241 Temptation*

When talking about the princess's words in the palace, Takeda Nobue was also thinking about it...
"I heard it too, where is Oda-kun?"
"I have good ears and listen more carefully. It seems that Mr. Bai's wife is a princess, and there are many people from the Ming Dynasty Palace around him. Just now General Lei was asking him to borrow the excellent craftsmen in the palace." After Oda None answered very seriously, he said: "A powerful country like the Ming Dynasty, a young man with great power, was given by a third-rank military officer, and was also a royal family. The power in his hands may be..." Oda None had no choice because of his identity.
But Nanbu Kosuke was straightforward: "Perhaps, it's even stronger than all the powers of our entire U-dori combined."
As the few people were talking, the boat had arrived at the berth.
Humen Wharf is divided into three parts. One is the transfer berth, which is to overturn large ships and small boats and start transporting them inland along the waterway. The other is the military business wharf, which is the dock dedicated to the military fleet that is used by Baiminghe for offshore business. The dock is surrounded by the most merchants. This dock is also interlaced with a small berth.
The last place is the special berth for Fu Ship, which is only used for Shenzhen-Hong Kong berths for Fu Ship.
What can be transported by lucky ships is one of huge quantities of goods, two of which are expensive, and three of which are the white cranes that do not intend to be seen by merchants. Therefore, the guards here are the strictest.
After getting off the ship, there were twenty teams of sergeants patrolling with spears around the dock.
"Master Bai, General Lei!" An official from the dock came to show his salute. After the salute, he quickly walked towards the shed on the dock. Takeda Nobue and others saw clearly that the captains on the boat were resting under the shed, saying that it was a rest and a work. There were many clerks there.
Judging from their appearance, they seemed to have received a new task.
The Fu Ship started to dispose of goods, and the flatbed trucks were lined up on the dock, and a door opened on the Fu Ship waterline. Then ten special cars were pushed over, and the wheels were removed after approaching the Fu Ship and placed directly on the ground. Then the long rack was mounted on the Fu Ship and placed on the other end in a huge wooden railing.
Bags of rice were slid off this smooth rack.
From the boat to the dock, it was more than ten feet away, and this pack of rice slid into the wooden bar in a blink of an eye.
Ten packs per car, so fast that the three Japanese guests were so shocked that they opened their mouths. But in a blink of an eye, they figured out how much goods they had, and they just needed to carry them. The Ming Dynasty ship was 30,000 stones. Judging from the size of this bag, one bag was half a stone of rice. Sixty thousand bags were carried by manpower. I don’t know when it would take to carry them.
Bai Minghe held his chest with both hands, and he asked the Japanese to see it.
Only by seeing them with their own eyes can we know how powerful the Ming Dynasty is. Only by shocking them can we continue to talk.
"Loading!" A shout came from nowhere.
The carriage in front of the empty warehouse door was quickly turned into a wheelbarrow and headed down a boat. The other carriage, which was ten feet long and strange, was pushed over.
Soon the shelf unfolded, and it was no longer a slide, but a soft platform of ten feet long with ropes.
Four cows pulled a winch and began to rotate slowly, and then one after another of the chariots were pushed over. This time, it was not empty chariots, but packs of things wrapped in gray numbing.
Bai Minghe just gave a wink, and Zeng Tao immediately arranged for the soldiers to carry three packs and put them in front of the Japanese.
Each large bag contains ten pieces of cloth and snow-white fine linen.
Takeda Nobue's eyes were straight, not because of the quality of the cloth. But when he saw him lined up in a long queue of boards, he didn't know how many such fine white cloths were. This thing could be exchanged for at least ten cents of money on a piece of Japanese island.
The white-famous crane frowned because this one seemed much smaller.
"Has the Xingshou Court revised the standards?"
"If you want to go back to the adults, the standard will not be changed, but this is an order. According to the requirements there, the purchasing power of ordinary people is limited. Therefore, two different batches have been added. One is for the military, and one is changed to two hundred and forty feet. The other is for private purchase. The small one is added, which is forty feet and half a piece of packaging. The width is uniformly four feet!"
After listening to Zeng Tao's explanation, Bai Minghexin said that there is really no need to report this little thing to him.
"Very good. Tell the Shangshou Hospital. Add different packaging portions to each cargo and set standards. Let all merchants strictly follow these standards."
The Baiminghe knew that the thickness of the yarn, the weight of the yarn, the density of the weaving, etc., had strict standards for Xingshouyuan.
"Great Lord Bai, our Takeda family is willing to give you a message. I want to add two types of trading objects. Before the mulberry tree grows, can it be added to the trading methods of gold, silver and copper? And that is, slaves!"
There is no reason for Takeda to mention this slave.
Before he arrived in the Ming Dynasty, there was an external war. The scale was not large, only a few hundred people fighting. But when he caught a thousand slaves, male slaves could work, and also fight. Female slaves were old, ugly, and young and beautiful.
How much value is generated by work? The value of a beautiful maid in the Ming Dynasty is greater than that of a hundred ordinary female slaves in Japan, and even more.
"Yes!" Bai Minghe didn't think too much.
He didn't even know that Japan in this era had the third largest population in the world. The first in the Ming Dynasty, with about 88 million people, and was known as 100 million people. The second was the Sultantian of Delhi, which had just completed the declaration of war, with a population of about 36 million. The third was Japan, which was a little larger, with a population of 16 million.
The war in the Ming Dynasty was an annihilation war, and the casualties must be huge.
The Japanese wars were mostly defeated wars, and they broke up and the enemy fled and they ended.
In this era, according to modern terms, the ratio of men and women of the Japanese has reached a crisis, and stable areas such as Kyoto are still normal. Many wars are numerous and remote and hard. There are 100 women in a village, and there are probably no ten men.
"Sir, please kill the person who is unwilling to kneel in front of you!" Takeda Nobue requested for the second time.
Bai Minghe was stunned for a moment. Seeing that the three Japanese people had almost the same attitude, they felt that they might have discussed something privately.
Takeda Nobue is definitely a cruel man: "Sir, when we go back, we will tell everyone that many ships have sunk and sank. Our Takeda family retainers are loyal and they will not talk nonsense."
Bai Minghe smiled: "Very good, I will arrange a fleet of ships again. Any ship without your permission will be sunk by the wind and waves!" Bai Minghe deliberately bit the word Feng waves and accent.
Nanbu Xiangsuke also asked: "Please allow us to recommend a few more people. The three-go family's legitimate son is also in the camp. The three-go family must be willing to cooperate with the adults."
Bai Minghe did not speak immediately, but looked at the three of them.
After five minutes of silence, Bai Minghe spoke: "Give you three days, and life and death will be decided in your hands in three days. I will provide enough weapons and troops." Bai Minghe thought a lot, and he also needed sincerity.
Takeda Nobue is very bachelor: "Sir, Takeda Nobue is willing to offer the heads of Ashikaga's retainers!"
"Okay!" Bai Minghe felt so happy.
I am not afraid that you have no ambitions, but I am afraid that you have insufficient ambitions. "Every family, ten thousand kilograms of steel are my gifts, and you don't need to exchange them. Next, even if you can provide a lot of supplies, I will send a big ship to the Japanese island..." Bai Minghe thought for a while and asked, "Please choose a landing place!"
"Izu!" Nanbu Kosuke said, "The sixth generation head of the Takeda family, the tenth generation head of the family, the twelfth generation head of the family, the twelfth generation head of the family, the 10th generation head of the family, the twelfth generation head of the family, the 10th generation head of the family, the twelfth generation head of the family, both of them were guarding Izu. They had a very deep power in Izu. The current head of the Izu Hojo Hojo married Nobuyo's sister, and Nobuyo's wife was also the sister of Hojo."
"These specific things are based on your arrangements." Bai Minghe did not continue the topic like this.
"After three days, you will make a list. As long as you have enough exchanges, I will give you enough supplies. Even my Fire Order of the Ming Dynasty. But one year later, I will have requirements for the number of raw silk every year. The demand for raw silk in the Ming Dynasty is huge. Only when each person in the Ming Dynasty wears a piece of silk clothes, it will take fifteen years of raw silk accumulation."
"Hayi!"
After sending away the three Japanese heads, Bai Minghe leaned on the soft chair and breathed a long sigh.
"Sir!" Zeng Tao arranged for the three of them to board the boat and returned to Baiminghe.
"Tell the news to several adults, and then start making plans. Select a few excellent operators and form a staff officer to target the Japanese island. My final goal is that if the Japanese island does not have my food in fifteen years, more than half of them will starve to death. Our Ming Dynasty's firearms unit must be able to easily defeat the Japanese cold weapons unit with one to ten."
Bai Minghe spoke very slowly, and even in his tone, even a scholar like Zeng Tao could hear endless murderous intent.
Zeng Tao knelt on both knees and kowtowed heavily: "Students will do their best to help adults complete this plan, and their great achievements will be passed down through the ages."
At night, Zeng Tao stood with his hands down in the villa of Zhan'ao Island.
Yu Qian, Jieji, Yang Neng, Yang Shan, Deng Hailong, Mao Sheng, Liu Mingxuan and more than a dozen others were taking turns reading Zeng Tao’s handwritten book, Bai Minghe’s fifteen-year plan for the Japanese island. This is just a rough outline, and it has not yet reached the detailed plan for every step of the year.
Yu Qian, who had been closing his eyes, finally reacted, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and said softly: "The fangs of the white-known crane have finally been revealed. I thought the white-known crane was full of murderous intentions for the little Luzon, but compared to those of the Japanese." Yu Qian put down the teacup and said word by word: "The white-known crane is really kind!"
"The old Bai family has a grudge against the Japanese?" Mao Sheng couldn't understand why Bai Minghe attacked the Japanese so fiercely.
Jie Ji asked Deng Hailong at this time: "General Deng, what have you talked to Xiaobai?"
Chapter completed!
