The sun rises in the east, and the two families of Spo Kamiki and others meet in Kyoto Castle Town.

Maeda's interests, Akechi Mitsuhide, Niko Katsuhisa, and other Spo retainers all came to see them off.

Kamiizumi Nobutsuna took three disciples and had been waiting for a long time to accompany Kanto.

Yoshiyin sent an envoy on behalf of the shogunate, and the shogunate also had people to send it, led by Mibuchi Haruhin, Ninagawa himself, and Wada Yumasa.

Mibuchi Haru was also helpless, Hosokawa Fujitaka didn't know what was stimulated, something was wrong in the past few days, and he refused to come over today.

As the governor of the Mibuchi family of Hosokawa Mibuchi, she had no choice but to come on behalf of her allies to show the unity and harmony of the local powerful faction.

Ninagawa is now a representative of the shogunate faction, and the Ise family has completely broken their backbone because of Ashikaga Yoshiteru's statement in the review.

This time is different from the past, the general's attitude is very tough, and he no longer has scruples about the Hojo family behind the Ise family, and everyone is not optimistic about her family.

Although Ninagawa's relatives dominate the government and have great power, they are just as uneasy in their hearts.

The general can take the Ise family this time, what if it is the Ninagawa family next time?

Once the Ashikaga family began to gather power, and tasted the sweetness.

Even if the shogunates, who were retainers of the Ashikaga family, were perfect, sooner or later they would be excused and punished one by one.

Everyone understands the truth of cold lips and teeth, although she is on the side of the general, her heart is cold, and there is no joy of victory.

Compared with Ninagawa's own life, Wada Yumasa's life is more difficult.

This elegant shogunate envoy had frosty temples compared to a year ago, and there were many wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

As a retainer whose territory is in the Rokkaku family, the rapid deterioration of relations between the two sides makes her very uncomfortable.

When Rokkaku was the governor of the Rokkaku family, she and Ashikaga Yoshiteru were black hat relatives and were the strongest supporters of the shogunate in recent times.

Wada Yumasa, who had the dual identities of a shogunate and a hexagonal retainer, was reused, and he was a foreign party to the shogunate.

Who knew that it had only been a year since the death of Hexagonal Dinglai, and the relationship between the two sides had returned to the past, or even worse.

Hetian Weizheng is not a person inside and out, and he is much older.

At present, the best shogunate in the shogunate is Mibuchi Haruhin, and one of his two daughters is in charge of the Izumi Hosokawa family, and the other is the guardian of Kitakawachi.

The general relied on the alliance of the three local powerful factions of the Spo Hosokawa Mibuchi, and the status of the Mibuchi Harushi also rose with the tide, and he raised his eyebrows.

It's just that Hosokawa Mototsu stepped down, and this good old man owes a lot of money, and he always feels sorry for his sister.

I met Hosokawa Fujitaka again, and I was in a bad mood.

The three leading courtiers were all in a low mood, and the scene was naturally very cold.

Yiyin looked at the palace from afar and asked Mibuchi Qingyuan.

"Uncle, does the general still have orders?"

Sanyuan Qingyuan Shanshan Road.

"Lord Gongfang asked me to bring you a message, saying that when you come back, I will start another game."

Yiyin smiled slightly, this dead tsundere, you can do it.

Seeing that Mibuchi Qingren looked embarrassed, it was not good to embarrass this close elder again.

Hosokawa Fujitaka didn't come either, for fear that it was related to her ruthless refusal and hurt her heart. I hope she comes out sooner and will be friends in the future.

It was not early, and after a few more words, the group got on the horse and left Beijing.

Yiyin glanced back and rode away.

———

Imperial Palace, Sword Room.

Ashikaga Yoshiki waved his sword more than once, his heart was quiet, and Yoshigin's words replayed in his mind.

Do you like my 200,000 stone territory, this skin, or am you me?

She snorted coldly, swung a knife hard, and then put the knife back into its sheath, looking at Yukino Takada, who was practicing together.

"Why don't you send it to your master?"

"The Lord has commanded me to protect the general."

"Cut, I still need your protection."

Ashikaga Yoshiki said disdainfully, but the corners of his mouth hooked a smile, and his heart warmed.

Spo Yoshigin, I'll pack up the shogunate and wait for you to come back, and then settle accounts with you.

Troublesome man, I will make you marry me willingly.

———

Sakai Port, the station of the Spo Shinsengumi.

In the chamber, Yono Takada sat in the main seat, and the left and right of the head were Yui Hihama and Munehisa Imai.

She frowned, looked at the letter in front of her, and said.

"The Lord has ordered us to open up the trade routes to Hokuriku Province in the near future, and reach Echigo.

What do you think? ”

Yui Yuira said.

"Do as Your Highness tells you to do."

She is the head of the Shinsengumi and the military head of the Spo family in Sakai Port.

The Shinsengumi are small in number, but they are the only military presence of the Spo family in the western few nears, and their status is transcendent.

The Hihama family has received this fat shortage, and has become a faction of its own independent of the Iga people, and is grateful to the lord and works loyally.

And Imai Munehisa on the side was hesitant.

"Negotiations with the merchants of Sakai Port are still ongoing, and the original plan was to occupy a few of them first, and then gradually expand the Tokaido, Higashiyamado, and Hokuriku provinces.

If the Hokuriku Province is opened up alone, not only will the income be damaged, but also some businesses are afraid that they will take the opportunity to blackmail. ”

She was right.

If you want to lay a trade route to transport materials, the power of the Imai family alone is far from enough, and you must contact other businesses and use their foothold and connections.

The trade routes are not linear, but rather web-like.

The denser the network, the higher the benefits and the more tentacles will reach.

If the Hokuriku Province is opened up alone, not only will a lot of commercial benefits be lost.

It will also give the merchants who operate the first line of Hokuriku Province the opportunity to sit on the ground and raise the price, and ask for more benefits, and the loss will be great.

Yang Nai didn't answer her words and asked.

"How's it going with the dealers who buy and sell munitions?"

"There are not many merchants involved in grain and grass, iron cannons, bows and arrows, knives and guns, carcass, war horses and other armaments.

Most of those who dare to participate in these materials have some means, and there are also businessmen involved in Hakata, and it is difficult to coerce them to accept my family's shares.

Nowadays, only 30% of the shares can be shared, but all trading varieties are involved, which is convenient for monitoring the trend of trading and selling objects. ”

Yono nodded, satisfied with Imai Munehisa's efforts.

She was able to participate in the arms trade of Sakai Port Sansei, which was already stimulated by the samurai status granted by Spo Yoshigin, and she used all her strength.

Although it cost a lot, Imai Munehisa felt that it was worth it, and the Sakai Port merchants were also full of jealousy about Imai House becoming the Imai family.

Although there is only one word difference between the identities of merchants and samurai, there is a world of difference.

Merchants can earn thousands of family fortunes, but they are just domestic animals raised by the samurai society, and they are bled and cut when the owner needs it.

Even if the family business of the martial arts family is ruined, and there is only one person left with a knife, as long as it can still be rewarded by the public, there is a chance to bottom out.

Now that the world is gradually chaotic, the Sibo family will grant a merchant Ji samurai status, which also makes the merchants red-eyed.

Martial nobles and businessmen are cheap, who doesn't want to have such an opportunity to change the class, it's just that those martial artists look down on businessmen and don't give it.

In private, it was not that no one asked about the price, and he was willing to sacrifice most of his body to seek the status of a martial artist, but he was sternly refuted by Takada Yonai.

Superiority and humility are the order of the samurai.

In order to support himself and grant Imai Sohisa the status of a martial artist, how much pressure will he bear, Yang Nai understands in his heart and is grateful.

But you can't do it all.

A special case is a special case, and once a routine is formed, it will be a devastating blow to the prestige of the Spo family.

The Sibo family is a high-ranking nobleman, and the family lineage has its own halo, shining on everyone. It is impossible to sell for a small profit.

Perhaps in the future, there will be people from humble backgrounds who mingle with businessmen and use their strength to achieve great things.

But offending the deep-seated dignity of the samurai will make her pay the price, and the fate of the descendants will be sad, and the fortune of the family will not last.
