Chapter 114: Purchasing Weapons
"I don't know what weapons His Highness Lu Dao needs?" , Hearing that Masahiro needed to purchase weapons, Kamiya Shaoce immediately asked. Since there is business delivered to the door, and it is thousands of business, of course he will not miss it easily.
"A complete set of hats, rudimentary armor, cage hands, pendants, and cheeks," said Masarashi, "400 sets are needed, and the coins are insufficient, and the proceeds of snow salt are used to make up for them." "Because these weapons are mainly made of bamboo, cloth and a small amount of iron, and they are relatively easy to produce at present, according to the current price, the whole set is about 11 times, compared to those armor that is mostly iron, it is already very cheap. Why does Zhengliang need such a large amount of armor? The main reason is that the armor of the Luo family's standing ashigaru equipment is too rudimentary, except for the samurai who can wear a simple armor, the rest of the general ashigaru are without any armor, and these ashigaru are at best an upgraded version of the peasant soldier who holds a weapon and also implements formal training. With such weapons and equipment, once encountering an enemy with better equipment, it would be a great loss, so Masahiro made up his mind to equip all the Luo family's standing equipment with a simple version of the sufficiency.
"Your Highness, it may take two months to purchase such a large amount of armor," Shenya Shaoce calculated in his heart and said after a while.
"It doesn't matter, let's disperse the purchased armor and transport it to the Luo family's territory every month, and be careful to cover it up, so that no one knows about these materials," Masahiro agreed, "In addition, please find some craftsmen in this area for our family, and our family guarantees that they will be rich." "After all, daily armor maintenance also needs to be taken care of.
"It's... I'm afraid it's a bit difficult, these craftsmen generally have a good income, or they belong to some powerful full-time craftsmen, so they won't easily agree," Kamiya Shao said with great embarrassment.
"It's really not possible, please provide the specific addresses of these people, and the family will personally send someone to invite them", if you don't want to come, you have to take the "kidnapping" method, "In addition, the family also needs to purchase 200 bows and a large number of arrows, and when purchasing armor, please also purchase them for the family." These supplies will also be compensated with the proceeds of snow salt." At present, there are 558 unallocated swords and 707 spears in the territory, so in the case of limited funds, swords and spears will not be considered for the time being, but although there are 150 bows and arrows as long-range weapons, they are all of different formats, and most of them have limited ranges. (The bow tire bow uses bamboo strips as the bow tire, which is similar to the production process of the composite bow, and is mainly based on three bow tires and five bow tires.) It is 120-170 cm long and weighs 0.2kg-0.3.kg. This type of bow is lighter to start with, and has more toughness than heavy rattan bows, with a range of about 200 to 400 meters. )
"The matter of bows and arrows is easy to do, Hakata happens to have several people who are good at making bows and arrows, and your Highness's bows and arrows will be enough next month, and then they will be sent to Your Highness's territory by means of scattered transportation", Shenya Shaoce immediately replied, "It's just that Your Highness, you need to purchase these materials in such a short period of time, even if you add the income from snow salt, you may not have enough funds?" "Although it is a cooperation, according to the needs of the Luo family, it will take another two or three months to prepare these materials, unless the Shenwu family lends a part of the funds, otherwise it is impossible to purchase it by relying only on the 3,000 yuan paid by the Luo family now and the snow salt income and expenditure in the next few months, but the Shenwu family will not rashly lend the funds.
"Hehe, there's another thing here", Masashi had long expected the other party to say this, and immediately gave a look to Kizo Shigetada, who was beside him. The latter hurriedly took out a small wooden box again and put it in front of Kamiya Shaoce. …,
"This is the family's family treasure, and now I plan to sell it, and if I can, I'll entrust the Kamiya family to sell it on my behalf. This family treasure is quite valuable, please keep it properly, otherwise it will definitely attract the wrath of the gods," Masarashi continued, pointing to the wooden box.
"Jiabao?" After seeing the other party take out a wooden box again, Shenwu Shaoce's first thought was that the other party had something to sell with him, but he didn't expect that the other party was going to sell the family treasure. After listening to Masayo's introduction, he carefully opened the wooden box.
"What is this?" , What caught the eye of Kamiya Shaoze was a drawing on a transparent piece of paper, which was exactly the packaging on the bread brought by Masahiro, a total of five sheets. Such a substance is unique in this era, so Masahiro simply sells it as a family treasure. After seeing this peculiar painting, Kamiya Shaoce couldn't help but admire it.
"The head of the family is the messenger of the Great Bodhisattva of Hachiman, and this is a sacred object that has been blessed by the Great Bodhisattva of Hachiman," said Shigetada Kizo on the side.
"Huh? It's really rude", Kamiya Suseze was taken aback by Kizo Shigetada's words, and immediately respectfully put the picture back into the wooden box, then looked at Masahiro and said earnestly, "I don't know how His Highness Lu Dao plans to sell this family treasure, if you can, this family is willing to buy it directly." Such a treasure could not only be kept at home, but also used as a gift for friendship with the daimyo and even the shogunate, so Kamiya Sakure couldn't wait to buy it directly.
"Hehe, is Kamiya-sama also interested in the family's family treasure? If it weren't for the lack of funds in the family, they wouldn't have sold this family treasure, so the family hopes that the higher the price, the better," Masara said with a pretended pain.
"How about 400 guan?" , Kamiya Shaoce said immediately.
"Huh? This? Zhengliang did not immediately express his position, but pretended to groan. In fact, Masahiro doesn't know what the value of this picture should be, but the safest thing to do is not to express his position for the time being.
"500 kan, plus 100 arrows", seeing Masahiro's brows furrowed, Shenya Shaoce gritted his teeth and said again.
500 guan? It should be almost, the Yoshigang Yiwen in the territory at that time was ready to buy it at a price of 400 yuan, and now 100 arrows are added, according to the calculation of 20 arrows per barrel, there are also 2000 arrows, so it saves some of the expenses.
"Okay, I hope you and I can work together happily," Masahiro agreed.
"Ha Luha, Your Highness is really refreshing, I admire it, and I will immediately discuss the details of cooperation with you when I am inferior", seeing that Masato finally agreed to sell, Kamiya Saize seemed very happy. This time, he just came with the attitude of taking a look, but he didn't expect to meet a big customer.
The current Kamiya family is mainly engaged in running a sake house, occasionally selling some other materials, and even doing some Korean trade, the Kamiya family really made a fortune, that is after the Kamiya Zong Zhan took charge, it can be said that the emergence of the Luo family prompted the Kamiya family to speed up the speed of becoming a wealthy businessman.
