Chapter 1527: Shi Wende, unexpectedly meets Kiyoshi Morino
The location where the delegation of people settled in is the guest hotel in Ningbo City, not very far from the beautiful Yuehu Lake. The so-called "guests" naturally refer to "officials" from afar or "far" from afar
The envoys of foreign countries have nothing to do with ordinary people.
In fact, there are almost no ordinary neighbors around this guest hotel, and there are few people who are active. The arrangement of the people's mission in such a remote location is also to minimize the number of people.
The connection with the local people in Ningbo has a clear sense of defense!
Of course, the size of the Heren Tribute fleet this time is far beyond NB Maritime Corporation's expectations. In fact, this is also the butterfly effect brought by the kingdom's gold trade with Heguo.
Originally, Hosokawa and the Shogunate could not bring out so many goods to trade with the Ming Kingdom. And Kiyoshi Morino brought a large amount of gold, which allowed the tribute fleet to buy more expensive Ming Kingdom goods.
, and thus added ships for returning to shipping cargo. This led to eight large ships, five belonging to the Hosokawa clan, two belonging to the shogunate, and one belonging to the Tentai Sect, which expanded the mission to eight ships, seven or eight hundred
people!
So many militants poured in, which caused a headache for the local yamen in Ningbo. Even if the more than 400 strong militants were removed, they still felt a sense of a barbarian spirit. Once they had any trouble,
It is not possible for the archers and constables who arrested tax evasion farmers in the county government to suppress them. In the past two days, the Administrator issued an emergency document and transferred more than 2,000 bare-handed guards and soldiers to reissue the owed ones.
After a year of food, I used swords, spears, leather armor and armor all night, and they were all stationed outside Ningbo Port.
After all arrangements were made, the Administrator ordered the inspector to let the Heren tributary fleet enter the port. The Heren warriors in the fleet were ordered not to enter the city and could only move around the port.
Now that the guest hotels in the city have a certain degree of freedom of movement, there are only a hundred people who will go to the capital in the mission, that is, the upper class of the mission.
"The guest hotel's west gate is inscribed, "Huaiyuan is virtue"? The east gate is inscribed, "View the light of the country"?... There are two cards in the hall, "Submit the text", "Release the notice"?... There are four cards outside the hall, "Rising the fire," Ri Jinghuo
Kiyo Morino was wearing a monk's robe and with his hands on his back, wandering around the guesthouse with great enthusiasm. There was a vague argument in the main hall in the hall. Some of those disputes were anxious and some were determined Tang Yan, and sometimes they were voices.
It's very big, sometimes silent.
"Buddha, from morning to now, I have been fighting for two hours, and are still fighting here? These big merchants from Ningbo are really calm and relaxed, and they don't let go at all. It seems that the merchants from Sakai Port are afraid this time
I'm going to suffer a loss..."
After listening to it, Kiyoshi Morino heard it, it was all about trade disputes, nothing more than high prices. But he didn't care much, just smiled meaninglessly. This time the tribute trade was dominated by the merchants from Sakai Port.
Everyone brought him to a high position in the mission where he was "living" and the meaning of this was nothing more than to let him be peaceful and be a "rich man" who paid for the money and not interfere in specific trade affairs.
"You are so elegant when you sit in the forest! You are so relaxing and relaxing when you enjoy the house and enjoy the scenery here."
"Ah! Duke Yao, you can't sit still? The houses in Ming Dynasty are so grand, they are exquisite and sturdy... I'll see how this was made, and read the inscriptions on the walls.
It is full of extraordinary brushwork and charming..."
"Haha! The museum is quarreling from morning to night. Ningbo's wealthy merchants bit the price to death, and the Sakai Port merchants don't accept it at all... They really can't sit still."
The envoy Yaofu Shouhuang smiled bitterly, shook his head helplessly, and escaped from the guest hotel. He now also changed into a monk's robe from Linji Sect, standing side by side with Morino Kiyo from Tiantai Sect, revealing two
A bald head is quite interesting. When he heard Kiyoshi Morino's words, he looked up at the inscription on the east gate of the guesthouse, pondered for a little while, and said with a smile.
"'View the light of the country'? This should come from the "Xiang Ci" in the Book of Changes, right?'The fourth line of Guan Gua, the line text: June 4: Observe the light of the country and use the guest to the king.'... Cheng Zi once said,
'In ancient times, there were virtuous people, and the king was respected by the king. Therefore, when a scholar advances into a dynasty, he is called a guest.'... The ancient meaning of this sentence is to follow a wise monarch and become an official like a guest invited by a king... But
When used in the "guest hotel" where the delegation is receiving the mission, there is also a view of the political and religious customs of other countries, and it means to think about the meaning of reference!..."
"Uh? I look at the light of the country and use my guest to the king?... What Yaofu Gong said is so true! The Book of Changes is really an immortal classic that has been passed down through the ages!... This time I came to Ningbo, I only had two wishes, one was to visit the names of the people.
Another thing about the ancient temple is to buy more Ming Dynasty classics and pass them on to the writers!”
Hearing the interpretation of Yaofu Shouhuang's extremely high level of Chinese medicine, Morino's forehead sweated, hesitated for a few words, and turned around stiffly. He asked him to argue that the Buddhist scriptures were okay, but he really wanted to talk about the "Four Books and Five Classics" of the Tang people.
That really made the six orifices clear in the seven orifices, but the rest didn't.
In the current country, only the poor scholars and ministers in Kyoto who study hard will make great efforts in this kind of ineffective Tang Dynasty classics. However, such Tang Dynasty classics can indeed be used for the Shantar Chiefs.
The previous set. Regardless of whether the other party can understand it or not, at least this is the official school of the Ming Dynasty, which is "extremely precious" and will definitely be sold at a good price!
"Haha! Senju sat. Since there is an inscription in this east gate, there must be a Ximen! Tell me out, take the test... Hum? Huaiyuan Yide? This seems to be a sentence in "Zuo Zhuan"? Guan Zhong said to Yu Qi
The Hou said: I heard that I would like to bring rituals and to be far away from virtue. It is not easy for virtue and etiquette to be unfamiliar, and everyone is worried about it.'... Interesting! This refers to the attitude towards the Gentile vassal states, and to educate the Gentile barbarians and to subdue them.
It's…”
Yaofu Shou Huang Tan was very strong. He pulled Morino Kiyo's sleeve and wanted to talk to the other party about ancient times. Morino Kiyo smiled bitterly. When he looked around, he suddenly saw a tall and strong wise man wearing an inappropriate literati uniform.
The tall Ming man was chasing his face and running out. Behind the tall Ming man, he was chasing a middle-aged Sakaigang businessman and shouted in surprise.
"Shisang, although you don't remember me, I remember you! Ten years ago, Ling Zun took ten sea boats and docked at Hirado Wharf... I happened to make an appointment with Hirado Matsuura to purchase goods and meet at the port.
We also drank sake together at the Matsuura greeting dinner!"
"Shi Sang! I have always remembered your heroic and generous singing! Now, you have become a polite official of the Ming people? I believe that with Lingzun's strength, he must be the name of a vassal state with real power among the Ming people, right?
…Come here and say something fair for us! …”
"Shi Sang! The Ningbo merchants who came to this day are really too bullying! The price of the silk they sold is twice as expensive than the silk you transported to Hirado in person! ... Especially the leader Yang Family, the Yang Family
, he dared to threaten us. As long as Yang doesn't nod, no one will sell us silk. And the price of silk they set is the price of the entire Ningbo City, which is really too bullying!..."
The middle-aged Sakai Port merchant ran very fast, without caring about his demeanor at all, but surpassed the sturdy and powerful man in a scribe uniform and was bound to his feet. Then, he panted, grabbed Shi Wende's sleeve and stopped the other party.
Deep bow and ritual.
"Shisang, Buddha looked at us! The Tang goods you sold to Matsuura before were sold to us, and they were sold to Sakaigang. Please take advantage of the friendship between Reizun and Matsuura and use your silk channel.
, introduce it to us!...We are willing to give you 20% of the taps, no, 30% of them, and you can eat as many as you want!..."
"Why!…"
Shi Wende stood outside the east gate of the guesthouse and slowly lowered his palm covering his face, revealing a bitter face. The traces of wind, frost and sun on the sea remained on his face and neck, no matter how much powder was applied,
It is hard to hide it, and it is incompatible with those elegant and fair-skinned gentry men.
And these traces are like the mark of the maritime merchants of the Chongming Shi family. Even though he tried his best to win the fame of Juren and tried every means to stick them up, he was still as humble in front of those famous Jinshi clans.
Out of place!
Just think of the moment when he was recognized by someone, the West Lake Lu family in the business group sneered gently, and the fun-loving gaze of Yang family in Jingchuan... Shi Wende's face was like a prisoner's word stabbed, which made him ashamed and painful.
Humble! At this moment, he gritted his teeth hard, and once again thought of the beating of the Zhejiang governor Wang Zhe. He made up his mind to say goodbye to the Shi family's invisible sea pass by!
"このおっ, rude いたました!"
"This distinguished guest, I was rude before!"
Shi Wende took a deep breath, bowed and returned the greeting with skillful and cold words. Then, he looked around and saw that there were only two men wearing monk's robes, which seemed to be the nobles of the Heguo in the mission. After he thought for a while,
Looking at the Sakaigang businessman Koshitaro who was holding on to her, she whispered.
"Teacher of Buddha! Sorry, I, the Shi family of Chongming, have turned back to justice, taken the right path of scientific research, and no longer do business at sea... Our family has handed over these businesses to others and cannot trade with you as before.
It's…”
"This distinguished guest from Sakai Port... To be honest, the Ningbo businessman who negotiated with you just now is actually very famous behind it, and they are the four major ones in Ningbo... Well, 'The old Guan Ling'. The silk price they set was very good for other merchants.
It's hard to disobey, and no one dares to lower the price or sell it privately..."
"From the fate before, if you really want to negotiate this business, try to save some silver... Then there is only one possible way in Ningbo Port... Go to Lin Huai, the chief supervisor of the Maritime Bureau!
In the hands of Lin Dajian, there will be a batch of silk that is missing from the official warehouse, which will be sold cheaper than Ningbo merchants, but not many... If Lin Dajian is willing to speak for you, Yang will definitely sell his face after considering it.
At least a 10% price drop…”
"That's all! This distinguished guest...when we meet again next time, it will be our first meeting! And I have never said this conversation today!..."
After saying this sincere words, Shi Wende gave another tribute, turned around and rolled up his sleeves, and walked quickly as if he was flying. Only the stunned Sakaigang businessman Konishitaro was left, and there were still people watching.
Yaofu Shouhuang and Morino Kiyoshi flashed their eyes, pondered for a moment, apologized to Yaofu Shouhuang, and walked forward with a smile.
"Xiao Xijun, you met this tall Mingren before? I remember that he seemed to be a master of Mingren's translation?"
"Ah! Senjun... I do know him, well, and also know his father, the leader of the Shi Navy... Strange! His family should be powerful pirates from the Ming Dynasty, with at least ten large sea boats under his command, hundreds of them
The Ming people's navy who can fight and kill... But this time, he was like a different person, saying "turning back to justice" and not doing "sea business"?..."
Xiao Sitaro was puzzled and felt a sad thick barrier that separated the old friends. He was obviously a truly brave martial artist, so why did he wear such a scribbler robe? But soon, his attention,
Let’s move to the feasible suggestions that Schwender left last.
"Borrowing the 'Lin Dajian' can not only buy a batch of good goods from the official warehouse, but also reduce the price by 10%? No, I have to discuss with others and go to see the nobles of Ming Dynasty once!"
Konishitaro's eyes were shining, and he rushed to the hall, as if he was rushing out. Outside the east gate, there were only the uninterested Yaofu Shouhuang and the very interested Kiyoshi Morino.
Under the inscription "The Light of Viewing the Country", Kiyoshi Morino looked at the direction of Shi Wende's departure. He repeatedly chewed on the other party's complicated identity and gradually raised the corner of his mouth.
"The sea master of Ming Kingdom... turns evil and returns to justice... Translation and knowledge... Shi's Wende?..."
"See the light of the country and use the guest to the king..."
"Blessed by the Buddha! This is really the 'light of observing the country', an interesting custom of the Ming people, and a 'guest' promised by the Buddha!..."
