Chapter 385: The Pirates in Exchange for Kimchi

Yoshino Yoshino seemed to have made a major decision, and said to Tsugawa Soji with a firm face, "Tsugawa-sama, I can't hide it, there are indeed some places that can help adults." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Tsukawa Soji nodded, not surprised by Yoshino's answer, which was also the purpose of Tsugawa Soji to let Yoshino Yoshino come.

Yoshino Yoshino continued, "I have been trading at sea for a long time, and I also have a navy escort caravan under my command, with two ships and 80 people. In addition, the pirates in the Noto area, the Echigo area, the Echizen area, and the Yamashiro area are also very familiar with it. ”

"As long as Tsugawa-sama has this will, I am willing to serve my lord." Yoshino Ryoshi said slowly.

Soji Tsugawa was overjoyed when he heard this, and said excitedly, "Then I don't know how sure Yoshino-sama is?" ”

"Haha, I can't say it, as long as I have money, how can these mercenary pirates not want to serve Lord Tsugawa?" Yoshino smiled.

However, after Yoshino finished speaking, Tadanobu Motoyama on the side was a little unhappy, and hurriedly said, "Yoshino-sama, not all pirates only value money. ”

"Oh, yes! " Yoshino slapped his forehead and continued, "Of course, I'm referring to the pirates in general. A warrior like Lord Benshan naturally can't be compared to these people. ”

Soji Tsugawa thought for a moment, and then said, "Yoshino-sama, then you estimate how much it will cost the family to recruit these pirates?" ”

"In the past, if you wanted to hire a group of 500 pirates, you needed to prepare at least a reward of 500 to 800 koko. And if you want these pirates to take refuge in the Tsugawa family, I'm afraid that the 500-person pirates need at least 3,000 kan. And this is only the first expense, and the pirates in the later stage have to be calculated separately. Yoshino continued.

"3000 times!" Tsugawa Soji couldn't help but let out an exclamation, which was far beyond Tsukawa Soji's expectations. But in this way, Motoyama is loyal and willing to take refuge in the Tsugawa family, and he really picked up a big bargain.

Of course, this is also related to the position of the general promised by Tsugawa Soji and the position of the commander of the naval army.

"3,000 is just a conservative estimate, and if things don't go well, I'm afraid there will be more." Yoshino continued.

After listening to Yoshino's words, Tsugawa Soji was silent for a while, "The current development of various places in the family requires money, the repair of the castle, the purchase and construction of ashigaru equipment, horses, warships, and roads, and there are less than 10,000 pieces left. If you recruit another pirate group, you will have to shrink by nearly half. At present, the port of Minato City and the trade in the territory have just begun, and they really can't draw money. What's more, I keep this money and have a lot of use. Thinking of this, Soji Tsugawa lowered his head and thought silently.

After a long time, Tsugawa Soji swept Yoshino Yoshino and said, "Yoshino-sama, if it's 3,000 kan, I'm afraid my family won't be able to recruit these pirates at the moment." ”

As if guessing Tsugawa Soji's concerns, Yoshino Ryoshi smiled at Tsugawa Soji, and then said loudly, "Tsugawa-sama, if you don't give up, I'm willing to bear this part of the cost." ”

"What?" Soji Tsugawa and Tadanobu Motoyama on the side were shocked, 3,000 is not a small amount.

Soji Tsugawa stared straight at Yoshino Yoshino, trying to see something from Yoshino's expression. Yoshino Ryoshi wouldn't throw such a big cake at the Tsugawa family for no reason, so there must be something that needs the Tsugawa family's help. After all, there is no free lunch in this world, not to mention a businessman like Yoshino Yoshino, who can't afford to be early, Tsugawa Soji doesn't believe that Yoshino Yoshino said this because of his "eight kings".

Sure enough, Yoshino Ryoshi continued with a calm face, "Of course, before this, there is something to ask for. ”

"Oh? What's the matter? "Tsugawa Soji is not afraid that you have a request, if you really don't ask for it, then Tsugawa Soji will have to think carefully about Yoshino Yoshino's purpose for doing this.

Yoshino Yoshino said slowly, "That's it! The last time I went to live in the Kyoto area, I brought more than ten kimchi from the Tsugawa family. Originally, I was trying to see if I could sell it, but when I was in Echizen Province, I was bought by a merchant from Hakata Port in Kyushu, and I also bought 2,000 jars from Zaixia. ”

"In Dewa Japan, there are a lot of kimchi popping up now, but the kimchi produced by the Tsugawa family is undoubtedly the most delicious. So I want Tsugawa-sama to hand over the production and sale of kimchi to the next! Yoshino Ryoshi said with a look of hope, "Of course, in the future, half of the profits from kimchi will be given to the Tsugawa family." I don't know what Tsukawa-sama thinks. ”

After Yoshino finished speaking, he set his eyes on Tsugawa Soji and waited for Tsugawa Soji's reply. And Tsugawa Soji was also stunned after listening to Yoshino Yoshino's words, I thought Yoshino Yoshino was going to make a request, but I didn't expect it to be this.

"Kimchi is currently saturated in Dewa, and if you want to continue to expand your profits, you can only sell it to other regions. However, this country is located in a remote place, and it is relatively convenient and fast to go only by sea. But now the trade and navy of the family are not ready, and it will undoubtedly be very costly to do so. It's better to let Yoshino go, anyway, there will be half of the profit afterwards. Thinking of this, Tsugawa Soji couldn't help but show a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Yoshino Ryoshi is also a smart person, and he shares half of the profits of his family, so when his family is strong in the future, he will inevitably provide convenience to Yoshino Ryoshi in all aspects." Profiteer! Profiteer! ”

However, although Yoshino Yoshino's "purpose is not pure", Tsugawa Soji was still very satisfied, so he hurriedly said, "Okay!" In the future, the production and sale of kimchi will be handed over to Yoshino-sama. ”

"Thank you, Lord Tsugawa!" Yoshino Ryoshi saw that Tsugawa Soji agreed, and hurriedly said excitedly, "Don't worry, Lord Tsugawa, in less than February, I will definitely recruit a powerful group of pirates for Lord Tsugawa!" ”

"Good! So we'll see! Soji Tsugawa also nodded with satisfaction.

"Benshan is faithful, from now on, you will be the general of the family and the commander of the navy, and your annual salary is temporarily set at 500 stones." Tsugawa Soji turned back to Motoyama Tadanobu on the side and said, "Next, all the affairs of the water army of this family will be handed over to you!" Don't let your family down. ”

"Don't worry! Before the autumn harvest, if the lord can't see a complete navy army, please cut his own stomach! Motoyama replied with a firm face.

"It's not too early, you two should stay and eat!" Soji Tsugawa smiled and said, "Ten Soldiers, go and bring the prepared meal." ”

"Hah!"

At the thought that he was about to exchange kimchi for a water army, Tsugawa Soji was simply happy in his heart.
