Yoshigan explained to Yamanaka Yukimori for a long time. Yamanaka Yukimori touched his head and said doubtfully.
"I remember that the Wu Family Principle Promotion Association is in charge of the Dazang Changan of the execution office. Their execution office is in charge of Naojiangjin, so they are afraid of lack of money?
With such a good deal that guarantees a steady profit without losing any money, the warehouses on the market should be rushing to invest money in them, right?
How could the monastic institution allow outsiders like Kamakura Gozan to get involved so easily? There are no requirements for joining. This is unreasonable."
Yiyin sighed and smiled bitterly.
"Because, the Wu family in the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River are a bit poor, but they pride themselves on their noble birth and look down on merchants.
There are many Tokura in Naoetsu who are willing to participate in the loan, but the village servants are taboo about borrowing money from merchants. They will be laughed at by other samurai families. They want money, food and face.
Dazang Changan could only contact the monastic forces in Guanbazhou and bring in the Kamakura Five Mountains.
With the temple Gao Ni taking the lead, the local servants felt that they could save their face. As for how much money the merchants and the temple had to borrow, they didn't care, as long as they could borrow the money."
Yamanaka Yukimori was stunned when he heard this, and felt that the arrogant Ji warriors of Guan Bazhou could really do such a thing.
Kanbazhou is the place where the samurai family arose, and Kamakura is the pride of the samurai warriors.
Although with the development of the samurai society, Kansai has long left Kanto far behind in terms of economic development through maritime trade.
But in the hearts of the Kanto warriors, my ancestors were richer than me. You Kansai people were all the scum conquered by my ancestors back then. This kind of pride and reserve is engraved in the bones of the Kanto people.
The middle and lower class Kanto warriors are extremely conservative. They even look down on the Kansai warriors, so how can they look down on lower-class people like merchants?
Yiyin sighed.
"In some villages, the local servants have been unable to open the pot for a long time, and their sons secretly go to the men's branch in the surrounding towns to show off in order to exchange for some food and ensure that no one in the family starves to death.
But these Ji warriors are living like mud, and they still insist on some stubborn hierarchical concepts. I really don’t know whether it’s good or bad.”
Yoshigan Shiba was born in the Kawachi Genji family. He had a relationship with Ashikaga Yoshiteru and was granted the title of direct descendant of the Kawachi Genji family. His family status was extremely noble.
Although he has now become a monk and returned his status to the Ashikaga Shogun family, he still claims to be the elder of the Genji family, and he still has the support of Hachiman Taimu's Gohakuban.
These conservative and stubborn local servants in Kanto respect him as a heavenly being, which can be regarded as an advantage for him as an extreme conservative. However, it is still difficult for Yoshigan to understand this kind of slanderous behavior.
After all, this little trouble in terms of face is not a big deal, and it can be said to be an unexpected blessing to be able to bring Kamakura Gozan over to establish a friendly and cooperative relationship.
Yamanaka Yukimori saw Yoshigage with a wry smile on his face and nodded.
"The Wu family in Guanbazhou is living in a difficult situation, and the Lord is trying every possible means to help them out. It's really not easy."
Yiyin sighed.
“It’s really not easy.
Although Tucang has money, they hope to make money and make progress without turning into bad debts. Therefore, they are unwilling to lend money to poor people who cannot afford to pay back the money, and they only dare to lend money to rich people.
But the question is, if rich people don’t lack money, why should they borrow the interest-bearing money from Tucang?
In the end, Tucang either couldn't lend it out, or the money was lent to people who didn't need it, which was of no use to economic development.
But those who most need money to repair water conservancy and increase the yield of their acres have difficulty in borrowing money. Or they have to borrow money at unaffordable high interest rates to maintain the status quo, losing the original intention of improving their lives.
I used my reputation as a guarantee so that Tucang dared to lend money to the poor village servants in the village, so that the village servants could use the money and food to build the village and try their best to get rid of poverty and become rich.
As long as their lives are better, they will support the Wu Family Ethics Promotion Association and agree with my Shiba New Thoughts.
Then I can win the hearts and minds of Guan Bazhou without any bloodshed, and then conquer this unruly and conservative land."
Yamanaka Yukimori was filled with admiration and couldn't help hugging his admiring master and said.
"The wisdom of benevolence and righteousness in your heart is the blessing of the Guanbazhou Wu family."
Yiyin pinched her little face affectionately and smiled.
"So, I must pay attention to the Taoist Gaoni behind these soil warehouses, come here to see them, and treat them with respect and courtesy.
Kamakura Gozan cherished his reputation and was unwilling to step forward to serve as the front man of United Tokura. On the contrary, those of the Shinji faction were not afraid of publicity and were willing to stand up and take charge of the overall situation.
I just decided on four candidates with them, namely Yu Xin of Miao'an Temple, Shanghui of Sanguang Temple, Zhehuang of Wuliang Temple, and Kaixin of Yanglin Temple. They are all abbots of major temples of the New Temple Sect.
Led by these Taoist monks, they organized various temples and tukura under the names of merchants to jointly lend money to more than 200 villages in the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River, completing the first transaction of the loan plan.
After that, the loan program will gradually expand its scope, hoping that more poor Guanbazhou villages will receive financial and food support to improve people's livelihood."
Yamanaka Yukimori nodded.
"Your Majesty has shown great righteousness to the Guanbazhou Wu family. They must be filled with gratitude and their hearts go out to Sibo.
But, are these nuns reliable?"
Yoshigan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Yamanaka Yukimori to ask such a question, he thought for a while and said.
"They are all well-known Taoist monks from Guandong temples, so there shouldn't be any problems.
What's more, there is also the Wu Family Giri Promotion Association who is keeping an eye on the loan plan, and Dazang Changan is a capable person and will not make any mistakes."
Yamanaka Yukimori nodded seriously and said.
"Then I can rest assured. If someone uses their brains to distort the king's good intentions of caring for the people, it would be a heinous crime."
Seeing her serious face, Yiyin couldn't help but laugh, patted her cheek and said dotingly.
"Nonsense, what are you worrying about? How can there be so many coincidences in the world?
Don’t worry, are you still afraid that these Taoist monks will abandon the monastery and abscond with their money?”
Yamanaka Yukimori smiled silly.
"That's what the Lord said."
Yoshigan touched her pretty little face and suddenly became more interested. He leaned back and pressed Yamanaka Yukimori's body against his six-pack abs.
Yamanaka Yukimori's face was so red that he wanted to bleed, but he was unwilling to let go. He hugged Yoshiyin tightly, lowered his head, and opened his mouth.
The sun is shining brightly outside, and the daylight inside the house is clear. It is the spring sleep without realizing the dawn, and the spring dream has no trace, making others envious.

The great names of the Wu family always praise the righteousness of the Wu family and emphasize etiquette and respect, but they themselves often choose to bow to reality and compromise.
In their view, it is incomprehensible stupidity for Shiba Yiyin to provide annuity benefits to grassroots warriors and guarantee loans for grassroots villages.
The grassroots Wu family should be like a sponge, absorbing all the hard work and injustice, and shouldering all the hardships for the prosperity of the Wu family's family business.
Righteousness is on the lips, and interests are in the heart. The martial arts system that promotes the slogan of justice is originally a shackle prepared for the middle and lower classes. How can high-level martial arts believe it and tie their own hands and feet?
To put it bluntly, the five-hundred-year-old blessing of Genji in Kawachi is nothing more than a table that is convenient for everyone to eat. If you can make do with it, don't replace it.
If Oda Nobunaga's method of tearing down the old table and then setting up a new table really happened, many people would feel guilty that they were not qualified to serve on the table again, and would become the grassroots samurai ants they said they should know how to be grateful for.
Shiba Yiyinzhen takes justice seriously and unites the entire samurai group to benefit the grassroots warriors. Although it seems pedantic and ridiculous, it is within the range that high-level samurai can tolerate.
The troubled times of the Wu family were the worst of times, but also the best of times. Countless people implemented their beliefs in this era, and countless people worked hard to change their destiny in this era.
The so-called fate is up to me, but it is just a glimmer of opportunity for the ants to complete a class jump in the turmoil of troubled times.
When all order is restored and classes are solidified again, it will be a paradise for a new group of warrior nobles. History is always in a cycle, and there is always a lack of new ideas.
How Sibo Yiyin's behavior will be judged by future generations can only depend on which side of the winner's p-shares he sits on, and whether he is willing to beautify or vilify his history.
No matter what, he is destined to never get rid of his reputation as a slut.
———
Don't talk about the future, just look at the present. Yoshiyin and Yamazaka Yukimori once again traveled to Wushan, immersed in tenderness for a while, forgetting the troubles outside.
Unfortunately, the happy time was short-lived. After exhaustion, the two returned to this troublesome world again and continued talking about business.
Yiyin asked while adjusting his clothes.
"You said Date Masamune has compromised? How come it so quickly?"
Yamanaka Yukimori nodded.
"After the spring plowing, Oyu had another dispute.
Date Masamune used the Osaki family's disobedience as an excuse to send troops to conquer the Minami Sendai Plain.
The Osaki family accused Date Masamune of violating the Imperial Order of Peace in Kanto and asked for help from all sides. The Mogami family was the first to respond and raised volunteers to support the Osaki family in their fight against the Date family.
The remnants of Ashina, who had been crushed to death by Date Masamune in the four Aizu counties, also joined forces with the Satake family to respond to the cause of peace in Kanto and raised troops to harass the Date family's rear."
Yoshihiro shook his head. The Kanto Quiet War he advocated was now just a frame. As long as it was beneficial to him, the Kanto Samurai family would put all the dirty things in it.
In the narrow sense, Kanto should be the ten countries of Kanto under the jurisdiction of the Kanto shogun. The Imperial Order of Peace in Kanto was issued in the name of the Kanto shogun Ashikaga Yoshiji. What happened in the Kanou area?
But Daimyo Ou just took advantage of Yoshiyin's tiger skin and used this level of righteousness and blood relationship to full effect.
The Date family is the Ou Daimyo whom the Ashikaga Shogun family relies heavily on, and in fact already has the authority to manage the Ou area.
The Osaki family is just a passing Internet celebrity. The old Ou Ushu Tentai had already given the Ushu Tentai to the Mogami family of the branch family, and he was just the Ou Shu Tentai.
But even with this level of status, it is already a thing of the past. The Ashikaga Shogun bestowed the status on the Date family. As early as three generations ago, the Osaki family knelt down to the Date family and became a subordinate tribe.
The Mogami family is also an in-law of the Date family, and the younger brother of the current head of the family is the father of Date Masamune. Regardless of the family status, the blood relationship between the two parties is actually closer than that of the Osaki family.
But when there is a conflict of interest, it only takes a moment for blood relatives to fall out.
The Mogami and Satake families stood up almost at the same time and immediately helped the Osaki family. This was not for the sake of righteousness, but to suppress Date Masamune, an ambitious one-eyed woman.
And they had bowed their knees and begged Yiyin in advance, and they were already ready to borrow the tiger skin of the Kanto Peace Order.
Yiyin shook his head and asked directly.
"So what's the result?"
Yamanaka Yukimori smiled bitterly.
"The Battle of Osaki was very hard fought, and the two Mogami families in Osaki could barely support themselves.
In fact, the Date family already occupied the four counties of Aizu. Even if the Satake family united with the remnants of the Ashina family, they could only harass Date Masamune's rear and could not truly threaten the foundation of the Date family.
You once gave the instructions to the Kanto Shisho not to allow Date Masamune to act recklessly, so I tacitly allowed Honjo Shigenaga and Kachi Kagetsuna to intervene.
Honjo Nobunaga led his seikiki to the Shonai area and crossed the territory of the Mogami family to join the battle. Seeing the Shimogoshi people joining the enemy, Date Masamune was shocked, and it also boosted the morale of the Osaki Mogami family.
Kaji Kagetsuna led his troops via the Agano River water transport and marched directly into the four prefectures of Aizu. The four prefectures were shaken, and the Date family defenders could only ask for help from Date Masamune on the front line.
In the end, Date Masamune's father, who was from the Mogami family, intervened, and the Date family and Mogami family reached an agreement, and both parties retreated.
The Satake family is also retreating to the south, wary of possible revenge from the Date family. And the Ashina family has lost its legitimate heir, and the four counties of Aizu will be a big trouble that cannot be sorted out in the future."
Yiyin shook his head and said.
"Aoyu and other famous names are all using my name to play their own tricks.
To help them suppress Date Masamune, on the one hand, this one-eyed girl is too arrogant and cannot be allowed to unify Ou. On the other hand, it is also because of the unity of the Shiba family."
What Yiyin said is actually related to the tradition of the Wu family.
Although the Wu family, which shares the same bloodline, has moved to open up new territories and spread its branches, the authority of a general family is still very influential in each branch family.
When the Ashikaga family rose, it was in the name of a general family that they called on Kira, Hosokawa and other powerful people to separate the family, as well as powerful relatives like Uesugi to support them, so that they had the confidence to compete for the world.
Sanada Nobushige's rapid rise was actually based on his status as a descendant of a branch of the Umino family, which allowed him to win over his fellow clan members.
The Umino family is the chief family of the Shino clan and has a great influence among the mountain people. Therefore, even if the Umino family is reduced to nothing, the name of the family will still be coveted.
However, after the establishment of the Ashikaga Shogunate, the traditional one-line general family began to disintegrate, and its appeal was far less than before.
Because General Ashikaga discovered that his family, the general leader, was gradually being sidelined by his relatives. As soon as Hosokawa, Hatakeyama and other branch families gained strength, they began to use their crooked ideas to sideline the general.
Most of the history of the Ashikaga Shogunate was a battle of wits and courage between the Ashikaga clan, the chief family, and the branch clans of the Ashikaga clan, the Oyakata clan.
A general family is not hereditary and remains unchanged. Take the four Aizu prefectures that are now in chaos as an example.
The Aizu clan was an important imperial family member of the Kamakura shogunate, and the Miura clan of Sagami province was the clan that opened up new territory to Ou. Originally, the general leader of this clan was the Inadai clan.
However, the Ashina family came from behind and everyone was a descendant of Miura, so they did not fight to the death. The Inanadai family abdicated in favor of others and became important ministers of the Ashina family.
