Nowadays, from Jincheng to Nanzhong, you basically go down the waterway. After arriving at Bodao (later Yibin), you get off the boat and go to the destination of Nanzhong.

On this waterway from Jincheng to Bodao, there is a place where three rivers converge.

They are Jiangshui (i.e. the Yangtze River), Qingyi water and Moshui, which converge into Nan'an County, Qianwei County (i.e. Leshan City in later generations).

From Nan'an County, you can go west against the Qingyi River to reach Hanjia County.

Hanjia County looks very big, but in fact there are very few places that the Han Dynasty can use, so there are only four counties: Hanjia County, Yandao County, Yi County, and Yanniu County.

Among these four counties, there is the Yanniu County in Yanniu County. During the Later Han Dynasty, it cut off the main road between Yuexun and Jincheng for more than a hundred years.

Finally, after Feng Yong became the governor of Yuexun, he subdued the Yanniu tribe and re-opened the connection between the two places.

The relocated county among the four counties in Hanjia County is located on the upper reaches of Qingyi River.

Continuing upstream from Yixian, you can also encounter Yi tribes coming down from the high mountains in the west (Hengduan Mountains and Qinghai-Tibet Plateau).

They often drove their cattle and sheep, or took various furs, to the relocation county in exchange for salt, clothing, etc.

Especially the thick woolen materials that have appeared in recent years are extremely popular.

Together with salt, it is what the Yi tribe needs most.

Because it's really cold in the mountains.

Of course, if there are tribes that are willing to trade with the Han people, there will naturally be tribes that want to do what they do best: commit chaos and plunder.

This is a tradition.

Traditions are not easy to change.

Otherwise, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty would not have pushed forward the "last piece of the puzzle in Shu" plan.

Feng Yong forced the Li family to go to Hanjia County to find a new way out. In fact, he was implementing the centuries-old tradition of border development in the Han Dynasty: relocating people to consolidate the border.

This people can be good people or criminal people.

Or ministers who failed in political struggles, or even members of the royal family.

Different from ordinary people, these ministers or royal families were demoted to the frontiers and often brought a large number of slaves with them to contribute to the stabilization of the Han Dynasty's territory.

For hundreds of years, the Han Dynasty consolidated its territory bit by bit and continued to encroach outside.

Li Twelve Lang, the direct grandson of the eldest family member of the Li family, in the past few years, every time something big happened, he would show up in time and hang out in front of the concubine of King Feng Gui.

It really made Li Mu, the concubine of the Feng family, a little annoyed.

So Madam Mu blew the pillow wind in King Feng Gui's ear.

Finally, King Feng Gui made a "suggestion" to the Li family's first house, asking Li Twelve Lang to go to Hanjia to open up the situation.

In order to help the Li family's family to successfully open up channels for the barbarians in the western high mountains in Hanjia, King Feng Gui was even willing to borrow some of the wool in advance.

In the old Li family's big house, if anyone dared to point out their own family affairs like this, they would have been slapped into the mud.

Then a mountain is built on top of it, and it won't be able to turn over for five hundred years.

It's a pity that what they encountered was a generation of demons and a generation of ghost kings...

So in the end, they can only silently be a law-abiding farmer and a scholar.

In fact, compared to before, farming is pretty good, at least every year the imperial court and the Xinghan Association will purchase it at a guaranteed low price.

But happiness comes from comparison.

The money you earn from selling the grain you have worked so hard for a year cannot compare to selling a batch of wool.

How can you let those aristocratic families who are used to eating big fish and meat be willing to do so?

It's just that everything from raw material production to processing, to finished product distribution, and finally to sales channels is firmly in the hands of others.

What can I do if I am not willing to give in?

Now, King Feng Gui has finally managed to get some oil and water out of his fingers. If the Li family doesn't hold it tightly, can it be given away?

Direct grandson?

What's wrong with the legitimate grandson? It's not like Jade Master is the only legitimate grandson!

To put it bluntly, isn't it natural for a direct grandson to go to Hanjia to open up a new situation for the family?

So Li Twelve Lang was sent to Hanjia by his family.

Of course, he was his direct grandson after all, so the eldest family member of the Li family also sent many people to follow him.

There are servants, servants, and concubines who live in the same household.

Moving to the county was the Li family's first major foothold in Hanjia County.

Things are expensive when you leave your hometown, but people are cheap when you leave your hometown.

Needless to say, the people of the Li family's family left the plains of Shu and went to areas where riots often occurred to open up troubles. Needless to say, the hardships involved.

However, the Li family's big house was still too spacious after all, and even if it declined, it was still beyond the reach of ordinary rich men.

Since the county is located on the edge of the Qingyi River and is located in a basin surrounded by mountains, the land here is very fertile.

But most of them are barbarians, and their farming level is too low.

The Li family's big house can cultivate a lot of farmland with the help of people, oxen and plows.

It is not difficult to gain a foothold, but how to open up new situations is not something that can be accomplished overnight.

Because unlike King Feng Gui, they had reputation, means, power, and enough resources to quickly conquer the local barbarians by using both soft and hard tactics.

They can't even show off the tricks they used to do in the fish and meat village before, because the local government is watching them eagerly.

So I can only keep my feet on the ground honestly.

Of course, with the rich background of the Li family, it is impossible to be helpless.

For example, the cultural level of those concubines and concubines is enough to crush the people around them.

Therefore, selecting a few well-educated people to enlighten children from qualified families is a way to accumulate reputation.

Anyway, the "Three Character Classic" belongs to King Feng Gui, so it's not a loss if you use it to win favors!

The so-called qualified families include not only the local wealthy families, but also the children of some local village leaders.

One, two, three, or four children from poor families who are interested in learning but have talents will even be exempted from their studies.

This set of tricks is also played very smoothly by aristocratic families.

But in any case, after the Li family's extended family moved to Mixian County, there were some quiet changes in Mixian County.

Because of the arrival of the Li family, several more villages were built one after another, either far or near, centered on the old county seat where the county was moved.

There are even ones at the foot of the mountains in the distance.

Basically, they are arranged according to the distance relationship within the Li family.

In Hanjia, where there were constant disturbances, even if the imperial court stationed troops here, each village must have at least the most basic defense capabilities.

When the sun was almost overhead, a group of soldiers escorted a school captain down the mountain.

Someone from another group of soldiers guarding the bottom of the mountain immediately led the horse out. The captain took the reins, climbed on the horse, and ordered: "Let's go."

The two groups of soldiers reorganized into formation, followed the captain, and headed towards the next dock.

Lieutenant Feng is the main person in charge of the garrison in Yi County, and he personally inspects the various forts in Yi County every ten days.

In the year of the Prime Minister's Northern Expedition, Feng Junhou led the army from Yuexun to the north, and he was a member of the army.

Because he was ruthless and unafraid of death, no one was left behind in the Battle of Jieting, the Battle of Longxi, and the Battle of Jincheng.

He can also be regarded as an old man in Feng Junhou's army.

It's a pity that he is too slow to read. He can only recognize two if others can recognize five.

Others memorized it until nine-nine-eighty-one, but he only memorized it three-seven-twenty-one.

In addition, if your heart is too dead and your mind is not alive, under Feng Junhou, even if you have the same surname as Feng Junhou, the highest you can reach is the position of Military Marquis.

There is no way. Compared with the armies of the same era, the system of Feng Junhou's army is too complex, which represents the historical trend of specialization of arms.

Fortunately, the Prime Minister's "Last Piece Puzzle Plan for Shu Land", Xinghan Hui also has to contribute.

So Feng Xiaowei's immediate superior said with a stroke of his pen, you are not suitable for this place, go to Hanjia.

The most that Colonel Feng could do under Feng Junhou was a military prince, but outside, being a Colonel was more than enough.

The elite soldiers and generals who came out of the Han Dynasty's first elite army are so awesome that I can't explain them.

Captain Feng arrived in Hanjia, and because he knew a few words, he became one of the leaders of the garrison in the county.

When leading his men through a village at the foot of the mountain, Lieutenant Feng suddenly pulled the reins and dismounted, cursing:

"What's going on with this village? I asked them to patch up the hole last time, but why haven't they done it yet? If we're really attacked by the barbarians in the mountains, we're going to kill a bunch of people!"

"Rest where you are! You guys come with me!"

The villagers had seen Colonel Feng early, and when they saw him leading people towards the gate of the village, people from the village hurriedly came out to greet him.

"What's going on? Didn't I ask you to repair it last time?"
