Volume 2: A Laugh in the Sea Chapter 192: Night Exploration of Junfu City (I)
Su Ziling turned her head, tilted her head slightly, and read to the signboard: "Kikyo House? Strange, this name seems to have been heard somewhere. But he didn't think so, and took the lead in pulling up the curtain and entering the store. Chen Sheng and Pu Guanshui also followed, but they saw a middle-aged businessman who was short and fat and quite rich rubbed his hands to greet him, and said with a smile: "Welcome, welcome." Welcome to Kikyo House. The villain is the owner of our shop, Kikyo Yaribei. Three uncles, do you want to buy clothes? Whether it is men's or women's clothing, the elderly and children, new clothes and old clothes, from the finest silk of the Ming Kingdom to ordinary linen, all kinds of styles and textures are unified. Welcome to shop. If the three uncles can't find satisfactory clothes for a while, the shop also provides tailor-made services, which will definitely satisfy you. ”
"Kikyo Yaribei? Ouch, I remembered. Pu Guanshui patted his head and exclaimed, "I remember that when the three shoguns of the shogunate, Yoshimitsu, there was also a shop in Kyoto called Kikyo House, and the owner was also called Kikyo House Ribei." ”
Chen Sheng also remembered. He smiled, "Yes, yes, I remember it too." The owner of the bellflower house is also an old acquaintance with Master Ikkyu of Ankokuji Temple, and he often comes and goes. ”
The short and fat middle-aged man smiled and said, "The two of you are really well-informed, and they actually know about the things of the trumpet ancestor." Hehe, the two of you are right. Kikyo Yaribei, this is the name that has been passed down from generation to generation in the small shop. At that time, Kyoto Kikyo House and Master Ikkyu handed over haode, who was the ancestor of the villain.
Alas, it is a pity that since the Onin War, Kyoto has become a hell on earth, and the business of Kikyo House has become more and more difficult to do. When it comes to the villain's generation, it really can't stay. It just so happened that Yoshimoto vigorously developed the Junfu and invited many nobles from Kyoto.
Now that the ministers and adults are here, the villains have all together, so they simply move the shop over. Not to mention, after moving, the business is really much better, and finally the name of Kikyo House will not be ruined in the hands of villains. Hehe, this is all thanks to the blessing of Yiyuangong. ”
The three members of the Sword Shadow Demon Trail team claimed in unison: "I see. Pu Guanshui said: "Since it is a century-old brand, the quality must be guaranteed." We're too lazy to pick. Boss, give a few of us a few clothes each. It is necessary to wear clothes that can go to meet the big people in the city, and there are also people who usually wear clothes to hurry. You don't care about the price. He threw out a gold coin.
During the Warring States Period, the daimyo who divided the territories would mint money on their own as long as they had the conditions. Therefore, the currency circulating in the market, except for the Yongle Tongbao imported from the Ming Dynasty, other forms of self-minted soil money, unified as bad money, the value is very low.
This is true of copper coins, as well as the more valuable gold and silver. The territories of Suruga, Sagami, and Kai all have gold mountains on them. The three families of Imagawa, Hojo, and Takeda also minted gold separately. The shape and purity are completely different. The most famous of them is Takeda Chess Piece Gold. It is known for the shape and size of the gold nugget, which is equal to the chess pieces of Go.
The gold coin thrown by Pu Guanshui was minted by dwarven craftsmen on Rhode Island. Although its style looks to people in this era, it seems very eccentric. But as a shop owner, I have seen a lot of strange currencies, and I don't think it's strange. The most important thing is that it was Kikyo Yari Guard who took the gold coin and flicked it with his hand, and he already knew that it was extremely pure and very valuable.
At that moment, Kikyo Yari Bingwei jīng shook his head and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, all of them." The three uncles are satisfied. Sataro, Anji, Hikoma, and Sadayoshi, quickly take out all the most haode clothes in our store. In the midst of the shouting, I saw several shop guys walking out with a large pile of clothes on wooden plates, smiling to serve these generous customers. Chen Sheng stretched out his hand in front of Su Ziling and said, "Boss, this is my sister, because the road is not very convenient, so I changed it to men's clothing." Do you have a female clerk here? ”
Kikyo Yari Bei was stunned again, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be a girl?" OK, OK. Yayoi, Yayoi, come out to help entertain guests. Then he looked back and explained, "Yayoi is the daughter of the villain, so let her help this girl change her clothes and keep the service in place." As soon as the words fell, a little girl with bright eyes and bright teeth, about thirteen or four years old, walked out and took Su Ziling into the dressing room inside with a smile to pick out clothes.
After a moment's effort, Chen Sheng and Pu Guanshui were dressed up from head to toe. When you tie up your hair, you look like two heroic young samurai, and you can't see much trace of modern society. The two looked at each other and were satisfied. Chen Sheng shook his head again and said, "It's a pity that there are still two knives missing." Hey, boss, is there any shop in this town where you can sell weapons? ”
Kikyo Yari nodded again and again, "Yes, yes." It's this street, the largest store on the west side, Tonoya, that sells everything. Weapons, art, tea, books...... Everything you need. But...... Two masters, if you want to buy weapons now, maybe the price will be much higher than usual. ”
Chen Sheng turned his head and Pu Guanshui glanced at each other, and asked quietly, "Oh, the price of weapons is going to rise?" weishenme? By the way, we saw a lot of samurai on the road just now, and looking at them, they don't seem to be from the Imagawa family? ”
Kikyo Yari was a little strange and said, "Because there's going to be a war." Last month, the order had been handed down by the Duke of Yi Yuan. Gather the troops of the wealthy families from all over the country to gather in Sunfu, and announce that they will send troops to Kamiraku to assist the shogun in Kyoto to revitalize the shogunate. After the news spread, many wandering samurai from Tokaido and Kanyachi came from far and wide to enlist in order to get ahead. Why, didn't the two uncles come to Junfu for this? ”
In that year, Rì Ben attempted to invade the Korean Peninsula, but was beaten severely by the Tang Dynasty, the suzerainty of North Korea, at the mouth of the Baijiang River. After the defeat of the war, the whole people then stirred up a trend of learning from the Tang Dynasty, and sent a large number of Tang envoys to study in China, and moved many things from the Tang Dynasty, including laws, architectural styles, clothing, systems, etc., back to the Tang Dynasty. Among them, Heianjing, the capital of Rìben, completely copied Luoyang, the capital of the Tang Dynasty (of course, the scale was much smaller). Therefore, Heiankyo is also called Los Angeles. Kamiraku means to lead troops to Kyoto.
During the Warring States period, there were many warlords in various places. Divide one side of each other. If someone wants to go to Luo, of course, they must pass through someone else's territory. But how could others let you lead a large army into your own territory? Therefore, if you want to go to Luo, you have to fight all the way through until you have conquered all the unconvinced. Take Imagawa Yoshimoto, for example. To get to Raku, he had to pass through several places along the way, such as Owari of the Oda family, Mino of the Saito family, and Omi of the Rokkaku family. Among them, the Oda family belongs to the Imagawa family. So this battle, it must be fought.
Pu Guanshui snorted and said, "We? We're certainly not here for that. Don't hide it from the boss, the purpose of our coming out this time is just to enjoy the mountains and rivers, see the customs and customs of various places, and broaden our horizons. It's such a dangerous thing to fight, just leave it to others, haha~"
While speaking, Su Ziling also changed her clothes and came out. It's still men's clothes, but between her arms, she's holding a lot of gorgeous women's clothes. Looking at her dazzling smile, she was obviously very satisfied with it. At that moment, the three of them and Kikyo Yari Beibei said goodbye and went out in their new clothes.
Walk to a remote alley and throw the old clothes you have changed into and the new clothes you bought for spare in your private storage space. Immediately, he walked out of the street with empty hands, and found Tomonoya in the direction pointed out by the owner of the Kikyo House.
The owner of this Tomonoya, Tomono Jiro Guard, was not only the royal merchant of the Imagawa family, but also the head of all the merchants in Sunfu, so the storefront was at least five times more than that of Kikyoya. The guys inside are even more ignorant of each other, and when they see customers coming to the door, they often only care about chatting with each other, and don't come forward to entertain them. Fortunately, Chen Sheng and the others didn't bother to bother with these guys, so they went straight to the weapon rack to choose.
Although the guy in the store has a bad attitude, the quality of the goods is quite good. There are all kinds of long and short weapons on the weapon rack. And they are all labeled indicating the place of origin and the name of the craftsman. However, Chen Sheng and Pu Guanshui both have their own weapons, and Su Ziling is also preparing a large number of modern arms, so they bought this, in the final analysis, just to pretend and hide people's eyes. Therefore, the three of them did not choose very carefully, and each bought an ordinary long knife and an ordinary short knife. The two weapons were worn together around the waist, which was the most common decoration for samurai and had a practical xìng decoration.
said that these weapons were ordinary, but in essence, it was only because Chen Sheng and Pu Guanshui had a relationship between bright gold and even dark gold-level weapons, so they didn't look down on these goods that were sold in ordinary weapons shops, at most they only had white sè high-grade goods. But in the eyes of the ordinary samurai of this Shijie, the weapons in this Tomono House are simply rare jīng products.
For example, the long knife is called Bichu Kikuichi Monomun, and the short knife is called Omi Kunitomo Wakisa, and its status is equivalent to that of famous brands such as Hermès, Chanel, and LV in later generations. Therefore, the price is definitely not cheap. Kikuichi Script Noritsu is priced at 54 pieces of 300 pieces (1,000 copper coins are called consistent), and Omi Kunichi Wakicha also costs 9 pieces of 100 letters. Six weapons, a total of almost 200 pieces.
How many are 200 guan? As we all know, Oda Nobunaga, the lord of Owari country, has a famous general under his command called Maeda Toshiie. The family of the Maeda Toshiya family has owned a small castle called Arako Castle for generations. This deserted city, together with several surrounding villages, is worth a total of 2,000 yuan. In other words, by selling a few more knives, Tomonoya could easily earn the equivalent of the entire fortune of a samurai family. After thinking about it, I can't help but teach people to talk about it.
