Broadly speaking, a spy is a person who works as a secret detective to spy on confidential information or sabotage from an adversary or competitor in order to benefit the party he is working for.
As a person sent to Nagasaki to spy on secrets, intelligence, or reconnaissance, Karl still knew that his power was somewhat inadequate.
Only these novice ghosts know what news they can find, but if they can successfully complete this task, they will definitely be of great help to their ranking in the Eastern Army sequence in the future.
decided that he was mainly to serve for the Brittan Eastern Army, and he didn't care about his identity as an Dongying at all, so I have to say that the experience of this onmyoji is really tortuous.
Just when he was full of fantasies about his future life, his subordinates reminded him that Nagasaki was coming.
"Matsuda-sama, it's time to Nagasaki!"
"Huh? That's it? ”
The subordinates looked at their own head officer a little helplessly, "There are ships escorting you day and night, and it's not like taking the land route in the past." ”
"Yes, too...... Ahem, it's time for the brothers to get to work, the first thing we have to do is ...... It's ......"
After thinking about it for a long time and not thinking of what to say, Carl instantly felt a little embarrassed, but his stomach growled, "That's right, eat first!" ”
"Hooray! Dine! ”
The subordinates are very happy, in the previous occupation, it was difficult to have enough to eat, usually a busy day can only buy a few rice balls to eat, but now there is food before the start of work - it is really promising.
It's just that the amount of food in this group of people is really terrifying, and the reception of the restaurants in Nagasaki City is really depressed, especially the little two who are responsible for helping.
"Guests...... Can you please be more elegant, it's rude for you to eat like this......"
"We've been hungry for a long time, so let's talk about something wrong later." Karl glanced at him insincerely, and said casually, "It's better if you can get a little more discount." ”
As soon as he heard such an outrageous bargain, the face of the little two suddenly became gloomy, and Carl's clothes looked like ordinary people, his tone became not very good, "I went to this restaurant to eat and ordered the cheapest food, and the amount asked for was so large, you guys are here to make trouble, right?" ”
He pointed at the Shinsengumi with emotion, "You don't look at your identity, and you came here to make trouble, do you want Tokugawa-sama to know?" ”
"Huh?" Karl was taken aback, could it be that this store would still have something to do with the Tokugawa family? He didn't know what to say for a while.
"Cut, it's so lofty, who doesn't know that the so-called Tokugawa-sama is an illegitimate child at all." There was a strange voice next to him, Xiao Er's face was a little unhappy, but when he saw that person, he didn't dare to say anything.
"You wait...... One day, I'll be taught a lesson by Lord Tokugawa......"
"I hope so." The man who spoke had already walked over, his natural gray curls becoming his trademark, carrying a traditional katana at his waist, but the most attractive thing was the dead fish eyes......
"Thank you for your help, I don't know what to call you yet?" Of course, Carl had to return the same kindness in the face of friendliness, but the gray curly didn't seem to be looking at him, keeping an eye on the food.
"It's so good, I can order so much food...... "Curly-haired Dudana's whisper was naturally heard by Carl, and he immediately invited him to eat with him, this time of course, the order was better.
"I didn't expect you to be so generous, then I'm welcome! Boss, please bring two glutinous rice cakes, three Dafu, four pineapple cakes, and a few special snacks! ”
"No problem!"
Contradictions and complaints are not as important as business, and Carl never thought that the amount of food in this curly hair was not small at all, but why was it all sweets?
Curly noticed his eyes, "Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Taiga Sakata, a free wanderer who can help you solve a lot of troubles." ”
"I can see this...... I'm Matsuda Shingo, and these people are...... Come with me to Nagasaki to find work, you can call us the Shinsengumi! ”
That's right, as soon as he came up, he told the truth that it was for that kind of momentum, and Carl's words further improved the momentum of his subordinates, and the speed of eating and releasing increased by two hundred!
"Hey! I didn't expect you to come looking for a job too, do you want to work together? ”
"How?"
"Lord Tokugawa Ieyasu is gathering all kinds of mercenaries, of course, I don't want to go to the battlefield to be cannon fodder, but there are still a lot of troublesome things to do in the city, and there are also a lot of profits."
"I see, this is indeed ......" Carl originally wanted to praise the other party, but Sakata Taiga has started to eat desserts and is super fast, do you really not get sick if you eat like this?
There is always an end to the mealtime, but when they left, Karl was directly frightened by Nagasaki's consumption level!
"Make no mistake! Just order food, at most those desserts are a little more expensive, how dare you charge fifty!? ”
"That's the price, guest!"
The shopkeeper had a bitter face, there were too many complaints from the customers these days, and he could only explain them one by one, "It's all because of the army, and the price of everything is rising, so the food is ......."
“…… Then this is too expensive, can the nobles accept it? ”
"Of course they can, because a Xiyi merchant helped Tokugawa-sama print a new currency, called a military ticket, which can be exchanged for double the value after the victory of the war, and I receive a lot these days!"
"I see...... That, so be it. ”
Karl shook his head and smiled wryly to pay the bill, and turned around and walked towards the street outside with the Shinsengumi and Sakata Taiga, only to see that they were all ashigaru full of excitement, the children of the nobility walking the streets, and the busy merchants and craftsmen.
Of course, there are also the homeless beggars who are described as withered and tattered, as well as the poor worms who operate the lowly labor, and they are estimated to be the most bitter in this war.
"What are you waiting for, hurry up and get to work?" Sakata saw that Carl was fluting again, and thought it would be better to remind him.
"Yes, anyway, their lives and deaths have nothing to do with me, I don't know where to work?"
"I just know there's a good job, let's go to the port together, right?"
"Harbor?" Could it be that he is responsible for the transportation of military supplies or something...... That's great!
