Sakai Port, the headquarters of the Shinsengumi. Because Takada Yukino is weak and can only sit in a wheelchair every day, the yard where she lives is carefully prepared by Takada Harano.
Try not to use stairs, but use slopes instead to make it easier for your sister to get in and out. In order to allow my sister to enjoy more facilities without being discharged from the hospital, many arrangements were made in the hospital.
Today, Takada Yono brought Imai Munehisa to visit. In the small tea room in Yukino's courtyard, the tea master who was invited by Yangno at a high price showed off his talents with all his heart, but Yukino was absent-minded and stared blankly at the porch of his room in the distance.
On the porch, little Yayoi had just changed a basin of water and was working hard on the floor to wipe it. When the tea man presented the tea, Yangno waved her away and said to Yukino.
"I'm really impressed by you. What's so good about a child cleaning the floor? You can actually stare at it for a long time. I paid a lot of money for this tea man. Although he is not as skilled as Jing Zongjiu, he is still a rare gentleman. . You can give me some face and appreciate her a little bit." Yukino glanced at Yangno and said lightly.
"It's nice to clean the floor. I was very good at cleaning the floor back then." Yangno rolled his eyes.
"You are so good at it. You were always clumsy at that time, and you would spill the water every time, seeping into the wooden boards and getting moldy. I don't know how many times I got beaten by the supervisor in order to help you take the blame. If your Majesty hadn't been kind since childhood, then If the floor is not wiped clean once, and you slip and get injured, it is enough for you and me to be beaten to death." Yuxeno ignored Yangno's complaints and showed an inexplicable smile at the corner of her mouth.
She looked at little Yayoi kneeling there and worked hard, and thought of Tachibana Kanade kneeling on Junshang's crotch instead of her, so she was naturally in a good mood.
But you can't say this to your sister, she will be jealous. Yangno didn't feel that Yukino was perfunctory at all, and Imai Munehisa on the side joked.
"The two adults are blessed. They grew up around saints and are the envy of others." Yang Nai nodded and said with a smile.
"Yes, it's time to change your name and call yourself a saint." As the miracles on the Yuwu Lake battlefield were deliberately guided and spread, more and more people called Shiba Yiyin a saint, which meant that he recognized his Bishamonten divinity.
The concept of a living god walking around the world has slowly penetrated into the thinking of the world, and the fastest people to change their minds are businessmen and nuns.
At this point, Takada Haruno is not even as calm as Nakai Muneku. He changes as soon as he wants. He really knows how to follow the general trend and has a smooth temperament.
Imai Sojiu asked with a smile.
"I heard that the saint is coming to Sakai Port for a parade?" Takada Yono glanced at her and said.
"It is indeed true. The saint traveled lightly on this trip and did not alarm the local martial arts family. Don't talk too much outside, lest someone take the opportunity to flatter you and make the saint unhappy." Soujiu Imai bowed and said.
"My subordinates understand and don't dare to talk nonsense outside. It's just that the saint's trip is a bit urgent. I heard that the diplomats of the Shiba Oda family are negotiating at Fushimi Castle to discuss the boundaries and allocate ownership. At this important moment, His Highness Oda is in Azuchi The city is waiting patiently, but the saint wants to leave Kyoto and come to Sakai Port. It is very strange." Takada Yono scoffed.
"What's so strange? Saints also have saints' troubles. I came to Sakai Port for the reward after the war." Imai Munehisa was shocked.

"You want money?" She just blurted out, and she noticed that Xueno's eyes swept over her coldly, and her heart suddenly trembled. She knew that her words were a bit presumptuous to Meng Lang, so she quickly kowtowed to the ground.
"This subordinate is guilty of using disrespectful words." Yangno sighed to Yukino.
"How come you, a weakling, are more powerful than me? Imai Munehisa is the Shiba family's most capable business person in Sakai Port. He has a high status, but he can be frightened to the ground by just one look from you." Haruno looked at him. It seems like he is complaining, but in fact he is helping Imai Munehisa out of trouble and begging Yukino for mercy.
Even though Yangno was picky about Yukino all day long, she was actually frightened by this arbitrary and moody sister.
Yukino's Mikazuki Munechika was given to Tachibana Kanade, but the favor of Ashikaga Yoshiteru and Shiba Yoshigan belonged to her.
He acted arbitrarily, beheading first and then telling the truth, killing when he was told to kill. Looking at the entire Shiba family, it was Yukino, a semi-invalid person with privileges, who had the most murderous intent and carried his crimes with him.
Imai Munehisa was born as a merchant. No matter how high he climbed, how could he not be afraid? Yukino glanced at Imai Munehisa, remembering that she was still useful to Shiba Yoshigan, and stopped pursuing it.
"Forget it." Imai Munehisa breathed a sigh of relief, and Yangno explained to her again. cockroach
"In troubled times, wars require money, and ending wars requires even more money. Money and food are poured out like water, and gold and silver are not enough. Even if a saint is a god descending to earth, he still has to spend money to come to this world. Is there anything strange about it?" Imai Munehisa smiled bitterly.
"But, Mr. Haruno, you didn't just help the saint raise two million dan for military expenses in the spring. Now you have to raise money again. Isn't it too exaggerated?" Takada Haruno shook his head and said.
"If you don't have a family, you don't know the value of firewood and rice. If you don't raise children, you don't know the kindness of your parents. Yukino, don't look at me. I'm not saying that saints spend money indiscriminately. I'm scolding those bastards in the military for being extravagant and extravagant. The military is a gold-eating beast. Military expenses are something like this. As long as you dare to give it, the military will dare to spend it. No matter how much the budget is, it will be spent completely for you, and you will not be able to make mistakes. But who dares to talk too much and settle accounts with those arrogant military wives who lick blood from their swords? ? These are troubled times, and the army is the guarantee of the family fortune. How can we save rewards? As long as the army is willing to work hard to fight, even a saint will turn a blind eye or close an eye. How can he chip away at his own foundation? "After listening to Yangono's words, Yukino remained silent, and Imai Muneku couldn't help but sigh.
"We just raised two million stones at the beginning of the spring, and now it's all spent. The saint is coming to Sakai Port soon. Where can we collect money and food for the saint? One hundred thousand people mobilized in the spring and summer, and tens of thousands were killed and injured. According to you "I'm afraid a little money and food won't be able to send these heroes away." Takada Yono subconsciously rubbed his temples and said.

"Your Majesty sent me a letter before setting off, and he revealed some details in the letter. For this reward, all the coalition forces took the initiative to give up their land and practice, and they also sang the praises of the saint's miracles. The saint was very pleased, and naturally wanted to reward him greatly. . If there is no land, the money and food will be doubled. The mountain calls the sage, everyone will have a red envelope. Imai-hime, be prepared. Without two million stones this time, we will not be able to pass the test." Imai Munejiu said with a bitter face.
"Sir, you don't know the situation in the account. It's two million dan. Even if you kill me immediately and confiscate my home, I can't make it up." Yukino didn't care about Imai Mun's death. She just Concerned about Sibo Yiyin's current predicament, he asked.
cockroach
"Sister, is there any way to help the saint?" Takada Yono smiled proudly.
"Of course there is." Yangno specially talked about this matter in front of Xueno today, because he needed Xueno's power for something.
Although Imai Munehisa did not have a relationship with Yono in advance, she was very clear-minded and naturally understood the purpose of Yono's trip, so she cooperated with Yono in a tacit understanding and sang the double act in front of Yukino.
At this moment, Yukino couldn't help but ask, and she had already fallen into Yangono's calculation. Yukino may not understand this double act, but she doesn't care. As long as it is beneficial to Shiba Yoshigan, she will be used.
Haoyang looked like she had the pearls of wisdom in her hand, waiting for Yukino to ask her, but Yukino looked at Imai Munehisa and asked.
"Is the situation very bad?" Imai Munehisa glanced at the unhappy Harano and said cautiously, not daring not to answer.
"It's very bad. Originally, due to the issuance of stocks on the Hokurikudo Trading Road and the successful auction of the two phases of Shiba Real Estate, the value of the Shiba food stamps once shot up to 1:4. In other words, a one-stone denomination of the Shiba grain stamps can be exchanged for four stones of brown rice. ." Xueno asked in surprise.
cockroach
"Isn't this great?" Imai Muneji sighed.
"Because Shanglu Stock and Sibo Real Estate only accept Sibo food stamps for purchase, in order to enter the market, the face value of Sibo food stamps has also increased. But the good momentum has been broken. In order to support the saints in the battle, we bought the tickets at the end of winter and early spring. , issued a large number of food stamps on an urgent basis, and obtained two million stone of supplies. Part of these military expenditures were used for procurement at Sakai Port, part was delivered to Naojiangjin Customs Office for procurement, and the remaining part was handed over to various places for nearby procurement. Because the use area is spread across recent decades Kanto has caused a rapid proliferation of Sibo food stamps on the market, leading to rapid devaluation. From spring to now, in just six months, the face value of Sibo food stamps has quickly dropped from one to four to one to one. It is a benefit granted to Shiba by your Majesty. The face value requires the redemption of corresponding grain, so a one-to-one exchange must be maintained. The road of continuing to issue new food stamps is no longer feasible, and other methods must be thought of." Yukino nodded.
At the beginning, Sibo food stamps were used to pay for food compiled by Sibo. Now, the Sibo Zhong Fund has distributed all benefits in the form of food stamps, so a one-to-one hard payment is the bottom line.
This is the welfare food given by Shiba Yiyin to Samurai Shiba, and it cannot be lost. If one stone of food stamps cannot be exchanged for one stone of grain, it means that Sibo Yiyin has broken its promise to Samurai Siboji, and the political impact will be extremely bad.
Therefore, continuing to issue food stamps indiscriminately at this stage is an act of political suicide and should never be done again. Xiaoxue Nai looked at Yang Nai, who smiled.
"It is not impossible to print another two million stone of food stamps and give them to the emperor to reward meritorious officials. But we must find a new reservoir to store the excess food stamps before printing more food stamps. Bei Ludao Trading has a logistics value of 5 million guan every year, and its profit is about 10%, which is 500,000 guan. After several stock splits, the total stock price of Ludao Trading has reached 10 million guan. Together, they made a total of five to six million yuan, and the equity can no longer be diluted for the time being. If it continues to be diluted, those who have newly bought the shares of the trading route will understand that they have been cut off. Therefore, the Hokuriku Road trading route The reservoir is full and cannot be moved." Yukino's eyes moved.
"Where's Spo Real Estate?" Xiang Yangnai shook his head.
"Shiba Real Estate was sold in two phases, and only Shiba food stamps were allowed to be traded. The big buyer came from Owari. The Oda family expanded too fast, and the Owari old samurai family held a large amount of wealth in their hands. They were afraid of His Highness Oda's moodiness and were willing to Come to Sibo Real Estate to invest some money, buy some property, and leave a way out. After this battle of Sibo Oda, the status of Sibo Real Estate has become more stable, the real estate potential is greater, and a large number of residential shops can be sold at better prices. But the problem is, we don’t have time to build it. People bring real money to buy a house. You must at least have a house for them, right? You can’t just take their money and let them go back and wait for the house to be built? Goods, this has been the principle of doing business since ancient times. How can there be any fool in the world who gives money and then goes home and waits for the house to be built? Therefore, although the house sells well, we don’t have time to build it, so we expect Spoel Real Estate to swallow up two million You have to wait at least several years for food stamps. But now, the reward from the saint is imminent, and I can’t wait." Yukino looked at Yangno and said.
"It doesn't work on the left, it doesn't work on the right. Sister, if you have any idea, just tell me directly." Yukino is most annoyed by these trivial business matters. She just needs to know what method Yangno has thought of and what kind of help she came to seek. .
Yukino is willing to do anything as long as it can help Shiba Yiyin tide over the difficulties. As for the specific details, she became a little impatient.
Xiao Yang smiled.
"Yukino, do you know that due to the Battle of Shiba Oda, the Hokurikudo trade route was temporarily cut off. Ishida Mitsunari was worried about the grain shortage in various granaries due to the interruption of logistics, so he turned to the sage for help. The sage gave Ishida Mitsunari an idea. For Shiba The food stamps in the hands of Ji Jiji are reverse repurchased at an interest rate of five cents a year, and the excess food stamps are recovered for savings, helping the granary survive the run crisis." Yukino murmured.
"Reverse repurchase of food stamps?" Yang Nai nodded. cockroach
"Yes, there are too many food stamps on the market now, because two million stone food stamps quickly entered the market, causing flooding of liquidity, and the rapid devaluation of food stamps has endangered the existence of the food stamps themselves. I want to ask your Majesty for some The right to reverse repurchase of food stamps uses interest to attract food stamps on the market. The transactions of Shanglu stock and Sibo Real Estate require the use of Sibo food stamps. Once the number of food stamps on the market decreases, participants who want to trade will The price must be raised to receive food stamps. In this case, the face value of food stamps will stabilize again. I do not ask for food stamps to return to the previous high level of one to four, but as long as the one to one level can be maintained, let me put the new If the two million stone grain stamps printed are put into the market and there are no problems, it will be considered a success." Yukino was confused, and Imai Munehisa on the side seemed to understand and said.
"I also know a thing or two about the reverse repurchase of food stamps, but the interest rate of 5 cents is too small. I'm afraid not many food stamps will be attracted to participate in the reverse repurchase." Xiao Yangnai said with a smile.
"Then raise interest rates. The current total value of Shanglu stocks is about 10 million guan, but the actual market revenue is 5 million guan a year, and the dividend is only 500,000 guan. In other words, the annual profit of Shanglu stocks Dividends are only worth five cents, which is the same as the five-cent interest on the reverse repurchase of food stamps. As long as the interest rate on the reverse repurchase of food stamps is higher than the dividends of Shanglu stock, some people will be tempted to put their food stamps in their hands. Reverse repurchase to obtain higher interest. As for Spo real estate, due to the miracle of the saint, the security of Spo real estate has increased unprecedentedly, so the price has increased rapidly recently. We have raised interest rates through reverse repurchase of food stamps, and have withdrawn There are a large number of food stamps on the market and lack of liquidity, so the value of the food stamps on the market will appreciate. Then, the newly printed food stamps will be gradually put into the market, devaluing the food stamps back to the one-to-one exchange ratio. While collecting Water, while pouring water, until the two million new food stamps are released, and the two million stone materials used by the emperor to reward meritorious ministers are obtained. In other words, as long as the emperor allows me to succeed Ishida Mitsunari and control the food stamp reverse Repurchase and grant me the power to adjust the interest on food stamps. I promise to print another two million stone of food stamps immediately, so that your Majesty can have enough money and food to reward those who have made contributions in this battle. As long as the value of the food stamps is stable , whether you need food stamps or supplies, it’s no problem!”
