Chapter 151: Encounter with Nanban (Second Update)
Although Yamamoto Shixing didn't understand Chinese, he was not stupid, and there was a hint of something wrong in Wang Dan's cunning eyes, and his smiling expression immediately changed, and he said coldly on the spot: "What does Mr. Wang mean by this?" All we are looking for is to create gold and silver accessories for gifts to give to friends, if Mr. Wang thinks we need to learn smelting technology, why do you still want to ask you? We can go to Zhoufang Ouchi's house, but Ouchi's family mastered the ash blowing method more than ten years ago. ”
"This ......" Wang Dan can't be ridiculous now, he doesn't know the skills of craftsmen at all, and he doesn't know that the Ouchi family relied on the Su Taibei family to master the ash blowing method more than ten years ago, of course, he doesn't know that the ash blowing method mastered by the Ouchi family is only the step of copper and lead separation, and the Ouchi family only achieves this step of separation.
"We just want to hire a skilled goldsmith, for which we can add another five hundred taels of silver, this is our final offer, please Mr. Wang make a decision!"
Wang Dan hesitated for a moment, thinking that as long as he told the craftsman not to talk about the ash blowing method, it was not a big problem, so he said: "Okay! Leave this matter to Wang! ”
Before the end, Kansuke Yamamoto did not forget to threaten with compassion: "I have to remind Mr. Wang one more thing!" The gold and silver utensils we are going to make are for the nobles, and if you get into trouble by stuffing a goldsmith into us, don't blame us for coming to you! ”
"Ugh! Say! Say! Wang has a fellow villager who is the best goldsmith, as long as Mr. Yamamoto guarantees that he will only borrow it for half a year, Wang will definitely transfer him for you to send! "Wang Dan is a rich businessman who is used to fine clothes and fine food, and he doesn't even see pirates a few times a year, and at first glance, he saw Yamamoto Kansuke's one-eyed scarface and mustache face, showing a fierce expression, and was so frightened that he almost got under the table.
"Good! That's it! For a month, someone will come to trade with Mr. Wang, and we will take our leave! After Kansuke Yamamoto finished speaking, he beckoned the people to leave quickly.
Leaving the Pinghai firm, Kira Yoshitoki used the excuse of having a private affair to do, and finally coaxed Yamamoto Tokiyuki back, and took Watanabe Takatsuna into a small wine house, at this time, Hattori Masaaki, who had been hidden for a long time, appeared in a small cubicle of the wine house and said to him: "This is a secret point set up by my Hattori family, please rest assured!" It's absolutely safe here! ”
"Hmmm! Zhengqing has worked hard! Kira nodded, watched him quietly exit the room, and then said to Watanabe Takatsuna: "Takatsuna must have worked very hard to teach the three of them these days!" ”
"It's hard work! Zuo Jin's talent is very good, his subordinates' spear skills have been learned by him Sancheng, and there will be no problem in surpassing his subordinates over time, although Sanmi's brain is a little slower, but this kid has a simple temperament, and the progress of cultivation is also very fast, and his subordinates' Inuko Gengoro has followed his subordinates to practice for a few years, and the extent to which he can cultivate after a solid foundation depends on personal efforts and opportunities. Watanabe Takatsuna sighed, looking very satisfied with the three apprentices.
"In the future, the family will also ask Gao Gang for advice on su gun skills, and it will be more troublesome for Gao Gang then." Kira Yoshitoki said with a smile, he was hinting at Watanabe Takatsuna, I may ask you but don't expect to be accepted as an apprentice, his teacher is only two people, and it was these two people in the past and these two people in the future.
"Your Majesty must know everything and say everything!" Watanabe Takatsuna replied respectfully, and I don't know if I heard the meaning of this remark.
……
As we all know, Japan is a famous silver-producing country, in this era Japan's silver mines have not yet fully burst out of production, such as Ikuno Silver Mountain is still in the stage of mining, but the price of silver is also expensive, the standard exchange price is silver ten taels equal to two five hundred Wen Yongle money, that is, about equal to ten taels of silver is equal to the standard of ten taels of silver is equal to ten pieces of iron.
A thousand taels of silver is a thousand kan money, such a large sum of money for a few craftsmen seems to be quite expensive, but the level of construction in Japan is very poor, Kyoto, such a capital level city is only half of the board houses, the houses in other areas are still mainly grass, the Kira family's Sakamoto Castle also relied on strong financial resources to complete part of the board leaf renovation, the cost of complete renovation is too high is not as good as building a few more new towns.
This time, Kira Yoshitoki sneaked in and didn't dare to show up in public, and kept hiding in a sake brewhouse with his identity, and then sent a group of people to secretly contact Tsuda Muneji, originally intending to negotiate another carriage business with Tennoji Daya, but the news he got was greatly unexpected by him, Yamaoka Nagaga said in a low voice: "Tennoji Ya Sokazu said that there are already merchants in Sakai Town who have imitated horse-drawn carriages, so the price may be reduced by half." ”
"What? Did Munekazu Tsuda really say that? Kira Yoshishi narrowed his eyes, his face immediately darkened, and he snorted coldly: "What a cunning guy, they must have thought about copying it a long time ago, right?" No wonder I talked about the big price so happily last time, and now I see that my family has won the three good houses and I am worried about offending my family, so I came up with a half-price strategy? ”
Last year, when the second batch of iron cannons were purchased, he noticed the ambiguous attitude of the Tsuda family, and this imitation of the carriage further verified his idea. Either there is something to rely on, that is, to die, obviously the imitator is not dead, so the answer is not simple?
"Half price? Promise him! It's still the same scale as last time, and after the carriage business ends this time, the contract will be temporarily terminated! "Business has reached the point of ruthlessness in doing this, and Kira Yoshitoki has made no secret of his disgust with the Tsuda family's behavior in the past and twilight, and he must make the Tsuda family realize that he has done something wrong.
After dealing with the affairs of the Tsuda family, Kira Yoshitoki, disguised as an ordinary businessman, quietly slipped into Sakai Town with a group of more than a dozen people to go shopping, and it has been more than a year since the last trip to Sakai Town, and it seems that Sakai Town is more prosperous than before after a year, and the flow of people on the street has increased significantly.
It is said that the construction of new towns in Sakai Town is still being built, and the functions of various types of occupations such as craftsmen, merchants, and temples are divided into separate towns, which is also a characteristic of Sakamoto Castle Town, but I don't know who is learning from whom.
Unconsciously strolled to the main port of Sakai Town, here is the first time he has come, because it is the busiest area of Sakai Town, every day there is a large number of passenger flow, cargo flow from this transfer, the port is full of different sizes of earth warehouses, in the port near the hawker is also extraordinarily many, as large as knives, guns and horses, as small as a needle and a thread to sell the goods are really dazzling.
Many of the wealthy merchants in Sakai Town started with these small vendors, and gradually developed their own commercial houses, and then gradually expanded into a network of commercial houses, and their main business names were as proud as the Tennoji House in Sakai Town, and while wandering around, Yamaoka Nagashi suddenly ran over and said, "The museum ...... Your Highness, there are a lot of huge ships over there! ”
"Oh! What a ship! Let me see first! "Following the direction of the hill's long finger, a large crowd of people gathered in front of a huge pier, where there were indeed many huge sailing ships moored, these sailing ships had a very different shape from the traditional Japanese wooden boats, huge sails and spinnakers, multiple decks, and high watchtowers all indicate that this is a fleet from the Nanban.
