Chapter 1025: The Way to Make Money

Heian is still very filial, and since his father is jealous of Oda Nobunaga, he might as well add a little chaos to him. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info armed the Maori family and let them bite Oda hard. But Dad changed his mind, and he went with the flow.

Ping An took the letter from Maori Yuan and tilted his head to read it for a long time.

"Peace, what do you want?" The monkey asked with a grin.

"You see, this is a draft contract signed by Oda Nobunaga, and this is a letter from Mori Moto, and there is a difference of a month and a half in between, if you can turn the time around......"

The monkey was also dissatisfied, and soon understood Ping'an's plan, and stuck out his tongue, the people of the old Tang family were bad enough, so they took the grass contract to deceive Maori Yuan.

Oda Nobunaga was powerful, and he was unwilling to betray the interests of the Wa Kingdom, but the power of the Mori family was slightly weaker, and he participated in the battle to besiege Oda Nobunaga, and once he lost, everything was over.

At this time, he saw Oda Nobunaga receiving the aid of Daming, what would he think?

No need to ask, the old guy must have tried his best to curry favor with Da Ming, in exchange for the support of the Ming court, and also offered a sky-high price to buy firearms. And the letter was in the hand of peace.

Now Ping An wants to take Oda Nobunaga, he wants to sell him a good one, as long as the date is changed, it becomes Maori Yuan and he will first fall to Daming, and Daming did not agree, but he saw people and took a fancy to Oda Nobunaga. Think about whether Nobunaga-san will be more grateful to Dade?

And changing the date is equivalent to telling Oda Nobunaga that someone has already taken refuge in the Ming Dynasty, you are not the first, and it is nothing to agree to a little condition.

There is no doubt that the originally agreed draft treaty will be implemented more quickly......

It's a great idea, but how do you do it?

The monkey ran to his house and mysteriously pulled out an old box. After opening, Ping An was also startled, there were shovels, pickaxes, shovels, axes, hammers, grabbing, no less than a dozen tools, as well as flints, fire sickles, fire folds, etc., the monkey looked carefully for a long time, took out a small sealed porcelain bottle from the side, poured a little powder out, spit out a little saliva, waited for a while, he stretched out his finger, lightly wiped it on the date, and a magical scene appeared, and the handwriting disappeared.

"How is it, my immortal skills are powerful, right?"

"Fart!" Ping An scolded angrily: "You know the fairy art of bullshit, hurry up and recruit from the truth!" He reached out with two palms and clasped them around the monkey's neck.

"If you don't tell the truth, you will be punished!"

"Don't, I can't recruit it." The monkey hurriedly said, it turned out that there was a very thin old monk in the small station, and the monkey always played in his broken temple when he was a child.

One day the old monk called him inside and took out a box and gave it to the monkey. It turned out that the old monk was born in tomb robbery in his early years, and when he was old, he wanted to find a successor, the monkey was thin and flexible, smart and alert, and the old monk liked it very much, but he didn't live long, and he couldn't give him the ability to pass the body, so he could only leave the used tools to him and make a thought.

"Master said that to find a good location of the tomb, you should write it down on paper, but for fear of being recognized, you have to paint this kind of thing, and the handwriting will disappear, and when you use it, you can bake it on a fire and it will appear again."

"I see!"

Ping An snatched the small porcelain vase and tried it several times in a row, and sure enough, the distressed monkey jumped straight to his feet.

"My eldest young master, don't waste good things, it's important to get down to business!"

"By the way, if you write it at this time, will it also disappear?" ”

"Just wait for the paper to dry, but if it gets wet, it will disappear. If you roast it over a fire, the handwriting will overlap twice. ”

Ping An nodded, waited until the paper was dry, and carefully filled in the time.

"Your Excellency Oda Nobunaga, this is five hundred firearms, compared to your country's iron cannons, you can verify for yourself, and these twenty officials are hired from the Ming Dynasty, they are proficient in measurement, bookkeeping, water conservancy, commerce, taxation, personnel, disaster relief...... I'm sure they'll multiply the strength of your subordinates, and by the way, their money in your country is 1,000 taels of silver a year, and they will stay for two years at most! ”

Two thousand taels!

The eyes of the little officials present were red, they worked hard and greedy for a lifetime, and they may not be able to get so much money, it is four thousand taels in two years, it is worth it!

Oda Nobunaga doesn't care much about silver, who let the Wa Kingdom have nothing but a lot of silver!

He cared more about the skills of these people, and immediately asked people to take them down, and he called all his cronies over to verify the power of the firecracker.

A hundred paces away, the hardwood target was set up, the gunfire rang out, the smoke of gunpowder filled the air, and three shots were fired in succession, and the samurai of the Wa Kingdom retreated to the side. Before the smoke cleared, they ran in front of the target.

As a result, the targets of the hardwood were all shattered, and there were sawdust all over the ground, and if this hit a person's body, it would not become mud!

The excited retainers knelt on the ground, crying and screaming, and those samurai did not dare to hold the fire gun in their hands, but carefully put it on their heads, respecting them like gods.

Oda Nobunaga was so excited that he immediately ordered the construction of a shrine next to Honnoji Temple to enshrine the fire gun.

Ping An really can't understand the thinking of the Japanese people, isn't it just a gun, as for the gods, it is really a barbarian land, ignorant and widowed!

"Your Excellency Oda Nobunaga, we have always been sincere, this is a letter from Mori Moto to us just a few months ago, take it!"

Ping An threw it to Oda in a dashing manner, and Oda Nobunaga took it in his hand, looked at it carefully several times, and suddenly burst into a rage, and tore the letter to shreds in anger.

"Shameless, Maori Yuan, you old bastard, I won't let you go!"

Oda Nobunaga screamed wildly for a long time, and he finally accepted the fact that Ming people do have too many choices, and they don't need to hang themselves from a tree, everyone is like this, and he needs to hurry up even more!

Five hundred new guns were enough to withstand three thousand iron cannons, and Oda Nobunaga's strength was doubled. What surprised him even more was the officials from Daming, their efficiency was simply shocking.

Originally, there were more than a dozen people, and the accounts that could not be settled in a month, they only had two people, and they could make it clear in three days, without the slightest mistake.

The territory of the Wa Kingdom was small, the fields were distorted, and Oda Nobunaga had many difficulties in carrying out land inspection, so the officials of the Ming Dynasty took a ruler and measured it, drew a picture on paper, and calculated the accurate result.

The army went to war, the most difficult thing was the grain and grass military supplies, the scale of the war before the Wa Kingdom was very small, in recent years, tens of thousands of people, Oda Nobunaga needed to have hundreds of people to coordinate the work of grain transportation, but the Ming side only needed three people!

In fact, this is still not full force, think about the hundreds of thousands of people in the southeast to resist the Japanese, and then think about the sweep of the Ping, just sent troops of nearly 100,000 people, as well as hundreds of thousands of people, several provinces, countless workshops and workshops...... It simply cannot be done without a strong civilian service.

They were in the Ming Dynasty, perhaps ordinary, even mediocre and greedy, but when they arrived in the Wa Kingdom, they became the top administrative talents.

In just half a month, they were ready for 10,000 people to go on the expedition.

At the same time, Oda Nobunaga's biggest opponent, Takeda Shingen, and the 25,000 men of the Hojo family came to Kyoto, and Oda Nobunaga's only ally, Tokugawa Ieyasu, was beaten to the point and hid in Hamamatsu Castle, not daring to come out.

Takeda's army marched by land and water, getting closer and closer to Oda Nobunaga's lair.

The decisive battle between the two sides took place in the fourth month of their arrival in the kingdom of Ping'an.

After only three days, Heian barely felt anything, and the battle was over, and Oda Nobunaga's men cheered wildly. During the battle, Oda Nobunaga suddenly sent soldiers equipped with new firearms and crushed his opponent in one fell swoop, and Takeda Shingen also suffered a lead pellet and died while retreating.

Almost at the same time, the old fox died.

The two enemies disappeared at the same time, and the former encirclement was gone. Oda Nobunaga was overjoyed, and the world Buwu finally took the most critical step.

Of course, he would not be so carried away as to ignore the strength of the Ming Court, those terrible firearms, it was like harvesting wheat to harvest life, five hundred soldiers, not a single one died in battle, in fact, there were thousands of enemies in their hands.

After the war, he found peace for the first time and asked for more weapons and more talents.

……

"The tiger father has no dogs, and the strong generals have no weak soldiers." Gao Gong laughed approvingly, "All this gold and silver were used by Oda Nobunaga to buy weapons?" ”

"That's right, this is the first part, according to the estimate, this year's trade volume between us and the Japanese and North Korea will exceed 20 million taels, and by next year, we will strive to reach 35 million taels." Tang Yi said with a smile: "If it goes well, the south will knock on the gates of Annam, Siam, and Java, plus Luzon, our trade next year will be able to return to before the silver crisis, and these are all in our hands, and no one can snatch them!" ”

The dark clouds that pressed on everyone's hearts finally dispersed, foreign trade prospered, the workshops in the southeast were re-operated, and the Ming Dynasty came back to life.

It's really uncomfortable to be sanctioned by someone's neck, and from this year onwards, we will recruit more sailors, build big ships, cast cannons, and take Malacca.

As long as you occupy Malacca, you can go west into South Asia, India's population is large, almost equivalent to six or seven percent of the Ming Dynasty, the market is huge, the products are abundant, the best thing is that the Indians are very obedient, from ancient times to the present, as long as you can gather 10,000 cavalry, capture a few mountain passes in the north of India, the entire South Asian subcontinent will quickly bend your knees and hold your head, to get what you want......

"Yuanfu, it's a good thing to knock on the gate of the Wa Kingdom, but these gold and silver don't belong to the imperial court, right?" Zhang Juzheng pondered and asked,

"That's right, this is the property of Beiyang Company, and it will be deposited in Daming Savings Bank now."

Zhao Zhenji was puzzled and asked, "What did Yuanfu let us see?" Drooling? ”

"Dazhou Gong, although these gold and silver cannot be misappropriated, but the Daming Savings Bank has a stable source of gold and silver, and silver dollars and bank bills can be issued!"

Hesheng Yuan was defeated because there was no source of silver, foreign trade was broken, people lost confidence, and the new Daming Savings Bank naturally would not repeat the mistakes of the past.

"The Wa Kingdom can produce more than 200 tons of silver every year, and with gold, there are about 3.5 million taels of physical gold and silver, which can be turned into currency, and more than 30 million yuan can be issued every year when it is magnified tenfold...... So we don't have to worry about money anymore! (To be continued.) )
