Maeda got angrier as he spoke, glaring at Akechi Mitsuhide and almost yelling.
"You are not the generals of the Spur Kingdom in recent times, but you tell me with your military qualities.
The Oda family has 2 million koku, and the recent Shiba leader has 200,000 koku. What should I do when I am surrounded on three sides and cannot take the initiative to occupy Suzuka Pass!
Niziji, you said that you saw the shogunate-Oda struggle approaching and felt like a light on your back, but do you feel as much military pressure as I do?
The Oda family has captured Minami Omi, and almost the entire territory has surrendered. There is only a small group of diehards among the Koga clan, the Rokkaku mother and daughter who are loyal to Ishibe Castle.
Koka County is backed by the Suzuka Mountains. The geography is rugged, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It was the biggest unstable area during the Oda family's rule in Minami Omi.
I have left some tacit understanding with the remnants of the Hexagon just in case. Is there any problem?
If one day the Oda family besieges Konkisuba Territory from three sides, where else can I find a breakthrough besides Koka County to leave room for me to deal with powerful enemies?
In other words, when that time comes, will the Oda family's army be blocked by your mouth, Akechi Mitsuhide? "
Maeda's interests are loyal to Shiba Yiyin and the Shiba family. He contacted the Rokkaku remnant party for the sake of the recent Shiba leadership, and he has a clear conscience.
Akechi Mitsuhide's accusation against her was deliberately slanderous. She knew it, Akechi Mitsuhide knew it, and so did the ladies present. But it was Akechi Mitsuhide who seized on the loopholes in the procedure and pursued her fiercely.
Facing Maeda's angry glare, Akechi Mitsuhide just smiled slightly and bowed.
"Maeda Hime's military talent is naturally a hundred times better than mine. I have never doubted your loyalty to my lord.
It's just that not long after the Lord restored the Sibo family, it was difficult for Sibo leaders to communicate with each other. The worst fear was that he would go out alone without authorization, leading to accidents.
Maeda Hime, please don’t get me wrong, I’m not targeting you.
I just feel that the warning of the Kyoto Incident is not far away, and the blood of the previous generals who died tragically in Nijo Castle is still fresh. We still need to be more cautious when doing things, and we cannot continue to do our own thing and retreat again and again.
Since the Lord has decided that Ni Ziji will be the acting official for the recent Sibo, we should at least inform her before doing anything, right?
If she is unable to make a decision, she can still make the decision before submitting the case to the Lord.
If everyone thinks they are thinking about the Spo family and can act randomly, wouldn't the family be in chaos? Especially in military operations, we need to be more cautious.
Maeda Hime herself also said that the Oda family has two million koku, and recently Sibo has received two hundred thousand koku. The enemy is strong and we are weak.
We cannot send out wrong signals, causing the Oda family to misjudge our family's intentions, and putting the recent Sporland into unnecessary danger.
The Rokkaku family has ruled Minami Omi for hundreds of years. The Rokkaku mother and daughter stubbornly resisted and refused to surrender in the back corner of Ishibe Castle, which was a thorn in the heart of His Highness Oda.
Maeda Hime contacted them. If this news accidentally leaked to His Highness Oda, how passive would I be as a diplomat?
In view of the possible serious consequences of this matter, I propose to report the matter to the Lord of Kanto and leave it to the Lord to make a decision.
Before the Lord makes a decision, Maeda-hime is asked to be patient and not to act too radically. "
After speaking, Akechi Mitsuhide bowed cautiously to Maeda. But in front of her seemingly sincere bow, Maeda looked angry and helpless.
Akechi Mitsuhide succeeded in the end. She talked so much just to force Maeda's interests and dare not act rashly.
Even though Maeda had her own reasons, Akechi Mitsuhide blocked her way and forced her into a corner.
You say you are loyal to Maeda's interests, but are you really clean regarding the death of Ashikaga Yoshiteru in the Kyoto Incident?
If you are not clean, you have a criminal record.
The Lord appointed Nizi Katsuhisa as the acting magistrate of the Konkisbo Territory. He learned the lessons of the Kyoto Incident and gave Konkispo Territory a leader, and did not allow the big bosses to act independently and cause trouble.
However, before Maeda's interests were discussed with Nizi Katsuhisa, he went to contact the Rokkaku remnants without authorization. To be serious, it went against the will of the master.
Even though Maeda felt she was wronged, she came here to talk to Nizi Katsuhisa about it, but she was preempted by Akechi Mitsuhide.
But now, it's too late to say anything. Akechi Mitsuhide finished everything first, and Maeda had nothing to say.
Maeda's interests could only wait for Nizi Katsuhisa to report to the lord of Kanto and wait for Yoshihiro Shiba's decision on the matter. Before that, it was inconvenient for her to do anything else.
In this way, Akechi Mitsuhide's intention of suppressing Maeda's interests and preventing her from getting involved in the Ashikaga-Oda dispute was achieved.
Shiba Yiyin's failure to come back this time means that he has accepted Akechi Mitsuhide's advice and continues to keep a low profile and pretend to be a grandson.
Maeda could have made use of his authority as the general of the Konkisbo Territory to secretly make some strategic plans.
But because Mitsuhide Akechi made such a fuss, Maeda's interests could only be completely flat and could not make any more moves. He was really depressed to death.
Maeda couldn't understand why the wave leader had to watch Oda Nobunaga get bigger step by step in recent years and defeat the Ashikaga General.
When the power of the Oda family is overwhelming, what can Spo do with this little mobilization power in recent times? At that time, no matter whether the samurai family inside or outside the shogunate are willing or not, they will have to succumb to the power of Oda Nobunaga.
No matter how powerful the master Sibo Yiyin is, and no matter how unyielding the Sibo leader is in recent years, what can he do?
But what Maeda couldn't figure out was exactly what Akechi Mitsuhide wanted to achieve.
In crisis, there is opportunity.
Before the desperate moment when the world of the samurai family would be overthrown by Oda Nobunaga, how could the samurai group unite closely around Yoshigami Shiba and fight to the death for their five hundred years of class privileges?
Akechi Mitsuhide and Maeda looked at each other, and as soon as their eyes touched, there seemed to be lightning flowing from them.
Nizi Shengjiu sighed and said.
"That's it, I'll submit Maeda Hime's strategic idea of contacting the remnants of the Rokkaku to Kanto, and I beg the lord to make a decision."
Nizi Katsuhisa knew that she was being used as a weapon by Akechi Mitsuhide, but every word Akechi Mitsuhide said was justified. What could she do?
Are you suppressing this matter and not reporting it? Let Akechi Mitsuhide make another small report to the master, saying that Nizi Katsuhisa's administration is unfair and that he is covering up Maeda's interests in military adventures?
The only way Nizi Katsuhisa could express his dissatisfaction was to ignore the small issue that Maeda had contacted in advance, package the matter into a suggestion that had not yet been implemented, and submit it.
This is the attitude of minimizing big things and minimizing small things. If Mitsuhide Akechi had known the truth, she would not have clung to Maeda's interests after she had achieved her goal.
And Takada Yukino, who was pulled out of the absence of Takada Yukino several times by Akechi Mitsuhide, made trouble, and made her feel uncomfortable. Naturally, she agreed with the actions of Nizi Katsuhisa and Nini.
"I agree, let this matter be decided by the Lord."
After Takada Haruno finished speaking, he glanced at Ishida Mitsunari who was beside him.
Ishida Mitsunari will naturally not offend his colleagues for things that have nothing to do with him, she said with a smile.
"I agree too."
Except for the dumbstruck Momochi Santao and Yagyu Munenomi, everyone else has expressed their stance. What else can Maeda say?
She snorted and turned her eyes away, not wanting to see Akechi Mitsuhide's fake pretty face and that graceful smile.
Akechi Mitsuhide got what he wanted, Maeda was so disgusted that he couldn't speak, and the room fell into silence for a while.
Nizi Shengjiu, the person who held the review, was also embarrassed. I have known for a long time that it is difficult to be an acting official, but now it seems that it is indeed very difficult.
Ishida Mitsunari on the side saw the scene cool down and laughed.
"My lords are all working hard to prepare for the future of Sporland in recent times, so why should we hurt each other's harmony over some official matters.
If there is a cloud in the sky, if the generals and ministers are harmonious, then the scholars will be attached. It is my honor to work with all of you loyal, wise and courageous people.
Now that spring plowing has passed, the distribution of annuities from the Spozhong Fund will be put on the agenda again, and we will need your support at that time. "
Not long after the Shibachu Fund was established, Ishida Mitsunari came to Shiba Council late. He had not had deep entanglements with all parties and just came out to smooth things over.
She is the wealth-dispersing girl of Sibo Yiyin. She only distributes money and is not easy to offend others. The big bosses of all parties must give her some face.
Nizi Shengjiu smiled.
“The days go by so fast, and the middle of the year is approaching again.
To put it bluntly, many of my subordinate Ji warriors have recently begun to look forward to this period of annuity, and asked me in a roundabout way about the specific details of the payment.
Ishida Hime, please give me an accurate statement. Will the annuity be paid to three stones this time? "
Ishida Mitsunari smiled.
"The Lord has decided that in the near future, Owari and the three leaders of Kanto will be given annuities at the same time, all of which are three stones.
Everyone is a Ji warrior loyal to the Shiba family, and their treatment must be equal. "
In order to decide whether to give an annuity of four stones or six stones a year, and to give priority to the distribution of Sibo collar or full collar in recent years, the entire Sibo Zhong Fund was involved in a major corruption case and almost all were wiped out.
Ishida Mitsunari originally just wanted to take the opportunity to drive away those disobedient other factions, but instead he ushered in an unexpected massacre.
Takada Yukino killed happily, but Ishida Mitsunari complained endlessly. The difference between driving people away and killing them all is huge. God knows how many people will be offended.
But the matter has come to this, and she has nothing to do. The only thing she can do is to use her own people to complete the annuity optimization as soon as possible to prevent this problem from getting worse.
Six stones, hair. Full collar, hair.
The money is provided by the Shibachu Foundation. I just ask you guys to stop using the topic to make excuses. I, Ishida Mitsunari, can't afford it, so why not just pay for it?
When Nizi Shengjiu heard what she said, he was a little worried.
"Ishida Hime, the Shibachu Fund has just been established for a year. Is the financial resources sufficient to support the six-stone distribution standard?
This annuity benefit is no different than other things and must be treated with caution. Once it is issued according to the standard, it cannot be lacking or reduced again in the future.
It is said that the Sibo Zhong Fund borrowed a lot of money and food from Tucang, and the interest was not low. You need to accumulate more principal and make more plans for the future. "
Ishida Mitsunari said with a confident smile.
"Please rest assured Ni Ziji, I know this matter well.
Thanks to Takada Hime's assistance, the Shibachu Fund was able to thrive in the Hokurikudo trading route market and developed very smoothly.
The first batch of names compiled by Sibo, who led the whole team, only had more than 1,500 people. Each person had six shi of brown rice per year, which was only 9,000 shi.
Not counting future expansion, the current number of people is only a small number compared to the income of Spozhong Fund, and the impact is not significant. "
Ishida Mitsunari spoke humbly, but Nizi Katsuhisa was speechless.
In recent times, Sibo received 200,000 shi, and the land was given to four public servants and six people, and his annual food income was only 80,000 shi.
These 80,000 dan also include the salary, military equipment, and military rations for becoming an official warrior. Even if you are frugal, the treasury can only save four to five thousand dan at most in a year.
The Shibachu Fund was established only ten years ago, but Mitsunari Ishida spent nearly 10,000 koku of brown rice a year, and he treated it as a trivial matter without blinking an eye. It is really rich.
Nizi Shengjiu couldn't help but be curious, she asked.
"Is the income of Spozhong Fund that high?"
Ishida Mitsunari glanced at Takada Haruno.
Nizi Katsuhisa is the top official of the Shiba family, so the income of the Shiba Tadashi Fund naturally does not need to be kept secret from her. But whether you say it or not, you still have to be careful to see what Takada Harano means.
Takada Yangno smiled reservedly and took over the conversation.
"The Hokuriku Road trade route has been developed for four years. From 300,000 guan in the first year to a large market estimated at 3 million to 3.5 million guan this year, it has already monopolized 70% of the logistics of Kanto-Kansai trade.
When the Sibo Zhong Fund was established, I went out to raise funds from various local warehouses, and all parties gave me a lot of respect. The start-up capital was far more than that of ordinary big businessmen, and the interest rate was very low.
Last year, Spozhong Fund developed rapidly and occupied 1.5% of the market share. Because of its excellent variety of goods, its gross profit exceeded 70%.
But this kind of huge profits cannot last long. As the share expands, it is impossible for every commodity to have such high profits.
According to my prediction, Spozhong Fund will probably occupy 20% of the market this year, and its gross profit will drop to about 30%. "
Nizi Katsuhisa himself is responsible for the management of the territory, so he is naturally proficient in arithmetic.
A 20% share of the three million market is 600,000 guan, and a 30% gross profit is 180,000 guan. After counting, she herself was shocked.
"One hundred and eighty thousand guan? What a shocking figure."
Ishida Mitsunari couldn't help but feel a little proud when he saw that all the girls were looking at him strangely, but he said modestly.
“This is only a rough prediction and cannot actually be achieved.
Settsu war, trading losses, transportation risks, land warehouse interest, all these factors will increase operating costs.
But I am still confident that I can make a profit of 100,000 yuan this year. "
Nizi Shengjiu nodded.
No wonder Ishida Mitsunari doesn't care about the expenditure of nearly 10,000 koku of brown rice. Her income of 100,000 koku is her confidence.
At the market price, brown rice and two stones are always exchanged for copper coins, but most of the time it is not accurate. The price of rice depends on the harvest, and copper coins are also divided into fine and bad coins. The exchange method is very complicated.
However, Sibo Yiyin's status and prestige were different. He purchased grain from local martial arts families several times and had formed an effective purchase system.
Along the Hokuriku Road trade route, the samurai family was willing to sell Shiba Yin for a face, and they could also exchange grain for shares in the trade route or rare commodities.
There is mutual benefit and win-win for both parties, and the price of rice will naturally be stable. A copper coin can be exchanged for two stones of grain.
