Not long after Chen Bing stayed in this increasingly prosperous port, he came to Jeju Island. This Yangma Island was named by the governor himself. He was very curious.

At this time, Jeju Island has become an important transit route between the north and the south. Goryeo's population of millions and its huge aristocratic system have made Lingnan merchants very profitable. Along with this, Jeju Island's port business is also booming.

no.

Especially after the Khitans were invaded by the Northern Expedition of the Later Zhou Dynasty, they were still in fear. After banning trade with the Han people, Jeju Island finally became the busiest port in the north.

The Koreans, Japanese, Bohai people, Jurchens, Khitan people, and Han people all restrained their tempers and lived in peace, which is really rare.

The port is very large, almost the size of a county town. Most of them are shops, and the rest are all inns. There are basically no residential buildings. In other words, all ordinary people are in Jeju City, which is ten kilometers away from the port. There is no leisure time.

port.

The merchants and sailors who come and go are all short of money, so prices are extremely high. A meal costs more than a hundred dollars, and a bucket of rice costs as much as a hundred dollars. Only beef and mutton are cheap, because it is close to Khitan and Liaodong.

Before they could be surprised for a moment, Chen Bing and others arrived at Jeju City and were taken to a horse farm outside the city. They met some Han people wearing mink velvet.

"This -" Chen Bing was a little surprised. He didn't know what to do with these Han people. Fortunately, the guide solved the problem in time.

"These are Bohai people, not Han people!"

I heard that the Bohai Kingdom admired the Tang Dynasty and adapted to Chinese culture. I never thought that today I would finally see it. It is really the same as the Han people. I don’t know what the Chinese language is like...

"I've met Mr. Lang!" The hundreds of people in front of them responded in unison, with great momentum.

"From today on, this gentleman will be your leader. Now that the weather is cold and the mountains are closed with heavy snow, you can train here!"

The guide's status was not low. I heard that he was the steward of the Lord's Palace of Jeju City. As soon as he finished speaking, the group of people agreed again.

"This trip to Theorem Mansion (Vladivostok) is a deserted place. There are more wild wolves than people, and there are also big insects with bloody mouths. Without cooperation, we won't survive for long!"

The manager ignored these Bohai people and was quite polite to Chen Bing:

"These Bohai people are all hunters in the mountains and come from the north. Apart from their cooperation, Lang Jun can also relax!"

"So, thank you City Lord -" Chen Bing couldn't help but be overjoyed. He had made such preparations before arriving, so it would be much easier to go to that place in the forest next year.

"Don't do this!" the steward quickly replied:

"Young Master went to the North, and if you gain anything, it will definitely benefit us in Jeju. This help is for our own sake, so you don't need to be so polite, Mr. Lang!"

Even so, it was still a great help to him, and Chen Bing felt instantly relieved.

With the help of these 100 Bohae locals and the continuous support from Jeju Island, we will definitely achieve our goal this time and achieve great success.

Just when Chen Bing was confidently establishing his great cause, the ordinary people in Panyu City had already begun their daily life.

"Zhang Dutou, you have a rest today! Walk slowly -" Just as we reached the entrance of the camp, on the high tower, a whistler carrying a bow and arrow shouted loudly.

"Yes! I've been busy for half a month, it's time for me to take a rest!"

Looking up, Zhang Long responded with a smile and put his backpack behind his back. He went home today and was in a good mood.

Along the way, many people greeted him, and he responded positively. After all, he was the captain, and he was considered a high-ranking official in this military camp.

As an officer, he had a special carriage to serve him. As soon as he arrived at Yingkou, a gray carriage came over. Zhang Long jumped on it and said, "Hurry up -"

he urged.

"Yes, yes!" The groom was very polite and glanced at the long sword embroidered on his robe with envy. The person who had this embroidered on his robe was a high-ranking official.

His home was in the city, in Xicheng District, and the military camp was only twenty miles away from his home. Within an hour, the carriage stopped:

"General, we're here!" the groom said politely.

Zhang Long got off the carriage and looked at his home, a little unbelievable.

The original dilapidated threshold has been renovated long ago, and the leaky wooden door has been replaced and is now painted, shiny and beautiful.

There are three stone steps in front of the door, with two little lions placed on each side, and the floor tiles are laid flat. It is obviously very luxurious.

He couldn't believe it, this was his home.

I especially remember that although the courtyard of his house was relatively spacious, it had long since fallen into decline. Even though he was an officer in the military, he could barely feed his family and had only a few changes of clothes.

Moreover, in the early days, my family was from a scholarly family, so I had no choice but to join the army. After all, in Lingnan, the military was a cheap job. Those who enlisted in the army were either ruffians or criminals, and the better ones were just refugees.

There is no future, and all relatives at home have long since stopped contacting him.

The neighbors suddenly became much more enthusiastic about him, and the previous cynicism was completely gone. Their dislike for his status as a soldier had turned into envy, and they even tried to get his nephew to join the Forbidden Army and get a job in a roundabout way.

Zhang Long was inexplicably surprised. Isn't this soldier a humble person? He changed so quickly? It was hard for him to adapt.

I met Zhang Long on the roadside. He was also polite to Zhang Long and asked about his welfare.

"Aunt?" Zhang Long called out tentatively as he looked at the chubby woman in front of him, carrying a silver hairpin and running towards her with small steps. After all, he had no contact with her for a long time.

"Hey? Isn't this Da Lang? Isn't he serving in the army? Why are you back today?" The aunt twisted her fat waist and asked kindly.

"It's my turn to rest today, so I'll come back and take a look!" Zhang Long was a little embarrassed and uncomfortable.

"Good come back, good come back!" The aunt quickly smiled and said: "Your mother-in-law called me here just to arrange a marriage for you. Now the elder man has a prosperous official career, a bright future, and a prosperous family business. Many young ladies are begging me.

Miles!"

It's strange, my family has been in decline for a long time, and I haven't contacted my aunt for many years. Why is she so enthusiastic now?

With a head full of doubts, Zhang Long entered the house, met his parents who had changed their hair, and his younger brothers and sisters who had changed into new clothes. Only then did Zhang Long know the real reason.

He participated in the battle to conquer Annan last time and was rewarded with dozens of coins and five acres of land. The family had a completely new look and changed its appearance.

What's more important is that the local county government attaches great importance to this. The government officials helped repair the concierge, and the head of the army also came to visit and gave gifts. The shops and objects that were pawned after the family declined have already been returned, and the family property has been returned.

The child will be abundant.

"Son, those people you sent home have all bought fields. Including the fields you rewarded, our family has fifteen acres of land. Plus the shops redeemed this time, our Zhang family can be considered a family.

Already."

My father was so relieved, with a smile on his eyebrows:

"I heard that Governor Li is planning to reward some houses in the inner city, am I sure?"

"This is the inner city, where dignitaries live. They are either rich or noble. If our Zhang family can have this moment, it will be worth it!"

After hearing this, Zhang Long realized that it was he who had made great contributions these days, and that was why his family had improved a lot.

"Your second brother is almost eighteen. Find a way to send him to the Forbidden Army——"

His father's words once again made him wonder, isn't being a soldier a despicable profession? When did it become so rare again?

"You don't know that after Zhengnan came back, every family member who went to Annan would become rich immediately, cutting meat and fish, all over the street!"
