During the meal, Niba Nagahide sat in the top seat and quietly used her index finger to dip the wine on the table with the number thirteen. I was the only one who could see clearly. I nodded and wiped away the water marks on the table.

On the way home, Maeda Kyoji was still sighing, "I didn't expect that the old guy Asano Nagaka had a beautiful daughter hidden. Speaking of which, I have known him for more than ten years, and I won't introduce him to me. I'm so unfaithful and unfaithful."

I scolded, "That's an adopted daughter. Do you understand? You don't know it because Nagata Asano was also adopted.' I even doubt that Nagata Asano knew this adopted daughter named "Ningning" a month ago.

'Lord, what you mean is that Asano Nagakashi had no daughter at all before, so we all didn't know about it.' Maeda Keiji suddenly realized, 'It must be Monkey that wanted to find a wife of a good match, so he asked Asano Nagakashi to adopt the other person as his adopted daughter. It was true, that's right.' Maeda Keiji slapped his thigh, and tried too hard after drinking, and almost fell off his horse.

After returning home, I saw Nagamoto Matsuda who came to report the accounts. I looked through the land tax account book without any problems and threw it back. Seeing Nagamoto Matsuda wanted to say something but stopped, I asked, "If you have anything, just say it, don't hesitate."

Matsuda Nagamaki sighed, 'Lord, do you feel that you have forgotten to do something?'

I thought about it, ‘No, did you not give me a gift on your birthday? But you didn’t tell me. Why don’t I make up for one?’

Matsuda Nagamaki said, "The lord of the lord is over 10 years old. However, except for several hunting and outings to enjoy flowers, it seems that he has not inspected the entire lord of the lord. There are only a handful of farmers who have seen the lord in the lord in the lord. Although the lord did not expect this little field to eat, these fields are the most solid foundation under the Kudo family's big tree."

‘That’s right. If you don’t go out for a walk, people outside will be afraid that they live here with human-eating monsters.’

After the plan to go to the countryside and the people was determined, I decided to walk all over the country. The ones who accompanied Kata Furuo and Fifty Hashimoto volunteered to become a member of the company. As a guide, Matsuda Nagamori was the candidate.

In the past, due to status, the farmers who could contact me were the villages of various villages. I unknowingly brought the images of these villages into the image of farmers. But when I really saw the farmers, I was shocked, "Changsheng, you are really sure that these are farmers under my leadership, not refugees or beggars." After receiving a positive answer, I re-examined these "refugees". Most of them were wearing the most popular holes and strips of clothes in the 21st century. If summer was to be considered a fashion-leading, the problem was that it was already late autumn. Whenever the autumn wind blew, these people couldn't help but start dancing to disco.

If I had been in another place before, I would have laughed, 'It turns out that the birthplace of disco is Japan.' But now I only want one thing, that is, this winter, Mogu cannot freeze a person to death, or starve a person to death.'But Wugoro sent someone to find Maeda Geni and asked him to buy ten carts of cloth and cotton to transport it here before tonight. What is this village called?'

Mamada Nagamaki replied, 'Qimizu Village.'

‘Transport to Qingshui Village, be careful that the cloth and cotton are cheaper.’

The two flag owners ran quickly towards Qingzhou Town. Although I decided to hike around the Mogu, I still brought ten horses. This was just in case, I was able to escape in time after a dangerous situation.

Not long after waiting at the entrance of the village, the village head, Kazuto Kiyotaro, knelt in front of us, 'Mr. Kudo, Matsuda. What do you need to serve a villain?'

I asked someone to help Kiyotaro up, "It's nothing, Mogu City has been built. Now I have some time to go downstairs and you can just lead a way."

‘Hi, hi.’ Kiyotaro agreed twice, arched up and walked carefully in front of the team and shouted loudly, ‘Groupe, all come out. Taijun said, don’t kill people, don’t steal food, don’t play with the flower girl.’

There were a few people in the threshing farm in the village. When Kiyotaro heard this shout, they all ran into the house. The autumn wind was bleak, and they were carrying a few fallen leaves. At this time, I suddenly had the idea of ​​kicking Kiyotaro away.

‘Forget it, let’s go around one by one.’ I pointed to the house closest to the entrance of the village, ‘Let’s just do this one first.’

The first fortress is always the most difficult to conquer. Kiyotaro knocked on the door for a long time, but he didn't even open it even if he was coaxed or scared. I pinched my temples, 'It seems that I have to think of another way. Changsheng, the people in the village don't believe us, so why don't they even believe in the village?'

Matsuda Nagamori, 'Lord, in a sense, although the village lives in this village, it is actually ours. Every year, the village head is responsible for rent and annual payment. Those who resist taxes are also responsible for the village head. This makes the village head not trusted by people. It is not surprising that we are considered to be collecting rent by force in autumn.'

'But I remember we didn't pay the salary to the merchants, why are they so concerned about it?'

Nagamoto Matsuda, "There is no salary at this level of the sect, but the benefits you get may not be less than those low-level samurai. When paying taxes, there is a loss. For example, paying ten buckets of rice, you have to pay another bucket of rice. However, the loss usually does not reach this number, and the excess becomes the sect. This is also a disadvantage left over for hundreds of years, and it is the same everywhere."

‘So that’s it.’ It was almost noon, and Kiyotaro hadn’t asked to open a door yet, ‘Let’s have dinner first.’

Seeing his subordinates sato set up a big pot, after the water boiled, he threw the whale meat and vegetables and radish into the pot. Sakura also took out the homemade seaweed rice ball and handed it to me. I took the rice ball and took it depressedly. From the corner of my eyes, I found that several children stretched out their little heads and inhale hard after the house far away, smelling the aroma of meat floating out of the pot. I had an idea and said to Fumigoro Shida, "Cook all the whale meat we brought for three days, and then send someone to Maeda Gen to get a few trucks of whale meat."

A few brave children first got a bowl of meat, and then more children, and adults came out of their homes. The ancient ruling class was called meat eaters and vegetarians by the ruling class. It seems that it makes sense. 'It turns out that all they want is just a portion of meat.'

Looking at the fanatical atmosphere next to the big pot, Sakura quietly asked the maid Kobayun to pour her dish back into the pot. I looked at Sakura beside me, and Sakura lowered her head and said, "I suddenly remembered that in my hometown, Ueno, the people there were more miserable than here."

I comforted Ying, 'I send a lot of whale meat and whale oil every year, maybe they are eating and drinking now.'

‘Maybe.’ Sakura certainly knew that this was almost impossible. The things I sent were certainly not small, but they were only enough for Ueno’s samurai class to improve their lives every few days. As for the samurai, according to Ishikawa Gouemon, it would be nice to have a meat snack once a month. This is the situation in the future when I helped.
