Chapter 1423: North Korea's Deposit and Ming Dynasty's Book!

The dusk gradually dyed, and the sunset glow floated on the water and sky. The river flowed into the Golden Sea, dividing the waves of the north and south. And eight large ships were anchored at the estuary, quietly waiting for transactions on the shore.

Morino Kiyoshi, dressed in gorgeous clothes and holding a folding fan, stood by the river. He looked solemn, his fingers pinched a piece of parchment, his eyes fixed on the "pictures and texts" on the paper, reading carefully.

"The gods have given a prophecy, and we urgently need a doctor who can cure diseases? Especially a great doctor who can prevent smallpox?... Buddha! What is smallpox? What is smallpox?..."

"What? The so-called smallpox is a plague that spreads widely and causes death, as shown in the picture... Oh! It turns out to be the terrible herpes brought down by the herpes god in Shinto! What did you say? This terrible herpes can be prevented by vaccination?!..."

Mori No Kiyoshi was shocked. He had never heard of the prophecy written on the paper and it was unbelievable. He frowned, opened and closed his folding fan, paced back and forth for a few steps, and then said to Zuvaro who was expecting it.

"Respected Golden Chieftain...your ancestors traveled thousands of miles, conquered countless territories and cities, and even ruled the Central Plains, so they inherited many secret methods!..."

"However, the country is isolated overseas, and medicine is particularly closed. These secret methods are not known, and it is impossible to inherit them... More than 700 years ago, the 'Master of the Transmission of the Lamp' Master Jianzhen made five voyages to the East, and brought the 'Buddha's Truth' and 'Chinese Medicine' to the land of He. And 500 years ago, the 'Ancestor of Medicine' Tanba Yasuyori summarized the medical heritage of the Han Dynasty and compiled the "Medical Heart Prescription", and the lineage of doctors was officially formed..."

"Since the Yuan invaders... cough!... Since the transition from the Mongols to the Yuan Dynasty, the exchanges between the land of He and the Han Dynasty have been To reduce interruptions. There has never been any new "works" handed down in "Chinese medicine"... and the Heian period has also been more than two hundred years, and there has never been a horrific "herpes" epidemic like the Heian period! ..."

"Buddha witness! Next time I trade, I can carefully search for some "Chinese medicine books" for you, such as "Huangdi Neijing", "Shanghan Lun", "Tang Materia Medica", "Yi Xin Fang"... As for doctors who can treat "herpes" or "vaccinate", I have never seen them! At most, I can only try my best to find two ordinary doctors who have cured "herpes" and bring them to you..."

Speaking of this, Morino Kiyoshi paused, with a slight smile on his face. He spoke meaningfully.

"Respected Golden Chief! When it comes to the great achievements of medicine, the Ming Dynasty is naturally the first choice! However, the Ming Dynasty is far away and has closed its sea borders, making it extremely difficult to communicate... and the medicine of North Korea has always been inherited from the Ming Dynasty. The level of their doctors must be much higher than that of the Hedi!..."

"Moreover, people like great doctors usually have outstanding reputations and many connections... I really can't rashly "invite" them. But if I "invite" a Korean doctor, it would be much more convenient!..."

"So, what do you think of the matter of opening up the Korean "trade route" that I just mentioned to you?... In the meantime, I need to spend a lot of effort and money to connect various The Japanese samurai families, from Ezo to Kyushu... The deposit of thirty gold tokens I proposed is indeed not cheap... But with the strength of your Golden Clan, it must be just a drop in the bucket, easy to get! ..."

"The Lord God is witnessing! Sen, with only thirty gold tokens, can you open up the trade route of the Korean Great Tribal Alliance and bring back the master craftsman and doctor I want? ... If you lie to me, there will be no possibility of any transaction after that! Not only that, I will also lead troops to the south to retaliate against the Japanese land in the south!"

Speaking of this, Zuwaro's eyes were burning, and he stared at Morino Kiyoshi's eyes closely, and his hand also pressed on the copper axe at his waist. The big businessman in Kyoto had a calm face, his eyes were full of sincerity, and he bowed a full 90 degrees.

"Don't lie in front of the Buddha! Ancestor, these thirty pieces of gold are the cost of opening up the trade route... As long as the trade route is opened, I will definitely bring back Korean craftsmen and doctors! Trading with you has really benefited me a lot, and I can't give it up..."

"Of course, the Korean trade route takes time. The round-trip route takes one or two months, not to mention organizing 'manpower' to go to Korea... Next time I trade, I will bring you the latest news! And I will bring all the goods you specify, and then sell them to you at a 'discount' to offset the deposit you paid!..."

"May the Lord bless you! Then I will believe you this time!... Sen, you are a man who can do great things. I believe in your ability. Don't let me down!... Ha! I'll give you a deposit!..."

Zuwaro stared for a long time, then laughed loudly and looked at the warrior captain Tamicao.

"Tami grass, how much gold do we have on our ship?"

"Captain, we only brought 500 kilograms of gold this time... The previous transaction cost about 100 kilograms, and there are 400 left..."

"Okay! Then give him another 50 gold talismans!..."

"Yes!..."

Hearing this, Tami grass did not hesitate. Gold is really just a number for the kingdom. If using gold to smash can exchange for the craftsmen and doctors in the "divine prophecy", then let alone 50 kilograms, 500 kilograms will be no problem!

In a short while, a full 50 gold talismans were packed in a sturdy wooden box and smashed heavily in front of Morino Kiyoshi, causing this well-informed Kyoto merchant to tremble again.

"Mori! Count them! Check the quality! I'll give you fifty gold talismans, and I must open up the trade route to Korea! ... By the way, I also want all the books you mentioned just now! Not only medicine, but also the knowledge of various craftsmen! Especially those historical books on the boards passed down by the great tribal alliances... I want them all!..."

"Ah? Ah this! A deposit of fifty gold talismans?! Buddha! Samatha, Samatha! Concentration, concentration! ... No, no need to check, I trust you! ... You still need books? I have a few on the ship... Next time I come, I will bring you all the books I can find in Kyoto! ..."

Mori No Kiyoshi chanted the Buddha's name, trying his best to suppress his inner excitement and greed. He quickly glanced at the "gold box" and tried the weight and volume of the box of gold talismans with trembling hands, and then he shouted solemnly to Matsushita Xiangjiro.

"Xiang Jilang! You take two monk soldiers and deliver this box of gold talismans to the cabin immediately, and leave someone to guard it!... This amount does not need to be recorded in the account. It is the cost of opening up the trade route. There is no need to share profits with the Kakizaki family..."

"Then, bring all the Tang Dynasty books that I read to kill time on the ship! All of them, bring them all!..."

"All Tang Dynasty books? Yes!..."

Matsushita Xiang Jilang took two monk soldiers and carried the heavy "gold box" and left in a hurry. After two quarters of an hour, he returned panting with more than a dozen books in his hands. After Morino Kiyoshi took them, he handed them to Zuvaro and explained with a smile.

"Zu! This book, Bei Meng Suo Yan, was written by Sun Guangxian of the Song Dynasty. It records the complicated stories of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms of the Tang Dynasty. It is full of wisdom and is quite interesting!..."

"This book is Da Song Xuanhe Yi Shi, which is also a story of the Song and Yuan Dynasty. The heroic spirits of the thirty-six Tiangang followed the god Hu Yanbao and Song Jiang from birth to death, which is really touching!..."

"And this one, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, is a popular novel popular in Ming Dynasty. It has been widely circulated in Kyoto for many years! Many heroes of the Three Kingdoms, from the mighty Yellow River to the rolling Yangtze River, their extraordinary heroism, and the world-shaking ghost martial arts and divine strategies, all make people infinitely fascinated!..."

"As for this last book, cut... uh! Xiang Erlang! Why did you bring this one that I kept at the bottom of the box?..."

Seeing the cover of the last book, Morino Kiyoshi's face turned pale in an instant, and he was about to take the book back. But Zuwaro was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and had already taken this thin booklet in his hand. He glared at Morino Kiyoshi, then frowned slightly, looking at the small book in his hand in confusion, reading the four big characters on the cover from top to bottom.

"Mori, what book is this? Jian... Deng... Xin... Hua?..."

"Well, this book is a banned book in Ming Dynasty, but Koreans like it very much. They copied it from Ming Dynasty and introduced it to Japan... The content inside... Well! It's mostly about love between men and women, and the harmony between humans and ghosts... May Buddha have mercy on me! I read this book with great compassion and have no distracting thoughts!..."

Morino Kiyoshi said a few words, and then he was speechless, showing shame rarely. He covered his face with his hands, quickly pointed to the fourth ship, and whispered.

"Ancestor, you can take these Tang books back and read them slowly!... It's getting dark, so let's quickly trade the last two ships of military supplies! Especially rice, I have been hoarding it for a month, and brought a ship of 400 stones, enough for 300 warriors to eat for a year!..."

I was a little busy yesterday, sorry.
