Chapter 114 - Signing of Trade Agreements
For businessmen, this is indeed a big bet. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
But after the baptism of the double words of his granddaughter and Xiuguang just now, Zong Zhan was obviously moved. But he wanted to test it a little more.
"It's a great offer. And it's tempting. ”
Zong Zhan nodded after thinking about it for a while.
"However, this matter, for us, is also very risky. So, can the interests be weighed again? ”
This old fox pondered for a long time, and it turned out that he wanted to see if he could make more money! After hearing Zong Zhan's words, Xiuguang immediately understood the intentions of this old businessman who had been in the mall for a long time.
"There's a lot of room for you to give into, Kamiya-sama. Do you think that the conditions proposed by our side are not good enough? Don't be too greedy. ”
Of course, Xiuguang will not budge in this regard.
"Oh...... Is it. ”
Businessman Zong Zhan certainly would not give up this opportunity to make more money.
"Then I can't accept your proposal. On Hakata's side, in addition to the Oga family, our two wealthy merchants, Kamiya and Shimai, are the most influential. The current head of the Shimai family is my cousin, and if I choose not to accept it, he will not accept your proposal for various reasons. Are you going to go to the Oga family? ”
Zong Zhan smiled quite comfortably,
"Let's be honest, the Oga family is the eyes and ears of the Tokugawa family. Will they promise you? ”
"Haha, Kamiya-sama is really worried."
This old fox. Xiuguang cursed secretly in his heart, and then continued to say with an unchanging face with a dead and unyielding mentality:
"Why does it have to be you Hakata? Hakata is great, but we can also choose Nagasaki Hirado. ”
Xiuguang slanted Zong Zhan with his eyes,
"There are so many merchants, not bad for you. To be honest, if it weren't for the big people above us, maybe we wouldn't have come to Hakata at all, but to Hirado. More of you and less of you is just a loss of a trade route, nothing at all. ”
Of course, this sentence is a lie and nonsense, such as when did the water please go to Xiuguang. Moreover, no matter which trade route is now, it must be a treasure for the Toyotomi family, and it is impossible to give it up at will.
Using lies and coercion to induce the other party to let go and give in with the most reasonable use of it is Xiuguang's method.
"That's a pity."
In fact, in addition to official communication, Zong Zhan and Rushui also have a good personal relationship in private, and it is said that they are tea friends who often drink tea together.
He's a smart guy. Since Xiuguang's words just now clearly expressed the meaning of no concessions, and he also moved Rushui as a shield, then he didn't have much to say.
"I see. You win, little brother. Let's just make the deal as you just said. ”
So he gave up, waved his hand, and finally agreed to this secret agreement.
"It's worthy of Kamiya-sama, it's really refreshing."
Xiuguang smiled,
"Happy trading. Without further ado, let's prepare the text of the agreement as soon as possible. Kamiya-sama, do you have pen and ink? ”
Zong Zhan immediately asked his granddaughter Feng next to him to take the pen and ink and handed it to Xiuguang.
Xiuguang picked up the pen and immediately began to write.
I had already prepared a rough draft, so I finished it quickly.
"Kamiya-sama, please check it first."
"Uh-huh."
Zong Zhan took the agreement from Xiuguang's hand, and then put on the monocular glasses from the West and carefully read the contents several times before nodding, signing and paying for it with confidence.
The procedures that needed to be handled in Zong Zhan's hands were thus completed. Next, it's time to take this agreement and get Hideyori and Prince Hachijo to sign the monogram.
But before that, you have to tell Xiulai everything. Only when Hideyori understands and understands what Hidemitsu has done can he put it into action and really work.
It's time to find a time to confess to your brother. Xiuguang thought to himself.
In fact, Xiuguang had long planned to inform Xiulai of these practices. It's just that at that time, because I was worried that some insects within the Toyotomi family would know about this plan, I didn't inform Hideyori in time.
Now Hidemitsu's plan is to find a suitable time to tell Hideyori about the matter after the matter in Kyushu is over.
After all, after getting the approval of Xiulai, it will be more convenient and concise to act. And brotherhood is better than a plate of loose sand.
Maybe it's because of the scarcity of people that it's more united? Just like the late Taiko Hideyoshi treated his loved ones.
However, it is a pity that Hideyoshi and other relatives of the Toyotomi family have become the past when the sun is setting and can never come back.
Xiuguang sighed secretly in his heart. And then immediately back to the point.
"Tomorrow we're going to go to the Shimai family, and we're signing the same agreement as you. When the time comes, I hope that Lord Kamiya will take the trouble to introduce the current head of the Shimai family. Kamiya-sama has no opinion, right? ”
"No, no. No opinion at all. The clan was originally my cousin, and now in order to resist the Oga family, the two must join forces. So having the Shimai family join is exactly what my Kamiya family wants. In addition, the information that can be collected on material logistics will be more extensive. ”
"Haha, wouldn't that be the best? Both parties profit? ”
"Ahem, of course. Happy to work with. ”
In this way, if the negotiations with the Shimai family go well tomorrow, then Hakata's business during the trip to Kyushu will officially come to an end.
Of course, in the end, you can't forget about losing money.
"Well, I'm done with all the important things. Next...... Sure enough, it's time to talk about the money you lost in betting. ”
When Xiuguang said this, he didn't forget to glance at Xiuzong.
"Why don't you just mortgage you here? Hyogoro? ”
"No...... Please be merciful......"
Xiuguang was just joking, but Xiuzong was pale.
"Just kidding. Why are you so nervous? ”
patted Xiuzong on the shoulder, and Xiuguang asked Zong Zhan:
"Well, as for the debt, now we really don't have a way to pay it off right away. So can you write an IOU and pay it on credit first? ”
"That's fine."
Zong Zhan, who had just signed a big agreement, was in a good mood now, and he didn't care too much about that money.
……
……
That night, Hidemitsu and his party stayed at the inn that belonged to the Kamiya family.
"Scared the hell out of me...... I almost thought that Your Highness, you really wanted to mortgage my whole person there......"
Xiuzong felt a little scared about what happened just now.
"Are you still afraid?"
In this regard, Xiuguang teased.
