Chapter 174: Undercurrent (2)
A sturdy goshawk landed on the treetops, tilting its head to take in all the events that had taken in the situation. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Under the treetops, Sasa Narumasa was talking to several Saito samurai who had come forward before, and after seeing the goshawk above his head, he said with some envy: "It's a pity that it's inconvenient today, otherwise you must tame such an eagle." ”
Several samurai of the Saito clan complimented them with smiling faces, and some of them had already made up their minds to find a suitable falcon to give to the Oda family's nouveau riche as a gift.
After counting the five peaks, Sasa Naruma took his men to escort them away. The Saito samurai here cleaned up the scene to make sure that no clues were left, and then left with the gold that had been used for trading.
The goshawk in the treetops looked at the corpses all over the ground again, spread its wings and flew into the distance, and after a while, the goshawk quickly fell, standing accurately on Yang Guang's shoulder, who patted the goshawk's wings and said to himself: "It's easy to communicate with a smart person, you don't need to say anything, he knows what to do." ”
In fact, this is the response that Yang Guang deliberately left for Oda Nobunaga, with Oda Nobunaga's financial resources alone, it is impossible to completely take over from Yang Guang, and Yang Guang does not want to become a mobile vendor, so he naturally has to take care of Oda Nobunaga's mood as a big customer and landlord.
Although Ikeda Hengxing was supervising whether Yang Guang had broken his promise, it was easy for him to have the information of the merchants who bought the Wufeng Gun in his hands, and Oda Nobunaga could look for an opportunity to participate in such a "black eats black" show.
As for those samurai of the Saito family, Yang Guang estimated that Oda Nobunaga had secretly bought them, and he was not interested in this matter at all, so he called back to summon the goshawk and did not continue to follow.
Seeing that the goal was achieved, Yang Guang cast a "flying technique" so that he could not have to work so his own, and then cast an "invisibility technique" to save himself from flying in the sky and being seen by others too shocking.
In the process of turning, Yang Guang has been thinking about the follow-up development of this matter, don't look at those Saito family samurai who covered up the scene very well, but it is impossible to hide the robbed Wufeng Gun without using it. Now there are so many spies in the Daimyo over there in Long Island Port, and everyone knows who bought how many Wufeng guns, as long as you look at which Daimyo suddenly has an extra batch of equipment, it will be clear who did the thing today.
Oda Nobunaga can certainly quickly arm himself by "eating black by black", but such an approach will inevitably worsen his relationship with the daimyo around him, which will further tense the situation in the region.
When the strength of the Oda family is greatly improved, the other daimyo will also strengthen as much force as possible in order to protect themselves, and sooner or later it will evolve into the situation that Yang Guang hopes for the most.
"Hey, hey!" Yang Guang, who was flying in the sky, couldn't help but say excitedly: "Back then, the Western powers were crazy about the arms race, if you build one ship, I will build two, and in the end, I won't be able to fight, it depends on which of you village chiefs will go off first!" ”
Because Yang Guang usually stays in the room and doesn't go out, and even specially asks that no one else is needed to bring him food, Yang Guang occasionally secretly left for two days, but no one found out.
After staying in Nagashima Port for a few days, news came from Mino's side, and Saito Yoshiryu learned that the Goho Gun he had bought from the Rokkaku family at a high cost had been robbed, and he actually called Inaba Ichchitetsu on the spot and scolded him in front of many people.
Yang Guang, who heard the news, couldn't help but sigh, no wonder this guy's father would rather give the foundation to his son-in-law than to his son, just with this reckless character and too much advocating force, if he wins a hundred battles forever, as long as he loses the last game, he will lose his prestige and betray his relatives.
If it was really Inaba Itchitetsu's mastermind, how could it be that it couldn't be covered up and exposed when it happened in the other party's territory? So it is likely that someone planted the blame. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if there is conclusive evidence, the safest way is to smile and appease, show your trust, and win people's hearts. It's not too late to wait until you get through the current difficulties and settle the score.
Things turned out to be the same as Yang Guang imagined, Inaba Ichitetsu soon after returning to the house said that he was sick and closed his door, Yang Guang knew that Saito Yoshiryu's time was running out, and it was up to Oda Nobunaga to successfully plot against his important ministers.
"1,000?" Yang Guang raised his head and looked at the man opposite, and repeated, "Are you sure you want 1,000 Wufeng guns?" ”
"Yes." The man replied without humility or arrogance: "30 taels of gold, a total of 30,000 taels, right?" ”
"It seems that Your Excellency is familiar with me." Yang Guang said with a smile as his mind was like electricity, quickly analyzing the other party's intentions. With such a large amount at a time, it is most likely that this man is an agent of a certain big force, and of course it is not ruled out that he is ready to resell like the Hexagonal family. However, there is a third possibility, that is, this person is here to deliberately test his inventory.
Wufeng Gun can be mass-produced indefinitely in modern time and space, so Yang Guang is not afraid that someone will hoard Juqi, as for the other two possibilities, Yang Guang will not waste food due to choking, so he replied with a wave of his hand: "As long as you can afford to pay for gold, you can trade it immediately." ”
Seeing that Yang Guang agreed, the man nodded and beckoned to his companions, carried the gold from the boat leaning on the dock, and then transported 1,000 bundled Wufeng guns onto the ship, and soon set sail and left quickly.
The boat had been on the surface for two days, and when it came to a rudimentary wharf, the man stepped out of the boat and said to his companion who was waiting for him on the shore, "It went well." But I'm sure he must have had quite a bit of stock, for the storeroom where the iron cannons were stored was still double-guarded at the time of my departure. ”
If Yang Guang was here, he would definitely be able to recognize on the spot that the person waiting on the shore was Lai Lian Shimoma, who had bought some Wufeng guns at a high price. Shimoma Lai Lian pondered for a moment and replied: "The Dharma Master attaches great importance to this kind of Ming Kingdom iron cannon, and feels that it should be the best help for us to establish a land Buddha country, even if a believer who has never been in contact with it can learn to shoot and reload in just a few days. ”
"But the Ming people are too greedy, 30 taels of gold is too expensive, how much will it cost to arm all the millions of believers?" Shimoma continued: "So I have to take a salary from the bottom of the kettle. In a few days I will arrange for the others to go again, and we must buy up their stocks as soon as possible, and when these Ming men go to sea with the gold, we can block them and capture them alive, and their ships have no artillery!
