Chapter 12, Rise Fengyuanjia (I)
After Shen Fei figured out the role of his golden finger, he naturally ran to socialize, anyway, he had a few silver judgments and 10 copper coins in his pocket, as well as 10 stones of rice, so don't be too chic to invite guests.
Of course, it is impossible for Shen Fei to go to the tavern chic, that is, an ordinary tavern in the town of the castle, and he drinks the most ordinary wine, and it is a vegetarian seat, so he doesn't dare to call him a wine lady.
The most popular guests were none other than low-level samurai with the rank of Senior Bronze Horseman. I can't even invite a samurai with a position.
Shen Fei didn't want to invite middle and high-level samurai and low-level samurai with positions, but they didn't give face.
Even the Lord Jiazai, who seemed to be very friendly to Shen Fei, only accepted Shen Fei's small gifts, and did not accept the invitation, and did not even let Shen Fei enter the door.
And Shen Fei also knew at this time that one was that there was a huge difference in everyone's status, and although Shen Fei had established meritorious service, he was still the lowest level of warrior.
The second is that Shen Fei has no power, even if his fighting power is awesome, it is rubbish, and a powerful warrior will not care about such a person.
The third is that Shen Fei doesn't have enough money for this product! He can't afford to spend in a high-end tavern at all, so those middle-level and high-level warriors who have some wealth won't have anything to do with Shen Fei's poor.
Therefore, Shen Fei had to mix in the lowest level of the samurai circle, but fortunately, Shen Fei's poor and miserable Yu Lu was able to maintain inviting all the low-level samurai.
And this thing is awesome, not only all the low-level samurai have been invited, but also all the attendants and attendants who have a little power. There is even a good reputation of Ashigaru pleased.
Please middle and high-level samurai and samurai with authority, Shen Fei has no face, but please these small commissioners, attendants, and ashigaru who are doing what they do. That was a big face, and all the people who received Shen Fei's banquet felt that their faces were bright.
After all, they are not warriors, and Shen Fei is a warrior, in this world where warriors are most noble, they are completely condescending, how can they not be excited.
Although after one round, Shen Fei's appearance was only one or two runs. Half of the 10 stone rice was sold, but the reputation spread at the bottom of Yamada City, and being hospitable and generous was Shen Fei's current reputation.
Don't underestimate the reputation at the bottom. Now Shen Fei's goods, that is, the third watch returned to the samurai house in the city from the castle in the middle of the night, it was also easy, and the guards guarding the door would definitely secretly open a crack in the door to let him in and out.
There's something to do. A shout. Immediately hula la-la-la, a large number of people came. These are the connections, these are the foundations.
Of course, people who know Shen Fei's consumption secretly ridicule him for being a loser, and if he has money, he doesn't want to buy the hearts of the people at the bottom, and his part-time job is upside down!
And this product is not ready to live? 10 stone of rice and 10 guan of Yu Lu are New Year's money! This product has been used for the New Year's Salary in less than a month, and there is still more than half a year, how will it go on then? Just rely on the poor land of 100 stones?
Of course, these people don't know. Shen Fei, who has a golden finger, can guarantee that he has 100 more stones of rice for plain use. It's much better than the production of your own knowledge. And if the rice is sold before the autumn harvest, it will make even more money.
And now Shen Fei is stupid, stupid, and wants to move, I want to know that after his own promotion, the void image above his head can be stored on the spot, if he can, hehe, it will be awesome.
Don't underestimate Shen Fei spending this money on these low-level people, although it is impossible to be loyal to him or anything, but the wide range of people and news is enough to compensate for the consumption. Now that there is something going on in the Yamada family, Shen Fei can also get the news in a very short time.
For example, this time, the head of the Yamada family led most of the samurai and ashigaru in Yanshi Township for a month, in order to appease and suppress the first-class local tyrants in Yanshi Township, because if these local snakes are not pacified and suppressed properly, even if they nominally occupy Yanshi Township, they don't want to get any benefits from Yanshi Township.
Others don't know, anyway, Shen Fei knew from the wine table that the pacification and suppression of the head of the Yamada family this time was not very smooth, because of the terrain of Yanshi Township, many local tyrants built fortresses in the steep mountains, and the more remote the guys, the more they did not recognize the rule of the Yamada family.
Even if it was a nominal submission, he was not happy, and the head of the Yamada family had to send Kanda-sama, a big killing weapon, and grain and copper coins at the same time, and it took more than a month to get the inkstone township.
This is also the reason why Shen Fei has been in Yamada City for more than a month, and he eats, drinks, and has fun all day long, because he can't receive the slightest task at all, and no one takes him to receive Zhixing, and the operation of the whole family is tilted towards Yanshi Township, where can he take care of him as a little warrior.
Shen Fei didn't want to take advantage of this time to go to the shrine to practice his power, this shrine is in the mountains and forests near Qingtian Town, but Shen Fei, who ran there in a hurry, inquired about the price, the cheapest, the easiest to learn, about the "exciting" power of the leader, actually had to be worshiped a hundred times.
As for the cheapest power in the samurai combat system, the "One Sword Slash" can make one's own katana form a three-meter sword qi, how many offerings do you need?200 kan.
Hearing this price, Shen Fei directly gave a few copper plates and then turned around and ran. It's not that he didn't think of working at the shrine to see if there is a chance to steal from school, but the shrine said that there is no need for extra manpower if there are enough people.
So to mess around, Shen Fei had no choice but to treat himself to a large number of guests, and what he used on himself was to buy a set of replacement samurai uniforms, the cheapest kind also needed consistent money, and as for the daily necessities of pots and pans and chopsticks, it could be done for a few hundred yuan.
Shen Fei didn't think of recruiting servants, but the servants from the castle town have a high price, and they dare not guarantee loyalty, and if they ask for cheap prices and loyalty, then there are only farmers in their own Zhixing, but Shen Fei didn't take over Zhixing, so there is no servant in the family, and when guests come, they have to serve tea and pour water by themselves, which makes Shen Fei depressed.
On this day, an attendant from the Executive Hall hurriedly came to look for Shen Fei: "Lord Fengyuan, Lord Jiazai asked you to report the family crest, the lord is about to return, and you need to let the lord confirm this." ”
"The lord is coming back, has Yanshi Township been done?" Shen Fei asked excitedly.
"That's it. "This attendant has also drunk with Shen Fei several times, so he naturally understands some of Shen Fei's words that are beyond the times.
"Okay, I'll give my brother the family crest to take back. Shen Fei naturally didn't say a word, took out a black lotus pattern that had been prepared a long time ago and handed it over.
"Wow, Lord Fengyuan, this pattern is very beautifully designed, which master painted it?" the attendant looked at the pattern with admiration.
"Hey, I don't know which master it is, it's just a guest I met in the tavern who drank too much and didn't ask for the other person's name. Shen Fei said with a smile, he is now a turtle, and he can't show his cultural roots yet, but Shen Fei has already thought about it, and when he has money, he will take the opportunity to learn culture when he goes to the shrine to learn power, otherwise he won't be able to show off his skills in the future.
"Understood, I'll send it back to the Executive Hall. The attendant nodded and put away the paper, he knew that Shen Fei would invite guests to drink as long as he looked at the other party, and he had a slight reputation in the castle town, and it was too normal to ask a passing wind painter to help.
Shen Fei, who stayed alone in the cold home, didn't care about the environment at all, and lay directly against a bundle of rice, thinking about Erlang's legs: "Damn! I thought that after the head of the Yamada family was attracted to Yanshi Township, the small forces behind the farts would definitely take the opportunity to swarm and attack the Yamada family, but I didn't expect that it would be calm for more than a month." ”
"I'm looking forward to something like this so that I can participate in the fight to drive out the invasion. ”
"Now it seems that there is still some ignorance of the state of the world, who would have thought that when there is still a month or two before the autumn harvest, everyone will actually stop fighting and concentrate on waiting for the farmland. But there is no hurry, when the autumn harvest is over, the grain is abundant, the peasants and soldiers have nothing to do, and a series of major battles will definitely come, and when the time comes, there will be a chance to earn land and make some money. ”
The next day, Shen Fei continued to be chic, but soon learned that the lord had arrived not far outside the city, and the warriors with authority such as the family lord naturally came out to greet him, and Shen Fei didn't even have a chance to greet them.
As the brigade returned to Yamada Castle, the lord held a council, half of the ashigaru unloaded his armor and went home, and half of the ashigaru continued to serve on duty, and Yamada Castle, which was originally a little restless, immediately settled down.
This made Shen Fei, who was very sensitive to changes in the atmosphere, couldn't help but sigh, the head of the family was not at home, and the feeling was completely different.
As for the ashigaru being unarmored and going home, this is normal, they are not really a standing army, they are just leading a meager salary to equip these semi-peasant soldiers who are in charge of the main family. When there is nothing to do, the main family is eager to disband all the ashigaru, because the main family is in charge of the food when Ashigaru is on duty, so it is better to drive them home and eat themselves.
Besides, although Ashigaru does not have to be conceited and has a meager income, it is slightly better than that of ordinary farmers, and if everyone in the family has food, they still have to participate in the farm work at home.
Not to mention these ashigaru, the low-ranking samurai were all responsible for participating in the farming, and the mid-level samurai would also personally supervise the cultivation and harvesting work. So don't look at the fact that Yamada Castle is still home to a large number of samurai and soldiers, and once the autumn harvest arrives, the city will definitely be empty of seventy or eighty percent of the people, and all of these people will go to work in the fields.
Shen Fei didn't have long to be dashing, and the next day he was summoned to the castle tower and received the land canonization documents, samurai identity confirmation documents, and family crest confirmation documents from the head of the Yamada family. Carrying this stack of things out, the people sent by the Executive Hall to make sure that he knew what to do also came.
It is impossible for someone to do this kind of thing to have an identity, and those who don't have an identity are naturally Shen Fei's drinking friends, so the group first went to get a few flags painted with black lotus patterns, and then applied for a flag of the Yamada family, because there are drinking friends everywhere, and they don't know how good they are to do these things.
Then in order to thank these drinking friends for their magnificent scene, Shen Fei naturally led everyone to eat and drink, and the last group of people swaggered and carried the banner and hugged Shen Fei onto the village road. (To be continued......)
