Drive the RV back to Datang

Chapter 422 Chapter 433: Come back with a rewarding experience

Fortunately, Lu Yun is still very kind, he smiled all over his face and said: "Although this Taidao is good, it is still some distance away from the treasured sword, so I offer 50 taels for a Taidao, what do you think?"

When they heard that the price was only 50 taels, the two quickly nodded and agreed. 50 taels of silver would buy a knife. If it was in Datang, it would be a sky-high price. , the country presents a situation of more silver and less materials, so natural inflation and false inflation of prices have been showing an upward trend.

As for the Taidao, in the eyes of Miyamoto and Hattori, it is simply the best of the swords. The forging process must be extremely complicated. They think it is not expensive to sell 50 taels. They even think that among all Lu Yun's things, the price of Taidao is the cheapest justice.

The prices of all the items were negotiated, and after calculating the total price, it was 72 taels of silver in total. In order to show that he was kind, Lu Yun waived a fraction of 400 taels, and the porcelain was regarded as a gift for them. , In fact, porcelain is quite profitable, but the porcelain he brought this time is really too little.

It’s not like I don’t know, but I’m surprised that the total price of these items has reached 72 taels of silver. Even if Miyamoto and Hattori split it equally, each of them would have to pay 36 taels.

Fortunately, Miyamoto and Hattori are rich and powerful, and they feel that they will definitely make a profit this time. The [-] shi of grain is obviously inexhaustible, so they can be sold if they can’t finish it. If the rice of Datang is retailed in Japan, the price will definitely be higher. High, you can return some money.

Lu Yun discussed with them for a while, and decided to start the transaction tomorrow. Since there are too many things, it is estimated that the transaction time will be a bit long, and it may not be completed in a day or two.

Tonight, Li Hao and the others lived in the inn again, Li Hao and Lu Yun shared a room, Li Hao was very satisfied with today's harvest, sat at the table and said: "Lu Yun, next time I come to Japan, I won't come with you , you must also train a person in charge, after all, Liuqiu needs you to sit in charge."

Sitting opposite him, Lu Yun nodded and said, "You're right, I thought so too. I think Shanmao is a good boy, very smart. I'll take him for a walk next time, and let him come to Japan alone."

"I think it will work." Li Hao agreed, and then said, "Next time you come to Japan, prepare two thousand swords and six thousand big swords."

"Odachi?" Lu Yun asked puzzledly, "What is Odachi?"

"It's a Taidao that is one size bigger than the Taidao. It is about five feet long. This kind of Taidao is more suitable for fighting." Li Hao said with a smile, "Of course, the price should be set higher, 70 taels."

Lu Yun asked with a smirk, "I'm afraid you have no good intentions in selling so many knives to the Japanese country."

"How can you be kind to them?" Li Hao raised his eyebrows and said indifferently, "I just want to make them civil strife. People have desires, and Japanese people are even white-eyed wolves. Don't look at Miyamoto Kojiro and Hattori Hirakawa who seem to be loyal to the emperor." Emperor Ji, if they are really loyal, why did Emperor Huangji use divisive tactics against them? After they bought food and weapons from us, their ambitions naturally swelled, and it would be a matter of time before they rebelled."

Lu Yun asked curiously: "Actually, I have always wondered why you hate Japanese people so much?"

Hearing this, Li Hao suddenly frowned, and his face became very dark. It was the first time that Lu Yun saw Li Hao showing such an expression, and he was a little surprised for a while.

Li Hao was silent for a moment, and suddenly said with sadness: "That is the hatred of the nation that penetrates the bone marrow. As a son and daughter of the Chinese, even if you are smashed to pieces, you will never forget it."

He thought of the bitter history recorded in the history books when he was in school. He didn't know what it was like when 30 people were massacred, but he had been to the memorial hall in Nanjing, visited the mass graves, and the history books Illustrations of black and white photos, as well as the killing competition that took place on the streets of Nanjing, the sons and daughters of the Chinese people were slaughtered like pigs and dogs under the knife of this despicable nation... Thinking of this, Li Hao's eye circles began to turn red, and tears glistened in his eyes.

Lu Yun was stunned, he didn't understand what Li Hao was talking about, where did the ethnic hatred come from, why did he hate the Japanese country, but seeing Li Hao's appearance, he was definitely not pretending.

Just as Lu Yun was about to speak, he suddenly felt a strange noise on the roof. Li Hao seemed to have noticed it before him, and he put away his grief and gave him a look.

Although everyone has cooperated for many years, Lu Yun really didn't understand the meaning of Li Hao's eyes. Then, he only heard Li Hao say loudly: "Mr. Lu, you just said that Emperor Huangji deliberately separated the two families of Miyamoto and Hattori?"

Now Lu Yun understood, and quickly cooperated: "Well, that's right, this is Emperor Huangji's scheme."

Li Hao asked: "Why is this?" He kept looking at the roof when he spoke.

Lu Yundao: "In order to consolidate her regime, after all, the power of the Miyamoto and Hattori families should not be underestimated. Once they are united, their power will be even greater, and they will pose a considerable threat to Emperor Kogoku's regime. Therefore, Emperor Kogoku To act first is to give a silver mine to the two families. The silver mine is a good thing. If the two families have conflicts of interest, there will inevitably be disagreements over the distribution of the silver mine. In this way, the two families will have a rift. , if the conflict intensifies, the two families may still fight, and when the Emperor Huangji sits on the mountain and watches the tigers fight, he can completely reap the benefits of the fisherman."

"Oh—so that's the case!" Li Hao pretended to be stunned, and said loudly, "I didn't expect that Emperor Huangji had such vicious thoughts. I see that the heads of the two families, Miyamoto and Hattori, are very good."

"Who says it's not?" Lu Yundao, "These two are outstanding people in the world. If they unite and add the materials we sell to them in the future, it is no problem to overthrow Emperor Huangji. It's a pity... Sigh... for a mere silver mine, two families who had a good relationship with each other have come to blows like this."

There was another slight abnormal sound on the roof, Li Hao suddenly smiled triumphantly, and said, "Okay, I'm leaving."

Lu Yun raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "How was my performance just now?"

Li Hao gave a thumbs up: "Very good, you will be the next actor."

Lu Yun laughed and said, "I'm really looking forward to what kind of reaction Miyamoto and Hattori will have after hearing our words?"

"What else can I do?" Li Hao poured a cup of tea and said with a smile, "It must be a joint rebellion. I guess they will talk to you tomorrow and ask you to send more war supplies in the future, because they are urgent Want to rebel."

Lu Yun took a sip from his teacup, smacked his lips and said, "Hearing what you said, I'm really looking forward to them coming to me tomorrow."

Sure enough, as Li Hao expected, the next morning, Miyamoto Kojiro and Hattori Hirakawa came to visit Lu Yun. After sitting down in the room, Miyamoto Kojiro didn't even bother to drink tea, so he went straight to the point and said: " Lu Sang, how often will you come to our place in the future?"

Lu Yun pretended to be very casual and replied: "Probably once or twice a year."

"Okay." Miyamoto Kojiro said, "Lusan, next time you come over, bring one hundred thousand shi of grain and thirty thousand daggers."

Lu Yun pretended to be surprised when he heard the words: "Thirty thousand swords! That's 150 million taels of silver!"

"Silver! It's not a problem!" Hattori Hirakawa waved his hand, "We need a lot of katanas. By the way, we would like to ask, can your katanas be made bigger?"

When Lu Yun heard this, he was immediately happy. Li Hao just asked him to prepare a big sword last night, so he hurriedly said: "Yes, we can make a five-foot long big sword, but... the price is more expensive. 70 taels."

Hattori Hirakawa said happily after hearing the words: "Then next time you will bring [-] large swords."

Lu Yundao: "Okay, but only 210 datai swords, that's [-] million taels of silver."

"Money! It's not a problem!" Miyamoto Kojiro repeated what Hattori Hirakawa said just now. It seems that they are determined to rebel this time, and they seem to be very urgent, exactly as Li Hao expected. It can be seen that they yesterday The cross talk at night was pretty good.

Lu Yundao: "Okay, since you have money, I have to make money. I will meet all your requirements. Do you have any other requirements?"

"Yes!" Hattori Hirakawa said, "Please don't trade with Fuso's government or the emperor's people. Even if you trade, please don't sell the sword to them."

Lu Yun laughed when he heard this, and said: "Don't worry, smuggling weapons is against the law. If our government in Tang Dynasty finds out, I will die. How dare you sell weapons to your government in Fusang? Am I crazy?"

"Yoxi!" Hattori Hirakawa smiled and said, "Lu Sang, you! You are a good person!"

"Thank you, thank you." Lu Yun hurriedly smiled and clasped his fists, "Okay, it's getting late, let's go to the pier to trade. There is so much food, I'm afraid we won't be able to trade it all in a day or two."

"Okay!" Miyamoto and Hattori stood up at the same time, Miyamoto said, "Lu Sang, you go back to the pier first, we will be there soon."

Lu Yun and the others hurried back to the pier, and then began to move grain and knives to the shore, especially grain. It is not so easy to move [-] shi of grain, and the pier is too small, so they can only be moved one by one. It really can't be unloaded in two or three days.

Soon, people from the Hattori family and the Miyamoto family came, bringing many donkey carts, and each donkey cart was filled with sacks, and it was obvious that they were filled with silver.

Then we started to trade, because there was too much food, we had to do random inspections, two out of ten, but Li Hao and the others had to check every bag of money, and poured out all of them for careful inspection. Li Hao didn't care about these Japanese people What a high level of trust.

Seeing that Lu Yun and the others checked so carefully, Hattori and Miyamoto hurriedly winked secretly, and secretly transported nearly ten carts of silver away, and then brought over another ten carts of silver. It seemed that the silver was manipulated. I didn't see it, so as not to damage the relationship, after all, there will be trade in the future.

The transaction lasted for three full days, and the money and goods were cleared. Li Hao's ship returned with more than 90 taels of silver on board. In a year or two, the country of Wa will be in chaos.
