Chapter 2102 The Takada family successfully transformed
Yiyin rubbed his waist and couldn't feel the tingling pain, so he stepped onto the stairs again.
Sure enough, after walking not far, we could clearly see the appearance of the torii gate. It had obviously been newly painted with a bright red paint.
After passing through the torii gate and walking up the shrine, I saw two bronze foxes sitting in front of the gate of the gate from a distance. Yoshigami pointed at the bronze foxes and said with a smile.
"Aren't these two little foxes, Harano Yukino?"
Yang Nai covered her mouth and chuckled.
"In this shrine, I have placed many bronze statues of foxes, enough for the saint to arrange the vixens in his heart one by one."
Yiyin shook his head, Yang Nai's jealousy has not faded after so many years.
The island country has believed that foxes have spiritual energy since ancient times. The shrines place fox statues with keys, rice, spiritual jade and other objects in their mouths, which indicate various good wishes such as fulfillment of wishes and good harvest.
But there are not many people who are as careless as Takada Yono and dare to place a bronze fox statue at the door.
Nowadays, in troubled times, bandits are rampant. What is the difference between placing copper in front of your house and opening the door to welcome the robbers? Do you want others to come and rob you?
That is to say, Takada Harano spent ten years in Sakai Port amassing money and dispersing it, and developed a flamboyant personality that loves to show off his wealth. I am afraid he will never change it in this life.
But Yoshigan is not worried about the safety of the shrine, because the Shinsengumi under Yukino and the cold-blooded Mibu wolves have all been reorganized into the Divine Guards.
If any thieves dare to threaten the safety of the Shinto Shinto shrine, these Mibu wolves will kill the thieves' entire family in the world.
We are not afraid of religious fanaticism, but we are afraid that religions are rich and powerful, and no one can afford to offend them.
Walking to the main hall, Yoshigan looked up and looked at the magnificent statue of Bishamonten, and couldn't help but gasp.
He can be regarded as the most powerful ruler in the island country, but when it comes to spending money to show off his wealth, compared to Takada Haruno, he is just a country bumpkin.
Yiyin looked back at Yangno and asked lightly.
"Didn't it mean that the Takada family has focused wholeheartedly on the Shinto cause and no longer does business? Where did you get so much money?"
Yang Nai smiled slightly.
"The Takada family no longer engages in business, and has donated all the properties owned by the Takada family to the New Shinto religion to enshrine Bishamonten.
The current funds to maintain the operation of academic affairs come from the dividends from the Takada family's donated property, and from donations from other samurai families on the other hand.
In addition, out of their loyal belief in Bishamonten, the five major worshipers have given certain policy preferences, which has reduced a lot of trouble in the establishment and maintenance of shrines in various places."
Yoshigami shook his head, he just took carrots and didn't worry too much. How could Takada Yono, an old businessman, let himself be caught? He must have done everything so that he had nothing to say.
Although the Takada family has separated from the business circle, the Shinto church has religious properties, and of course the money that should be earned must be earned.
No matter how poor we are, we cannot afford to be poor in teaching affairs, and no matter how miserable we are, we cannot be miserable for the gods.
Although the former Takada Harano had a Shiba family background, to put it bluntly, he was a government-run businessman.
To the samurai who valued military merit, Takada Haruno was just a lucky minister beside the saint. Even if they had achieved success in business, the Hime warriors still looked down on Takada Haruno in their bones.
But now, the situation is very different.
It is said in the Heavenly Dynasty that the great events of the country are carried out by military service and sacrifice.
For a feudal regime, the most important thing is military and sacrifice, both of which are the most important cornerstones for maintaining a regime.
The Takada family focused on New Shintoism and took up the cultural propaganda position of the Shibagami group. This was an important tool to unite the ruling class and safeguard theocratic power.
Therefore, Takada Yono's business activities in the name of maintaining the operation of New Shintoism will be subconsciously assisted by the Shiba regime.
How could Takada Yono be so famous in the past? He could get the full support of the five major followers and get twice the result with half the effort in everything he did.
So when it comes to high-end gameplay, don’t talk about money. Talking about money is vulgar. If you want to talk about it, talk about patriotism.
Yi Gin shook his head and could only sigh that the Takada family knew how to play, but the level now is different.
The Takada sisters were leading people there to worship Bishamonten, but Yoshigan couldn't worship him on his own, so he waited aside to watch them bow devoutly.
Afterwards, the Takada sisters led Yi Gin to the side hall and repelled the people around him.
Yi Gin took a sip of the shrine's tea and said.
“The Inari Taisha Shrine has been restored very well, you guys are very diligent.”
Takada Yono smiled.
"Kyoto is a gathering of humanities, and the branch here is also the site of the Shinto shrine gate second only to the main gate of Tamonyama Castle. How dare I not be interested in it."
Yiyin sighed and asked.
"Tell me, what happened again?"
Yang Nai was stunned and asked with a smile.
"Why did the saint say this?"
Yiyin scoffed.
"You came here to torment me all night yesterday, and then you brought me to the shrine early this morning. You made my bones fall apart, and you said you had no intention?
Okay, tell the truth.
There is nothing to hide about the relationship between the three of us. Whatever happens, I will not turn to you sisters.
Also, next time you come, remember to bring your children with you. You will know what you are busy with all day long. Who is in charge of spring things and who is taking care of them?
She is only one year old and needs her mother's care. When mother and daughter become estranged in the future and she stops kissing you, I see how you will regret it."
Yang Nai's face became hot after being complained by Yi Yin, and he said aggrievedly.
"I am doing it for the great cause of the saint, and also for the future of Chunwu..."
Yiyin sighed.
"I know it's not easy for you, forget it, I was the one who said it too harshly.
Haruno is still young and can’t travel long distances, so I’ll go to Sakai Port to see her when I have time.”
After saying a few words of comfort to Yang Nao, Yoshiyin turned to Yukino with a question.
Yukino said calmly.
"Some people are so annoying. I want to kill them, but my sister won't let them."
Yiyin took a breath, his teeth started to hurt again, and he sighed helplessly.
"What happened again? Who provoked you again?"
Yukino glanced at her sister and Yangno sighed.
"The sudden rise of the new Shinto religion and my intention to enter Kyoto have already caused uneasiness among various Buddhist sects."
Yiyin nodded.
"This is normal."
A society, a group of people, must have various ecological niches. Some people are responsible for the noble, and some are responsible for the humble. Even thieves are indispensable.
If all thieves are forcibly caught and thrown out of the group, then new thieves will appear in the group soon to occupy this ecological niche.
In order to completely eradicate the influence of the emperor's court, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu completely destroyed Shintoism, which was closely related to the emperor.
Originally, the culture of the island nation consisted of Shintoism and Buddhism competing against each other, restricting and learning from each other. For example, the Hachiman Bodhisattva is a fusion of the island nation’s Hachiman deity and Buddhist theory.
However, due to the violent demolition of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the various religious sects completely took over the ecological niche of the island country's culture, and they could be said to be the dominant one for two hundred years.
The Takada sisters are cheering for the revival of Shintoism in support of Shiba Yigen. In fact, they are robbing Buddhism of its cultural position and right of religious interpretation.
This is a death sentence for various Buddhist sects, so it is strange that the nuns did not react violently.
