Chapter 720 The New Situation of Sakai Port

 Miyoshi Masayasu glared at Tsuda Muneki fiercely.

It seems that this girl hates Takada Haruno and Imai Munehisa so much that she even dares to talk about religious disputes. She is really desperate for her life.

For the sake of her many years of worship, Miyoshi Masayasu reluctantly suppressed his anger and gave her a few words, which was worthy of her money and food.

"Did you know that Imai Munehisa obtained the Yodogawa concession right of passage?"

Tsuda Soji was stunned, gritted his teeth and nodded.

"Hey, I already know about this."

The Yodogawa is a river that crosses the entire Settsu Province and directly connects the southern suburbs of Kyoto, a mountainous country. It is the lifeline of Sakai Port and Kyoto, the two major commercial centers in Japan.

The cost of water transportation is much lower than that of land transportation. Since ancient times, merchants have relied on coastline and river transportation to reduce costs and expand trade scope.

For Imai Munehisa to be able to obtain the concession right to the Yodogawa River, he must at least impress Sakai Minato Masayasu Miyoshi, Yodojo Matsuhisa Hide, and Kyoto Ashikaga Yoshiteru. Their abilities are as great as the heavens.

With this right of way, Imai Munehisa has been in an invincible position in recent transportation.

The three members of Miyoshi, Miyoshi Yoshitsugu, and the shogun all nodded. The logistics under Imai Munehisa's name has become the safest logistics option for caravans in recent times.

The internal fighting between the Miyoshi family and the conflict between the Miyoshi family and the shogunate, excluding these political risks, is the greatest competitiveness in business.

Although Tsuda Muneki did not dare to go against Takada Harano, the arrogant Shiba merchant, she had been hiding behind the Tokaido merchants and invested a lot of money to provide eye drops for the Hokurikudo trade route.

Not to mention the dispute between Hokuriku Expressway and Tokaido Expressway, Imai Munehisa's side has already gained the upper hand in terms of logistics security in recent sections.

In recent years, there have been wars every year, and whether logistics can be guaranteed is what merchants are most concerned about.

Tsuda Muneki was salivating and jealous of Imai Munehisa's concession pass.

Miyoshi Masayasu looked at her unnatural expression and said coldly.

"Do you know why I gave her permission? Because Matsunagahide-sama of Yodo City said hello to Miyoshi Choitsu-sama.

It is said that Kyoto Akechi Mitsuhide and Takada Haruno are not on good terms, but the Hokurikudo trade route is connected to Kanto's Kenshin Gong Shiba, so they can still work together to plan for the master."

When Miyoshi Masayasu said this, she paused. The civil strife in Miyoshi was caused by the greed of the three Miyoshi people. To be honest, she already regretted it.

But when she got to this point, she had no way to escape, so she had no choice but to go on. Seeing that the Sibo family was not at odds with each other, but they were able to share public and private matters, she felt a little sad.

Tsuda Muneki didn't dare to speak, he lowered his head and listened to Miyoshi Masayasu's instructions.

"Matsuhisa Nagahide speaks for the Shiba family and hopes that I will not embarrass the Hokurikudo Logistics of the Shiba Shinsengumi.

Imai Munehisa donated a large amount of property to support Miyoshi Nagaitoshi in his work.

Tell me, can I touch her?"

Miyoshi Masayasu looked at Tsuda Muneki, this businessman did not know good from evil. She thought that by giving Miyoshi Masayasu some money, she could do whatever she wanted in Sakai Port without even looking at who the other party was.

The Miyoshi family, headed by Miyoshi Nagaitsu, occupied the two countries of Settsu and Tamba, which was the subsequent mess after the Miyoshi family failed to conquer the shogunate.

If Miyoshi succeeds in going to Luo for the Changqing Festival, he will probably reorganize his family business. He will sit in the Settsu Kingdom and supervise Kyoto, directly under the jurisdiction of Miyoshi and the other three people.

Miyoshi Yoshihide was then transferred back to look after his hometown in Shikoku and to make peace with the Hime Warriors of the Miyoshi family.

In this way, there will be no dispute between the Konja faction and the Shikoku faction. Miyoshi Yoshihide will not even be the boss of the Miyoshi trio, but will become the leader of the Shikoku clan.

However, the recent battles failed, Miyoshi Yixian died again, and the Miyoshi trio became a problem left over from history.

Their strength is not enough to suppress these two neighboring countries, and their relations with the four countries are not good either.

To put it simply, we are very short of money.

And Takada Haruno drained the Tukura deposits in Sakai Port and Kyoto, and there was a lot of money.

Both parties have Mitsuhide Akechi and Nagahide Matsushita as the mediators, and they are mutually beneficial. Everything can be discussed and discussed.

Relying on Miyoshi Masayasu's connections, Tsuda Muneki wanted to backstab Imai Munehisa and deal with Takada Yono. He took advantage of Ichigo Mune's cleaning up of the Tokukura steward to do something behind his back.

Maybe she understood the business routine between Imai Munehisa and Tsuchikura Manager, but she didn't understand the political logic behind it.

Miyoshi Masayasu patiently told her these things, which was the utmost kindness and justice.

she finally said.

"Do you know how much money Takada Haruno borrowed from Tukura in total?"

Tsuda Soji thought for a while and said.

"It is said that there are as many as 150,000..."

Miyoshi Masayasu interrupted.

"One hundred and thirty thousand guan, and there will be loans shipped from Kyoto in the future, totaling no less than 150,000 guan.

Among them, 70,000 kuen came from the steward of the Tokura under the Ichigo clan. This is the reason why Honganji Xianru sent someone to inform me that the soldiers of the Ichijo clan took advantage of the road to enter Hong Kong and killed all the stewards of her family.

Her housekeeper took away 70000 guan and put it into his own pocket.

To show his sincerity, Takada Yono took the initiative to give the accounts to Matsunaga Hide-sama. Matsunaga's retainer Honda Masanobu went to Ishiyama Honganji Temple to meet with the Master. You know what happened after that.

By the way, Imai Munehisa has already joined the Ichijo sect and is now a believer in Honganji Temple."

Tsuda Souji's head was covered with cold sweat. She was extremely afraid of the dark hearts of these Wu family members.

Takada Harano didn't leave any room for her to use the topic and tidied it up by herself.

Ishiyama Honganji Temple has great power and is a major source of funds for Sakai Port Tukura.

Takada Yono first borrowed money from the steward of Tokura, then gave the accounts to Ishiyama Honganji, and finally allowed Imai Munehisa to join the religion.

Now that the money has been spent, what can Honganji Hiro do? That’s a total of 70,000 kusen!

Takada Haruno acted according to business rules. It was Manager Tokura who made the mistake due to his own greed. There was no reason for Ichigo to fall out with the Shiba family.

She also did not forget to help Honganji Xianru clean up the house and give full respect to the Ichikio sect. Later, Imai Munehisa became a follower of the Ichikio sect and would earn back the money for the Ichikio sect, or even more.

With this combination of punches, Ishiyama Honganji Temple became the protector of the Hokuriku Road trade route. At least in the Settsu area, no one dared to embarrass Takada Yono.

The Ishiyama Honganji Temple is a giant. Why would Miyoshi Masayasu attack Takada Harano and provoke these troublesome nuns for a trivial matter of honor?

Takada Yono also donated money to Miyoshi Choitsu through Akechi Mitsuhide and Matsunagahide. Miyoshi Choitsu came forward to make peace. Is it okay if Miyoshi Masayasu doesn't give her face?

Miyoshi Masayasu sighed and said.

"The Miyoshi family's customs office collects about 20,000 gu in taxes a year at Sakai Port.

The amount of money Takada Yono borrowed from Tokura this time was as high as 150,000 guan. It is said that Tokura is also involved, and the final amount may be as high as 200,000 guan or more.

She has become powerful, and there is nothing I can do against her. If you want to seek death, don't drag me into the water, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless.

By the way, Miyoshi Yasunaga will come to Sakai Port soon to assist me in handling affairs. Remember to prepare a grand tea party to welcome her arrival."

"Hi, please don't worry, sir."

Miyoshi Masayasu has told so many inside stories, so of course he should ask for a speaking fee from Tsuda Muneji.

Although Arimatsu Nagahide intervened, her status as a Sakai Port was not lost. However, Miyoshi Yasunaga's benefits must also be given to both parties to get along easily.

Tsuda Muneji's heart was bleeding, Miyoshi Masayasu said it was a tea party, but the donated property must be valuable. Otherwise, Miyoshi Masayasu, who felt offended, would definitely fall out.

How much money did Tsuda Muneki, the two big bosses of the Miyoshi family, have to spend on their affairs?

She stole as much rice as possible. This time, Imai Munehisa was not harmed, but she lost another large amount of money.

Tsuda Muneji's heart became more and more eager to learn from Imai Munehisa's method and find a powerful samurai daimyo to rely on, so that he would not be bullied everywhere.
