There is a way that people are under the eaves and have to bow their heads. This roof does not refer to specific things, but to "potential"! Sometimes it is bound to be strong, and no matter how high the heart is, it is useless.

Tanegashima Shiyao looked at me with disdain, and his heart was full of anger! But he had no choice, the season had already begun in autumn, and it was about to enter winter, and it would be even more difficult to buy food at that time. But today's posture does not seem to be much better than the foreseeable form. However, he was afraid that there would be no such shop in this village, and he had no idea for a while.

As a lord, Tanegashima Shiyao really couldn't wipe his face to pull me back, and he also had his own dignity, so he coughed lightly. Wu Youweimen immediately understood what he meant, and quickly came over and grabbed me! One of them said good things.

Actually, I don't have to make a fuss, but I want to take this opportunity to get more chips. So he also snorted coldly and asked with a sneer, "What?" Have you thought about it? ”

Wu Youemon looked at Tanegashima Shiyao with some embarrassment, the old guy coughed heavily, and said vaguely: "Sit down first!" ”

I smiled slightly, didn't say anything, and returned to my seat again at the invitation of Wu Youweimen. Then, without waiting for the atmosphere to fall into embarrassment again, Wu Youemon spoke: "Mr. Suzuki, the price you just said must be a joke!" I think it's better for us to talk about business seriously! ”

I knew that they didn't want me to go, and that the knife would actually kill them anyway, so I said, "What do you think is the right price?" ”

Wu Youemon choked on this sentence. Yes, at this time, how much is the right price? I raised it low, but I was afraid that I would think they were insincere and walked away again; Raised high, but unless he is stupid. So how do you pick up this conversation?

Tanegashima Shiyao had already relieved himself at this time, and then said: "It's better to come at the price that Mr. Suzuki said yesterday at the beginning, well!" ”

What he meant was to add half percent on top of the parity. This is an acceptable price in normal times, but at this time, how is it possible? What am I here for?

So I smiled and said, "Why don't you do it!" I don't say how high or low the price is, Tanegashima Temple, you go to someone else to negotiate the price, as long as you can negotiate the starting price you just said, as long as I still have inventory, I will sell it to you at this price! What do you think? ”

This sentence is reasonable, but Tanegashima Shiyao knows that when he comes back from a round of talking, I don't know where he went, who knows what moths will emerge at that time? So if you think about it, this is just a prevaricating word!

So Tanegashima Shiyao's wrist shook again, and the general shook it away with a sound of "Shi", slapped it twice, and said with a lewd smile: "The business that can be negotiated today, why delay it later?" Mr. Suzuki pushes back and forth, I'm afraid that if it's not a channel to buy food, what's unpleasant? ”

Speaking of which, the agitation method has been used. I smiled slightly, picked up the tea bowl and drank it all, and didn't answer his words, but said lightly: "There is a big drought on Kyushu Island, I don't know what the situation is at Otomo's family." I still have to go to Kitakyushu! ”

After speaking, he arched his hand to Tanegashima Shiyao and said simply: "Farewell!" I don't send it! After speaking, he didn't wait for Tanegashima Shiyao to answer, got up and left!

The stunned two were left dumbfounded! This Otomo family is the sworn enemy of the Shimazu family, in other words, the sworn enemy of his Tanegashima family! If I give up on them and turn to the enemy, it will be a big joke in the world!

Tanegashima Shiyao has lived for half a lifetime, and it can be regarded as a long-standing shopping mall. But a seller like me, who just walks and doesn't leave a single step, is really the only one in his life. At this time, he woke up to the fact that it was a seller's market without any pretense, and my attitude fully explained that I didn't care if I could negotiate his business.

I thought I would stop after taking a few steps, but I didn't expect that I would go out of the City Lord's Mansion with a straight poke. I went straight to the dormitory.

Tanegashima Shiyao was suddenly embarrassed, as the lord of the city, although there have been times when things didn't go well in one way or another, but it was definitely the first time in his life that Hongguoguo was slapped in the face like this. If it weren't for the bulk of food that might or might appear, he would have been, certain, and certain that he would never swallow his anger and endure such a wretched gas!

But it's still the same sentence - stronger than people! In the past two days, several grain stores that they sent out to negotiate have replied - this year's grain is very tight, if it is a door-to-door transaction, then the current scheduled price can talk about the lowest parity plus 10%. Coupled with the freight, including the miscellaneous items such as risk and loss, it is basically the asking price of the Suzuki Chamber of Commerce.

So from this point of view, although the attitude of the boss of the Suzuki family is arrogant, the asking price is really not high! And this is still the current price, if it is delayed further, as the grain storage gradually decreases, I am afraid that the price will rise!

So, Tanegashima Shiyao didn't care about losing face, so he sent Wu Youweimen early the next morning to come to us, wanting to invite us to the city lord's mansion again. I didn't see him, so I asked the Nine Ghosts to reply to him with two words: "No time!" ”

Wu Youemon was depressed, he already knew from the matter of Tanegashima Yaogui that I would never be intimidated by anything like this. The tougher they are, the more I bounce back!

Therefore, Wu Youemon had no choice but to go back to the City Lord's Mansion and report to Tanegashima Shiyao!

And for the rest of the day, I did nothing else but wander around some of the largest iron cannon workshops on the island. In the end, from a workshop called "Saga Sharp Weapon", I bought 20 new instantaneous iron cannons at a price slightly higher than the market price!

Holding it in his hand, he tried again and again for a long time, and then he did not hesitate to eliminate the one he usually used as a training gun. I want to buy more, but how many pieces can a workshop make by hand in a year! If you want to buy it again, you have to book next year's amount. I thought about it, and ordered from him thirty muskets, ten truncated muskets, which really cost a lot of silver.

On the morning of the third day, we were packing up in the dormitory, and Wu Youweimen came again, still holding a long box in his hand. I was curious, I didn't know what it was, Wu Youweimen opened the box in front of me, and when I looked at it, it was an alternative iron cannon with a barrel that grew nearly a foot from other iron cannons.

There was also an old man who came with Wu Youemon, who I hadn't seen before, and Wu Youemon introduced me to this old man who was the chief forging master of the Tanegashima family, Yaban Kiyosada.

It turned out that yesterday they inquired about our whereabouts, and saw that I was indeed interested in muskets, so they invited the man on this island, who could even be said to be the best at the whole of Dongying, to come, and brought his proud work, just to surprise me, so that we could continue to talk about business.

I let out a long sigh, it turns out that this is the guy who traded his daughter for technology! So I squinted my eyes and looked him up and down, and I really couldn't see any difference between him and other bad old men, except for the smoke and fireworks.

I picked up the gun and looked it up and down for a while, and the chamber was indeed much longer, so that the effective distance of the shot and the initial velocity of the bullet must be far superior to that of a normal gun, but the recoil must also be stronger! I thought to myself, if I had an eight-fold mirror, this gun could be used as a sniper rifle!

So I asked the eight board Qingding: "How far can this gun hit?" ”

Yaban Qingding raised his eyebrows and replied proudly: "The range can reach eight hundred steps!" This is already an excellent figure of three or four hundred paces away from other guns, and his arrogance is also confident.

But I laughed "sneering", handed the gun back to him, and said, "Eight hundred steps!" If you give you an elephant, you won't be able to beat it! What's the use of a long range? Have all one's goods in the window! It's flashy! ”

This sentence made the eight boards so angry that the three corpse gods jumped violently, and there was smoke in the seven orifices! In the past few decades, he has been obsessed with the research and improvement of iron cannons, and I have to say that this iron cannon is already one of the best products he has gathered, and it is so worthless as I say!

When I wanted to argue, I didn't give him a chance, I went straight to Wu Youweimen and said: "I thought the love was deep, but the fate was shallow!" Wu Youwei Palace, in a few days, we are going to leave! If you have a fate in the future...... Well, I'll come to fetch the cannon, I think I'll see you again! That's it! ”

As soon as he heard that I was leaving, Wu Youweimen suddenly became anxious, came over and pulled my sleeve and said, "Why bother leaving?" Mr. Suzuki! It's also good to have a few more plates, and there are still many special delicacies on the island that you haven't taken to taste, what a pity! Stay a few more days! I will bear all the costs of your room and board, how about it? ”

Judging from the sincerity he showed, the other party was indeed in a hurry! So I decided, take another handful! I smiled and excused myself, "Good intentions!" This time, I won't bother! We have some other business on Kyushu Island, and we are in a hurry to negotiate, so let's leave it at this today! ”

Wu Youweimen repeatedly dissuaded me, but I just didn't listen, and I pulled and pulled to the dock. Wu Youweimen is in a hurry, is there any other business on Kyushu Island? In addition to their main family, the Shimazu family, there is only one mortal enemy left! Are we really going to Otomo's house to talk about business? That's a must-have. So he tugged at my sleeve and didn't let me go, but asked someone to invite Tanegashima Shiyao as soon as possible and ask him to come to the dock as soon as possible.

So I just acted like I couldn't walk, and after a while, with a rapid sound of horses' hooves, Tanegashima Shiyao's figure appeared on the dock and hurried to me.

This time the business talk is really heartwarming! Tanegashima Shiyao said in his heart. The shelf on the opposite side is really stable enough, I walked twice, invited three times, but in the end I still had to go to the dock to find someone by myself, which ...... This is really a loss of prestige and morale!

But who is to blame? I think at the beginning, didn't I just take out a look of indispensability, wanted to take the initiative, and ended up angering people? I also blame my son who is not a weapon, and ignites the fire first! Alas, let's go! Cease! Cease! For the sake of the overall situation, even if you sacrifice my old face, what can't you do?

So, Tanegashima Shiyao greeted me with a smile, grabbed my sleeve and said, "Mr. Suzuki, Mr. Suzuki!" Don't be in a hurry! Just arrived at the docks, that one! That's it! He stretched out his hand and pointed to Hu Asheng's hotel and continued to smile: "That is the first fish on this island!" I'm doing the East! Let's go sit down! ”

I smiled and said, "It's okay to sit, but you don't want Yusheng!" Enough with pickles! ”

Tanegashima Shiyao was stunned for a moment, then understood, and laughed: "Mr. Suzuki wants to save me money, so why don't I do it!" Walk! Let's drink and talk again! ”

So, a group of people who laughed and had different dreams in the same bed flocked to the only hotel on Tanegashim......

As soon as they entered the door, Hu Asheng and the others saw me and Tanegashima Shiyao coming in together, and their faces were full of weirdness! How did these two get together! But I secretly said in my heart: It seems that the story of the will continue!
