"Huh? Sea trade? Nanban merchants? Looking for me to borrow money? Oda Nobunaga looked at Oda Yoshinobu with a strange face, his voice became louder and louder every time, that exaggerated appearance, Oda Yoshinobu was unhappy, but what could he do? He was the one who borrowed the money now, and he had to endure it no matter how he could.

It's a pity that his tolerance was not exchanged for Oda Nobunaga's consent, and after he finished speaking, he was followed by a big gasp, "You kid is dreaming, right?" Oda Nobunaga gouged out his ears and said with a look of disdain.

"Huh?!" Oda Yoshinobu stood up suddenly, looking at Oda Nobunaga with an unkind expression, that posture, it seemed that if Oda Nobunaga said something he didn't want to hear, then go straight to work.

"I said, you! Small! Child! Do! Dream! This! Right!? Oda Nobunaga was not afraid at all, and still sat there and said with a disdainful expression, and by the way, he also shouted to let Nohime pour wine.

"You bastard!" Oda Yoshinobu muttered through gritted teeth, but in the end he sat down honestly. No way, who told him to borrow money?

"Say, why don't you say yes?!" Oda Yoshinobu said angrily, although Li Huamei had already told him the reason, he still wanted to hear Oda Nobunaga's thoughts. After all, building a fleet that has always been strong and a fleet of ships for maritime trade can not only make a lot of money, but can also be very useful in times of war.

"Why didn't you say yes?" Oda Nobunaga looked at Oda Yoshinobu with a puzzled expression, as if asking, "It's strange that I agreed, right?" ”

Then, Oda Nobunaga suddenly put on a serious look, "Yoshinobu, you should understand that the current strategic focus of the family is all on Mino, and all the resources are also for attacking Mino. ”

"I know, that's why I'm planning to do sea trade, so that I can get more money?" Yoshinobu Oda said his thoughts.

"Indeed, if successful...... But what if it fails? That woman named Lilu Argot is probably not even 20 years old, right? It is indeed a remarkable thing for a woman of this age to lead a group of men from the distant continent of Europa to Japan, but that does not prove that she has excellent business skills. Oda Nobunaga Masasei said.

"Moreover, you should know that the power of pirates in the open seas, if you want to be big, having a strong navy is a must. But...... Do you know how much it costs for a ship that can go out to sea? Oda Nobunaga asked again, but without waiting for Oda Yoshinobu to answer, he directly said the answer, "If you want to build two or three large ocean-going ships, you don't have to attack Mino in two or three years." ”

"Well......" Oda Yoshinobu heard this, and he didn't speak after answering, he couldn't convince Li Huamei and his daughters, and naturally he couldn't convince Oda Nobunaga, he knew this very well. And he couldn't tell Oda Nobunaga how awesome Rilu Argot's business skills were. It is even more impossible to directly say to Oda Nobunaga that in two or three years, you should not be delusional about taking Mino at all.

However, it doesn't matter, after all, he didn't really plan to let Oda Nobunaga pay tens of thousands of kan to buy him a boat, not to mention that there is no sailing ship in his impression in Japan today. What kind of boat with human oars goes out to sea? Well, if these people can paddle to the New World......

"In that case, brother, I have another idea." Oda Yoshinobu immediately spoke his thoughts. Well, in fact, his idea is very simple, that is, he will pay Lilu Argot to run the chamber of commerce and make money from it. If it is indeed very profitable, then he will be able to build ships himself and go to sea.

"This ......" Oda Nobunaga looked at Oda Yoshinobu with a headache, why didn't he know that his brother was so unprofessional? What is a Merchant? In this era, it is almost as lowly as a ninja. Of course, merchants have money, which makes them ostensibly equal to or even higher than many of the daimyo in many cases. But even the merchants themselves understood how unpopular their status was with the samurai.

This is why most merchants will pay for a samurai status. Of course, there is another practice that successful businessmen prefer to comfort themselves to, and that is the tea ceremony.

Almost most successful merchants would be famous tea men, and samurai were very fond of the tea ceremony. Therefore, these merchants can easily enter the samurai group as tea heads, and their status is still very high. For example, the later famous Qianzong Yi, Tsuda Zonghe and Imai Zongjiu, they were all businessmen and very successful merchants, but in historical records, when they are mentioned, they are often described as tea people, and these three are known as "the three masters of the world".

All these things show that the status of businessmen is really low in this era. Of course, this is not an isolated case, as this is basically the case in every country in this era, or it should be said that it was not until the advent of capitalism that the status of merchants was instantly raised.

And now, Oda Yoshinobu wants to do business? Well, it was he who accepted a merchant retainer to let him go into business, but in the eyes of others, this is Oda Yoshinobu running to do business. After all, the other daimyo collected taxes from merchants and the like, while Oda Yoshinobu directly contributed money.

"Brother, what are you hesitating about? You know, it's the best way to make money! I believe in Lilu's business ability, hmph, maybe in 1 or 2 years, you will find out that I am richer than you. Oda Yoshinobu saw that Oda Nobunaga didn't speak, and hurriedly continued to persuade.

"You......" Oda Nobunaga looked at Oda Yoshinobu helplessly, he could hear it, this kid had already made up his mind. And he will come here because he wants to save some of his own money. Thinking of this, Oda Nobunaga couldn't help but feel unhappy for a while, "You have money to spend casually, come to me if you don't have it, are you the lord or am I the lord?" ”

Just thinking about it, Nonghime next to him suddenly asked, "Overlord Maru, is that Lilu a very beautiful girl?" ”

"yes." When Oda Yoshinobu heard this, he answered directly without much thought. But he reacted immediately, looking at Oda Nobunaga as he was, and hurriedly defended, "Hmph! I'm because Lilu Argot has that business ability, not because she's beautiful! ”

Unfortunately, no matter what he said, neither of them believed it. This can't be helped, who made Oda Yoshinobu's reputation in Owari just lustful? It is said that there has long been a rumor among the retainers that "if you want to please Oda Yoshinobu, you only need to send him a beautiful woman." If one can't be done, then send two".

"If that's the case, I'll give you 3,000." Oda Nobunaga said with a strange smile, "But you have to remember, when the time comes, tell me what it's like to be a Nanban woman." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Oda Nobunaga felt a pain in his waist, and hurriedly turned around and hugged Nohime in his arms and smiled, "Anon, I'm not curious~ I'm just curious!" ”

"Believe it or not!" Oda Yoshinobu said unhappily, he didn't say this at all, because he really didn't plan to fund Lilu Argot because she was a big beauty. If Lilu Argot were replaced by Rafael Castello, he would not hesitate to sponsor it. Of course, Lilu Argot is pretty, so he wants to soak her, but that's not the same thing as a business thing.

Yes, Oda Yoshinobu is such a man who is one yard to one yard!

At the same time, Oda Yoshinobu's mansion, Lilu Argot had not yet fallen asleep at this time, she walked to the window, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and her heart was mixed, "Camille...... From today onwards, Lilu will no longer be the Lilu of the past. I'll try to make money, and then let's cut everything off completely......"

Next.

"Lilu, my thoughts are like this, there is no factory in my country that can build ocean-going ships for the time being, and you also know that now that my country is in a civil war, it is impossible for me to give you all the funds." Oda Yoshinobu said lightly while drinking tea.

"My subordinates understand this, but I believe that the lord has already made a plan, right?" Lilu Argot chuckled. Sometimes, you have to sigh that the Age of Discovery is indeed full of talents, and Lilu Argot is only 18 years old, but it is difficult for you to think of her as an 18-year-old girl. Well, in Japan, many 18-year-old men are already veterans of the battlefield.

"Well, I do have an idea." Oda Yoshinobu smiled, "You are a merchant, and although you have been engaged in sea trade in the past, I believe that ordinary transactions should not be difficult for you. So I'll pay for you to build a merchant house on the Tsushima side, and buy you an offshore cargo ship. ”

After a pause, Oda Yoshinobu looked at Lilu Argot, who was still listening carefully to his speech, and continued, "Moreover, I believe you should know that if you want to make money, you must have a deep understanding of the price level in various places. So, during this time, you can get to know the local specialties and learn the language at the same time. ”

"It's not that this lord is ignorant of transactions." Lilu Argot thought to herself, and then nodded, "But my lord, I believe you can't be with me at any time, right?" So I hope you can assign me a translator. ”

"Don't worry, that's a reasonable request, isn't it? And you really need a local to help you get used to it as quickly as possible. Oda nodded.

"Also, you won't be given too much money initially, huh...... 5,000 guan, maybe you don't know how much 5,000 kan is now, but it's okay, take your time~" Oda Yoshinobu said with a chuckle.

"Yes." Lilu Argoth said respectfully, and then the two discussed some details, and she went to Fernand Diaz to discuss.

Yoshinobu Oda, on the other hand, was thinking about the choice of translator. Well, it's not that difficult, and even if Tsushima doesn't have it, there will be a lot of people in Kaimachi who know Nanban. But the point is that doing business through translation is very risky, and Oda Yoshinobu has heard many examples of people who have suffered a lot because of different languages in his previous life.

"In this case, I have to ask someone from my own family to help, but there is no one among my retainers who knows how to trade. Hua Mei may have some talent, but let her learn to trade, it is too big to use it. Oda Yoshinobu thought, and couldn't help but be a little crazy. I found that there were too few people around him.

"It seems that I can only go to my brother." Oda Yoshinobu was helpless, and thought of Oda Nobunaga's classmate again. Well, there is a problem, looking for Nobunaga, Oda Nobunaga, is this going to turn into a rhythm of Doraemon?

However, it is clear that Oda Nobunaga did not like this change, so when Oda Yoshinobu came to Kiyoshu Castle again and made his own request, Oda Nobunaga was furious. "You bastard! Can't you just figure things out on your own?! Trying to find me for everything, I'm the governor! It's your lord! ”

Hawkers, if it were someone else, I'm afraid that Oda Nobunaga would be half dead with such a voice, and then Oda Nobunaga could unceremoniously refuse his proposal. Who is Yoshinobu Oda? Does he care about that? Apparently not!

"Brother! That's what's wrong with you! Oda Yoshinobu said rhetorically, as if it was Oda Nobunaga's fault.

"Am I wrong? Good! You said! I'm going to see what's wrong with me! Oda Nobunaga laughed angrily, sat down and poured himself a glass of wine, and after a sip of dryness, he glared at Oda Yoshinobu. I believe that if Oda Yoshinobu can't say 543, Oda Nobunaga will never let go of this opportunity to teach Oda Yoshinobu a lesson.

"Ahem...... Brother, what do you think I'm doing with the Chamber of Commerce? Not to make money yet? Why make money? And not for the sake of developing armaments? What is the purpose of developing armaments? Isn't it to destroy the enemies of the family?! After Oda Yoshinobu coughed dryly, he began to show his mouth skills.

It's a pity that Oda Nobunaga didn't buy it at all, looked at Oda Yoshinobu with slanted eyes, and said in a strange voice, "Flicker, then flicker~"

Seeing this, Oda Yoshinobu thought for a while and said again, "Do you think, if this chamber of commerce can be built faster, wouldn't it be more certain for the main family to attack Mino?" ......" Oda Yoshinobu kept talking, but unfortunately, Oda Nobunaga didn't bother to pay attention to him at all, he made up his mind to ignore Oda Yoshinobu's request today.

After half a ring, Oda Yoshinobu looked at Oda Nobunaga, who did not enter the oil and salt, and suddenly became unhappy, "Brother, adult...... If you don't agree......" Oda Yoshinobu looked at Oda Nobunaga with a hideous expression.

"What if you don't say yes?" Oda Nobunaga still looks like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water.

"Ji ...... Not! As soon as Oda Yoshinobu opened his mouth, Oda Nobunaga directly covered his mouth. You bastard, can I promise you that you can't do it? Oda Nobunaga said helplessly. Well, he's really, really afraid that Yoshishi was also abducted by this bastard Oda Yoshinobu. But this can't blame Oda Nobunaga for thinking too much, it's really Oda Yoshinobu who has too many criminal records.
