Chongwen scratched his head through the net scarf, snorted, and then said: "Lord Xinwei, since you sincerely join the group, you must respect the league meeting and obey the dispatch of the General Administration of the country." Those money is not the price of buying a group, the cabinet is a big business that benefits the group, and it will definitely make a lot of profits in the future, and everyone will get rich, so the cabinet is really not short of your gold.

To tell you the truth, in the future, all important ports in the country will be under the control of the bureau. But who to give it to, everyone has to negotiate, and the bureau will arrange it fairly. Although I am the treasurer of the bureau, I don't dare to promise Yamaguchi Castle to you now. ”

Matsuura Nobuwei groaned and said, "Then why did my Matsuura Party want to join?"

Zhang Lian stared at the old pirate and said slowly: "At least ensure the absolute safety of your current industry, and I won't tell you that I don't know how many brothers in the group are worried about my brother's Mishima." ”

Matsuura Shinwei's eyes suddenly widened, and he said sharply: "Are you threatening?" I remember that Wufeng Gong said that the group of the East China Sea Merchant Group is a brother with the dead and dead. Without me, the Matsuura Party and the Hirado Merchant Gang would have lived and died together, and you would be prosperous today. ”

Zhang Lian sneered and said, "Yes, it's just that Tuanzong still has a sentence, those who carry their brothers will be punished." If you don't join the group, you are carrying your brother. ”

Matsuura Nobui slowly narrowed his eyes, and after a while he opened them again, turned to Chongwen, and asked, "The Great Expedition to the Sea is the big boss of the Shogunate, how can the Shogunate force the Shogunate to give up the port of the country? What can I, the Matsuura Party?"

Chongwen said: "If my expectations are right, General Yiquan will not survive this summer. Once he dies, Kakune Yoshimitsu and the Kamakura duke will fight, there will be a good fight between the shogunate ministers, and the battle of Matsuura-gun will inevitably stop, so you don't have to worry about Matsuura's safety.

Once the Kyushu Exploration Mansion withdraws its troops, the Bureau will ask you to Chen Bingma Pass, so that Ouchi Yoshihiro will not dare to mobilize troops from Nagato Province, Iwami Province, Zhou Visiting Province and Kyushu Dazaifu to enter the city. They wanted to enter the city by two roads, either through the Seto Inland Sea, or from the Shimonoseki Strait to the open sea, bypassing Kyushu, and entering the city from a new route.

But now it seems that the Seto Inland Sea naval forces are intricate, and the Awaji naval forces and the Awa naval forces are guarding Osaka Bay like iron buckets, and this road may not be possible for him. Speaking of the new route, the army of the Gang Bureau was going to enter Sakai Castle and could not afford to guard such a long sea route, so the Gang Bureau asked you to block the Shimonoseki Strait and trap the 20,000 samurai of the Ouchi family in the Chugoku region. ”

Matsuura Nobumi was a little puzzled and asked, "Could it be that the bureau supports the Hosokawa family?"

Chongwen smiled: "Of course not, but we don't want the Ouchi family to win, it can only be my East China Sea Business Group that wins, do you understand?"

Matsuura Nobuwei shook his head and said, "I'm very strange, even if the shogunate is at odds, it can mobilize more than 50,000 troops at any time, and no matter how strong the situation is, I don't dare to say that it will win." ”

Chai Demei said coldly: "Lord Xinwei should know about the Battle of Youdao, do you know why one warship on Longwang Island can force back 5,000 people from the Hosokawa Navy?"

Matsuura Nobuwei said: "I have to ask, I heard that there is a powerful firearm on the ship of Ryuo Island, and the rod fire arrow and the roasting fire arrow are not as good, I don't know if it is true or not." ”

Chai Demei said: "Yes, in fact, there are only 3 big guns on the ship, if we come with 30 doors and 300 big guns? Even if he has 50,000 troops, what is the East China Sea merchant group afraid of?"

Matsuura Nobuwei was silent, and the bureau planned to fight with the snipe and the clam and the fishermen to benefit, and finally completely subdued the shogunate with a terrifying big gun.

One of the most critical aspects of the success of this plan was to hide their strength and make the shogunate magnates think that Hirado was just a merchant gang, and although the fleet was strong, there were only more than 2,000 sailors, and they were not afraid to kill each other.

But the old pirates already know that the East China Sea merchant group is not only the Hirado merchant gang, but also the Nanao merchant gang, the Yuegang merchant gang, the Zhelin merchant gang and the Meiling merchant gang, and most of the Dakang maritime forces have formed a merchant group, and maybe most of the Kyushu pirates, as well as the Kumano water army, and maybe the Matsuura party.

Once the Tokai merchant group arrives with a large number of artillery pieces, and the shogunate cannot unite as one, it will definitely be defeated. However, if the various forces of the shogunate reconciled and fought together, the Tokai merchant group would not be able to defeat each other.

The East China Sea Merchant Group is showing its hideous teeth step by step, and it seems that if he does not join the group, the industry of the Matsuura Party will undoubtedly be divided by the merchant group, and he will not even be able to get out of the main hall of the merchant group. They had already informed most of the Bureau's plans, and they were not afraid to warn the shogunate magnates at all, because they had already made up their minds that if they didn't join the group, they would die.

In the face of interests, the friendship between himself and Wu Zhi is really nothing.

Matsuura Nobuwei smiled slightly, but why didn't the Matsuura Party join the group? Relying on the strong and dividing up the weak was originally the way to survive in the family. Now that the Matsuura Party is surrounded by enemies on all sides and is fighting against the whole of Kyushu, who can they count on if they don't rely on the Tokai Merchant Group?

He finally said slowly: "I understand, the regiment will be far-sighted, and I admire it." However, there is another question, after the shogunate is destroyed, how should the situation end, you can't rule the people of the country. ”

Wu Zhi smiled and said, "What are we doing to exterminate the shogunate? We are merchants, and we are here for money." We don't want the land of the country, and we don't want to rule over you, we want the gold and silver of the country.

But since Lord Xinwei asked, I have to make it clear to you. We helped the shogunate to stabilize the country, and the shogunate could not fail to say that the Tokai merchant group would conclude a trade treaty with the Kakune shogunate, mainly in three parts.

First of all, the military expenses of the East China Sea merchant group must be borne by the shogunate, and we are merchants, so we can't let me lose the cost of the East Sea. Second, we didn't trust the Kakune shogunate, so we wanted the country to establish a Hikai shogunate on an equal footing with the Kakune shogunate, and to be in charge of the country's maritime trade and trade affairs.

Finally, we want to have the right of trade and autonomy in some of the ports of the country, just like the city of Qi. Even if the Heikai shogunate levied taxes, it had to negotiate with the bureau, and it was not allowed to increase the taxes for no reason.

As for how these ports are distributed, of course, they belong to the entire Qidong of the Qi Bureau, and if Lord Xinwei contributes greatly, it is not impossible to get the Xijing Yamaguchi Castle of the Qi Kingdom. However, if you want to pay 18,000 gold for a small judgment, then you must have misunderstood, my East China Sea merchant group distributes Aokou and property, relying on blood and hard work, and the amount of money is only related to the dividends of the cabinet. ”

Matsuura Nobuyo let out a sigh of relief and said, "When the Matsuura Party joins the group, it also has to become the leader of the bureau. ”

Wu Zhi laughed, got up and patted Matsuura Nobuyi on the shoulder, and said: "That's right, today I will be the east, and I will go to the cold house to catch up with the old days, I can specially invite the flower world emblem flirting class, you must like it." ”

Matsuura Nobuwei suddenly asked, "That... What is Ryuju's plan?"

Zhang Lian stood up and said reluctantly: "I still have mundane things, so I can't accompany them." ”

Wu Zhi smiled mysteriously at the old man and said, "Let's talk about it in detail when you get to the cold house, don't worry, what kind of person is the Flying Dragon King, he will never reject people thousands of miles away." ”

Chongwen also stood up and said, "I'm also going back to the flower world, and my friends from Kyoto are still waiting." Brother Mingmei, Yan Shanlao, you will accompany Master Xinwei for me. ”

In the evening, Chongwen and Zhang Lian returned to the flower world and went back to the account room to deal with business. Chongwen sat in the study for a while, and ordered Kayama Yoshimasa to bring Ryosuke Nitta in, and the maid Hanako served tea, smiled at the paper merchant, and quietly withdrew. Only Chongwen and Ryosuke Nitta were left in the study, and now Chongwen's Chinese language has improved rapidly, and general dialogue is no longer a problem.

Nitta said with some excitement: "Finally seeing His Royal Highness Daidehai again, the people of Ryuo Island in Kyoto miss it very much. ”

Chongwen said with a smile: "Have you all settled your family?"

Nitta said, "We both bought a house in Heian Sakyo, and we opened a paper factory on the banks of the Kamogawa River. Everyone is also doing well, and they are all looking forward to Dragon King Island being the king of the East China Sea and glorifying Kyoto. ”

Chongwen nodded and said, "That's good, where is the letter?"

Ryosuke Nitta hurriedly said: "I patronized and talked to Da Izuhai, and I almost delayed the big event." He lifted his robe, untied his leggings, and lifted his hakama skirt, only to see that the deerskin letterbag of Dakang Zhenhaiwei was tied to his calf. It is not easy to run thousands of five hundred miles with such a burden tied to his legs, and Ryosuke Nitta works hard.

The Kyoto paper merchant took out two letters from the deerskin pouch, and presented them respectfully to Chongwen, who took the letters, but it was not clear who had sent them on the cover. He put the letter aside and looked at Ryosuke Nitta with an inquiring gaze.

Nitta said, "Since I left Sakaijo, I have not returned to my hometown of Mino, and I have arranged for others to return to my hometown to settle my family, so I myself quietly went to Kyoto and delivered the letter to the deacon's office.

To tell you the truth, I was trembling at the time, for fear of being beheaded by the samurai on duty. However, I said that I was from Ryuo Island, and that this book was written by Daikai, and Hosokawa Yorimoto, the brother of Deacon Hosokawa Yoriyuki, met me in person and asked me in detail about my origin. ”

Chongwen took a sip of tea and pretended to ask casually, "What did you say?"

Ryosuke Nitta said: "I'm not a fool, naturally I should say what I should say, and don't say what I shouldn't say, I won't expose the strength of Ryuo Island, nor will I expose the location of Ryuo Island." I said that I was a paper merchant in Minokoku, who was captured by a kraken, and who happened to meet a great sea at sea, and was rescued by the naval army of Ryuo Island, and sent to Sakai Castle, and asked me to deliver the letter to the deacon's office. ”

Chongwen nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good, then?" At that time, Hosokawa Yoriyuki was at the Four Heavenly Kings Temple, and he wanted to arrest him all over the world, and he probably didn't know that he had sent someone to contact him.
