钱塘吴氏 / Qiantang Wu Clan

钱塘吴氏 / Qiantang Wu Clan enters the wiki through Hanji 982 as the family behind 吴夫人. The episode says the family is not one of the standard Jiangdong four great families, but it is deeply rooted around Qiantang, the Qiantang River transport system, and salt-and-iron trade.

The source treats the clan as an enabling network for the Sun household. 孙坚’s marriage gives a lower-background military actor access to local gentry and trade routes; 吴景 then carries the military-resource side by supplying 孙策 with Danyang soldiers. Later, 孙权 is said to rely on Qiantang water-route knowledge and old Wu-family standing, making the clan part of 姻亲资源建构.
