Chapter 18: Soaring

Three days later, the Edo Monarchy came out with the news that the iron ore in Iron Port Castle had been excavated and there was no iron ore in it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

For a time, the price of iron began to rise wildly, and the price of iron ore was originally only worth 5.73 yuanyu, but now it is constantly rising, 6.73, 7.84, 9.29, 11.9...... In the end, it reached an astonishing 74.3 yuan jade.

Iron ore was in short supply, and some 'visionary' businessmen began to hoard iron ore in large quantities, so that the circulation of iron ore became sluggish.

Out of stock, extremely out of stock, but for six days, there was almost no trace of iron ore on the surface of the iron port city, and those iron shops that made a living from striking iron had no goods to wrought iron. This turmoil soon swept through other surrounding cities, and even other countries, including the Yayoi Kingdom.

At this time, I didn't find anything, because Yasumasa Kamihara came again.

"Your Excellency, after a lot of twists and turns, I finally lived up to your trust and delivered these 'gifts' safely!" Yasumasa Kamihara gasped and said.

"Good, good, that's great!" I said excitedly, "This time I am really fortunate Your Excellency! ā€

"It's not hard, I don't know where the princess is now?" Yasumasa Kamihara wiped the sweat from his head and said.

"This, I'm really sorry, the princess doesn't seem to want to go back, so why don't you let the maid next to the princess give a message to your king?" I said with a smile.

"You, you're breaking the agreement between us!" Yasumasa Kamihara glared at each other and said angrily.

"How can you say that? It's the princess herself who doesn't want to go back, and we can't help it! "I said 'quite distressed'.

"In this case, I wonder if I can say a few words to the princess?" Yasumasa Kamihara gave way.

"No, the princess doesn't want to see outsiders now!" I categorically refused, if I let Yasumasa Kamihara and Akishino Miyayu meet, it wouldn't be a goof.

"......" Akishino Miyaha was dumbfounded, "You, you, you're so shameless!" ā€

"I have won awards," I said with a smile, if something big really happened, with Qiu Xiaogong Yu in hand, I also have room to take the initiative, "This, the princess's maid actually doesn't want to go back, but the princess wants her to go back instead of herself, alas, I can only say that my country's service is indeed too thoughtful, and the princess can't think about it!" ā€

Looking at the despicable and shameless me, and the delicate girl who came in from outside the door, Kamihara Yasumasa lowered his head silently, I really don't know what the expression is, I think, it should be annoyed.

"Your Excellency, how do you feel?" I asked with some weakness.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm distracted, just do what your Excellency wants!" Yasumasa Kamihara said lonely.

"Huh!" Is that the end of it? I thought there was something wrong, but I couldn't find anything wrong, so I had to go according to the original plan.

Maybe others don't care about Akishino Gongyu at all, I secretly figured it out, think about it, in Japan, the status of women is still very underground, and in the face of military affairs, there is nothing that cannot be abandoned. Moreover, Qiu Shino Gongyu is still outcast, and it is obviously not taken seriously by the Snow Mark Kingdom!

No, since Qiu Xiao Gongyu is not taken seriously, and her reputation is not obvious in the Snow Trace Kingdom, how can the current 'princess' be so arrogant and domineering, and she is a nouveau riche image, and her relationship with the 'maid' is not like a master and servant at all.

On the contrary, when he first saw the 'maid', he felt the nobility on her body, even in the face of thousands of troops, he was not afraid, and he did not back down before Kanhara Yasumasa saw the maid just now, and after seeing the 'maid', he directly compromised, proving that his current guess is likely to be correct.

Damn, whoever says it's a princess must be the most beautiful, and I'm limited by this habitual thinking.

However, now, others have gone far away, and they can't catch up if they want to. It's his own idea of taking Akishino Gongyu, but now he has lost others, if it spreads, it will inevitably be ridiculed, and most importantly, it will affect his image in the eyes of King Yayoi, so it's better to be wrong, anyway, no one knows about it.

Edo Monarchy, Copper Castle.

Because the price of iron ore was so high, the price of red copper, which could be used as a substitute, also began to rise wildly, rising again and again, and soon more than tenfold.

Many merchants began to hoard red copper, and the circulation of red copper in the market was extremely scarce.

At the same time, the Yayoi Kingdom organized a large chamber of commerce and partnered to travel to the Edo Monarchy.

It's weird, it's really weird, after I'm busy with the things in the Snow Scar Kingdom, I'm also an idler, and I've heard the news of the skyrocketing price of iron ore and red copper, which reminds me of China's futures market, which seems to be thriving like this.

In the palace of the Yayoi Kingdom, King Yayoi looked at the fold in his hand and showed an incredible expression, "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible, this must be a fake!" How could the Snowmark Kingdom be willing to pay such a big price to redeem a person! ā€

Under the throne, the ministers were also confused, what happened to provoke King Yayoi, who has always been calm and calm, to make such a fuss.

"See for yourselves!" A eunuch on the left took the fold from King Yayoi's hand and passed it to the ministers for viewing.

"How is this possible? No matter how expensive a person is, it is impossible to have so much wealth and so many armaments, this is absolutely fake! Sugatani said suspiciously.

"Yes, even the Snowmark Kingdom may not be able to come up with so much wealth. Even if you take it out, for a woman, even if she is a princess, it's not worth it! Shuichi Hasegawa couldn't believe his eyes.

......

For a time, many ministers were so angry that they couldn't believe their eyes, and they even believed that this memo was forged.

"Enough! Above the main hall, what kind of system is it to shout like this! Besides, don't you all think that's true? Takeda Genshin said in a deep voice.

"This," Fukutomi Hidekatsu said, glancing at King Yayoi on the throne, "Lord Takeda, you should know that the tax burden of our country in a year is less than one-tenth of the gifts given by the Snowmark Kingdom, and even if the Snowmark Kingdom is the richest kingdom, it is impossible to be so extravagant!" ā€

"Yes, and Princess Snowmark is still in the royal city now, how could the Snowmark Kingdom give us these 'gifts' so easily without a diplomatic protest!" Hori Hidemasa flatly denied it.

"Hmph, you don't want to think about it, Yitian, is he really an idiot?" Takeda Genshin said angrily, "As far as I know about him, he is delicate and will never do such a thing out of nothing!" Even if he cheats, he will be debunked so easily, will he lie? Moreover, since the Snowmark Kingdom has sent so many gifts to the kingdom, as long as we ask the head of the treasury, won't everything be clear? ā€

"It's true that no one would be stupid enough to panic like this, but I just don't understand how the Snowmark Kingdom could send such a large fortune at this time." King Yayoi said suspiciously.

"Is there a map? Get the map! Takeda Genshin's eyes lit up and he said.

"Huh?" King Yayoi was stunned for a moment, and ordered the eunuchs below to bring a map over.

"I see!" Takeda Genshin showed a wry smile.

"Takeda-kun, what the hell is going on?" King Yayoi asked eagerly.

"Look!" Takeda Genshin put the map on the table and said, "This area is the territory of the Asuka Kingdom that we have captured, and the territory happens to be fully connected to the Kamakura Kingdom. ā€

"What's wrong with that?" King Yayoi asked curiously.

"Originally, there was no problem, but everyone should have heard about the current situation in the Edo Monarchy!" Takeda Genshin took a deep breath and continued.

"Well, I heard that iron ore and red copper have risen to the sky, and even my country has formed a chamber of commerce to go to the Edo monarchy to dig for gold!" King Yayoi said.

"That's it, the Kamakura Kingdom is a vassal state of the Edo Monarchy, once the Edo Monarchy intends to attack our country, then the Kamakura Kingdom is the vanguard!" Takeda Genshin tapped the table and said viciously.

"How so? Our country and the Edo monarchy have no grievances, how could they think of attacking us? King Yayoi asked, puzzled.

"I don't know the details of this, but I believe that the king of the Snow Mark Kingdom should have seen the clues, he probably didn't want us to be defeated, so he used the excuse of redeeming the princess to fund our country's armament, financial resources, and grain and grass!" Takeda Xuanxin sighed and said, "These, this kid Yitian should also have guesses, you see, in the twists and turns, he put forward similar conjectures, and finally put forward a proposal to quickly expand the army!" ā€

"Damn, who the hell is it, it's really too insidious to calculate my country like this!" King Yayoi said angrily.

"I think, this matter should have nothing to do with the Asuka Kingdom, you see the location distribution of the cities they surrendered, which just puts our country under the attack range of the Kamakura Kingdom!" Takeda Genshin had a headache and said, "To fight against a behemoth like the Edo Monarchy, it's a bit of a big head to think about." ā€

"What then?" King Yayoi was also a big head, and asked Takeda Genshin, "Why don't you, Takeda-kun, go to guard Mie Castle, what do you think?" ā€

"Your Majesty, if ten years ago, my old bones could still desperately defend the country for the country. But now, my life is nearing, and this war will not end in a short time, but I am afraid that I am powerless! Takeda Genshin said helplessly, "However, in my lifetime, I will never let a single soldier of the Kamakura Kingdom step into my Yayoi Kingdom." ā€

"This, Takeda-kun, but there is a suitable person who can withstand the attack of the Kamakura Kingdom?" King Yayoi asked worriedly.

"If the king believes me, when I return, I can make Yitian the commander and Chiyo as the temperance! In this way, it can ensure that Yayoi is not easy to master! Takeda Xuanxin suggested.

"This, if you don't let Chiyo be handsome and Li Yitian as a supplement, what do you think?" King Yayoi hesitated for a moment and said.

"Chiyo, this kid, is loyal, but he has enough courage and lack of strategy, and it may not be enough to rely on him to resist the attack of the Kamakura Kingdom!" Takeda Xuanxin analyzed, "Li Yitian, although we have known each other for a short time, I believe that as long as the king can support him unreservedly, he will definitely do his best for the country and keep the kingdom for thousands of years." ā€

"Since Takeda-kun said so, then let Li Yitian attack, accept the reward, and let him be in charge of a legion alone!" King Yayoi nodded, expressing his willingness to obey Takeda Genshin's arrangement, "As long as he shows enough loyalty, within a hundred years, I will make him the Grand Governor!" ā€

"I'm the kid on behalf of Yitian, thank the king for his kindness!" A glimmer of light flashed in Takeda Xuanxin's eyes.

In the 1st Division of the 3rd Army.

The moment I took the royal decree from the eunuch's hand with my finger, suddenly, countless golden lights rushed straight into my body.

After obtaining the second-class meritorious fame, I felt that the vitality around me, and my affinity, had increased by one level again, the speed of cultivation had increased again, and most importantly, without any obstacles, I had entered the cyclone realm so easily.

This fame is really a wonderful thing, I really don't know how it came about, and how it produced this magical effect, perhaps, only after you really become the king of a country, you can understand it.

"Congratulations Captain!" A eunuch smiled and congratulated.

"Thank you, Kuwabara-sama, why don't you stay for dinner!" I politely invited.

"This has nothing to do with the miscellaneous family, if you want to thank you, thank Lord Takeda. It was his strong recommendation that the king made an exception to promote you to the commander of the legion! Kuwabara Luzang said solemnly, "It's not too early now, we should also go back to the palace to say goodbye to the king!" ā€

"I'll send you!" I said.

"No, farewell!" After Kuwabara Luzo finished speaking, he walked out of the barracks and quickly left in the direction of the palace.
