"So, Yoshino-sama came this time to send money to the family?" Soji Tsugawa put down the ledger and said jokingly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Haha!" Yoshino Yoshinari also replied with a smile, "That's right, 2,000 kan money has been ordered to be handed over to Saigo-sama in Minatojo." However, since I was in a hurry to get down, I'm afraid that the people sent by Saigo-sama are still on the way. ”

"Yoshino-sama has a heart, and he came to Ueno Castle to inform the family." Soji Tsugawa was very satisfied with Yoshino's attitude.

As the Tsugawa family became more and more powerful, Yoshino Ryoshino's status gradually became disproportionate to the Tsugawa family. It can also be said that Yoshino Yoshino's use value is not as important to the Tsugawa family as it used to be. Therefore, Soharu Tsugawa was very satisfied with Yoshino Yoshino's understanding of current affairs.

In fact, Yoshino Ryoshi wants to continue to keep the thick thighs of the Tsugawa family from the bottom of his heart. Especially after the Tsugawa family defeated the Ando family this time and basically unified the Yuhou, Yoshino Yoshino's mind became more and more active.

Now fools know that the Tsugawa family is no longer what it used to be, and if Yoshino Yoshino doesn't know what to do in the future, then all these years will be in vain.

Ever since he reached a PY deal with the Tsugawa family, Yoshino has been fascinated by the unique business policies implemented by the Tsugawa family. Buying grain and other raw materials at the Tsugawa family costs Yoshino only seven-tenths of the price of the past, and there are other benefits.

For example, the reduction of business taxes and the escort of Ashigaru along the way can be said to have made Yoshino Yoshino breathtaking. This also made Yoshino Ryoshi more and more determined to follow the Tsugawa family all the way to the black.

"In addition, this time it is rumored that this year is a bumper harvest year, and I will ask Lord Tsugawa for 20,000 stone of grain, and please ask Lord Tsukawa for approval!" Yoshino continued.

In the Tsugawa family, all matters involving strategic materials need to be decided by Tsugawa Soji himself, not to mention the top priority of food.

After hearing this, Soji Tsugawa nodded hurriedly and said, "This is easy to do, Lord Yoshino will return to Minato Castle to find Saigo Kizo immediately, and I will send someone to inform Saigo Kizo of this." ”

"So, thank you Tsukawa-sama!" Yoshino said gratefully.

This year's autumn harvest saw a total of 114,000 koku of grain in the Tsugawa family, and the lords handed over 65,000 koku of grain and 7,000 koku of money (similar to a poll tax). Therefore, the Tsugawa family harvested a total of more than 70,000 koku of grain this year, and with the previous grain stockpile, it was not trivial to sell 20,000 koku to Yoshino Ryosei.

What the Tsugawa family lacks most at present is money, and only with money can it develop rapidly, not to mention that Minato Castle is now forming the Tsukawa family's own trading fleet under the responsibility of Saigo Kizo, and it is the time to use money, of course Tsugawa Soji will not refuse Yoshino's proposal.

"It's here, then I'll retire first." Yoshino Yoshino saw that his goal had been achieved, and hurriedly bid farewell to Tsugawa Soji. Soharu Tsugawa did not keep either.

After Yoshino left, Soharu Tsugawa continued, "Jubei, go and invite Father Obani in." ”

"Hah!"

After a short time, the wise ten guards entered the castle tower with Albani.

After this period of study, Obani has been initially familiar with some of the culture and customs of RB, although in the eyes of the retainers of the Tsugawa family, Obani is useless, but Tsugawa Soji knows that this Obani is a treasure.

The Tsugawa family is located in the country of Dewa, which can be described as a poor and remote country with a bleak future. Therefore, Tsugawa Soji asked Sasaki Mataro to find the Nanbanians and try to connect with the outside world through the Nanbanarians.

The musket was only the first step, and the next step was to establish trade ties with Portuguese and Spanish merchants, as well as the "maritime merchants" of the Ming Dynasty, and develop the maritime trade of the Tsugawa family. Buy some foreign rare prices and sell them at a high price in RB.

And Albani is the most crucial figure in it. Soharu Tsugawa didn't know much about outside affairs, and he had little contact with the Portuguese and others, and the last time Shadilo sold 100 muskets to the Tsugawa family, it was actually because of the "sincere" faith in Christianity of Father Obani and Soji Tsugawa.

It can be said that as long as Tsugawa Soji firmly controls Obani in the territory of the Tsugawa family, then the Tsugawa family can gradually eliminate the southern barbarians through Obani and achieve some indescribable goals of Tsugawa Soji.

"Good day, Lord Baron!" As soon as Albani entered, he greeted Soji Tsugawa. Although he has recently learned some information about the ruling class in the chaos of RB, Obani still habitually calls Soharu Tsugawa a baron.

Soji Tsugawa didn't care, anyway, as long as Obani was happy, "Good morning, Father Obani." ”

"How is it feeling in my territory during this time?" Soji Tsugawa continued.

O'Bani frowned and said helplessly, "To be honest, I don't feel good. The people here are too poor and too ignorant. Although I have not deeply understood the territory of Lord Baron, I can also see from some of my usual understandings that these people of Lord Baron are not doing well. ”

"Especially the spiritual level, it is even more lacking. But now that I'm here, I'm sure I'll bring the light of the Lord to this land in need of salvation. Albani did not leave the mission.

Although Soji Tsugawa scorned his beliefs, he still pandered to Albani on the surface, "Father, I have always believed that only the Lord can save this world. Let people live a stable life. ”

"Oh! It's great that the Baron can say that. Albani said excitedly, "By the way, Lord Baron doesn't seem to have joined the religion yet, right?" If the adults don't mind, how about Aubani guide the adults? ”

"I'm sorry my priest." Soji Tsugawa said apologetically, "In our place, as a lord, you can't have any other faith, otherwise, you will be attacked by the lords nearby." ”

"It's a shame." Albani said lonely. Obani naively thought that what Soji Tsugawa said was true, but the pure Obani was still led by Soji Tsugawa, the old driver.

"But........." Soji Tsugawa said with a smile in his heart, "as long as my territory becomes stronger, I can no longer care about the lords around me." When the time comes, I will have the whole territory come to the Lord! ”

"But how can the lord's territory become stronger?" Albani asked, looking up.

Soji Tsugawa looked at Albani with a look of hope, and said excitedly, "Father, this needs your help."

"But I'm just a priest, I'm afraid I won't be able to help adults." Albani continued, "Moreover, my duty is to preach, not to participate in war. My belief is to help the people of this land to relieve their suffering, not to help the lord to win a war. With that, Albani closed his eyes and silently crossed it.
