The person who sent envoys to the Xiongnu in the Qin Dynasty was none other than Zhao Tuo, who was exchanged by the first emperor from the land of Baiyue.

This person is still very talented, otherwise he would not have taken the opportunity to become independent in the time of Qin's civil strife.

Qin Shihuang also felt that as long as he was there, no matter how ambitious people were, they would be suppressed by him.

As for Ren Xiao, now his body is not as good as before.

After returning to Xianyang, Qin Shihuang praised him and let him go home to recuperate.

Ren Xiao was not Wang Ben, so the First Emperor did not take him to ask Su Tian for treatment.

In Su Tian's mouth, it was he who had 300,000 troops, and even if he was seriously ill, he would not let Zhao Tuo lead his troops back to fight the rebellion.

If it hadn't happened at this time, Qin Shihuang didn't plan to let him die.

And the descendants of Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo, Qin Shi Huang, also ranked last on the appointment list.

The fact that the Huns were sent as an envoy was actually very dangerous.

After all, he was asked to separate the father and son of Touman and Mo Dun, and if he was not careful, he would have been buried in the north of the desert.

From this, it can be seen that the First Emperor had other thoughts about Zhao Tuo.

Following the guide of the Hu people, Zhao Tuo led his team to walk for more than two months before finding out the location of the Xiongnu royal court.

I do not know how many times I have greeted the ancestors of the Huns. After all, the nomads live in no fixed place, and it is too difficult to find them.

When he saw Touman, Zhao Tuo had already been tortured by the sandstorm in Mobei.

"Da Qin is not ready to fight?"

Touman was surprised when he heard the report from his subordinates that it was the envoy of the Qin Dynasty who brought gifts to the peace talks.

"Yes, Shanyu, the ambassador of Daqin hopes to establish a market with us and do some business with each other."

After living for so many years, this is the first time I heard that the Han people are willing to do business with the Hu people.

Before that, whether it was Zhao State or Qin Dynasty.

The rulers are mainly war oriented, they have never had peace talks, let alone do business on their own initiative.

The life of the Huns was very hard, and their herdsmen were usually reluctant to eat meat and lived on cheese, barley and wild vegetables.

Therefore, I am very envious of the Qin people in the south, who have food to eat.

In private, he used sheepskin to exchange food with the Qin people.

"We Huns, what are the things that Qin people can see?"

Touman is not stupid. He said that we are so poor that we are peeing blood. You, Qin Shihuang, are still planning to do business with us?

"This... subordinates don't know, but they brought a lot of good things, including salt, bronze, medicinal materials and other items that we are in desperate need."

The Huns who came to report the letter said greedily.

"Oh? That one brings them!"

Touman Shanyu heard that he didn't come empty-handed, and immediately became interested.

...

In less than half a day, Zhao Tuo, led by the Xiongnu soldiers, found the Xiongnu royal court hidden in the corner.

A slightly larger tent can be regarded as a royal court. After Zhao Tuo came in and introduced each other with Touman Shanyu, Touman asked impatiently:

"I've heard for a long time that the first emperor Wen Tao and martial arts, the Central Plains area is even more vast and rich, what do you think of the Xiongnu?"

Not knowing the other party's intention, Touman didn't think Qin Shihuang had any good intentions.

Moreover, it was only in the past two years that he took the land of the Hetao from himself and built the Great Wall, which made Touman not give Zhao Tuo a good look.

"Although my Daqin is large, there are still things that are lacking, so Your Majesty specially sent me to discuss with Shanyu peace."

"After communicating with each other, the Huns can also become prosperous, and the herdsmen don't have to starve."

"Wouldn't it be great if both sides put aside their fights and don't have to fight and kill."

Looking at Touman Shanyu's frowning frown, Zhao Tuo said directly without giving up:

"My Daqin can use grain, salt, cloth and other daily necessities to exchange oil, wool, cheese, kumiss and other items with the herdsmen."

Hearing Zhao Tuo say this, Touman's eyes widened in shock.

The car looked at Zhao Guo and other Qin envoys in disbelief, as if something was wrong with his ears!

"You... say it again? Use food, salt and clothes for ours?"

Touman, like the ministers on both sides, looked at each other, feeling that he was dreaming.

Grease is available as long as the sheep is killed. It has not been stored before, but it is not difficult.

Cheese and kumiss, isn't that just water? Squeeze it out?

The Huns don't want to eat anything they can get with a little effort.

What does wool mean? Emperor Qin's brain is rusted?

A sheep's wool grows faster than grass, isn't that how much it takes?

Can this thing be exchanged for food and salt?

Not to mention cheese and kumiss, these are also things that are worthless if you want to make them.

Touman fiercely incited a subordinate beside him, and only after hearing the screams of the other party and the feeling of feedback from his hand, did he confirm that it was not a dream.

Zhao Tuo's face was expressionless, but he actually sneered inside and repeated it.

He also told Touman that Qin Shihuang first demarcated the four counties as the initial trading location, and then opened a few more square markets in the future.

And he roughly talked about the amount of the exchange, which was very fair. Touman even felt that Qin Shihuang had suffered a big loss.

After hearing it, the surrounding Huns went crazy with joy. As long as they could keep going, their clansmen would never say anything.

"That... Can you tell me what Da Qin wants these worthless things to do?"

After Touman was happy, he asked very curiously.

Zhao Tuo just told Touman what he knew, and even said that most of it was because of Immortal Master Su Tian.

Fairy?

Several Xiongnu ministers and Touman were shocked when they heard it, thinking that this should be the immortal of the Xiongnu, right?

Otherwise, how could the Huns take such a big advantage?

Zhao Tuo already knew that oil can make soap and soap.

Qin Shihuang gave him a piece of soap to use, and after bathing, the fragrant and smooth feeling was very wonderful.

The biggest role of cheese is to supplement calcium, and it is also very nutritious, so it will be given priority to the army of the Qin Dynasty.

Kumiss is just an additional condition, which can be regarded as reassuring the Huns, because they only have this shot.

As for wool... Qin Shi Huang told Zhao Tuo that this was the most useful weapon.

But it didn't explain in detail what it was for.

In fact, all this about Fangshi is just an economic war formulated by Su Tian for Qin Shi Huang to control the Huns.

The Huns produced cheap goods with the same raw materials, and the Qin Dynasty used these deep-processed goods to make them rich.

Once the Huns relied on these cheap items for a long time to survive, they would gradually be domesticated by the Qin in their consciousness.

In less than three or five years, when they will take up arms and fight against Da Qin.

These pastoralists will weigh up what it means to lose their existing lives.

However, the market trading is limited to this!

The Qin Dynasty also did not intend to directly exchange the cattle, sheep and horses of the Huns.

The Huns did not dare to mention the iron weapons that were exchanged for Da Qin.

Both sides have their own plans, but both have admitted to the peace talks.

Zhao Tuo brought all kinds of goods from Xianyang as gifts to Touman.

The Huns also gave a hundred cows as a gift in return.

After doing such a big business, Touman naturally had to be more enthusiastic and insisted on keeping Zhao Tuo here for a longer period of time.

However, Zhao Tuo originally wanted to find someone to talk to Touman about Modun alone when no one was there. That was the key to coming here.

Even if Zhao Tuo wanted to go back immediately, he couldn't refuse to be too obvious.

Enduring bitterness, he accepted the four women that Touman stuffed into his tent...

Well, the Huns never bathe, that smell makes Zhao Tuo want to die...
