    Besides promoting new products, Gong Chuxin did not delay his business.

    During the day, he delivered all this year's grain, iron pots, tea, silk, porcelain and other items.

    The small tribal alliance also sent up the 3,000 horses they had prepared.

    As for how they allocate the money in proportion in the end, that is a matter between themselves.

    The veterans at Habayashiwei are responsible for checking the age, teeth, etc. of the horses. They are all old masters. I dare not say that they are very strict, but they will not buy inferior goods.

    In addition to the reserved horses, the small tribal alliance will also bring out some specialties unique to the west to see if Gong Chuxin can take a fancy to them.

    "It doesn't matter if you can't sell it. Anyway, it's just picked up or robbed, and it doesn't cost any money."

    Usually at this time, every year Leng Yuan and Gong Chuxin would bring more things and buy more of their furs, snow lotus, bullwhip, and wolfberry.

    No matter how much money you make, you must at least maintain a good relationship.

    It can¡¯t just be said that as long as you have a horse, you must also be able to handle other aspects of human relations.

    Anyway, the things purchased by Prince Yi's Mansion are not expensive, and the emperor has given them a special gift of not having to pay taxes every year as a reward for helping them buy horses.

    ¡°When we go back, we can buy some things from the northwest and sell them back. That will make a lot of money.

    In the evening, when Gong Chuxin returned to his yurt from the dinner party, he found that a large wooden bathtub had been placed inside. It had been filled with hot water and the water mist was constantly emitting.

    The two girls from the Zhaleng tribe who accompanied him were gathered around the fire to boil water.

    They need to ensure that Gong Chuxin has hot water to take a bath at all times, and they have to give him a massage and bath later, not just sleeping with him.

    Gong Chuxin took off his clothes, climbed into the wooden tub, soaked in the slightly hot water, and unconsciously let out a comfortable moan.

    After a tiring day, it¡¯s autumn on the grassland, so it¡¯s really enjoyable to take a hot bath!

    A girl from the Zhaleng tribe came over with prepared soap and wanted to give him a bath.

    But Gong Chuxin thought about it and said in Uighur: "You all take off your clothes and come in, let's wash them together!"

    The two girls hesitated for a moment, then remembered that they must obey the orders they received, and nodded in unison.

    When they also came in, the large wooden bathtub seemed a bit narrow.

    But Gong Chuxin didn¡¯t care. While playing with it, he motioned to the two girls to apply soap on himself and him, and then taught them how to rub it.

    Women, no matter their age, are born with a sense of urgency for cleanliness. The two girls just used soap a little and realized the super decontamination function of soap.

    The two women¡¯s eyes lit up, they smiled like silver bells, and they became more and more energetic.

    By the time the three of them came out of the wooden tub, the water in the tub had turned pitch black.

    The two girls smiled sheepishly, but they were even more happy that their bodies were so clean, as if they both had a fresh fragrance.

    But then, when Gong Chuxin took out the floral essential oil and the three of them applied and massaged each other, they felt even more treated like the wives of the big leader.

    It is no exaggeration to say that this night is a wonderful night that the two girls will never forget in their lives.

    So the price was that Gong Chuxin, who had worked so hard yesterday, was squeezed out of all his inventory that night and almost died on their bellies.

    So on the second day, when the sun was almost in the middle of the sky, Gong Chuxin stood up and left the yurt under the service of two girls.

    He originally thought that he was the last to go there, and a group of big leaders must have finished their meal. However, he did not expect that when he went to Huoquba's yurt, he saw that the number of people was half less than yesterday.

    The big leaders who have arrived are eating meat with all their strength, and at the same time there is a kind of joy on their faces.

    When they saw Gong Chuxin, they showed smiles that all men would understand.

    Nearly two quarters of an hour later, all the talents arrived.

    By the time everyone had finished eating, it was almost noon.

    A group of old men felt a little ashamed, but when they recalled the beauty of last night, no one did not miss it, and no one did not want to do it again, twice countless times.

    Now they finally realize how happy the noble officials and emperors of the Central Plains are.p; Whether it is obtaining more cattle, horses and sheep, or absorbing and annexing more small tribes, it will be beneficial to them.

    From his own perspective, Gong Chuxin felt that he could help them. If they made good use of such millions of taels of goods, they would not expand beyond the Uighurs. At most, they would become a medium-sized small overlord - in this area that stretches for thousands of miles.  On the grasslands, apart from the Uighurs, there are at least five or six tribes with a population of two to three hundred thousand.

    By that time, the small tribal alliance needs to consolidate its own strength, so it will increase transactions every year, and Dakang will get more horses every year.

    If not used well, the small tribal alliance will be suppressed at best. After suffering heavy losses, they will become more dependent on Dakang.

    If the worst outcome is that the small tribal alliance is beaten to pieces by the big tribe and has no choice but to accept them, then Dakang can also accept them and let them bring their own horses into the pass to train horses for Dakang.

    As for new trading candidates, it¡¯s not like there aren¡¯t any.

    Aren¡¯t those poor and starving tribes on the western plateau a good new target for expansion?

    Gong Chuxin thought so, but he did not have the power to make a decision.

    But he also has expediency.

    "How about this."

    Gong Chuxin quickly made a decision: "I have more than a thousand pieces of soap, more than a hundred bottles of floral essential oils, more than a thousand rolls of toilet paper, and a hundred packets of sugar I will leave all of these to you. You can take them to various places first.  Go give it a try and see if you can sell it.

    "As for me, I will bring 20,000 more horses back to the country first. Only with so many horses in front of me can our prince be moved and give you the best price.

    In two months, I will come here again. At that time, we will make the final negotiation decision based on the situation of both parties. What do you think, leaders?  "

    A group of big leaders looked at each other.

    Julu Dayong asked: "Can you guarantee that Prince Yi will agree? We don't have many horses to begin with. If the business fails"

    "Buying and selling are not humane." Gong Chuxin said: "Even if I disagree later, these 20,000 horses will all be traded at half price. Next time I come here, I will definitely bring this batch of horses with me.  Something of equal value came over.¡±

    "Happy!"

    Huo Quba slapped the table, "Okay, it's settled!"

    Twenty thousand horses are equivalent to 240,000 taels of silver, which is almost half of the half price of 660,000 taels of silver they requested.

    No matter how you look at it, you can¡¯t suffer any loss!

    Doing business with Prince Yi¡¯s Mansion is a pleasure!

    A group of big leaders behind him were also laughing from ear to ear.

    This group of big leaders themselves come from poor backgrounds and do not pay attention to enjoyment.

    But the four kinds of treasures brought by Gong Chuxin were hard for even them to resist, let alone the big and small leaders of medium and large tribes.

    "Take the things over and buy some cattle, horses, sheep, and even slaves that are already a burden in the winter. They will definitely want it.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT flummox

    As long as our population reaches 200,000 and the number of available fighters reaches 40,000, our self-protection ability will definitely increase greatly.

    When the time comes, whether you continue to develop secretly or simply raise your banner to become a regional hegemon, you have a lot of autonomy!

    ¡­¡­

    Note: Regarding the quantity and price of horses purchased in these chapters, I will say a few words here to give you a better understanding.

    In the third year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1575), Fang Fengshi, the governor of Xuanda, wanted to limit the price of horses in the tribute market in the three towns. The answer given by the Ministry of Household Affairs was, "The Xuanfu will use 18,000 horses as the rate, and the silver will be 120,000 taels; Datong  The rate of ten thousand horses is 70,000 taels of silver; Shanxi uses 6000 horses as the rate, and the silver is 40,000 taels. This is a set rule for compliance." This is converted to 6.7-7 taels per horse.

    In the 19th year of Wanli (1591), Zhong Yuzheng, the frontier officer of the Xuanfu government, wrote another memorial, proposing to determine the number of horses for trade.  120,000 taels, but it has been delivered to 36,000 taels over the years. How long will it last? The total is 185,000 taels of silver." This means that at this time, the number of horses traded in Xuanfu Town was 36,000  Horse, 185,000 taels of silver, total price 5.14 taels per horse.

    In the 40th year of Wanli (1612), the Ming Dynasty's horse sales and horse prices in three towns were: Xuanfu Town's horse sales were 36,000 horses, and horse sales were 185,000 taels; Datong Town's horse sales were 15,500 horses, and horse sales were 185,000 taels;  The price of the horse is 100,000 taels of silver; the amount of horses in Shanxi Town is 6,000, and the price of the horse is 40,000 taels of silver.  The total horse price and silver price in the three towns was 325,000 taels.

    This is a normal transaction, and it is only a transaction between the two countries in the border market. When it is sold to customers in the market, the price should increase by at least 50% or even double.

    Therefore, comparing the price of the horses purchased by Dakang from the small tribal alliance, and the market price of 12 taels of silver per horse in the three northwestern provinces, it should not be an exaggeration.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off out of the Ming Dynasty.

    At the same time, we can also draw an analogy. Dakang¡¯s demand for prairie horses is still endless, and there will never be too much.
