The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 40
Wu Quande's father-in-law is the guard of Zhenyuan Fort.

Forts like this are usually garrisoned by generals, generals, and team officers. According to the size and importance of the fort, the smallest scale is only more than ten people, and there are more than a thousand people.

Since Wu Quande's father-in-law is on the garrison, although he is stationed in Zhenyuan Fort, he is also in charge of Zhen'an Fort, Zhenwu Fort, and Xixing Fort.

Because behind it is Beizhen, the location of Liaodong Jiedu Mansion, so there is a policy of guarding the fort.

As for the cousin sister-in-law, Tang Qing'an already knew that because she was not born to her regular wife and her biological mother died young, she married Wu Quande.

A group of seven people came to the door in a big way. When the guard heard the steward's report, he showed a dazed face. Why did Chen Ce's son get mixed up with the Wu family.

Although I am closer to the Jiedu Mansion because it belongs to its restraint, I dare not be disrespectful to the Liaodong Dusi, and I also know that Chen Ce is going to be promoted to the Experience Department.

So let the butler lead everyone into the hall instead of the side hall.

Tang Qing'an's seven people came forward and kowtowed, the guard Ding Yuan showed a smile, and asked all the juniors to stand up and sit down. Seeing the prosperity of the Wu family's descendants, he was quite satisfied with his daughter's husband's family.

"I heard that your father is going to be promoted?"

Ding Yuan greeted Chen Song first, and Chen Song replied with a respectful face, "As Uncle Shi said, it has been confirmed."

Hearing that Chen Song followed the Wu family and called him Shishu, he smiled and told him not to be restrained.

"You are Tang Qing'an?"

Ding Yuan saw Tang Qing'an for the first time, and he took a good look at him. A few days ago, his in-laws came to visit him and mentioned this son, who was quite valued by the master of Ningguo Mansion.

"The younger generation should have come to Liaodong early to visit the elders of the clan, but it has been delayed until now due to official duties, so I still invite uncle Haihan."

Tang Qing'an shouted along with his cousins, Ding Yuan also nodded.

Jia's family wants to moisten things silently.

This is Ding Yuan's guess.

Although the person in front of him is only a hundred households, he will only be 20 years old ten or even twenty years later.

With the care of the Jia family and the local Wu family, it didn't take long before he got in touch with Liaodong Dusi.

In 20 years, a large network can be formed. What will happen in 30 years?
"You are very good. Since you called me uncle and came to my place to admit the door, you should not see outsiders in the future. Come and see me more often."

Tang Qing'an stood up respectfully, saluted cautiously, and then spoke.

"I had no father since I was a child, and I lost my mother the year before last, so I am today thanks to the great love of the two elders of Jia's and Xue's houses.

Thanks to the care of my two uncles, I was lucky enough to come to Liaodong to seek a future. I was sympathized by my uncle and looked after me as a junior. "

When Tang Qing'an mentioned Uncle Shi, he glanced at Chen Song while talking, and Chen Song smiled back.

"Seeing my uncle today, and showing so much love for me, I am really touched. Uncle recognizes me. I didn't know how to be polite when I was young. I hope my uncle will teach me more in the future, so that I won't be disgusted by my stubbornness."

Hearing these words, Ding Yuan became more satisfied and more enthusiastic than before.

"Although we have only just met, I already know that you must be promising, otherwise why would you be loved by so many elders.

The Dingwu family are relatives by marriage, and the two families are actually a family. In terms of love and reason, I am also your decent elder. I can't help you, but I will still be strict with you and not let you go astray. "

After finishing speaking, Ding Yuan looked serious.

After hearing this, Tang Qing'an's face was moved, and his eyes blushed slightly.

"Before my mother was alive, she was most worried that our brothers would have no father to discipline us since childhood, and worried that we would go astray. Now, as the elder brother in the family, I have to set an example for the younger brothers who are still adopted in Xue's family."

"So good."

Only then did Ding Yuan show a smiling face.

After exchanging pleasantries, Ding Yuan left everyone for dinner, and Wu Quande followed up, revealing the real intention of coming to Yue Zhang.

When Ding Yuan heard what his son-in-law said, he froze in surprise.

"Mutual market?"

"It's possible, Qing'an has already written a letter to the capital to inquire." Wu Quande described the situation analyzed by Tang Qing'an to Yue Zhang again.

"Is this what he analyzed?"

Seeing Yue Zhang's unbelievable expression, Wu Quande nodded triumphantly.

"This matter is no small matter. Even if it is really implemented, it is under the control of the court, and ordinary people can't intervene..."

Ding Yuan didn't finish his sentence, but he came to his senses.

The group of juniors in front of me, there are people in the court, people in the local area, and people in Jinling, and they can even be counted here. If the horse market really opened in Zhenyuanguan.

That... isn't it tailor-made for them?
"You will seize the opportunity."

Ding Yuan sighed.

He is in charge of the frontier and knows some inside information.

A long time ago, there was also a horse market in Liaodong, but it was not with Mongolia, but with various ethnic groups in Liaodong. Every year, there was only an official pardon for at least one or two thousand horses, and as many as four or five thousand horses.

It was not until the barbarians were out of control that the tea horse market was gradually stopped.

These are the official transactions, and the private transactions are even more prosperous, especially ginseng, fur, mountain products, etc., and the profits are immeasurable.

At the beginning, all ethnic groups in Liaodong benefited a lot from this, and even privately transferred Daming materials to local barbarians for profit.

But now the commercial road has long been cut off, and the three parties are in a state of isolation.

If the tea-horse market is really opened, and the target is the native tribes, the volume will be many times larger than before and the Liaodong tribes.

After all, the population of the Liaodong tribes is far less than that of the Tuman tribes.

"You don't want to make any noise about this matter, as long as you know it yourself." Ding Yuan couldn't help explaining.

Wu Quan had to nod his head.

"Only the elders of several families know about it, and Chen Song's father also told us not to spread it, let us be cautious."

"As it should be."

Everyone came from a long distance, of course they will not leave immediately, Ding Yuan has already sent a message to stay at everyone's home.

On the second day, the son of the garrison family enthusiastically proposed to go hunting. He went to the army to get some bows and arrows.

When several people heard this proposal, they happily agreed.

"Aren't you about to take part in the martial arts exam? The martial arts exam will test strategy and horse archery. I'm not worried about your strategy. It's just a matter of practicing bow and arrow today." Chen Song laughed.

With the care of Bai Yangcui and Chen Ce, Tang Qing'an knew a lot about martial arts, but he didn't want to spoil everyone's opinion, and he also had itchy hands, so he also smiled.

The young master of the garrison family called the family servant to call the military household, and asked him to notify the fort to send bows and arrows, and it would be better to get a few more horses.

When the garrison master spoke, it was too late for the army to fawn over him, so he not only brought all the horses in the army, but also sent three soldiers to act as guides, and the one who brought them was a small banner officer, who said with a smile that he would serve everyone.

Zhenyuan Fort is set up here, of course the terrain is dangerous.

A group of people walked more than ten miles into the deep mountain. With such a big movement, the animals in the mountain had long been hidden.

Finally, I saw a movement in a bush. The son of the defender shot three arrows in a row, and a lynx ran out of the bush.

Everyone hurriedly chased after him, but they couldn't find anything when they drew their bows and arrows, and they all shot to the empty space.

Tang Qing'an calmed down, and finally shot the bobcat's hind leg for the third time, rolled around and ran again, but was much slower with the arrow in his body.

Another arrow hit the cat's head.

"it is good."

Everyone cheered.

"You are good at archery, you can pass martial arts without any problem." Everyone laughed.
