Chapter 143: He is the black hand behind the scenes!
Gao Xianda enjoyed this process very much. From beginning to end, he never stayed away from it.』』『Tianlai Novels ww『w.
2 It can even be said that the conflict between Kinoshita Tenkiro and Matsuhira Motoyashi was facilitated by him.
And he is also the only beneficiary of this struggle.
Things have to be poured back a little.
Gao Xianda led Quan Goro to destroy the bandit leader, captured his stronghold, and recruited some of his subordinates and robbed his vault.
Gao Xianda obtained a task called wealthy and a country. He asked him to accumulate a million fortune.
In the vault led by the bandits, a large number of artworks, including tea utensils, books and calligraphy and paintings. These were all unidentified things, and Susaka Zaemon believed that these things could be worth 500,000 jin. In other words, Gao Xianda had already completed half of the task.
So Gao Xianda sent the surrendered bandits to follow Suezuemon to escort these works of art to Kyoto first.
But after Suspension Zaemon left, the more Gao Xianda thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
Logically speaking, this task also has a progress bar. Gao Xianda now has some money on hand, and the small amount of gold, silver and treasures in the bandits' vault were all calculated.
However, these artworks have no progress in his hands. In other words, in the eyes of the system, these artworks are worthless.
In other words, if these works of art can be exchanged for money, the bandit leader has already accumulated so much treasure, why not exchange them for money first, but keep them in Curry?
Especially in the warehouse of the bandit leader, there are not many truly valuable things.
Gao Xianda did not believe that the caravans traveling to and from Sanhe did not transport all kinds of gold, silver and treasures, but only transported antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
So the only explanation is that the bandit leader spent all the treasures he received, but no one wanted these antique calligraphy and paintings.
So Gao Xianda believes that Susai Zaemon is likely to be able to exchange these antiques, calligraphy and paintings for a wealth of 500,000 yuan. Even if he can exchange for 50,000 yuan, it must be considered his ability.
But 50,000 jin is already a lot.
Gao Xianda’s three valuable products are worth 1,000 guan. Such a large piece of ambergris may only be sold for 10,000 guan.
If you don’t consider the task, Gao Xianda will still be considered wealth.
But considering the task, it was not that easy, so Gao Xianda turned his attention to Okazaki Castle.
If the bandit leader wants to survive, he must have given enough wealth to the old ministers in Sanhe. It is impossible for them to have only antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
Just so happened that after several days of investigation, Tokiro Kinoshita found several samurai in Okazaki Castle. Their daily consumption was not proportional to their income.
So Gao Xianda spent some thoughts and conducted some investigations to confirm that Shimasaki Ishikawa was the richest one and a warehouse full of treasures.
But Gao Xianda had no way to search the others directly.
Although Tokiro Kinishi is the special envoy of the Imakawa family, this place is Okazaki Castle after all, and it is someone else's territory. He dare not be too presumptuous.
He went to Ishikawa's house several times. Although he was very polite, he had no intention of inviting him to the inner courtyard. He just drank some tea in the living room and showed him the account book.
Even if Gao Xianda wants to forcefully search for Ishikawa's house, he will probably be resisted by the entire Okazaki Castle. At that time, the old ministers of Mikawa who have seen clearly the strength of the Imakawa family will probably take the opportunity to resist.
Although Gao Xianda has great confidence in suppressing the rebellion, his limited energy cannot be wasted on such things.
The only one who can check Ishikawa's Matsuhira Motoyaki is probably Matsuhira. He is the young master of the Matsuhira family and the ideal successor of Okazaki Castle. Although he did not come back, the retainers' hearts are inclined to him.
But Gao Xianda couldn't directly order Matsuhei Motokaku to investigate Ishikawa Shumasaki. After all, Ishikawa Shumasaki is an old minister of the Matsuhei family. Matsuhei Motokaku may not be willing to offend him.
Even if Matsuhei Motoyasu followed the knowledge of the head of the family and went to investigate Ishikawa Shumasato, he could notify Ishikawa Shumasato in advance and let him transfer his treasure.
In that case, it will be meaningless.
So Gao Xianda can only find another way.
Not all the bandits under the bandits led by the bandits to go to Kyo with Susakamon. There were a few samurai who were self-reliant to beg for them, even if Gao Xianda came to ask them, he would not be willing to act as bodyguards for merchants.
The bandits who refuse to surrender are naturally the enemy. Gao Xianda originally wanted to eliminate the roots.
But Gao Xianda also respects their personal wishes and says that if they are willing to help, they can leave on their own after the matter is completed and provide them with some travel expenses and living expenses.
These bandits heard that although this business was dangerous, they just had to escape, so they agreed.
Gao Xianda also disguised himself as a bandit and blocked Matsuhei Motokara on the official road.
Nishigu had strong reconnaissance ability and good eyesight. From a distance, he saw Matsuhei Motoyaki and more than a dozen people leaving the team and coming here.
Gao Xianda thought to himself: "God helps me."
So after Matsuhei Motokara arrived, Gao Xianda recited a popular robbery rumor in China.
Unfortunately, traditional Japanese bandits did not know this. So Gao Xianda explained for a long time and even beat Matsuhira Motoyaku's subordinates, which made them realize that this was a robbery.
As for the masked man who shot Matsuhei Motokara's horse with an arrow and pulled the team to fight and escape, it was Gao Xianda.
After entering Okazaki Castle, Gao Xianda ordered everyone to hide. Gao Xianda brought Matsuhira Motoyaki to Ishikawa's mansion like flying a kite.
From archery to mockery, Gao Xianda cheered Matsuhira Motokaku. So Matsuhira Motokaku was also very angry when he saw Shikawa Shishi. So in the end, Matsuhira Motokaku appeared in Shikawa Shishishira's small vault.
Gao Xianda took advantage of the fact that the warrior in the small vault ran to Matsuhei Motokara to report, and put the bandit-style clothing prepared in advance in his bag inside. Then he turned on the escape dagger and teleported it out.
So much so that Ishikawa Shumaki first swears, but then was forced to slap in the face. Anyway, he drank a basin of dirty water.
As for Kinoshita Tenkiro's visit, it was also arranged by Gao Xianda.
Gao Xianda doesn't need to deliberately guide him, just tell Kinoshita Tenkiro and take all the information about Ishikawa Shumasato.
Tenkiro Kinisha had hit a wall in Ishikawa Shumao before, and the information was very difficult. This time, with Gao Xianda's support, he naturally rushed in with a swagger.
According to the principle of not getting along without fighting, Gao Xianda is actually closer to Fengta than to Tenghiro Kinoshita.
Gao Xianda specifically instructed Feng Tai to prepare a larger car when going there.
