Fifty taels of silver, according to the fineness of Japanese silver, can be exchanged for almost forty or fifty yuan. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

As for the two people in front of them, they were exchanged for a thousand yuan. What does this mean? It means that wealth worth at least a thousand taels of silver is in their hands.

Finding this, everyone felt that their cheeks were leaking, and the sound of gasping and cooling air rang out one after another.

The bride price of fifty taels of silver is enough to marry a girl from an upper-middle family.

In recent years, the samurai have become more and more unhappy, and there have been more and more wandering samurai. It was not easy for even a full-fledged samurai to marry, let alone a wandering samurai who had no fixed place to live and no income.

One thousand taels of silver is enough for twenty people to marry a girl from a good family who they never dared to think of in their previous lives.

At this time, everyone couldn't help but look sideways, and their eyes fell on Maruhashi Tadaya's eyes, all of which were deeply compassionate.

God is pitiful, the samurai of the Satsuma Domain have worked there all their lives, and I am afraid that they have saved the fifty taels of silver. But after a lifetime of struggle, I finally got a beat, but I found that I had kicked the iron plate.

1,000 yuan, it doesn't seem like the other party's entire family. This Maruhashi Tadaya, this time it's really embarrassing.

The shocking discovery was followed by endless doubts.

Maruhashi Tadaya looked at the man in front of him with a trembling body, and said everyone's doubts in a trembling voice: "You...... How can you have this thousand dollars? Did you loot any big shops? ”

As if it were intentional, the blanket on the counter was still there, and the gold and silver next to the blanket were also placed in the same way.

The Friendship Department Store under the glass skylight shines directly into the building, and the light is excellent, and the words "golden light" and "silver light destruction" are vividly interpreted.

Everyone looked at the golden and silver light, and they felt their breathing speed up, and they were a little out of breath.

At this moment, listening to Maruhashi Tadaya's trembling voice, they naturally looked over curiously.

"How can a group of outlaws have so much gold, so much silver?"

"A thousand dollars! It's enough to marry twenty beautiful girls from middle-class families! ”

"How can this group of damn wandering warriors have so much money, how can they have so much money?"

……

Even a full-fledged samurai can only save a few dozen taels of silver in his life, let alone a group of wandering samurai.

Everyone looked at Iida Yoshihiro, full of unwillingness and disbelief.

"Don't forget, I'm a brave man who sailed abroad with my apprentices five years ago." After Iida Yoshihiro finished speaking, he suddenly looked at Maruhashi Tadaya with an expression of infinite pity and said, "You are also a man who once followed His Excellency Yui to the sea, but you listened to the words of a stupid person and chose to become a domestic samurai. But I don't know that overseas is where real men should go! ”

"In that faraway Luzon, faraway America, there is an endless amount of gold and silver waiting for us."

"The overseas world has endless treasures to explore. Don't you want to know how this thousand dollars came about? I tell you, this is the spoils I won when I followed the steps of the Ming warriors and conquered the Luzon barbarians, and this piece of dog's head gold is my honor! ”

"I heard that in the east of the sea, there is a place where you can bend down to pick up gold and silver. And you...... chose to give up. It's a pity that I only got these fifty taels of silver......"

After speaking, Iida Yoshihiro clapped his hands with a hundred treasure bills of 1,000 yuan, and laughed: "Let's go, go in and see, in this department store with everything, can you buy a decent bride price for your marriage!" ”

The noise was over, and Tadaya Maruhashi listlessly bought something and left the department store.

And countless people with a heart chased after Maruqiao Tadaya and asked.

Those who didn't know a few samurai soon saw the incredible purchasing power of these two wandering samurai.

1,000 yuan is almost at least 1,000 taels of silver, and where the cost of this middle-aged family is only 20 taels of silver a year, 1,000 taels of silver is enough for at least fifty families to live nourishingly for a year.

There were all kinds of powerful and wealthy merchants in Edo, but this was the first time I had seen a wealthy wandering samurai.

Of course...... It's not appropriate to say that they are still wandering samurai, they are now wandering samurai who have gone abroad. This also shows that they already have a place to go and a home, even if they are looked down upon as employees of merchants.

After this scene, no one is still qualified to look down on them.

Who has a thousand dollars of capital? No one has money, so what can they talk about.

The Friendship Department Store witnessed the fortune of two wandering samurai, and the news spread quickly. Although they are no longer considered wandering warriors, for countless people with hearts, they attach great importance to the word wandering warriors.

Even if someone wants the daimyo samurai, their hearts are eager to try: a few samurai who have no identity can make so much money, why can't they be more sophisticated in martial arts?

Those who have already become wandering samurai are even more like grasping at a life-saving straw, and they are in a commotion.

"A wandering warrior who is good for nothing and has poor martial arts skills can earn thousands of taels of silver with the Ming people. As a full-fledged samurai of the shogunate, he was able to contact dozens of people to rise up together...... Why can't I? ”

"Damn the closure of the country, the daimyo everywhere no longer need new samurai. After more than ten years of martial arts training, but no longer able to win the identity of a samurai, for those of us who can only fight and kill all our lives...... What else is there to do? Yoshihiro Iida...... Okay, good, I remember the name, this is a chance! Perhaps, it is the last chance! ”

"Is it true that overseas is a place with countless wealth? In Japan, what about being a daimyo? Maybe...... This is a rare opportunity. The Emperor of the Ming Kingdom is in Japan, and if he misses it, he will never have a chance again......"

In the calm and bustling city of Edo, the tide is about to gather.

Nanpai Dojo.

A news quietly spread in Edo Castle that the master of the Nan faction of military arts, who had gone abroad with hundreds of samurai back then, returned to Edo and began to officially recruit children. And it is rumored that this one is going to take the Japanese samurai abroad and fight for a future Yui Masayuki.

For Yui Masayuki, this name is somewhat unfamiliar to Edo Castle.

But there are only a few such strangeness. Many people quickly recalled who this famous figure was.

Three years ago, it was he who took away hundreds of wandering samurai in Edo, causing many big names in the shogunate to rejoice. In that transaction, the Ming people sent a lot of raw silk, but they took away the wandering samurai who gave the shogunate a headache.

As for the leader of these wandering samurai, it is naturally the person who is famous as Masayuki Yui.

Actually, it's been a while since Yui Masayuki returned to Edo.

It's just that during this time, he didn't make a big deal of talking to his old friends in Edo, nor did he have the opportunity to show off his wealth like Iida Yoshihiro.

Therefore, although a few people know that Yui Zhengxue has returned to China, and even some people know that Yui Zhengxue has begun to recruit disciples, it doesn't feel like a big deal.

For the people of Edo, there are a lot of new things, and a Yui Masayuki is really not a big man.

But now, everything has changed.

The glittering gold catches everyone's eye.

A well-known poor man suddenly gained a fortune so generous that he could give his twenty men a wife.

The story of such an overnight fortune was really an atomic bomb for the people of Edo.

The people of Edo, who had not been baptized by the information age, lacked immunity.

The depressed daimyo, the ambitious merchants, the samurai who were worried about the time to be laid off, and the wandering samurai who had no way back and could not get worse were all eyeing the news.

They have their own agendas, but they have surprisingly consistent goals.

Opportunities in the pursuit of wealth.

At one time, such an opportunity was almost non-existent for Japan.

But now, the arrival of the Akito, the story of Yoshihiro Iida...... All of them bring hope to everyone, like the dawn of dawn.

At this time, the trace of Iida Yoshihiro became the focus of everyone's attention.

Soon someone inquired about the residence of Yoshihiro Iida, and the name Yui Masayuki became famous in Edo overnight.

It turned out that Iida Ryohiro was just a small leader, and above him, there was a big guy named Masayuki Yui.

It was this person who brought hundreds of samurai abroad and won wealth and honor. And now, he has returned to Japan, come to Edo, and set up the name of the Nanpai Dojo.

What makes everyone excited is even more ...... At this time, the Nanpai Dojo played the name of recruiting children.

"Your name?"

"Ryohei Ogura."

"Are you literate, and you seem to have experience in martial arts? How long have you been practicing martial arts. Are there any special abilities? ”

"Recognize some...... Do you speak Chinese or Japanese? You're right, I've been practicing martial arts for fifteen years. Special Abilities...... In his spare time, he will help a grain store next door to do some bookkeeping work. Of course...... This will not affect my martial arts in any way! ”

"Hmm...... Good. Next. Name, literacy, main abilities, what are the special abilities? ”

"Hello, Takuto Akiyama...... Illiterate, I have a pride in drawing a knife......"

"Next...... names, etc...... How old are you? ”

"Aha, it's not a secret...... I had a relationship with His Excellency Masayuki Yui. When the children ...... Don't do it. If I have the opportunity, I am very eager to talk to His Excellency Masayuki Yui. Under the name...... It's Ken Yasuhara......"

……

Kanai Hanbei carefully looked at the appearance of the man in front of him, and smiled dumbly. The man in front of him was about forty years old, but looking at the outfit, he was really not rich at all, and he tried his best to pretend to be decent, but as long as he glanced at the corner of his eye, he could see many traces of patches.

Obviously, this is an old friend of Yui Masayuki. And he's an old friend who doesn't mix well. Of course, the relationship should not be very close. Otherwise, as long as it is a letter, Yui Masayuki's character will not refuse to meet.

It's just that this guy named Ken Yasuhara obviously didn't expect that the originally loosely managed Nanpai Dojo would suddenly become so strict and would check the identity of visitors.

You know, many dojos don't reject strange wandering warriors. As long as they can afford to pay for it, or sell themselves to the name of the dojo.

"I see...... Well, just wait. Please wait at the reception center. I hope to understand that Yui-san is busier than we thought at the moment......" Kanai Hanbei showed a helpless expression, rubbed the barrel of the pen, and shouted, "Next." ”

After speaking, he didn't care about the expression of the man named An Yuanjian who blushed and didn't dare to leave.

It's just that Yasuhara Ken seems to want to struggle for a while, rubbing, and stopping when he wants to speak. Before he could figure out what to say, the people behind him were clamoring.

"Ken Yasuhara? Isn't it the former great enemy of the Nan Sect Dojo and the proud disciple of the Shadow Flow Dojo? It seems that he is still too embarrassed, obviously thinking about the opportunity to go abroad and follow the Ming people, but he can't pull it off! ”

"Hmph, a declining Shadow Flow Dojo, who remembers what kind of character it is? That's why an old man like you will come. What the hell, so many people are queuing up to sign up, who knows if there is a chance to go abroad or if there is my name? ”

"Shut up, Saburo. Don't make trouble! In the presence of Lord Yui, keep your virtue! However, Ken Yasuhara, leaving early without anything to do will delay our time to learn from His Excellency Yui, and everyone will hate you for it! ”

……

The people behind him were so delayed that they shouted loudly.

Hearing this, Ken Yasuhara didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly went to the place called the meeting house pointed by Kanai Hanbei with a red face.

Just looking at it, Ken Yasuhara couldn't help but feel staggered.

Other people's places and waiting places are basically called meeting rooms. However, because of the sudden increase in fame and the flow of people here, a courtyard was opened to entertain guests waiting to be received.

Here, Ken Yasuhara suddenly became cautious.

Almost everyone here is not something he can afford to provoke. Not only did I see a few wealthy businessmen, but I also saw a small country and a big name waiting here uncomfortably.

There are many people waiting, but their status is more precious than the other.

He waited anxiously in his heart, only to find that half an hour had passed, and only one person had walked in.

On the contrary, there were more and more people waiting in the courtyard.

It was time for dinner, and Ken Yasuhara hastily enjoyed the lunch prepared by the dojo, although he was anxious in his heart, he did not dare to show the slightest slackness.

That glittering gold has ignited everyone's desire......

"I really don't know what Yui Masayuki is at this time...... Isn't it too busy, so many people...... It's enough to bear, it's just that you can't miss the thing about going abroad! Ken Yasuhara cheered himself up.

……

I don't know...... What kind of mood would Yasuhara Ken feel if he saw Yui Masayuki at the moment.

At this moment, Yui Masayuki couldn't see that he was busy at all, he was leisurely eating with Maruhashi Tadaya, Iida Yoshihiro, and Li Yan, the manager of the Friendship Department Store.
