Chapter 1730: Destroy one thing to make up for the other and make a big dream(1/2)
Mikami Momo was worried that Yua Kito had a strong temper and would one day discover the truth, report the whole matter, and turn the Kanto Secretariat upside down.
But she didn't know that maybe things would have gone awry before Yuya Kito reported it.
In the Miao'an Temple under Odawara Castle, the four nuns - Yu Xin of Miaoan Temple, Kame of Sankoji Temple, Zhehuang of Wuliang Temple, and Kaixin of Yangrin Temple - looked at each other, eager to find a way to get through.
Yanglin Temple opens a new airway.
"I told you a long time ago! You should keep more money and food in your books just in case! But no one listened to me!
What to do now? What to do?”
Sanguang Temple Shang Hui sneered.
"When I reached out to get the money, I didn't see you saying anything about it being hot. What's the matter? Now I thought about it and complained?"
The two of them glared at each other angrily. Yu Xin from Miao'an Temple slapped the document and shouted.
"Okay, don't say a word. No one wants to see this kind of accident happen. Instead of blaming each other, it's better to say a few useful words!
We are all grasshoppers on the same rope. If something happens, we will die together. What is there to argue about? What is really important is to help us come up with an idea!"
Wuliang Temple Zhehuang put his hands together, shouted the Buddha's name, and had a grimace on his face.
"A rebellion broke out among the people in the East, and the warehouses and granaries set up by the Kanto Secretariat in the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River were opened to fully supply the needs of the rebels and support the war effort of the central government.
Now that the war is over and the warehouses have been emptied, both the practice center and the Samurai Giri Promotion Association need to replenish supplies and refill the warehouses.
The money and food are all there in the accounts, but those are just figures to deceive the nobles. The real money has already been invested in Sakai Port's food stamps, Hokurikudo stocks, and Shiba Real Estate from various channels.
The money won't come back for a while. If we break the contract and come back, we won't be able to account for the compensation for breach of contract and the loss of interest to those greedy guys who are waiting to share the money.
I originally thought that if there were new loans every month and every quarter, there would be no problem with cash flow.
But who would have thought that the people in the East would dare to rebel against the saint. Who would have thought that Lord Daxiong Chaoxiu and Lord Dazang Changan would dare to fully open positions.
Now the warehouses are all empty, and the superiors have ordered that funds be mobilized to purchase supplies and replenish the warehouses.
Our cash flow is simply not enough. If we can't give the above a reasonable explanation, I'm afraid it will arouse suspicion.
Although our accounts are cleverly done, they still cannot withstand the scrutiny of interested people, and we rely on help from all parties to cover them up.
If someone from above sees the clues and finds out the problem, then..."
This accident was something the four nuns had never imagined.
You said that the people in the East wanted to rebel and seek death when they knew that the saint was wise and mighty? It was obvious that the rebels accepted the saint's call and gathered together for righteousness. Why did Da Xiong Chaoxiu and Da Zang Chang'an rush to show their faces?
The Enforcement Office and the Samurai Giri Promotion Association jumped out to compete to see who could burn more money. As a result, the stocks originally prepared for water conservancy projects in the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River basin were all turned into military supplies.
Fighting means burning money. Where is the consumption rate comparable to water conservancy construction?
Besides, who doesn't like free things? The rebels passed by the warehouse and saw that they were taking things casually, so naturally they wouldn't leave even a scrap of tissue paper behind.
The battle had only lasted for more than twenty days, and most of the rebels had never actually been on the battlefield. Their military achievements were better than nothing. At most, they had a false reputation as a righteous soldier, but they took away nothing from the warehouse.
After all, they are righteous people who came to fight for the saints. Would the Samurai Giri Promotion Association be embarrassed to take back the things they moved from the warehouse?
Even if most of the rebels didn't win the battle and didn't receive any rewards, they were still waving flags and shouting for the saints, so they had to reimburse their travel expenses back and forth, right?
At this time, money and money must be compared, which is not conducive to unity. The saint will not be happy if he knows about it.
Daxiong Chaoxiu and Dazang Changan competed for money to show their loyalty. Isn't it just for the saints to see? How could Dazang Changan lose the chain at the last moment?
It is impossible to get back the materials taken by the rebels, but the warehouses are reserve resources placed by the Wu Family Giri Promotion Association in various places, and they must be replenished. The money and food to replenish the warehouses will of course be cashed out of the accounts.
As a result, the four nuns who were in charge of the accounts were frightened.
All the money went to Sakai Port Takata Harano to earn interest, and the figures on the books could not be cashed out, but the empty warehouse had to be filled, otherwise it would not be justified.
The numbers on the accounts can be deceived. Whether the warehouse is full or empty can be seen at a glance. Even if you want to play tricks like burning the warehouse with fire dragons and borrowing food from Yin soldiers, the premise is that the warehouse must be full.
The granary that is full on the accounts can be set on fire, but who knows if it was originally full or empty?
However, now that the empty warehouse needs to be filled, how can we perform something out of nothing in public?
Now the four nuns who were in charge of the accounts were worried to death. They were all as anxious as ants on a hot pot, not knowing how to deal with this situation.
Miao'an Temple Yu Xin gritted his teeth and said something.
"Actually, there is no way to do it. It just requires taking some risks. It depends on whether you are willing to cooperate with me."
Sanguang Temple Shang Hui smiled bitterly.
"It's already this time, and you still talk about risks or not. If you raise your head, it's the same as if you shrink your head. If you have a solution, just speak it out as soon as possible."
Miao'an Temple Yu Xin said with a gloomy expression.
"The saint had a very unhappy time with His Highness Uesugi Takeda in Furukawa Castle. Do you know about this?"
Wuliangsi Zhehuang nodded and said.
"How could you not know? It has already caused a fuss.
The saint didn't know what he was thinking. The people from the East rebelled and raided the ancient river city, almost trapping the saint in the city. After that, they even fought against each other.
Now that they have lost and surrendered, the saint not only doesn't care about it, but also speaks for them and asks the lords of the Kanto Palace to raise funds to relieve the great famine that may occur in the four eastern countries after the autumn.
You said that the people in the East are looking for death, and they raise armies and rebel during the busy season of spring plowing. Even if people starve to death after autumn, it is still seeking mercy and getting mercy.
The various families in the Kanto Imperial Palace wish that there would be a famine among the people in the East and that the strength of the four Eastern countries would be weakened so that they could merge and manage them in the future.
Who knew that the saint was so kind that he couldn't bear to see the four eastern countries starved to death and corpses strewn across the fields, so he insisted that all the families in the Guandong service station help their counterparts and provide money and food to relieve their enemies.
Not to mention that His Highnesses Uesugi and Takeda are not convinced about this matter, even if you leave it to me, I can’t figure it out.”
Yu Xin of Miao'an Temple clasped his hands together and said with a shout of Amitabha.
"We monks should be compassionate and saints are kind. We need to understand more. How can we say we can't figure it out?"
Wuliangsi Zhehuang was scolded, he smiled awkwardly, and cursed in his heart, "You wait for everyone to have a solemn appearance and kind eyes, but it seems that I don't practice Buddhism, don't abide by the Buddha's heart, and am greedy."
We are obviously telling the truth behind closed doors and discussing ways to do it, but why do we insist on pretending to be compassionate at this moment? Bah! How hypocritical!
Miao'an Temple Yuxin glanced at Wuliang Temple Zhehuang, who had a stiff look on his face, and explained.
"I didn't mean to embarrass you, this is the saint showing us a way to survive."
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details."
"The saint and His Highness Uesugi Takeda are fighting against each other in Furukawa City. No one is willing to compromise, but this matter must be resolved. Delaying it too late will not be beneficial to everyone.
That is to say, the Uesugi Takeda family has an unusual status and raises a god descendant in their family, so they dare to fight against the saint. If it were others, they would have been killed long ago."
"This is so urgent. Can you stop being so pretentious? I'm all ears and you can just tell the key points!"
"Okay, okay, I said that's it.
Counterpart assistance is the will of the saints and cannot be changed. However, the Guandong service offices have no fault, so why should they take the blame for the sinners in the East?
The crux of the matter lies in this.
I heard that His Highness Hojo Ushimasa is going to Kawagoe Castle and invites the two governors of Uesugi Takeda to meet and come forward to coordinate this matter."
Wuliang Temple Zhehuang was stunned.
"How can His Highness Hojo have such dignity? Let His Highnesses Uesugi Takeda visit Kawagoe Castle?"
Miao'an Temple Yu Xin chuckled.
“It didn’t happen before, but now it does.
Her Highness Hojo is pregnant, and even if His Highnesses Uesugi and Takeda refuse to give her face, they will still go to Kawakoshi Castle for the sake of the divine descendant in her belly.
After all, His Highness Hojo is pregnant with the divine descendants of a saint, and he still has to run around as a peacemaker. This courtesy must be given.
The key to the problem is not this, but that His Highness Hojo Ushimasa had already talked with the people of Kamakura Gozan before setting off, and it was quite fruitful."
There was a movement on Hui's face at Sanguang Temple.
"You mean to say that His Highness Hojo asked Kamakura Gozan to be responsible for the funds, and the counterpart assistance does not necessarily require the Kanto Palace to provide money and food. It can be in the form of a loan?
Does His Highness Hojo Ushimasa want to use this trump card to negotiate with the two Uesugi Takeda family governors to mediate the deadlock between the saint and the Kanto Palace?"
Miao'an Temple Yu Xin said with a smile.
"Exactly.
Each family in the Kantō service office provided a guarantee of reputation, and Kamakura Gozan provided money and grain to lend to the people of the East. After the famine this autumn, the people of the East will naturally repay the money, grain, and interest themselves.
