A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

Although the process of the matter was tortuous, the result was quite satisfactory.

Koheita successfully found a stove named Kinbei. After some exchanges, since someone was willing to give materials to waste (test), this Kinbei was very happy to practice his skills (as for the sanding method, I will not copy it. (After all, we are not novel chapter writers who rely on water to make a living).

As for making the mother carving, it's simple. Use one cent of gold to ask a goldsmith to carve a piece of money slightly larger than the normal Yongle money. As for the four characters Yongle Tongbao, don’t we have Uncle Gangliang who has a relatively high level of Chinese culture? Let’s not mention Xiao Pingtai’s calligraphy works like “dog crawling”.

This thing was very fast, and within a few days fifty golden eagle Yongle coins were delivered to Xiao Pingtai. (There is no need to question where the gold came from. Uncle Tsunaliang is a mid-level and high-level samurai with more than 150 years of experience. How can he live without this little gold!)

Then Xiaopingtai and uncle Tsunaliang carried a lot of charcoal (which was obtained for free from the village) to the furnace smelting in Jinshan. After all, it would not be justified if all the fuel charcoal came from the public sector.

Koheita briefly explained the concept that copper and gold have similar melting points, and asked Kinbei to do it in his own way. Except for adding Japanese lead (zinc), I paid special attention to it. Adding lead is not a problem at all. Ash-blowing smelting originally requires a large amount of lead, and Kinbei is very skilled in using it. (But it’s quite pitiful to think that most of these craftsmen eventually died of chronic lead poisoning)

Sure enough, smelting alloys is a very simple matter for an expert to do. Pour the copper alloy solution into the prepared mold, and the rest is waiting.

The copper liquid waiting to be cast was cold, and Xiaoping's uncle and nephew couldn't wait to pick up the tree-shaped copper coin embryo. It was bright and shining, shining golden yellow under the fire (idealize it).

The coins were broken off from the money mold one by one. Twenty frames totaling a thousand coins were all of very good quality. After being carefully polished on the iron rod, the imitation Yongle coins, which had always been flawless, were now complete. Presented in front of the uncle and nephew.

For more than ten days until the New Year, Koheita and Kinbei stayed at the furnace and never went home, while Tsunayoshi also ran to Jinshan whenever he had free time. It made Tsuna Liang's three wives wonder if the cheap uncle and nephew were having an affair, but thinking about Xiaoheita's unflattering dignity, the matter was over.

By the New Year, the two men had brought back more than 74 copper coins from Jinshan (think of the spectacular situation of more than 70,000 coins). This time, the twists and turns of coin minting were finally concluded.

In addition to paying two guanwen to Jin Bingwei, he also spent some miscellaneous items to purchase charcoal and some ironware. The two people spent less than 14 guan on materials plus 4 guan on labor and processing fees, and could get three times the profit (think of the low copper price in Japan), and all the previous anxiety and unhappiness disappeared.

In addition to the salary of 15 guan issued in the New Year, Xiaopingtai suddenly became a small rich man with 50 guan. According to the market price, he could buy a more noble godfather.

Of course, there was no need to do this. Xiao Pingtai just went to order a Wufu made of high-quality Koshu silk. At this time, the advantages of being 1.4 meters tall came to light. It didn’t take much effort. I didn’t know whether I should be happy or not.

Then he also wanted to get a sexy Nanman body, preferably a Milanese-style one with a visor. It's not that Xiaoping is so afraid of death. After all, on the battlefield, if you can't see anything, the safety factor will be higher if you can wrap yourself tightly.

But the craftsmen in Minami Shinshu don't have this skill. In fact, it would be okay to give him an iron plate and let them knock it according to Xiaoheita's own figure, but it will definitely not be as good as steel. Come to think of it, it's better to buy the genuine Nanban carcass. I also asked the big merchants in the town if anyone had brought them from Kyushu or Sakai for sale (don’t think it’s expensive, Furuta Oribe, who has a salary of 200 koku, has a Nanbaru body), but the result was no. So I had to give up and wait for the opportunity to find another one.

After Xiaoheita had saved enough money to do a bigger job next time, he found Tsunaliang and had a long talk with him. Even if the two of them were working on a small scale, they would still make nearly 600 kuen in profit a year. This level is completely equivalent to the salary of the pen-headed Hosokawa Harugong. It is enough to support and mobilize more than 30 horse-riding samurai ( Takeda Shingen used Shinano Ueno's 5,000 kan to install Kobata Norijue's Akashi (more than 400).

The two of them couldn't hold on to this money, so they might as well use it as a stepping stone to get ahead, and give Yamauchi Yoshiharu the advantage of his girl who had already secured a position in Yamauchi Fuchu Castle and was known as the Pine Hall. Not only can she be favored in Yamauchi Yoshiharu's harem, but it is also unknown whether her uncle and nephew can take the next step.

Since ancient times, true love cannot be retained, only money and silk can move people's hearts. Everyone knows this truth, and Tsunaliang decided to do so after just thinking about it, not to mention that if they stayed close to Yamauchi Yoshiharu's lap, the two of them might gain even more.

So he promised to go to the city to meet his daughter the next day and talk to her about the matter.

There are more than 4,000 recommended votes steadily, I'm happy. Thank you very much, brothers.
