Naturally, Gao Lingfeng hurried to the Empress's bedroom.
Concubine Hua bit her lips lightly.
However, her personal palace maid came over and said,
"Congratulations, Empress."
"What does the empress's happiness have to do with bengong?”
"If the Empress is happy, His Majesty will not stay overnight at the Empress 'place.”
Concubine Hua's eyes lit up and a smile appeared on her face.
The imperial physician congratulated Gao Lingfeng. His pulse was calm, and both mother and son were safe.
Gao Lingfeng rewarded the imperial physician with money and then sent the eunuch to report the good news to the Empress Dowager and the Empress 'family.
A new life was about to be born in the palace, and the person involved was naturally happy.
The Minister of Rites, Jia Daode, received the representatives of the Northern Barbarian merchants.
"Everyone, our Great Gan Lord Dynasty is a supreme kingdom of the Heavenly Dynasty.”
The merchant representatives of the Northern Barbarians were trembling.
Smuggling weapons and armor, these merchants knew the attitude of the Great Qian Imperial Court.
These were all crimes that required execution.
This time, more than five hundred Northern Barbarian merchants had been captured. They were all prepared to die.
However, seeing such an amiable Minister Jia, this group of merchants rekindled their hope for life.
Minister Jia said,"
"Your Majesty, the two countries are at war, but the merchants are innocent.”
"We are different from you Northern Barbarians. The Imperial Court values propriety, righteousness, honesty, and shame.”
This time, many merchants knelt down and praised Minister Jia.
"However, this kind of smuggling trade is against the laws of our Da Qian Imperial Court!”
"His Majesty is very kind. He believes that although Great Gan and Northern Barbarians are at war, trade between the two sides is necessary.”
"His Majesty ordered me to organize the border trade market in Jinzhou.”
"In the future, all the merchants of the Northern Barbarians will have to trade in this market.”
The Northern Barbarian merchants looked at each other.
There was actually such a good thing?
In fact, these Northern Barbarian merchants also needed a stable market.
Although the smuggling trade was profitable, it was also very risky.
There were risks in every step of the transaction.
If there was a problem with a batch of goods, they would lose everything.
If there was a legal trading market, these Northern Barbarian merchants would support it.
Minister Jia continued,"
"However, the goods banned by the Great Gan Imperial Court cannot be traded in the future.”
"Weapons and armors are not allowed to be sold to you!”
Then what else should he buy?
The merchant was dumbfounded.
Minister Jia clapped his hands.
Then, he held a gorgeous embroidery in his hands and presented it to the merchants.
"This is the high-quality silk produced by our Gusu Prefecture. Even the most expensive empress dowager of our Great Gan uses this kind of fabric!”
These Northern Barbarian merchants had never seen such gorgeous cloth before.
Minister Jia continued," There are also porcelain and tea sets. Our Da Qian has many good things!”
All kinds of luxury goods were served, and the merchants 'breathing quickened.
The history of the Northern Barbarians was about the same as that of the Great Gan.
Although the Northern Barbarians also had Khans, they were still considered an alliance of tribes.
The tribe leader and chief were also very rich.
Over the years, the demand for the Great Gan Lord Dynasty's exquisite treasures on the plains had also increased.
Merchants were all after profit.
Weapons and armor were heavy and bulky.
The cost of transportation was also high.
If these goods could not be sold, merchants would not be willing to buy them at all.
Luxury goods are so good!
A set of exquisite porcelain could be sold for over a hundred taels of silver on the plains.
A set of exquisite porcelain only took up a small space on the truck.
This kind of commodity was easy to transport and sold well.
However, those Da Qian merchants in Jinzhou were not high-end merchants.
They also couldn't get these exquisite porcelain and beautiful silk.
Minister Jia took out these goods, causing these northern barbarian merchants to drool.
A satisfied smile appeared on Minister Jia's face.
"Other than these treasures, we also provide strong alcohol.”
Minister Jia's subordinate brought over a wine jar.
After opening the wine jar, the strong fragrance of wine wafted out.
The merchants swallowed their saliva.
It was too fragrant!
The Northern Lands was bitterly cold, and these Northern Barbarian merchants were all drunkards.
This kind of strong liquor had always been a specialty of Da Qian.
Wine was also the main commodity that the Northern Barbarian merchants bought.
However, the wine that the merchants in Jinzhou could make was not as good as this.
They could only get some low-alcohol rice wine.
He did not expect Minister Jia to be so enthusiastic and open up the wine trade!
These Northern Barbarian merchants were overjoyed.
If these wines were sent to the grasslands, it would be a huge sum of money!
He did not expect Da Qian to be so generous this time!
Minister Jia continued to smile,"
"Finally, I have another product to recommend to everyone.”
"This kind of divine medicine is the most beloved thing of the officials and nobles in our Da Qian Imperial Court.”
Minister Jia took out an exquisite agate bottle.
Once they fell in love with this exquisite bottle, these Northern Barbarian merchants couldn't leave their eyes.
Da Qian was indeed vast!
This thing was too exquisite!
Minister Jia continued,"This thing is called Five Stones Powder. It's recorded in our ancient books."”
"After eating this divine medicine, it can strengthen one's body.”
"After eating it, your whole body will be hot and you can resist the cold.”
"The most important thing is that after eating it, you can enjoy the joy of the human world!”
"This is also a commodity that our Great Gan Lord Dynasty is prepared to trade.”
"Is this sincerity enough?"
The merchants of the Northern Barbarians discussed animatedly. Finally, the leader of the merchants said,"Minister, may I ask what goods do you want?”
Minister Jia chuckled and said,"Ginseng, mink fur, and winter pearls. In addition, we also want horses!"”
