When Asba heard this request, his face was full of sadness, big brother, what made you think this matter is so simple, it sounds like eating and drinking water!

That is a war horse. No matter how stupid the Turks are, they would not sell them in large quantities to the Tang Dynasty. What's more, even if they were lucky enough to buy a few horses and escaped the siege and interception of the Turks, they might not be able to keep them after entering the customs. The bandit family, how can they bear it when they see a caravan war horse?

Besides, this shopkeeper Zhang, or Mr. Zhang, has such a big appetite. According to their transaction price of three thousand glazed clover balls, that is [-] guan. How many war horses do you have to buy? How is this kind of transaction possible? Is it something a small businessman like him can take over?

To be honest, the conditions of this shopkeeper Xiao Zhang are really attractive, and Asba really wants to climb this thigh, but he knows that if he doesn't make it clear, if he agrees easily but fails to do it, he may end up in trouble. Time to offend even more severely.

Thinking of this, Asba took a deep breath and said sincerely,

"Honorable shopkeeper Xiao Zhang, Asba salutes you. Your generosity is wider than the sky, but I have to refuse you, because my ability is limited, and I really can't buy war horses from outside the territory!"

Zhang Nuo looked at Aspar's apologetic expression and nodded, and the scene fell into silence for an instant.

Li Shimin and the others didn't speak. They knew how terrifying the horseshoes and stirrups Zhang Nuo made were, and they also knew how much this shopkeeper misses the cavalry.

So, it's better for them to watch the show quietly now!

Zhang Nuo is also sighing at the moment, it seems that there is still no way out, he originally thought that these Western Region merchants are not afraid of death, as long as there are profits, they can create some trade routes that did not exist before, and secretly bring in war horses, as long as they can If he entered the Datang area, he would be able to think of a way.

But now with Asbana's sincere refusal, he knew that this move might not work.

In fact, Lao Li and the others should have seen it. In fact, his worst plan was to buy decommissioned horses with damaged hooves from the Western Regions, and then re-service after shoeing the horses.

But generally, war horses that can persist until their hoof armor is worn out will actually have some other minor problems. After all, the environment that war horses face is completely different from that of ordinary horses.

But now there is no need to worry about it. I can only honestly think about how to get the retired war horse back into service. Don't think about other things, there is no hope.

Thinking of this, Zhang Nuo finally spoke,

"Asba, my friend, if I want you to buy war horses from outside the territory, instead of normal-use war horses, what about those horses whose hooves are worn out and decommissioned, can you buy them back?"

Hearing that Zhang Nuo finally spoke, Asba's heart suddenly relaxed, but after carefully thinking about what the shopkeeper said, Asba suddenly felt bad again.

Are you in a fight with a horse?Why is it still a war horse?

But if you think about it more carefully, retired war horse?

Of course Asba knew that he was also from a nomadic people, so he naturally knew that there were a lot of war horses with worn out hoofs that had to be retired, but did this shopkeeper Xiao Zhang want to use these horses for breeding?

But breeding doesn't cost that much. Although he doesn't know how much a retired warhorse costs, he knows that if all [-] horses are sold, the amount will be quite scary.

"Honorable Shopkeeper Zhang, there have been very few people who buy and trade retired horses, but since you have asked, Asba is naturally willing to grant your wish, but there are two problems!"

When Zhang Nuo heard that Asba did not refuse immediately, he was immediately excited, and hurriedly said,

"You said, see if I can solve it, don't worry, your benefits are indispensable, as long as you can exchange this money for a war horse, when you come back, I will guarantee you to wear an official uniform!"

Hearing that as long as the job is done, you can put on the official uniform, Asbad suddenly became short of breath. Oh my god, even though when I first met this shopkeeper, he said that he hoped to get Official, I didn't expect this day to come so soon.

Don't think that only Datang admires being an official. In fact, it's the same everywhere. As long as you become an official, it means a change in status and class. Even the lowest officials are not comparable to ordinary people.

Li Shimin and the others didn't have the slightest intention to object to this obvious private awarding of official titles, even if it happened right under their noses. Instead, they felt that it was very appropriate.

They know the power of cavalry all too well. As long as this merchant from the Western Regions can really bring back a batch of retired war horses, he is only an official, not a real job. , is hardly worth mentioning.

Asba used his years of experience in business to force himself to calm down. He knew that his opportunity had come, and it was up to him how to grasp it.

After thinking about it, he said seriously,

"Two difficulties, honorable shopkeeper Zhang, the first one is that if all your purchases are exchanged for retired warhorses, it will be difficult to make up the amount!"

"Although I have never bought or asked how much this kind of retired war horse costs, but I think it is enough to buy a lot even with some money!"

"But because the Turks and other nomads don't care about some retired war horses at all, a tribe actually doesn't have many retired war horses!"

"Then it will take quite a few tribes to come together, and there's no guarantee!"

Zhang Nuo was overjoyed when he heard this, this is wool, of course he knew that a tribe couldn't get it all together, a large Turkic tribe actually had less than [-] troops.

Then one can imagine the retired war horses that can survive!

But it doesn't matter, as long as it can be obtained, anyway, in Zhang Nuo's view, this kind of troublesome matter should be solved by Asba. Tens of thousands of horses!

Seeing that Zhang Nuo was silent, Asba continued,

"The second question is that such a large number of war horses enter the customs, even if they are retired war horses, I am afraid they will get into trouble! After all, we are just businessmen!"

When Zhang Nuo heard that his heart was completely in his stomach, he waved his hand with a smile and said very proudly,

"Asba, don't worry, I can solve your two difficulties!"

Chapter 238 Completely Dealing with the War Horse

Zhang Nuo first looked at Lao Li and the others who were sitting on the side. Seeing that no one objected, especially when Lao Li looked calm, Zhang Nuo had confidence in his mind. It seemed that Lao Li had no objection, so it would be fine. up.

Although I had already discussed the paperwork with Lao Li when I got the stirrups and horseshoes out, but this is not a matter between the two families after all, and it involves the government, so who dares to guarantee it.

But since Lao Li has not spoken out against it now, it proves that Lao Li has a solid foundation in his heart, so don't worry about it!

Zhang Nuo relaxed, looked at Asba with a smile and said,

"The acquisition of retired war horses is up to you to solve by yourself, but I will handle the paperwork for you!"

"As long as you enter the territory of the Tang Dynasty, I guarantee that no one will dare to take my war horse away in a fair manner!"

Hearing this, Asba felt relieved. He would have to slowly figure out a solution to the acquisition issue. He just brought it up just to show his hard work. As for other issues after entering the country?

Just kidding, it's not the first time for him, Asba, to take this trade route. The goods he trades on weekdays are very valuable in themselves. If it wasn't for the big commotion this time, he could even get in without paperwork.
