Being able to participate in 30% of the arms trade in Sakai Port and understand the direction of all transactions, Takada Yono believes that the limit has been reached for the time being.
Businessmen are a very complex group, involving all aspects of power and relationships.
During the period of the Emperor's court, foreign trade was quite weak, and the imperial envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty almost devoted their lives to obtaining the advanced system of the Tang Dynasty.
Due to the lack of ocean-going technology, going to sea is tantamount to courting death, and being buried in the belly of a fish is a common occurrence.
During the Kamakura Shogunate period, Japan was rich in gold and silver.
The trading ships of the Song Dynasty, Goryeo, and Ryukyu brought a large number of trading products, and bulk trade was gradually established.
After the collapse of the Kamakura shogunate, samurai warriors from Kyushu and the Seto Inland Sea turned into Japanese pirates and went to sea to do evil with the help of trade lines.
After Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the third generation shogunate of the Ashikaga shogunate, came to power, he sought status from Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor who established the Ming Dynasty, in order to suppress Japan.
Zhu Yuanzhang asked her to eradicate the Japanese pirates that harassed the coast of the Ming Dynasty. Ashikaga Yoshimitsu happily accepted it, set up a Kyushu expedition to attack the Japanese pirates, and presented her head to flatter the Ming Dynasty.
Later, Zhu Yuanzhang granted Ashikaga Yoshimitsu the title of King of Japan, granted the King a gold seal, and allowed for joint trade.
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu used the golden seal of the Japanese king to eradicate the emperor's ministers. At this point, the samurai family dominated Japan and had no political constraints.
Through the Kanji trade, the Ashikaga family gathered a lot of interests. During the period when Ashikaga Yoshimitsu was the shogun, the prestige of the Ashikaga shogunate reached its peak.
From the perspective of power alone, only the third generation shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu is the master of the world. The other Ashikaga shoguns can only be said to share the world with the samurai under their command.
After Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the rights to explore and trade were acquired by the Hosokawa family and the Ouchi family.
The two families fought fiercely to seize trade rights.
The Hosokawa family united with the merchants of Sakai Port, and the Ouchi family united with the Hakata merchants in a long-term game. In the end, the Ouchi family won.
The Ouchi family monopolized the rights to explore trade, and the center of Japan's foreign trade turned to Hakata Port in Chikuzen Province, Kitakyushu.
Kitakyushu Hakata merchants monopolized the Ming Dynasty, Korea, and Ryukyu trade with Japan, as well as the newly entered Nanman trade.
Merchants from Sakai Port in Konki switched to the Seto Inland Sea for intra-Japanese trade in Konki and Kanto.
The two sides are fighting each other and interdependent on trade. You are in me, and I am in you. The water is very deep.
Especially after the defeat of the Ouchi family and the Hosokawa clan, the dominance of Hakata Port and Sakai Port has changed hands, making it even more complicated.
Yang Nai thought for a while and said.
"With the capabilities of the Shinsengumi, participating in 30% of the arms trade is already the limit.
After all, my family is not a good family, and these businessmen will not give in so easily.
Share more profits to the merchants who use the Hokuriku Expressway, and I want the Shiba family's trade route to reach Echigo next year."
Imai Munehisa is in trouble.
"This will cost us a lot of money, and even if we are willing to give up the profits, we are afraid that someone will take the opportunity to cause trouble and demand more."
Takada Yangno smiled coldly and said.
"Imai-hime, you have to change your thinking.
Now you are a member of the Wu family, not a businessman. Don't worry about things from the perspective of a businessman.
Our foundation is not money, but the Spo family. As long as the Spo family can be strong, all efforts will be worth it.
The Lord's order to open the Hokuriku Road must be due to the family's decision.
This is an order and cannot be questioned, do you understand?"
Imai Munehisa panicked and kowtowed to the ground.
"I, the Imai family, are loyal to Lord Kenshin. Don't misunderstand me, Lord Takada.
I'm just afraid that I won't be able to complete His Highness's mission if I don't think carefully, so I'm just saying a few words.
Business negotiations are also games. These businessmen are treacherous. Once my family reveals their urgent needs, they will definitely be bitten and pursue more benefits.
I'm worried that bloodletting and giving away profits will only make them more greedy and make it difficult to continue."
Takata Yono shook his head and said.
"That's why I said, you still think like a businessman.
We are the Wu family, and we have the right to let them die. Is it so easy to get the benefits of the Sibo family?
I will contact Akechi Mitsuhide and ask her to negotiate with the Shiba family's allies.
Businessmen who support the Shiba family in opening up the Hokurikudo will receive preferential treatment in the territories of the three Shiba Hosokawa and Mibuchi families.
Even the Asai family will provide convenience, and Owari Maeda Toshiie-sama can provide guidance.
Merchants who disrespect our Sibo family will be severely punished. As for how to punish these bastards, it is up to you.
After all, you know their pain points better and are the most suitable candidate."
Imai Munehisa was fascinated when he heard this.
When she was a businessman, she deeply hated the fact that the Wu family used their power to suppress businesses wantonly and do whatever they wanted.
Now she has become a member of the Wu family and is the business leader of the Gaomen Sibo branch.
It is indescribably refreshing to use the power of the Wu family to bully old friends who like to be smart. The sweetness of power is so wonderful.
Mr. Takada is right, in the society of the Wu family, businessmen are just p.
The Shiba family is the leader of a powerful local faction in the shogunate. How can a humble businessman live a good life if he offends such a noble family?
All you need to do is catch one or two ignorant people to scare the monkeys, and the trouble will be solved naturally.
She bowed sincerely.
"Takada-sama is wise."
Yang Nai glanced at her and said.
"Remember, we are the Wu family.
Your identity has changed. Don’t worry about money transactions when doing things in the future.
As long as the Spo family is strong, we will have more and more rights. With rights, we are not afraid of not having money.
The Shinsengumi's presence in Sakai Port is not to make money, but to cooperate with the Shiba family's strategy and assist in the expansion of the family business."
Imai Munehisa cheered, becoming more and more respectful.
Takada Harano learned quickly. Within half a year of coming to Sakai Port, she understood the essence of a businessman.
Merchants are profit-seeking, and in order to make profits, they can sell the rope with which they hang themselves.
Businessmen are humble. Under the sword of the samurai family, they are willing to give money in exchange for reproduction. The weakness of the property owners is clearly visible.
The villains in the village are ruthless enough to hunt down fallen warriors, while businessmen will only look for big trees and become vines clinging to the trees, clinging to the strong.
The warriors oppressed them and treated them badly, and their methods were too rough.
Takada Yono has his own ideas and looks down on the samurai's shallow approach to businessmen.
Her eyes were not only on Sakai Port, but also on the distant Hakata Port in Kitakyushu.
As long as we can control the trade routes in Kansai, we can control the merchants of Sakai Port and Hakata, and we can control all the trade routes in Kansai.
This represents a huge amount of money and a huge supply of materials behind the money.
The Takada family was unable to gain military merit from the battlefield, so she could only use the power of money to serve the Lord in order to gain his favor.
Thinking of this, Takada Yono's whole body felt hot and he couldn't control himself.
Her eyes were cold and she said to Imai Munehisa.
"Give me the right to participate in 30% of military supplies and clarify the direction of all military trade in Sakai Port.
When negotiating with merchants on the Hokuriku Road, I don't care how you operate, whether it's through coercion, inducement, or murder. Next year, the Shiba family's trade route will reach Echigo.
These two things must be completed without any mistakes."
"Hi!"
Yangno turned to look at Yuigahama Yui and said.
"The Shinsengumi is prepared. If something goes wrong, we will handle it according to Ikedaya's old practice."
"Hi!"
After speaking, she looked into the distance with firm eyes.
