Chapter 75

In the courtyard of the Daimyo Mansion, the Sakura flowers are in full bloom, and the two daimyo are sitting in the gazebo, drinking tea and admiring the Sakura.

Shimotsuki Yasuie sat upright, looking serious as if he was facing the big snake, but he couldn't help laughing when he saw Yamato who was frowning because of the bitter tea.

"Miss Ghost Ji came to visit suddenly, why not?"

"I'm here to give gifts!"

Yamato quickly put down the teacup, happily took out the gift and pushed it in front of Yasuie, saying bluntly: "Father said that now is a good time to visit relatives and friends, so let me pay a visit to you."

"."

Shimotsuki Yasuie was stunned and speechless. This little girl was so straightforward that she almost wrote "I came to buy you for my father" on her face.

After being silent for a while, he pushed the gift back with a cold face, trying to bribe him with treasure, it would be too contemptuous of others.

"Sorry, Miss Guiji, I can't accept these gifts."

"Eh? Don't you want it?"

Yamato's face was full of surprise, she had never thought of this situation, the gift box contained all her favorite things, there should be no one who would not like it.

"You should open it and have a look, you will definitely like it!"

"It's not a matter of liking it or not."

Shimotsuki Yasuie shook his head, Kaido and Orochi tried to bribe them more than once, gold, silver, treasure, beauties, all kinds of means emerged in an endless stream.

But his allegiance is to the Kozuki clan, how could he succumb to the villains who persecute this country for the sake of pleasure!

This gift must never be accepted!

"Master Yasuie."

Sasaki, who was kneeling behind Yamato, suddenly spoke and said sincerely, "His Highness Yamato has no malice in coming here this time."

"Sasaki."

Shimotsuki Yasuie stared at Sasaki. The other party was originally a well-known knight from all over the country. The act of assassinating Kaido was even more exciting, but now he has become the minion of Kaido's daughter, making all samurai shameless.

However, things seem to be going a little differently.

The man in front of him was as sharp as a sharp blade, without any wavering in his eyes. Such a powerful spirit is definitely not something that a stalker can have!

Shimotsuki Yasuie sighed in his heart, feeling that he was a little too nervous, even ordinary people would bring some gifts when they visited relatives and friends, and it was really inappropriate to refuse directly.

"I'm sorry, I'm being rude."

"It doesn't matter."

Yamato didn't think much, and pushed the gift to Yasuie again, urging with anticipation: "Open it and have a look!"

"good."

Shimotsuki Yasuie nodded slightly, stretched out his hand to open the gift box, and refused later because the gift was too expensive, and the other party couldn't pick a thorn.

"This is?"

When the gift box was opened, a familiar fragrance came out.

Shimotsuki Yasuie looked at the things in the gift box, even though he had already prepared himself mentally, he couldn't help being stunned at this moment.

"Takoyaki???"

When all the gift boxes were opened, Shimotsuki Yasuie was completely messed up in the wind.

Takoyaki, glutinous rice dumplings, deep-fried tempura, etc., and even fried noodles are all the most common street foods.

He originally thought that Kaido would send his daughter some gold and silver treasures if he asked his daughter to come, and no matter how bad he was, he would have to prepare some valuables such as tea and fine wine, but he didn't expect these things at all.

Even ordinary people will prepare some meat and fruit when visiting friends as gifts. How can they use street food as gifts!

Miss Guiji, could it be that she is an idiot?

Shimotsuki Yasuie and his vassals were in a daze, they were holding back their words, and they didn't know whether to say it or not, but Shinsengumi's side was extremely calm.

My family's name does things as they please, and they have encountered more outrageous things than this. Before, they took them to stroll around Youkou once, to support the little sister's performance.

Looking at the food on the table, Yamato swallowed: "How about it, do you like it?"

"I like this very much!"

Shimotsuki Yasuie couldn't laugh or cry, seeing Yamato's slobbering face, he smiled helplessly: "Let's eat together!"

"Okay, okay, I'm already hungry!"

Soon, the table full of snacks was eaten by the two of them.

Shimotsuki Yasuie belched contentedly, not knowing whether to cry or laugh, this little girl seemed to have a magical power that could make people open their hearts, he hadn't been so relaxed for a long time.

Kaido is so lucky to have such a lovely daughter!

Eat and drink enough, it's time to talk about business.

Yamato sat up straight, with a very serious expression on his small face: "Uncle Yasuie, I want Bai Wu to plant cotton like Bell Queen, and then we will buy it."

"Growing Cotton"

Shimotsuki Yasuie frowned slightly. He knew better than anyone else the reforms that took place after the bell, and he also knew that planting crops such as cotton could indeed increase the income of the people.

"Is this what your father meant?"

"No, father doesn't care about this."

Yamato curled his lips, his father only provided her with some directions, and she had to decide how to implement it herself, and it was troublesome.

Shimotsuki Yasuie couldn't understand that although the changes in Bell Queen seemed to be led by Ms. Onihime, there were so many materials behind it, and Kaido's support was inseparable.

The question is why Kaido would do this. The other party is obviously a pirate, working hand in hand with the big snake, but his attitude towards the people of Wanokuni has suddenly changed.

Do you really spoil your daughter?

I can't think of any other reason, but it can't be that Kaido has a disturbed conscience and wants to compensate the people of Wanokuni!

"Miss Guiji, I'm afraid not."

Shimotsuki Yasuie sighed: "Bai Wu's situation is different from Bell Queen's. Financial resources are limited. If the common people don't grow food, they will all starve to death. Orochi. Alas!"

The chronic diseases of other villages are mainly caused by the endless persecution of Shogun Orochi. Behind them, there is no Kaido!

"Is it because of the big snake?"

Yamato waved his small hand, full of confidence: "Don't worry, as long as we reach a cooperative relationship, Orochi will never dare to destroy it, or Father will beat him for me!"

"this"

Shimotsuki Yasuie is speechless, having a good father really does whatever he wants!

He explained with a wry smile: "Miss Guiji, the problem is not here."

The big snake may not interfere with the transaction, but whether it is growing grain or cotton, after the people get the money, the big snake will definitely take it away in various names.

"I have a way!"

Yamato counted with his fingers: "Aren't you hungry now? I can lend you the food first, and then wait for the cotton to mature and use it directly to pay off the debt. The money is taken away by the big snake!"

Borrowing grain—planting cotton—collecting cotton to repay the debt—borrowing grain again. Many poor people are in this state after the bell.

Even if the big snake wants to squeeze the people, the people don't have anything extra for him. As for taxes, growing cotton exceeds the income from loans, which is just enough to pay taxes.

"Wow ha ha ha ha."

Yamato put his hands on his hips and laughed triumphantly: "I'm such a genius!"

"."

Shimotsuki Yasuie was dumbfounded, and it took him a long time to ask: "Miss Oniji, why did you do this?"

"because!"

Yamato stood up, pulled out the autumn water and pointed to the sky.

"I'm going to be Wanokuni's general!"
