A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

At this time, Naya Sukezaemon had not yet consolidated the Zhuin Ship trade from Japan to Luzon and was proud of the national business community. He is just a small housekeeper, running errands to deliver goods to big customers.

He heard the news and first looked around to check whether his clothes were clean and whether there was any dirt on his face and hair. Then he carefully smoothed his hair. Quickly walking into the house, the two attendants also took the wooden box from Na Wuhuo Man and picked it in together.

After Nawusukezaemon entered the house, he quickly observed the situation in the house from left to right. He saw Koheta sitting at the first seat at the bottom, and he knew that the person in charge must be Yamauchi Yoshiharu.

"Meet His Highness Yamauchi Habayashi (Youkon Guard Major General, whose Tang name is Habayashi Guards Zhonglang General), Yamauchi Dianwu (Zuomatou, this is from Feilong Dianshi in the Tang Dynasty), and Zixiaolu Shiyu (Danzheng Dazhong, this official position In fact, it shouldn’t be called that, the Tang name should be something like the imperial censor) "Sukezaemon has met many ministers in Sakai Town and Kyoto, and he has never eaten pork and has seen pigs running away. He is not a vulgar person from the countryside who has never seen the world. It is a very polite greeting.

"Get up, take out the fully-propelled Nanbaran body and let us watch it." Yamauchi Yoshiharu also briefly looked at the young hand. He had just learned about Sukezaemon's life through Xiaoheita's mouth. , at the age of only twenty years old, he can be sent out to sell goods with thousands of dollars worth of goods. He is definitely not an ordinary person.

Sukezaemon raised his head, glanced at Xiaoheita again, and said hello to Xiaoheita, who also smiled and nodded to him. Sukezaemon became more courageous, opened the wooden box that the attendants had brought in, and took out all the parts of the Nanman's body one by one, including the most important piece of modified Milanese infantry chest plate.

"Is this custom-made? Let's take a look at the waiter Tansei." Yamauchi Yoshikatsu was more curious. He stood up, left his seat, and walked to Sukezaemon. Taking the straw woven with iron hoops (I always want to complain, no matter what the material is, it is called straw fold, it might as well be called skirt armor.) and ordered him to put it on Xiaopingta, looking at the familiar Aji.

There is a huge difference between Nanman's body armor and Nanman's body armor. Nanman's body armor is a complete Western-style plate armor (according to records, there should be only one complete European-style full-body armor in Japan obtained by the Tianzheng Youth Mission to Europe from the Portuguese Governor of Goa. Plate). The Southern Barbarian chest armor mainly means that the chest piece on the chest is an imitation of Western infantry plate armor or the original European chest plate armor. (There are only six genuine pieces of the Nanman Cargo Gear made using the European-made infantry half-chest plate, and they all have names and owners. Koheita’s piece can probably be called the Japanese-made Nanman Cargo Gear.)

Koheita has actually been waiting for this Nanbarite bodysuit for a long time, but after all, it was in ancient times. We now say that the flight from Sakai to Hakata only takes two hours, but now it takes more than ten days to go back and forth from Sakai to Hakata, Kyushu. The entire Seto Inland Sea.

But the wait is still worth it. The Nanman carcass is so strong that even a stray bullet cannot penetrate it, let alone an arrow shot from an ordinary Maruki bow. It is impossible to leave even a mark on this Nanman carcass. . Even the powerful English yew longbow has little effect against plate armor. If you put a layer of silk inside the armor to offset the impact, you will not be afraid of being cut or shot on the battlefield, and your survival coefficient will be greatly increased.

Koheita spent huge sums of money just to maintain stability. After all, most of today's samurai still have to go to the front line in person. Although they may not necessarily participate in hand-to-hand combat, there is actually only one daimyo who can command the central army in battle. Xiaopingtai has been fighting bad wars for several years, and her status has become higher, but she still has to participate in the war.

Soon the dazzling Nanman body parts were all draped on Xiao Pingtai's body, which was quite weighty. And because the armor was completely customized to Heita's figure, even the small parts like the cage hand fit perfectly. This is the advantage of tailor-made clothes. Xiaopingtai is not afraid of growing taller even at his age. If you take good care of them, they can last a lifetime.

According to Koheita's request, other parts of the armor should be in the form of chain mail with more than six interlocking rings to prevent stray arrows. It starts from the neck down and is covered tightly from the chest to the thighs. (There are also independent greaves on the lower legs)

Except for the fact that there is no specially customized pocket, this southern barbarian body really looks very good. (The kabuto was an increasingly popular thing during the Warring States Period. From being simple and unpretentious at the beginning to being unconventional later, it was just for show-off!)

Yamauchi Yoshiharu saw that the clothes worn by Xiaoheita were very good, and he also heard Xiaoheita talk about the various benefits of Nanban crotch, which made him a little moved, "What do you think, Taro?"

But since this person is a big boss after all, he was embarrassed to directly say that he wanted one too, so he first asked Yamauchi Yoshikatsu if he wanted to get one too.

"That's what I meant!" Yamauchi Yoshikatsu agreed readily. How could any samurai refuse such a good armor? He now looks like a picture of Xiaoping Tai. If you weren't 1.45 meters tall and it didn't fit me, who is about 1.6 meters tall, I would have tried this on you.

"How much does a piece of Nanman carcass cost?" Yamauchi Yoshiharu also stood up. He touched the infantry plate armor that could completely prevent the firing of iron cannons from a distance, and asked with slight admiration.

"If you want to have everything customized like Dansho-sama, it will take about seventy kanmon, and it will take at least half a year." Sukezaemon is a businessman after all, and when he talks about business matters, he immediately becomes enlightened. Even his tone became a lot lighter.

"Seventy-Kuanwen, it's not cheap. Anyway, I really like it." Yamauchi Yoshiharu didn't hesitate to spend money on things like weapons and armor, and said he could order one for himself and his son.

"No need, no need. Since His Highness Habayashi and Lord Nomiya need it, how can we ask for more money?" Sukezaemon immediately declined, saying repeatedly that he could give it to Yamauchi Yoshiharu and Yamauchi Yoshikatsu for free.

"You're a little mediocre person, but you have some good plans! Can you make the final decision on the amount of one hundred and forty kanbun?" Yamauchi Yoshiharu became even more interested. One hundred and forty kanbun is a huge sum of money, and he said To put it bluntly, this amount of money was enough to hire people to assassinate Yamauchi Yoshiharu five times. (Nobunaga was once shot and wounded by an iron cannon sniper attack by Zenjubo Sugitani. It is said that the fee for hiring him to assassinate Nobunaga was thirty kanmon of Yongle money.)

"Although a villain can't make the decision, I'm still willing to go back and confiscate all my property to make amends." Sukezaemon replied enthusiastically.

"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Yamauchi Yoshiji laughed.
