"That's what happened. I bought this horse from an Owari man yesterday and sold it to you, Mr. Hu. But at that time, I wondered how these BMWs could be resold so easily, so I followed him again.
I came up to ask about the situation, but happened to encounter a fight between several people. It seemed that the horse was tricked by Mr. Shinagawa from Mr. Shinagawa. When Mr. Shinagawa's attendant saw the horse, he wanted to take it back, but was stopped by Mr. Dahu.
The disciple mistakenly thought he was a horse thief, and a fight broke out."
In the inn, the businessman who had just stopped two groups of people explained to everyone. For some reason, Mr. Imagawa Shimoto felt that this businessman looked very familiar, and he felt some inexplicable closeness to him.
"I see, I made the mistake of blaming Mr. Shinagawa, and I almost killed him." After hearing the whole story, Da Hu Xiutsuna bowed and apologized very apologetically.
"Lord Hu, you don't have to be like this. It was my attendant who was too reckless and directly grabbed the horse, which caused misunderstanding between the two parties." Imagawa Ujimoto shook his head and explained while holding a folding fan to fan the wind.
"In the final analysis, it was my fault as a disciple. After all, he was the one who made the first move." Hu Xiugang looked at the apologetic one-armed disciple behind him and ordered sternly, "Kentaro, come here and apologize to these guys."
"Kentaro Shimoda was so reckless that he almost caused a disaster. I apologize to you all." Kentaro Shimoda knelt on his knees and bowed to Imagawa Ujimoto and Nakasugi Tora Chiyo very sincerely.
"It's okay. It's okay if you're okay. If you want to apologize, you should also apologize to the store owner." Imagawa Shimoto looked at the shop that was smashed beyond recognition and the empty lobby - most of the customers who were scared away just now
He hasn't even paid yet. So, he took out a few taels of silver from his pocket and without any explanation put it into the hands of the boss who was standing by tremblingly. "I'm sorry for causing you any trouble."
"Shinagawa-sama is a good samurai. He would rather be deceived than to prevent father and son from seeing each other for the last time because of his own suspicions. He is still thinking about the people when he encounters such troubles." Dahu Xietsuna seemed to be very impressed by Imagawa Ujimoto's performance.
, "My martial arts and conversation skills are all top-notch, and I am definitely not a man in the pool. I wish you success and fame as soon as possible."
"Lord Hu is so complimentary."
"Although my disciple is physically handicapped and has some shortcomings in actual combat, he has practiced hard and I have taught him almost all of my swordsmanship. I have the qualifications to pass it on to everyone." Hu Xiugang glanced at Kentaro Tian Shen and said,
He signaled him to bow to Imagawa Shimoto again.
"If Shinagawa-sama doesn't mind, I hope he can stay with you and practice. I think your swordsmanship is quite spiritual, but it still lacks some firepower. I am not talented, and I think my swordsmanship can be of benefit to you.
Therefore, I want him to be presumptuous and give some advice to the adults. It can also be regarded as asking him to apologize for his recklessness."
"Master has a destiny, and disciples must obey it." After Kentaro Tian Shen bowed to Dahu Xiutsuna, he also bowed to Imagawa Ujimoto, "Please take me under your wing, Lord Shinagawa."
"Of course I don't want to be a disciple of a swordsman. I just want to trouble Mr. Hu to give up his love. It's really..." Imagawa Shiyuan politely declined.
"You can do me a favor. This child is deeply involved in family disputes. Although he is the eldest son, he is a twin, which is regarded as an ominous sign. Considering that he was born with a defect and his younger brother is healthy, the family will
He abandoned him. But now his brother is too strong, causing dissatisfaction in the family, and some retainers want to support Kentaro to return and succeed him. I was worried that if he went back, he might be killed, so I took him out to practice, but he was still targeted by his family's ninjas.
If he can be allowed to fly away with Lord Shinagawa, his family will no longer pursue him." Dahu Xiuzuna explained earnestly, and then sighed, "Please make it happen, Lord Shinagawa."
"No problem, leave it to me." After hearing this, Imagawa Shimoto no longer hesitated, but decisively agreed.
"I still have an appointment to go to Yamato, so I'll excuse you now. Thank you Shinagawa-sama." After seeing Imagawa Ujimoto's promise, Ohu Hidetsuna, who was heartbroken, bowed his hands and turned to leave. Imagawa Ujimoto stood up and sent him to the
At the door, wave goodbye.
After Imagawa Ujimoto came back, the businessman smiled and joked: "This Shinagawa-sama is quite interesting. When Lord Dahu said that his apprentice's swordsmanship was superb, you were unmoved. On the contrary, you heard that he might attract enemies.
After taking revenge, you generously agreed to take him in. Are you really not afraid of causing trouble?"
"Ha, merchants and samurai naturally see and think differently." Imagawa Shimoto said with a smile.
"A samurai and a samurai are different." Nakasugi Tora Chiyo complained angrily, "How many samurai can lend a BMW to a stranger?"
"Aren't you afraid that father and son won't see each other for the last time? It's a kindness, but who knows it's a lie?" Imagawa Shimoto himself was very annoyed and slapped his fan several times. Miao Miao on Ginkgo's shoulder also felt Imagawa Shimoto's reaction.
He was so angry that he breathed a fierce "ha", as if venting his anger for Imagawa Shigen.
"In troubled times, it's better to throw away goodwill as early as possible, otherwise you will suffer losses sooner or later. Mr. Shinagawa seems to have a lot of wealth, and this hundred-dollar BMW is probably not enough for you to remember. You will suffer big losses in the future, and you will change it.
Isn't it wrong?" The businessman mocked Imagawa Shimoto with a smile.
"If you don't do business without treachery, how can a merchant dare to talk about 'good intentions'?" Ginkgo saw that the merchant mentioned Imagawa Shimoto's most sensitive pain recently, so she stood up to protect Imagawa Shimoto and said, "It's really ridiculous."
"What this lady said is wrong. Before I became a merchant, I was full of good intentions." The merchant glanced at Ginkgo, and then stared at Imagawa Gendo.
"Then boss, what kind of mistakes did you make to throw away your goodwill?" Imagawa Ujimoto raised his eyes and looked at the businessman.
"What a coincidence, just like Mr. Shinagawa, I was afraid that other people would not be able to see their father and son for the last time." The businessman smiled bitterly, raised his head and recalled the sad past, "I was also the lord of a city back then, and inherited my father's family business. Although
He was not a powerful man, but he lived a good life. There was a famous neighbor nearby. Although he was full of evil and misdeeds, he liked Liange and had the same interests as me. I was just in my early 10s at the time, and I was not wary of him.
We often communicate with each other, visit each other's houses, and hold singing parties."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "But the summer four years ago, haha..." When he came to the key to the story, the businessman suddenly sneered, and his expression became sarcastic and ferocious, "He
I suddenly fainted while holding a singing party in my city, and then fell ill. I searched all the doctors in the city and couldn't find out the cause. It's ridiculous to think about it now. How could I find out the cause by pretending to be sick? But I didn't at that time
I know, I’m just worried about this close friend’s condition and I’m busy up and down.”
"Two days later, he said that he was dying and wanted to see his son for the last time, so he asked me to invite his son over. I had no doubt that he was there, so I sent someone to invite him in a hurry. That night, his son hurried over to my house with hundreds of retainers.
The retainers in the city felt that it was already dark and it was difficult to let so many people into the city, so they negotiated with them at the city gate. But I saw that my friend's condition was getting worse, and I was afraid that the father and son would not see each other for the last time, so I ordered my subordinates to open the door.
The city will let you go."
"Who would have thought that they would get into trouble as soon as they entered the city, and my friend who was seriously ill also jumped out of bed and burned my castle tower directly. The city was in chaos, and the army of that family also took advantage of the situation to attack the city, and they cooperated inside and outside.
As a result, my entire army was destroyed and I only escaped with my life. I relied on my connections to escape to Kinki and started a small business. After suffering a big loss, I naturally threw my good intentions into the shithole."
"I'm sorry to hear your story." Mr. Imagawa sighed. The experience of the businessman in front of him was obviously much worse than his.
"So, goodwill is a weakness, and if people take advantage of it, it will be doomed. If the Wu family wants to survive in troubled times, the only way is to destroy goodwill." The businessman weakly patted the table, laughed and shook his head.
"No, I think kindness is different from other weaknesses." Imagawa Shimoto became serious, and he showed a rare expression of hatred for the always gentle man, "Whether it's greed, lust, or decadence, these are easy.
The weaknesses that are exploited are often caused by people indulging their own desires, which is the root of human nature. But goodwill is different. It is not caused by indulgence, but is the result of self-denial, and it is a noble quality worthy of appreciation."
"Although it is wrong to exploit other people's greed, lust and other weaknesses for profit, it is acceptable. After all, these weaknesses are indeed difficult to overcome. It is most shameful to exploit other people's goodwill for profit. Because those young people don't understand that goodwill
It's not that those good people have irreparable weaknesses, it's just that they are pursuing noble pursuits and are unwilling to join in the evil. It's not that they can't give up their good intentions, but they are unwilling to do it. If it's really worse than being dirty, who is inferior to the other? If those people
If a good person who is calculating is really determined to do evil, it is still unclear who is planning who. Such bullying of good intentions will only lead to a deterioration of the world and people's hearts."
"The words of a scholar." Nakasugi Tora Chiyo briefly set the tone for Imagawa Ujimoto's long speech, "Goro, it seems that you are being protected too cleanly, and you can't see any dirt. In troubled times, sooner or later something will happen.
The one who suffers."
"There's nothing we can do about it." Imagawa clan sighed and looked at the blue sky outside the house, as if he could see Taiyuan Xuezhai's obedient appearance as he taught himself the right way to behave in the world every day when he was a child, "That's how I am.
people."
"Okay." The businessman stood up to leave with some disappointment, "I'm not talking about speculation."
"Bon voyage." Although Imagawa Ujimoto was not interested in the merchant's words, he was the benefactor who saved his life after all, so he was very polite. He also stood up and sent the merchant to the door.
"It's time to meet you later, Shinagawa-sama." The businessman got on his horse and took a deep look at Imagawa Ujimoto, "I hope that when I see you next time, you have already suffered a loss and given up those useless good intentions."
