Because he had enough capital, when he bought Akane in Kyonocho this time, Long Tao bought the upper limit of the seat for private businessmen - one hundred and twenty catties, and spent more than 1,400 yuan.

Holding one hundred and twenty catties of dye powder in one hand, Long Tao walked out of the seat easily, even if he didn't deliberately use the void universe energy in his body, his strengthened physical body could easily burst out with a thousand catties of power, and this weight was naturally nothing to him.

But this scene made Ruyoshi and Sun Bingwei stunned.

"Lord Yi is really born with divine power!" Liuji praised.

Long Tao shook his head and smiled: "How can there be any innate divine power?" You remember, the hidden power of the human body is very great, and as long as you keep training, you will soon be able to do what I did. ”

Sun Bingwei knelt on the ground, knocked deeply, and shouted loudly: "Then please ask Lord Yi to train the little ones well!" No matter how hard it is, the little ones are willing to bear it! ”

Ruyoshi also knelt down and touched his head to the ground.

Long Tao was shocked in his heart, this nation seems to be born with a kind of worship enthusiasm for the strong and a yearning for strength.

In the past, they admired Chinese culture, and all valuable utensils, elegant utensils, etc., would be crowned with the words "Tang" and "Wu", and they still call their kimono "Wu Fu", because that style is almost exactly the same as the clothing of Wu during the Three Kingdoms.

Now, with the decline of Middle-earth and the arrival of the Western powers, the strong men of this national worship are slowly changing, which can be seen from the fact that they no longer recognize the Ming Kingdom as the Celestial Empire, although the things from the Ming Kingdom are still regarded as treasures, but they have slowly lost their reverence for the huge empire on the other side of the sea, otherwise, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who was born in poverty, would not have made the arrogant and ridiculous war decision of vainly trying to occupy Korea and then annex the Ming Kingdom in the future.

"You two get up, you serve faithfully, I will naturally make you strong, so that you can do things better for me!"

Long Tao divided the one hundred and twenty catties into two parts, let the two of them carry them, and hurried to Sakai Town.

In the seat of Sakai no Machi, Long Tao heard the good news that Sakai's tea is in short supply, and the price has risen to a record high of 40 guan a catty!

Long Tao hurriedly sold Akane, and hurriedly rushed back to Kyonomachi, where the wholesale price of tea was nineteen guan a catty.

After buying the upper limit of 120 catties of tea, the three of them returned to Sakai Town non-stop and sold the tea, and Long Tao's money became 10,600 yuan.

"Ten thousand? We've got 10,000? ”

"In the past few days, Lord Yi has become a rich man with a lot of money! It's—it's amazing! ”

Ruyoshi and Sun Bingwei were talking nonsense happily as if they were about to go crazy.

Long Tao just smiled and shook his head, he knew that this ten thousand guan would soon shrink by half.

"Ashikaga-sama, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon." In the main store of Naya, Imai Munehisa and Long Tao sat opposite each other with a smile.

"I'm here this time to buy something from the big boss."

"Well said." Imai Munehisa pulled out a note from his sleeve, "I heard about Ashikaga-sama's intentions, so I made a list of things that can be sold to you, please take a look." ”

Long Tao took the note and looked at it, there were a lot of props on it, and the most valuable ones were indeed things that did not exceed level four.

"I want this." Long Tao pointed to the top of the note.

Imai Sohisa leaned over and said with a smile: "This national friend tube is a very good kind of iron cannon made in Japan, this thing is fifty-five runs, I don't know how many Ashikaga adults want?" ”

"Twenty."

"What? Twenty sticks! Imai Sojiu's eyes flashed, staring at Long Tao, twenty Guoyou tubes are more than a thousand at a normal price, obviously he didn't expect Long Tao to be such a big deal as soon as he made a move.

Long Tao has his own plans, this national friend tube belongs to the fourth level of value weapons, one can be used to equip their own people, and the other is for some people who don't like the tea ceremony and are good at weapons, you can give them to establish friendship.

"Is it possible to get a discount? Top banana. ”

"Absolutely." Imai Munehisa's face returned to normal, "Let's bargain." ”

After a short time in the secret room, the two of them appeared again, and finally Long Tao won twenty national friends with nine hundred and two.

"Can the big boss show me more expensive and key things?" Long Tao pushed the note aside and stared at Imai Munehisa and asked.

"Yes." Imai Munehisa closed his eyes and pondered for a while, then clapped his hands.

A little guy walked over with a wooden sign carrying a tea bottle with a black body and a yellow lid, the tea bottle was simple and exquisite, and the whole body gave off a faint luster.

Imai Munehisa introduced: "The tea bottle Shaoou eggplant, which is made by the famous tea man Takeno Shaoou, is one of the four eggplants in the world, and I price it for adults to be 358 and 200 yuan." ”

"Okay, I want it."

After some bargaining, Long Tao finally won it with 293 and 700 yuan.

"Anything else?" Long Tao asked again.

Imai Munehisa clapped his hands again, and the little servant returned to the inner room and came back with a long knife in both hands.

"Xiaolong Jingguang, the legend is that it is a saber used by the famous general Nanmu Zhengcheng, priced at one thousand and forty-five times!"

Long Tao saw that there was a relief of a coiled dragon on the scabbard, and Sen Sen's cold air seemed to want to come out of the sheath, it should be a good knife, but unfortunately he already had the village rain on his body.

"Can you see anything better?" Long Tao asked, he remembered that Shaoou Eggplant was a fifth-level treasure, while Xiaolong Jingguang was a sixth-level sword.

Imai Munehisa closed his eyes and pondered for a while, then shook his head slightly and said, "Ashikaga-sama wants to see a seventh-level treasure, and it's still a little bit close. ”

"Okay." Long Tao pulled the list back in front of him, pointed to the "turtle armor joiner" on it and said, "This thing, bring me ten sets." ”

This turtle armor is a fourth-level treasure, which is a hairpin or comb made of tortoiseshell turtle shells, and sells for 33 yuan and 300 yuan.

After spending more than 270 yuan on ten sets of turtle armor craftsmen, Imai Munehisa finally took out three treasures worth the seventh level: the Chidori incense burner, the pot of Matsushima, and the Kojiki.

After some bargaining, after taking all the three seventh-level treasures, Long Tao's 10,000 guan was spent a small half, and there were more than 5,800 guan left.

"I didn't expect Ashikaga-sama to be a big high roller!" With more than 4,000 accounts at once, Imai Munehisa was obviously very happy, and said with a smile: "If Ashikaga-sama has anything to do in the future, you can come and find it!" ”

After spending so much money, sure enough, the intimacy between the two has also risen sharply.

"I have something to ask the big boss for." Long Tao leaned over slightly.

"Oh, what's the matter? Ashikaga-sama, but it doesn't hurt to say it! ”

"I want to follow the big boss and learn the way of doing business."

"What?" Imai Munehisa was taken aback, "Ashikaga-sama means to join me Naya and become a businessman?" ”

You know, although the merchant is rich, but the status is not high, can not compete with the samurai class who control force and power, although the Ashikaga Yoshishi is only a ronin at the moment, but after all, there is Furukawa Gongfang in his identity, a person who is qualified to be a general is going to be a businessman, anyone who hears it will be shocked.

"That's right, please take care of the big boss!" Long Tao nodded and said sincerely.

Imai Munehisa stared at him deeply, and after a long time, he sighed: "Okay, since you have this determination, I will give you a chance, but if you join Naya, you have to start from scratch, and you have to start with the most basic apprenticeship, are you willing?" ”

"Yes!" Long Tao replied.

He didn't care what position he had, anyway, this merchant was only temporary, his purpose was only to obtain the status of a merchant, and he would no longer be subject to the restrictions on private traders in the seat, and then he could sell expensive luxury goods in large quantities and make enough money in a short time.
