Side: elders of mountain villages
It has been almost a year since we came here to the mountain village? It is in the mountains in the north of Ozhang, surrounded by mountains.
I don't make rice. We live by plowing fields and using mountain trees.
I originally grew up in the mountains of Koga. I'm used to living in the mountains. I heard the lord made a village in the mountains and volunteered to make a new attempt.
I can't help you with sneaking up on me anymore. If you ask me to die, I will gladly go to the dead for my children and grandchildren. My gratitude to His Holiness, who has given me the life of a human being without starvation, is never light. If I can help you with your old short life, I'm prepared to give you as much as I can.
In winter, mountain trees were felled and mountains were obtained. My lord said it was logging, but he thinks it's easy for mountain trees to grow.
In addition, we used the cold weather in winter to make new products such as frozen tofu and cold weather.
He created a fine coal kiln as if even baked goods were baked, and began producing charcoal as well. I hear that some other places are made from wild grills, but they like this method.
And then I started making coal conglomerates out of useless coal powder and selling them. During the charcoal baking process, a selling product called wood vinegar liquid was also made. You think you can get rid of insects when you sprinkle everything in the fields?
From spring to this autumn, I made fields and planted potatoes and vegetables. In addition to bamboo and mulberry trees, persimmons and grape trees were planted.
Mountain vegetables and natural potatoes are picked in the mountains, and the mountain vegetables are also salted and preserved and sold to Qingzhou. Old men like me also began to make chopsticks, dishes, etc. with wood carvings.
Yes, I was ordered to teach those who were able to read and write letters, so not only young people and children, but also women and the elderly, are joined, and we all regularly learn academics.
Life itself is amazingly easy. We all serve the Kuyuan family. Locks come out and reward you according to your work.
All items such as wood vinegar liquid and frozen tofu and cold weather belong to the Lord, but the number and quality of the products reward him. Everyone sticks up and works hard.
"Uncle Yuansan! Oh my god!!
Earlier I wrote a report that I would send to my lord, but the young men ran in with a change of blood phase. Are you here as a burglar?
"Shh... shh..."
"What. What happened!?
I'm trying to say something, but he's so surprised that the words aren't coming out. What? Even the dead are out!?
"Shh... Shiitake is growing!!
"Oh, my God!!
The young man finally uttered his words as he stood up with strength on his recently weakened ankle.
I tried to make shiitake mushrooms here with my lord's life, but didn't I make them so fast!?
Shiitake mushrooms are expensive and hard to see even if you live in the mountains. The more it dries and sells, the higher the price.
"Oh my..."
Forget the years. I will go to the place where I tried to make shiitake mushrooms with the young people. A long time ago, we dried the trees that were cut as logging, and they were cut and lined up at a certain length.
There did grow shiitake mushrooms there. Still small but definitely a shiitake mushroom.
"Give the Lord the news at once!
Shiitake mushrooms are one of the commonly sold products of the Kuyuan family. The petition certificate temple in Nagashima and others will buy it for a high price. The mountain village would be cheap if this could be made.
Nevertheless, I am not only happy. We must be vigilant so that other countries do not notice this.
In an effort to discover the secrets of Kuyuan's house, there are other people here. We need to reinforce security.
Later, gold liquor and coins arrived from the hall as a reward, and everyone in the village celebrated.
Without the harvest here, we will not starve, but then I am sorry. The Lord wants to make life easier for those who live in the mountains in the future.
I'm more than happy to help.
We cannot help but hope that one day there will come a day when the people who dwell in the mountains of Japan will not starve.
For that I intend to do my best until this life is exhausted.
Side: a long time ago
In Ozhang, the rice mowing began. The civilian population doesn't even say Death March, but it hasn't changed the businessmanship this year, and some of our ministers have returned to help their parents and relatives.
Speaking of which, in Chingzhou Castle, the temple boy is asked to help with the civilian work. It focuses on people who didn't embezzle the celebration during Nobunaga's wedding.
I do not want to involve religion in politics, but in the present situation that is only an impossible idealism. Well, where Temple Shrine is also unwilling to antagonize with Oda, headed by Wish Certificate Temple, you want to actively interact with Oda to show its presence.
Not that I have any problems at all, but Elle said it was acceptable.
"Two thousand."
"We haven't had the level and scale yet, but we do have a certain role to play"
The guards finally exceeded two thousand. You reported it to me, Ceres. Damn, they said it wouldn't be enough if I hadn't increased it yet.
Nevertheless, two thousand professional soldiers will be a valuable force for Oda in the future. They are both police and military.
It's nothing. It's not our soldier. Almost from the practice when the guards started, Julia and Ceres train them and direct them as they are. I'm officially in charge of Shinsu and Nobunaga. It has essentially become our soldier.
They also have voices in the house to be vigilant about that. We can also say that the situation is certainly not a good one, with soldiers from the main parts of Shimoe Ozawa County: Tsingzhou, Naguno, Tsushima, Hotfields, and Krabs River, mostly our children. This will be a challenge for the future.
It is not uncommon for an overpowered minister to be killed or crushed.
Nobunaga and Nobunaga don't care at all. As far as Shinsu is concerned, she made Julia a swordsmanship guide for the Oda family because of one of Tsukahara's cases.
"How much do you need?
"Looking ahead, I want at least five thousand. Border guards and wide-area guards aren't enough to create either."
For a large percentage of Julia's martial arts instruction, Ceres is in charge of running the guards as things stand.
I leave the fine differences to you, but the creation of a border guard to guard the border and a wide area guard to guard the entire Oda territory is being consulted with the addition of me and Elle, who are also preparing for the creation with the permission of Shinsu.
I can't even be as tough as I was during the Edo period of historical facts, but it's time for border security, isn't it? The flow of people needs to be understood. Even as things stand, we secretly grasp it with reconnaissance satellites and bug-type reconnaissance aircraft, but it's time to stand out and grasp it.
Wide area guards were needed with runaways from other countries partly connected to a deterioration in security. Some residents may become burglars and steal, or vice versa, steal money and luggage by targeting them.
Most of all, the territory of the Chinese people in this era is a kind of independent territory, and the Oda family is not free to do so. The turning point was that Shinsu, who learned about Hojo's public pardon decree, ordered consideration of similar reforms, while at the same time deciding to create a wide-area guard?
"I had extra people. When I was just here."
"Many people are not available. Because we exclude people who demand status from the family, etc."
When we came to Oozhong, there were quite a few people in town who didn't have time for anything.
I almost stopped looking at people like that these days. It's not just the instructor. I'm understaffed at all kinds of jobs because the money's spinning around.
Yet they also have many talent that they can't use as Ceres Sayid Guards. I guess I would have to educate and correct it, but now I can't afford to relax and do that.
"I was still there. Such a person."
"It's as much as it takes. Many people from other countries falsify their identity for the time being, and that's more or less the case after two or three men, such as the Chinese people."
As a matter of fact, it's the children of the Chinese people who are free in Ozhang, isn't it? There are many people who are free after the two men besides the Lord and the Son and the Uncle, but they cannot go to the service, and because they are weirdly bound by their status and status, they cannot be used as guards.
If you can do academics, you have the option of a civilian, but a civilian is ridiculed. These are the times.
Shinsu gave me permission to throw it away if I can't use it a long time ago.
I don't think anyone who looks great and becomes an official needs a guard. I thought the Oda family had lost their power recently.
"I don't know what to do. The people."
"If it's a war, you can put it together and use it as a soldier. I can't trust soldiers because they're not like us."
"You're going to be a little pathetic. No matter how hard you try with your own personal force, it won't be easy to reward you for anything other than money, and you won't be able to make it."
It's people who have trouble handling it, but Ceres is amazed when he says he should just be a soldier in battle. That means I'll use it crushed on the front line, right? Sure, if you're a soldier on the front line, you can just keep your arm up.
However, since the current state of Oda means that governance aims to govern, it will not be left to those who cannot govern no matter how many handles they cite.
Except if you're as skilled as Mr. Ishikusai.
Yes, yes, Ishiyakusai is doing well with more locks. He was active in the Battle of Mino and will do anything from escorting to helping the guards.
We will need a little more time to reform the consciousness of the Chinese people.
It is also one of the reasons why we cannot fight Imawa.
