The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 39
The soldiers were really drinking too much, Tang Qing'an got drunk, and went back to his room to rest after Chen Ce left. By sunset, Chen Ce had already returned from the management office.

"Master Jinglue affirmed this matter, saying that the censor proposed it last year, but he doesn't know what the court's situation is and whether it has decided to open a border market."

Tang Qing'an received Chen Ce's reply, and began to write. The letter not only wrote about his situation in Liaodong, but also talked about the situation in Liaodong and his future guesses.

Finally, I asked the master to help me find out how the imperial court decided on the horse market, and whether there would be a horse market. "

Tang Qing'an took the initiative to hand over the written letter to Chen Ce, and Chen Ce was extremely satisfied with Tang Qing'an's gesture of kindness.

Chen Ce sealed the envelope, and the letter will be sent to the capital through the official post road of Liaodong Capital. The speed is fast and safe, and it will not be lost on the road.

"Uncle and I will go back tomorrow, and I would like to trouble Brother Song to accompany me." Tang Qing'an explained.

When Chen Ce heard the words, he called for his son Chen Song.

"Ah? Shall I go with you?" Chen Song was also drunk and had just returned from outside.

Tang Qing'an explained the whole story to him again.

"no problem."

When Chen Song heard that a border market might be opened, and then heard Tang Qing'an's bold idea, the benefits were touching, he immediately sobered up and looked refreshed.

On the second day, several people went on the road, bought some silk and satin in Liaoyang City, and then returned to Daheishan.

After resting at his uncle's house for a day, Tang Qing'an, Chen Song, and Wu De set off for Xiaoheishan.

Wu Quande was very happy to see a few people, and when the juniors saw his father, they lined up and bowed their heads in a row to pay respects to his old age.

When the old man learned that Chen Ce's son was also here, he showed a smile instead of putting on a cold face.

The seven juniors were punching at the wine table, and the room was full of noise. The old man's house hadn't been this lively for many years. They were all juniors of his own family, and the old grievances disappeared in the end.

"Mongolia and the imperial court will definitely reconcile."

After everyone drank seven to eight cents, Tang Qing'an hiccupped and began to digress.

"No way? The two sides have been fighting for nearly a hundred years, how many people have died, how to reconcile?" Wu Zhong's vision is superior, but his knowledge is still there.

"That's right, I go to my father-in-law's house at the end of the year, and it's still the same as in previous years."

Wu Quande also said.

"The situation outside is different. In the past, both sides were dissatisfied, but now a barbarian has risen up, first hitting us hard, and then hitting Mongolia hard.

In the past, all ethnic groups in Liaodong were younger brothers on both sides, working hard for both sides, but now the world has changed, and the younger brother turning over is the most hateful.

Of course, the two sides will not be like in the past, let the fisherman benefit in the end, at least there will be no major wars. "

This matter is actually very simple, it is to change the inherent impression that the Wu family is a local tycoon, Tang Qing'an just nodded a little bit, and everyone figured it out.

Wu Quande is of medium build, with piercing eyes, just like his father, giving people the impression of being shrewd and strong.

He then pondered, Tang Qing'an's statement was very likely to come true.

"In the past, the barbarians were strong enough to help others. Now that the barbarians are strong, the most uncomfortable thing is Mongolia. How can we allow others to snore on the side of the couch."

Tang Qing'an put down the wine glasses, and everyone stopped drinking. Although Chen Song had the highest status, he was convinced by Tang Qing'an and listened quietly.

"Liaodong is a rural land for us, but it has always been a barren land for the imperial court, and Mongolia is different. In fact, Mongolia is more urgent."

"Then what do you think the Tatars will do? What will the court do?" Wu Quande asked.

"It depends on the situation. Now both sides are holding it, and no one is willing to take the initiative to put down the body first."

Tang Qing'an deduced from the current situation based on the history of his previous life.

"If the barbarians take down Shen Liao this year, then the imperial court will take the initiative. If not, it will be the Chahar Mongols who will take the initiative. It is estimated that they will learn from Tumed Mongols."

The Wu family brothers don't know what is Chahar Mongolia and what is Tumed Mongolia. They can't even tell the Mongolia outside Zhenyuan Pass.

There are too many Mongolian tribes. This year is this year, and it may be replaced by another one in a few years.

Just like here, outside the pass has always been the Tatar tribe of Duoyan Sanwei, and later changed to the Tatar tribe, which is poorer than before.

"No matter what the ending is, no matter who begs whom, it is estimated that in the end it will be the same as Tumed's side, open a side market."

As soon as the words were written, Wu Quande and Wu Zhong's eyes lit up, and they both saw the opportunity.

In fact, Tang Qing'an also said it based on historical records. In the documents of Liaodong Dusi, Chahar Mongolia was called Tuman, and their sweat was called Tuman Khan.

"Cousin, your father-in-law happens to be the garrison of Zhenyuan Pass, and when the border market opens, it will occupy an advantageous location." Tang Qing'an laughed.

"This... the border market may not necessarily be in Zhenyuan Pass, right?"

Wu Quande was both looking forward to and worried.

"As long as the border market is opened, it will definitely land in Zhenyuan Fort." Tang Qing'an said with certainty.

This is the inevitable truth of the development of the situation.

Tang Qing'an explained the terrain of Liaodong to everyone.

"If Shen Liao is acquired by the barbarians, Jieshi North Town will become the only important town on the front line, which is related to the survival of southern Liaoning.

The imperial court will definitely try its best to keep Beizhen, and to win over Mongolia Kaibian City, it will choose Zhenyuan no matter what. "

Zhenyuan Fort, one of the three forts to the east of Beizhen, is the first place bordering Mongolia. Only by setting up a border city here can Mongolia be encouraged to help Da Zhou protect Beizhen. "

"Then what if Shen Liao doesn't lose?"

Chen Song didn't want to believe that after more than a year's hard work, the Liaodong capital could not keep Shenyang.

"Even if Shen Liao doesn't lose, Horqin and Tuman on Shen Liao's side will not deal with it, so they will only open a border market in Beizhen."

Everyone has no doubts.

They are all brothers of their own family, and they speak without any concealment.

"Supply sources, sales outlets."

Chen Song took the initiative to mention it.

"If you really open a border market in Zhenyuan Fort, my father-in-law is guarding the Zhenyuan Pass, so I have to ask him to open the door anyway, but I have no way to sell it."

After Wu Quande finished speaking, he looked at Tang Qing'an.

"I was originally an apprentice of the Xue family in Jinling, and I was deeply favored by the Xue family. The benefits of the horse market are several times or even ten times higher. I believe the Xue family will definitely be willing to join it."

"Me, if you can't write, you can't do it."

Chen Song laughed.

"However, if you can identify a door in various yamen in Liaodong, I can help you walk around the joints."

"This matter should be done quietly, and don't make a big noise. Tomorrow, my cousin will take us to Zhenyuan Pass to meet your father-in-law. Let's get to know the door first."

"It's easy to talk about this."

Wu Quan has to guarantee the ticket.

A group of juniors, who have big things to do, are all in high spirits, and they all get up before dawn the next morning.

The old man was in the yard, and when he saw the backs of everyone leaving, he unconsciously showed a gratified smile.
