Chapter 160: A Peerless General
After arriving at the mountain pass, others only saw Higashimenkei and Ouchi Yoshitaka looking for joy day and night, but they couldn't see Yu Buqi secretly busy negotiating with the retainers of the Ouchi family!
Although Qing Huaxiang was in a hurry to wait for the money, the policy of the East 'Gate' Qing had already been decided, so he was not in a hurry without quitting, and he did not speak first, waiting for the people of the Ouchi family to find the 'door', and said that he would have to wait for the goods to be transported to Hirado next year.
So he was in no hurry, but the people of the Ouchi family were in a hurry. There is a huge demand for Chinese goods throughout Japan! Because supply exceeds demand, and there is no absolute guarantee of maritime transportation, tomorrow's trade in this era is completely a seller's market. Originally, Sagara Takeren and others were also old gingers, but in the context of such a general trend, they were still led by Yu Buqi! In the end, Yu Buzhi "reluctantly" agreed to leave them with 500 to 1,000 materials.
The next step is the negotiation on the price, the Ouchi family is hoping that Qing Huaxiang will see the good relationship between the two families, and sell the goods to the Ouchi family at the usual price. ”
I ran to ask the East 'Gate' Qing, and came back and said: "We are in charge of the house, and the gentleman does not speak for profit!" He didn't care about business. He and Ouchi-sama hit it off at first sight, and the next time they come to Japan, they will definitely give a generous gift, and as for business matters, don't talk about it. After relaying the words of the Higashimon celebration, he said, "Then let's 'trade' at the market price when we came to Japan." ”
Ouchi's retainers looked at each other, and they all felt that this could only ensure the supply of goods, but they could not take any advantage in the price, so they asked Yu to give a discount, and said: "After all, we are ordering, and after we place an order, your account will not worry about selling, so please also ask the shopkeeper to give us some profit on the price." ”
Yu Buqi sneered and laughed: "What is the market now, we know each other!" As soon as China's goods arrive in Hirado, they will be robbed! There is only worry about what you can't buy, where will you worry about what you can't sell! "I bite and refuse to let go.
Ouchi's retainers said that they were willing to make a deposit first, and Yu Buqi was so moved that he almost agreed, but he still endured it and said, "There are also a few families over there in Hirado who are willing to make a deposit, and they are ordered according to this year's price, but we haven't even promised them the amount of goods!" ”
Ouchi's retainers couldn't, so they had to disperse. Yu Buci was a little worried that they would give up, but at night, Yoshimi Masarari, the important minister of the Ouchi family, 'touched' in, which startled Yu Buci, thinking that he was going to come to the wrong place to 'touch' at night! After asking, I found out that Yoshimi Masanori was here to bribe him! He had an idea, and said, "I don't dare to accept this gift." But if you can give me the payment first, I can give you a 95% discount! ”
Yoshimi said, "You mean the deposit?" ”
Yu Buzhi said: "It's not a deposit, it's a payment!" Full! ”
Yoshimi Masayori was a little hesitant when he heard this, but thought: "The East 'Gate' army is powerful in Kyushu!" He is also the minister in charge of trade in the East Gate! I don't expect to disregard the future and embezzle my money! "The mind has been decided, but I want to give a lower discount, so I don't quit to say that it will be nine folds, Yoshimi is refusing, saying seven folds, and it took nearly half an hour to reach an agreement on eight folds, and set a Japanese raw silk with a market value of eight thousand taels for six thousand four hundred taels of silver.
After he left, Yu Buci found that Yoshimi didn't take the gift away, and when he was about to drive it out, someone from the shirt family, another important minister of the Ouchi family, 'touched' in, pulled Yu Buci and said, "Yu is the shopkeeper!" You're too favoritism! ”
Yu Buqi was stunned, and when he asked, he learned that the people of the shirt family also came to bribe, and he was lying outside just now, and the secret discussion between him and Yoshimi Masayori was listened to by the people of the shirt family! The people of the shirt family asked Yu Buqi to give them the same conditions, but they couldn't, so they had to agree, and the people of the shirt family went happily after getting his promise, and left the gift when they left.
Five groups of people came one after another this night, and they didn't have to sleep! But because of the negotiation of five large deals, the 'spirit' was full of energy, and the next day he brought five gifts to the East 'Gate' to celebrate and told the night about the night.
Dongmen' Qing smiled: "Good, good! ”
Yu Buzhi said: "It's a pity that there is no big one." ”
The east 'gate' celebrated: "A little adds up! What's more, there are a lot of these! Moreover, it is more beneficial to talk separately than to talk about it together. The dark box 'trade' is more greasy than the 'trade' on the stage. Hey, hey, you're doing a great job this time. ”
Yu Buzhi took out the bribes he received and asked what to do with the East Gate, and the East Gate" Qing said: "Confiscation!" You go back and 'hand' it over to Anthony, let him count it, put it in the warehouse, and then take it out again, which is considered a reward for you - this time you have worked hard, and you deserve it. ”
The East 'Gate' Qing stayed in the mountain pass for a few more days, and in these days, there were as many as thirteen wealthy families of all sizes who secretly came to find it! Each one has ordered a lot of goods, so they don't hesitate to collect money! Sagara Takeren finally heard the news, and secretly cried bitterly: "The people of Ouchi are not in harmony! People are not in harmony! All of them are for themselves, hiding from the lord to 'forgot' with foreigners! After crying for a while, I came to look for it that night.
Tao Longfang also heard about this, and he also ordered some goods, but Yu Buzhi didn't sell him an iron cannon after all, and there was no shadow of the big barrel, which inevitably made him angry.
Seeing that the business was almost done, he came to say goodbye and told Yoshitaka Ouchi that he wanted to visit the world and Beijing to see the economic, political and cultural centers of Japan, and wondered if he could help arrange the itinerary. Ouchi Yoshitaka said: "This matter is not difficult! He arranged for the East 'Gate' Qing to take the land route first, from Anyi to the border, and said: "After arriving in Anyi, let the people of the 'Mao' Li family arrange it." ”
"'Mao' Lijia?" Dongmen' Qing said: "I don't have a 'friendship' with them, I don't know if they are willing to shelter." ”
Ouchi Yoshitaka smiled and said: "The governor of the 'Mao' Li family, Yuan, is also my retainer, I write two letters for you to carry, one for Yuan and one for Longyuan, they will definitely treat you well after they get my letter." ”
Dongmen' Qing had also heard of An Yiguo's 'Mao' Li Yuan's name, and knew that this person was known as the "peerless wisdom general" in Japan, and later asked this peerless wisdom general the territory that had been conquered, but it was not as big as a county in China. At this time, the power of 'Mao' Li Yuan's has gradually 'forced' Ouchi, but it is still nominally a subsidiary of the Ouchi family, and the eldest son of 'Mao' Li Yuan's grandson 'Mao' Li Takato has been a hostage in the Ouchi family for a long time, and married Yoshitaka's adopted 'daughter', which is also the 'son' son-in-law of Ouchi Yoshitaka, so Ouchi Yoshitaka wrote a letter to the 'Mao' Li father and son at the same time.
Before leaving, Yoshitaka Ouchi and Acai were very reluctant, and repeatedly advised: "When you come back from Kyoto, remember to come to Yamaguchi again." ”
The east 'gate' celebrated: "Definitely! ”
After leaving the city, Tang Xiuji persuaded: "There are many thieves on land, it is better to take the waterway and go directly to the boundary, why bother to seek the protection of the 'Mao' Li family?" It's not safe to look at people's faces again! We have a strong presence at sea and are not afraid of any obstacles, which is much safer than walking on land. ”
The East Gate Qing also knew that this theory was reasonable, but he did not respond, only Yu Buzhi knew that the East Gate Qing took the land route to see the Daimyo sell next year's goods along the way, but this mind could not be broken. At present, the army is still marching by land and water. Dongmenqing brought Li Rongjiu, fifteen swordsmen, five musketeers including Kavala, and a total of thirty-one people, including Yu Buxi, to An Yiguo.
Not long after leaving the city, he heard the sound of horses' hooves, and Li Chengtai exclaimed: "Don't let Tang Leader say it!" Encountered thieves! ”
The East Gate Qing rebuked: "Don't talk nonsense! How far is it out of the city, and there are thieves? ”
Soon several bantam horses rushed closer, but it was Tao Longfang, he caught up with the east 'gate' Qinghou turned over and dismounted, and said: "I will give the son of the east 'gate' a ride!" ”
Dongmen' Qing didn't expect it to be him, he was surprised in his heart, and said with a smile: "Tao Jun is so polite!" ”
Tao Longfang said: "Lord East 'Gate' is a famous general in the world!" As a landlord, I should have come to send! ”
The east 'gate' was stunned and said, "Famous general? Am I a celebrity? ”
Tao Longfang said: "In the previous battle of 'fat', the Lord of the East 'Gate' won a great victory with hundreds of people and thousands of people, ten times the number of enemies, and there are few fierce generals since ancient times!" Rampant 'fat' before and after building, without losing a single soldier, and the enemy is self-defeating, such a strategy is rare in the world! Before the war, Matsuura was in trouble, and the lord of the East 'Gate' was reluctant to give up his friends for the sake of righteousness; after the war, the house of the Ryuzoji Temple was already in ruins, but the Lord of the East 'Gate' abandoned the hatred and became lonely, which was for the sake of benevolence. The East 'Gate' Lord is benevolent, righteous, wise and brave, and is naturally a famous general! ”
Dongmen' Qing was stunned when he heard this, if this was said by people like Tang Xiuji and Zhou Dafu, he would just laugh, but Tao Longfang was known as "the first fierce general in the West" in Japan, and he was not a sycophant, and he looked solemn when he said this, obviously he was convinced of this! After listening to his analysis, Dong 'Men' Qing couldn't help but feel a little fluttery, and thought: "By the way, 'Mao' Liyuan has been tossing in a big place for a palm, and he is already known as a peerless wise general!" I came across the ocean with hundreds of people and swept Kyushu, how can I not be called a famous general! He squinted his eyes and smiled: "Tao Jun has won the prize!" ”
Tao Longfang sent out more than ten miles, resting in the shade of a forest, and when there was no second person next to him, Tao Longfang said: "Lord Dongmen, I am very happy that you are here this time!" I only hope that the lord will admire you after seeing you, and then regain his strength and be aggressive! I didn't expect you to 'spend' Xueyue with our lord all day long and teach my lord badly, which is inevitably disappointing! ”
Dong'men Qing knew that he was different from Ouchi Yoshitaka, Sagara Takeren, etc., because he took his hand and approached and said, "Tao Jun, it's not me who has a bad heart!" It's really a guest and a host! Don't you see the silk and muskets in the box when I give gifts? But what Ouchi-sama picked, you can see. ”
Tao Longfang sighed when he heard this, and the east 'gate' Qing said: "I have come thousands of miles away, and I have no ambitions or intentions for Japan, just to 'make' friends along the way. Talk about heroic things with heroic people, talk about elegant things with elegant people! Ouchi's heart is elegant, so I talked to him about heroes, but he refused to listen to him. ”
Tao Longfang stood up, holding his hands into a fist, as if he was about to fight! But not to fight with people, but with the heavens! shouted: "Lord Dongmen, you are a guest, you can not talk about it, but I ...... I can't help but talk about it! ”
His words were a little 'agitated', and the subordinates of the two looked at it, and they all looked this way, and the east 'gate' Qing hurriedly appeased everyone a few words, and then pulled Tao Longfang out a few steps, and said: "Knowing that it can't be done, although it is worthy of admiration, the hardships are self-evident, and the success is slim." ”
Tao Longfang said: "If the Lord of the East 'Gate' can help me form an iron artillery army, the success will not be slim!" ”
Dongmenqing's heart jumped violently, thinking that your appetite is not small, but his face did not move, he just shook his head and said, "How much does it cost, does Tao Jun know?" ”
Tao Longfang said: "How much money, I'll raise it!" ”
Dong'men Qing said: "It's not just a matter of money - iron cannons and big barrels are not something that can be bought with money. ”
Tao Longfang choked his wrists, and said: "Lord Dongmen, with your discernment, do you think our Da Nei family can still regain its prestige?" ”
Dongmen' Qingdao: "I don't know about Japan's affairs, and I don't dare to say anything. ”
Tao Longfang sighed, very disappointed, and finally said goodbye and went back, and said before leaving: "An Yiguo is mountainous, and 'Mao' Liyuan is a cunning person, and Lord Dong'men are careful all the way!" ”
The east 'gate' celebrated: "Thank you for your concern." ”
pressed the east 'gate' Qingjing to Anyi, but said that after Tao Longfang returned to the mountain pass, he saw that Tao Longfang was still 'obsessed' with wine and 'color', and his heart became more and more discouraged about the future of the Ouchi family. Yoshitaka Ouchi was unaware of this, and continued to be his elegant person. In the second year, Ah Cai gave birth to another son, and Ouchi Yoshitaka, who has always been difficult, added two sons in a row, and he was open-minded, accompanying his wife and young son all day long, and he didn't take the matter of competing for hegemony to heart. The husband and wife miss the east 'gate' celebration, so they named their youngest son Qingxiang Pill, which means that the reader pours it himself.
