different warring states of japan

Chapter 689 Business in Sakai Port

There was a turmoil in the Guanyin Temple City in the Liujiao family.

Rokkaku Yoshiharu slaughtered Goto Kentoyo and her eldest daughter, and the Rokkaku vassals could not accept the wayward lord, and expelled the Rokkaku mother and daughter.

In the west, Miyoshi Changqing died.Before dying of illness, he was so confused that he forced Anzhai Dongkang to commit seppuku.

The Shikoku faction headed by Miyoshi Yoshitsugu and the nearly several factions headed by the Miyoshi Trio broke completely, and Miyoshi's family was in chaos.

Threats to the east and west of Kyoto were lifted.Ashikaga Yoshiki held Sakamoto Castle and Nijo Castle tightly again, and almost completely took over the financial and military power of the shogunate.

As this ebbs and flows, Ashikaga Yoshiki's voice becomes louder and louder.

How many things Shibo Yoshihiro has done are out of line?Do you really want to use the rules of the Wu family as an example, and wait until today to be scolded?
At the beginning, the Imperial Palace was a little suppressed, and Takata Yukino was killed in the Imperial Palace, blood spattered five steps.

Ashikaga Yoshiki wanted to take advantage of Shibo Yoshigin with this, what was his reaction?Armed to the teeth, the Concentric Congregation directly blocked the gate of the Imperial Palace and came to negotiate with General Ashikaga.

Ashikaga Yoshiki is known as the swordsman general and has a strong affection for the public, but she just doesn't dare to tear herself apart with Shiba Yoshigin, Kenshin is really strong.

The Shiba family was wiped out, and Shiba Yoshigin rebuilt a new Shiba family with each hand. Is this something that humans can do?
The Ashikaga Army God was not boasted by Shibo Yoshigin himself, it was unanimously recognized by nearly all samurai, and he was tough with him only when his brain was broken.

Ashikaga Yoshiki dared to yell at Shiba's family now, spit on Mitsuhide Akechi's face.

On the one hand, Shiba Yoshiyin is not around, and on the other hand, he feels that the time is ripe and wants to put his hand into the plate of the powerful local faction of the shogunate.

The two pillars of the shogunate, the shogunate and the local power faction.

The shogunate is the Ashikaga retainer, the samurai family under the command of the shogunate.They occupy the Yamashiro country and its surrounding territories, and have lived with Kyoto as the center for more than a hundred years.

Ashikaga Yoshiki controls the logistics of Nijo Castle with one hand, and can use five hundred Lima back at any time to suppress Yamashiro State by force.

We hold Sakamoto Castle with the other hand and monitor the Seta River waterway from Lake Biwa to Kyoto.In addition, Toba Fushimi, where the Ashikaga Muslims were originally stationed, can monitor the water transportation in the southern suburbs of Kyoto.

She controls the commercial logistics in Kyoto, which the vassals rely on for survival, into her own hands.With one hand of soldiers and one hand of money, the faction of ministers can no longer stir up troubles, and the Ise Zhenjiao has been put on the back burner.

The foreign enemies of the shogunate, the Liujiao Miyoshi family, both declined due to civil strife.Ashikaga Yoshiki, who was devoted to revitalizing the Ashikaga family, of course turned his attention to the Shiba family, who controlled the local powerful faction of the shogunate.

She has one thing on her mind, which is the nursery rhyme that Shiba's important ministers are not married.

If Yoshihiro Shiba is in the near future, many things can be discussed slowly.But he was far away in Echigo and refused to come back, so don't blame the general for being violent and not giving the Siba family face.

Akechi Mitsuhide was not afraid of the general's suppression, and even expected her to be more ruthless.

If Ashikaga Yoshiki doesn't do everything right, what will she give in exchange for trust?Hook up with the Miyoshi family, the Liujiao family, and the Ise family, and do such appalling treasonous things.

Sakai Port, Shinsengumi resident.

Takada Yono sighed, threw the information in his hand to Imai Sohisa, and said.

"Miyoshi Changqing is dead."

"what!"

Imai Zongjiu turned pale with shock, glanced at the information, and then said with lingering fear.

"Sakai Port is in danger."

Information from the Shiba family is always faster than news from the merchants.

Miyoshi's family is still arguing internally, and the news of the governor's death is kept secret.The shogunate had already found out the news, so of course the Shiba family knew about it.

The news should spread all over Sakai Port soon.

Even if the Shiba family kept quiet, those vassals in Kyoto who were inextricably linked to the merchants would reveal it.

Takada Yono said.

"Sanhao Changqing died a little early, and our plan needs to be accelerated."

Imai Zongjiu wondered.

"We just borrowed a sum of money from the earth warehouse and have not yet returned it, how to proceed?

If you borrow too urgently, I'm afraid they will find something wrong and refuse to enter the urn. "

Gao Tianyang said helplessly.

"Miyoshi Changqing died, and the civil strife in Miyoshi's family can no longer be suppressed.

The Sakai Port Customs Office is the head of the Miyoshi family's business interests, and the succeeding Miyoshi Yoshitsugu would not allow such an important stronghold to be controlled by the Miyoshi trio.

I believe that in the near future, Shikoku Miyoshi will send people to manage Sakai Port.

However, it is Miyoshi Masayasu who is in control of the Sakai Port Customs Office. Will she agree?

Even if the conflict between the two sides is not resolved by sword, Shiba Shinsengumi's special status in Sakai Port will disappear.

Miyoshi Changqing passed away, and the relationship between Miyoshi's family and the shogunate doesn't know how to deal with it. They still worry about me, a little merchant?
I robbed Tsuda Zongji's warehouse before and threatened her to give in.

Tsuda Zongji had a good relationship with Miyoshi Zhengyasu and gave so much protection money.Miyoshi Masayasu was busy with infighting at that time, and he didn't support her because of the scruples of the shogunate's reaction, but he must be angry in his heart.

Now that the two sides of the Miyoshi family are fighting in Sakai Port, will Miyoshi Masayasu take the opportunity to sweep me, a little pawn, in and clean it up?

It can't be delayed, we must drag those earth warehouse stewards into the water as soon as possible, otherwise we will not be able to protect ourselves. "

Imai Zongji thought for a while and said.

"Recently, a series of merchants in the Tokaido are fighting back, and they have also begun to subsidize the caravans traveling on the Tokaido.

Let's just make a big deal out of it and fight a business war with them.In this way, there is a reason to continue to borrow money, and the steward of the earth warehouse will believe it. "

Takada Yono said with a smile.

"not enough.

You also have to put on a desperate appearance, pretending to obey the will of the Shiba family, and must win this business war.

Not only do they need to borrow money, but they also need to convert the Hokuriku Road trade route into shares and pledge it to Tucang.

The Shiba family can give Tucang steward a little sweetness and borrow one thousand guan, but we will only take nine hundred guan. "

Imai Sokyu was sweating on his head, Takada Yono really wanted those warehouse stewards to die.

The wages of avarice is death.

The Shiba family wrote an IOU for [-] kan, but only took [-] kan, so the remaining [-] kan would evaporate from the account of the warehouse.

The steward of the earth warehouse has such a great benefit to take, so of course he will borrow as much as he wants.It's just that after the incident is exposed, the whole family will definitely die.

Takada Yono will even expose this matter in advance in order to increase his own umbrella.

Let the forces behind those warehouses know that all their money has been invested in the Hokuriku Road trade route, and it is locked in the shares and cannot be withdrawn.

Money has become a road, what can they do?Of course, it is to guard this golden road so that it does not die, and earn back slowly.

With the protection of these forces, Takada Yono was not afraid of Miyoshi Masayasu's revenge.But those greedy earth warehouse stewards will inevitably end up copying their families and exterminating their clans.

However, the Shiba family also suffered a lot in this matter.The Hokuriku Road trade route is an inexhaustible gold mine, and now it has been converted into shares and scattered pledges, and most of the proceeds have to be repaid.

Imai Sojiu couldn't help but wonder, would Shiba's retainers allow Takada Yono to act like this?
