It is close to Osaka.

The first stop of Baiyu was not the Nan family, but the Sakata family.

Speaking of the Sakata family, not many people may remember it anymore.

This is one of the local Chinese families in Osaka, who united the other four wealthy families before, and tried to join forces to destroy the Nan family under the secret plan of the Nan family, and later saw the white elm with his own eyes, he decisively surrendered and formed a substantial interest and camp alliance with the Nan family.

Bai Yu did not lay many piles in Yingzhou, and it was full of three places, including Nanjia, Bantian and Baifeng Group.

The last time we met was ten years ago, and after ten years, it is clear that the development of the Sakata family is far better than that of the Hakumine group.

If the Shiramine Group hadn't been attacked by the Inazakai Society, its own assets and foundation would probably be about half of the Sakata family.

But the underworld organization and the Chinese are not comparable, the latter is expanding too fast, and Sakata and the Nan family jointly divided the territory and interests of the four Chinese families, and after ten years, they can also firmly hold the industries and territories in their own hands.

The Sakata family can be said to have lived quite nourishingly in the past ten years, not only through a lot of relationships, but also the status of the family has been rising, especially in the related aspects of business, and the status of the local Chinese in Osaka is also rising, and it is completely prosperous.

The head of the Sakata family has been replaced by Sakata Liang, who took the initiative to take refuge in Baiyu, and he doesn't look much different from ten years ago, although there is a lot more silver hair, but his mental outlook is obviously much better.

In front of the whole family, when he saw Bai Yu, he bowed directly in person, and he almost didn't have a big gift of kneeling on both knees.

The two sides haven't seen each other for ten years, and it's not surprising that the other party has any strange thoughts; And Sakata Liang's attitude is clearly for others to see, and it is a warning to everyone in the Sakata family.

Sure enough, seeing Sakata Ryo as the head of the family but putting on such a respectful attitude towards a young man, the clansmen of the Sakata family were dumbfounded, and after reacting, they also followed the big salute again and again.

After Sakata Liang inherited the position of head of the family strongly, he adopted a rather harsh family law, loose on the outside and tight on the inside.

He himself is an extremely cautious and step-by-step character, and he can make decisive judgments, which proves that this person's city government and heart are not bad.

Bai Yu didn't believe that Sakata Liang was a little grateful to him, but he would never dare to let him directly sit on an equal footing with him.

On the one hand, Amamiya Masahiro and Nan Shiori are in charge of staring at him for ten years, and on the other hand, Bai Yu has only been free for the past ten years, and it has been proved that he really doesn't look down on this one-third of an acre.

Sakata's conscience knows this, and he is not worried that Bai Yu will affect his status in the Sakata family, even so, he has ten thousand reasons to give Bai Yu enough face and respect, even to the point of self-humiliation...... Who can bring benefits to themselves and their families, even if they recognize each other as their father-in-law?

After meeting at the door of the house, Sakata Liang stood up, took the initiative to lead the way, and took Bai Yu to the main hall, and then waved his hand to drive everyone out.

"I haven't seen you for ten years, but you still haven't changed at all." Sakata Liang touched his sideburns: "But I already have Huafa." ”

Bai Yu said calmly: "I just arrived in Yingzhou, I haven't seen you for ten years, but the situation has changed a lot. ”

Sakata Liang smiled bitterly: "Regarding the matter of the Baifeng Group, I also just got the news, I didn't expect that Inahaya would really pick the time to do it, and even the industry under my command has been affected somewhat, after all, it is close to the Edo area, and it is not within the scope of the Sakata family." ”

"I've settled this matter." Bai Yu wrote lightly: "The Bai Feng Group will transform into other businesses in the future, and the Dao Morning Association will spit back what it eats, you just go find someone to receive it another day." ”

Sakata's conscience jumped suddenly, of course he knew that behind this was not only the Inazawa, but even the shogunate.

But Bai Yu said in a few words that he had already dealt with the problem, which was really unbelievable.

The attack of the Bai Feng group happened a day ago, and it was solved in just one day?

Sakata Ryo asked dryly, "You can't really get rid of the rice morning meeting, right?" ”

"Am I that like a butcher?" Bai Yu opened his eyes: "Of course there is no ......"

"That's good."

"You have to let them live to slowly bleed, it's too cheap to kill them directly, the industry of the past ten years will be lost in one day, I will definitely calculate this account, not only the Kanto Union, but even the shogunate will have to pay some price." Bai Yu spoke, his tone was indifferent, but the content was domineering and arrogant to the extreme.

Sakata Ryo couldn't tell whether Bai Yu was bragging or telling the truth.

In his opinion, it would be good to be able to keep the last bit of blood and manpower of the Bai Feng Group.

He was ready to vacate a part of the property here to give Bai Feng Group a foothold, but Bai Yu's answer far exceeded his expectations.

And although Sakata Liang and Bai Yu don't get along much, they know very well that Bai Yu always does what he says, if this time he doesn't exaggerate and can do it so that both the Kanto Union and the shogunate bow to him, then ...... The thigh I hugged may be much thicker than I thought.

After a few words of conversation, Bai Yu cut to the chase.

"How's the Nan family doing?"

Sakata walked outside the door and a moment later brought back a woman in her twenties, dressed in a kimono with the Nan family's crest on her sleeves and neckline.

"According to your meaning, ten years ago, one of the descendants of the Sakata family came to the Nan family as the younger sister of Minami Shiori...... She was the chosen person. ”

"It's my little daughter, Kana Sakata...... After changing his surname, he is now called Nan Channa, and he has been in the Nan family for nearly ten years, helping the head of the Nan family to deal with large and small affairs. ”

Minami Chana is also a rare beauty, different from Minami Shiori and Amamiya Masatsu sisters, she belongs to the kind of small Yamato Nadeshiko-style beauty.

The age of more than 20 years old, according to the customs of Yingzhou, is already a suitable age for marriage.

Bai Yu wanted to ask why he was still married, but when he looked back, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have mentioned that 'after the adoption, the marriage contract will be abolished'......

At that time, it was a succession, in order to further bind interests, and at the same time, worried about unexpected situations, it was difficult for Nan Shiori to pick the lead alone.

It's like now, Amamiya Masaki and Minami Shiori are missing, and they need to have someone reliable to deal with.

The status of Yingzhou women is not high, and they have to change their surnames after getting married, and when they change their surnames to Nanhou, she can only think about the Nan family, and there is no practical difference between her and the past.

He silently took a sip of tea and asked, "How is the Nan family?" ”

After Nan Chanel saluted, she replied with three points of apprehension: "At present, everything is stable, everything is carried out according to the advance arrangement, and there are not many important decisions that need to be made by the head of the family, and it will probably last for about half a year." ”

Bai Yu asked, "You haven't investigated the reason for their disappearance?" ”

"It has been more than a month since the head of the family and the exiled Jianhao disappeared, and during this time, many people have been arranged to investigate, but the news has been interrupted in Kyoto without exception." Minami Chana said: "The only clear information at the moment is that the exiled Kenhao and the head of the family went to the Inari Taisha shrine in Kyoto to pay homage, and after entering Kyoto, the two disappeared. ”

"Kyoto, Inari Taisha Shrine."

Bai Yu remembered the name.

Kyoto is the territory of the Emperor, that is, the territory of Shintoism.

The god Inari is the god of grain and food in Japanese mythology...... Inari God is a general term, and it does not refer to just one god of Uga's Imperial Soul God. Among them are also the Tsuki Niten, Tanaka Okami and so on.

As a result, the god Inari in Shinto generally does not have an idol of a god.

There is an SSR in the Onmyoji called Otsu, which is also one of the Inari gods.

The messenger of the Inari god is a fox because the fox eats rats that steal rice and are harmful to agriculture.

As a result, statues of foxes can be seen everywhere in the Inari Taisha Shrine, and these foxes are usually white foxes, and they are called Gozen Inari.

Although the messenger of the Inari god is a fox, the Inari god itself ...... It's not that the fox has changed.

These are all answers based on the relevant materials that I have seen in my previous life, and there may be certain differences in this world.

"None of you have been to the Inari Taisha Shrine?" Bai Yu asked.

"We sent someone to visit the shrine, but ......" Minami Kana smiled bitterly, "That's the Inari Taisha Shrine, and we can't investigate it at all, so we can only pay a visit step by step." ”

Bai Yu asked puzzledly: "Is that place very powerful?" ”

The Inari Taisha in his impression is obviously a tourist place that anyone can enter, and the flow of people is so large.

"It's not a question of whether it's great or not." Minami Chanel doesn't know how to explain: "It's a very special kind of ......"

Sakata Liang on the side relieved the siege and said: "The adults are from Great Xia, and most of them don't know anything about Yingzhou, let me briefly explain." ”

"The shrines and shrines in Yingzhou are all places dedicated to gods or ancestors, and there are very few shrines and shrines where gods are responsible for sitting in the real sense."

"Inari Taisha is one of them."

"Once you pass through the Chitorii gate and enter the shrine, it is equivalent to stepping into the realm of the gods."

Bai Yu picked up a biscuit and stuffed it into his mouth: "God's Domain? ”

He doesn't have any concept, this kind of god and ghost thing, probably a kind of enchantment?

But the next sentence made him suddenly regain his spirit.

Ryo Sakata continued, "Today's Inari God...... It is one of the three major canons of Yingzhou who is in charge, and is titled the Great Ming God of Imperial Cuisine! ”
