Kebi Neng didn't fall asleep until very late that night.

Near noon the next day, Kebineng woke up and ate in a hurry.

Then he began to reply to Liu Yan.

After waiting for the current guards of the Prefecture to get Ke Bineng's reply, they quickly returned to Youzhou City.

Liu Yan and Bai Feng have been waiting at the house for Ke Bineng's reply.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the exhausted guards of the Prefectural Palace finally handed Kebineng's reply to Liu Yan's hands.

After Liu Yan received the letter, he rewarded the guard who delivered the letter a few taels of silver and asked him to go home and have a good rest for two days.

Then Liu Yan and Bai Feng read Ke Bineng's reply together.

After opening Kebineng's reply, Liu Yan and Bai Feng found that there were only two sentences written on it.

"I have agreed to the mutual trading matter."

"Please come to the grassland for a detailed discussion."

Is this gone?

After reading Ke Bineng's concise reply, Bai Feng and Liu Yan looked at each other, and for a moment they didn't know how to evaluate Ke Bineng's reply.

"Since Kebineng has agreed to the mutual trade now, it can be regarded as sensible."

Liu Yan took the reply letter and spoke to Bai Feng.

Bai Feng nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

In any case, Ke Bineng's attitude is quite good.

If Ke Bineng had his own ideas, he would certainly not want to trade with Youzhou.

Even in the mutual market, he needs to take the initiative.

But now the Wei Dynasty is much stronger than Xianbei in terms of the combat effectiveness of its soldiers and the guarantee of logistics and food supplies.

In addition, there is a severe drought in the grassland this year.

If the Wei Dynasty really wanted to send troops to attack Xianbei at this time, then Kebineng, Budugen and Suli had no choice but to unite to resist.

It is impossible to go around in circles with Dawei. Even the native Xianbei people cannot survive on the prairie without water sources.

Therefore, Kebineng can only agree to trade with Youzhou now.

It's just that Kebineng has to fight for the specific details of the mutual market.

"Then I will prepare to go to the grassland tomorrow to discuss the mutual trade with Ke Bineng."

Bai Feng said to Liu Yan.

It is naturally best to be able to resolve mutual market matters as quickly as possible and complete system tasks.

Bai Feng is still waiting to use his reputation points to draw a lottery, and is preparing to return to Hanzhong to vigorously build steam engines and trains.

Liu Yan naturally agreed with Bai Feng to set off as soon as possible.

Now that the drought is getting more and more serious, we can start trading with the Xianbei people as soon as possible, and we can also greatly reduce the chance of the Xianbei people plundering the Youzhou border.

After preparing dry food and water, Bai Feng took Liuli, Zhang Ning and Zhang Qiying and began to go deep into the grassland under the guidance of the guide.

Liu Yan didn't quite understand that Bai Feng always brought his maid with him when traveling.

Naturally, he didn't know that Liuli, Zhang Ning and Zhang Qiying's fighting power was not low.

Under the leadership of their guide, the four of them, Bai Feng, spent three days finally arriving at Kebineng's tribe.

After entering Kebineng's tribe, Bai Feng and the others clearly found that the grassland here was much better, unlike the one they had seen before.

"It seems that the living conditions of the herdsmen on the grassland are not very good."

Liuli said softly to Bai Feng.

The herdsmen I saw along the way were basically sallow and thin.

The cattle and sheep they graze can also be seen clearly losing weight.

"Yes, so for the tribal leaders of Xianbei and Kebineng, the mutual trade was a prelude to surrendering to the Wei Dynasty and accepting the rule of the Wei Dynasty."

"But for the hundreds of thousands of herdsmen on the grasslands, under the rule of the Wei Dynasty, at least they have enough to eat."

Bai Feng looked at the sticky tents in front of him and whispered to Liuli.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ning and Zhang Qiying also felt sympathy for the lives of grassland herdsmen.

Except for the people in Youzhou and other states and counties on the northern border, people in other states and counties will more or less sympathize with the herdsmen's life and think of the days before the Wei Dynasty unified the world.

The people in Youzhou and the northern border wished that these Xianbei herdsmen would starve to death.

They came to Youzhou and the northern border to plunder as soon as they ran out of food in the province.

After entering the range of the Kebineng tribe, it didn't take long for the four of Bai Feng to arrive in front of Kebineng's big tent.

As a large tent where the Khan lived, it was indeed large enough.

Bai Feng, Liuli, Zhang Ning and Zhang Qiying looked at Ke Bineng's tent and thought in their hearts at the same time.

A guard outside the big tent went in to report, and a moment later Ke Bineng came out of the big tent with a smile on his face to greet Bai Feng.

"Hahaha, it's so splendid that Hanzhong Hou is here!"

Kebineng, who has been exposed to and studied the culture of the Central Plains, naturally speaks very authentic Wei official dialect.

When Bai Feng heard this, he naturally smiled and said to Ke Bineng:

"Hahaha, King Khan is too humble."

"This thousand-mile grassland scenery really shocked me and made me feel relaxed and happy!"

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Bai Feng and Ke Bi Neng entered the tent.

Liuli, Zhang Ning and Zhang Qiying were arranged to rest in the sticky tent next to them.

After Bai Feng and Ke Bineng entered the big tent, neither Bai Feng nor Ke Bineng mentioned the mutual trade immediately. Instead, they talked about the scenery of the grassland.

Thanks to Ke Bineng's rich knowledge, Bai Feng felt very comfortable chatting with him, just like talking to an old friend he hadn't seen for a long time.

The two chatted while tasting kumiss.

Half an hour later, Bai Feng finally entered the topic of mutual trading.

"King Khan, Your Majesty cannot bear to see the grasslands devastated due to drought, so you hereby ask me to come to see King Khan and explain the opening of mutual trade."

"After the mutual market is opened, Xianbei can obtain grain, cloth, salt and other materials from the Wei Dynasty."

"These are all explained in Taishou Liu's letter to King Khan, so I won't go into details."

"I wonder if King Khan has any other conditions he wants to put forward after the opening of the mutual market?"

After Bai Feng and Ke Bineng finished speaking, they asked him at the end.

Ke Bineng spoke to Bai Feng and said in a deep voice:

"The Emperor of Wei is willing to consider the interests of my Xianbei tribe. I am naturally very grateful."

"So after receiving the letter from Governor Liu, I directly agreed to open the mutual market."

"However, during the Hanzhong period, the Wei Emperor invited Erlang, the leader of my tribe, to go to Youzhou to study. Can this matter be accommodated?"

Kebineng was still unwilling to let Wei completely control his Xianbei tribe.

Even if the final result is that Xianbei still becomes a subject of the Wei Dynasty, Ke Bineng still wants to let this day come later.

Bai Feng smiled slightly when he heard this.

This is pretty good what Ke Bi could think of.

If you don't allow the children of your tribal leader to go to school in Youzhou, then after the mutual trade, won't the Xianbei tribe still covet Youzhou as their strength grows?

Bai Feng absolutely cannot give in on this point.
