Edo Traveler

Vol 5 Chapter 8: Brother takes office

In the New Year of 1845, nothing major happened. The snow in Kanto was pretty good this year. The winter wheat planted should have a good harvest. However, the harvest outside does not affect Edo Castle.

   Inside and outside Edo Castle are two worlds!

   Thousands of feudal servants put together by the feudal lords, as well as specially recruited fortification craftsmen, began the reconstruction of the Edo Castle, which did not exist in history.

   Now Mizuno Tadakuni probably loses his previous thoughts, and he is devoted to securing his power and fighting the guys who had fallen into trouble before. Therefore, I was very concerned about the restoration of the Tianshu. Although the chief commander of the Tianshu construction was also held by the old man, this time Mizuno Tadakuni was purely trying to please Tokugawa Ikei in order to maintain the political power.

   More than half of the attention of the entire shogunate was on the building of the castle. By building the castle, Mizuno can consolidate and gain power. Naturally, other people can think of ways to make Mizuno lose power. The Tianshu in front of him was the stage where the upper shogunate played games in the past two years.

   It has something to do with Chuemon Gate...

   When will the remaining 750,000 Shimadzu family be solved?

This is a sentence that Tokugawa Ieki and Mizuno Tadakuni must ask every time they see Tadaoemon. Although they are buying materials and recruiting staff now, the two hundred and fifty thousand for the down payment is enough, but who doesn’t think they can do it themselves. How much money is there? Moreover, if a feudal official doesn't have the ability to dismantle things and make up for things, he can be regarded as a fart feudal bureaucrat.

   Tademon can only answer that I try my best to urge, try my best to urge, and I will definitely let him give the money. After saying this, Tokugawa Ieki and Mizuno Tadakuni's eyes were like, "You kid, don't you hurry up?" Don't dangle in front of my eyes. I don't need you as a messenger here. It's a serious matter to ask for money.

   嘞!

   Hello, please!

  Tadaemon’s annual paid small holiday has begun!

   Hirogo had long entrusted seven hundred and fifty thousand taels to Satsuma's royal merchants to transfer and deposit them into two replacement houses in Osaka. The bills are all on the body of Zhongfu Zhongjiao. When you need to use it, you can pick it up directly with the ticket. No, it's 780,000, because there are still 30,000 from Chuemon, but Chuemon didn't want to get it.

  According to Zhongfu Zhongjiao, you have no money to spend anyway, so it's better to have two alternative houses. These wealthy merchants who operate in industries such as two-for-one housing, fan-za, rice bills, and loan sharks can give you interest ranging from one cent to one-fifth a year. You just save it there, and you can get 3,200 to 4,500 interest income throughout the year without taking any risks.

   Ordinary people may have to worry about some risks or other things, but you are a five-hundred-stone imperial surname, a character who can see the face at any time, and anyone dare to lose your money? Merchants are a low-level business these days. If they say that they kill your whole family, they will kill your whole family. They won't tell you any truth.

What    said was very reasonable, so Chuemon was not going to withdraw the money anymore, he deposited it directly with them, and agreed on a one-cent interest, which was fixed deposit and withdrawal.

   Seeing that people are busy, Chuemon was very happy at first when he was idle. After more than ten days of idleness, he felt suffocated at home, so I thought I would go to the construction site to take a look. The remnant snow on the construction site has long since melted away, and the foundations and stone walls do not need to be recast, they are all ready-made.

   A group of great workers are measuring the area and checking the stone wall at the same time. If there is a place that needs to be repaired, they will send someone to repair it. Anyway, labor is free. According to Mizuno, it means to use it hard. Don't give the princes a face.

   are all samurai, and they can be equipped with knives on the street. Five people and six people cross the street. On the construction site, they become coolies that are yelled at will. Think about it, the lower-level samurai of this group of feudal vassals are really miserable, just like the feudal lord's cattle and horses. Encountered a kind lord, and he was able to get enough to go to work. It would be miserable if you run into someone who is not something and takes care of all three meals a day.

   嗐, it is not something we can manage. The shogunate wanted to suppress all other vassals, except for the Shimadzu clan who paid the money. Most of the remaining samurai who lived in Edo had fallen blood.

   knocked on the construction site for a while, did not see any flowers, Chungemon patted his **** and prepared to go to the street for lunch. It just so happens that we can go to see our iron brother Zhuroku, and I don't know if he brings a lunch box, if he doesn't bring it, he can still rub him.

  Who called you a thousand stone big money! We all give one dish, you give a whole box!

  The Minamicho Office is just under the Edo Castle, a few steps away, and Chuemon Gate will be there just a few minutes after a horse ride. There are old acquaintances in the magistrate, and Tadaoemon struggled here, and there were people who said hello all the way.

   The fact that one million people were threaded by Chuemon before it has been revealed. Edo Castle is just a briquettes, as long as it is not a conspiracy, everything can be spread.

   Everyone knows that as long as the Shimadzu family does not have one million, Chuemon is one of the people I want to see most. Even if you don't fawn, you should interact and say hello.

   "Are you here to see Mr. Kinmaru?" A book official stepped forward to greet Chuemon.

   "Lead the way and lead the way." Zhuroku changed the office. Now I am the mayor of East Ward of Edo City. I have a different status. The office must be bigger~www.wuxiaspot.com~Please follow me. "

   The magistrate's office is just such a big place. I used to be familiar with Chuemon, but I really helped Roku to change to the large room next to the main hall. Not only was it much bigger than before, but the lighting and ventilation were much better.

   "My lord, Lord Edogawa is looking for you." The bookkeeper came forward and called the door.

   Sukeru raised his head, seeing that it was Chuemon, he closed the document in his hand and stretched out. Put the papers in the drawer, lock it and get up and go out.

   "Go, let's go eat together."

   "That boy, I am disrespectful!" Chuemon Assuke Roku smiled.

   "Walk around, Endoya is said to be making fresh green steam today."

   The so-called fresh green steaming is the first green in the new year. In fact, there are differences in the new green steaming in various parts of Japan. Shuroku is talking about eating broad beans (called empty beans in Japan), crushing broad beans into a puree, and steaming the eel at the same time, adding other seasonings to eat a fresh one.

  Edo people pursue this kind of food, and they eat whatever season comes. Chuemon doesn’t matter. They eat it afterwards, but what else do they need to eat? Let's not pay for it, right?

   The two of them went to the place to sit down, and the entourage placed them in the store to eat lunch. Of course, they ate the same, or second-class things, except that there was no presentation and tricks.

   "How are you Togumi Yuri, how are you doing?" Chuemon wiped his face and hands with a towel before he came out of the construction site.

   "Stop talking, just take office, it's going to happen!"
