different warring states of japan

Chapter 738

Takada Yono narrowed his eyes and sneered.

"They really dare to think."

Sohisa Imai also smiled wryly.

It is ironic that she was asked by Takada Yono to join the Ichigo Sect because of the Tucang matter, but she is here to bring a message to Takada Yono for the Nanman Sect.

If the fanatics of Shishan Hongan Temple knew about this, she, a believer of the Yizong sect who was just released from the oven, would be chopped into meat.

"My lord, if I don't smuggle iron materials to the Celestial Dynasty, and only rely on the existing iron materials in the country, even if I collect at a high price, I can only complete one-third of your entrusted share at most."

Takada Yangno frowned, planning in his mind.One-third is less than one hundred sets, so it's better not to do it.

She didn't build the plate armor because they were suitable for the Japanese battlefield, but to show off with the plate armor and show her strength to the lord.

If the number is not large enough, there will be no shocking effect, and it will not be able to impress the lord.

This is not an economic account, it is a political account, all that is needed is Shiba Yoshiyin's shock at the moment he saw these plate armors.

It doesn't matter if you spend [-] guan or [-] guan, political needs are higher than economic needs.But if the number is not enough to impact Shiba Yoshiyin's three views, it will be a complete failure.

But the demands of the southern barbarians were too excessive, and it was difficult for Takada Yono to accept.

"No, I can't believe in the Nanban religion. It's harmful to my foothold in Sakai Port. These Nanban believers have bad intentions."

Takada Yo is a Shingon sect believer, that's because Shiba Yoshigin joined the Shingon sect, and most of Shiba's samurai follow the lord's belief.

She doesn't mind switching religions for profit, but this matter is too sensitive in Sakai Port.

Sakai Port, Kyoto, is the focus of the penetration of the Nanban Religion, and the faith brought by sea has already touched the sensitive nerves of the original religions in recent times.

Since Ashikaga Yoshimitsu slaughtered the emperor and his ministers, Shintoism has withered.Buddhism is the dominant branch of religion, and it has long been invincible in the world.

Even though the sects are constantly fighting with each other, they are all descendants of the Buddhist sect, and they are somewhat related, and the meat is always rotten in their own pot.

However, Nanmanism is a completely different kind of belief, and it is also the most exclusive monotheism.Doctrine is either one or the other, there is no compromise.

As the most fanatical branch of Buddhism, Yixiangzong has always been in tit-for-tat with the Nanban Diocese in Sakai Port and Kyoto.

The villages around Settsu fought bloody battles every year for their faith.The upper class samurai fight endlessly on their own and have no intention to deal with the dispute of belief, but it does not mean that they are not afraid of the terror of religious fanaticism.

Takada Yono will not cause this trouble. It is good to believe in the Koyasan Shingon sect, why is she mixing up the death struggle between the Ichigo sect and the Nanman sect.

The Nanban Diocese valued Takada Yono, and wanted to recruit her to join the church in order to expand their influence in Sakai Port and even near Japan.

Takada Yono believed it.As long as she is willing to nod, the iron materials smuggled by the Celestial Dynasty will definitely be at a fair price, and they may even give her half of the loss.

Portuguese and Westerners are more enthusiastic about the spread of faith than trading to make money, and they can definitely do this kind of thing.

However, if Takada Yono joined the Nanban Sect, then Honganji Xianru would no longer care about the investment of the [-] guan soil warehouse loan, and would definitely kill her.

No matter how important Shi Shan's Master is to money, he will never be ambiguous about the fundamental standpoint of religious struggle.

The failure of the religious struggle is not as simple as killing the whole family, but a complete removal from the body to the spirit.

The teachings and believers handed down from eleven generations of Honganji Temple were all burned.After death, they will be splashed with sewage and stepped on ten thousand feet, because the dead cannot refute.

Takada Yono thought about it, but still shook his head.

"No, absolutely not, is there any other way?"

Sohisa Imai said.

"There is another channel, but it will cost a lot. Avoid the Portuguese and the Westerners, and go to the English and Dutch."

Takada Yono was taken aback, and nodded.

"It is indeed about to bleed, isn't Sen Rikyu a line for the soil warehouse in Kyoto?

The money is nowhere to be used either, so spend it here. "

Imai Zongjiu smiled bitterly, she knew it would be like this.

The current problem of the Hokuriku Road trade route is that the incident at Nanao Port has shaken the confidence of the caravan.This is no longer a problem that can be solved by spending money, so the earth warehouse in her hand is full of borrowing funds.

And Takada Yoshino was determined to play a political deal, and she spent money to make Shibo Yiyin dizzy. She didn't care how much money was spent.

Imai Zonghisa's suggestion is to spend more money, because the Nanban merchants have more than one force.

The southern barbarians headed by Portuguese and Westerners emphasize missionary work, and they can sacrifice trade interests as long as they can spread their Lord.

The British and Dutch are heretics in the Southern Barbarian religion. They don't care much about beliefs, and they pay more attention to trade interests, and their relationship with Portuguese and Westerners is not good.

Since Takata Yono rejected the request of the Nanman Diocese, he still insisted on building this batch of plate armor.There is only one way to go, which is to buy goods from the British and Dutch at a high price.

Imai Zongjiu sighed and said.

"My lord, if you do this, my estimate of [-] guan may rise to [-] or even [-] guan.

Is this also possible? "

Takada Yoshino nodded firmly.

"No problem, I don't worry about what you do, just let it go. All the copper money borrowed from Jingdu Tucang this time is at your disposal."

Imai Zongjiu smiled helplessly, kowtowed to the ground to accept the order.

---

Nearby, waves are rising.

As far away as Shimoeshi Yasuda Castle in Echigo, Yoshihiro Shiba had just received the letter of apology from Yono Takada earlier, and a letter from Terotora Uesugi also came with him.

Takada Yono took the initiative to plead guilty, explaining that she could not fulfill the previous guarantee that [-]% of the goods from Sakai Port would go to the Hokuriku Road, and asked the lord to punish her.

Don't look at her mixing with five people and six people in Sakai Port, being unruly in front of Mitsuhide Akechi and others, her business wisdom and political skills are becoming more and more mature.

But in front of Yoshihiko Shiba, Yoshino Takada always behaved so humble, like a poor maid when she was still in Owari.

As Nizi Shengjiu complained behind his back, he is really a double-faced person who pretends to be so strong in front of the lord that he doesn't even want to lose face.

In recent days, the high-ranking concubines of the Sibo leadership have either been like her, with one thing on the face and another behind the back.Or they dare not expose them, for fear of undermining unity.

Shiba Yoshiyin is still complacent up to this day, feeling that he has arranged everything properly, and the recent concubines have lived up to his trust.

In a sense, he is the blinded fool and the culprit.

In a letter, Takada Yono only said that he was not capable enough to achieve the goal of [-]% share.The previous promise was arrogance and ignorance, and he pleaded guilty to Yoshihiro Shiba.

But Yoshihiro Shiba knew in his heart that it was difficult to expand the Hokuriku Road trade route because of the civil strife in the Notohatake family and the closure of Nanao Port, which hit the confidence of the merchants.

He scoffed at this.

These businessmen seem to be shrewd, but in fact they are just poor people.Their self-righteous conservative route, that is, the Tokaido trade route is almost over.

Not to mention the ambitious Oda Nobunaga doing trouble at the western end of Tokaido, Mikawa's Matsudaira Motoyasu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and Takeda Harunobu who is about to go south to attack the Imagawa family.

The stability of the Tokaido trade route over the years has given merchants a false sense of security.In fact, since last year, the riots in Tokaido have already begun to appear.

Based on Suruga, Yuanjiang, and Sanhe Three Kingdoms, Imagawa Yoshimoto dominated the Tokaido, maintained the Tokaido trade route, and turned the city of Suruga into a wealthy place that is rare in the world.

But what is the Jinchuan family really?The government order does not come out of Junfu City, and the Tokaido business road is still smooth, but it is just the inertial thinking of samurai from all over the place.

Once Takeda Harunobu made a move, and all the samurai came to their senses, who wouldn't want to take a bite of this piece of fat from the Imagawa family?
As the war escalated, Shiba Yoshigin didn't believe that the caravan traveling along the Tokaido would not be skinned and cramped.
