The Jianzhou Wei in spring is unusually cold, and there is even a thick frost on the Tumen River, only when the sun is shining, it will dissolve slightly, but the speed is slow and helpless, and this is the spring of the authentic Northeast.

In recent years, with the continuous growth of the Jianzhou Jurchen, the Jianzhou Sanwei in the northeast to the Tumen River Basin, the southeast to the Yalu River, the west to Kaiyuan and the border wall of eastern Liaodong have gradually become lively.

In the early days of Jianzhou Wei, it belonged to the Nuer Gandu Division, but later most of the territory was under the control of the Liaodong Command Envoy Division. The leaders of the three guards of Jianzhou are mostly produced by **, but they must be approved by the Ming Dynasty before they can take effect, and they must go to Beijing every year to pay tribute in exchange for a temporary peace.

In order to control the Jurchens of Jianzhou Wei, the Ming Dynasty has used the conflicts between various tribes to contain it over the years, coupled with the setting of many development checkpoints, infinitely strengthening the rule of the local area, and in peacetime efforts to maintain mutual market exchanges with the three Wei, on the one hand, to control, on the other hand, it is also out of the consideration of inducement.

But in recent years, with the continuous strengthening of Nurhachi's Jianzhou Xiwei Nuzhen, coupled with the connivance and support of Li Chengliang's forces behind the scenes. The Jianzhou generation gradually broke away from the constraints and control of the Ming Dynasty, and with the deepening of exchanges with the mainland, they gradually began to learn to develop with new thinking, and gradually became prosperous.

In particular, the Fushun Guan generation has become the leader of the places outside the Guan, not only gathering the popularity of businessmen from all over the world, but also becoming the most powerful military town of the surrounding generation.

However, this is the last thing the Ming Dynasty wants to see. Several generations of chiefs led by Yu Shenxing and Shen Shixing have seen this problem, but for various reasons, this problem has not been solved for a long time, so it is suspended in the northern frontier of the Ming Dynasty, becoming a sword of Damocles that may fall at any time.

In the afternoon of this day, a caravan came to Fushun Pass, the scale was not small, and it was a typical Dongying-style square house car, which was the dress and posture of the caravan at a glance.

The guards at the pass didn't know much about the rules of commerce, but the Baylors above had arrangements, and they were all guests, and those who did business had to take care of them. So the guards collected the customs duties and generously invited the merchants from the fleet to the post station.

This group of businessmen looked shrewd and capable, and most of them were dressed as young and sturdy Dongying ronins, which also made many goldfingers and gangsters who originally had ghosts in their hearts put away other ghost ideas, and could only watch the trucks they escorted secretly swallow their saliva.

The caravan was hung with the banner of Echigoya, and this name was very popular in the coastal area, even those who did not have direct trade contacts knew their names, and they were also eaten in this Fushun Pass.

When I came to the post station of the business travel, someone soon came to answer me, and it was the official of the Jianzhou Jurchen who was in charge of business travel.

Seeing these people from Dongying, they were very enthusiastic, and inquired about the main types of goods and prices and the types of items that need to be purchased from various angles.

Dongying's caravan is more popular here, because the Ming Dynasty has always looked down on the Jurchens, and the ** people are black and timid, and they don't have this problem, but the people from Dongying do not have this problem - they respect the strong, know that the Jurchens are now gradually getting bigger, showing enough sincerity, and their business credit is better than that of the ** people, so they have become the best business partners.

"Mr. Sato, what goods did you bring with you this time?" The commercial officer's surname is Wanyan, and his single name is a Rui character, and he is a greasy man in his forties: "Recently, it coincided with the birthday of the person above, and if he brought good goods, he would definitely be able to sell them at a good price!" ”

The young man, known as Sato, replied with a smile: "We have brought with us a great deal of wine, food, and crafts, especially silverware and lacquerware, which are finely crafted things. ”

As he spoke, he picked up the wine glass used for drinking: "The utensils used by your post station should not be bad in the local area, but compared to the ...... we brought" He waved his hand to look at it, and immediately took a pair of wooden boxes from the servant, pushed it in front of Wan Yanrui, and opened it gently.

Inside is a very fine set of lacquerware, Sato smiled very gently: "This is a set of high-quality tea ware, water fingers, handle ladles, building water, tea ladles, eggplants, etc., all available, this is a high-quality tea that only daimyo can afford." ”

The tone of his speech is very firm, and with the glow on the red edge of the lacquerware on a black background, it is extremely persuasive.

Wan Yan Rui was suddenly moved, such a set of tea utensils in the bitter cold area outside the Guanhai is definitely worth the blood. In the past, he had only seen it once in the Metropolitan Command Embassy, and it was still the ** product of the officials above, so he was reluctant to use it at all.

Now that such a top-grade product is placed in front of him so magnificently, Wan Yanrui's heart is moved, and he moves violently.

Sato smiled and took a few sips of tea, and after seeing that Yan Rui didn't speak, he suddenly said: "This is the first time I have come to your place to do business, and there are still many unknowns. ”

As he spoke, he closed the box and gently pushed it in front of Wan Yanrui.

Wan Yanrui's forehead jumped in surprise, he was not a person who had never seen the world, but in front of such a set of boutiques, he still lost his temper: "This ...... This is for me? Sent me? ”

Sato didn't answer, but continued with a smile: "I don't know what you're talking about on your birthday? I hope to give some advice, and we can also go and offer a courtesy. ”

Wan Yanrui was excited, and said, "That is naturally the birthday of the commander of Nurhachidu!" Recently, our Jianzhou Department has conquered the east and west, greatly expanding the territory, and Lord Nurhachi is naturally the leader and has been admired by everyone. This is his birthday, and we are also preparing to do it greatly! ”

Sato smiled: "I don't know how to prepare for it, if it is useful, our Chamber of Commerce will definitely do its best." ”

Wan Yanrui obviously didn't think too much, and was obviously very happy to hear Sato say this: "Oh! That's the best! Originally, we were in the bitter cold land of Jianzhou, and there was a shortage of materials, and we were worried that there were no high-quality products for Lord Nurhachi, Mr. Sato, you came at the right time, and there must be a big deal to do! ”

Sato smiled and filled the tea for Yan Rui, and then poured it for himself, and then said with a smile: "That's naturally the best!" Thanks to Lord Wanyan's care! After the deed is done, there will naturally be heavy thanks! ”

Wan Yanrui was naturally overjoyed, just this set of lacquerware, his income exceeded three hundred taels of silver, and then think about it......

It seems that this year is my lucky year!

Before he knew it, the tea between the two sides had been replaced with wine, coupled with the side dishes carefully concocted by Sato's men, Wan Yanrui ate and drank, and became more and more happy.

On the top of the alcohol, it is natural to open the chatterbox, and all the things that should be said are said, and the things that should not be said are also said.

After a meal of wine and dinner, the two sides are afraid that they have become good friends and good brothers who have passed their lives, and they are business partners who talk about everything!

"Sato, let me tell you, Lord Nurhachi will come to Fushun Pass tomorrow as usual to inspect, if you want to see him, I will introduce you, and you can go and talk to him about business and trade." Wan Yanrui's tongue was already a little straight, and his thoughts were quite clear.

"Oh! Brother Wanyan, if you can successfully introduce you, I will give you a set of official silverware in Kyoto for my brother, it is definitely the best quality! Sato continued to sugarcoat the shells.

"Haha! No problem! My own uncle is the chief of the guard of Lord Nurhachi, is there any reason for this to be impossible? Wan Yanrui's eyes lit up.

Sato laughed twice, turned back to the official family who followed him, and said, "Go and pick the best pair of silverware, and go back and give it to Brother Wanyan." Remember, be the best! ”

The official family immediately received the order, and Wan Yanrui was happy not to want it, and talked about it for a long time, and then returned to his house happily with eight points of drunkenness.

As night fell, all the officials were gone, and only Sato, the official family, and a few guards were left in the courtyard.

"Get ready, Nurhachi will come to Fushun Pass tomorrow, it's earlier than I thought." Sato said.

"Yes! Mr. The official who answered raised his eyebrows slightly, and the expression under the funny mustache was that of the Nine Ghosts and Filial Piety: "I'll arrange it for them again." ”

The pseudonym Sato is none other than me, who sneaked out of everyone's field of vision and quietly came to Fushun Pass. As for my purpose, it is needless to say.

"I need all the troop deployment maps of Nurhachi in Fushun Pass." I spoke again.

"Understood! Sir, I'll arrange for someone to go out to investigate tonight, and tomorrow morning, there should be a rough map. However, if Nurhachi himself arrives, I'm afraid there will be other arrangements, I will arrange personnel tomorrow, and I will master the whole process! "It's the head of the guards who answers, and if you look closely, who is the smeared face and not ink?

"Set up the sentry posts, make sure we are safe, and don't let the messy people in." The Nine Ghosts responded with filial piety, and Zhi also replied: "Yes!" I have sent people to occupy the stupa in the backyard, which is the best sniper and observation point. ”

I nodded in agreement and said nothing more.

There are 110 people in this line, all of whom are the elites I have cultivated since I came out of the mountain, and all of them are masters of one as ten.

This time, I dressed up as a business trip, and naturally I wanted to hit it with one blow and settle the old accounts left in my heart.

Whether this battle is successful or not, I am actually ready to evacuate at any time. After all, the great Ming Dynasty is a huge land of right and wrong.

This was true when the second uncle was alive, and even more so after the death of the second uncle.

I only hope that everything will go well, that I will be able to accomplish the preconceived goal, and that I will fulfill the wish I made to my second uncle.

But am I really doing the right thing?

Is it really appropriate to use one's ability to change history?

If I change the future, will it have any irreversible impact on the world? Is this a good or bad effect?

I don't know, I'm not a prophet, I can't know everything.

All I can do is follow the righteousness in my heart and do what I think is right. That's all!
