Chapter 783 The Shinsengumi has guns! M1861 rifle and Parrott rifled cannon! 5000(1/3)

Those who have money provide money, those who have grain provide grain, and those who have animal power provide animal power.

These are just the merchants who openly expressed their support for Qingdeng.

There are also many businesses that secretly provide obscure assistance to Qingdeng.

These famous businessmen all donated generously to the same person... Such a scene was rare and amazing!

Of course, whether they are the giant businessmen in Osaka or other merchants in other places, they are not directly subordinate to Calabash House after all, and there is no relationship between "command" and "commanded" between them.

The two parties are just partners with "deep friendship".

Calabash House is indeed kind to them, but if they abuse this kindness, it will only be counterproductive.

No matter how much face Kinoshita Rin has, she can't force them to destroy their families to help out the trouble, and support Qingteng by selling everything they have.

Therefore, they can only help Qingdeng as much as possible under the premise of "not affecting their own business conditions".

After all, such assistance will not last long and last.

If all these businesses are like Gourdiya and support Aotobu without any limit... then Aotobu will probably become the most powerful and powerful daimyo in Japan!

With this terrifying material advantage, not only the whole of Japan, but also the entire Gyeonggi Province can be conquered!

All in all, the main supporter of Qinjin Fan is still Huluwu itself.

In addition to "investment", Huluwu also operates food, wine and other businesses.

According to the boss of Kiryu, the early Calabash House made a living by selling grain.

Japan under the Edo shogunate implemented the rice standard.

Rice standard - that is, a currency system with rice as the standard currency. The currency value of each unit is equivalent to a certain weight of rice.

In other words, selling rice in the Edo period is equivalent to selling gold in modern times!

One can imagine the transcendence of his status.

It may not be the most profitable profession, but it is definitely the most stable, with the most status and energy!

Calabash House itself has accumulated considerable wealth by relying solely on the business of "selling grain".

Following Kinoshita Rin's order, the entire gourd house was like a precision machine suddenly started, running quickly and orderly!





Osaka——

The headquarters of Huluya is located in southern Osaka near the harbor.

The air is filled with the salty smell of sea water.

The calls of seabirds fade in and out.

The bland architectural style and unpretentious decoration style are very consistent with the low-key style of Calabash House.

Black roof tiles, diamond-patterned walls... At first glance, it looks like an ordinary landlord's compound.

Today, Kinoshita Rin held a high-level meeting.

In the tea room at the deepest part of the mansion, the core cadres of Calabash House gathered together.

Kinoshita Rin, who was sitting on the main seat, was still wearing the same black dress with gold trim and elegant fur sleeves.

Mai Kinoshita, dressed in red, sat beside her.

As for Qingdeng, he sat side by side with her.

Just by looking at the seating arrangement, one can see how much Kinoshita Rin values ​​her granddaughter and grandson-in-law.

Boss Kiryu, Shichirobe Asai, Katsuroku Shimada, Yoshiki Mogami...the core cadres of Calabash House sat below them in order according to their status.

"As an old woman, I don't want to talk too much."

Kinoshita Rin went straight to the point.

The powerful and steady voice dominated the entire tea room, reaching the ears of everyone present clearly.

"'In order to completely annihilate the Fa Zun Party, we will provide unlimited support to Qinjin Fan' - this is not a vague joke, but a strategy that is about to be implemented!"

"It's going to be very busy next time, I'd like to thank you all."

"First of all, we need to open the granary and provide Qinjin Fan with sufficient food and grass! To ensure the stability of their country!"



Osaka, a warehouse area near the port——

"Open all the granaries! Quick! Move quickly! Don't wait too long!"

The transportation team, composed of strong men and pack horses, rushed towards the checkerboard-like warehouse group.

The heavy iron chains and strong door locks were removed.

Accompanied by the crisp sound of "ka ka ka", the heavy doors were slowly pushed open, revealing the scene inside the warehouse - mountains of rice warriors.

The so-called "rice barrel" is a unique Japanese container for transporting and storing rice. It is actually a wooden barrel covered with a layer of straw straw.

Japan's maritime monsoon climate brings difficulties to rice storage. Rice is prone to moisture and mildew. Covering the barrel with straw enhances the airtightness. At the same time, the straw absorbs water well, ensuring the dryness of the rice in the barrel and prolonging storage.

time.

Therefore, the convenient and easy-to-use rice container has become the most popular rice storage container in Japan.

"Don't be stunned! Load all this food into the car quickly!"

The strong men rushed forward and launched an attack on the mountainous "Mishan" in front of them.

These rice warriors were loaded onto the carriage one by one.

As soon as the carriage was filled, they set off immediately, heading north directly to Qinjin Fan.



"Qinjin Fan urgently needs massive funds to promote various projects. Therefore, after opening the rice warehouse, we have to open the treasury!"

Calabash House Headquarters, Accounting Room——

Ta,ta,ta,ta,ta,ta,ta,ta,ta...

Wow, Wow, Wow, Wow, Wow, Wow...

The sounds of tapping the abacus and flipping the account books... they formed an overwhelming sound barrier, adding a tense and urgent atmosphere to the accounting room.

Looking around, every accountant on the scene is immersed in front of the case and working meticulously and seriously.

"I've already done the statistics here!"

"You made a mistake here! Calculate again!"

"The balance of vault B is 89,342 taels of gold! It can't be wrong. I have confirmed it many times!"

"Okay! Empty vault B! Not even a single copper coin will be left!"

The huge task pressure leaves these accountants with no time to breathe.

Many people have injured their fingers and tendon sheaths by fiddling with abacus for a long time. They can only wear plasters and continue to work hard.

At the same time, countless people were coming in and out of various vaults.

They carried heavy lacquer boxes in their arms and hurried back and forth.

While transporting these lacquer boxes, someone walked too fast and stepped on the hem of the hakama and fell. The wooden box in his arms drew a standard parabola in mid-air and flew a long distance.

There was a crash. The contents of the lacquer box poured out.

In an instant, the golden luster illuminated the surrounding environment, and the smell of metal wafted in the air.

It’s a big award!

The things poured out from the box are golden gold!

[Note: Large gold award: 1 small gold award = 1 tael of gold. 1 large award gold = 10 taels of gold. ]

Rough calculation, there are at least 100 pieces!

"Hey! Be careful!"

"Yes, sorry!"

"You all pay my attention! Don't think about what you shouldn't have! If I find out that you have stolen money, what awaits you will be unparalleled regret! You will deeply understand what it means to regret.

'!"



"Whether it is cultivating fields or building bastions, a large amount of animal power is required for support. Therefore, in addition to money and food, we must provide animal power as much as possible!"

Koshu, a certain racecourse——

The horses neighed one after another.

“Bah! Bah! Bah!”
