In addition to some of the members' strange ways of earning extra money (for example, Kawakami Mansai is the music producer of the famous Edo idol Temple Mondori), smuggling accounts for a large part of the ghost soldier team's income.
However, even though smuggling was lucrative, it was still not enough compared to the expenses.
"I don't know much about economics." Tang Jinyue said with some trouble.
"However, I still have one or two immature suggestions on how to increase assets rapidly."
In the smuggling business of the Ghost Soldier Squad, the main trading objects are heaven and man.They transport earth-specific products from the earth, such as silk, handmade products, and some foods that can be stored for a long time.
The shogunate has extremely strict management of transactions with heaven and man, and the taxes are frighteningly high.Of course, the main object of taxation is earthlings.
He didn't have the guts to ask heaven and man for money, so he could only get it back from the people under his jurisdiction.
Because of such strict foreign trade, the smuggling business in this country has been endless.Tang Jinyue did not expect that the ghost soldiers also rely on this industry to barely make ends meet.
It seems that perhaps during the smuggling process, Shinsuke Takasugi hooked up with the Spring Rain Pirates.
Smuggling is actually a very good development direction.Tang Jinyue thought seriously.Celestial beings are interested in special products on the earth, and many high-tech products on the planet cannot be bought on the earth.
After questioning, Tang Jinyue found that the ghost soldiers had not yet met the Chunyu pirates.Dealing with Chunyu would definitely do more harm than good.
Greedy pirates may not abide by the agreement at all, and it is common for them to turn their faces and kill people after receiving the goods.Moreover, many of the items they need are slaves who challenge the conscience of normal people.
If it weren't for the existence of Shenwei, the commander of Chunyu's seventh division, Tang Jinyue felt that the ghost soldiers should be as far away from Chunyu as possible.That's right, to put it bluntly, he just wanted to get in touch with Kamui.
Get online with Shenwei early, and you can solve many problems earlier.
As for the daily expenses, Tang Jinyue said very unscrupulously, "The princes and generals are better?"
Whether it is those high-ranking shogunate officials who are domineering or their minions all over the country, the benefits of robbery are huge and there is no psychological burden.
Takasugi Shinsuke assassinated people in the shogunate more than once, and so did Wanqi Kawagami.However, every time they killed someone, they left in a big way, taking nothing away, except the lives of those people.
"It's such a waste!" Tang Jinyue said sadly, "Since you can successfully assassinate, why don't you go around twice? See if there are any confidential documents or the like that can be sold for money! And those guys' Heads, selling them to their political opponents can also make a lot of money! Not to mention their own wealth!"
"It's decided! Next time you go out to work, take me with you, and I'll show you what it means to make the best use of everything!"
Takasugi Shinsuke paused holding the pipe for a moment, he felt that his newly recruited men were unexpectedly motivated.

Toshio Okubo was alone in the study.
In the dimly lit room, only a candle on the desk glowed faintly.Even though electric lights with better lighting effects have become popular in Edo with the arrival of heaven and man, Okubo Toshio, who has the ancient and noble surname inheritance of "Okubo", still prefers to use candles.
Perhaps the atmosphere that candles can create cannot be achieved by electric lights.
The more confidential documents he deals with, the more he prefers a dark environment.Like creatures in the dark doomed to rot in the dark.
Tokugawa Masahiro's assassination case is still pending. As the magistrate in charge of the police administration of Edo castle town, Toshio Okubo is very busy.Suspicious people are caught in prison every day, but most of them are ordinary people who know nothing about the assassination.
Of course, there will occasionally be some oolong incidents, such as the arrest of the eyeliner of a certain shogunate official.It is said that even Her Royal Highness the Princess once went to fish her friend out of prison.
However, it would be wrong to say that there is no gain at all.Several anti-barbarians were also arrested.But their mouths were very rigid, and they didn't even confess which anti-barbarian organization they belonged to.
Toshio Okubo decided to step up the process of extorting confessions from them and extract as much information as possible from them.Then, make the best use of everything to let them be sent to the execution ground as the murderers who "assassinated Masahiro Tokugawa".
Maybe, based on the information he obtained, he could wipe out those exiles and capture Katsura Kotaro and Takasugi Shinsuke alive.I believe that with this feat, the official position can be further promoted.
Didn't the seat of the dead Masahiro Tokugawa happen to be vacant?Try hard and maybe you will be able to get on.
However, Okubo Toshio's expression darkened immediately when he thought of this.He stared at this position, and naturally other people were also eager to try.For example, the uncle of the cousin of the girlfriend of the nephew of the nephew of the former general Tokugawa Sadasada.
Toshio Okubo knew that the real power in the shogunate was still the former general, and he also tried his best to curry favor with Tokugawa in order to obtain more benefits.However, there are plenty of people who can flatter Tokugawa Dingding, and if he wants to stand out from a bunch of sycophants, he must also show hard work results that can beat all other sycophants.
If he can really solve the old problem of the barbarians who have always been against the shogunate, Ruo Nian Ji's position will be at his fingertips!
Thinking of his upcoming promotion and salary increase, taking care of Yoshiwara's most beautiful husband, and reaching the pinnacle of his life, Toshio Okubo giggled.
In the dark night, Toshio Okubo stretched his waist after sorting out official documents.
The teapot on the table had already run out, so he called the servant waiting outside the door, asking him to come in and add some tea.
He shouted twice but didn't hear a reply, and Toshio Okubo felt angry.It seems that he was too lenient towards his servants, and even gave them the courage to skip work and sneak around while working.
Toshio Okubo stood up, ready to go out and teach those daring servants personally.
As soon as he stood up, he saw the strings reflecting the cold luster under the moonlight.Like a fine spider web, all his retreats were blocked.
Those prey who fall into the spider's web must be so desperate.
"Come on..." Toshio Okubo wanted to call out, but just as he opened his mouth, a string that was still dripping with blood was pointed straight at his throat, which meant that he would pierce right through when he shouted.
I don't know when there were two more figures outside the study.One is wearing headphones and holding a shamisen in his hand; the other seems to be wearing a tracksuit, looking like a student who just finished a night run.
They stood in front of Toshio Okubo against the moonlight, like the gods of death who came to claim their lives.
The man with the shamisen flipped over the window neatly and landed in the study.Toshio Okubo saw that the source of the "spider web" in front of him was the string of the shamisen in this man's hand.
"If you're wondering why no one has come yet, the answer is simple, they can't." The young man in tracksuit carefully climbed over the window and stumbled when he landed, thanks to the help of his companions He managed to avoid close contact with the floor.
He didn't feel embarrassed at all, and continued: "Speaking of which, you are also a high-ranking official of the shogunate, why don't you find more people who can be beaten as bodyguards? It's too careless to let everyone down in less than 10 minutes Right? Fortunately, I thought I would have strenuous exercise tonight, so I changed into sportswear."
"No, Fujimaru, your exercise tonight is to walk from the gate to this side." His companion, the one with the shamisen in his hand, pierced him mercilessly.
"It's too much, Mr. Kawagami," the Fujimaru complained half-truthfully, "I can only use my brain."
Toshio Okubo watched the two uninvited guests talking cross talk in front of him blankly, and refused to let him speak.Every time he tried to move, the strings left a slight trace on him, menacingly.
He really wanted to yell "If you want to kill, you have to cut it! What kind of a man is he!", he had wanted to try this line for a long time, but he didn't expect to have the opportunity today.
"If you want to kill, you have to cut it more quickly! What kind of man is he who dawdles!" Thinking of this, Toshio Okubo ignored those strings that would kill people, and roared.
Both Fujimaru and Kawakami were stunned for a moment.
Fujimaru blinked, and said innocently: "We don't want to kill you or cut you now, please don't be sentimental."
"Then what are you doing here in the middle of the night? Performance art?" Okubo Toshio said harshly.He prayed in his heart that there were still people alive at home, and someone noticed that he was in crisis right now, so they rushed to rescue soldiers.
"Aren't we afraid that you will be too nervous and let you relax a little bit." Fujimaru shrugged, "If you want someone to help you call the police, you can avoid it. You are the only one in your family who is still awake."
Toshio Okubo panicked: "What the hell did you do! What happened to me, my wife and children are innocent!"
What is the origin of these people?He has been thinking about this question since he was kidnapped, and he listened to their nonsense in silence before trying to find clues from the conversation.
However, apart from these two, one is called Fujimaru and the other is called Kawagami, and the one named Fujimaru is not a force faction.
