In addition, there is a more important reason for Nobunaga to change his mind, that is, now that the family has become the most powerful in the world, it is obvious that the scale of this Gifu Castle is no longer enough to show his status, so it is better to build a new giant city and build the castle town of this castle into an Omachi town that can defeat the enemy of Kai Town and Takayama Town.

When the clan heard that Nobunaga only summoned himself to go, on the way to Gifu City, he secretly scolded Nobunaga countless times in his heart, Lao Tzu has fought for the Oda family for eight years, and other retainers can rest in peace, for their own self, when others are resting, they have to work hard for it, Lao Tzu's life is not worth much, is it difficult for the Oda family to have no one else except Lao Tzu?

But when he thinks about it, with Nobunaga's close attendants, how can he scold. And Ho Naomasa saw that Takayama-sama's face had been ugly since he set off, so he just hurried silently, so as not to touch Takayama-sama's brow.

"The subordinate Gaoshan clan sect is the lord."

"Alright, sit down." I saw Nobunaga wave his hand and said very casually.

When the clan sat down, he only heard Nobunaga ask casually, "Senbei, I heard that you have really benefited a lot from Takayama Town in the past two years, but is there such a thing?" ”

The clan couldn't help but tremble after hearing this, Oda Nobunaga called himself here this time, it shouldn't be because he wanted to fight Takayama Town's idea, Takayama Town's income has now accounted for nearly 30% of the family's total income, and not only that, the development momentum of this town is rapid, Clan Zong believes. In less than five years, the income of this town will account for more than half of the total income of the family, and if Nobunaga really wants to bring this town under his jurisdiction, then the Takayama family will be completely finished.

Now that the family title system has been introduced, it would not be possible to continue without the income of Takayama Town. So no matter what Nobunaga says, it's unacceptable.

But since Nobunaga asked about it, it proved that he already knew something about Takayama Town, so he didn't need to deceive too much about it. I only heard the clan sect open his mouth and replied: "Return to the lord." For now, the subordinates can receive 100,000 yuan a year from Takayama Town, but even if they add other income. It's just enough to avoid force. ”

It's okay that the clan didn't say the latter sentence, but when he finished speaking, Nobunaga couldn't help but yell, "What did you say? It's enough to avoid being strong! Do you think it's funny that I, Oda Nobunaga, have 80,000 soldiers and hundreds of retainers, and spend only a million a year, while you, a small daimyo with only a few tens of thousands of koku, raise only a few thousand soldiers, and earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, and tell me that it will be enough, do you think it's funny. ”

How can your subordinates still laugh out, you don't know what to do, in order to improve the combat strength of the army under your command and let the lord have no worries in the east, so the Fenglu given to Ashigaru is probably the highest in the world. Although there are only 7,000, it costs 140,000 yuan a year to build roads and open up wasteland. If you add the usual expenses, there is not much balance at all in a year, lord, subordinates

It's really not easy for the Izi, and his subordinates know that the lord of the Dao is currently engaged in a lot of construction, and he is not rich in his hands, otherwise he ......"

Before the clan finished speaking, Nobunaga couldn't bear it anymore, and directly interrupted: "Shut up for me, I see that you are becoming more and more like a small businessman who cares about everything, how much do you still remember the god of bushido!" If it weren't for the many great deeds you have made for my family, I would have banished you a long time ago. ”

When the clan heard this, he didn't dare to mess around, although he was not afraid that Nobunaga would really exile him, but even if he only took back the right to send the army independently, it was not acceptable for the clan.

It's 1570 now, and if you can't have the strength to dominate the world within ten years, then just with Hida, no matter how rich you are, you have no place to recruit troops and what to use to dominate the world.

So when Nobunaga finished speaking, he decisively closed his mouth, but that didn't mean he would compromise. Nobunaga saw that the clan was no longer talking, and that he had already vented his anger a lot just now, so he calmed down.

"Okay, the purpose of my recruitment of you this time is very simple, now this Gifu Castle is no longer enough to show the strength of my family, so I decided to build a new giant city, and build a town outside this city, my request is very simple, the income of this town must exceed Takayama Town, say what do you think."

Hearing this, the clan finally breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that this Nobunaga was not trying to take away his own property, and planned to follow suit, if this is the case, then there is no problem, anyway, even if he doesn't say it, I'm afraid that some people will suggest that he build a castle in Azuchi, rather than this, it is better to say it himself, as for whether Nobunaga's new town will rob the Takayama Town market, this clan is not worried.

There is a lot of money in the world, and it is impossible to make money just by relying on a few towns such as Takayama and Kai, and only when more towns are developed will it lead to the overall development of the economy, which is not only not a bad thing, but a great thing for Takayama Town.

Thinking of this, I only heard the clan said: "My lord, the reason why Takayama Town can still have this scale surrounded by mountains is because his subordinates have canceled the trading houses such as Zaza and encouraged Zi

You trade, and for the tax is only collected from its profits, so that the merchant can not make a steady profit, the most important thing for the merchant is profit, where he can make money, he will take root, so if the lord wants to build a new town with an income of more than Takayama Town, then this tax must be reformed, and the seat must be abolished. In addition, when choosing a convenient place for transportation, then the subordinates think that the income from them will only be more than that of Takayama Town, which is the foolish opinion of the subordinates, and please ask the lord to decide. ”

Nobunaga couldn't help but nod after hearing this, what the clan said coincided with his thoughts, but now a new question has come out, although the territory of the family is large, where should you build a castle? Nobunaga didn't think about Owari and Mino, he was tired of these two countries for a long time, but outside of these two countries, Nobunaga really couldn't find a coastal place where he could build a new city, so he had to ask: "Where do you think this new city should be built?" ”

After hearing this, the clan said directly without thinking: "Hui Zhugong, my subordinates think that the country of Minami Omi is not only flat, convenient transportation, and close to Lake Biwa, the scenery is pleasant, and there are hundreds of thousands of rocks here

I can relax my mind, this place can be called a treasure of feng shui, so my subordinates think that it is best to build a city here, and please decide. ”

Your support is my biggest motivation. )
