Chapter 1313 Golden Light Shines Everywhere, Zuwaro's "Buddhism"!

"The chieftain from the northern snowfield! Meeting a good friend is like hearing the beautiful call of a deer in the house! A smile to each other and then we fall asleep peacefully... And today, I saw you, and it was as if I heard the call of the spirit deer, looking forward to a peaceful night!..."

"Haha! The chieftain from the southern coast! Reindeer are the partners of the tribe's migration, the messengers who open the way in the cold winter, and the friends of travelers. She came on the frost and snow, walked through the frozen strait, from the dream of one tribe to the heart of another tribe. And when you hear the call of the deer, it proves that you have heard my voice and are a good friend who can go through the winter together!..."

The big ship was anchored at the seaside, and the warriors of the kingdom were wearing armor, holding longbows, and staring sharply at the opposite side. The warriors of the country set up their spears, and behind them was a row of archers holding longbows, who were also extremely vigilant. In the middle of the two armies, there were two armored leaders walking. They each brought a few nervous personal guards, and communicated in a "friendly and cordial" manner under the communication of the Ezo translator.

As they chatted, Zuwaro and Kakizaki Yoshihiro were somewhat surprised. The two sides were of similar age, had similar cultural levels, had rich experience, and had a love of poetry. It was easy for them to understand each other's communication, and it could even be said that they had a rare rapport. For example, the following conversation...

"Ah! Chief Shanta! What you said is so consistent with Buddhist principles! Yes, our meeting is a dream-like Buddhist fate!..."

"Haha! Yes, it is really the power of the gods! It is the main god of the ocean, thunder and gold who let you and me come here, experience the ocean, thunder and gold, and come from the prophetic dream to the reality of the destined meeting!..."

"Hiss! That's right! All things are like dreams, like fog and lightning!"

"Yes! The Lord God blesses! He is the highest and greatest, swallowing up the smoke mirror, the rain god and the feathered serpent, and becoming the immortal sun!..."

The increasingly "friendly" communication lasted for two quarters of an hour. It was not until the family elder Atsuya Masanobu coughed lightly that Kakizaki Yoshihiro came back to his senses. He glanced at the three large ships on the sea and vaguely saw the captives of his family. Then, he looked serious and talked about the main topic of trade.

"Chief Shanta, I came here with enough sincerity this time! The goods, cattle, horses, poultry, craftsmen and young men behind... are all brought to redeem captives and trade with you for gold specialties!..."

"Oh? The quantity of these things, such as four-legged cattle and horses... does not seem to meet the conditions I proposed?"

"Hey! The strength of our family is limited. We hope to exchange some of them first and reach an agreement with your department bit by bit! The first priority is to redeem the elders of our family first!..."

"Oh! You mean the old white-haired chief! He received very good treatment on my flagship! He can eat half a catty of venison and two taels of deer shanks in one meal. He is so strong that people envy him!... However, to redeem him, the conditions I mentioned before must be exchanged for craftsmen."

"Thank you for your hospitality! These are the craftsmen gathered by our family! Although they do not reach the level of "craftsmen", they are already excellent in the entire Ezo land!..."

At this point, Yoshihiro Kakizaki made a gesture. Kinoshita Ichiro, a trusted party member, brought a dozen or so Japanese craftsmen who looked terrified and nervous. Then, Kinoshita Ichiro introduced the blacksmith in the front while gesturing and using the unfamiliar Ainu language.

"This is Matsushita Tetsuku! He can forge sharp swords and has produced three good swords "yemono"! He is proficient in the steel penetration method of Baiduan and has touched the door of jade steel. In fact, he is the best blacksmith in Matsumae in the entire Japanese land, second only to the main family Otani Kento!"

Although Zuwaro studied Ainu day and night and practiced three times harder, he still couldn't understand the meaning of these Japanese words. He didn't know much about blacksmithing skills and couldn't judge the depth of the other party's level at all. He just kept a confident smile and said to Yoshihiro Kakizaki.

"Chief Japanese, according to our agreement, please let him show his blacksmithing skills!"

Hearing this, Yoshihiro Kakizaki ordered something. The lean and honest Matsushita Tetsuji immediately took out several strange tools and several pre-forged iron wires from the bamboo basket behind him.

"The master's strange order, show the blacksmith's skills, prepare as instructed before!..."

Matsushita Tetsuji thought about it seriously, and followed the young master's previous instructions, using the tools in his hand to continuously bend the shape of the iron bars to make two complex iron rings. Then, he said something to the carpenter next to him. The other party took out the prepared wood saw and board, processed the octagonal wood block very skillfully, and made the mortise and tenon joints, and made a wooden frame based on the iron ring.

"Lord God! What is this?... Although I don't know what they are doing, they look very skilled and powerful!..."

In this way, the two Japanese craftsmen, under Zuwaro's unblinking attention, gradually made a very strange, vertical iron and wooden tool like a tube. Then, the third craftsman also joined in. He used the thin and long bamboo strips prepared in advance in his hand to quickly weave a fine net and put it on the periphery of the iron and wooden tool. Finally, the fourth craftsman uses a layer of gauze-like Japanese paper to wrap the entire outer surface of the vessel...

The four craftsmen were obviously well prepared, having prepared materials in advance, and their skills were astonishingly proficient. After about an hour or two, the long octagonal tube was completely formed. It wasn't until a bright candle flame was lit in the iron-wood frame inside the long tube, and then reflected through the gauze-like bamboo strip paper net, that little radiating lights... Zuvalo's eyes widened in surprise, incredible. asked.

"Lord God! What is this? What kind of instrument is this? Is it used for lighting?..."

Yoshihiro Oyizaki secretly paid attention to Zuvalo's expression. When he saw the surprised look on the other person's face, which he had never seen before, he became even more sure of his judgment. This powerful tribe that appeared out of nowhere and possesses firearms and gold really has nothing to do with the Tang people of the Ming Dynasty or the Koreans of the Joseon Dynasty! Therefore, the identity of the other party is clearly revealed...

After making a clearer judgment, Yoshihiro Uyizaki smiled and waved to the four craftsmen. The four of them immediately felt as if they had been granted amnesty and left from the Shantao chief who looked very barbaric. Then, Uyizaki Yoshihiro held the luminous instrument made by the craftsmen and handed it to Zuvarro's hand with a smile.

"Dear Chief Shanta, this is the Buddha's octagonal lantern! It is a precious carrier of our relationship with Buddha!..."

"As for the four craftsmen just now, in addition to the senior blacksmith Matsushita Tesuke, there are also the senior carpenter Kisaku Yoshiro, the senior bamboo stripper Ichiro Takeuchi, and the senior papermaker Su Shiro Eiichi. I don't know, these four senior craftsmen , are you satisfied?…”

It must be said that Kazuto is very good at this kind of clever marketing. Through a combination of uncomplicated craftsmanship, he immediately raised the level of the craftsmen. And through an octagonal lantern, Uyizaki Yoshihiro not only tested the origins of Zuvaro, but also quietly added the bamboo stripper maker and papermaker who were not originally on the list.

"Lord God! What an exquisite lighting device! A lantern? A cage filled with lights? What a vivid metaphor!..."

At this moment, Zuvalo lowered his head and stared at the exquisitely glowing octagonal lantern in his hand, his eyes full of admiration. This is a craft that has never been seen in the Kingdom of the Lake, or even in the entire Mexican Union. This kind of octagonal "lantern" looks beautiful, much more exquisite than the pine torches or pottery candles for lighting...

After a while, Zuvalo came back to his senses. He pondered for a moment, feeling a little unsure about the skill level of these craftsmen. But no matter what, he would first speak in a low tone to test the other person's tone of voice. Thinking of this, Zuvalo glanced at the four anxious craftsmen and smiled confidently.

"Chief Kazuto! Although the skills of these craftsmen are good and the utensils they make are beautiful...but their level is far from the level of senior craftsmen! What you brought out of these craftsmen is really far from my original requirements. A lot…”

"Well...it's true, they are not yet senior craftsmen. Sorry, there are so few craftsmen in Ezo, it's because I don't have enough experience..."

Yoshihiro Oyizaki narrowed his eyes and observed Zuvalo's confident expression. After a moment, he suddenly smiled, waved his hand, and gave instructions to his confidant Kinichiro in proficient Ainu language.

"Ichiro, Chief Shantao doesn't like these craftsmen. Take them back now!..."

"Wait a minute!...Our tribe wants all these ordinary craftsmen!"

Zuvarro understood what Uyizaki Yoshihiro said and knew that it was meant for him. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. For the first time, he felt the image that Lu Xiaohu had described when he reported back before.

"Kazuto's chief is indeed a barking fox in the snow! It's just that the cunning fox encountered a jaguar in the jungle..."

Thinking of this, Zuvalo gave Yoshihiro Uyizaki a meaningful look. The other party bowed slightly and responded with a friendly and sincere smile. Then, his smile froze instantly, and his breathing even became a little rapid.

"Ah this! This is it? Chief Shantao, oh no, my friend of Buddha! What is this? All of this?..."

"Haha! That's right! Chief Kazuto, the first fruit that falls from the tree is worthy of a monkey's shaking!... I said that a senior craftsman has a golden talisman. And the first batch of craftsmen you took out, Although it does not reach the level of a senior craftsman, it is still worthy of my heavy investment so that I can look forward to getting better craftsmen from you in the future..."

Zuvaro smiled like a goose laying golden eggs. He took out four golden talismans weighing one kilogram from his arms.

Then, under the shocked gaze of Mr. Houtani, in the coveting of Kinichiro, in the dazzling fascination of Yoshihiro Oyizaki, in the dull eyes of a group of Kazuto craftsmen, a hundred young men, hundreds of samurai farmers... He directly put the four strung amulets of the main god together on the neck of Yoshihiro Uyizaki, pressing the opponent so hard that he was forced to hold the golden amulet and could not lift his head at all.

"Haha! Chief Heren, my good friend of Lu Ming! These four gold talismans weighing one kilogram are my reward for you, in exchange for your four craftsmen, and in return for your careful arrangement as a friend!..."

"Ahaha! My friend, I am looking forward to more, more! I have more to give you in return!..."

Zuvalo's heroic laughter echoed in the wilderness on the seaside. At this moment, in the eyes of all Kazuto, he was like a Buddha possessed by light, shining with golden light.
