Ever since dozens of people from the Kira family entered the Huanhao River outside Sakai Town, Yamaoka Zenjiro's mouth has been wide open. It seemed that everything in Sakai Town would shock him beyond words. A stranger like him
His out-of-this-world appearance soon aroused the ridicule of the businessmen he met. Kira Mansomaru felt that in order to save his only face, it would be better to give him a tactful nod.
"Zenjiro, what would Sakai Town look like?"
"Sakai Town should be a huge town, right?" Yamaoka Zenjiro's eyes were still staring at the rows of buildings not far away, and he didn't even notice how rude he was.
"I know! My father has been there, and there are many large and small towns there!" Takikawa Keijiro immediately jumped out to show off.
"Asshole! Don't interrupt when the host is asking questions!" Zenjiro Yamaoka picked up his bamboo hat and hit him hard. The latter covered his head and ran away with his mouth curled.
"Ah! It's finally healed! Zenjiro's soul has finally returned to his body! Just now, I was very worried that Zenjiro would step out and sink into the water!" Kira Mansomaru looked surprised and suddenly realized, picked up the folding fan and knocked on it.
On his forehead, silently recited a few tantric mantras: "Wake up! Zenjiro! Your father is about to catch up on his horse!"
Watching the funny Kira Mansomaru there, he described how he used to climb trees to pick peaches outside Himemaru's yard in Saijo Castle. He was discovered by the maid and reported to his father. Zenjiro who escaped was chased by his father on horseback.
The glorious history of whipping half of the castle town on the spot, Zenjiro Yamaoka looked embarrassed and helpless, crying: "Uh... Mr. Master!"
"Okay! Let's get in quickly!" As soon as the ship docked, Kira Mansomaru jumped onto the pier and walked into the crowd with brisk steps.
"Ah! Pavilion... Your Highness, please wait for me!"
As Takigawa Keijiro said, Sakai-machi is just the name of a city that is a collection of towns. In this irregular ring-shaped city, it is divided into dozens of towns, large and small, such as Nakano-machi, Homatsu-machi, and Suiroku-machi.
, Kai-cho, Yanagino-cho, Shukuya-cho, Kushiya-cho, Kamimei-cho, Nanhan-cho and other towns with all kinds of weird names.
Only when you enter Sakai Town do you realize how prosperous the cities of medieval Japan really were. It is difficult to appreciate the highest level of medieval Japan's economy in the dilapidated Kyoto Town after experiencing the ravages of the Warring States Period. Unlike the dilapidated Kyoto Town, it is full of ruins and ruins.
With the brand-new courtyard, you have to be careful about your own safety and security when entering Ukyo Ward. This is a truly safe and prosperous city.
When walking in Sakai Town, you will occasionally encounter a group of samurai armed with swords and spears, and wearing military uniforms with two large red characters "Tongxin" printed on them. They usually carry swords and spears and walk among the crowds.
Patrolling back and forth, these people are the public security and law enforcement agency under the jurisdiction of Nawuzhong, called Tongxinzhong.
The composition of the Tongxinzhong is composed of internal elections by the town residents and voting by ronin samurai who have lived in Sakai Town for many years. These people are responsible for maintaining public security in Sakai Town and handling criminal public security cases. For this group of wealthy businessmen, there is nothing better than tranquility and peace.
The trading environment is more worthy of their attention. They are willing to try anything that can maintain the business without interference. This is true for paying "vest money" to Sanhao Changqing, and the same is true for establishing a concentric community.
"I don't think they are very good at all. They just wear the same clothes! It's really rude to be so arrogant! If I were in Saijo Castle, I would give them a good lesson and let them know how to respect …”
"Hey! Zenjiro! They are looking at you, you'd better leave quickly!"
"Oh! Let's go!" Zenjiro Yamaoka fled.
If only Yamaoka Zenjiro was embarrassed just now, now several people are embarrassed together. Except for Kira Mansomaru and Nakajo Hidetaka who can still remain calm, the horseback samurai from Mikawa and the side surnames all have their eyes wide open. Yes, when I saw a group of people gathered around performing sarugaku, I stretched my neck out, wishing I could squeeze in and take a look.
The residents of Sakai Town seem to be accustomed to such people who have never seen the world. Every now and then, there is always a group of old people from the countryside who come to Sakai Town and put on an expression with their mouths wide open and their eyes round. For this kind of country people, People, the residents of Sakai Town are full of pride and pride. Ala is from a big city, so it is better for people from such a small place to stay away from each other.
As a result, the Kira family became unwelcome. They were shunned wherever they went. It was as if they were seeing the god of plague. The stupid horseback samurai didn't know what was going on, so he had to talk to Mikawa. He asked passers-by: "Why are you avoiding me? I don't smell bad! I took a shower the day before yesterday!"
…
Kira Mansomaru decisively chose to take a detour and watch, repeating in his mind: "Tsk, although it looks good, it is definitely weaker than Mirai! What big city can compare with Angel City? Can it compare with Twisting? All of this It’s a floating cloud!”
The power of psychological overcoming methods is infinite. Soon, Kira Manshomaru was confident to meet the cold eyes and disdain. Anyway, you are all scum with a combat power of only five, so I don’t care what you think. When you reach the point where your mouth is wide open, Next to Zenjiro Yamaoka, he whispered: "Don't look at it. I'll let you watch it slowly when I have the chance. We should go!"
Dozens of people with either puzzled or reluctant expressions walked towards Nakanocho, the central business district of Sakai Town. This is not only the center of Sakai Town, but also the most commercially developed area in Sakai Town. The offices of the congregation are located here. Here, many large commercial houses also have their headquarters located in this town. Of course, the destination of this trip, Tennojiya, is also on this street.
Tennojiya is a three-story attic with cornices and cornices that are typical of the Ming Dynasty architectural style. If placed in the Ming Dynasty, it would be at the level of a large restaurant in Shuntianfu. However, in Japan, this is the head office of one of the top large merchants, especially in the It is extremely eye-catching among the piles of low-slung houses. From here, you can also see the wealthy businessman spirit of the Tsuda family from the side.
The Tsuda family was originally the lord of Sakai Nanzhuo near Sakai Town. It was at Sakai Nanzhuang that the first thirty-six Nayashu proposed a union. This place is adjacent to Izumi Province and is a very famous resort. Regardless of the environment or climate, it is not Sakamoto Imperial Palace is the designated resort of the Shogun family.
Because of the unique geographical environment of Sakai Minamiso, it also became a secret point for the Naiya people to discuss things in the next hundred years. Based on this alone, the Tsuda family's position among the Naiya people was unbreakable. With the strong rise of the Tsuda family, it became even more unstoppable. .
Tsuda Sohaku, the previous generation head of the Tsuda family, was a very powerful cultural figure. He studied tea ceremony under Murata Shuguang, and Takeno Shoou was his fellow disciple. He also followed the famous Renge master, the son of the quasi-minister Nakain Tōshun.
Shobai, the Peony Flower of the Outer Thirty-six Song Immortals, learned Renge and received ancient and modern teachings from it. It was also in his hands that the Tsuda family raised its head in Sakai Town.
The Tsuda family business was later passed to Sohaku's eldest son Tsuda Sotatsu. Born in the seventh year of the Ming Dynasty and in his fifties, the head of Tennoji House was also very powerful. As soon as he took over, he set out to expand his own property.
With his father Tsuda Sohaku's influence in singing, he had the opportunity to meet many ministers of Kyoto, and he made great efforts to make friends with ministers in Kyoto and became the most famous Sakai merchant in Kyoto.
