In the feudal era, the status of merchants was extremely low, and in the final analysis, it was to disturb social stability.

In the eyes of the rulers, the samurai fought, the peasants cultivated, the craftsmen made, and even religion had the effect of numbing the untouchables and easing the contradictions.

What is the use of a merchant?

Except for a few necessities such as salt and iron cloth, for the feudal lords, the immutable stability was more conducive to rule than the circulation of people and materials.

Businessmen are bastards who buy low and sell high, disrupting social stability for their own selfish interests.

All the peasants were working hard, and suddenly a few merchants came.

Said that the village next door is suitable for farming, and there is not much grain for farming in the ravines and valleys here, so it is better to plant hemp, we are responsible for circulation, and we will make a difference.

It seems that the two villages exchanged materials and took advantage of them, but in a disaster year, the food in the next village is not enough to eat by themselves, what should I do?

More than half of the farmers in the village where hemp was planted starved to death, and more than half of the land was exchanged for grain by the merchants.

There is no grain and instability, and the ability to resist risks in the agricultural era is extremely poor. If there is not enough food to eat, people will die until they have enough to eat.

People are hungry and lose their minds, and the riots they cause can be fatal to shake the foundations of rule.

If you indulge merchants, their greed can easily lead to chaos in the event of natural and man-made disasters.

So, businessmen must be suppressed.

Ancient history is a history of oppressed blood and tears for merchants, rulers are not good men and women, and swords are more powerful than money.

If it weren't for the troubled times of the samurai family, and the need to use merchants to raise military expenses, how could these rentier bastards deserve to enter the eyelids of the samurai.

Takada Yonoi was willing to make deals with merchants in Sakai Port and make agreements, which was out of consideration for the interests of the Spo family.

When she encounters the crisis of the unstable family business, she will tear off her face as soon as possible and eat them alive, not caring about the resentment of the businessman at all.

What does it have to do with you when I destroy you? How many divisions do you have. No, how many reserves?

In Sakai Port, Takada Yono's only scruples were about the Miyoshi family, but now it's different.

First, Si Bo Yi Yinyue was trapped, and the Si Po family allocated a lot of resources to support the family governor, which had already drained the family funds, and even affected the Omi war after spring ploughing.

This is a crisis that shakes the fundamentals, but there is an opportunity in the crisis, and it is also an excellent opportunity for her Gao Tian Yangnai to reflect her value and elevate herself.

As long as she can raise a large amount of supplies to help Spo's recent leaders survive this catastrophe, the forces in Spo's family will have to pay attention to her existence.

Only by proving their own strength and making contributions can they have the right to speak and be qualified to participate in the battle for participation.

She will be the sixth force recognized by the Shibo family, Maeda Interests, Shima Katsutake, Akechi Mitsuhide, and Yamanaka Niko's one-party Quartet after Maeda Toshiya.

In a situation where the samurai generally despise business, this opportunity is hard to come by.

Even if he destroyed a large number of big businessmen in Sakai Port and ruined her fair trade reputation, he would have to help the Spo family get through this.

This is to help the master tide over the difficulties, and it is also to prove his worth, and the pros and cons of it have long been clearly calculated.

If Tsuda Munechi doesn't open her mind, she will really kill people and sell goods.

Second, the situation in the west at this time is no longer what the Spo family was when they settled in Sakai Port.

At the beginning of the battle, Miyoshi Nagakei retreated with hatred, and out of various political considerations, allowed the Spo family forces to enter Sakai Port.

At that time, Miyoshi was strong, the shogunate was weak, and the Spo family was dancing on a tightrope.

The power of the Miyoshi family retreated, and it was a retracted fist, which could be fought again at any time.

And the Spo Shinsengumi is a human alarm in front of the shogunate, and once the Miyoshi family attacks the Shinsengumi, it is a harbinger of another war.

Therefore, for the sake of the overall situation, the Miyoshi family turned a blind eye to the team of the Spo family stationed in Sakai Port, so that there was room for the new selection group to operate.

But even so, Takada Yono didn't dare to go too far.

The Spo family had prestige but no strength, so they could only scare and scare the merchants through the Ikedaya incident, and with the acquiescence of the Miyoshi family, they barely gained a foothold in Sakai Port.

Today, the Bo family has successfully integrated the local powerful factions, Izumi, North Hanoi, North Harmony, and Iga are united and united.

In the shogunate, he was relied on by Ashikaga Yoshiteru, cleaned up the shogunates, reorganized the interior, and looked like a thriving upward posture.

On the other hand, after the death of Miyoshi Yoshiken, the remaining Miyoshi Sanren inherited her dissatisfaction with Miyoshi Yoshiji's heir.

The conflict between the two sides is becoming more and more intense, and even involves one of the three good four sisters, An Zhai Dongkang, and the three countries and four sisters system on which Sanhao Changqing relied is on the verge of collapse.

At this time, how could the Miyoshi family be willing to fight with the local powerful faction of the shogunate, and even the entire shogunate, for the trivial matter of a few merchants in Sakai Port.

Yono Takada's actions are not for himself, but for the leader of the local powerful faction, Yoshiyin Spo.

Even if it makes a big fuss, Ashikaga Yoshiki will support her.

As Yono Takada said, in the face of the political situation of the confrontation between the Miyoshi shogunate, Tsuda Mune and the so-called Sakai Port businessman are a p.

Imai Munehisa is a famous big businessman, a big tea man, and a human spirit.

However, the congenital deficiency of her business background makes her political sensitivity too far behind that of Takada Yonoi, so she will put the cart before the horse and misjudge the matter.

Iga Province, Koga Mouth.

There are four passages in the Iga Basin, and it is the Koga Mouth that corresponds to the Minami Omi.

The Suzuka Mountains are bordered by Minami-Omi to the north, Iga Province to the west, and Ise Province to the east, and this mountain area is the dividing line between Tokaido and.

Suzuka Pass, located in Ise Japan, is one of the three passes that separate Kanto Kansai in a broad sense.

Maeda's interests had already arrived near the Kaga Pass with a standing reserve near the Qiben, stationed in the ghost tumor bar, and only waited for the spring ploughing, and the whole army went to battle.

On this day, Yoshitsugu Otani received an urgent communication from Maeda's interests and came to the military council stationed there.

Wrapped in white cloth and standing with a banner, she walked quickly into Maeda's shogunate, only to find that all the villages under Yuno had arrived.

Otani Yoshitsugu frowned slightly, feeling that something was wrong, and all parts of the country were busy during the spring ploughing, and he was afraid that it would cause dissatisfaction.

She and Maeda's interests greeted each other, and they stopped talking.

Maeda shook his head and said.

"Half of the spring plowing in Yuye Village has passed, and the land leaving will not affect the cultivation, and everything that should be explained has been explained.

You take a look at this first. ”

Otani Ji Ji belly scolded, even if you don't have to arrange it, it's always right to look at your own fields, and it's unpopular for you to do this.

She took the paperwork, glanced at ten lines, and for a moment her face was solemn, something really happened, and asked.

"Shima-sama has already set off?"

Maeda nodded.

"Niko-sama had already set off when she sent the letter."

"How much of the munitions reserve is left for us?"

"There is no one out of ten."

Yoshitsugu Otani was silent, and she must not show the slightest dissatisfaction with this matter.

The lord is as kind to her as a mountain, and now there is an accident in Yuezhong, and he should be the liver and brain for the ministers, in order to repay the kindness of the encounter.

But the battle on Iga's side has to be fought, and without supplies, how can we fight?

More than half of the spring ploughing, not to mention what happened to Mino's side, Minami Omi in the north has already moved.

Most of Otani Yoshitsugu's subordinates were from the samurai family who couldn't survive under the Minami Omi Rokkaku family, and the news of the relatives over there continued.

The Hexagonal family has begun to levy military rations, raise materials, and mobilize the countrymen, causing the low-level martial artists to complain.

After years of war, the Hexagonal family was once beaten back to its original shape, and the benefits were not shared much, but the small warriors who were pressed by heavy taxes to the point of breaking their waists were already resentful.

Rokkaku Yixian also understands that the more unstable the bottom, the more he must use the proceeds of this Northern Expedition to fill the dissatisfaction of the lower classes, and the more active he is in preparing for war.

Iga is only 100,000 stones, and he is already weak, but now that there is a shortage of materials, it is even worse, how to fight?

Yoshitsugu Otani asked.

"What if the supplies are not in order, what will happen to the war?"

Maeda took a look at her and cut it out.

"Hit!"
