……

Hu Shouren left, after all, Qi Jiguang's order had been achieved, and he had made a lot of money. Hawkers, you must know that during the days when he accompanied Oda Yoshinobu to visit the Qinglou painting boat in Suzhou, Hangzhou and Qinhuai, Oda Yoshinobu didn't know how much money he was rewarded.

Alas, speaking of which, Oda Yoshinobu really doesn't know the hard work of making money at all, you must know that the Oda family made up a lot of gold and silver for Oda Yoshinobu at the beginning, which was a kind of shrinking clothes and dieting. And in the end, he also sacrificed such a big move as the Azuchi treasure banknote, plus traded with many forces such as Uesugi and Maori, and finally managed to scrape together 50,000 taels of gold and 500,000 taels of silver.

Among them, Lilu racked her brains and continued to make money through various means. But she didn't have the slightest dissatisfaction with Oda Yoshinobu's big hands, and it didn't seem to match her love of money. But think about it carefully, Oda Yoshinobu spent all this money not to befriend these people in the Ming Kingdom? At least Lilu was well aware of the usefulness and necessity of doing so.

Of course, the main reason is the treasure of Wu Ping obtained by Nanao Island, and the gold of more than 100,000 taels made everyone speechless. I don't know whether to say that Oda Yoshinobu is lucky, or that the Oda family is prosperous. But anyway, no one cares about Oda Yoshinobu's seemingly scary expenses. After all, not bad money!

But even so, after Oda Yoshinobu ended his meeting with Zhang Juzheng, he immediately summoned Shigeharu Takenaka and told Shigeharu Takenaka what he and Zhang Juzheng had discussed before.

"My lord, it doesn't matter if you are a vassal to Ming Guo or not, how can you ...... in this place" Shigeharu Takenaka asked with a look of disbelief as he looked at Oda Yoshinobu when he heard this. In his opinion, if you can obtain trade and even funding with the Ming Kingdom just by being a vassal to the Ming Kingdom, it is simply not too cost-effective. After all, that kind of verbal salutation has no practical meaning at all.

It's just that when he heard Shigeharu Takenaka's words, Oda Yoshinobu shook his head and said with a serious face, "Actually, I regretted it a little at the beginning, but now that I think about it, there is nothing wrong with it." I even thought I was crazy to contradict such an innocuous issue. ”

Hearing this, Shigeharu Takenaka did not respond, but quietly waited for Oda Yoshinobu's next words. After getting along all these years, Shigeharu Takenaka thinks that he already knows his lord very well. In his heart, although Oda Yoshinobu will do things that are difficult for ordinary people to understand from time to time, he is indeed a rare famous lord in the world.

Of course, if you really want to dominate the world, Oda Yoshinobu's character still has many flaws, just like this inexplicable behavior now, if it were Oda Nobunaga, it would never happen.

Seeing that Shigeharu Takenaka was silent, Oda Yoshishi was quite relieved in confidence, and then stood up and looked at Shigeharu Takenaka and smiled, "Shigeji, do you think such a thing as treachery is good?" ”

Hearing this, Shigeharu Takenaka immediately wanted to say directly, "It depends on what kind of benefits it can bring." It's just that when the words came to his lips, he suddenly couldn't say anything when he saw Oda Yoshinobu's serious expression.

Seeing this, Oda Yoshinobu said lightly, "This family is in a troubled world, the covenant is just a piece of waste paper, and the agreement is just casual, don't you think it's sad that a loyal samurai is worthy of everyone's praise?" ”

"Yes...... But if this is not the case, it is impossible for many powerful forces to come out at all. Shigeharu Takenaka looked at Oda Yoshinobu strangely and said with some hesitation. Obviously, he hadn't figured out what Oda Yoshinobu was talking about for it.

"Yes, it's as if Maori, Takeda, Hojo, and even your old master, the Saito family, eventually grew up by these means. I wouldn't say that this method is wrong, because without these means, they would not have risen at all, but the question is, do they still need these means today? Oda Yoshinobu looked at Shigeharu Takenaka and said in a deep voice.

"The family has now unified, and its power has become the first in the world. I don't know when we will really dominate the world, but I think we should put up an image of being true to our word. Because only in this way will other forces believe in the family, so that the family will be much easier on the road ahead. Oda Yoshinobu said lightly.

Shigeharu Takenaka did not refute what Oda Yoshinobu said, because he also knew the benefits of doing so. If a force has credibility, then many things will be twice the result with half the effort.

If nothing else, it's like the Azuchi treasure banknote, if it were the Takeda family, it would be impossible to issue it.

It's just that he still can't help but think, "But this ...... What does it have to do with being a vassal to the Ming Kingdom? "yes, what does it matter? History has proven that no matter when, Japan's submission to the Ming State is only a superficial effort, and the Japanese do not care, and the same is true of the Chinese Dynasty. In this case, what does it matter if you are called a minister?

Shaking his head, Oda Yoshinobu said lightly, "Although it doesn't matter for the time being, if the family sends troops overseas in the future, in the name of a vassal state of the Ming Kingdom, many things will not be so easy to handle......"

"This ......" Shigeharu Takenaka heard this, and his mouth suddenly grew in shock. Well, although he has always known that Oda Yoshinobu is very keen on building a navy, but in his heart, Oda Yoshinobu is only doing this to unify the world more easily by dominating the coastal seas, and he is also very aware of the huge profits of the Argotic Chamber of Commerce.

And even if Oda Yoshinobu built a base in Ezo and puppeted the Ryukyus not long ago, preparing to establish a base in Takayama Province, Shigeharu Takenaka didn't think too much about it, even if Oda Yoshinobu had mentioned the idea of sending troops to the open sea before.

"Lord, are you serious?!" Shigeharu Takenaka asked incredulously. He believed that the most exaggerated idea that the whole of Japan, including Oda Nobunaga, had ever thought of in his life was nothing more than the unification of Japan. It can be seen that Oda Yoshinobu means that Japan seems to be just a starting point.

"Nature is true!" Oda Yoshinobu smiled, "Shigeji you've also seen the world map that Louis brought before, don't you think...... Is Japan too small? ”

When he said this, Oda Yoshinobu exuded a strong aura of tyranny all over his body, and if he were an ordinary person, he would have bowed down directly in front of Oda Yoshinobu and shouted Long live the lord.

It's just a pity that Shigeharu Takenaka is not an ordinary person after all, as a member of the three military divisions under Oda Yoshinobu along with Li Huamei and Fernand, how could he be persuaded by Oda Yoshinobu so easily?

Shigeharu Takenaka just looked at Oda Yoshinobu so quietly, and what about Oda Yoshinobu? Still standing there and maintaining a posture that exudes the aura of a king. Just after a long time...... Oda Yoshinobu couldn't bear it.

"What's going on? There's no reason to fail, or is it that this kid has seen something? Alas, I knew I shouldn't have brought this kid in the first place. Oda Yoshishi thought anxiously with confidence.

At this moment, he suddenly heard Shigeharu Takenaka chuckling and asked him, "Lord, are you regretting waiting for your subordinates to come over now?" ”

"Yes......" Oda Yoshinobu heard this, and almost said what was in his heart, but fortunately, his inhuman reaction speed worked, and when the word was not spoken, he quickly replaced it with another word. Impossible! You are one of the three military divisions under my command, and now Huamei can't get away from Ningbo, so I can only rely on you to reach a trade agreement with Ming. ”

Oda Yoshinobu looked at Shigeharu Takenaka and pretended to be calm and said, just looking at the appearance, he can still fool people. It's a pity that in front of him is an old minister who has been with him for many years, how can he hide it?

"Lord, don't you know that you looked like just now, you were just imitating Your Highness?" Shigeji Takenaka said with a smile.

"What's wrong with imitating him?" Oda Yoshinobu asked strangely, and after finishing speaking, he suddenly looked at Shigeharu Takenaka with a sad face, "When did you find out?" Oda Yoshinobu asked helplessly.

"When you explain your reasons...... Shigeharu Takenaka said with an angry glance at Yoshinobu Oda, "With your character, how could you have such a strange idea?" ”

Hearing Shigeharu Takenaka's words, Oda Yoshinobu suddenly became interested, "Then what do you think the reason why I don't agree to be a vassal to the Ming Kingdom?" ”

"Confidence!" Shigeharu Takenaka looked at Oda Yoshinobu and said solemnly, "The confidence in the lord's body has never been seen by his subordinates, even in the body of the third prince of the province and His Royal Highness. Because even the two of them are only constantly pursuing the number of five or five in many things, but the people who are so sure that their family will be able to win the world like you, the lord, have never seen them. ”

"And your lord......" Shigeharu Takenaka said this, and couldn't help but shake his head, "To be honest, my subordinates don't know if you really don't take the world seriously, or because you are too confident in yourself, or both......"

"Uh......" Oda Yoshinobu was speechless when he heard this, because ...... Shigeharu Takenaka was right. The reason why he was unwilling to be a vassal to the Ming Kingdom was entirely Oda Yoshinobu's own problem.

Because in his opinion, if he has his own Oda family, why should he be a vassal to the Ming Kingdom? In addition to the territory, national strength or something is not as good as the Ming Kingdom, where else is it worse? Not to mention him, a traverser!
