Fortunately, he doesn't care about this. If he doesn't obey, he will train slowly. If there are followers of the Yiyi Sect, they will be sent to Katada under the control of Miaoyun Temple for religious reform. These training issues are left to Yamamoto Kansuke. He only needs to coordinate the overall situation. That’s it.
Qianwu's business has always been good, but recently there has been an incident where some businessmen with bad intentions used inferior iron coins to exchange for Yongle money. However, Qianwu handled the matter very quickly and immediately killed the eighteen generations of those merchants' ancestors. As a result, it was found that he was a businessman from Kyushu. Of course, this kind of businessman who does not know how to promote should be severely punished. Other than that, there were no other problems. The income was also rising steadily. In the Gyeonggi area, the Kira family monopolized it. But there are still businesses like Qianwu opening outside Gyeonggi Province.
For example, the Miyoshi family is using its own financial resources to do the same thing. Kishiwada Castle and Sakai Town in Izumi Province, Katsuri Castle in Awa, and Utatsu Port in Sanuki are all doing this kind of business. He named this business Santiya. , Matsunaga Hide, the senior minister of the Miyoshi family, is in charge of the third house business in Kinki, and Shinohara Nagafusa, the senior minister of the Miyoshi family, is in charge of the third house business in Shikoku.
However, the Sanhao family did not have a stable source of Yongle money and lacked reserves of silver and gold. Therefore, Sanhuo Tongdui often failed to redeem the coins needed by merchants. Sanhao Changqing insisted on extracting working capital from Santaiwu, and no matter what Neither Matsunagahide nor Shinohara Chofusa was very interested in this business. Matsunagahide was busy following Miyoshi Nagakei and trying to seize power, which also made the Santaiya business half-dead, which was worse than the Kira family's money house. Too much difference.
The merchants of the Kira family contacted the merchants of Ikuno Ginzan and Iwami Ginzan and purchased some low-quality crude silver ore mined by them at low prices. They then transported it to Wakasa Bay by waterway and then transferred to a horse-drawn carriage to Obama. Cross Lake Biwa and come to Sakamoto for crude ore smelting. Use the Nanban blow to extract silver, copper, lead and other heavy metals and make a profit from them.
This business was handed over to Soga Taibei. His eldest son Soga and Hebei were responsible for the forging of swords and armors. The Kira family's armors were supplemented with thin iron plates on the breastplates, hand armors, leg armors, and skirt armors. There are also iron pieces inlaid, and the iron ingots come from the Izumo Nizi family. This family made its fortune from iron ore mining. Nizi Haruhisa is expanding crazily. With continued financial support, the Kira family used Yongle money to purchase iron ingots in large quantities, and for a while it became Izumo. Nizi’s largest customer.
It is impossible to arm an army without iron tools, and the forging of iron tools requires the forging of excellent craftsmen. Soga and Hebei, who are proficient in longship sword craftsmanship, are excellent candidates for the blacksmith house. He is not only good at making swords and guns, but also has a certain knowledge in the making of armor. His experience, especially since the iron tool kit weighs more than ten kilograms when put together, requires a large amount of iron material to be forged, which is very suitable for his new batch of apprentices.
The recasting of Yongle coins that Soga Heibei is responsible for still maintains extremely high efficiency. The output of Yongle coins is 500 kuans per day, deducting 40% of the copper materials, 60% of the lead materials, and manual costs. There are still 350 kuans of pure coins. Although the profit is very profitable, some problems are still found in the smelting and casting process.
The first is smoke pollution, and the second is the need for a large amount of wood in the recasting process. Excessive demand has forced severe logging of vegetation in Omi. Although it has not yet reached the point of destroying the ecological environment, surrounding townspeople have begun to complain, which makes the monks very upset. Headache.
In order to control this situation, Kiragi strictly prohibits cutting down trees in mountains, forests and rivers, and forests in plains can only be cut down selectively. Bamboo forests are allowed to be cut down, because fast-growing bamboo forests can become timber in one year, but perennial ancient trees are not allowed to be cut down.
In addition, he also summoned the followers and put the use of biogas on the agenda.
In fact, the biogas method is basically similar to the high-temperature composting method. Dig a closed cellar, build it with bricks and stones, and build a wellhead. Then bury a pottery pipe with fishing lines, then apply Sanhe soil and put it into a fire source for burning. After the Sanhe soil is hardened,
After it is hardened, all kinds of animal feces, dead branches and leaves are thrown in, and then the exit is sealed with a stone slab to allow it to ferment and mature on its own.
The high temperature will kill the bacteria and insect eggs inside, and then the biogas generated will be guided to the smelting workshop through the pre-embedded ceramic pipes, and the biogas in the ceramic pipes will be ignited through the steel valves made by Suga Heibei.
In order to prevent backfire and biogas leakage and explosion problems, the ceramic pipes are made very thick and bulky, and the inside and outside of the pipes are glazed. Several anti-backfire valves are installed in the pipes, and each pipe is required to
Every time it is used, several people need to operate at the same time to prevent backfire.
In order to prevent the pipeline from leaking, he also specially used the method of burning cement to produce some inferior cement. He used a layer of cement, a layer of Sanhe soil, and then a layer of cement to seal it. Speaking of which, this inferior cement is really unreliable.
, which is much worse than other three-component clay, so he can only use it reluctantly. Unfortunately, the production cost is too high, and the cement kiln dust is very strong. He only plans to use a little bit in biogas digesters with strict sealing requirements.
The valve is actually a simple screw application. In this era, European watchmakers can already make accurate mechanical clocks. They only need to be wound up to accurately swing time and make a ticking clock sound. Compared with this, a small
A small valve is nothing at all. At least it does not require a bean-sized gear. It just installs a metal ball in the valve and drills a small hole. The rotating handle can control the opening of the small hole and switch it on and off to control biogas.
The role of input.
By the time he was done with this, Nagao Kagetora's Kamiro team had already arrived at Sakamoto. Surprisingly, he did not stay in Sakamoto Castle for long and left Sakamoto Castle soon after landing. However, Nagao Kagetora still sent an envoy to express his wishes.
I met Kira Yoshitoki a few days ago. He had to rush to Kyoto to deal with the public relations issues between the imperial court and the shogunate. Kira Yoshitoki also expressed his understanding of this.
In early October, it was reported in Kyoto that the imperial court had appointed Nagao Kagetora as the fifth post of Shobi Shobi. The shogunate also officially appointed Nagao Kagetora as the guardian of Echigo, allowing him to use white loose bags, felt saddle coverings, and paint.
Ashikaga Yoshitō was very happy about his arrival and called him the Tiger General of the Eastern Kingdom.
Nagao Kagetora then had many contacts with ministers and samurai families in Kyoto. He frequently participated in waka and tea parties, and also consulted two contemporary waka masters, Sanjo Nishikōjo and Saionji Kojo, Kira Yoshitokiya, on issues of Sinology and kata.
He was invited by the shogunate to attend a singing concert in Kyoto, but neither party had any contact in public.
The recent actions of the Konoe family are a bit strange. A few days ago, when Konoe Haruji was a guest at Nijo Imperial Palace, he received some news and left in a hurry, forgetting to even say hello. Such rude behavior was beyond Ashikaga's expectations.
Yoshitoshi and Kira Yoshitoshi's expectations.
In the evening of the same day at the Nijo Imperial Palace, Chief Hattori came over to report: "Master, there seems to be something wrong with the Konoe family."
"Problem? What problems can the Konoe family have?" Kira Yoshitsugu asked doubtfully.
"It's about the princess of the Konoe family." Hattori said in a low voice: "Princess Zetsuhime seems to have been in poor health..."
After an investigation by Hattori Bouchou, it was learned that Zetsuhime of the Konoe family was a very beautiful girl. Jue means stunning. What does this Zetsuhime look like? Hattori Bouchou specially asked someone to draw a portrait. Although the portrait
It's okay to be simple, but it basically shows that this is a girl with 100% shaved eyebrows. No one knows how beautiful she is.
The next news made Kiragi Toki even more troubled. This Konoe princess has been lingering on the bed all year round. Whenever she recovers, she likes to participate in Waka clubs among noble ladies, and she writes illustrations, paintings, Waka songs, or studies The Tale of Genji.
Japan, especially recently, Konoe Zetsuhime has become ill again, and Naoze Michizan has been invited to treat her.
This made it even more difficult for him. The Konoe family didn't tell him about this, obviously because they didn't want him to know that his fiancée was a sick man. Ashikaga Yoshito, the son-in-law of the Konoe family, had deliberately reminded him that Konoe
The princess was not in good health, and she couldn't tell the specific situation without seeing her in person. Kira Yoshiki felt that it was necessary to find time to discuss this issue with Konoe Haritsugu.
On the morning of October 16th, Kira Yoshihi went to Miaoshin Temple with a large group of followers. Today, on the day of the Miaoshin Temple Dharma Assembly, Xian Xuanmi will also publicly lecture on Zen. As a believer of Miaoshin Temple, of course he must
In addition, Huzai Zongyi gave a public lecture on Zen for the first time, as a young monk with whom I have had frequent contact over the past few years.
The master of the teachings of Kozai Sect Yi is the Tatou Daishinin Xi'an Xuanmi of Miaoshin Temple. He is an eminent monk appointed by the former abbot of Miaoshin Temple, Mingshu Qingjun. He is determined to become the abbot of Miaoshin Temple in the future.
, so Toraya Souichi has a very high status in Myoshinji Temple. Although he is only Kian Xuanmi's young apprentice, he cannot withstand the support of Kira Yoshitoki. Within a few years, he can show up at official occasions in Myoshinji Temple.
It is also a rare opportunity.
This Dharma conference was very successful. Even Kuaichuan Shaoxi, the abbot of Miaoyun Temple, was invited to give a speech.
The short story is full of fun and humor, which makes people indulge in it unconsciously. Of course, the performance of Tora Zai Zongyi is also good, and the characteristics of the two mentors have become a highlight among many monks.
As a result, rumors about the two great virtues of the Rinzai sect were also spread during this Dharma conference. These two great virtues refer to Xi'an Xuanmi and Kuaichuan Shaoxi. Although they are only passed down by word of mouth among believers, there are countless practices.
It is enough to show that the reputation of the two masters is extraordinary.
The ceremony lasted for two consecutive days before it ended. During this period, Kira Yoshitoki and his party stayed in the guest rooms in the temple. Kyoto was really crowded with believers. Many believers came to Myoshin Temple several days in advance. If it weren't for his special status,
, there is absolutely no chance of getting a room on the same day.
On the way back to Nijo Imperial Palace after leaving Myoshinji Temple, a group of samurai chatted and joked with each other about the little stories at the ritual ceremony. Yamaoka Tokugawa was able to imitate the expression and tone of Kaikawa Shouki vividly, making a group of young people laugh together.
At this moment, a sudden burst of rapid horse hoofbeats interrupted everyone's laughter. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
