Ni Mi was trapped in thinking.

Trade with the Han Dynasty was arguing for the first time in the Western Regions.

Without it, the profit is just big!

The silk, iron and even salt of the Han Dynasty were all hard currency in the Western Regions.

But……

In the past, what people used to trade with Han were usually gold, silver and jade.

Few people are willing, or have the courage to trade livestock and fur with Han.

Because, that will inevitably lead to ruthless revenge from the Huns!

That is, Wusun, relying on its large size, occasionally plays with such a trade model.

Even so, I didn't dare to do it too obviously.

so……

Ni Mi knew that this was the Han Dynasty's people forcing themselves to take sides.

Choose the Huns or the Han Dynasty?

This makes me feel a little confused and uncomfortable.

The Han Dynasty was a bit far away for Wusun.

From Juyan to Wusun, it will be at least three thousand miles!

However, the Xiongnu's Rizhu King's Chronicle stood directly at the gate of Wusun.

After thinking for a while, Ni Mi asked tentatively: "The transport of livestock is too far away. I am worried about the journey, and many casualties..."

"How about exchanging fur for your country's horseshoes?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yue laughed and nodded, "Yes! China never forces people to do anything!"

Livestock, especially Wusun horses, which are specialized in Wusun, are of course very much wanted by the Han Dynasty.

Introducing Wusun horses and improving local horse breeds is a national policy.

However, for Zhang Yue, Wusun horses are not necessary.

Dayuan horses can also play a role!

Besides...

In Zhang Yue's view, the cavalry era is likely to soon enter dusk.

because……

As long as the workshop garden continues to develop according to the class, it is likely that it will be able to produce suitable steel in less than ten years.

And click out the technology tree of the file and boring machine.

By then...

It is an era of queuing and shooting. Cavalry will become auxiliary troops and become flank coverers of infantry.

On the contrary, China's demand for resources such as fur will increase day by day!

Ni Mi was shocked by Zhang Yue's generousness, but the nomadic peoples had no gratitude.

This is especially true in Wusun.

Otherwise, Nimi would not have appeared here, but instead took his troops to help his uncle Shanyu fight.

Even the country of Wusun does not exist.

It was built by the Huns' support and help.

Most of the first generation of Kunmo's personal guards, who were even half of them, were distributed to his subordinates according to the tradition of the people who led the bow after the death of Maodun Shanyu.

The territory of Wusun was rewarded by Lie Jiaomi and his subordinates after he defeated Yuezhi by Lao Shangshanyu.

Therefore, the relationship between Wusun and the Xiongnu is a brother, or at least a cousin.

However, when it was time to betray, Lie Jiaomi never blinked.

Therefore, Ni Mi immediately knew that he should quickly finalize the details of the trade so that the Han Dynasty would not regret it.

"Your official, how do you trade these fur and hooves?" he asked almost impatiently.

Zhang Yue smiled and shook his head slightly in his heart.

"It is better to attack Rongdi and be greedy if he has no relatives..."

"The ancients really didn't deceive me!"

But on the surface, he was very kind. He whispered: "If your country wants, I will write to my Lord, the Holy Emperor, and let your country get fur..."

"And it will not cause your country to suffer losses. All kinds of leather products are determined by the price of the Juyan market flat-stock business!"

Ni Mi listened, nodded, extremely satisfied.

He knew the Han Dynasty's pacification system, and even everyone in the Western Regions knew about it.

Because everyone is extremely eager for their own business trips and can enjoy the treatment of ordinary merchants in the Han Dynasty.

Unfortunately, the arrogant Han Dynasty people rejected all the demands of Pingjia from non-Han merchants, resulting in many people being able to sell goods to those second-dea dealers at low prices outside Yumen Pass.

Now, the Han Dynasty is actually willing to open up this preferential treatment for its own merchants to Wusun.

How unhappy Ni Mi?

He even immediately thought that Wusun business travelers could harvest all the leather from other regions and sell them to Han people.

Also be a second-trafficking dealer!

The profits are very large.

Just listened to Zhang Yue and said, "In addition, our country has not limited to the purchase of your country's wool..."

"One stone of wool, a horseshoe is tentatively required..."

Ni Mi listened to her eyes and immediately asked, "How much is a stone?"

"One hundred and twenty kilograms..." Zhang Yue explained: "It's the weight of the golden cakes in his hands of 120 noble people!"

There is no way. On this earth, except for the Han literati and the Roman nobles in Europe, the mathematical level of other kingdoms/city-states is terrible!

Tell me, you may not believe it.

The Huns learned the skill of testing population sixty years ago, and were taught by the great traitors.

As a result, the Han-Hungary War broke out, and a large number of surrendered ministers and surrendered generals gathered in the Xiongnu royal court.

Zhao Xin, Wei Lu, and Li Ling were all named kings one after another and married the daughter or sisters of Shanyu.

Therefore, the Han Dynasty's mathematical masterpiece "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" was introduced to the Huns, and the mathematical level of the Huns immediately improved by leaps and bounds.

However……

As far as Zhang Yue knew, the Huns regarded this knowledge as a forbidden corpse.

Except for the Twin Clan, other clans are prohibited from learning, holding, and hiding.

It is called "The Great Huns": This is the national condition of our country. The Han people's things are not suitable for the Great Huns. They will make our warriors weak and make our nobles cowardly!

Therefore, except for the royal family and the surrendered ministers of the Han Dynasty, the mathematical level of other nobles of the Huns was still on the same track.

Zhao Chongguo told Zhang Yue a joke about the Huns. The Huns were near Junji Mountain. There was a tribe named Qiequ. The chief of the tribe gave birth to a genius son. At the age of eighteen, he could clearly see the number of 1,321 males in the entire tribe!

When the Shanyu heard this, he was very happy and conquered the Shanyu court and appointed him as the Zuo Dadun, who was responsible for counting the population and livestock of the royal court.

This joke may be a bit exaggerated, but it can also explain the mathematical ability of the Huns.

Even if the Huns were like this, the mathematical calculation ability of the Wusun people would probably have to be a big question mark.

Zhang Yue seriously doubted whether the little Kunmo in front of him had the ability to add, subtract, multiply and divide within one hundred!

Therefore, we can only explain it to him in detail as much as possible.

There is no way, wool sweaters are related to the future!

After hearing this, Ni Mi exclaimed: "It actually takes so much wool to change to a hoof?"

"Your country is too sluggish about wool..."

"So many wool is enough to weave dozens of brown cloth, and even several pieces of cloth!"

"Brown cloth?" Zhang Yue asked in confusion, then reacted.

At this time, the original simple wool textile industry had already developed.

Women of the nomadic peoples in the Western Regions and Musou South and Musou North were inspired by the ancient spinning techniques in China, spinning wool and horse wool into yarn to make brown cloth worn by civilians and cloth worn by nobles.

These wool cloths later flowed into northern China, becoming one of the sources of winter cold-proof fabrics for northern residents.

The most direct evidence is that among the cloth that Emperor Gao once ordered to prohibit merchants from wearing, the name of the cloth was listed among them.

In addition to the original wool textile industry, simple cotton textiles also appeared in the Western Regions at this time.
