Li Wei planned to hide his identity and meet people from the Chamber of Commerce in person. On the one hand, he wanted to touch and see the purpose of the Chamber of Commerce, and on the other hand, he also wanted to hide his identity and buy some seafood.
It's time to act as the Dark One of Kyoto. After all, as Danzo of Kyoto, you should do the work that Danzo should do, even if it's just a simple secret investigation.
Li Wei secretly came to Flower Street. Obviously, Flower Street is much more lively now than before.
A bamboo platform was set up not far away. A beautiful oiran just put a little rose on her lower lip, and then performed Feiju singing and dancing on the stage, and from time to time exchanged long and short sentences with the people below.
interactive.
Along the street, various stalls were opened. This was the business strategy of Haneda Caravan, using oiran as a gimmick to attract this group of nobles.
Then the goods were put up for sale on the only way to go, and the people attracted by the oiran were basically some noble children, and they were the main ones who bought the goods.
Everyone knows that it is impossible to expect ordinary people to come and consume seafood and sake.
Haneda Eki also hired countless geishas along the street. These modest geishas could not only enhance the beauty of the oiran, but also become the objects of entertainment for the noble children.
You can often see a certain nobleman falling in love with a certain wandering girl, and then they enter a small private room and start having sex, settling the matter on the spot.
It is very common here, even to the extent of being a little bit married. These female geishas may also hope that they can be favored by a child of a certain noble family, so that they can even become the mistress of the noble family or a further concubine, thus completing the class.
jump.
These flower streets are the property of the Fujiwara family, and the Haneda family has given an unknown amount of money to the Fujiwara family just for these.
Flower Street is the main source of income for the Fujiwara family. If it were placed in other societies, after Levi knew the truth about this industry, he would pull out ten of the people who split the Fujiwara family and kill nine out of ten, just like those who were killed by him before.
Just like the nobles who ransacked their homes.
But this is in Weibara, a country that has just entered feudal society from primitive society. Let alone now, in Fuso in the era of technological society in his previous life, such a meeting between wandering girls and geishas in Shibuya is impossible.
It is an outrageous legal existence, and there is even a word called Yuanzhu communication.
It doesn't agree with Li Wei's three views, but Li Wei knows that here, in this era and this country, it is reasonable.
In a word, the situation is different. He is not a native and does not understand the rules here, so he does not interfere even if he does not understand it.
Unless it affects his Li Wei interests, just like the group of guys who dared to take advantage of the plague to raise rice prices last time.
Today he secretly used Qianji's makeup powder to make his face extremely white, and then he wandered here like a young man with a weak kidney.
Because there was a spider in Ninja Village summarizing information about ninjas, he just took the opportunity to personally investigate this suspicious caravan.
Along the way, countless wandering girls felt their eyes light up when they saw Li Wei, who was made up like a zombie, and began to wave to him, and many of them even touched porcelain.
But Li Wei pretended not to see it. His eyes were all focused on the seafood in front of him. Not only the seafood, the caravan actually also had wild boar carcasses for sale.
It seemed that he was more concerned about the goods in front of him than those wandering girls.
It was actually hard for him to imagine that wild boar, sake, seafood and wandering girls would be traded on the same street, and even several items would be sold well.
Some gentlemen walked into the small private room with their backs straightened out and brought sake, and then came out with their waists held up and bought some seafood and meat to replenish their bodies. The absurdity was unexpectedly reasonable and harmonious.
Not far away from Li Wei, an oiran wearing a thick dress and high clogs was also parading through the street. Some servants were nearby, sprinkling water on the ground and slightly lifting her skirt.
Then, the moment the oiran saw Li Wei, he gently covered his mouth, and then kept glancing in Li Wei's direction.
But Li Wei didn't notice it, he just saw that there was still half a wild boar.
"Merchant, how do you sell this half wild boar?" Li Wei asked.
Although the wild boar of this era has a strong smell and thick meat, for Li Wei, it is already the top meat.
He even regretted not coming earlier, otherwise, if he had taken the whole wild boar, he would have been able to eat it for many days.
There has been no source of meat in Kyoto for a long time.
"Four stones of grain is either 800 yuan or 7 taels of silver." The merchant took out the knotted rope and counted it for a while before saying.
"Huo, it's not cheap. Is your meat made of gold or silver?" Li Wei is no stranger to prices in Kyoto. This half wild boar may weigh less than thirty kilograms, but the price is more than twenty times that of grain.
.
Probably a premium of more than 80%.
"Hey, everyone (an honorific), look where there is meat now. The meat outside the city is the food of weird and demons. We brought it here from Ezo, but over there we use seeds.
The fields are growing meat,” the merchant said.
Levi frowned, but bought it anyway, and gave an address to be sent to a stronghold in the Ninja Village. He prepared some miscellaneous meat for his ninja warriors to eat, and the rest was better meat.
Stay and save it yourself.
Later, Li Wei bought a lot of goods, including some medicinal materials and things he thought were useful. Before Yin Wa's antibiotics were mass-produced, these medicinal materials were still useful.
But he didn't just buy things. His mind was always on the people observing the caravan, and his tracking skills were always turned on.
However, a few hours passed and nothing unusual was found.
In the past few hours, there were all kinds of people, including nobles who came here to play with wandering girls, samurai who came here to have some sake and fun, and even a monk from the Kakyoin family who came here to have fun.
It seems that the temple owners here are having a lot of fun, and the monks can even come to Flower Street.
Li Wei shook his head and ignored it. After all, the monks here didn't seem to have any opinions similar to Bajie. Many monks had married wives.
At this moment, Levi, who had always noticed something strange, became interested in a samurai wearing a ghost hood.
The warrior was more than two meters tall and as strong as a black bear. His entire face was covered by ghost pockets, making it impossible to see his face.
However, what he was carrying on his back was not a katana or a razor, but the very famous Germanic sword that Li Wei knew in his previous life.
It's that strange big sword with a handle where the blade was originally, which is equivalent to a double-grip structure.
Such a large sword holds the original hilt with one hand and the handle at the blade with the other hand. It is a weapon specially designed for heavy armor.
However, Weiyuan people basically do not wear armor. Those who wear bamboo armor are basically high-level samurai. Only the samurai ninjas of the Li Wei family secretly stuff steel plates under their clothes.
This kind of sword is obviously used to deal with cans, and it seems incompatible with the Kyoto painting style.
Levi began to walk over curiously and asked the warrior directly: "Hey, warrior, where did you get this sword?"
"Are you...talking to me?" the tall warrior said in bad language.
Li Wei was stunned for a moment: "Aren't you from Weiyuan?"
The man suddenly became alert and began to put a hand on the sword.
"Don't be nervous, I'm just very interested in the world outside Weiyuan. Do you have time to chat? I can pay." Levi said again.
"I'm sorry, my master is still waiting for me, so I won't accompany you." The warrior said, preparing to leave.
He saw Li Wei's clothes and knew that he was a noble, so at most he just declined and threatened, but did not take action.
"Let me guess, in this era, with this great sword, are you from Europa, from the HRE? Or are you from the Crusaders in the Eastern Expedition?" Levi suddenly asked in a confused manner.
"Why did you..." As soon as the man opened his mouth, he realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly pushed Levi away to leave.
Levi watched him leave in a hurry, and then his face turned cold.
Sure enough, Weiyuan was not alone at this time. The elixir of death had come out, which meant that China also existed. And now he seemed to have discovered a person from Europa, who should be a Crusader in the Eastern Expedition.
He took a long breath and suddenly felt that the world was very big, far from just Weiyuan.
While Li Wei was thinking, another person blocked his way.
It was a businessman wearing a feathered fabric, who seemed to be a steward in the caravan. He handed a scroll to Li Wei and said respectfully: "Sir, I just saw that you have been buying some.
Goods, there happens to be more precious and large goods for sale in the evening, are you interested? At that time, Lord Haneda will also go there in person."
Li Wei had signed a scroll with some lists written on it, and he was indeed interested.
"Interesting, maybe I will go." Levi said. In fact, he was not interested in the so-called rare goods inside. He came secretly to investigate the caravan's elixir news. Since Haneda came back in the evening, he also wanted to
Go and have a look.
If the identity of the Fujiwara family was used, Levi felt that there was a high probability that he would not get any information, so he hid his identity and conducted the investigation.
It would be best to use tracking techniques to confirm his identity.
"Then I really appreciate your support, sir. Sir, what would you call me?"
"Shimura Danzo." Levi used a false identity.
"Danzo-sama, Haneda-sama will also be happy if you come." This retainer-like figure said with a smile.
Levi also laughed. He felt that there might be something wrong with this caravan, plus the man who seemed to be a white man who just walked by.
He felt very confused, and the ghost-faced and helmeted warrior made him feel very uncomfortable. The sword he used was a German two-handed sword. But the Crusades of this era were very awkward, and Li Wei felt that those Crusaders
The army has not even reached the highest mountain in the world, how could it possibly come to Weiyuan.
…
During the previous period, Spider conducted an in-depth investigation into the Haneda family and really found some clues.
He discovered that the great onmyoji of the Haneda family was actually called "Alchemist", a strange title. There was even vague information that pointed out that the successive heads of the Haneda family would change their surname to "Ying", and only this one in each generation
People can have such strange last names.
The news about the Haneda family in Kyoto is basically looking for a needle in a haystack, but there is a lot of news in Shendu, so she sent Ye Xiao to Shendu as quickly as possible to pass the news to Fujiwara who was lurking in Shendu.
Home Ninja.
She needed more information about the Haneda family, even if it was just false information, she felt like she had found the right direction.
On the other hand, she began to have a large number of ninjas search for the classics and continue to dig into the Haneda family's past.
These days, she only goes home at night and is basically in the Ninja Village.
A few days later, she received information from Ye Xiao. A Fujiwara ninja from Shendu had even sneaked into the shogunate and was now working in the shogunate, so he sent back a lot of information.
One of them was about the private messages that Minamoto Yoritomo often had with the Haneda family's caravans.
This means that the Haneda family is most likely deeply bound to Minamoto Yoritomo.
Then, at the end of the information, the ninja said, "Be careful of Shenji"...
This news made Spider feel very confused. Ninjas would not release inexplicable information for no reason. There must be some very important information hidden in it.
She was about to go to Li Wei and look at the information with him, but at this moment, she suddenly received news about the elixir brought back by a ninja.
…
And here, Eri Haneda is preparing to hold a sales meeting and his subsequent winter meeting.
While Li Wei was waiting for the night, inexplicably, news of the elixir spread in Kyoto, which made Li Wei feel very strange.
In the flower street, everyone began to talk about the elixir.
Even if it was just traders, just traveling girls, or even just porters, they all started talking, as if they were deliberately spreading the news.
Moreover, the news about this elixir does not mean that there is a medicine, but it means that there may be news tonight.
If there is any information related to the elixir, Kyoto will definitely be shaken.
And even if there is no news related to the elixir, many more people will come to the sales meeting in the evening. They are equivalent to making traffic in vain, and when the time comes, they only need to say that it was passed on by someone below, and they will be able to get away without knowing.
Levi suddenly felt familiar. Isn't this false marketing from his previous life?
The spread of the false elixir news shocked everyone in Kyoto. Even Chiki in Daming Prefecture and Spider in Ninja Village discovered the problem in a very short period of time.
Such false marketing began to spread throughout Kyoto like a virus.
In just half a day, even the tenant farmers of the Fujiwara family knew about the elixir.
And just when the whole of Kyoto was in turmoil, the evening sales officially began.
The flower building in Flower Street was originally a wooden four-story building. Most of the courtesans in Kyoto came from here.
However, now the Haneda caravan has taken over the entire flower building with a single wave of its hand.
Just ask if you have money.
Most of the people who came here at this time were intrigued by the news about the elixir.
"Do you think there will really be an elixir of death? Isn't that a legendary divine item?" someone asked.
"Since there is this news, the Haneda family will definitely give an explanation, but it is probably the news from Momo Lake."
"Wait a minute, it's coming."
Among the guests, there was endless discussion. The whole flower building was basically full of people at this time. This was the busiest time in the history of the flower street.
