The daughters of the lower class Hime samurai are short-sighted and do not understand that the beautiful life of the Shiba family Hime samurai is a huge dividend derived from the Hokurikudo trade route.
They will only think that it is the new line of samurai rejuvenation that has allowed the Shiba Kahime samurai to live a good life, and they will enthusiastically support any decision made by Yoshihiro Shiba to change the status quo of Kanhachi Province.
Strong fortresses are often breached from within.
The young girl Samurai Hime, who is sponsored by the Samurai Giri Promotion Association, will become the vanguard of the Shiba family's infiltration into the Kanhachi region. She also brings her own dry food and is willing to cheer for Shiba Giri.
This is the goal that Yiyin hopes to achieve by establishing the Wujia Yili Promotion Association.
He closely integrates the principles of the martial arts with himself, becoming an irresistible political correctness and a messenger of justice that is worshiped by the eight states girl Ji Samurai.
However, Dazang Changan is good at planning systems and can help Yiyin establish an association program that is beneficial to itself and brainwash the new generation of young Ji warriors in Guanbazhou.
Wanting to understand this, Ozo Changan was so excited that her hands trembled. This was the opportunity she had been waiting for. This Wu Family Giri Promotion Association would be the stepping stone for her to soar to the sky.
Shiba Yiyin has ambitions for the world, hoping to use the soft power of the Wu family's moral principles to influence the ideological tendencies of the descendants of the Wu family. This Wu family's moral principles promotion association will never be limited to the Guanbazhou area.
If Dazang Changan does well and satisfies Sibo Yiyin, this association will spread to the sixty-six countries in the world.
By that time, Dazang Chang'an, who established the laws for the Kanto Palace and led the way for girls from the martial arts family all over the world to study in the Shiba family, will become an extremely important figure.
Dazang Chang'an's heart was burning with thought, and he kowtowed to the ground.
"I am willing to share the worries of Jinduo Palace, and I will definitely take care of the Wu Family Giri Promotion Association properly.
It's just an association founded to finance the education of the heirs of the Wu family, and it can't currently use eight thousand dan of funds to operate."
Yiyin smiled.
“This money and food is not only used to support observation and learning, but also has other uses.
Ina Chuji, I have read the outline of water conservancy construction in the Tone River Basin you submitted, and it is very good."
Ina Chuji bowed and thanked his lord, and said.
"My Lord, this is just my little personal idea, a little unrealistic."
Yiyin smiled.
"I think the plan is feasible, but how is it unrealistic?"
Ina Chuji said solemnly.
"The middle and lower reaches of the Tone River merge with the Arakawa River and continue southward to Edo Bay, which is the actual boundary between Musashi Province and Shimo-sou Province.
Because the water source after the merger is too abundant and there are many tributaries, the rivers are diverted and flooded every year, causing serious damage to the plain fields on both sides of the lower reaches.
I went down to Kanto and traveled all over Musashi, Ueno, Shimoso, and Shimokoku, carefully pondering the flow of each river, and then I came up with the strategy I submitted to you.
The flooding in the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River is due to excess water resources. So we only need to divert the water source to control the annual rising floods in the lower reaches.
This problem can be solved by diverting the Tone River away from the junction of Ueno and Shimono Musashoshita-Shikoku so that it does not merge with the Arakawa.
Although the Watarase River and Kinugawa River in Shimono Province run through Shimotsou Province, the amount of water is insufficient to irrigate the fields on both sides of the river.
If the Tone River can be diverted into these two rivers and diverted to the main country, it can also increase the water consumption of the cultivated land along the coast and increase the yield per mu of the fields.
By doing this, the floods in Musashi Province and the poverty in Shimoso Province can be solved.
The stone height of Musashi Province is about 700,000 stone, and the stone height of Shimoso Province is about 400,000 stone. However, the two countries have been at war for many years, and the water conservancy facilities have been in disrepair for a long time. The actual stone height may only be 70%.
If we can take advantage of the Tone River diversion project and repair the water conservancy facilities in Musashi and Shimoso, the stone heights of these two countries will be greatly improved.
The Musashi Kingdom can reach one million koku, the Lower Sovereign Kingdom can reach 600,000 koku, and the total stone height in the core area of the Kanto Plain can be increased to more than 2.5 million koku, which can be called the foundation of king's dominance!"
Yiyin nodded and said.
"good."
Ina Chuji sighed.
"It's a pity that His Highness Uesugi was defeated by the Sogoku, and all our access to Musashi Shitano and the Three Kingdoms were blocked by hostile forces.
Before the roads are opened and the local military families are subdued, there is no possibility of implementation of this plan."
Yiyin smiled and said.
“His Majesty Uesugi’s use of force to conquer this road has led to a dead end, but this does not mean that the Tone River diversion project cannot continue.
After this autumn harvest, the Siba family will independently purchase a large amount of grain to supplement the needs of the Siba Zhong Fund. Naojiang Jinguan Office, as I said just now, will allocate 16,000 dan to be stored in the warehouse.
Princess Dazang, you can continue the relief work for the eight thousand stone and change the inspection area. Please make a plan for the other eight thousand stone.
Part of it was used to allow the descendants of the Yatsushu samurai family to study in the Shiba territory, and the other part was used to invest in the first phase of the Tonegawa water conservancy construction.
The Wu Family Ethics Promotion Association cannot only be responsible for studying. You must think about how to benefit the Guanbazhou Wu family and make suggestions to improve their lives.
The association is an advocate of the new line of rejuvenation of the Wu family. Peaceful development requires not only learning the advanced ideas of the Sibo family, but also improving water conservancy and helping the Wu family increase land output.
Inaji, you can help Ouzangji, you are an expert in water conservancy construction."
Ina Chuji is right.
"Tsudaden, I don't mean to shirk it, but the Tone River basin is vast and the cost of water conservancy construction is more than that of the Echigo Plain.
Eight thousand shi of food, let alone sharing the funds for education, even if all of them are invested in water conservancy construction, it will only be a drop in the bucket and not much can be done."
Ina Chuji is a real person. If water conservancy construction is good, it is good. If it is not good, it is not good. This is not propaganda and flattery. The actual annual yield per mu cannot deceive people.
At the time of the tax rebate review, the Echigo water conservancy project almost caused the Echigo Plain water conservancy plan to die midway because it took up too much money.
In the end, Yiyin came forward to negotiate with Ni Ni, extending the construction period to five years and reducing the annual investment. The water conservancy plan was reluctantly accepted by various companies.
The middle and lower reaches of the Tone River are several times larger than the Echigo Plain. To put it bluntly, eight thousand koku of grain could be dropped without even making a sound.
Ina Chuji couldn't understand, what would this little money and food be enough for?
Yiyin saw her confused look, and the smile on his face grew wider.
Ina Chuji didn't understand why, and Ozo Changan on the side came forward to explain.
"Inaki, the 16,000 koku of grain collected after autumn can only be stored in the warehouse in winter. By then, heavy snow has blocked the Echigo Mountains and cannot be transported to the Kanto Plain.
You should design it carefully first and divide the water conservancy plan for diversion of the Tone River into multiple construction phases. The first phase is designed to only require an investment of a few thousand dan, but the momentum should be as high as possible.
It would be best if some projects are launched in various places so that I can publicize the benefits of diversion of the Tone River and your compassion for improving the lives of the Kwanshu samurai family.
When the budget for the coming year is ready, we will implement it step by step according to the plan, and make every improvement possible.
This incident is the Shiba family's attempt to adopt a new line of military ethics. It is hoped that all families in Guanbazhou can sit down and develop peacefully together.
If the Tone River diversion project is done well, it is a kindness from Your Majesty. If it is not done well, there must be some villain who is hindering it, and I cannot blame Your Majesty."
Ina Chuji suddenly realized.
It turns out that it doesn't matter whether the Tonegawa diversion can be completed or not. As long as the Bank of Japan has this position and is willing to come up with this budget, it will be fine.
The Si Bo family is not taken advantage of. They will come out with some money and food to help everyone get started and draw a pie. As for whether it can succeed in the future, it depends on whether everyone is willing to follow the Si Bo family.
As long as someone is willing to cooperate with the Shiba family, Yiyin will make money. When someone comes up with people and money, won't the samurai family in the Tone River basin be controlled by Yiyin?
This is the same as Dayu's flood control. Why was Dayu's son able to become the first dynasty in ancient times, the founding king of the Xia Dynasty.
Just because water control was a big project in ancient times, it required the concentration of manpower and material resources from all the tribes on both sides of the Yellow River.
Dayu had been controlling floods for many years and had mastered these resources. Once he succeeded in controlling floods and his reputation reached its peak, it would be natural for him to establish a dynasty and become king.
Yiyin followed the wisdom of its ancestors and used the Tone River diversion project to try to concentrate the resources of the samurai family along the way into the hands of the Shiba family.
Once this matter has gained momentum, even if some wise people see something fishy, they will be helpless and dare not stop it.
Siboyi Bank is on the right track, has received destiny, and follows the trend.
Anyone who blocks the diversion of the Tone River because they don't want the samurai family along the coast to improve their lives and live a good life will be hacked to death with hatred.
Yiyin added with a smile.
"I will then go south to Sekishu and have talks with the powerful samurai in the basins related to the Tone River.
Controlling floods and increasing production is a great thing that concerns the interests of all the Wu family. I will visit the local village servants one by one, hoping to gain their understanding and support."
Ozo Changan looked at Yoshigan with admiration. The Lord is really a man with great ambitions and perseverance. As long as he is willing to visit the villages in the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River, it is really possible to change the course of the Tone River.
As the heaven goes, the people are the most valuable, the country is the second most important, and the king is the least important. The people mentioned in ancient books are not all citizens of the country in the industrial age.
In the ancient Celestial Dynasty, the monarch's power did not go to the countryside. The county was governed by a patriarchal system, and the village sages headed by the three elders of the countryside sat in the ancestral hall and educated the people. The people here, the people here, were actually the landlords.
In the eyes of those with power in the upper class, Guizhou Province is not considered a citizen, it is just an animal. In the Wu family society, the village servants are the common people of the Wu family, the people of the Wu family, and the untouchable village women are also animals.
Yoshigoshi carries the royal white flag of Hachiman Tainiang, and is the closest to the ancestors of the gods in the land of Kanhachi Province with noble blood. The lower the class of Ji Samurai, the more conservative they are in superstitious lineage and worship their ancestors.
If he is willing to go to the countryside and talk to those local servants who only own a thousand or even a hundred stones of territory, then it will be a dimensionality reduction attack.
Although the Ji warriors in the village are stupid, they still understand the principle that water conservancy construction is conducive to farming.
The local nobles may not be willing to accept the Tonegawa diversion project of Shiba Yoshigan, which would shake their power base, but the middle- and lower-class Hime warriors are not so careful.
After all, to whom should we pay food and not pay? Paying taxes and labor is unavoidable anyway. Paying money to hire people to carry out water conservancy projects is more attractive to the lower class than mobilizing manpower and material resources to help the daimyo fight in wars.
The former fueled the daimyo's strength and ambition, while the latter was the extra food in his own fields. The local servants were not stupid, so they could naturally tell which was better and which was worse.
On the one hand, the Wujia Yili Promotion Association helps the children of the local servants in the village to go out to see the world and clean their brains. On the other hand, it helps the local servants to rebuild the water conservancy construction that has been in disrepair and increase the yield per mu.
After several years of subtle construction, when the Shiba family's new line of rejuvenation of the samurai family has taken root in the hearts of the people, which famous name in Guanbazhou dares to challenge Shiba Yiyin?
When the time comes to raise the troops to fight, if Shiba Yiyin stands in front of the battle with one person and one flag, the enemy's middle- and lower-level warriors will cut off the head of the general and surrender on his own initiative.
Whether you are close or not, the benefits will be divided.
Of course, the weapon of criticism cannot replace the weapon of criticism. But for conflicts within the ruling group, it is impossible to rely solely on force.
The most important thing when being a ruler is to figure out who your base is and who you need to win over the most.
There is a cloud in the sky: you can conquer the world on horseback, but you cannot rule the world on horseback.
Suppression by force is not a panacea. To form a long-term and stable rule, we must unify our thoughts from the top down and recognize the order from the bottom up.
The new line of rejuvenation of the samurai family will become the most powerful ideological weapon in Yiyin's hands to unite the middle and lower class samurai warriors, who have the largest number of samurai classes.
As long as it masters this weapon of righteousness, Yoshigan can suppress the important ministers under his command internally and fight against Oda Nobunaga's centralized reforms externally.
Yiyin and Dazo Changan, Ina Chuji were discussing and communicating with each other about the specific affairs of the Samurai Giri Promotion Association, but Okuma Chaohide beside him was sitting on pins and needles, becoming more and more uneasy.
Some people are born in Rome, while others are born as cows and horses.
A cow like Ohuma Asohide, even if Takeyong can stand up to Nobutsuna Kamiizumi, and manage the internal affairs with Yoshigan's approval, is just a cow and horse of some value.
As the saying goes, if you learn civil and martial arts, you will sell them to the emperor's family. The martial arts family has a strict social class, and there are not many opportunities to get ahead.
Daxiong Chaoxiu's wealth is all a gift from Yiyin. Without Yiyin's support, she would be a miserable person who would always be bullied.
But even though she is in a high position today, she is just a working cow in Rome. She only accidentally came in because her ability was noticed by Yiyin.
Yoshigan was born in the Ashikaga sect and was the legitimate son of one of the three leaders, the Shiba clan. And who was Ohkuma Asahide?
Tokugawa Ieyasu was obsessed with changing the Miao character, insisting on climbing into the Genji family, and even disowned his own ancestors. Why?
Who doesn’t want to live in Rome? Who wants to be kicked out of Rome after the value is exhausted?
Daxiong Chaoxiu, a tool person, is now facing the embarrassing situation of being ignored by her master. The person who can replace her is having a heated discussion with the master right in front of her.
Daxiong Chaoxiu, who had been somewhat complacent because of the smooth sailing of the past two years, was sweating profusely and deeply regretted his impulse.
She hates Terutora Uesugi and does not want to see the Uesugi and Shiba families continue to cooperate for a long time.
But she was even more afraid of being abandoned by Yiyin and falling back into the same miserable state where the sky was not responding and the earth was not working.
