Respectful and fresh greeting to Zakekawa, Machi-Bugyo of fine Kiyosu,
I am well, and have done some nice fishing until recently when my ubune collapsed on me and left to study at your fine University.
In order to do business unlike the sister city of Sakai, I will have to travel two days and establish a house here. This is some large consequence and the question is of course safe transport. It will be 500 kobans to license a residence here and to make it worth while I may have to charge a tiny bit more than locally making it. To that end usually I offer sake for 0.60 kobans a bowl, but here would be 0.65 kobans a bowl. If I could get a contract for 10,000 bowls spread over time that would be most excellent. I hope for maybe over the span of 10 months bringing in a minimum of 1000 bowls at a time each month would be workable.
This would be easier if I had 1 or 2 extra people with me to help carry this much steadily. Or I could make 2 trips a month, and perhaps trade with your Doctor for selling cheap herbs I pick on the way.
Let me know if this can work for you on a long term basis. I know it is not necessary for one to have a residence in your Capital, but it would be much easier and it is nice to have.
Respects,
Yamanishi, a humble hardworking sake maker
