In the assessment room of the Lord's Pavilion, several middle-aged men in gorgeous costumes were surrounding a three-foot-tall jade unicorn, staring intently.

I saw this jade unicorn, the whole body is turquoise, lifelike, faintly filled with colorful glow, which makes people feel refreshed when they see it, and they can't help but pour their whole heart into it......

"A few adults, this artifact is said to have the power to hook the soul, so don't focus too much." Miura Tomomitsu saw that Oda Nobunaga and the three of them were sick, and reminded him in time.

When Oda Nobunaga heard this, he withdrew his eyes, and couldn't help but admire, and said: "This thing is really magical, it's the first time I've seen it in my life, where does this jade come from?" ”

Ampei Demao found that this jade unicorn, although it was green and clear, there was a faint blue color in its body, and it was full of spirituality, and said tentatively: "Could this be the ancient divine jade?" ”

"Master Ampere is really good eyesight!" Miura Zhiguang continued: "Legend has it that this jade is produced in Kunlun Mountain, in ancient times, Kunlun is the habitat of the gods, the paradise of cultivators, all day long, the fairy spirit is horizontal, the sun is shining, the reason is that there is a huge ancient jade in the mountain, sucking the earth spirit, receiving the grace of heaven, is to contain the supreme spiritual power, making Kunlun Mountain become the world's sacred mountain. ”

Hearing this, Akiyama Hongyi nodded and smiled, stroked his goatee, and said: "Later, after the war of gods and demons, the ancient god jade was destroyed by the demons, the immortal qi of Kunlun Mountain was cut off, and the leylines were damaged. I heard that this catastrophe affected the people of the world, and the three major dragon veins were also damaged one after another, making the sky fall to the northwest, the earth to the southeast, and the lives were devastated. ”

"Since then, the fragments of the ancient god jade are scattered everywhere, although the demon world has completely failed, but there are still scattered demons in various places to continue to plague the world, Middle-earth has gone through hundreds of years of demon subjugation and subjugation, and finally Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism have joined forces to open up the wisdom of the people and educate the people, so as to restore the past Qingning of the Middle Earth Shenzhou." This sentence was said by Ampeidermau.

Now the two of them began to take this opportunity to show off their knowledge and selflessly teach and solve their doubts. However, after these words, he was also stunned by what the hero Oda Nobunaga said, and wondered why Middle-earth was always favored by God, and after several disasters and ups and downs, it was still prosperous.

I think of my great Japan, but also blessed by the god Amaterasu, but the lack of leylines, the land is poor and the people are poor, one day when the widow ends this troubled world, I must drink Ma Donghai, a glimpse of the splendid style of China......

Different from the "Spring and Autumn Dream" in the overlord's heart, Miura Zhiguang, as a businessman, is thinking about how to get enough oil and water from this errand, but at this time, he also feels sincere admiration for the erudition of the two masters.

Due to trade contacts, he often traveled between Japan and the Ming Dynasty, and the people he came into contact with were not only officials and businessmen, but also involved in all aspects of the three religions and nine streams, and he inquired about the origin of this jade unicorn.

Thinking that back then, demons were rampant, and the emperor of Middle-earth knelt down to the heavens and asked for divine decree to eradicate demons by combining the power of the two worlds of heaven and earth. First of all, Qin Shi Huang inherited the will of heaven and took the opportunity of the eastern tour to bury the golden tripod artifact in the major mountains and rivers to shock the dragon vein; Later, Lao Jun was reincarnated as Zhang Daoling, created the Heavenly Master Sect, and sealed the major demons with the power of the earth's leyline.

After stabilizing the dragon vein and subduing the demons, it is hundreds of years of respecting Confucianism and rejuvenating the Tao, and finally the Tang Empire on the basis of dominating the world, greatly reinvigorating and reshaping the righteous path of Tiangang, and finally completely eliminated the demonic anger, and since then the world has been restored. Until now, the dynasty has changed to the Ming Dynasty, and there are no more demons rampant in the Middle Kingdom, and all the people live and work in peace and contentment, which is really enviable.

This time, the Shimai family was entrusted with this important task, and went to Daming to find an artifact that could gather dragon energy, although Miura Zhiguang didn't know the details, but he also vaguely guessed that the stakes were high, so he didn't dare to slack off, using various relationships, several twists and turns, and spent a lot of money to buy this thing from a thief.

This jade unicorn is the holy object of Longhu Mountain, the legend is to seal the demons in the mountain used, and then the demons do not know where to go, this thing has lost its original value, but has been carefully kept by the Heavenly Master Sect, and later the warlords at the end of the Tang Dynasty were divided, and the five dynasties and ten countries were in turmoil and strife......

Unexpectedly, now that he has seen the light of day in Japan, I don't know if it indicates some kind of providence. However, as far as Japan's current war is concerned, if you want to truly eliminate demonic anger, you must follow the example of Middle-earth, first calm down the troubled times, and unify the world. And looking at the current figures, the person who can take on this important task is really the Nobundai in front of him......

Just when Miura Tomomitsu was in deep thought, he suddenly heard Oda Nobunaga say: "This artifact can really gather dragon energy, shock demons, and protect our country's eternal peace?" ”

Ampey Tokushige and Akiyama Hiroki both nodded yes, and Ampei Toshigeru said: "Obtaining this ancient artifact is really the blessing of Amaterasu, and of course, it is also the blessing of His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness Nobunaga, and this credit belongs to Mr. Sanpu." ”

When Miura Tomomitsu heard this, his face was happy, and he hurriedly bowed down to salute: "It is a blessing for the Shimai family to be able to serve Nobu-sama. ”

Oda Nobunaga turned his head and said, "Mr. Miura, you don't have to be too modest, you have worked hard this time, and you have spent a lot of money, right?" ”

When Miura Zhiguang heard this, he thought that he had finally talked about the topic, so he bowed deeply again and said: "Don't dare to deceive the letter lord, because the Daming Sea is very strict, and it is stipulated that the sails are not allowed to enter the sea, so all the goods can only be smuggled, and it is necessary to find someone to pull the strings, and to buy through all the checkpoints, therefore, the cost is ......."

As he said this, Tomomitsu Miura raised his eyes and looked at Oda Nobunaga. Sure enough, Nobunaga waved his folding fan and said, "But it doesn't hurt to say it, can my Oda family still owe you?" ”

"Thank you, Mr. Shin." Miura Tomomitsu bowed deeply again and continued: "This artifact is worth a lot of money, plus the cost of road transportation and shipping, as well as various expenses for dredging the checkpoints, it costs about two thousand taels of gold in total. ”

When the three of them heard this, they were all shocked, although they knew that this thing must be very valuable, but they didn't expect that this Miura Tomomitsu would dare to open his mouth so loudly in front of Nobunaga, it was really bold.

Ampei Demao couldn't stop scolding in his heart: Profiteer, really a shameless profiteer.

Seeing the look of surprise on the faces of the three of them, Miura Tomomitsu smiled slightly, and said, "However, due to the long distance and the delay in the hour, this artifact arrived two days later than the agreed date. The Shimai family has always been honest, so we voluntarily lowered it by 500 taels, and Nobushi only had to pay 1,500 taels of gold. ”

It was another big gesture as soon as he spoke, only to hear the surprise on the faces of Ampei Tokumao and Akiyama Hongyi.

Without waiting for the three of them to speak, Tomomitsu Miura continued: "Of course, if Nobu-sama does have any difficulties, or feels that the price is unfair, we can discuss further. ”

Nobunaga didn't want to, Oda Nobunaga laughed and said: "Just two thousand taels of gold, why hang up, although it has been delayed for two days, the widow will not blame you, just according to the price you said, two thousand taels!" ”

Miura Tomomitsu was overjoyed in his heart, hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and said excitedly: "Xiaomin on behalf of my family lord Shimai Zongyan thanks Lord Shin-sama, if there is a dispatch in the future, the Shimai family will do their best and do their best." ”

Just when Ampei Tokushige and Akiyama Hiroki were surprised, they heard Nobunaga say to Tomomitsu Miura: "Don't be busy thanking me first, the joy is still to come, what the widow promised you is not ordinary gold, but the famous Kai gold." ”

Hearing this, Tomomitsu Miura, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned for a moment, thinking that Kai Gold was produced in Kai Country in the Kanto region. But this country is currently under the control of the Takeda clan, and he Oda Nobunaga does not use the gold from his own gold mine, but uses Kai gold, which is thousands of miles away, why?

At this time, Ampei Toshigeru and Akiyama Hongyi, who were standing on the side, secretly looked at each other and smiled, unconsciously.

I also heard Oda Nobunaga say: "The widow's eldest son, Oda Nobutada, and the general Takigawa Kazuyoshi, have led a large army to the two countries of Kai and Shinano, and in a few days, they will be able to exterminate the Takeda clan. Now, the widow will give you a note first, what do you think? ”

When Oda Nobunaga said these words, Tomomitsu Miura had already vaguely guessed the meaning, and he couldn't help but feel extremely angry at the persistence of this "iron rooster". At this time, when he heard the other party's question, he didn't dare not answer, but he didn't know how to answer, so he had to stand up slowly, covering his embarrassment, and at the same time, his brain was running rapidly, thinking about countermeasures......

Miura Tomomitsu secretly glanced at Oda Nobunaga with the afterglow of his eyes, and found that the other party was holding the folding fan with his right hand and gently tapping it on the palm of his left hand.

But such a small voice reached the ears of Miura Tomomitsu, but it was amazing. At this time, Oda Nobunaga was smiling head-on, staring at him with two eyes, and Miura Tomomitsu only felt that this pair of eyes pierced his heart, making him uncomfortable, and suddenly shivered......

He secretly wiped the beads of sweat from his sideburns with his sleeve, and secretly thought, it is said that when he was still the prince of Owari Province, the Nobunaga Duke in front of him had bought iron cannons from merchants in the way of giving him the status of a samurai and accepting him as a retainer.

Now, this Nobunaga Duke has leaned towards the government and the opposition, and his strength is far from the same, so I can't refuse him no matter what today, otherwise this "Sixth Heaven Demon King" may be able to "click" me on the spot......

Moreover, looking at today, with the divine power and power of Oda Nobunaga, it is needless to say that the Takeda clan is exterminated, and even the pacification of the world is just around the corner......

Thinking of this, he straightened the sleeves of his robe, and said with a smile on his face: "Nobu-sama commanded, how can the villain not do it, but the villain is soft-spoken in the Shimai family, and such a major decision needs to be reported to the head of the family." ”

"That's easy, you go back first. As for this jade unicorn, leave it here for the time being, keep it on your behalf, and when your master Shimai Zongyan comes, we will talk about it in detail. Oda Nobunaga still looked at ease.

After careful consideration just now, Miura Tomomitsu had already thought of a countermeasure, and only heard him say unhurriedly: "The head of the family is old, and now he lives in Sakai Port and rarely comes out to walk around, but when the villain came, the head of the family repeatedly told him that Nobu-sama is a great hero who ended today's troubled times, and he is planning for the common people in the world, and he told me to make this deal no matter what, and hand over Nobuyo-sama as a friend." Today, in order to live up to this mission, the villain has a proposal, I wonder if the letter is willing to listen? ”

"Tell the widow what you say."

"Just do as the letter lord said, and when the lord conquers Kai in the future, we will pay this deposit, and we don't plan to ask for the interest in it, but ......" Speaking of this, Miura Tomomitsu peeked at Oda Nobunaga again, and found that the other party did not have any displeased expression, but motioned for him to continue, as if he already knew that he had something to say below.

Miura Tomomitsu smiled slightly: "It's just that our Shimai family also wants to march into Kai for the adults, and make a modest contribution, such as military rations, horses, forage, weapons, and even iron cannons, and our Shimai family will work for the adults, I don't know what you think?" ”

"Okay, the widow is approved, but for the time being, it can only be the army in the direction of Kai!"

Miura Tomomitsu didn't want the lion to open his mouth and dabble too much, so he happily nodded in agreement.

Abe Tokushige and Akiyama Hiroki were really eye-opening on the sidelines, and they couldn't help but praise Tomomitsu Miura's strategy of retreating into advance, and at the same time admired the scheming and wisdom of Oda Nobunaga.

You know, the war is actually fighting for financial resources, the so-called "soldiers and horses have not moved, grain and grass first", and the Shimai family will fish this oil and water in their hands, it can be said that with the Oda army everywhere it goes, there will be the shadow of his Shimai family, and in the future, with the unification of Japan, the cooperation with the Oda family will be further expanded, and a huge commercial empire will also be established, and the two thousand taels of gold will be his Shimai family sooner or later.

For Oda Nobunaga, the Tsuda family was originally responsible for his own iron cannon and other material business, and he also built his own iron cannon workshop, which could be produced and sold by himself. Now he promised the Shimai family to intervene, but only agreed to Kai's direction of this army, so that the two families will inevitably compete to lower the price, and the ultimate beneficiary at that time is still him Oda Nobunaga.

In this way, under the witness of an onmyoji and a god, the politicians and merchants reached a final agreement, and both sides took what they needed, but the Takeda clan, which was already declining, was treated as a piece of fish.
