Liu Dao just smiled and did not answer the other party's words. He paused and then said: "Aren't you curious as to why I came to find you?"
"If you want to tell me, you don't have to ask, you will tell me." Hosokawa Mokiyuki said with a smile, "After all, you are so heroic, you will definitely not treat a friend like me badly, right? Of course,
I will not treat my friend badly."
Friend? You are a barbarian, but you want to be friends with me? Yanado raised his eyes and stared at Hosokawa Noriyuki. If he hadn’t said the last words, he might have turned against him on the spot. He was not just someone who came out casually.
Cats and dogs can be Liu Dao’s friends. Liu Dao’s friends are all friends who have a life-long friendship.
Liu Dao suddenly burst into laughter, and then said in a mysterious manner: "I am here this time to bring you good news."
Having said this, Liu Dao immediately lowered his head, closed his eyes slightly, and said no more.
Hosokawa Noriyuki was listening with his ears bent, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't wait for Liu Dao's words. When he looked up and saw Liu Dao's posture, he understood immediately.
He smiled and said, "My lord, please stay a moment and arrange some things down there."
"Yes." Liu Dao opened his eyes when he heard this, looked at him, and nodded slightly.
Hosokawa Mokiyuki stood up and walked out, stretched out his hand to call a servant, and said: "Go and report to the master that I need one hundred taels of gold here."
The servant immediately bowed in response to Hosokawa Noriyuki, and then went to report to the master.
Noriyuki Hosokawa turned around and returned to the house.
Liu Dao looked at him coming back empty-handed and thought he didn't understand what he meant. His face suddenly darkened and he said, "What do you mean?"
Hosokawa Noriyuki smiled and said, "How about you drink some tea first?"
Liu Dao also realized that he was a little too eager, and a sip of tea could just calm him down.
While Ryuudao was drinking tea, a servant came in with a wooden box and placed it on the table in front of Hosokawa Noriyuki, then bowed his body and walked out.
Liu Dao glanced at the wooden box. This box was exactly the same as the one given to him twice before. Could it be that there was another hundred taels of gold in it? If so, then he would have really made a fortune. A word would make a fortune.
One hundred taels of gold, Liu Dao had never dreamed of getting this kind of money.
Hosokawa Mochiichi put his hand on the wooden box, gently pushed it in front of Liu Dao, and said with a smile: "Can you speak now, sir?"
Liu Dao glanced at him, then looked down at the wooden box, stretched out his hand to open the wooden box, and found that it was indeed gold that he was familiar with, and even the amount was the same as the previous two times.
Liu Dao immediately closed the wooden box, laughed, and said, "By the way, where did I mention just now? Oh, I remembered it, it's good news."
Seeing Hosokawa Mokiyuki looking at him with a smile, Liu Dao continued: "The good news is that the Governor has agreed to sell all the grain to you."
Hosokawa Mochiyuki's heart seemed to be caught by an invisible force for an instant, making people hold their breath involuntarily, and asked hurriedly: "How much grain are you willing to sell to me, the Governor?"
"One million stones." Liu Dao raised a finger.
Hosokawa Mokiyuki was overjoyed when he heard this. He quickly reacted and asked: "What about the price?"
"The Governor-General said, it will be at your price." After relaying the Governor-General's words, Liu Dao remained silent. He just pressed one hand firmly on the wooden box, waiting for Hosokawa Noriyuki's next words.
Hosokawa Mochiyuki's heart was torn as if he was experiencing a magnitude 10 earthquake. When his master told him the day before yesterday that the Governor's Palace would sell grain to them at double the price, he didn't quite believe it.
Now they are not the only buyers in the Governor's Mansion. The Ashikaga clan are still in the Governor's Mansion. How could he sell grain to them at such a price? In his own opinion, if he faced such a situation,
He will always choose to wait for the price and sell.
"Sir, my lord, this is really great news." For a moment, Hosokawa Noriyuki couldn't find any words to describe it, so he had to say it reluctantly.
Liu Dao immediately felt relieved. Since the other party was satisfied, the gold would be his. He smiled and said, "Then is this news worth it to you?"
As he spoke, he glanced at the wooden box.
Hosokawa Mochiyuki immediately understood what Ryugo meant, nodded quickly and said: "It's worth it, it's worth a thousand dollars."
After hearing this, Liu Dao generously took the wooden box over. He stood up and said, "Since you're satisfied, that's good. I have something to do today, so I won't bother you anymore. I'll take my leave!"
"Sir, please walk slowly. I'll see you off." Hosokawa Mokiyuki also stood up and raised his hand towards Liu Dao in response.
How could Liu Dao be willing to let him deliver it? It would be bad if someone saw it. He quickly declined and said: "Stay here, I can just go out by myself."
What Hosokawa Noriyuki wants most now is to report the news to his master immediately, and he is not willing to give away the sword.
He was wasting time. So he borrowed the donkey from the slope and shouted outside, "Come here, let me see you out."
Liu Dao did not refuse anymore and left here with the visitor.
After watching Yanagawa turn the corner, Hosokawa Mokiyuki hurriedly looked for the owner.
Arriving outside the door of Komatsu Reiko's room, Hosokawa Noriyuki suddenly lost the hurried momentum he had just now, and couldn't help but get up lightly. He even wanted to turn around and go back if it wasn't a serious matter.
Just when Hosokawa Mokiyuki didn't know whether to wait outside the door or go in directly to report, Komatsu Reiko's voice came from inside.
"Come in."
When Noriyuki Hosokawa heard this, he immediately stepped into the house and saw Reiko Komatsu reading a book. ??
Looking from the direction of Noriyuki Hosokawa, one can clearly see that the book in the owner's hand is Jinsilu.
"Master, good news."
Komatsu Reiko kept her eyes on the book. Without waiting for Hosokawa Noriyuki to say anything, she said, "Is the Governor's Office willing to sell grain to us?"
"Master is really a prophet! Yes, Liu Dao just came to send a message that the Governor's Office has agreed to sell grain." Hosokawa Mokiyuki quietly flattered him.
What made Hosokawa Noriyuki feel strange was that in the face of such a great thing, the master looked calm and calm. Even the expression on his face did not change at all. Hosokawa Noriyuki asked himself, what if
If it were his long-cherished wish that had come true for many days, he would definitely be extremely happy. How could he be as immovable as his master?
"I got it." Komatsu Reiko raised her eyes and looked at Hosokawa Noriyuki calmly, and ordered: "Go down and prepare to buy food."
Hosokawa Noriyuki suddenly thought of something and said with some embarrassment: "But Master, the Governor's Office requires that you pay money in one hand and food in the other. We don't have enough money, so I'm afraid we won't be able to buy so much food."
Without even raising his head, Komatsu Lingzi said, "You don't have to worry about the money. I had already sent someone back when you found out how much food there was in the Governor's Mansion."
So he sent people back so early. Could it be that the master had already planned to sell the grain to him at the Governor's Mansion? One can imagine the shock in Hosokawa Mokiyuki's heart.
Facing his master's oppressive eyes, Hosokawa Mochiyuki immediately bowed and replied: "Since there is no problem with money, I think we need to hold on to the Governor's Palace now to prevent them from regretting it."
Komatsu Reiko nodded noncommittally and said
Said: "I'll leave this matter to you."
"Yes." Hosokawa Mokiyuki replied immediately, and then respectfully exited the door with the owner's wave.
After Hosokawa Mokiyuki left, Komatsu Reiko suddenly closed the book in her hand and put it on the table. Her eyes became brighter than candlelight, and she said to herself: "It's only been two days, and it turned out that
I can persuade the governor to sell the grain to me, but at this price, it seems that I have underestimated the relationship between Xu Chengfei and the governor. Xu Chengfei, who are you?"
In the eyes of Komatsu Reiko, Xu Chengfei is very mysterious. Every time she sees Xu Chengfei, it seems that she can easily see through him at a glance. But every time she thinks she has seen through Xu Chengfei, she will find that all she has seen is
This is just one side of Xu Chengfei, and there is something even more unknown about him.
Xu Chengfei kept saying in front of her that he was just a maritime merchant, but what kind of maritime merchant could be as smart as him, not only able to obtain the food of the Ming Dynasty, but also able to avoid navy patrols and transport it to Jeolla Province?
Come?
According to Komatsu Reiko, Xu Chengfei had an extraordinary identity and status at least among the Ming Dynasty court and the navy. Only in this way could he transport the Ming Dynasty's grain here without being discovered.
But when it comes to Xu Chengfei's appointment as an official of the Ming Dynasty, that doesn't make sense. Based on Komatsu Lingzi's understanding, Ming officials cannot easily leave their territory, let alone leave the Ming Dynasty?
Anyway, the more Komatsu Reiko wanted to see Xu Chengfei clearly, the more she felt Xu Chengfei's mystery, as if there was a veil covering his body. It made her see hazy, but it still aroused her.
The desire to uncover this veil. It was this curiosity that made her use the onmyoji method to be honest with Xu Chengfei when she was alone with him.
Since Han Du was tricked by Komatsu Lingzi once, he felt ashamed and annoyed. At the same time, he was extremely glad that Komatsu Lingzi had no ill intentions towards him, and he even took advantage of her.
However, it was not easy to take advantage of this advantage. For this reason, Han Du was blackmailed by her into selling the grain to her. Not to mention, the loss in price alone would cost a million dollars even if it was half.
If you lose a million dollars in one sleep, this is probably the most expensive sleep in the world.
Because of this incident, Han Du himself began to wake up. He was still too careless, thinking that with the revolver around him, no one here could do anything to him. But he never thought that even with the revolver, he would not be able to avoid encounters.
Some weird methods can make you lose the power to resist in an instant.
