Chapter 115: Let me take you to Kyoto
Gao Xianda looked at a large lump of ambergris in Suspensa Saemon's hand that was bigger than a basketball.
Such a large piece may be more than ten kilograms.
If one or two ambergris can be worth 100 guan, then 10 jin of ambergris is 10,000 guan!
Even for Gao Xianda, this is a huge amount of money.
Gao Xianda cheated the three valuable items of Erlang Bingwei from Younoya, which are only worth 1,000 guan. Such a piece of stuff can be worth 10,000 guan!
If this is not called "windowed wealth from heaven", Gao Xianda would not know what "windowed wealth from heaven" means!
This money has been enough to help Zaemon make a long time profit by selling fish.
So Takashida looked at Susaimon, narrowed his eyes and smiled.
Susuke Zaemon naturally understood what was going on. But he had a very high likeness for Gao Xianda and was basically in a state of surrender. He quickly stated: "Sir, this ambergris was something I could only get with your blessing. In fact, it is your property. I am willing to go to Kyoto for you to sell it and exchange it for money to serve as the military funds of the Imakawa family!"
This caught Gao Xianda a little off guard. He didn't expect that the treasure he had made for help Zaemon was willing to give it to him so easily after he had done a lot of trouble.
Gao Xianda felt a little soft-hearted and said, "No, no, this is a treasure I have obtained through hard work. How can I take it alone? I don't want it, so you should keep it! You ran away from your hometown and ran to Jun Mansion to do business. Isn't it just money? If you don't tell me, who knows that this thing is so valuable?"
Susuke Zaemon hurriedly said, "But I have been in Junfu for so long and have never had such good luck. If it weren't for your admiration for your face and treating me to drink, how could I have such good luck to encounter a stranded sperm whale?"
Susuke Zaemon insisted on giving this piece of stuff to Gao Xianda. Of course, Gao Xianda could not accept it.
Finally, Gao Xianda proposed a compromise solution: "In this way, we all take a step back, just think that this discovery is our common contribution, half of each person. After all, you still have to spend your energy to sell this thing in Kyoto, and I can't watch it. In this way, I will accompany you, which is not to protect your safety, just think that I want to go to Kyoto for a walk."
Gao Xianda originally wanted to go to Kyoto, but after saying this, it became much more impressive. It immediately moved Suspensaemon.
"Sir, you can actually do this to protect my safety. I am so moved by the little guy!" Suzusaemon actually cried.
Gao Xianda had no choice but to quickly pat him, expressing comfort, saying that he was a man, crying and how he looked like.
At this time, a guy outside knocked on the guys and came in to report to Susanzaemon. As a result, from his perspective, it seemed like Takashenda held Susanzaemon in his arms.
The guy turned around and retreated without saying a word.
When Gao Xianda saw this, he felt quite depressed and said to himself: "I like women! I don't raise a little surname! Even if I raise it, I can't grow up like this!"
Unfortunately, Gao Xianda has no way to explain.
This trip was not Shangluo. In fact, it was just Gao Xianda's personal behavior, and Gao Xianda could not lead his troops to travel.
The 250 cavalrymen in his hands were said to be more than more, and the fewer were said to be less.
If there are few, they are all elite, brave in combat and well-equipped. In terms of equipment purchase costs, they are enough to equip a bamboo gun foot light force with several thousand people.
But if there are too many people, the number of people is indeed not enough. It is obvious that the siege of cities is not enough, but if it is seen by other daimyos, it will definitely cause alertness.
From Ohachi to Kyoto, you have to go through the territory of many powerful daimyos such as Saito, Hexao, Asakura, Miyo. Although these old-fashioned strong daimyos are not as powerful as the Imakawa family, they are still more powerful than the Oda family.
Imakawa Yoshimoto organized 20,000 troops, but he might not dare to say that he would win. Gao Xianda's cavalry was only enough to be stuck between his teeth.
So it's better not to bring it. Gao Xianda followed the caravan of Nawu and could completely disguise himself as an ordinary businessman.
These cavalrymen were handed over to his grandfather, and Takeda Nobuki would come to train.
After being baptized by the war, these cavalry must have absorbed a lot of nutrition. After the training of Takeda Nobuki, they believe that their combat effectiveness can reach a new level.
That night, Gao Xianda returned to Junfu Castle and reported to Imakawa Yoshimoto, who was going to travel.
Imakawa Yoshimoto said: "Now you are the head of the family and I am a retainer. You don't need to discuss this kind of thing with me."
Gao Xianda hurriedly said, "My father, don't say that. No matter when, I am your son! Is there nothing caring about me between us father and son?"
Since he said that, Imakawa Yoshimoto didn't take his own attitude and said, "At this time, you will go to Kyoto to do business, it's really better. I'm just worried about your safety."
Gao Xianda said: "I also have some powerful subordinates around me, so there should be no problems with safety."
"That's good." Imakawa Yoshimoto said, "Although our Imakawa family nominally wanted to go to Luo, it was also damaged by a sneak attack by Oda Nobunaga. Although it annexed the entire territory of Ozawa, it was impossible to fight a powerful daimyo like Saito without a few years of cultivation. And the old guy Takeda Shingen is famously treason, and even his father can be exiled, let alone an ally like us? If he discovers our weakness, he will definitely take the opportunity to sneak attack us. Fortunately, as long as I stay in Junfu City, there should be no problem. But the matter of Go to Luo will come to an end for the time being."
"The boy knows." Gao Xianda said. Imakawa Yoshimoto was broken by Oda Nobunaga, and he lost the glory of his determination to unify the world. However, his political vision and internal affairs ability are still there, so there should be no problem staying at home.
"But we have still annexed the Ozawa territory after all, so at this time, if we go to Kyoto to establish a good relationship with the public, there is no problem if we want a few official positions." Imakawa Yoshimoto said, "We can also take this opportunity to promote the reputation of the Imakawa family. I heard that the new head of the Saito family, Saito Ryuki, is a waste. We will deter them, and it is very likely that they can be brought under our command without a single soldier!"
Hearing this, Gao Xianda's eyes naturally lit up.
Imakawa Yoshimoto said again: "So I hope you can visit these powerful daimyos along the way and see their attitudes. As the head of the family, you go there in person, and they will always give you some face. Soon you can tell whether these people are fake or real hard-core. This will be very helpful for our next plan."
