuyuhun's envoy asked in a low voice.

"I know, I see that you are dressed either from the plateau or from the grasslands. As for the people from the desert, I haven't seen them before. What's wrong?"

There was a weird smile on the corner of the boy's mouth.

"Dude, do you understand? This is iron, ironware. If you want to sell me a foreigner, you won't be afraid of beheading. Forget it, I'll go, so I won't cause you any trouble."

The envoy of Tuyuhun shook his head and walked out of the shop.

Datang clearly stipulates that no one is allowed to sell ironware to foreigners, and one will kill the other.

"Guests, please stop. I know you are a foreigner, and I also know that the Tang Dynasty does not allow ironware to be sold to foreigners. But this briquette stove is special."

"Your country is also a vassal state of my Tang Dynasty, and your people are also my citizens of the Tang Dynasty. The emperor of the Tang Dynasty lamented that many people outside the country would freeze to death every winter. Out of kindness, we allowed this Honeycomb coal stoves are sold overseas.”

"I, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, have always firmly believed that kindness can affect the world. Naturally, it can warm your hearts. Even if these honeycomb coal stoves come to your country, your benevolent ruler will not use the things that save the lives of the people to make weapons, and turn them against us. Don's. Don't you think so?"

"That's for sure. We certainly wouldn't do that."

Upon hearing this, the envoy of Tuyuhun hurriedly assured him.

But he didn't notice the weird smile on the corner of the boy's mouth.

"Is it really okay to sell them to me? Can I really take them back to Tuyuhun?"

The Tuyuhun envoy was still worried, and asked again.There was infinite hope in that tone.

In fact, he was just looking for comfort for himself, as long as the little guy in front of him could give him an affirmative answer, he would definitely buy it.

Such a large briquette furnace can completely make five scimitars.Make hundreds of arrows.

Are they short of soldiers in Tuyuhun?No, whether it is a plateau or a grassland, most of them do not make a living by farming. It can be said that everyone is a born warrior.

What they lack are weapons.They can pull up an army of as many people as there are weapons.

If they can buy a large number of these briquette stoves made of iron, then even if they don't fight against Datang, they can completely replace the previous Tubo, unify the plateau, and even continue westward, hitting the grassland, and hitting the other side of the desert. side.

Thinking about it, the Tuyuhun envoy suddenly became excited.

"It's really no problem. You can rest assured about this."

The boy said with a smile.Seeing the excited appearance of the Tuyuhun envoy, the boy knew that the deal was about to be completed.

"Then how much can I buy at most?"

The Tuyuhun envoy asked.

"You can bring as much as you want. Just now, the elder Xue Yantuo ordered 1 briquette stoves from us."

The boy continued to answer with a smile.

"Really?" The Tuyuhun envoy couldn't believe this number.

"Really. Honorable guest, look here. If you know the characters of the Tang Dynasty, you won't have any doubts after reading this."

The boy pointed to a piece of paper hanging on the wall and said.

The envoy of Tuyuhun followed the boy's finger and saw that it read:

"The emperor of the Tang Dynasty was merciful and allowed the briquette stoves to be sold outside the Tang Dynasty to relieve the suffering of the people outside the country. The quantity is not limited."

At the end is also stamped with the Great Seal of the Great Tang Emperor.

"My dear guest, you can rest assured now. This big seal cannot be forged by us."

The boy asked with a smile.

"Don't worry, don't worry. Xue Yantuo bought 1, so can I buy [-]?"

The Tuyuhun envoy asked cautiously.

"Yes, yes, but [-] will cost [-] guan. You brought so much money to the Tang Dynasty to pay homage?"

the boy asked suspiciously.

"Ah? I forgot, I have no money. But it is impossible for Xue Yantuo to have 1 pennies, even if they go back to get it, it will be too late. How can they buy [-] pennies?"

The Tuyuhun envoy was in a hurry, this was his hope of getting promoted and making a fortune, and unifying the plateau.

This can only be watched, but he can't buy it, can he not be in a hurry?

"Oh, I said that it is impossible for you to bring so much money. Xue Yantuo traded cattle, sheep, and war horses."

"They brought cattle, sheep, and war horses to the border between the two countries. We will have someone to inspect them. According to the valuation, we will give you a briquette stove of the same value."

The boy explained to the Tuyuhun envoy.

"They Xue Yantuo can do it, so can we Tuyuhun. We can also trade cattle, sheep, and war horses."

The Tuyuhun envoy said hastily.

"Well, anyway, when the time comes, these cattle, sheep, and war horses, we can also exchange them for money."

"This is the exchange details listed by our big shopkeeper. You can see if it is suitable for you. The big shopkeeper said no counter-offering. If you think you can change it, we will change it. If you can't change it, we won't force it."

The boy took out a sheet of cattle and sheep, and handed it to the Tuyuhun envoy the details of exchanging war horses for briquette stoves.

The Tuyuhun envoy carefully watched the detailed rules above.

A piece of paper weighs a thousand catties.

For the Tuyuhun envoy, this piece of paper carried their hope of unifying the plateau after Tuyuhun became Tubo.

The envoy of Tuyuhun carefully checked the contents of this paper.I saw it written in detail on the paper:

The price of a first-class war horse is nine guan, and it can be exchanged for three briquette stoves.

A medium warhorse, the price is six guan, and it can be exchanged for two briquette stoves.

Inferior bad horses cost half the price, two horses can be exchanged for a briquette stove.

Pony calves, the price is half a penny, six horses can be exchanged for a briquette stove.

Adult strong cattle, the price is three times, and can be exchanged for a briquette stove.

Small calves, the price is half a penny, six can be exchanged for a briquette stove.

Adult sheep cost half a penny, and six sheep can be exchanged for a briquette stove.

Old horses, old cows, and lambs are not exchangeable.

The envoy of Tuyuhun thought in his heart, this is great, not a loss at all.

Not to mention anything else, exchange [-] cattle for [-] briquette stoves.That must be a big profit.Are all the Tang Dynasty people fools in doing business?
This is a weapon that can pull up an army of [-].With these weapons, they can unify that plateau.
