Over the next few days, I was treated like a giant panda on Himejima. Food, clothing, housing, transportation, food and clothing, all things are worried about, and whoever sees me is respectful and submissive. I can't help but sigh again and again, this is the terrible power of faith!

But to be honest, this kind of 360-degree, all-round, and no dead end care even makes me feel that I am not a disabled person! Otherwise, is it necessary to have someone follow you to the toilet?

I always feel like I've seen this situation somewhere. After thinking about it, yes, many modern stars are like this! It's just that they hire paparazzi to expose themselves, while I expose passively, and that's just the difference.

After two more days, I couldn't stand this high treatment, so I hurriedly said goodbye to the islanders—"It's time to go overseas and spread the will of God!" "—Before leaving, I said this to the islanders, and when I was leaving, the dock fell to its knees......

Finally left! Standing at the stern of the boat, looking at the island that I will never forget, I let out a long breath.

The kite smiled next to me, "Why are you leaving?" Sir, you are a great match on the island right now! Approve a strange-looking robe, and in a few days you will be the new god of the island! When the time comes, if you look at any girl, hook your fingers, and the girl will be sent to the door! How wonderful! ”

I didn't say a word, I first gave her a chestnut on her head, and the kite who hit Xue Xue hugged her head and screamed in pain! Who knew that Lan said again: "You dare to send it to the door?" It also depends on whether I, the 'woman of God's chosen son', agrees or not! ”

As he spoke, his hands were crossed on his waist, and his willow eyebrows were upside down, and he completely looked like a spicy Hedong lion! When I was stunned, Arashi couldn't pretend to be able to hold it down, and hugged and laughed with the kite.

I smacked my lips, completely in a fugue state, what about the gentleness of traditional Dongying women? Why do I come across the best?

Shaking my head and leaving the deck, the two people behind me thought I was scared and ran away. Hmph, in fact, I just don't know as much as you! Can you be afraid of the things of the readers? That's called cowardice! Afraid! Got it?

Another day passed, and Sakai Port arrived. I've been to Osaka many times in modern times, but every time I come here in my life, I seem to be able to see a faint shadow of my past life.

For example, when I boarded the pier and the sea breeze blew the goldfish flags and the return flags danced up and down, I suddenly had the illusion that this feeling was very familiar, as if I had experienced the same thing before. Even the people next to them, what they said, and even their expressions were the same.

I shook my head, am I not mentally deranged?

I haven't left the port yet, and I've been operating here, as well as Qinglian, Yuhe, and others who had been sent to take refuge in advance for safety reasons, are already waiting for me. Parting and reuniting, there is a joy of its own.

The Blade Sea Chamber of Commerce already had a foothold in Sakai Port, thanks mainly to the tributary trade with the Ming Dynasty in the previous two years. The market of the Ming Dynasty was too vast, and the goods that could not be sold for ten years could be collected in Dongying, and when they arrived at the port of the Ming Dynasty, they were scattered almost immediately.

Population, the most important strategic resource, is really the foundation of all operations. Of course, after two years of development, Jian Hai can walk on two legs.

On the one hand, relying on the vest chamber of commerce of the Ming Dynasty to continue to make money - of course, it is impossible to make as much fanfare as before, and it may shrink a little to a certain extent.

On the other hand, it is supplemented by the gradual expansion of ocean-going trade. This ocean-going trade may not be boiled for a year, but it can be eaten for a year when it is boiled, and the prospects are infinitely broad. With the expansion of the fleet, it has gradually been able to equalize or even replace the tributary trade of the Ming Dynasty.

And in the case of Toei alone, in addition to Sakai Port, Blade Sea has already opened up trade in the ports of Hakata and Edo. At first, many people did not understand my plan to open a branch office in Edo.

I can't say that after Edo it will be the new Kyoto! So I'll list three reasons:

First, the Hojo clan, the ruling power in Edo, was stable, focused on civil affairs, and greatly promoted agriculture and commerce, so that Edo could have the best business environment in the world. If you can't develop with peace of mind there, then you can't do anywhere in Dongying.

Second, safety is guaranteed, and there is a small pastoral city in front of him, which is "the strongest city in the world", and the war cannot be burned. Behind is the sea, and the retreat is guaranteed. It is estimated that this is also the reason why Tokugawa Ieyasu set the capital here. With the character of that old turtle, the first thing to do is to be stable!

Third, the area south of Edo, which is actually the modern Yokohama area, has a low degree of development, and there is a lot of room for appreciation if you intervene now. Our investment will yield immeasurable benefits in the future!

All in all, there is absolutely nothing wrong with choosing Edo at this stage of trade. And I finally persuaded all the staff members to start tilting their manpower and material resources towards that side.

Actually, I didn't say anything about it: when we established our forces in Edo and Sakai ports, we began to strengthen our naval forces. When the time comes, you can form a flanking attack posture against the old enemy Kumano Naval Army, which is definitely one of the best means to suppress the enemy in the future!

Therefore, when Suzu was running the Toei base, he had already focused on the construction of the Edo branch according to my request. It is said that after this year, there has been a certain improvement over there. It can handle more than 25 warehouses per day, and it should be said that it has considerable strength.

After leaving the Ming Dynasty, I have been apprehensive, after all, it takes a lot of courage and perseverance to completely give up my previous efforts and start from scratch again. Although I think about leaving every day, I am inevitably a little weak when I really leave.

But when I saw what I had done in Dongying, and what they had reported to me and the situation of the Nanyang trade, when I really saw it with my own eyes, I suddenly felt that another world was opening up to me. There is really a lot to be done here, and there is really a sky for the future!

These three days have been spent in this kind of back and forth patrol. On the morning of the fourth day, Masataka Kuki, who is a housekeeper, told me that Sakuma Morimasa came to me! Of course, he and the original housekeeper Qiao Hansheng and a few others are learning the Dongying language hard. I still have that request, I don't need to be able to read and write poetry, just be able to listen, speak, read and write. However, with Qiao Hansheng's personality, I am afraid that he must be proficient.

Sakuma Morimasa was even more energetic, and he returned to the base camp soundly, and he was very happy to get the promise that I could provide the required number of iron cannons. When he saw me at the entrance, he laughed and walked up to me and hugged me!

Although this guy is two inches lower than me, he is definitely much stronger than me, and his muscle strength is definitely only stronger than me.

To receive such a rough person, you don't have to be in a Sven place like the tea room, I invited him to the backyard side hall, or it would be more appropriate to serve him with wine and meat!

After three rounds of drinking, Sakuma Morimasa explained his intentions: he told his uncle Shibata Katsuie about my situation, Shibata Katsuie, as a military chief, always pays more attention to military figures. When he heard my name, he vaguely felt very familiar, and when he thought about it carefully, who was not the military star who had recently risen in the north of the Ming Dynasty?

In particular, the news of my recent break with the Tubarian Department and the Jurchens has spread all over the high-level of the major forces in Dongying, and some forces near the sea have even done special research on me, dug out my situation, and found that I was almost a blank slate before my rise. But this does not affect their affirmation that I will be the first enemy that other forces will encounter when they attack the Ming Dynasty in the future.

But recently, I heard that because of the power struggle within the Ming Dynasty, it seems that a group of people left the imperial court and fled overseas. Shibata Katsuya didn't expect that I was among them! In Sakuma's words, "Uncle Teng stood up from the tatami mat and asked in a loud voice, is this true?" Is Sun Dian really in Dongying? ”

When I heard this, I smiled slightly, whether it was true or not, at least on face, Shibata Katsuya still showed a certain amount of respect. So when Sakuma Katsumasa proposed that Katsuya wanted to meet me and talk to me face to face, I didn't refuse. That's what I'm here for.

Now the Oda family is divided into two, the Hashiba clan is strong, and the Shibata clan is weak. Only by helping the Shibata clan can I reach a balance with the Hashiba clan. And in this process, I have to find a way to try to pull more forces into the water and make this pot of porridge boil even more!

But before that, I must wait for Chen Kui's fleet to arrive. That fleet is the prerequisite for me to carry out all the next strategies, and it is also the fundamental motivation for me to attack and retreat.

Sakuma Morimasa was not in a hurry, but waited for me to gather the iron cannon for him. In fact, the goods are already enough, and we are waiting for other things.

Finally, on this day, I received news that Chen Kui's fleet had been sent to Naha at the port, and while investing, I was on guard. I had the bottom in my heart, and I agreed with Sakuma Morimasa to leave tomorrow to meet Shibata Katsuya in Nagahama Castle.

Nagahama Castle was originally a possession of Hideyoshi Hashiba, but at the Cheongju meeting, Hideyoshi Hashiba gave it to Katsuya Shibata at the price of other lands bordering his allies.

Shibata Katsuya chose to meet here, and my understanding was that he was going to try his best to put on a polite corporal posture. After all, everyone is alive here, and there will be no embarrassment and discomfort that makes me go to his hometown and inevitably feel like I go deep into the tiger's den.

This fully shows that Shibata Katsuya is sincere in cooperation, and I am more confident in the implementation of the next plan!

That night, I called everyone together and arranged my idea. Everyone was silent after hearing this, only Lakshin and the Nine Ghosts were very happy.

What Laksin means is that this kind of big bustle is his favorite, so he will actively help me and fight every battle after this!

The nine ghosts are happy because I have strategically encircled the Kumano water army, and he is one step closer to revenge!

In short, after arriving at Dongying, the start was very good. I believe that as long as this plan is implemented, I believe that at least the expected effect can be achieved!
