Liaodong Great Wall garrison.

"Captain, the people are all together."

On the edge of the Great Wall.

Wang Li was dressed as a captain of the Han military academy and was dotting.

It has been more than a month since he joined the Han Dynasty, and as a general who is related to the Zhang family, his first position is the captain of the border area.

The treatment is not bad, and it is not much different from the captain on Wuhuan's side, and even a little exceeded.

However, the treatment is exceeded, but the monthly receipt is somehow lost thirty percent out of thin air.

He's still related to the Zhang family.

It can be seen from this that it is the norm for some soldiers in the border counties to withhold food and wages.

Like a normal captain, the garrison captain commanded 800 to 1,000 troops, defended a certain pass of the Great Wall, and needed to light a beacon fire in the event of a large number of thieves.

His three hundred tiger elites are now scattered among thousands of people, and they are in charge of large and small armies.

Although even if it is him, the money for military rations has been deducted, but the soldiers under his command have received all the food and all the rings that are different from the past.

It's as simple as that, Wang Li gathered the military hearts of the seven hundred Han troops.

"Report!"

"Too observant of the order, from now on, Wang Li, the commander of the border army, will lead the troops to change the guard, and guard the town of the head of Wuwu County."

"Captain, this is the letter of the Taishou."

A herald of the Taishou Mansion respectfully handed over a piece of cloth, and after Wang Li took it, he saluted and waited.

The border of the Great Wall is the focus, and when no one else comes to take the place, he cannot leave with his troops.

Fortunately, the change of guard and the dispatch were synchronized, and after a short time, a temporary border guard of 300 people arrived here.

After Wang Li made a simple deal with the other party, he led his army to leave.

Wuhuan .

"Uncle really said that?"

Zhang Qi poured Zhang Guang a cup of tea.

The latter nodded: "Yes, my father controls Liaodong, and he has eyes and ears for any trouble, this time the news is indeed leaked, but fortunately, the secret agent only knows that you are the nephew of the Zhang family, and I don't know much about the rest." ”

"yes. In other words, the young army came to me. ”

Zhang Qi secretly figured to himself, now Zhang Yi's attitude has been made clear, that is, he will follow him, and Liaodong is already his.

It seems that the struggle between the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu over the years has made Zhang Yi completely lose confidence in the Han Dynasty, otherwise he would not have made a shocking bet after seeing Zhang Qi's potential.

"My brother knows, it's still bothering my brother-in-law to make such a trip, stay for dinner, and my brother will arrange a boat to send you back to Liaodong later."

Zhang Guang nodded: "It's all up to my brother's arrangement." ”

The change in Wuhuan was shocking to Zhang Guang, since last year, it has been almost the same place every year, and at this moment, Zhang Guang can't tell whether he is in the north or Chang'an.

When he came, he had already walked around Wuhuan City a few times, and there were all kinds of facilities in the city, food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and all kinds of goods were prosperous, and he was overwhelmed by all kinds of outputs.

The only thing that puzzled him was where these things came from, if it was commerce, his father, Liaodong Taishou, did not receive the news of the transit of bulk commodities.

And looking at the situation now, his brother seems to have a stable supply of goods, at least, that route can provide, food, salt, cloth, iron.

After lunch in the City Lord's Mansion, Zhang Guang continued to wander around the neat streets of Wuhuan City with a few entourages, he was not in a hurry to return to Liaodong, his father said that it was good to learn more from Brother Qi, some things are not enough to know, you have to experience them yourself.

"Hello and welcome to Agricultural Village."

As he walked, Zhang Guang came to a splendid building.

"Farming?"

Zhang Guangrao muttered meaningfully.

"Yes, we are here to provide convenience to farmers, whether it is to buy grain, or tools to plough cattle and livestock and poultry can be convenient in our bank."

"Of course, our bank also has a business that is responsible for currency exchange and processing loans."

The staff of Qianzhuang who entertained Zhang Guang looked at Zhang Guang's dress, and some understood that the other party was not a local, nor was he a servant.

"Are you talking about this kind of copper coin called 'Qi Qian'?"

Zhang Guang took out a copper plate of excellent quality from his sleeve, which was the five-baht coin issued by Wu Huan.

The staff recognized it, nodded and smiled: "It is Qiqian, this currency is named after the king, and it is also the currency commonly used by Wuhuan Xianbei." ”

Zhang Guang nodded, he had come into contact with those merchants who had left from Wuhuan, and each time the other party went to business, he would not only bring a large number of goods, but also a large amount of Qiqian.

Now half of the currency in Liaodong has been quietly replaced, and these merchants are very gentle in other things, and can discuss anything, except when they collect money, they only recognize this kind of money.

If you don't have it, it doesn't matter, he can exchange it for you, whether it's exchanging goods for money, or exchanging money for Han Sanzhu Qin and a half tael, but coins for coins, this kind of Qi money needs three Han three plants or five Qin and a half taels to exchange.

And when those merchants swept the goods in the towns and villages, they gave more Qi money, and over time, the people of Liaodong were used to this kind of coin, and even the purchasing power of Qi Qian in Liaodong was greater than that of Han Sanzhu and Qin Banliang, and under the advantage, the people of Liaodong used this kind of coin.

This time he came to Wuhuan, he naturally brought enough money, although Zhang Qi is his brother, but he is so old, he can't buy anything and ask Zhang Qi for money.

Zhang Guang responded to the staff with a smile, he just walked in just looking at this building and didn't have any needs, so after a brief explanation, he took people and left.

Night.

Zhang Guang returned to the City Lord's Mansion a little tired, today's trip to Wuhuan City gave him a great shock, various industries erupted with that kind of frightening vitality, and everyone who lived in this city had a real smile on their faces.

The weavers have clothing, the cultivators have food, and the city really does it.

"Father, you really think above others, and now I understand why you value your brother so much."

In the house arranged for him by Zhang Qiren, Zhang Guang muttered and gradually fell asleep.

And in Liaodong, Zhang Qi also stepped off the ship.

"Your Majesty."

The wind on the river at night was not small, and Bai Xing thoughtfully put on a big coat for him, and Zhang Qi nodded.

"Call me General Zhang in the future, I am Liaodong Zhang Qi, Zhang's nephew."

Shirahoshi arched his hand: "Humble and remember." ”

"Well, prepare the car and go to Xiangping Taishou Mansion."

At ten o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Qi made a difficult decision, he was also going to Liaodong to join the company, the outside world called him General Zhang, he also acted in the name of General Zhang during the Liaodong War, and now Liu Che's temptation has come, it depends on how he responds.

But no matter what, it must be delayed until the death of the military minister Shan Yu and the internal strife of the Xiongnu.
