Early the next morning, Yan Liqiang brought Qian Su and Lu Wenbin to investigate Yingwei County's border trading post. Although the construction was funded by Yan Liqiang, this was his first time to visit the place as the Protectorate General.
The border trading post was a large market that existed as a convenient venue for the Great Han Empire to trade with the surrounding foreign lands.
The Yingwei County border trading post was initially set up to facilitate trading with the minor tribes on Mount Jade Dragon. It was a pawn that Yan Liqiang had planted long ago. Back then, the border trading post wasn't exactly lively until Yan Liqiang and Wang Jianbei drove all the Shatu people in Pingxi City away. Part of the remaining Shatu people in Pingxi Prefecture were driven to Yingwei County too. If the Shatu people wished to continue doing business in Pingxi Prefecture, then they could only carry their business out in the border trading post.
