Although Kanding is Inazuma's financial center, without the approval of General Raiden, even Hiiragi Shinsuke has no right to use the funds of the shogunate.
But since the promulgation of the Inazuma Seclusion Order, Hiiragi Shinsuke has earned a lot of Mora by relying on this decree.
On the one hand, they oppress the common people and foreign businessmen, and on the other hand, they deceive their superiors and subordinates, collecting money in the name of disaster relief, colluding with their staff to resell the relief supplies, making a lot of money, hum, as for the fools who are using them, Hiiragi Shinsuke and The nine filial piety is also well known, but in turn, they are not taking advantage of the fools?
General Lei Dian's [Wu Xiang's Sword] is unmatched by anyone. When it really comes time to have to turn against the fools, just ask the general to solve all the troubles.
After walking out of the shogunate, Hiiragi Shinsuke rubbed his red palms from the cold, his exhaled breath condensed into white mist in the air-conditioning, and then got on the carriage.
"Hiss, it's so cold...but I like this weather..."
"The master seems to be in a good mood today?" the coachman asked with a smile.
The driver of the Hiiragi family is the most trusted confidant of Hiiragi Shinsuke - the son of the steward, named Hiiragi Keita.She devoted herself to him on weekdays, and she was so loyal to him.
It's a pity that Hiiragi Keita has no culture, his hands and feet are not clean, and he especially likes to collect money.But those who are greedy are petty money, so Hiiragi Shinsuke just turned a blind eye.
Hiiragi Shinsuke said slowly: "Jingtai, the weather is suddenly cold, and there is not much charcoal in the house."
"Go back and get 100 million moras from your father. In the next two days, buy more charcoal and send it to the house. The remaining money will be used as a reward for you."
"Remember, you must have good appearance, I don't want bad ones."
Hiiragi Keita smiled and said: "Okay master, don't worry about my work, just leave it to me."
Hiiragi Shinsuke continued: "Also, tell your father to ask him to notify Dao's wife's shops and grain shops to increase the price of grain by another [-]%."
After all, Hiiragi Shinsuke kept his mouth shut, and sat in the carriage with his eyes closed.
About half an hour later, Hiiragi Shinsuke, who had returned to the house, came to the bedroom.
Outside the window was a vast expanse of white goose feather snow, but the fireplace inside the house lit up a warm flame early on, illuminating Hiiragi Shinsuke's old cheeks extremely red.
"I have devoted myself to the General. I have worked hard without credit, and I should get some money."
Hiiragi Shinsuke took a bite of the sweet peach that was as sweet as winter snow, as if comforting himself, lifted the quilt, got in early, and closed his eyes.
This weather is the most suitable for sleeping in bed, Hiiragi Shinsuke thought.
But it didn't take long before Hiiragi Shinsuke was awakened by the noisy voice in the mansion.
"Lord Kujosara, you can't do this. It is illegal to trespass into the Kanding Executive Mansion without permission."
"Lord Kujosara, if this happens again, we have the right to attack you."
Immediately afterwards, there was the clash of weapons, the sound of gold and iron colliding, the sound of warriors falling to the ground, and the exclamation of Qianli.
boom--
Kujo Sara kicked Hiiragi Shinsuke's bedroom door open.
"Are you going to rebel? Kujo Saura?" Hiiragi Shinsuke asked calmly.
Jiutiao Shaluo gritted his silver teeth, and asked angrily: "Why? Why do you have to raise the price of food in this weather?"
Hiiragi Shinsuke looked at Kujo Saro calmly: "What do you want to ask? Kujo Saura, as a general who follows the Heavenly Command, you shouldn't appear here."
"The rebel army has not been wiped out by the shogunate army so far. You are directly or indirectly responsible, General Kujo Sara."
With a bang, Jiutiao Shaluo smashed the dishes in the bedroom angrily: "I ask you why you want to increase the price of food?!"
"Do you know what kind of predicament the rice wife people are facing now? There was a sudden snowstorm, and the grain that the farmers had worked so hard to plant had no harvest."
"Obviously you should open warehouses to release grain and help the people, but why do you want to raise the price of grain?"
Hiiragi Shinsuke stroked his beard: "The increase in food prices is a voluntary act of the merchants, and has nothing to do with the implementation of the appointment, and I don't know about it."
"As for the matter of opening the granary and releasing the grain, the old man has arranged for the steward to do it. This matter has nothing to do with you, it is not within your scope of authority, and you don't need to worry about it."
Kujo Saro slowly drew out his bow and arrow, aimed at Shinsuke Hiiragi: "You are the one who has been assigned to carry out the task, and you have the right to lower the price of food. Let the price of food be lowered now."
Hiiragi Shinsuke calmly explained: "Master Kujo Saura, please don't worry, let the old man explain to you."
"The more the famine is, the less able it is to lower the price of grain. This will make grain merchants think that there is no profit to be made from their grain, and they would rather keep it in their hands than sell it."
"Increasing the price of grain will make the grain merchants think it is profitable, relieve the pressure of the rice wife's famine, and let the people have food to eat. This is the real consideration for the people."
Jiutiao Shaluo sneered and said: "Sophistry, because of the lock-up order, the common people don't have much money in their hands."
"You have raised the price of food now, and you are undoubtedly killing them!"
Hiiragi Shinsuke continued to explain: "Don't worry, Lord Kutiaosara, let the old man tell you slowly."
"The grain stockpiled by the granary of the shogunate and the stockpiles of the grain merchants are simply not enough to keep the rice wife and the people through the famine."
"There is only one way to solve it, and that is to attract businessmen from other countries to come to Daoqiu to sell food, such as Mond, Liyue, Fontaine..."
"However, the [Lockdown Order] will undoubtedly increase transportation costs significantly, so cheap grain is not enough to attract these grain merchants."
"Only by raising the price of grain and spreading the news, will these grain merchants not be far away...smuggling to Daoqiu to sell grain."
"No one cares about the sky-high price of grain. When the grain increases and the demand is saturated, the grain will be unsalable. There is no need for the old man to order. In order to recover the loss, the grain merchants will lower the grain price and sell the grain."
"This is an old plan to save the country. Although it damages the reputation of Kanding, it is also for the sake of Dao's wife, the people of Li, so I made this bad plan."
"Master Sara must not leak the news, please forgive me for not informing Lord Sara."
Kujo Sara's face turned pale, as if he was moved by Hiiragi Shinsuke's long speech: "You really think so?"
Hiiragi Shinsuke laughed and said: "What the old man said is not half false. The Hiiragi family has been loyal to the General from the beginning to the end, serving the General, and dare not complain."
"If Master Shaluo really thinks that the old man is lying, then the old man will voluntarily be killed."
Saying that, Hiiragi Shinsuke closed his eyes and raised his neck, as if he was not worried that Kujo Saura would attack him.
Jiutiao Shaluo let out a sigh of relief: "If you really dare to deceive me, even if you are punished by the general, I will swear to kill Qingjun."
After confirming that Kujo Sara had completely walked out of Kanding, Hiiragi Shinsuke let out a long breath, and his back was soaked in cold sweat unknowingly.
Those who can achieve the position of [Surveying and Pursuing] naturally have some real talents and practical learning.
The method that Hiiragi Shinsuke mentioned before is indeed feasible, and it is not difficult to implement. As long as the maritime control is relaxed a little bit and the taxes of foreign businessmen are reduced or exempted, Inazuma's disaster will naturally be alleviated.
But that was just a tactic to delay the attack, and Shinsuke Hiiragi didn't intend to do it.If so, how can he collect money?
Under Hiiragi Chisato's worried eyes, Hiiragi Shinsuke got up and walked to the study room, spreading out his pen, ink, paper and inkstone to write quickly.
Hiiragi Chisato couldn't help asking: "Father, who are you writing to?"
Hiiragi Shinsuke didn't shy away from her gaze, and said in a deep voice, "Kujo Sara is too presumptuous, I must let Kujo Takayuki discipline her well."
Looking at the content on the letter paper, Hiiragi Chisato was shocked.During the war, false information was a major crime of ransacking one's family and destroying one's mouth. How dare father do that?
After the letter was written, Hiiragi Shinsuke stamped the official seal, crumpled up the letter paper, stuffed it into the leggings of the carrier pigeon, and sent it to the sky to carry out the letter.
Hiiragi Shinsuke ordered: "Qianli, Inazuma may not be calm recently, so you stay in your own room and don't go out anywhere."
Hiiragi Chisato gave him a painful look, and said in a low voice, "Yes, Father."
Jiujo Shaluo must understand the truth of the matter, otherwise...
I'm sorry, my lord father...
Not long after, Tianling was enshrined in the mansion.
After seeing the urgent letter from Hiiragi Shinsuke, Kujo Takayuki slammed the table with a gloomy face.
Immediately afterwards, Kujo Xiaoxing sent an urgent letter to his eldest son Kujo Masahin who was leading the army at the front.
[The people in the rebel army are in turmoil, which is a good time to attack Ta Nasha. Quickly let go of your hands and feet and do your best to destroy the rebel army, and quickly attack Ta Nasha. 】
Sure enough, before dawn on the second day, news came from the front that the battle was tight.
The shogunate army led by Masahito Kujo accidentally fell into the treacherous tricks of Coral Palace Xinhai, and was ambushed by reinforcements who came from nowhere, and buried one-fifth of its troops.
Jiutiao Xiaoxing was overjoyed, and shouted anxiously: "Come on, find Jiutiao Shaluo quickly, and let her come to see me in the study."
After an unknown amount of time, Jiutiao Shaluo, who arrived late, pushed open the door of the study and said in a deep voice, "Patriarch, do you need me?"
With a gloomy face, Kujo Takayuki threw the letter in her face and scolded: "Sara, as the chief general of the army, how can you abandon your duties and disregard the lives of the soldiers?"
"Zhengren is not good at leading troops and is eager for success. When attacking Ta Nasha, he accidentally encountered an ambush from Xinhai of Coral Palace, and almost wiped out his entire army."
Looking at the contents of the letter, Jiujo Shaluo was ashamed, knelt on the ground and said: "I'm very sorry, Lord Patriarch, I didn't expect Coral Palace Xinhai to change his fighting style."
"It stands to reason that Coral Palace Xinhai's combat style in the past was to stay put and slowly wear down the strength and patience of the shogunate army. Even if the shogunate army encounters provocations, it will not do much..."
Kujo Takayuki sighed and said, "Go back quickly, don't let the rebel army occupy Tatarasha, or the shogunate army will lose all face."
Jiutiao Shaluo bit her lips and said in a low voice: "Yes..."
But just after Jiujo Shaluo walked out of the shogunate, not long after walking, she felt someone following her behind.
"Who?! Come out quickly, don't hide and hide, I have already found you."
Jiutiao Shaluo's eyes were slightly cold, and he drew his bow and set up an arrow, aiming at the bushes not far away.
In the bushes, a samurai said urgently: "Lord Kutiao Shaluo, you are my own, don't kill me."
Saying that, the samurai in purple walked up to Kujo Sharo, and introduced himself, "I am an ashigaru, Shinnojo, who is under the command of Mr. Kanding Mahogany."
"At the order of Ms. Hiiragi Chisato, Shinnojo specially sent you a private letter. It is imperative to follow you. I hope that Kujo Sara-sama will understand."
Kujo Sara took the letter suspiciously: "Hiragi Chisato? What did she send me the letter for?"
Shinnojo said anxiously: "I don't know, but the lady told me that the content of this letter is very important, please be mentally prepared."
"After you are mentally prepared, open it secretly in an empty place, and burn it after reading it. Don't let anyone find out."
Jiutiao Saluo asked in a deep voice: "Aren't you afraid that Shinsuke Hiiragi will blame you if you send a letter for your miss without telling your master?"
Xinzhicheng replied: "Xinzhicheng is willing to solve the problems for the young lady. Even if the owner finds out and blames him, Xinzhicheng will not regret it."
Soon after, Kujo Saro came to a place where no one was around, and secretly opened the letter.
But looking at the contents of the letter, Jiujo Shaluo's palms were trembling, and her delicate body was also trembling.
"Just because you want to send me away from Narugami Island and not interfere with your plans, do you want to kill one-fifth of the shogunate army?"
"So many human lives, are they worthless in your eyes?"
Click!
A lightning bolt as thick as a bucket split the thick tree, and it also split the ground into a deep hole, leaving only nine sarongs in it, suffering endlessly.
After calming down, Jiutiao Shaluo opened her red and swollen eyes, took out a knife, and cut off a strand of hair.
"Your Excellency, General, I, Jiujo Saluo, will sever the past kindness with Jiujo Xiaoxing from today. From then on, we will have nothing to do with each other."
