Chapter 259: The Shopkeeper of Kyoto
Chapter 259 The Shopkeeper of Kyoto
Under the gaze of the crowd, the clan went all the way forward, and when he came to the middle of the most prosperous street, he saw that in front of the largest and most luxurious shop in front of him, there were more than a dozen people with neat heads and hands dressed up, and in front of them, there was a young man wearing a silk jacket and a folding fan at his waist, this young man was looking around at the moment.
He was obviously supposed to be the shopkeeper of this shop, and when he saw the clan and his party, he didn't hesitate anymore. Hurriedly took a dozen heads behind him, and walked towards the direction of the clan sect.
At this time, I only heard Nakamura Kazushi pointing forward and said with a smile: "Lord, in front of you is the Kyoto Sparrow House." ”
When his voice fell, I saw that the young man had already come to the clan with his head and hand, and said respectfully: "The villain Kyoto Sparrow House shopkeeper Naya Sukezaemon sees the lord. ”
Originally, when the clan saw this young man, he was a little unhappy in his heart, after all, being young means having little experience, and the clan was afraid that he would not be able to control the field, and then he would lose all the sparrow house that he had spent a lot of money to build, so he couldn't help but complain a little about Nakamura Yishi.
However, when he heard that the person in front of him was Nayasukezaemon, his displeasure was immediately replaced by joy, and not only did he not have the slightest sense of blame for Nakamura for a while, but he also had the heart to reward him for his discernment.
Speaking of which, the main reason why this Naya Sukezaemon became the shopkeeper of the Kyoto Sparrow House was his own choice.
Originally, Nayasuke Saemon was just a handman in Kakukuraya, Kyoto, although the salary was meager, but he could also eat without worry, if he was someone else, he might have been very satisfied with this, but, what kind of person is Nayasuke Saemon, it was a very famous wealthy businessman in the Warring States Period, in history, although not as good as Yamada Nagamasa, but he was definitely a wealthy man with a number of numbers, and even in terms of fame, it was even more than that.
People like him,How can he be satisfied with three meals and clothing,So before the sparrow house just selected a location,Before it opened,He resolutely resigned from the job of Kakukura House hand,Go to the sparrow house to try his luck,This is not his whim,As early as a year ago,When he went to the boundary town to buy,,He found that the most prosperous shop there is not a shop such as Tennoya,But a sparrow house only for entertainment,Since then,He began to pay attention,However,What he didn't expect was that, As soon as he returned to Kyoto, there was a sparrow house to be opened here, and Naya Sukezaemon said that if he didn't seize this opportunity, he would probably never have such an opportunity again.
The current Nayasuke Saemon doesn't have such a big goal, and his biggest wish is to be a treasurer, and he does have the ability.
Soon, Nakamura Kazuji, who was in charge here, discovered his talent, and even sometimes, his advice was more comprehensive than he thought, especially in the face of those ministers, this Naya Sukezaemon was more decent in handling this matter, and after trying a few times, Nakamura Kazushi didn't have any worries, so before returning to Owari, he was relieved to hand over the Kyoto Sparrow House to him to take care of the reason.
Although the clan didn't know what had happened to Lu Dao before, he knew that Lu Dao wanted to keep Naya Suke Saemon no matter what, and if he was kept, it would be equivalent to the existence of another God of Wealth in the family.
Thinking of this, I only heard the clan say again: "Nayasuke Saemon, are you willing to become a samurai?" ”
"This ......" Nayasuke Saemon muttered, it was too sudden, no matter how smart he was, he didn't expect the Lord Guild to say such shocking words.
I'm just a businessman, so I can say that I can't be powerless, how can I become a samurai, this is too ridiculous. He didn't know how to do it, and this is how Nagamasa, who is currently in charge of the Sparrow House, became a samurai, so if he knew it, he wouldn't be so surprised.
However, even so, this Nayasuke Saemon and Yamada Nagamasa thought the same, they were both pure businessmen, and they were not very interested in becoming samurai, so I only heard him boldly say, "My lord, villain... The villain just wants to be the shopkeeper of the Kyoto Sparrow House, and he doesn't want to... I don't want to be a samurai, so I ask my lord to forgive me. ”
After saying that, Nayasuke Saemon raised his eyes and secretly looked at the Xiang clan, for fear that the other party would be angry and directly kill himself. …,
If he hadn't wanted to keep him, the clan wouldn't have made such a move, although the retainers also betrayed the lord sometimes, but in this era, this method is still somewhat helpful in retaining talents.
Clan Zong didn't feel much surprised when he refused, after all, when he recruited Yamada Nagamasa, he had already been rejected once, so Clan Zong still threw out the conditions when recruiting Yamada Nagamasa back then, promising that the other party would not have to go to the battlefield and would only be responsible for the storefront.
Nayasuke Saemon heard the lord publicly offer such generous conditions, and if he didn't agree, it would be a little inappropriate, so he only heard Nayasuke Saemon hurriedly speak: "Subordinates see the lord!" ”
Seeing that he had recruited another talent, the clan couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said loudly: "Okay, I now appoint you as the head of the Takayama family, and you will be fully responsible for the affairs of the Kyoto Sparrow House. ”
"Please rest assured that your subordinates will live up to the trust of your lord." After saying that, I saw Naya Suke Saemon salute and then said, "Please go to the sparrow house to talk." ”
Since it was just dawn, there was only one table of all-night customers in the sparrow house, still playing cards, but judging by their angry and listless appearance, it should be almost time to leave.
The structure of this Kyoto mahjong house is the same as that of Kiyosu Town and Kai Town, with a place for use and entertainment in the front and a water tea house in the back. Accompanied by everyone, the clan only took a cursory turn, and then found a luxuriously decorated quiet room and walked in.
In the quiet room, I saw the clan sitting on the main seat in front of the center, with Keiji Maeda standing behind him, and Nakamura Kazuji and Nayasuke Saemon sitting on the left and right.
After everyone sat down, I saw Nayasuke Saemon first present the account book in his hand to the lord, and said: "Lord, according to your instructions, the amount of credit owed to the minister every year is recorded on it, and there are the specific expenses owed by each minister in the past few years, these fees are as of June this year, and the handprint on it is the secretary's drawing, in case of emergency, and please check it." ”……,
