Lord Moyu was forced to open

"Patriarch! Patriarch!"

Wusu County, Jing family.

The housekeeper of the Jing family hurried to the room of the owner Masaki Jing.

Jing Zhengshu came out with a frown on his face, and said with displeasure, "What is it, you came to see me in the middle of the night?"

The housekeeper looked around cautiously, and then moved closer to Jing Zhengshu and whispered, "Patriarch, there is news from this island!"

As soon as he heard the news from Honjima, Jing Masaki's expression suddenly became serious, he raised his hand to stop the housekeeper, looked left and right, and then walked towards his study with the housekeeper.

The two walked all the way, and finally entered Jing Zhengshu's study. Jing Zhengshu turned a porcelain vase, and there was a creaking sound, and a tunnel appeared in front of the two of them.

Take it down to the tunnel, inside is a secret room, two futons are placed on a table, the master and servant sit down separately, kneeling on the futons, then Jing Masaki asked : "What news came from the island?"

The butler immediately replied: "Patriarch, there is news from the main island that the Oe daimyo of Kagoshima, Ueda daimyo, was kidnapped by a mysterious person who suddenly rushed to Kagoshima, and now the entire Kagoshima group has no leader.

Many families are preparing to go to Kagoshima to grab the territory at this time, and the family is also preparing to go this time.

So during this period of time, the family may not be able to help the Jing family too much, and even the war is about to start, the family wants the Jing family to bring some iron back to the family in China for the family to make weapons. "

"Is the family so short of iron?" Jing Masaki frowned and said, "The daimyos in Kagoshima have all been taken away, and it's just to attack Kagoshima. The iron used should not be much, and the Iron Family can't get it out. Yet?"

The steward sighed and explained: "In the first half of the year, Guan Bai issued a new decree that each daimyo land that produces iron should hand in 70.00% of its iron ore production every year.

If there are those who refuse to hand over, Guan Bai will personally lead an army to attack them.

Now that the family's iron has been handed in, the remaining iron is only enough to make some farm tools, and there is no surplus iron to make weapons at all. "

Jing Zhengshu was shocked when he heard the words: "Guan Bai actually ordered the whole country to hand over 70.00% of the iron ore production? Did no one object?"

The butler said with a helpless smile: "Of course there are. Hokkaido took the lead in objecting because it was far away from the capital. They thought that Guan Bai would not go on an expedition for that bit of iron ore.

But what they didn't expect was that Guan Bai actually sent [-] troops to Hokkaido, beat up those country folks there, and all of them obeyed.

Since then, no one has dared to violate Guan Bai's policy. "

Jing Zhengshu's eyes flickered when he heard the words, and he said, "Guan Bai is trying to make an example to others!"

"Who says it's not? But no one dares to bet that Guan Bai will fight without soldiers next time if he is himself.

Since everything is uncertain, there is no need for everyone to gamble this time. "

Jing Masaki nodded, this is the reason, and then said:

"Okay, you send a letter back to the family, just say that I know the matter, and Tie will send it back as soon as possible."

"Good homeowner!"

The butler nodded and was about to leave.

"and many more!"

Jing Masaki called out.

"Homeowner?"

The butler turned to look at him suspiciously.

Jing Zhengshu asked: "Have you found out the details of the new army that came to Wusu County?"

The butler shook his head when he heard the words and said, "I don't know why, but no one in the southeast knows their information, but according to the existing information, they look like an army of noble children sent by the Song Dynasty to be gilded.

They said they wanted to wipe out our Japanese country, but they haven't seen any movement since they came here these days, so it should be just talking. "

"Don't be careless. It seems that these troops are not the garrison troops we used to fight. Both weapons and people are much more than in previous years.

No matter what they want to do, now that the island is going to war.

Then we won't have foreign aid for a while, so please tell everyone in the family to be careful, don't expose your identity, and wait until this army is gone to be safe. "

"Good Patriarch, subordinates understand!"

The butler nodded repeatedly.

Only then was Jing Masaki satisfied, and waved his hand to make him retreat.

After the housekeeper left, Jing Zhengshu sat alone on the spot, and his thoughts could not help but return to four or five years ago.

"Masaki Mitsui, the glory of the family rests on you now, the island is not a livable place due to frequent earthquakes, the family must have a stable place, Da Song is an opportunity!
Taking advantage of those rogues attacking the coast of the Great Song Dynasty, we want you to go to the Great Song Dynasty with the glory of the family incognito, and the family will assist you. Once you have established a firm foothold there, the whole family will move to the Great Song Dynasty together.

You have to prepare the family for the frontier!
are you ready? "

"Hey! Masaki understands, please rest assured Oto-san! Masaki will definitely fulfill the mission of the family and let the Mitsui family reproduce in a place where there will be no more frequent earthquakes!"

"Hahaha, Masaki is a man now!"

……

His thoughts gradually retracted, Jing Masaki, oh no!
Mitsui Masaki murmured:
"Oh Tuosang, soon! Soon! In a year or two at most, I will be able to fully control all key positions in Wusu County.

At that time, the entire Mitsui family can come to live in Song Dynasty, please forgive the sinking island crisis that has been hanging over the Mitsui family for generations! "

……

"is it him?"

Outside the Jing's house, Li Dingguo was hiding aside with the child who gave him the key clue, secretly observing the people entering and leaving the Jing's house.

The child took a closer look, and suddenly pointed excitedly at the butler of the Jing family who was walking out and said excitedly: "He is! He is! He was the leader that night!"

The voice of the child is a bit loud!

All of a sudden, the well butler who was leaving quickly was startled.

The butler of the Jing family, who was leaving quickly, looked over subconsciously. Fortunately, everyone hid early and was not noticed by him.

Seeing him watching around vigilantly for a long time, he finally let go and continued to walk outside.

When Li Dingguo confirmed that the butler of the Jing family was the leader of Miemen Li Ergou's family, he immediately left with his people.

Now is not the time to scare the snakes, don't let the snakes run away.

But after they left, two people were left behind to follow the butler of the Jing family.

Back at his residence, Li Dingguo immediately summoned everyone and told them what happened just now.

Everyone was surprised, and then they were overjoyed. It was great that the target could be determined with the evidence.

At this moment, the people who were sent to follow the butler of the Jing family also returned, and they put a letter in it after the butler of the Jing family passed by a narrow alley.

After the butler of the Fengjing family left, they immediately took the letter back.

Everyone hurriedly opened the envelope to check. There were many words written in a mess, and they couldn't understand what was written.

Immediately, everyone concluded that these must be passwords, and only with the codebook over there could they understand what news was transmitted here.

Don’t do it if you don’t understand it, and it will be much easier to do after confirming the purpose.

Li Dingguo immediately ordered: "Immediately send a message to the other three places, asking if they have confirmed the Japanese pirates and colluders in their respective counties, and the news will be returned soon!"

"promise!"
