Butterfly [The Great Austrian Woman Version]

Ji Zong walked out of the room, along the corridor directly opposite, and out of the veranda.She sat barefoot on the railing of the veranda, looking at the square yard below, it is now a lively time, the people who serve the food are walking from the veranda, it is estimated that the guests are walking through the inner passage, so as to avoid collisions It also reduces troubles. This Takashimaya is very good at management.It's late at night, the red lights are hanging high, the fragrance of vegetables, wine and beauties are accompanied by the clanging string music and singing harmony, and the world is full of paper and gold.As soon as you enter this bustling place, if your concentration is a little weak, it is estimated that everyone will be drunk long ago.

"Ji Yidian!" Mitsui Hyun didn't know when he came to Ji Zong's side, Ji Zong turned his head, his eyes were clear, and he was still half drunk.

"Let's make a long story short." Ji Zong pointed in the direction of the room. Since Mitsui Hayao could understand her hint and followed her, he was not a dull person after all, nodded and said. "Ji Yidian, please enlighten me!"

"How do you plan?" Jizong wanted to know where the Mitsui family's bottom line was.

Mitsui Jun didn't expect Yoshimune to come up with this sentence. Before coming, the heads of the Yusan family have analyzed that Tokugawa Yoshitsu is the most likely to help them, and only the Owari family dared to compete with the general, so they approached Ji Tong.As for Tokugawa Yoshimune, firstly, there is too little useful information, and secondly, they are too young, so they really haven't considered it.However, the Mitsui family was at stake, and success or failure depended on one move, and she did not want to let go of even the slightest turning point.It's just that when businessmen negotiate, they are most taboo to show their hole cards, almost subconsciously, and she is somewhat resistant to this question.But after thinking about it, so what if I told Ji Zong, now I have no other cards to play.

"We discussed, either we can pay less, or we can withdraw from Edo and return to the base camp of Heianjing for development."

"Will the 'Queen's Gold' demanded by the general hurt your bones?"

Jun Mitsui thought for a while, then shook his head, "It's not about the amount of money, I can get it, I'm just afraid." Ji Zong nodded, understood, he was afraid that this was a bottomless pit, and if he took it out this time, he would still eat them next time.However, this Heian capital looks prosperous, so where is the market in Edo? Moreover, if they offend the general, will they be fine even if they return to Heian capital?It seems that the Mitsui family is also facing a desperate situation this time.

"I have an idea here, you might as well listen to it." Ji Zong looked at Jun Mitsui, who leaned forward with his ear, and said in a low voice, "Listen quietly to the teachings."

"You can ask someone to tell the general that your Mitsui family is willing to lend this 'imperial gold' to the general. You don't need to repay the principal, but you only need to pay the interest on a yearly basis." Ji Zong said simply, the Mitsui family was originally in this business , It was clear at one point, she raised her head in surprise, and looked at the 15-year-old girl in front of her.This method is of course good, in fact, it is not important to them not to pay it back, but in this case, they will become the general's creditors, or partners, and they will naturally count on the big tree of the general.Loaning money to the general is too good, it is better than any royal businessman.Ji Zong saw her bright eyes, knowing that she had understood what he meant.

"It's just that the money was originally a tribute and there was no need to repay it, but now there is interest. The general may not agree." Jun Mitsui asked cautiously, with a more respectful attitude than before.In fact, the money may not necessarily be given to the general, otherwise she would not have to look for Ji Tong, but Ji Zong would not point out this.

Ji Zong said, "If the general disagrees, you might as well tell her a story. Say that there is a chicken that can lay golden eggs, and one will be laid every day. As a result, one day, the owner of the chicken thinks it is too slow, so he kills the chicken. The golden egg was taken from the stomach. The next day, the owner regretted it, because the chicken was gone, and there was no more golden egg."

Mitsui Hayao raised his head in surprise, and looked at Yoshinaka's eyes.She knelt down and kowtowed to Ji Zong a few times, raised her head and said in a low voice, "Ki Yiden's great favor, the Mitsui family will remember it in their hearts!" That is to say, no matter whether something is successful or not, they will be rewarded generously.Ji Zong snorted softly, still looking at the yard, "Go back, I have to sit for a while, sober up." This is because he doesn't want to go back with him, and Mitsui Hayao naturally knows it!He rubbed his palms happily, bowed again, and went back to the house lightly on his feet.When he started serving again, he became a little absent-minded, wishing to end the banquet immediately and go home to talk to the people in the clan.

Ji Zong thought, this person is not stupid, he didn't ask what to do if he offended the Owari family.If you want to come here, you also know that if you compare two benefits, choose the greater, and if you compare two harms, you should choose the lesser. Sure enough, if the world's affairs are only calculated based on benefits, it will be much simpler and clearer.Don't say that Jitong is not a general now. Even if she becomes a general, she is still a debtor. Moreover, she still has a group of people under her command, so it is impossible for her to do whatever she wants.The Mitsui family hugged the general's thick leg, and the road ahead was much smoother.It's just that why I helped her, of course I also have a plan!After all, Ji Yifan's economic situation is not very optimistic. Now, what Jizong thinks in his heart is how to revive and develop the economy.If the Mitsui family can repay their kindness, it would be most convenient for them to lend a helping hand during Jiyi's economic development.

"Hehe, it sounds ridiculous, but how many people in the world are doing such stupid things."

"Who!" Ji Zong touched his waist subconsciously, only to remember that he didn't bring his ribs and Taidao today.

"It's really a crime to disturb your lord's enjoyment of the scenery." A man came out of the shadows, and he didn't know how long he had been there.Ji Zong was secretly surprised, thinking that she has outstanding hearing, but she didn't realize when this person came.The man gradually walked to the moonlight and smiled at Ji Zong.This man was in his 20s, mature and steady, his hair was not too long and he was combed into a ponytail, but he had two more bangs on the side of his face than Ji Zong's, hanging down to his chin, which made this man's not-so-excellent facial features gentler.

Ji Zong looked at the person coming and was secretly surprised. This person was tall, with broad shoulders, deep-set eyes, deep breathing, and because he hadn't noticed his arrival before, he guessed that this person should be excellent in martial arts.It's just, in a brothel, what are you doing with such superb martial arts skills?Moreover, this person was wearing a gray Wu suit, covered with a black haori, and held a folding fan in his hand, and his bearing was extraordinary.This dress and demeanor are not like those who received guests at Takashima House. She also took a rough look at what this Yoshiwara man looked like along the way.If it weren't for the entire Yoshihara here, the people who pick up the guests are all men, she must have thought that this man came to have sex, not to be prostituted.

"I hope I didn't disturb my lord's pleasure." The man bowed slightly.

"Anyone can come here, and it's not my place, so why bother." Ji Zong felt that he should be almost sober, so it's time to go back to the banquet.

"My lord's magnanimity is really admirable." The man said with a smile, he was obviously aggressive, but he put on an amiable appearance, which made Ji Zong feel that it was against harmony.If it weren't for this person's strong martial arts, Yoshihara might be the place where the dragon is hidden and the tiger is crouching. Jizong has the heart to kill this person to silence him. "It's easy to say." She took back her legs that were hanging outside, and walked towards the room with bare feet.The man looked at the direction in which she disappeared, and suppressed his smile, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Master Ji Wen, why are you here? Let me find it easy." A boy in a red flying flower Wu suit ran up to the man panting. "Could it be that you forgot that Mrs. Takahashi is still waiting for you at Chaoyan Pavilion."

Ji Wen patted the boy's head, took out a bag of candy from his wide sleeve, and stuffed it to him, "Here, please eat."

"Thank you, Master Ji Wen." This guest has always been generous, and he always hides candy money in his sleeve. Everyone in Takashima House likes him.The boy was even more happy that he took the initiative to take on the task of finding someone this time. Whoever came to find the adults, everyone was overwhelmed.The boy was greedy, looked at Ji Wen, and smiled sweetly at him. He grew up in this environment, and learned along the way from serving Mrs. Gao Qiao. He also had some experience in how to please people.

"Try it, is it delicious?" Ji Wen casually pointed at the candy, the boy nodded vigorously, unfolded the beautiful candy wrapper, squeezed one out from the inside, and put it in his mouth.So sweet, it melted his heart. "Eat and eat, too." He squeezed one and handed it to Ji Wen on tiptoe.Ji Wen is tall, he bent down, and the boy stuffed the candy into his mouth. "It's really good." The boy already knew it at a young age, and only with proper rewards can he gain more.

Sure enough, Ji Wen said, "If you like it, I'll bring it back for you next time I come, don't tell them." He raised his index finger and put it against his lips.The boy nodded happily, quickly put away the candy, took Ji Wen's sleeve, and pulled him towards Chaoyang Pavilion.When passing by Ji Zong's room, Ji Wen casually asked, "Who owns the Peony Pavilion today?"

On weekdays, he was the one who used the Peony Pavilion, but today he was told that someone had taken over it.However, the Taifu and Grid of this Takashimaya didn't go in to serve, so he asked, and the boy didn't think it was strange, and explained with a flattering expression, "I don't know where the samurai came from. He said his surname is Matsudaira." He is by Taifu Gaoqiao's side, and he is also the successor of Taifu. He has seen a lot and knows a lot, and he teaches meticulously. How to distinguish people is the first lesson.

Ji Wen nodded. He happened to overhear the conversation between Ji Zong and Mitsui Hayao, and he wanted to make friends, but he didn't know that the other party was so cautious, so he had no choice but to give up and think about it later.Seeing that he didn't care very much, the boy breathed a sigh of relief.The boss didn't expect that Ji Wen would come today after suffering a loss yesterday, so he dared to give the room to someone else.There is no need to explain, everyone is very careful when serving Ji Wen today, not to mention, the people in Takashima House still like Ji Wen very much.Except Huafan, but if he becomes Huafan's guest, Huafan probably loves him to death, the boy complained secretly in his heart.

Ji Zong went back to the house, drank again and pretended to be drunk. After thinking about that man, she let it go.Those who hang out in this place, even if the background is not simple, know what to say and what not to say, and they didn't say anything, did they?It's just that she doesn't know that, in fact, men can visit Yoshiwara, and they can also have sex.
