Keijiro Maeda, along with Takixi, Yajiro and others, followed behind Yoshiko, and followed the attendants who came to lead Yoshiqin to Arako Castle, although the attendants were very curious why Keijiro Maeda would follow behind Yoshiqin, but he wisely chose not to ask. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Yajiro and the others were taken to the banquet location where they were by a waiter who was waiting halfway, but Yoshiqin and Maeda Keijiro went to the castle tower, and the banquet that Maeda Toshiya held for Yoshiqin was arranged in the castle tower parlor, and when Yoshihara and Maeda Keijiro arrived, there were only two people in the room: Maeda Toshiya and Kinoshita Toshiro.

The Rika family glanced at Keijiro Maeda behind Ji Qin in surprise, and first shouted loudly outside the door: "One more seat." Then he asked Ji Qin, who was sitting down, suspiciously, "Lord Hagiki, what is Keijiro?" ”

Keijiro Maeda sat cross-legged next to Yoshiqin by himself, and he didn't look at his uncle Toshiya Maeda, only smiled at Fujiyoshiro, and then closed his eyes and waited for the food to be served.

Ji Qin said hello to Fuji Yoshiro, and after sitting down, he replied to the Li family: "Hehe, I just accepted Keijiro as an apprentice, and he will follow me in the future and learn martial arts." ”

"This..."

The Li family glanced at Keijiro, who had never looked at him, pondered for a while, and sighed: "It's okay like this, Keijiro can follow Hagi-sama's side, and it is also his convincing, Keijiro, learn from Hagi-sama in the future, and I will take good care of your father." ”

After the Li family finished speaking, Keijiro Maeda opened his eyes and looked at the Li family: "I will take care of my father myself, teacher, please give me permission!" ”

Ji Qin glanced at the Li family, whose face was a little ugly, and nodded: "Your filial piety is very good, since you want to take your father with you, then you can bring it!" ”

"Thank you, teacher!"

Maeda Keijiro said gratefully to Ji Qin, and bowed, this time the face of the Li family was even more ugly, seeing that the originally celebratory banquet had the meaning of unhappy dispersion, Kinoshita Tojiro hurriedly said in a round field: "Since the private matter has been settled, then let's hurry up and start the meal, I'm a little hungry!" Toshi, Hagi-sama, Keijiro, please! ”

After speaking, Fujiyoshiro picked up a glass of sake, raised his glass to Yoshiqin, Maeda Toshiya and Maeda Keijiro, drank the sake in his hand, and turned the bottom of the cup upside down.

Ji Qin raised the wine glass, smiled and drank it all, Maeda Toshiya saw this, sighed, and drank the sake in the cup without a little left, Maeda Keijiro's attitude towards him He has long been used to it, but this time there are outsiders present, so Maeda Toshiya is a little unable to wipe his face, and now this glass of wine is down, but he also sees it, in the end, it is Oda Nobunaga who sees that the brother of the Rika family Rihisa is weak and sick, and Maeda Keijiro This kid is dressed all day long, so Nobunaga transferred the position of the governor of the Maeda family in Arashiko Castle directly to the Rika family, As a result, Keijiro was very unkind to this uncle who robbed him of his father's position as governor.

Keijiro took care of himself and eliminated the two dishes and one soup on his table (a plate of pickles, a small fish, and miso soup), ate chazuke, and drank two sips of sake from time to time, but he was very apologetic.

The three of Ji Qin were chatting while drinking, and they chatted and talked about the Asa Weaving Alliance.

Fuji Yoshiro took a sip of wine and asked very naturally: "Ji Qin (the relationship between the three of them is already good, so now they are all called names), the purpose of His Royal Highness Asai sending you here is not just an ordinary military alliance." ”

Ji Qin glanced at Fuji Yoshiro with a smile and replied: "Well, this alliance is indeed not just military, in that alliance, in addition to the offensive and defensive alliance, there are also things about business, in general, it is of great help to the development of the two families." ”

"In my opinion, it's more useful to attack and defend alliances, and I don't pay much attention to business or anything anyway."

Maeda Toshiie, as a samurai who was biased towards the battlefield, was not interested in the commercial exchanges that Yoshiqin said, and he was more interested in how to get more military achievements. On the other hand, Fuji Yoshiro is very interested in the business exchange in Ji Qin's mouth, no way, Fuji Yoshiro is very self-aware of his martial arts, and if he goes to the battlefield, he is likely to die, so he is happy to engage in logistics or something.

"Business? Can you be specific, and what is the use of business interoperability? ”

Fujiyoshiro is very smart and knows how to ask if he doesn't understand. Yoshiqin was stunned, Fujiyoshiro didn't understand business development, so can Oda Nobunaga understand? I won't skip this point directly, just talk about the offensive and defensive alliance, but with Fujiyoshiro's temperament, it is very likely that he will tell Nobunaga everything he has said, and this alliance can be completed through Fujiyoshiro.

Thinking of this, Ji Qin spoke: "Fuji Yoshiro, Li family, don't underestimate commerce, the development of agriculture can be said to be the foundation of the lord's survival, then the development of commerce is a guarantee of a lord's strength." How can anyone have soldiers without food, but after there are soldiers, do they have to spend money to buy weapons and equipment, not to mention using their own weapons and equipment, that is only possible for a small number of peasants. ”

After speaking, he glanced at Maeda Toshiya and Fujiyoshiro who were contemplating, but Ji Qin was stunned, after the business is developed, not only can he buy advanced weapons and equipment, but he can also develop a standing army, but these will be talked about when the real alliance is made, there is no hurry now.

Then Fujiyoshiro asked a few more questions about how to carry out business exchanges, and Maeda Toshiya also asked a few questions about how to promote the commercial development of the territory, and Yoshiqin answered them one by one, and the feast was eaten until the moon was over, and when he came out of the castle tower, Keijiro and Yoshiqin said goodbye and walked towards their own house. Takixi and the others stood on the open ground, waiting for Ji Qin, and after Ji Qin came out, they followed behind Ji Qin, and dozens of people slowly walked towards the Qimu station.

After Ji Qin left, Maeda Toshiya and Fuji Yoshiro came to the study, Fuji Yoshiro casually looked at the military strategy book collected by the Li family, and the Li family held a pen and sat on the futon, the two occasionally exchanged a few words, and the Li family wrote a few sentences.

In the early morning, a figure set off from Wasteland City and galloped towards Qingzhou City on horseback. A little after noon, a letter was handed into the hands of Nobunaga, who was listening to the retainers in a bored manner.

Opened the envelope at will, but Nobunaga's eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and he threw the letter in his hand aside, and the retainers present saw Nobunaga suddenly stand up from the futon, and quickly came to Shibata Katsuya's side, snatched the alliance in his hand, and laughed when he looked at it.

"Business, haha, good, good, it is to business, and a rich country is strong, from now on, give me a covenant of business exchange!"

After saying that, Nobunaga threw down the alliance and walked away directly with the little surname, and the retainers present looked at each other, not knowing what Nobunaga was crazy about, and actually didn't discuss the military alliance, but to discuss business, only Niwa Nagahide, who happened to be hit by the letter thrown by Nobunaga, knew what it was for.

(PS: In the end, I'm still asking for recommendation votes!) In addition, I recommend the novel "Sengoku Kaixiong" written by my friend Loser 01, a very wonderful Sengoku novel with Ukita Naoya as the protagonist, I hope you can go to the cheers! ）
