Chapter IX: Agreements

As the discussion gradually deepened, various modern terms hit Oda Nobunaga's nerves.

"Exactly, I think everybody has value." Hosokawa Senmaru broke out a new concept again.

"Value?" Oda Nobunaga frowned, savoring the word.

"Take these little surnames with you, and you can observe their strengths and weaknesses from daily life. or good at calculation, or good at the art of war, or literary and strategic, or clever and eloquent. As their lord, you should make good use of their talents and give full play to their strengths. Hosokawa began to talk to Oda Nobutaga about talent management in later generations.

From how to discover and select talents, to rationally organize, use and manage talents, to coordinate the internal and external relations of talents, we will give full play to the wisdom and talents of talents and make long-term contributions to the harmonious progress of the Hosokawa family.

Before I knew it, it was afternoon, and it was about to enter dusk. At noon, Oda Nobunaga also invited him to a picnic, and Hosokawa Senomaru was not far behind and cooked him two quail eggs. Outcome. [His sister also snatched a pair of quails from me, I only have two pairs in total] Hosokawa Senomaru was annoyed.

"In short, that's what it takes to find and manage talent." Seeing that it was not early, Hosokawa Smart Pill was ready to end and gave the order to evict the guests. I saw Oda Nobunaga's eyes glowing and he looked at Hosokawa Senmaru without saying a word, Hosokawa Senimaru only felt the back of his neck fluttering, and thought to himself [I heard that Oda Nobunaga has a habit of playing with his surname as a petty sex, I don't want to end up like Senranmaru.] ] Subconsciously protect the chrysanthemum.

"Ahem!" Hosokawa Senimaru coughed crisply, as if waking up Oda Nobunaga, only to see Oda Nobunaga slowly sit upright, and said in a serious tone, "Don't talk about it, let's solve the current problem first." ”

"Now? What's wrong? Hosokawa Senimaru was stunned by Oda Nobunaga's leapfrog thinking. I want talent right now! Oda Nobunaga stared at Hosokawa Senmaru and said word by word.

Hosokawa Senmaru didn't know if this sentence was meant for him or if it had an ulterior motive. But he knows that 'what you can't get is the rarest', and this sentence is more appropriate for Oda Nobunaga, who admires and tolerates talents the most, and the most typical example is Matsunaga Hide, who betrayed him countless times.

So Hosokawa Senomaru spoke: "Abolish all levels, abolish all toll taxes, and let merchants come and go freely." "Huh?" Oda Nobunaga was also stunned by Hosokawa Clever Maru's brainless words, but gradually lowered his head into contemplation.

In this Warring States period, in order to avoid spies from other countries, the lords set up checkpoints within the borders of the country. If people from other countries wanted to enter the country, they would have to pay an expensive toll tax, and it would be a bold initiative to abolish it, as Hosokawa said.

After a long time, Oda Nobunaga raised his head and said solemnly: "I understand, besides, do you have any requirements?" ”

[It's easy to talk to smart people, and it doesn't take much explanation.] Especially like Oda Nobunaga, who is not bound by old customs, only needs to take a few steps, and he can analyze the rest of the pros and cons by himself] Hosokawa Clever Pill had to admire Oda Nobunaga's long-term vision, after all, he was a leader in this era, thought for a while and said: "I hope you can lend me 5,000 yuan." ”

"5000? So much! "The current Oda Nobunaga has not yet unified Owari, only the territory of 190,000 kokutaka left to him by his father in the central and western regions of Owari. At that time, his father, Oda Nobuhide, was only one of the three commissioners of the Owari Shimoto clan and Oda Yamato, and after years of hard work, it expanded to its current territory. In the 12th year of Astronomy, Oda Nobuhide once offered 4,000 kan to the imperial court for the repair cost, and the dignitaries and nobles in Kyoto were grateful, knowing that 5,000 kan could build a flat castle.

"What do you want so much money for?" Oda Nobunaga asked, although he nominally held a territory of 190,000 kokugao. In fact, the Oda family is now worried about external troubles, such as Saito and Imagawa families, and the daimyo of one country or even the three kingdoms are eyeing each other, and there are people like Oda Nobumitsu, the uncle of Moriyama Castle, who is in a semi-independent state, and there are hostile elements like Oda Nobuyuki, the younger brother of Suemori Castle, who plotted rebellion, and even Yamaguchi Kyoji of Narumi Castle has just defected and defected to the Imagawa family. The only things he actually has under his jurisdiction now are Furuto Castle, Katsuhata Castle, Nakono Castle, Ogaki Castle, Atsuta, and Tsushima.

"Oh, nothing, I'm going to travel around the world, for a trip that I can just go." Hosokawa Smart Pill replied in a flat tone, in fact, he was very worried in his heart, this 5,000 yuan is related to the layout of future development.

"That's right......" Oda Nobunaga thought for a moment, waved his big hand and said, "Okay! I'll give you 5,000 yuan, and I don't want you to pay it back, and I'll be out of my family in ten years. This one is called, it's called. "Investing in talent." Hosokawa Senchimaru said it for him: [It's not bad, it's all now sold.] ]

"However, I used to be in charge, do you have such a big city to accommodate me?" Hosokawa Senchomaru looked at Oda Nobunaga playfully, since the uproar of the sports meeting, Miyoshi Nagakei decisively announced the abolition of Hosokawa Senchomaru's status as the leader, and was succeeded by the puppet Hosokawa Clantsuna.

"Hahaha, look at it, I'll be the daimyo who will rule a country in the future, maybe I can go to Luo." Oda Nobunaga is still looking at the present, but as time goes by, his horizons will gradually broaden.

After saying goodbye, Oda Nobunaga sent 1,250 gold judgments worth 5,000 yuan to Hosokawa Senimaru's house that night. Looking at the five boxes of golden Jin Xiaoju in front of him, the eyes of everyone in the Hosokawa family were about to come out.

"Hahaha, worthy of being an Owari fool." The little surname Tsurumomaru laughed heartily. "Shut up!" Hosokawa Senchomaru shouted angrily: "Yanque Anzhi Honghu Zhizhi, Lord Shang Zongsuke is a hero in the world, do you think the person who can talk to me for a long time is a big fool?" Or do you think I'm a fool too? ”

Shocked, Tsurumomatsumaru hurriedly lay on the ground, his mouth didn't dare again and again, and cold sweat soaked through his clothes. The atmosphere at the scene suddenly seemed very depressing.

"Yi'an!" Hosokawa Senchomaru suddenly called Yoshida Munekatsu, and Yi'an was his common name.

"The subordinates are here!" Yoshida Sokatsu was excited, thinking that he wouldn't pour all his anger on him.

"My family was able to escape from the Miyoshi family this time, all thanks to the help of Dr. Yoshida, and you have made a great contribution. Special impressions, 300 years old, promoted to the family after the service. ”

"After... Aftermath? Thank you for your kindness, and the ministers will die for their families! Yoshida Munegui gratefully stepped forward to receive the certificate of appreciation, from a Kyoto physician to a dignified samurai lord in the blink of an eye, and still in a high position of service, what an honor.

Hosokawa Senchimaru nodded and continued: "Well, in the future, I will ask Yi'an to continue to teach the etiquette and knowledge of my family and the small surnames." Saemon! ”

"The villain is here!" Saemon immediately fell to the ground, nervous and excited.

"You found Hattori Iwami-sama in time to make the family escape smoothly, and you were also loyal and commendable along the way, which should be a second work. He was given a special impression, restored his status as a samurai, and was promoted to the head of the horse and the pen of the horse. ”

"Little man, oh no. The subordinates are determined to die for their own family! Saemon took the feeling with trembling hands, from now on, it will be Nakajima Akinobu who is a samurai.

"Hattori-samaru Iwami." Hosokawa Senomaru gently called Hattori Baocho.

"Yes." Hattori Baocho responded with a calm face.

"This family's disaster is thanks to the help of Mamoru Iwami. It's hard work.,The family will take these 1,000 as the reward of the Hattori family this time.,I hope that Lord Iwami Mamoru won't be too little.。 Hosokawa Senomaru motioned to Ushichiyo and transferred the 250 gold judgments to Hattori Baocho.

“1…… 1000 times! Hattori was stunned and looked at the golden box of gold in front of him.
