Chapter 1345 Ching Hai's Official Service to the Sanada Family
Miyoshi Chinghai sighed, glanced at Miyoshi Isan, and said.
“The future and the past have turned into clouds and disappeared between each other.
Yi San and I are wandering duckweeds in troubled times. She said she wanted to find a paradise, so I came to follow her to look for it.
Now she said that she would follow His Majesty Sanada to create a paradise. I am also a little curious.
What is the charm of Sanada-sama that can make me, a clan girl whose heart is filled with despair, rekindle my longing for the mortal world?
Qinghai sincerely asks His Highness Sanada to allow me to stay in the Sanada family and have the honor to participate in the paradise you are going to create."
Miyoshi Kiyomi's pony scene was beautifully shot with a very high level of polish and quality, which made Nobushige Sanada elated and burst into laughter.
"Master Qinghai, don't worry, I won't treat you badly, hahaha."
It’s not that Miyoshi Sekai doesn’t know how to do sex, on the contrary, she is probably the best at doing sex among all the Hime warriors present.
After all, she is a meritorious official who followed Sanhao Changqing's rise. She can't even take pictures of horses, so how can she join the society?
The core of Eastern political philosophy is to attract the attention of leaders to oneself. Laughing, yelling and scolding are all turned into articles, which is nothing more than to increase the sense of presence and grab attention.
Social governance is not a mathematical model, and there is no set of visual evaluation criteria. Who is fishing and who is working hard? Can you tell with your eyes? Can you hear it with your ears?
In the end, it is the leader who makes the final decision.
Therefore, at all times and in all countries, personal connections and background are the most important social resources. Newcomers have just arrived and have nothing, so they have to fight for their place.
In the past, people recommended themselves, but now they are making waves. In the final analysis, it is to let the superiors pay attention to you and appreciate you.
Miyoshi Sekai, an old martial artist who has participated in the highest-level struggle of the martial arts family in the world, is certainly familiar with this method of play. She can also choose to be aloof, but she has to worry about the existence of Miyoshi Isan.
Miyoshi Isan is determined to play with the Sanada family again. Unless Miyoshi Sekai is ready to abandon her, she must continue to play according to the rules.
But if Miyoshi Kiyomi were to be an honest and conscientious screwdriver, he would probably be pissed to death by Sanada, a group of unruly wild monkeys.
Therefore, she simply commented bitterly that the Sanada family was a rabble, and directly expressed her disdain and contempt.
If Sanada Nobunshige is willing to reuse her, she can naturally show her talents. If Sanada Nobunshige is unwilling to use her, he just persuades Miyoshi Isan to run away together and become the idle cloud and wild crane that ignores the world.
This old fox is prepared with both hands. No matter if he goes crazy again with Sanada Nobushige or not, he will not lose anything. Now it seems that Sanada Nobushige is at least a big name with a tolerance for others, and he can listen to unpleasant words.
Sanada Nobunshige had never encountered such a high level of compliment in his life. He lowered his hand first and then raised it, which immediately made her smile. Miyoshi Sekai's disrespect just now was completely forgotten.
After laughing for a while, Sanada Nobushige calmed down his emotions and said seriously.
"I would like to use my position as the elder of the Sanada family and my knowledge and practice for three thousand koku. I sincerely ask Master Qinghai to serve as an official to standardize the martial law for our Sanada family and prepare for the future."
Mihao Qinghai shook his head and said calmly.
"The old and broken body is not worth three thousand dan. The chance to meet His Highness Sanada is just God's will and fate. All the poor nun needs is two meals a day and a promise."
Sanada Nobushige asked.
"What promise?"
Miyoshi Qinghai sighed.
"If one day, His Highness Sanada no longer needs me, or is troubled by my affairs, please let me and Isan go."
Miyoshi Qinghai has a layer of worry hidden in her heart. After all, she is one of the murderers of the previous generals known to the world. If her identity is exposed one day, she will die. What will Miyoshi Isan do if she is implicated?
Over the years, she has seen all the prosperity in the world. She really doesn't care about the Sanada family's three thousand koku. Just a promise is enough, let's get together and go.
Sanada Nobunaga rolled his eyes and shook his head.
"No, I cannot agree to this promise. Although I, Sanada Nobushige, are vulgar, I still understand the rules.
To be rewarded by the public is the righteousness of the Wu family. You do your best for me, and I will protect your safety. This is the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers. How can there be any reason to hide away when you are in trouble and let you go away?
I know that you and Isan must have been in some trouble recently when they came to Kanto. But it doesn't matter, just follow me, Sanada Nobushige, and I will definitely protect you.
Sisters who come from the mountains may not understand the etiquette of the Wu family as well as strangers like you, but with the mountain gods watching us from the sky, I will never break the bond between sisters.
As long as you sincerely serve the Sanada family, I will not let anyone touch you. Anyone who wants to touch our sisters should speak with swords and guns.
People in the mountains may be poorer, but they are not afraid of death when fighting."
Miyoshi Qinghai stared blankly at the serious young daimyo in front of him, not knowing whether to laugh at her youth and naivety or her bravery and bravery.
No wonder Izo Miyoshi is willing to waste time here. This is indeed something interesting about Nobushige Sanada.
Mihao Qinghai let out a long sigh and kowtowed to the ground.
"I hope you will not regret it. Your Majesty, Qinghai, pays homage to the Lord."
Sanada Nobushige was sitting on the main seat, receiving a ceremony from Ching Hai to formally confirm the relationship between monarch and minister.
The scene in which Yoshigage committed suicide for her in front of Takeda Nobunari in Yantian City that year suddenly appeared in her mind, and she laughed at herself.
"I only regret one thing in my life. As for the rest, I really don't have the right to regret it."
After saying that, she bowed slightly in return. The agreement between the two of them as king and minister was fulfilled, and then she asked impatiently.
"Master Qinghai, can you tell me what to do with these grandsons under my command? A council can make a lot of noise, and a territory of 40,000 to 50,000 people is just relying on these grandsons, which is really worrying for me."
Miyoshi Qinghai smiled.
"My lord, please be patient and calm. It is not difficult to establish the laws of the Wu family. The Wu family has been in the world for five hundred years, and the system has been enriched. Yi San and I know a lot, so we can share your worries with your lord.
However, laws are easy to establish, but difficult to follow. If everyone abides by the laws, everything will be in order. It is easy to establish rules, but difficult to follow them."
Sanada Nobushige scratched his head and said.
"What should we do?"
Miyoshi Chinghai asked.
"May I ask, my lord, what do you think you rely on to control the territory?"
"Of course it's the Sanada warriors on the left and right, and the hundred Sanada sisters outside."
"Yes, then why do you think the Hundred Sanadas are so loyal?"
Sanada Nobushige was a little confused and looked at Umino Riichi next to him. Umino Riichi listened carefully and answered.
"It's the welfare food for the Kanto Palace."
Miyoshi Qinghai nodded.
"My lord is magnanimous and generous, and treats his sisters kindly. But we all have young and old to support. We dare to ignore the arrows and move forward bravely, just because we have no worries."
As far as I know, thanks to the kindness of Tsutadoden, the Sanada family enjoys a welfare grain of ten koku of brown rice a year.
One hundred establishments are self-repairing when there is a shortage. Even if Warrior Ji dies in battle, the replacement successor will be selected from her family's blood-related heirs, right?"
Sanada Nobushige nodded.
"Generally, that's true."
Miyoshi Qinghai sighed.
"Ji Ji's warrior can only eat two dan in a year. Eight dan of brown rice is enough for the whole family to have enough food and clothing. It can also provide support for relatives, old and young. Even if he unfortunately dies in battle, his family can fill the gap.
With such kindness and kindness, the Sanada people are naturally not afraid of death, and a hundred elite warriors are enough to sweep across thousands of miles.
But Sanada's success is also a blessing, and failure is also a blessing. It is impossible for the Kanto Palace to provide more welfare food, and your development will naturally be restricted.
Improving the rules at home is only the first step. Finding new sources of income and getting rid of the financial shackles of the Kanto Palace is what you need to consider now.
If you can have money and food in one hand and a sword in the other, the samurai in your family will respect you and follow the rules, and the foundation of the Sanada family will be solid."
Umino Riichi was thoughtful and nodded silently. Sanada Nobunshige applauded and shouted.
"Good, great good. Just what I'm saying, I always feel that something is wrong with my life. It turns out it's the lack of money that's causing the trouble.
With money, I think the grandsons of Jilunzhong still dare to be unconvinced and secretly look down on me!"
Sanada Nobushige's almost perfect explosive expansion has a lot to do with the establishment of one hundred Sanada members given by Yoshihiro Shiba.
According to the tradition of the martial arts, Wanshi Territory maintains a reserve army. The reserve army is usually equipped with forty or fifty Ji warriors, more than a hundred Shiqing, but the number is only two hundred and five.
The Sanada people enjoy the benefits of the Kanto Palace, and their treatment is several levels higher than that of ordinary reserve warriors, so they naturally choose elite and brave men.
The foundation of Sanada Nobushige's career was the powerful Momohime soldier who was comparable to the Hatamoto Konoe. The annual welfare and rations cost one thousand koku. It was impossible for ordinary forces to support such elites.
But now, Sanada Nobushige controls a territory of 40,000 to 50,000 koku, and the hundreds of elite men in his hands are like pepper on the pie, which is not enough.
The Shino clan of Nishi-Agatsuma were proud of their relatives, and they were at odds with Saito's old minister of Higashi-Agatsuma. They took Minawa Castle in one fell swoop, and the Minawa clan there were even more dissatisfied with Sanada Nobushige's outsider.
Sanada Nobushige failed to obtain the jurisdiction of Nishi Ueno given by Shiba Yoshigan. He only obtained the garrison rights of Nishi Ueno by taking advantage of the fact that the Tobu believers coveted the Nishi Ueno land.
One hundred Sanada members were no longer enough, the laws at home were in chaos, and the territory was in disarray. Sanada Nobushige's development encountered a bottleneck.
Miyoshi Seikai was a high-ranking member of the samurai family who emerged from the Miyoshi Shogunate's struggle. She had a vicious vision. She could see at a glance that Sanada Nobunaga's core problem was his lack of money.
The Sanada family of one hundred people can be supported by the Kanto servants, but if they want to further develop and grow, they must establish the Sanada family's own financial resources.
Yoshigan Shiba was already angry at Sanada Nobushige's several unauthorized actions, and the senior officials of the Kanto Palace were also wary of this upstart who suddenly became prosperous.
Sanada Nobushige, who could not continue to borrow power from the Kanto Secretariat, could only rely on himself to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.
The stability of any regime always depends on money and soldiers. With money, you can raise soldiers. With soldiers, you can follow the rules of your subjects. If you don't obey the rules, you can use soldiers to make them disappear.
In ancient times, 89% of the financial expenditures of the Celestial Dynasty were related to the military, and most of them were used to raise soldiers. No matter how much the people below were greedy, they had to pay what was due. Without soldiers, there would be no political power. Without political power, say Gil.
It is precisely because of the importance of finance that Miyoshi Qinghai said that the laws of the Wu family are easy to establish, but if you want people to abide by the rules, you must first get money.
After being excited, Sanada Nobushige rubbed his head and then became sad again.
"That's the truth, but how do you get the money and food?
Although I claim to occupy a territory of 40,000 to 50,000 stones, most of it is in ravines. The locals are so poor that their whole family only has one coat. Everyone wears it when they go out, and they always run naked when going to the fields.
Even if I want to raise taxes, I can't squeeze much money out of it."
Miyoshi Chinghai said.
"I came from the Shinano Mountains. I walked all the way and saw a lot of good things in the mountains."
Umino Riichi thought for a while and asked.
"Lord Qinghai, are you talking about wood and game?
There are a lot of trees, but there are no rivers and it is difficult to transport them. There are also a lot of wild animals. You can eat them yourself, but you won’t get much money if you sell them.”
Sanada Nobushige nodded and said with a frustrated look.
"No chance."
Miyoshi Qinghai smiled.
"I'm talking about mountain delicacies, including matsutake mushrooms."
Sanada Nobushige asked curiously.
"Matsutake? That thing will rot in a day when you pull it out. Can you sell this?"
Miyoshi Qinghai shook his head and said.
"What a waste of natural resources. There are clouds in Kyoto, the fragrance is in the matsutake mushrooms, and the taste is in the turmeric mushrooms.
From ancient times to the present, matsutake mushrooms have been a delicacy favored by nobles in Kyoto. The Ashikaga shogunate cut down the forests around Yamashiro Province, and many matsutake mushrooms grew, which attracted the famous shogunate families in Kyoto.
It’s just that in recent years, with the endless wars and forests burning and withering, matsutake has become difficult to find around Kyoto. If you want the real ones, you have to go to the Iga Basin to pick them.
As the Lord said, matsutake will decay within two or three days at most after being picked. Even if a wealthy family in Kyoto has it wrapped in ice, it can only be stored for more than ten days.
Because of this, it is no longer easy to smell the fragrance of matsutake mushrooms in Kyoto."
Sanada Nobushige was very interesting to listen to at first, but in the end, he was still dying after listening to it, and he suddenly lost interest.
"Even if we use ice, it can only be stored for more than ten days. So what's the point? We can't earn the money and food."
Miyoshi Chinghai smiled and said.
“I once stayed in Sakai Port for a while and saw merchants selling matsutake mushrooms as dried products. After soaking them overnight before use, they looked as if they had just been picked. It was very interesting.
When I saw its popularity, I asked about how to make it, and now I can use it."
Sanada Nobushige gave a high-five with both hands and said happily.
"Wonderful, God helps me."
Umino Riichi took a deep look at Miyoshi Kiyomi and didn't ask any more questions.
This kind of craftsmanship in working with mountain treasures must be a survival technique that is kept secret and passed down from generation to generation. How can you tell outsiders casually? Unless it is, I dare not not say it.
Miyoshi Chinghai continued.
"My lord, you are an important minister of the Kanto Palace. This time you are going to the imperial palace to participate in the review. You can ask Tsutado-den for a favor and ask for some caravan space for Naoetsu to go to Kyoto.
Dried matsutake mushrooms are easy to store, are not prone to mildew, and do not occupy much storage space. They have little impact on the normal operation of the caravan.
Tsutado-den should be willing to give you this favor, so that the Sanada family can use the matsutake mushrooms to open up some sales in Kyoto.
In fact, it’s not just Kyoto. Echizen Ichijodani Castle is known as Little Kyoto and is also a place where nobles gather. When dried matsutake is landed at Tsuruga Port, you can find merchants to sell it, which is convenient and fast.
There are also businesses in the Kanto market in Naoetsu that buy dried matsutake mushrooms. After all, some nobles in Kanto also understand the beauty of matsutake mushrooms.”
Sanada Nobushige nodded repeatedly and smiled.
"Master Qinghai is very familiar with the business opportunities along the Hokuriku Road trade route."
