different warring states of japan

Chapter 700

Matsunaga Hideo was overjoyed, and Honda Masanobu bowed his head humbly after speaking, which made her feel even more favorable.I just think that Ji Ji has outstanding intelligence and knows how to behave in a low-key manner, which can be used to great effect.

She never thought about how Honda Zhengxin was an outsider from Sanhe, how she learned about the internal relationship between the Miyoshi family and Ji Samurai, and made accurate and quick judgments based on this.

Where the sources of these news come from, only Honda Zhengxin himself knows best.

The personable and elegant woman in the capital, who smiled kindly at her and provided so much accurate information behind her back, made Honda Zhengxin such a blockbuster.

Although he knew that the price of the gift of fate had been secretly marked, Honda Zhengshin, who had nothing and was unwilling to be mediocre, could only accept her kindness and could not refuse.

Matsunaga Hideo defends day and night, but he doesn't know that Akechi Mitsuhide has long sleeves and is good at dancing, entrenched in the capital and weaves a net, and finally fell into her calculation.

---

Near the west, Sakai Port, where the Shinsengumi is stationed.

It is not known that the Miyoshi family has already started to use various methods against Sakai Port, and Takada Yono, who is in a business war with various merchants in the Tokaido, is worried about too much money.

Imai Sohisa bowed to the ground in front of her and apologized.

"I'm very sorry, but I really can't spend it."

Takada Yono couldn't laugh or cry, he didn't expect that one day he would be troubled by too many copper coins.She underestimated the value of the Hokuriku Road trade route, and also underestimated the financial resources of the soil warehouse.

The troubled times have come, the world is in chaos, and it is difficult to recover the money and food borrowed by Tucang.It's not that Tucang is afraid that the borrower won't pay back, it's just that the dead can't pay back the money.

A war can wipe out several samurai families.A looting of a caravan will hang several merchants.

In this case, who will the earth warehouse lend to?How much money can be safely received?

Finally, the Siba family came to take advantage of it, and the Hokuriku Road trade route was very profitable, and the Shiba family didn't seem like a grassroots team that would collapse easily.

Takada Yono wanted to borrow money, and Dokura Manager wanted to borrow money even more. These people were far more greedy and stupid than Takada Yono and Imai Sohisa imagined.

This led to the exchange of too many copper coins for the shares pledged by the Hokuriku Road Commercial Road.In Sakai Port and Kyoto, there are well-known dokuras, all vying to send money to Takada Yono.

Even if Imai Zonghisa tried his best to subsidize the caravan traveling the Hokuriku Road trade route and sweep the goods in the market, he still couldn't use up the money.

Imai Zongjiu smiled wryly.

"My lord, we can't buy any more.

The prices of large and small goods that can be bought in the market have all been driven up by me, ranging from [-]% to three times as much.

If we continue to buy it, we will become the enemy of the entire Sakai Port. "

Takada Yono nodded silently.

A large amount of copper coins deposited in the earthen warehouse hit the market, disrupting the normal trading in an instant, and driving the price of goods to a high level.

Sakai Port is the most important port in recent days. The valuation of commodities booked in winter will affect the market prices of the entire near future next year.

Although the Shiba family is not afraid of the merchant's anger, and has never heard of what the merchant can do to the Wu family.However, as a result, a large number of small businessmen go bankrupt or operate at a loss, so we still need to be cautious.

Yono Takada still wants to do business in Sakai Port, and also wants business channels, so he can't go too far, and needs to leave a way for people to survive.

Takada Yono asked.

"How many copper coins do we have?"

Imai Zongjiu said uncertainly.

"Excluding the necessary reserves, there are still about [-] guan, right?

I'm so sorry, but I really can't be sure.There are too many copper coins that have been passed these days, and they have not been calculated clearly. "

Sohisa Imai bowed and apologized, and Yono Takada couldn't laugh or cry.

It can make Imai Zonghisa, a big businessman, unable to count the money in his hands for a while, which shows that the amount of copper coins spit out by the earth warehouse this time is jaw-dropping.

Takada Yono smiled and comforted him.

"It's not your fault. Since you can't finish the flowers, let me spend them."

A bad premonition floated in Imai Zongjiu's heart, and he asked cautiously.

"My lord, where do you want to spend so much money?"

Looking at the afterglow of winter outside the house, Takada Yono remembered the bold words in Owari.

I want to earn a lot of money, so that the Lord can use inexhaustible money, food and armaments, and inexhaustible military power.

My lord, I want to prove to you that your Takada Yono is already beyond comparison.

She said emphatically.

"I want to build a batch of armor and send it to Echigo before the autumn harvest next year to help the Lord conquer the Kanto."

Imai Zongjiu breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was a big deal, but it turned out that it was to build a tutu.

Sakai Port is one of the two major business centers in recent times, where merchants and artisans gather. Are you afraid that you can’t find someone to make a few protective gear?

She nodded with a smile.

"Indeed, we should do our best to the lord.

What kind of doutong do you want to build, I will supervise and ensure that you are satisfied. "

Takada Yono looked at her with a smile, and she had a bad feeling.

"I'm talking about armor. It's the kind of smooth, feminine, and mighty plate armor drawn in books passed down from the southern barbarians."

A trace of cold sweat dripped from the forehead of Imai Sokyu, and he said with a dry smile.

"That kind? How many do you want?"

Takada Yono said while snapping his fingers.

"Create two hundred and fifty plate full-body armors, and another fifty vests. It looks beautiful, and the lord will definitely like it."

Imai Sohisa could hardly bear the urge to roll his eyes, feeling like he was about to suffocate, and roared in his heart.

grown ups!What a nonsense!
In the Kamakura period, the traditional battle of the samurai was to mount and shoot first.A warrior Ji led the Qibalang party and rode a horse wearing a large armor that was convenient for riding and shooting.

Later, with the progress of the times, the battle tactics continued to innovate, and the big armor of the samurai was gradually replaced by one with better protection.

Up to now, with the introduction of external technology, the high-defense Nanman carcass of the Nanman style is most suitable for samurai combat, and the technology is very mature.

But Takada Yoshino looked down on these practical protective gear, and even skipped the cloth face armor of the Celestial Dynasty, and chose the most beautiful Nanban full-body plate armor.

This kind of plate armor is only mighty and dazzling, and it is almost useless in Japan.

Japan has seven mountains, two waters and one field, and there are few open and flat grounds for war, and it is not convenient to transport heavy armor when marching.Most of the warriors' tutu are medium and light armors that focus on protection, and they don't need heavy armor.

Japan has had plate armor and armor since ancient times.

It's just that the smelting technology is insufficient, the pig iron is too brittle, the wrought iron is too soft, and the steel is not yet mature.

The whole piece of pig iron plate armor is too low in defense and is the equipment of the followers, while the armor with higher defense and heavier is the traditional equipment of the samurai.

With the technological innovation, the Nanman body is a new type of body manufactured by the Japanese based on the Nanman plate armor, but it has not been rolled out on a large scale.

On the one hand, it is difficult to manufacture, and steel is expensive.On the other hand, it is also not suitable for the war needs of Japan, and the price/performance ratio is too low.

However, Takada Yono is going to manufacture on a large scale now, which is more powerful than the Nanban armor, but it is even less suitable for the Nanban armor for fighting in Japan.

Sohisa Imai really can't figure it out, why spend this wrong money?Do you burn your hands if you have too much money?
Takada Yono of course has his own needs, this is not an economic account, but a political account.

She needs to use this batch of plate armor to let Shibo Yoshihiro shake her current strong financial resources.To provide support for her future position in the heart of the lord and the power in the Shiba family.
