Chapter 239: Windfall
Soon, the screams and begging for mercy subsided, and Maeno Nagayasu thought that although the news that the clan Buquan had returned to the Oda family was now spreading everywhere in Nishimino was spreading, then he knew that these were just a ploy by the Takayama clan, and where he was now, there was still a big wall across from Ogaki Castle, in case the clan Buquan came to his senses, saw through the plan of the Takayama clan, and cut off his way back, then he and the 400 troops under his command would be a little dangerous.
Even if he didn't cut off his way back to the army, he couldn't bear it just by leading his army to attack the land under his rule. Anyway, the original agreement between himself and the Gaoshan Clan Sect was to capture this city, and he didn't let himself hold on here, so it was better to return to the territory as soon as possible.
However, this time he is purely doing a favor to the Takayama clan, if he returns empty-handed like this, it will be a little too much, and now the development of the family has reached a bottleneck, if you want to get closer to the existing foundation, it will require a lot of money, as for where these expenses come from, it is simply on the head of Murai Shinhachiro.
Thinking of this, he only heard Maeno Nagayasu instruct one of the retainers present: "I will give you half an hour, and you will immediately lead a hundred ashigaru to gather all the money in the city, and after half an hour, the whole army will return to Sumamata Castle." ”
"It's the lord, and the subordinates will do it." With that, the warrior turned around and left happily.
To say that the efficiency of this samurai is still very high, not for a long time, I saw that this samurai returned to the hall, after he bowed, he took out a codex from his arms and presented it to the lord, Maeno Nagayasu opened the codex and looked at it, he couldn't help but gasp, seeing the content on it, he was completely shocked.
I think that Murai Shinhachiro's identity is just a general of Ashigaru, and the place under his rule is only more than 1,000 stones, but his banner is Ashigaru but from this city turned out more than 5,000 pieces of money and more than 2,000 pieces of gold judgment, if you add other silk, gold and silverware, etc., the total value has reached as much as 10,000 yuan, even most of the samurai with the status of a general are not as rich as him, no wonder the Saito family is getting worse, it turns out that these traitors and villains are making trouble from it, but in the end they cheapened themselves.
Maeno Nagayasu couldn't help but think that it was not so much that the money was given to him by Shinhachiro Murai, but that it was sent by the Takayama clan, after all, if Takayama-sama personally led the army to come, then there would be nothing to do with him at all.
Lord Takayama not only gave himself credit, but also gave himself ten thousand dollars, which... How can this repay Takayama-sama's kindness?
Thinking of this, Maeno Nagayasu felt a little embarrassed, in his opinion, Takayama-sama was almost perfect, as if he really had nothing to help him, however, if he didn't repay his kindness, it would be my samurai's doing, it seemed that he needed to find another chance to repay him in the future, anyway, Takayama-sama was very young, and he was not too old, so he should have a chance in the future.
Maeno Nagayasu looked down at the contents of the codex again, this money is equivalent to Takayama-sama giving it to him, even if he is the behind-the-scenes boss of the Sparrow House, and some of them are money, but if he doesn't say a word, he will take away all the finances of this ten thousand yuan, it will be a bit too much.
And like Takayama-sama's ninjas, there are not only a large number of them, but also a lot of abilities, which is not bad, if they know about it and report it to Takayama-sama, then what will he think of himself? I will have to rely on Takayama-sama's help a lot in the future, and if there is a rift because of this, then it will be difficult to get any help from him in the future.
Moreover, this Gaoshan clan is not only capable, but also deeply trusted by the lord, and the upward trend is obvious, even for the sake of the future of the family, he must tightly hug the big thick legs of the Gaoshan clan.
Besides, the amount of money controlled by Lord Takayama is hundreds of thousands, how can he look at such a small amount of money, even if he sends someone to report this matter to Lord Takayama, he probably won't want it.
Thinking of this, although Maeno Nagayasu was a little reluctant, he still said: "Yamashita Fujinosuke"
I saw a young warrior, who heard the lord suddenly shout his name, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "My subordinates are here, please give my lord's orders." ”
"You immediately lead ten ashigaru ......" Speaking of this, Maeno Nagayasu was a little troubled, where is this Takayama-sama? …,
Is he in the northern castle of Ando Mori, or is he in the Masane Castle of Inaba Ischitetsu? Now that he is in the enemy's territory, he must not trespass.
However, Maeno Nagayasu vaguely remembered that when Takayama-sama went to Sumamata Castle, he had said that as long as the rumors in Nishimino were together, it meant that two of the three Mino had been successfully returned to bed.
When Takayama-sama left, he went in the direction of Northern Castle, so if your guess is correct, Takayama-sama should be in Sone Castle now.
Thinking of this, I only heard Maeno Nagayasu continue: "I order you to go to Sone Castle immediately, inform Takayama-sama of the news of the seizure of the city, and explain to Takayama-sama that our army is alone, and in order to avoid being cut off by the clan's family, I have to destroy the city and withdraw the army, and tell Takayama-sama that in this battle, the family captured 10,000 pieces of property, and sent 5,000 of them to Takayama-sama as a reward, go." ”
After hearing this, Yamashita Fujinosuke was shocked in his heart, the lord is too generous, this is a fortune of five thousand yuan, even if he catches up with his own identity, he can't make so much money, besides, now that his family's territory has basically been fully developed, if he wants to increase his strength, then he can only rely on money to support it.
But this just obtained 10,000 guan, to the hand has not been covered with heat, in the blink of an eye to send out half of the lu, even if the lord is willing to go, Yamashita Fujinosuke is also reluctant, according to him, the Takayama clan just moved his mouth to get 5,000 guan, how can there be such a good thing, according to his thoughts, sending it 500 guan is too much.
Therefore, Yamashita Fujinosuke did not accept the order, but opened his mouth to persuade him: "My lord, my subordinates think that these five thousand kans are a bit too much?" The family now needs a lot of money to expand its strength, and if you give away ordinary money at once, it will not be good for the development of the family, so please make a decision. ”
If it weren't for the fact that the Yamashita Fujinosuke was also out of kindness, Maeno Nagayasu would not have to scold him in order to relieve the hatred in his heart.
The cost of 5,000 guan, although it is a lot, has even exceeded the income of his own territory for a year, and the loss of so much money at once may make the development of the family slower for the time being.
However, this is just a small profit in the moment, and if Takayama-sama can always think about himself, even if he gives himself some benefits casually, then the benefits obtained are not comparable to this mere 5,000 yuan of money.
Isn't this battle an example, if you don't have the support of Lord Takayama, don't say that you can still fall 5,000 yuan, otherwise you won't have a penny.
Thinking of this, I only heard Maeno Nagayasu say unhappily: "I have made up my mind about this matter, you don't need to persuade anymore, hurry up and go down and carry it out." ”
Seeing that the lord had made up his mind, although it was still a little difficult to accept it in his heart, in the end, he couldn't help but didn't persuade again, but quickly went out of the .......
