Not to mention that Asai Nagamasaki led his troops to launch a raid on the Hexago Army. It is said that Yukisaburo had returned to Hitsu Castle with a large amount of property.

"Yosaburo is back."

As soon as he walked into the city gate, all the retainers and family members in the family got the news and ran out. Not only had they moved into the city, but Yukisaburo had moved the villagers of Ninja Village first after recruiting Tian Shigekashi, so the family had already learned about his trip to Koga from the villagers, but this did not mean that they knew why Yukisaburo did not come back with them.

But now they saw more than 30 ninjas following behind them, carrying boxes and carrying bags, and their bodies were also bulging, which made them feel very curious.

"Master, what are these?" Nakamura Ichiyasu saw that his lord had returned and asked first.

"Sun Pingci, you are here just in time. Put the money in the warehouse at a quick moment."

After hearing this, Ichiko Nakamura and the people present were stunned. Money? How much money does it have to be?

For them, dozens or hundreds of guan are already astronomical numbers. Now it seems that the boxes on these ninjas will have at least three or four thousand guan. This... Where did Yukisaburo get so much money? Could it be that he snatched the Guanyin Temple Castle?

The only person present who could remain calm was the only one in Nakamura's Ichi family. After all, as the government affairs of Haijin City, he often saw thousands of guan and was handled by him, but even this was enough to surprise him.

"Okay, this is not a place to talk. I'll go to see my father first." After that, Yukisaburo left them and walked towards the Tianshou Pavilion.

But before he could take two steps, he heard his brother Takagawa Somamasa said, "My father did not live in the Tianshou Pavilion, but lived in the Samurai Mansion. If you want to go, please come with me."

Although Yukisaburo was a little surprised when he heard this, he didn't say much. After all, in his opinion, he had won the city by himself, and his father might be embarrassed to live there for a moment.

At this time, Tamakawa Yoshisong was practicing martial arts in the not-so-spacious yard of the samurai mansion. When he saw his two sons walking in, he put down the sword in his hand, and then wiped the sweat from his head with a towel on the shelf.

"My father, my child has led dozens of ninjas to launch an attack on Guanyin Temple Castle yesterday and brought back thousands of stagnant funds. So I asked my father to hold a meeting immediately to discuss the development of our family and resist the attack of the Hexao family." Seeing that his father was so slow, Yukisawa couldn't help but feel anxious. He was carrying a lot of money and property, so he did not go very quickly. When he was heading towards Haizin Castle, he had already seen that the subordinate forces of the Hexao family had begun to flee to their respective territories. What does this mean? It means that the Hexao army has been defeated, and it won't take long for Hexao Yixian to get news of the loss of Haizin Castle. He didn't believe that the other party would not send military forces to come. Although the army might be difficult to mobilize for a while, even sending a small amount of military forces is enough to make our family worried, so Yukisawa must make the Tamakawa family prepare immediately.

"You two follow me." After saying that, Tamakawa Yoshisect ignored Yukisaburo's suggestion, but after saying it lightly, he walked towards the main house of the mansion.

"Sir, please..."

Yukisawaro had to say it, but was pulled by his brother next to him for a while. He only heard Zong Zheng say: "Zongqing, Xianxian goes into the house and talks, my father has something to explain."

Zong Qing was stunned after hearing this. His brother always called him Yukisanro. Why did he suddenly call him his name and no longer call him the general name?

And what he meant was obviously knowing what he meant. Did he know something big at home just these few days after he was not here?

Seeing that Somamasa had already followed his father and walked into Yashiki, Sochi Tatsukawa had no choice but to follow him.

After the three of them sat down, Zong Qing looked at his father and found that his father, who had always been very majestic, looked a little lonely at this time, and his brother was exactly the opposite of him. He no longer had a stern face like before, but seemed very relaxed.

What are the father and son doing? It shouldn't be a good thing to see his father's expression, but why did the brother show this relaxed expression?

Just when Zongqing felt that he was not clear about it, he heard Yoshizo Takawa Yoshizo say, "The most proud thing in my life is that you two sons, Shintaro, are skilled in martial arts and are cautious in adhering to the spirit of Bushido. And Yukisawa Yoshizo, you..." Yoshizo Takawa Yoshizo couldn't help but hesitate for a while before continuing, "Yuesawa Yoshizo, although you are not good at martial arts, you have extraordinary talent and courage. You only use two ninjas to capture Hitsu Castle, and use your own strength to turn the situation around the battle. In my opinion, Yukihiko Yamamoto, who is famous in Taiyuan Xuezhai, is just like this."

"I originally thought that if my family wanted to survive in this troubled era, then I could achieve this goal by just adhering to the spirit of Bushido, so I always regarded Shintaro as the heir to the family business."

Speaking of this, he first glanced at Zongmasa, then looked at Zongqing and said, "But if this is the case, how can our family develop? It has been 152 years since the shogunate was renovated. After several generations of efforts, the family has barely obtained 500 stones of land. Fortunately, Saburo only took such a short time to allow the family to own a city and unimaginable funds. It has never been seen in more than a hundred years. The time when our family was silent in this chaotic world was too long, and the glory of my Tamakawa family has long been forgotten by the world. Yukisaburo's talent has allowed me to see the hope of restoring this glory as quickly as possible."

Speaking of this, I heard Tamakawa Yoshizo ask solemnly: "Yukisaburo, if I pass on the position of the governor of my family to you, how do you plan to make my family stand in troubled times?"

This is not because he wants to test Zong Qing, but now that he has done nothing to understand what he has done, the Yukawa Yisect has no idea where the family should go in the future? Since he has seized Haijin City, he has completely lost his direction, so he no longer wants to continue to occupy the position of the family governor and affect the future development of the family.

As for Zong Qing, he did not act pretentiously, because he knew that both his father and his elder brother were too honest and were not suitable for surviving in this troubled times. Only by his own hands can the Tamakawa family survive in the cracks and develop between the Hexagon and the Asami family.

"When I go back to my father, I thought that if my family wants to be in troubled times, then I can only survive with the world by constantly being strong and so powerful that the enemy is afraid of. If I want to achieve this goal, then the first step is to take Haijin Castle as the starting point and take advantage of the opportunity of the Hexake family and the Asai family's disagreement to continue to expand to the surrounding area. Today, the Hexake family is just a scabies in the eyes of the Hexake family. After this victory, Asai was his major concern, so he would not use the army to attack the Hexake family at all. It is not that it cannot be, but that there is no need. In addition, once he really does this, will the Asai family give up the opportunity to take advantage of the situation? The child thought that Asai Nagamasa would never give up.

As long as the two of them focus on the competition between Aichi County and Inugai County, this will give our family the opportunity to constantly erode the surrounding forces. Once we have Takashima County, our family also has more than 80,000 stones. As long as we join forces with Asai, even if we cannot destroy the Hexagon, we will have the strength to compete with it."

"Zongqing, even though he said that, even if the Hexao family did not send out a large army, as long as it sent thousands of troops, the family still could not resist it." After hearing this, Yukawa Somasa was not very excited, because the biggest problem that the Yukawa family had to face now was that there were no one, to be precise, there were not enough soldiers.

And this question about Takagawa Sonmasa was actually what Takagawa Yoshinosen wanted to ask.

"Brother, I have asked the Ichiko Nakamura to spread news around the area to attract civilians to settle near Haijin Castle, and asked him to tell the civilians who are willing to come that as long as they come to settle, then tax exemption will be given this year, and 10 taxes will be implemented starting next year. Once such a government order is implemented, I guess it will not take long to attract many civilians to settle.

In addition to this, things to attract refugees must also start, so if they go well, they can catch up with this year's autumn harvest."
