Nobukata Ueda was also very happy, saying, "With this money, we can hold out until next year!" There is no need to sell the iron cannons, all of them are used to defend the city! ”

Sanada Yutaka hurriedly paused: "Ha~ha!" Lord, so what is the attitude of Murakami's palace? ”

Ueda Nobukata put away the list and said with a smile: "Such a good thing, how can the lord not support me?" As for who wants to cut off the beard? That also depends on whether they have the strength to face the invasion of the Takeda family, they don't have the courage yet.

Hehehe, those retainers are just cubs hiding behind the lord's wings, and I am the man whom my enemies call Shinano demons.

Even if the tiger that came out of the Kai Mountain, I will let him avoid me for three points! Kotaka, look, my martial arts are about to start from this Kitasa-Saku! ”

Sanada Yutaka nodded very hard, agreeing with what Ueda Nobukata said, after all, it was also a difficult thing for him to be able to sweep more than a dozen cities in Kitasaku in a few days.

Sanada Yutaka left very energetically, he was going to preside over the repair of the castle, as for the training of the army, Ueda Nobukata did not hand it over to him, but let a newly promoted samurai preside.

This samurai was given the surname Higashino by Ueda Nobukata, named Higashino Nobukatsu, and he suddenly stepped from an ordinary person to the aristocracy, and it was a great honor for him to be given the surname.

So Higashino Nobukatsu has no problem at all when it comes to loyalty.

The reason why it was handed over to Higashino Nobukatsu was because he had been following him for a long time, from the beginning when he was a low-ranking samurai.

So he felt that this Higashino Nobukatsu was lucky, he didn't die in several wars, and he made a lot of contributions, and he was also very familiar with his training methods, so he was promoted.

Ueda Nobukata has too few henchmen in his hands, Iwasita Ryu and Yazaki Heizou are barely counted, as for the Youzu family is for Youzu Township, the Sanada family will be under his command for the sake of Sanada Township.

Kamizu's virtuous words promised to give him Shiga Castle, the residence of the Kasawara family, when the time came, and he could also rein in his loyalty.

Ueda Nobukata has no choice, so for the time being, he can only promote some people who have no foundation, but have some ability, as his henchmen.

Of course, everyone else knew about Ueda Nobukata's current embarrassing situation, but everyone pretended to be confused and didn't say anything.

After Ueda Nobukata disposed of the money and grain, he first went to see the progress of repairing the castle, and in the past two days, more than 200 samurai supervised and more than 2,000 ashigaru built the former mountain castle. Everything was in accordance with the divisional cooperation arranged by Nobukata Ueda.

When Ueda Nobukata came to the construction site of the castle repair, there were busy ashigaru everywhere, and they would stop and bow when they saw Ueda Nobukata.

Ueda Nobukata also nodded in response, and said kindly: "Work hard, work hard, the stronger this city is, the safer you will be!" ”

After encouraging this group of people, he then ran to the other group and said, "Sons, this is a good exercise, shed tears in the cold winter, strengthen your body, and you will become the best warriors, even samurai, in the future!" ”

Ueda Nobukata's encouragement is really exciting, and although it is said that Ashigaru has stepped into the samurai class with one foot, he still has not been able to break away from the concept of commoners.

Most of the ashigaru struggled to death and were still ashigaru, just like Fang Toyotomi Hideji's father, who was also a ashigaru until death, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi had to follow his mother to someone else's house.

At that time, it was a normal thing, you died as an ashigaru war, and you would get a sum of money, but the family couldn't hold on to the money for long, so the wife would remarry, and maybe the son would take someone else's surname.

It's tragic, here, if there are no descendants to inherit your surname, then your family is considered extinct.

Therefore, becoming a samurai is the only way out for Ashigaru.

What Ueda Nobukata said is like: as long as you work hard, you can work hard from employees to management, and then go to the peak of life, and have the opportunity to marry Bai Fumei.

Who wouldn't be excited? The ashigaru people directly shouted the wisdom of the lord!

Ueda Nobukata walked around and found that the progress of the project was okay, and the transformation of the former mountain castle could be completed in half a month at most, and the next step was to introduce river water into the moat.

It is much easier to build a waterwheel here, and the carpenters are no strangers to the waterwheel, so they only need to mention a little bit of bamboo to make pipes, so that the water can be brought up.

Or let people carry the snow directly, transport it to the trench, and wait for the snow to melt.

Ueda Nobukata returned to the residence, and the castle tower in Maeyama Castle was only two floors, which was not large, and of course it was comfortable in the residence.

When he returned to the house, the house was very busy, because Ueda Nobukata did not have a wife, so it was Satomi Tsutsu who led the servants and samurai women such as Shinobu and the family of Ashigaru to make rice balls or hot rice.

Satomi Youzu happened to pass by in a hurry, saw the very leisurely Ueda Nobukata, glared at him, and said, "The husband is really leisurely, but the concubine is busy from morning to night!"

The concubine is just a side room in terms of status, but now she is doing the work of the main room, doesn't the husband find a wife in the main room as soon as possible? ”

Ueda Nobukata waved his hand and said, "Mrs. Masamuro can marry so quickly, and my status will rise, so Mrs. Masamuro's family background must at least be like that of the lord's family."

Also, I just came back to rest, you don't know, I went to find someone to solve the matter of money and food, and said unceremoniously, the money and food I got from going out this time is enough for us to cage for a year. ”

Satomi Youzu was surprised: "A year? Will Murakami give so much? No way, how could he give you so much support. ”

Ueda Nobukata leaned into the ear of Satomi Yuzu and said, "Hehe, I'll borrow money from Tennoji House, 30,000 kan!" ”

"Thirty thousand! Satomi whispered, "How could they lend you so much?" ”

Ueda Nobukata said proudly: "In this world, who is like me to take the land of Kitasa in a few days?" Even Harunobu Takeda wasn't as fast as I was.

And I still have business dealings with Tennojiya, which is a friendship between Tsuda and me, and this is an investment in the future. He earned this Tsuda sect and the money he lent me. ”

When Satomi Ueda saw that Ueda Nobukata was boasting, she pouted unhappily and said, "Okay, okay, the concubine knows that her husband is the most powerful."

Such a powerful husband should solve the matter of Mrs. Maji, Murakami has no daughter to marry you. ”

Ueda Nobukata said solemnly: "Yes, the lord doesn't have a suitable daughter to marry me, why don't you find Ogasawara to protect the temple, he has a daughter of the right age." ”

Thanks for the four points and a thousand tips! Thank you, big guy!
