The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 22 Jealousy
Unknowingly, the two chatted until the second half of the night.

It turned out that Chen Kaiwu was only interested in the other party's background, but now he knows that the little brother in front of him has big ambitions.

Although the idea was a bit scary, and he actually wanted to disturb the traditional and old system of the guard, he was not the one who would not listen to people's persuasion.

Under my own persuasion, instead of sticking to my own opinion, I gave up my unrealistic thoughts.

A bit like Ma Xuan, but not as ignorant of current affairs as Ma Xuan, who is too serious and falls behind.

Tang Qing'an also got to know Chen Kaiwu again. He thought he was just a man who followed the wind, but he was a hundred households who knew how to advance and retreat and stick to the bottom line.

"You are backed by the Jia Mansion, and you have a relationship with the Jingying Jiedushi. You should ride a donkey to find a horse." Seeing that Tang Qing'an hadn't turned the corner yet, Chen Kaiwu pointed out.

"Like this time when I was transferred to the guards, I was able to escape this job. I followed my uncle's path and my friendship with Qianhu in the past. People with a discerning eye will see it in the eyes, and my resume will not look good.

But you are different, there is an errand sent by Liaodong Dusi, no one can say anything, and if you do this job well, you will be meritorious, this is a conspiracy. "

Tang Qing'an understood what Chen Kaiwu meant.

Jia, Shi, Wang, and Xue, the four great masters, were intertwined and obscured the sun. There were too many people involved, and they were too deeply involved, and I was not sure what would happen in the future.

For example, the position of the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor, the Jia Mansion is now more like a target because of the mistakes made in the past.

You can take advantage of the situation in ten years.What about ten years from now?
So Tang Qing'an wanted to take advantage of it, but didn't want to cause trouble. He planned to gradually become self-reliant so that the Japanese and Japanese families would not be separated.

Chen Kaiwu didn't expect that he was so far away, and when he learned that he wanted to make up for Zhengding, he instructed himself to follow the relationship at the top and not to stare at the bottom, which would easily cause trouble for himself.

Although the starting points of the two are different, Tang Qing'an is already transparent.

I want to learn from Mao Wenlong, but Mao Wenlong has outstanding talents in history. First, he has been in the army for more than ten years, and he has a deep understanding of the terrain of Liaodong and the barbarians.

Even the famous military strategist Xiong Tingbi praised him. He is familiar with geography and good at offensive and defensive tactics.

My own victory lies in information, and if I want to compete with Mao Wenlong in talent, I really use the short to strike the long.

Obviously my advantage lies in the Jia family, but I am worried about its outcome, and want to find another way, it is really picking the sesame and losing the watermelon.

When I successfully establish "Dongjiang Town" and become a town governor, I'm afraid I won't be able to change the decision of the head of Jia's family, and even change the trend of history.

Seeing Tang Qing'an's expression relaxed, Chen Kaiwu smiled and said, "Now I can figure it out."

The two smiled at each other.

The next day, when they came out of Qianhu's house, the two bid farewell.When Tang Qing'an returned to his Baihu House, he saw a group of people practicing from afar, their clothes and armor were torn, and their weapons were in disarray.
Not wanting to disturb Liu Chengmin, he made a detour and went back to the public house.

When the chafu in the public house saw Baihu come back, he took the kettle in the stove, and then came in to replace the hot water. Seeing that Baihu didn't give orders, he retreated quietly.

Last night, he drank a lot of wine and chatted with Chen Kaiwu in the middle of the night. He only slept for two hours and felt exhausted, so he went to lie down on the kang to rest.

……

"You didn't think of it at the beginning, but now you're resentful of me, blaming me for not going out with you and taking advantage of your cousin."

Wu Jinxiao pointed at his second son and cursed.

Wu Zhong poked his neck full of dissatisfaction.

Knowing that his cousin has become a hereditary hundred households, and under the care of Uncle Chen Ceshi, the Liaodong Metropolitan Division, he is as stable as Mount Tai in Guangning, and he immediately envied him.

"I thought he would join the camp as a soldier and become a young general. Who knows if he would become a hereditary hundred household, or be in Guangning, which is farther away from Shenyang than we are."

"It's the master's appreciation, and I put a lot of effort into helping him." Wu Jinxiao explained.

"Master can recognize who he is? It's not because of the loyalty of our Wu family for generations." Wu Zhong said more and more resentment.

"If I had known that the master would show such a great kindness, Dad, you should have changed your mind at that time, and it was originally a thing of my Wu family."

"You know shit."

Wu Jinxiao looked at the shameless appearance of the second son, and was so angry that he wanted to beat him.

Seeing this, Wu Zhong dodged to the door, Ude blocked his father, turned his head and said to Wu Zhong, "Look at how angry Dad is, it has already reached this point, what's the use of talking more."

With his elder brother around, Wu Zhong was not afraid of his father, knowing that his elder brother would help stop him.

"Big brother, you are my big brother, I won't argue with you, I don't complain if I give you things from the Wu family, but why should I give them to outsiders?"

This is also the truth, the eldest brother has always been generous to them, although sometimes he is more serious, but on the whole he takes good care of the younger brothers.

Seeing that the eldest brother was silent, Wu Zhong spoke again.

"Hundreds of hereditary households! Which one of our hundreds of households in Beizhen doesn't have a hundred acres of land? Our Wu family has only accumulated less than three hundred acres of land over the years."

Ude also felt distressed when he heard it, and felt quite sorry in his heart.

"Our family's land is rented out to others to grow. After collecting the rent and deducting the family's rations, it is only seven or eighty taels of silver a year. It is not like the hereditary hundred households. Although it is only more than a hundred acres of land, there are military households who can use it for free. I don’t have to worry about living here, even if the office expenses are deducted, I can still save at least sixty taels of silver every year.”

I have never eaten pork and I have seen pigs run. I have never been to the Baihu family in Beizhen, and they know everything about it.

Ude nodded again and again, and even complained.

"Father, it's natural to help my cousin, and I agree, but this time your old man is indeed too generous."

Hearing that the eldest son complained about him, Wu Jinxiao was really angry this time, and pointed at the second son in front of the door.

"You come in, I won't hit you, I'll have a good fight with you."

Wu Zhong hesitated for a while, then walked in slowly, seeing that his father hadn't lied to him, he stood beside his elder brother.

Wu Jinxiao sat back on the kang, and Wu De sat on the other side.

"You all know the ability of our family. It is definitely impossible to inherit a hundred households, right?"

Wu De nodded, this is true, Wu Zhong wanted to defend himself, but Wu Jinxiao glared at him, and finally held back.

"I begged the master at first, but the master didn't promise anything. I originally thought that I would get involved in Liaodong, put on an old face, get some money for your cousin, and find a small position for your cousin in the Beizhen military camp. .”

"Then why?" Ude was curious.

"Later, it was the master who met your cousin and tested your cousin. It was the master who was moved by your cousin's talent, so he spent a lot of time and even asked the master of the Wang family to come forward. That's how you got your cousin. My younger brother's hereditary military position of hundreds of households."

"I see."

Ude believed his father.

In the past few years, he has been in charge of the family, and he is very clear about the family background and the relationship with various places.The Wu family really didn't have to worry about food and clothing, and they also interacted with various officials and figures in Beizhen.

It is not difficult to ask for some things, but it is indeed impossible to operate at the level of Baihu.

"It was said in my aunt's letter that the uncle of the Xue family appreciates my cousin very much. It seems that it is indeed true, not a lie." Ude sighed.

Wu Zhong still didn't believe it, thinking of the hereditary position of a hundred households, his heart felt like a mouse scratching.
