Chapter Eleven I Want Nothing But Silver
Chapter 11 I have nothing to ask for except for silver
"General, I am here with sincerity this time!"
Hattori Ishimoto was angry, and the samurai in the hall also glared at him, as if he would break him up as long as he dared to say another word.
Even so, Hattori Mimoto still straightened his upper body, as if he was very sure that Yun Ao would continue to ask questions.
Although this trick is very ordinary, Yun Zhao asked: "What kind of sincerity is it?"
Hattori Ishi was guilty of leaving, and after a while, he carried two square boxes back to the main hall.
Unlocked the outer skin and pushed the box forward: "Please look at it."
The guard opened the box and said to Yun Zhao: "Young Master, there are two heads."
Yun Zhao sighed. He didn't know what happened recently, and someone always gave him a head to see.
I glanced at the head in the box and found that it was the head of a woman and a boy. The bun on the head was neatly combed, and my eyes were closed, which looked very quiet. The two heads were cut off for a long time, slightly dehydrated and dry.
The heads sent by Zheng Zhibao a few days ago were from Zheng Zhibao. Yun Zhao thought about it for a moment and knew that these two heads should also belong to the Zheng clan.
"This is the evil seed that Zheng Zhilong stayed in our country."
Yun Zhao nodded when he heard this and turned his eyes to his own guards.
Yun Da walked forward and said, "Young Master, this pair of people has been cut off for at least ten months."
Hattori Ishimi Mimori exclaimed: "It turns out that they are experts. These two heads were indeed put into the box ten months ago."
Yun Zhao frowned and said, "So, you General Tokugawa decided to drive away all foreign forces at least ten months ago, right? Why, it's not going well?"
Hattori Ishimoto said, "No matter how much the price is paid, the general must unify Fusang and the Fusang land, and no outsiders can be involved."
Yun Zhao smiled and said, "You killed Zheng Jing's brothers and his Fusang mother, this is not difficult for you!"
Hattori Ishimimao said: "The meaning of these two heads is more than that. Fusang needs to maintain trade relations with Lantian. General Tokugawa uses these two heads to assure the general that Lantian can replace Zheng's trade share in our Fusang."
After hearing this guy say this, the frost on Yun Zhao's face disappeared suddenly and he said to Zhu Cunji: "Please take your seat by Mr. Hattori."
Zhu Cunji immediately ordered the guards to carry a shorter table and a cushion, and also served tea.
Hattori Ishimi Moriya sat behind the short table, picked up the tea and took a sip and said, "Good tea!"
Yun Zhao pretended not to understand the irony in his words and continued: "I heard that Zheng's business in Fusang is very big, but I don't know what good business they have?"
"Under normal circumstances, the goods transported by Zheng to Fusang are yellow and white silk, various fabrics, as well as raw medicines such as wild yam. I wonder what materials will the general sell to Fusang after taking over Zheng's commerce?"
Yun Zhao and Zhu Cunji looked at each other, and Zhu Cunji said, "I wonder Mr. Hattori, what kind of transactions do Lantian and Fusang do?"
"Steel!"
Hattori said it firmly.
Zhu Cun said in great difficulty: "This thing is transported to Fusang? Mr. Hattori, have you considered a long journey? Steel is not a valuable item in Lantian, but when you transport it to Fusang thousands of miles away, I am afraid...
Hattori's eyes suddenly widened, he stood up and hurriedly asked Yun Zhao to confirm: "Is that OK? Is it really OK? General?"
Yun Zhao smiled and said, "I prefer money! Do you have any other requirements?"
Hattori laughed and said, "It's really a pleasure to do business with the general."
Yun Zhao smiled and said, "I have the same feeling, Hattori, I agree to all your requests. So, should you agree to my conditions?"
Hattori looked at Yun Zhao's aggressive eyes and sat down and bowed, "Please tell me the general."
Yunao looked at Hattori's eyes and said, "I have only two requirements, you can choose one."
Hattori licked his lips nervously.
"First, all the materials sold to you are settled in silver, and they are settled at your Fuso silver price."
Hattori frowned and said, "Why can't it be settled at the Ming Dynasty silver price?"
Yun Zhao sneered and said, "What do you think?"
Hattori bowed and said, "I am willing to listen to the general's second suggestion."
Yun Zhao said indifferently: "I heard that General Tokugawa took back Ishimi Ginshan from the Maori family. If General Tokugawa wants to obtain these goods from Lantian for a long time, he will take Ishimi Ginshan out and let me control it for ten years."
Hattori was startled and jumped up from the ground and said, "This is impossible!"
In the Warring States Period that had just passed, in Japan, whoever controls Shijian Yinshan will dominate the world.
In the war for Ishimi Ginyama, the Maori family struggled to win.
Afterwards, the Maori family used the silver they had imported a large amount of military equipment to rule the Chinese region of Japan in one fell swoop and became the largest prince of Western Japan. During this period, the combs were played, and ammunition was obtained by trading with the Southern Barbarians with silver.
Oda Nobunaga wanted to seize Ishimi Yinshan, but he died before he could do it.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi also wanted to obtain Ishimi Ginyama, but was cleverly ruling by the Maori family, at the cost of providing considerable funding for Toyotomi Hideyoshi's invasion of North Korea.
Finally, it was the era of Tokugawa Ieyasu. The world situation was decided. The Maori family, the main force of the anti-Tokugawa Ieyasu alliance, handed over the silver mountain. After the territory was reduced, it was able to continue the family blood as a vassal state.
It can be said that the production of Ishimi Gin Mountain, which is as huge as one million taels of silver every year, has become an important source of wealth for the Tokugawa family. How can we give up?
Yun Zhao nodded and said, "That's what I said, then follow the first one."
Hattori said angrily: "In this way, Fusang will pay twice as much silver for these goods."
Yun Zhao smiled and said, "Who else do you think besides me, will sell you the best steel, the best gunpowder, the best musket, and cannons?"
The Portuguese cannot, the Dutch cannot, nor the Spanish cannot. As for the British, they do not have this strength yet.
Hattori, General Tokugawa is a far-sighted and lofty person. I believe that what he considers will be different from what you consider.
You are just a small person.
Previously, you wanted to exchange your Fuso warrior's life for some equipment, but you didn't think about it. Even if I agree, how many of your Fuso warriors can be left after the war?
It is no exaggeration to say that you are short-sighted.
The world is now on the prey of the weak.
Whether it was the Dutch, Portuguese, Spanish, British, and French, they all began to manage the world.
My Ming Dynasty is about to enter a new era. After I pacify the world, we will also join the team that manages the world. At that time, when strong enemies are around you, how can you handle yourself?
If I cannot become stronger in a short period of time, I think Tokugawa Iemitsu will probably become the last shogun in Fuso Country!
You Fusang want to become stronger, this is your last chance. When I pacify the world, even if you want to give Shi Jian Yinshan to me, I may not be satisfied.
