Chapter 139

"The caravan sent to the Huns, my son has actually already considered it!"

Ying Changsheng Chaozheng brother said.

He is, indeed, already well.

Even, a candidate has been found.

This person is none other than the Great Qin Empire, a big businessman as famous as Ba Qing.

His name is Wu Shiluo.

Wang Jian had mentioned this person to Ying Changsheng before.

For this person, Ying Changsheng is somewhat understood.

This person can go in and out on the grassland, and trade cattle and sheep with the Huns.

Of course, you can also go to the Huns and sell wine.

These days, speaking of it.

There are really not many things that Daqin can trade with the Xiongnu.

The Huns need the iron tools of Daqin and the excellent equipment of Daqin.

However, the problem is that Da Qin is not very good at selling this thing.

the reason is simple.

This thing is related to the case of the country.

It's like a hereafter.

No country will sell the latest modern weapons that they have researched.

For Daqin.

Excellent iron preparations and excellent armor are a major reason for Daqin to maintain a strong military.

Although, some are only weapons.

However, the advantages of weapons and equipment are always stronger than the disadvantages, right?
In this situation.

Daqin definitely would not sell weapons to the Huns, not even iron or bronze wares.

As for the tea trade and porcelain trade that gradually prospered in the northern trade in later generations?

Well, this thing has not even developed in Da Qin yet.

Today, Da Qin mainly uses utensils.

Except that it is bronze.

The rest is lacquerware!

Bronze ware is a product of the old age.

It is from the time of Xia, Shang and Zhou.

It has been a mainstream appliance that has been handed down.

This thing represents nobility and luxury.

The identity and status of the nobles.

And lacquerware.

It was during the Warring States Period after the Spring and Autumn Period, as some lower-class people became wealthy, coupled with the development of technology.

The extremely exquisite lacquerware with a large number of exquisite patterns painted on it has also entered people's field of vision.

Gradually replace people's favorite.

Incarnate as a mainstream appliance.

However, whether it is lacquerware or bronze ware, the Huns probably would not use it.

Lacquerware is too flashy.

Compared with those who like to use human skulls to make utensils, lacquerware is really difficult, so it is really difficult for them to like it, and it is really difficult for them to buy and use it in large quantities.

And the bronze ware?
Daqin will never sell it!

After melting bronze, weapons can be made.

Although, bronze ware is much worse than iron ware.

But even so, Da Qin would not sell it.

As for the tea trade in later generations?

That's even more impossible!
The current Great Qin Empire.

Not without tea.

In fact, the history of tea in China is still very long.

It's just that tea leaves are only used as a kind of medicinal material at the moment.

The style of drinking tea has not yet become popular in China.

There are not so many tea trees that can be picked. Under such circumstances, do you want to sell tea to the Xiongnu?

Simply delusional.

Under such circumstances, wine is the perfect trade product.

This thing is delicious, not to mention.

It can also be used to keep out the cold when the cold winter comes on the grassland.

Moreover, it can also paralyze people's nerves.

For the Huns, it couldn't be better.

At this moment, only Ying Changsheng was seen, and Brother Chaozheng said with a smile.

"Royal father, it's enough for Wuzhiluo to travel to and from the grassland and then sell wine?"

"Wu Shiluo?"

Hearing Ying Changsheng mention this name, Ying Zheng's eyes lit up instantly, thinking of this famous businessman in Daqin.

Wushi Luo, Ying Zheng certainly understands.

This person once used his own means to obtain some precious war horses for Daqin trade.

Therefore, Yingzheng had once conferred this person as the emperor.

All I saw was that Ying Zheng slapped his thigh fiercely and said.

"Then send Wu Shiluo to trade in the past. However, I am still a little worried. Selling wine is a good thing. If you can, you can buy the cattle and sheep that my Daqin needs. As for the horses? Let's not buy them. This time, Daqin , enough horses have been seized from the Xiongnu, if there are more, they will not be able to support them..."

Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Ying Changsheng nodded slightly.

Daqin, indeed, has no shortage of horses.

Well, more than 30 high-quality war horses were seized in one go.

And, successfully defeated the Huns in the north.

Brother Zheng has now asked Meng Tian to keep 10,000+ horses in the Hetao area next to the Great Wall, and then use them to build a horse farm and raise horses himself.

After all, horses are in the future for quite some time.

They are all indispensable strategic resources on the battlefield.

Therefore, Daqin cannot rely on buying horses to maintain its own cavalry.

The only way is to raise horses by yourself!

Therefore, half of the captured horses were added to the army.

Used to arm up, one hundred thousand cavalry.

The rest were all kept by Brother Zheng to be used as stallions.

With these horses, Daqin will be able to raise and breed horses by himself in the future, and there is no need to import them from the Xiongnu.

Under such circumstances, Yingzheng naturally did not need Wuzhiluo to exchange wine for the horses of the Huns.

Of course, in this case, the Huns may not agree - they are also aware of the importance of war horses, and they are not willing to sell horses to Daqin.

Of course, if it's cattle and sheep, then that's fine.

Because there are too many cattle and sheep on the grassland, it is impossible to eat them all.

It can be used to exchange for wine, which is perfect!

"It's natural to let Wu Shiluo sell wine, and the Huns will probably agree. However, I ask you, if we sell wine, there are a lot of Huns. Can you provide enough wine?"

"Of course my son can do it!"

Ying Changsheng said without thinking.

"Sweet potatoes are worthless, and they are perfect for brewing wine. I just need to build a few more cooking pots!"

"By the way, father, the Huns are not the only barbarians in the north. We can also go to Donghu to sell wine!"

"Ok!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng nodded slightly.

"Leave this matter to Wu Shiluo later!"

"In addition to asking him to handle this matter, according to what you said, let him put some people from the imperial court in the caravan, explore the customs and customs on the grassland along the way, and draw a map..."

Ying Zheng said.

Then, he frowned again.

"However, there are exactly the same scenes everywhere on the grassland. Moreover, there is no city or village for reference. It is not easy to distinguish the southeast from the northwest. Do you have any solution?"
