different warring states of japan

But Hosokawa Fujitaka started to hear something more and more wrong.

Her mind was running rapidly, and she slowly sorted out the circumstances of bringing Akechi Mitsuhide pregnant to the expedition, Oda Nobunaga going to Luo to see her off, and so on, and the logical line gradually became clear in her mind.

But just when Hosokawa Fujitaka thought of the critical moment, she suddenly felt severe pain in her abdomen, interrupting her train of thought.

Seeing the sudden change in her daughter's face and the countless beads of sweat on her forehead, Mibuchi Haruyu, who was silently listening to the conversation between Hosokawa and her daughter, asked nervously.

"Futaka, what's wrong with you?"

Hosokawa Fujitaka covered his lower abdomen with his hands and said with trembling.

"I... hurt..."

Mibuchi Haru looked down at her hand, her eyes suddenly widened, and she shouted.

"The amniotic water has broken! Call doctor Wen Po! Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

Hosokawa Fujitaka was sweating profusely in pain, and the little inspiration he had gathered just now was instantly torn to pieces and could never be recovered.

Akechi Mitsuhide loves so much, it hurts me to death! It hurts so much!

---

Fujitaka Hosokawa had severe abdominal pain, and the ordeal of childbirth made her forget everything in an instant.

However, Harano Takada of Sakai Port cannot be as cool as Hosokawa Fujitaka and happily give birth to a child.

At the Shinsengumi station, only Takada Haruno and Imai Munehisa were sitting across from each other in the inner room.

Imai Munehisa looked worried and said to Takada Yono who was looking through the documents.

"The source of the new funds for the smash-up has been found out. It is a Nanman businessman from Sakai Port."

Takada Yono paused for a moment while flipping the documents with his right hand, then continued to read the records, and asked lightly.

"Where did these Nanman people get their food stamps? They are not involved in stock trading or real estate transactions, and they have never come to Sibo Tucang to exchange food stamps."

Imai Muneji sighed.

"The Nanman merchants have sailed here and are wandering, so naturally they don't need our food stamps.

However, merchants in Sakai Port have become more and more accustomed to using food stamps in recent years. Light food stamps have gradually replaced heavy gold, silver, copper coins, and grain as the medium of transaction.

Everyone's cash flow is solved with food stamps. Nanman merchants follow the local customs, so naturally they have to deal with food stamps.

Whether it is a mortgage or a deposit, Nanman merchants will accept food stamps from Sakai Port merchants.

As far as I know, Nanman merchants have formed food stamp exchange agents within themselves to assist in processing food stamp exchanges and facilitate Nanman merchants to participate in island country trade.

They have their own cycle. They enter the port to exchange and leave to clear their positions, which is beyond our control. "

Takada Yono narrowed his eyes, not liking the feeling that the food stamps were out of his control.

In order to facilitate trade, Nanman merchants spontaneously formed a black market for food stamps, which facilitated their import and export trade and also created new hidden dangers for Takada Yono's food stamp system.

Imai Munehisa carefully looked at Takada Harano's face and said in a deep voice.

"Someone should have exchanged a large amount of food stamps with the Nanman merchants and used them to smash the Hokuriku Trade Route stocks.

But why do they do this? This is a total loss-making business. "

The form of Hokurikudo Trading Route's stock is very crude and lacks short-selling and hedging channels. In other words, you can only go long on this stock, not short. You can make money only if the price goes up, and you lose money if the price goes down.

This design was originally created by Takada Harano to make it easier for her to cut leeks with her hands.

But nowadays, some fools are willing to spend money to smash the dishes. This makes Imai Munehisa wonder, what are the people who smash the dishes?

Takada Yono sneered.

“If you can’t figure it out, then don’t think about it.

First, transfer our funds to protect the market. If we don't take action, the mentality of small and medium-sized investors will collapse. They will sell madly at all costs and completely destroy the Hokuriku Doro stock. "

Imai Munehisa was stunned and confirmed.

"Go in now? All allies have not been contacted yet. If our family's funds go in first, this will be an unplanned loss and will affect our future profits."

Takada Harano was so tired that he closed his eyes and said helplessly.

"I can't care so much anymore. Those Wu families know nothing. They only know how to dig food in the fields and don't understand the importance of the food stamp system at all.

Those idiots, the only way they know how to rule is to collect taxes, but is it so easy to make the untouchables pay taxes willingly?

Since the troubled times, the name of the Wu family has become more and more strict in taxation in order to meet the needs of war. The land tax of four citizens and six citizens is considered a benevolent government. If it is more ruthless, eight citizens and two citizens dare to do it. I am really not afraid of rebellion.

In addition to land, there is a separate tax on the population, a tax on roads, and a tax on mountains, forests, and minerals. They do everything.

But even so, how much tax can actually be collected?

People always have to eat, and if the food and hope for survival of the untouchables are taken away, the untouchables will fight tooth and nail.

It's a joke to go to the countryside to collect taxes, but to bring all the people and horses fully armed. This is not about collecting taxes, let's just say robbery.

The Sibo food stamp system I established made the Sibo family richest in the world without raising taxes. I also owe a share of the credit for the name of a saint and benevolence.

What do they know, what do they know!

These stupid warrior women saw the stock price collapse and still wanted to laugh at my jokes. They were really not afraid that when the avalanche came, they themselves would not be able to escape the disaster! "

Takada Yono became more and more sad the more he talked about it.

The core of a political power is finance, and the core of finance is taxation.

The stupidest way to collect taxes is to directly increase the harvest in proportion to the harvest. Land tax, capitation tax, and customs duties are all done in this way. If you force it into other people's pockets, will other people be happy?

The most clever method of taxation is often to moisturize things silently and complete the transfer of wealth unknowingly.

For example, there is the transaction tax on stocks on the Hokuriku Expressway, the surcharge on Shiba real estate, and the newly emerging transaction of houses in Shiba’s selected school district.

People who have money to participate in stocks, real estate, and education consumption are the real good leeks, and they will remain silent even if they are cut.

There are these fine leeks that are easy to harvest, so why bother bothering the untouchables in the countryside who have nothing?

Earn a sum of coinage rights by exchanging food stamps, and then continue to draw commissions through the transaction process, increasing the cost of transaction friction, and unknowingly achieving the goal of taxation.

The Spo Territory implements a benevolent government of four citizens and six citizens. In addition, the saint does not like to impose excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes. The taxes collected from the land are simply not enough to maintain the operation of the Spo family.

The real financial income of the Shiba family has long been the Shiba food stamp system, which is the money printing machine established with Takada Harano's painstaking efforts.

As long as there are still people using food stamps, Takada Yono can quietly tax each user through various additional costs for food stamps.

In turn, once the food stamps collapse, all the pressure will come back to her.

Imai Munehisa said it was too early to intervene to protect the market, which was tantamount to using his own funds to block the loopholes and allowing the allies behind him to watch the show.

Takada Yono has been preparing plans for several years. Once the rhythm is disrupted and the losses increase greatly, the numbers to make up for the shortfall may not be enough later.
