Chapter 1175: Family Feast Reward
Mai Ke roughly told the three people what he thought, and then put forward the specific task.
"That's probably it, you need to go to someone, find that Sanjo family, it's best to see the person in charge directly, just tell him, if they want to change the current shogunate rule, get rid of those bad habits that follow the old ways and hinder advanced technology, it is Dongying who can survive and become stronger, you can come to the Heavenly Army to talk, and I Mai Ke can help them!"
As soon as the task came out, the pig's head and donkey's head were honest.
Not to mention that they can't find the gate of the three families, even if they find it, they can't enter!
They are just Dongying Ronin, where can they casually ascend to the Hall of Elegance?
If you fight, you can rush straight in!
"I'd better go!" Yokoji Shunzo thought for a moment and resolutely asked for his life.
"Okay! Tell me why you can go. "The candidate in Mai Ke's mind is actually him.
The other two, fighting and killing are the best choices, and don't expect to engage in some diplomacy or something.
"My eldest brother Yokoji Shunichi is familiar with Sanjo Masao, and the Yokoji Jun family also has people who work in the Sanjo family, that kid and I are the best, called Yokoji Shunten, hehe! I went directly to see Sanjo Masao, I guess there is no problem. ”
Yokoji Shunzo said confidently.
"Okay! I'll leave this matter to you! But time is tight, I'll send you there at once! If they agree to talk, tell me at once, and I'll rush over when the time is the place. ”
Mai Ke immediately confirmed that the matter was handed over to Yokoji Shunzo, and told him that the two of them must meet before four o'clock in the afternoon, otherwise, there would be no need to talk about it.
Then, Mai Ke used the spirit rhino to move according to the location set by Yokoji Shunzo. Send him over.
After sending the messenger away, Mai Ke was about to go to see the progress of the three-in-one, stopped again, thought about it, and got in touch with Zhang Zhidong.
Zhang Zhidong is now with Sanjo Yuyu, cooperating with Zuo Zongtang to deal with the Russian forces in Siberia. I was very interested in doing it, and I was very proud.
I've never been so happy!
That's a big deal!
Mai Ke's principle has long been given to them, as long as it does not go against the interests of the Heavenly Army, they can play it at will!
Zhang Zhidong and Zuo Zongtang don't say it, it's Tojo Beautiful, and they both show their skills.
Of course, Mai Ke would not restrict her from contributing to the kingdom of heaven, because he knew that these three were very assertive, but as soon as he met Zhang Zhidong. He is her opinion, and he will never disobey it.
Therefore, Mai Ke only needs to trust Zhang Zhidong.
And the Sanjo family, too, does have a very strong support for Sanjo Beauty, and it really wants to give something!
When Mai Ke contacted Zhang Zhidong, he was discussing things with Sao Miu and Zuo Zongtang.
"Mai Ke, at that time, there was nothing to do in the Three Treasures Palace, what happened to Dongying?" As the de facto son-in-law of the Sanjo family, he was still very concerned about Mai Ke's military operations there.
In fact. He doesn't care and can't, Sanjo gracefully cares.
This kind of human nature. He Zhang Zhidong is naturally considerate.
"It's going to be in Edo soon, I need you to come over with a three-piece grace, can you get out?"
looked at the three beautiful and earnest eyes, and if you can't get out, you have to be able to!
"When will you go?" Zhang Zhidong didn't talk nonsense.
"Now, you go straight to Edo with Sanjo Yuki, that's no problem, right?"
"No problem! just go to this place. Eimi Sanjo had already written a note and handed it over, which was a top-secret location for her in Edo.
Mai Ke said hello to Zuo Zongtang. Then he used the spirit rhino to move and sent the two to the designated place.
Masao Sanjo was standing on the top floor of a five-story building.
This is already the tallest residential building in the whole of Edo.
This building is actually the core of the Sanjo family, and Sanjo Masao spends most of his time. It's all spent here.
And most of his time is on his current level.
The area of the fifth floor, at least a thousand square meters, is only a small room in each of the four corners, and the rest of the place is empty, that is, a hall.
He was in this hall, and he could look at the scenery in all directions, from the east-facing windows, and even the ships on the sea.
The location of this building is in the middle of Shitamachi and Yamanooite.
Shitamachi is equivalent to the lower town in English, which is the place where the people of the so-called city live.
In fact, these places are inhabited by businessmen and industrialists.
The foundation and economic foundation of the Sanjo family are actually in Shitamachi.
The family's main house was built here, that is, for the convenience of this place.
In fact, the economy of Shitamachi is basically controlled by the Sanjo family.
To the west of this building is the residential area known as the "Hand of the Mountain", also known as the aristocratic quarter.
These areas at the foot of the mountain are described as "the hands of the mountain" because they are affected by the river and become ravines and ravines, so they look like the palms of the hands.
Because it is backed by high mountains and far away from the sea, it is favored by these people of high status, and it has become the best choice for them to live in, and then it has become an area that they dominate.
The family of the Tokugawa shogunate lived there.
Due to the characteristics of the feudal system, government decrees were issued from wherever people were, so the Yasanade area became the political center of the whole country of Dongying Island.
At that time, with political power, there was also control of the economy.
No matter how financially strong the Sanjo family is, it must obey the Tokugawa family, at least superficially.
If there is really a direct conflict, money will not be able to kill the guns and the national forces that support it, unless they want to rebel.
However, if you can't do it on the surface, it doesn't mean that the Sanjo family is ready to be slaughtered by others.
In fact, the Sanjo clan had long had its own armament, which in number and equipment even surpassed the Tokugawa clan's army.
Their soldiers come from the so-called lower strata of the society that are discriminated against, and if they are in the ranks, they can get rid of this state of discrimination, at least temporarily.
Entering these armed forces not only has a temporary change, but also can be used to refer to battles, accumulate military exploits, get promotions, receive rewards, and finally change one's economic status, and even break away from one's lower identity and upgrade to the upper class.
In fact, the Sanjo family itself is a member of the upper class, but unlike other members of the upper class, they are willing to be close to the lower class and can accommodate them.
One of the encouragements for those armies is to be able to level up to the three clans, and then follow this channel to become a member of the upper echelons.
Masao Sanjo has been here for three or four hours today.
He actually fled back two days ago.
almost lost his life, which made him deeply feel the dilemma of being beaten if he fell behind!
Now, the biggest crisis facing the island country is not the dispute between the reform and the old, but the extinction of the country!
The combined forces of the United States and Russia, the terrifying Celestial Army, could easily run rampant in any part of the island nation.
In fact, so far, he has not seen the strength of the two fleets of the United States and Russia.
Even in this situation, the Tokugawa family remained stubborn.
Yesterday, he made an appointment with Tokugawa Iekei, who was not only the patriarch of the Tokugawa family today, but also the head of the Tokugawa shogunate, and the official position of the former minister and shogun of the Tokugawa Shogunate. General Zhengyi.
He is a powerful minister in the hands of the Minister of Military Affairs, and he is full of words.
Sanjo Masao wanted to introduce him to the strength and danger of the enemy, and then seek cooperation to fight the enemy together and overcome the national disaster together, but she was extremely disappointed.
Tokugawa Iekei not only rejected him completely, but also didn't even bother to listen to him.
The danger of his life, the strength of the enemy's fleet and army, coupled with the loss of Ezo and the loss of the Tsugaru Strait in the first place, made him drowsy when he listened, and finally snored loudly!
An old man who looked like a housekeeper came out at that time, sighed, and resolutely invited him out, saying that the master would not allow anyone to disturb him anymore.
He took advantage of the excitement and went home, and what he got was complete despair!
His ideal is to rejuvenate the country with science and technology, rejuvenate the country with industry and commerce, establish a powerful Dongying island country, and then occupy Asia and dominate the world!
I don't want to do that now, just survive!
was thinking about how to break this deadlock, and suddenly the captain of the chamberlain came to report, and the Yokoji Jun family asked to see him.
Hmm, who's coming to see me at this time? What do you mean?
However, Sanjo and Yokoji Jun have been very close, and they can't be seen, and they don't have an idea of how to break the game, maybe someone can be inspired?
See you at once!
After a while, the guest was ushered over, and it was Shunzo Yokoji!
Yokoji Shunzo conveyed Mai Ke's words, which immediately aroused great interest and high attention from Masao Sanjo!
This heroic character, he doesn't know that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
He vaguely felt that this was the only way for the Sanjo family to survive and live better.
Since he had such an understanding, he immediately made a decision, and when he saw Mai Ke, it was noon, any place, and he was ready to listen to the arrangement.
His posture was very low, indicating that he would not fight against the Heavenly Army, but only obey orders and let them be disposed of.
Yokoji Shunzo immediately reported Sanjo Masao's attitude and decision to Mai Ke, and Mai Ke immediately decided to meet at noon, and the location was at Sanjo Masao's mansion.
He would go to the meeting alone, accompanied by a hundred and eight guards, but they would not be in the talks.
As soon as Sanjo Masao heard Mai Ke's reply, he was overjoyed!
Although he said in a high profile that he could go anywhere, he really dispatched him at will, and his mood was very different.
The mentality of the island country is still extremely face-conscious!
In fact, Mai Ke had other considerations in this arrangement, he was respectful of Zhang Zhidong's father-in-law!
As for security, he is foolproof, not to mention his own toughness, but also his entire guard, one hundred and eight generals, all of them are humanoid fortresses!
To put it mildly, it is a kind of invincible existence in the world!.
