Soku Imai is a fat man with a round face, with a pair of narrow eyes and wide forehead and eyebrows, and his body looks like a barrel.The two chubby big hands are always holding each other, and everyone is smiling when they meet.

At first glance, it looks like Maitreya Buddha in Buddhism, giving people a kind and kind impression.Especially when speaking, the sincerity of the tone and the sincerity of the expression can easily make people feel trustworthy.

Only Dongchuan Yuji saw the shrewdness hidden in his squinted eyes when he saw him for the first time: "Boss Imai, hello! I, Dongchuan Yuji, come to visit."

"Oh, it turns out it's the 'No. [-] military strategist in the shogunate' Master Dongchuan who is known as the 'Fox of Omi'? I am so lucky to be able to see you!" Sojiu Imai seemed to have seen the God of War. Alive, adored extremely.

"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed that my mere name is known to a wealthy businessman like Boss Imai, I'm terrified!" Dongchuan Yuji also acted very special, and he didn't even have the natural style of a samurai for businessmen!Plane Travel Guide 1472

After some hypocritical greetings, the two who realized that the other party was the old fox at the same time asked for food and drinks very affectionately, and walked into the private room of the dormitory alone.

After the food was over and the wine was over for three rounds, Sokyu Imai still never mentioned why Yuji Higashikawa came. It seemed that he had met the idol he had admired all his life, and he chatted about some boring past with enthusiasm like star chasing.

In the end, it was Dong Chuan Yuji who couldn't sit still anymore, and said straight to the point: "I'm sorry, actually I came to visit Boss Imai today, and I want to ask you about some details. I wonder if Boss Imai can enlighten me?"

The round-faced fat man patted his strong chest softly, and said loudly: "Master Dongchuan came here in person, that is a way to respect a villain. If there is a place where a villain can serve, he must never refuse, even if he speaks bluntly." Already!"

"Well, Boss Imai is really straightforward! I'm a little rude. I have to ask such embarrassing things for the first time. It really makes me blush." ​​After Dongchuan Youci punished himself with a glass of wine, he said softly: "This time How Boss Imai met the envoy from the Ming Kingdom, the details are not clear, could Boss Imai please explain in detail?"

Although Soku Imai concealed it very well, Yuji Higashikawa still noticed that the round-faced fat man carefully observed the surrounding air in an instant, and he didn't know what he was looking at.

"Oh... really... I really don't know how to open my mouth! This is the first time I have encountered such a thing in my life, and it's just... ah... the matter starts from the day before yesterday, when the villain happened to have This transaction needs to go to sea..."

Since the opening of the port, Kaicho has been famous all over Japan for its free trade, and it is the most famous commercial port in Kansai.If Hirado-cho represents the prosperity of Japan's foreign trade, then Kai-cho represents the prosperity of domestic commerce.

There are so many merchants coming in and out of Kaido Town every day, even Hirado Town needs to be slightly inferior.However, Hirado-cho is full of foreign businessmen, while most of Kaido-cho are Japanese businessmen.

Sojiu Imai's Cangfu department house is a well-known and well-known large trading company in Kaicho. Its cotton cloth, wood, hemp rope, dyes, sugar and other commodities have almost monopolized half of Kansai's rivers and mountains.

Recently, I heard that there is a big deal in Kagoshima, so I hurried to go by boat to discuss the details of the transaction in person.As a result, I didn't expect that not far from Jiecho, even halfway through Shikoku, I was surrounded by a group of murderous steel giant ships.

"That... I'm sorry, please interrupt first! If I heard correctly, Boss Imai, what you just said was a giant steel ship? Why are there giant steel ships floating in the sea?"

Although Higashikawa Yuji didn't want to interrupt Imai Sokyu's description of the situation, this adjective is too scary.Could it be that these Ming people also stole the teacher and learned the iron-clad ship technology of the Matsuura family?That is a unique technology that is the best in the world!

Imai Sokyu has a very good temper, and he didn't care about Higashikawa Yuji's "interruption" at all, which is very rude behavior in Japan.

"Of course it's a real giant steel ship! However, it's not the iron-clad ship of the Matsuura family. Compared with these giant steel ships, the iron-clad ship of the Matsuura family has also been seen before. It's just a toy."

Sure enough, it was a worthwhile trip?Dongchuan Yuji secretly became vigilant in his heart, and his mood became even more urgent: "I don't know what kind of steel giant ship it is? I'm sorry, please tell Boss Imai in detail!"

"Don't dare, in front of Lord Dongchuan, of course the villain will tell the truth! How should I put it, it is a giant ship like a mountain, the whole body is made of steel, and it reflects in the sun. "Shooting" a dazzling silver light."

"Impossible?" Dongchuan Yuji couldn't figure out how steel could make a sea-going ship even though he was thinking about it. "Maybe the surface is coated with a layer of silver light?" Plane Travel Guide 1472

Under the tremendous shock of the steel sea ship, he even ignored the adjective "mountain" for the hull.But if you think about it, this is just an adjective. Could it be said that it is as huge as a mountain, is it really as huge as a mountain?This is obviously impossible!

Sojiu Imai didn't bother with other things, and directly gestured with his hands: "Of course it's a real steel sea ship. My ship is also a famous big ship in Kaicho. It cost 1700 guan and was built by the famous Kamiya celebrity." They were all the best materials, and the keel even went to Mount Fuji to find it for several months. As a result, the ship sank after being hit lightly by the opponent."

"What? It sank after hitting it? Sunk?" The shock brought to Yuji Dongchuan today was too great.

"Yes, my lord, it was just a light bump, and the villain's Koi Maru was split into two halves from the middle. As for the keel specially recovered from Mount Fuji, it was even shattered on the spot .”

"No...you can't?" Dongchuan Yuji felt as if he had come to another world today, not in Japan.

"Hey..." Sojiu Imai sneered twice, shook his head and said, "Of course! The villain's ship is just a two-masted sea-going ship. , but like a mouse in front of a wild boar! If they hadn't rescued him, maybe the current Sokyu Imai would have sunk at the bottom of the sea long ago."

"Hiss..." The more he listened, the more Yuji Dongchuan felt the shock in his heart beyond words. Today he just wanted to "feel" and "feel" the situation. Now that he thinks about it, he can't think of anything more wise. up.

"If I ask Boss Imai how to fight them, I don't know..."

"I'm sorry, sorry for being outspoken! The villain thinks that the shogunate doesn't have to think about anything, and just follow the instructions of the national teacher honestly. Any other ideas can be thrown away at the bottom of Lake Biwa. "

"Huh? How come..."

"Master Dongchuan, please don't ask any more questions. Believe it or not, it's up to you! That's all the villain said, so I dare not say any more."

Until he went out for a long time after separating from Imai Sokyu, Higashikawa Yuji hadn't completely woke up from the state of trance.Come here today to explore the actual plan, the harvest has long been beyond his imagination.

Now, you just need to think about how to persuade the general, and don't act rashly.Oops, His Royal Highness should have already started a regular meeting, I have to hurry over there!Otherwise, it will definitely be too late.
